Maturing warehouse of the "Consorzio delle Vacche Rosse", Reggio Emilia, Italy. This is the only Parmigiano-Reggiano factory transforming exclusively, like eight centuries ago, milk from animals of the ancient "Reggiana" Red Cow breed. Due to a special variety of casein contained in this milk, the cheese is ready for tasting only after 24-48 months of ageing and is nevertheless characterized by sweet taste and delicate aroma.

EL BADI PALACE -MARRAKESH
El Badi Palace (Arabic: قصر البديع; meaning The incomparable palace) is a ruined palace located in Marrakesh, Morocco. It was commissioned by the sultan Ahmad al-Mansur of the Saadian dynasty sometime shortly after his accession in 1578. The palace's construction was funded by a substantial ransom paid by the Portuguese after the Battle of the Three Kings. It is currently a popular tourist attraction.
The palace took fifteen years to build, with construction finally completed around 1593 and was a lavish display of the best craftmanship of the Saadian period. Constructed using some of the most expensive materials of the time, including gold and onyx, the colonnades are said to be constructed from marble exchanged with Italian merchants for their equivalent weight in sugar. The original building is thought to have consisted of 360 richly decorated rooms, a courtyard (135×110 m) and a cent
The palace today is a well known tourist attraction. The complex contains a museum, with exhibits such as a restored 12th-century minbar that once stood in the Koutoubia Mosque.
For a number of years the Marrakesh Folklore Festival has taken place within the palace.
With 156 years of history and legendary tales of ghosts and spirits that only accentuate the natural energy of the property, Beardslee Castle is a perfect setting for any event.
Built by Augustus Beardslee in 1860 with the craftmanship of masons from Ireland and Switzerland, the limestone building is modelled in the style of an Irish castle. The building has suffered two major fires, the first in 1919 nearly destroyed the building and much of the stonework needed to be reworked. The oak panelled floors and ceilings were completely redone as nothing was left but the stone shell. A fire in 1989 gutted the kitchen areas and the building was left vacant for 3 years. After a two year restoration the restaurant reopend in 1994 under the present ownership. 247

The Münster Cathedral has three organs but the main one can be found in the east transept or the Johannischoir and is shown in its splendor in this photo.
The pipework’s are the craftmanship of Hans Klais and were originally installed in the Stephanschoir niche in 1956 but were later moved in 1987 to a position that showed it off in better light under the southern window in the Johannischoir.
In 2002 in order to produce a more uniform sound throughout the cathedral there was an auxiliary set of works installed in the upper chapel of the north tower and is wholly operated by the main organ.
This organ is probably to my eye the most beautiful thing in the cathedral and would have loved to hear it play but unfortunately I was there at the wrong time of day.
I took this with my D750 and Tamron SP 24-70mm 2.8 G2 Lens at 24mm 1/40s, f/5.6 ISO 800 processed in LR, Topaz Denoise, PS (Lumenzia and DXO Nik Color Efex)
