The Overseas Museum is a Natural History and ethnographic museum in Bremen.

 

Opened in 1893, heavily damaged during the air raids on Bremen in WWII, reconstruction started in 1946, re-opened in 1949. It's current name is from 1951. It claims to be one of the most visited museums in Germany. The museum features permanent exhibitions relating to Asia, South Pacific/Oceania, Americas and Africa.

The Renaissance castle of Fontaine-Henry was built by the family d'Harcourt and it took nearly a hundred years to finish it (hence it's mainly a Renaissance building, finished in 1560, but it has some details that are in the Gothic style known as Flamboyant). There was actually a fortress built here already in the 11th century and in the beginning of the 13th century this was replaced by a castle (which might explain why it next to the current castle stands a very medieval chapel).

 

And yes, that is a very steep roof. Steep and high. When it was built it aimed to be the highest roof in France (not the highest building, mind you, the highest roof). It's a beautiful castle, but that is a little bit weird!

 

The castle is still owned by people who are direct descendants of the family who first started building this castle - though the surname has sometimes changed and the current owners carry the name d’Oilliamson - since it a few times was inherited by women. The house is still privately owned, but the interior can be visited on guided tours (no photography allowed, though).

According to the current theme, group members were supposed to take a photo of a pet. I thought of Trudie, even thought she isn't very fond of portraits. She arrived at our home 6 years ago.

 

Según el tema propuesto para esta semana, los miembros del grupo teníamos que tomar una foto de un animal de compañía. He pensado en Trudie, aunque no le gustan mucho los retratos. Ella llegó a nuestra casa hace ya 6 años.

Well, the result here is no mistake - but it is due to one.

 

This is the central, octagonal tower as seen from the interior of Ely cathedral. It's current look is due to a collapse to the tower structure in 1322, probably due to building works in the vicinity. The tower dated to Norman times (work on the cathedral we see today began in 1083) and the tower was not so much completely replaced as re-styled to its current, quite eye-catching Gothic look.

"Tugs have been towing aggregate-laden barges out of British Columbia’s Pitt River and on down the Fraser River since the days of wooden scows and steam-powered tugs. Since the earliest days the boats have had to contend with the railway bridge about three miles upstream from the Pitt’s confluence with the Fraser River. Over the generations, skippers have learned a lot about the tides and river currents that challenged the old steam power and continue to challenge the modern diesel-powered tugs. This is not stuff that is taught in maritime training schools. It is knowledge that is learned by making the run with an experienced captain and finally by new captains feeling their way into the job."

Ein reinrassiges, schnelles Seekajak im britischen Design. Das passige, flache Cockpit und das Unterschiff mit leichtem Kielsprung verleihen ihm eine beeindruckende Seetauglichkeit. Ein Kajak für fortgeschrittene, kleine bis mittelgroße Paddler, die einen engen Bootskontakt bevorzugen. Der CYPRESS spricht sofort auf technische Manöver an, wirkt aber dennoch nicht kippelig. Ob Brandungspaddelei oder Tour, in diesem Kajak kommen paddlerische Fähigkeiten voll zur Geltung.

 

Schnelles und wendiges Boot, hohe Endstabilität, besonders im Sturm und bei Wellengang, nichts für Anfänger und für größere Personen, da das Boot sehr schmal ist.

 

Wer mehr wissen will, kann mich gerne kontaktieren.

IORY 1 year ago looked completely different than it does now, the yellow SD60s took over quite quickly and it's definitely reduced my reasons to photograph the railroad, but sometimes you just end up doing it anyways out of boredom.

Thank you all for visits, favs and comments, it's greatly appreciated!

According to the current theme, group members were supposed to represent an adage in a photo. I chose "You've got to crack a few eggs to make an omelette", which means that if you want to achieve something, you often have to destroy something or make difficult sacrifices. I used an egg cup, a chocolate egg filled with colourful sweets and a teaspoon for the photo.

 

De acuerdo con el tema propuesto, los miembros del grupo teníamos que representar un dicho en una foto. Escogí aquel que dice que “no se puede hacer tortilla sin romper los huevos”, el cual significa que se tienen que destruir algo o hacer sacrificios difíciles para lograr algo. Para la foto, utilicé una huevera, un huevo de chocolate relleno con dulces coloridos y una cucharilla.

(Flickr Friday: #312 Give peace a chance)

According to the current theme, group members were supposed to take a photo which represents peace. I chose a poppy. This flower was adopted as the symbol of remembrance shortly after the end of the First World War. This is why it served as a pledge (at least initially) that war must never happen again.

 

De acuerdo con el tema propuesto, los miembros del grupo teníamos que tomar una foto que representase la paz. Escogí una amapola. Cuando fue adoptada como símbolo del recuerdo, la Primera Guerra Mundial había terminado hacía poco tiempo. De modo que significaba el deseo de que no volviera a estallar otra guerra.

Current

May. Rain has been pounding the Adirondacks for several days, and supersaturated the mountains. Seasonal streams have awakened, runoff and percolation feed the flow, all that water finding it’s lowest level and charging the whole Schroon ecosystem. Some miles below the dam at the lake, the river picks up speed on gradients through boulder fields, now inundated and drowned under the flow. They are immovable, their resistance invisible but for the standing waves throughout the volume. A light mist hovers above the raging current. Standing this close, I can feel the vibration of it’s power, urging my blood pressure higher to match the atmosphere I’m in. Here is spring as allegory to life, the relentless wildness of youth, bursting to race ahead towards that age when you don’t. What I wouldn’t give to truly feel that voltage again, and know the trajectory of where I was headed, instead of treading, spent, looking back at where I’ve come. I stay awhile on the edge of the surge, enjoying the power of the season.

"Folkingham is the forgotten town of the South Kesteven region of Lincolnshire. A former Anglo-Saxon royal borough, with strong associations with leading aristocratic familes right through to the twentieth century, Folkingham now lies isolated in the rolling Lincolnshire countryside. Its grand church still rises over the undulating landscape, a vestige of a lost medieval prosperity, when Folkingham was the seat of the influential Beaumont family and the region was blessed with a major monastic house, a preceptory of the Knights Templar and a fair of national importance.

The impression of Folkingham today is dominated by the Georgian market place, largely created through the patronage of the Heathcote family, who bought the manor in 1788. It is a total surprise for the traveller progressing north on the A15. This spacious market place, which is one of the larger market squares to survive in Lincolnshire, is a testimony to the importance of this former town. It is a reminder that once there were seven annual fairs held at Folkingham, as well as weekly markets. There was once a substantial castle, a town hall, sessions house, work house and prison and a gas works. But despite all this, and the patronage of aristocratic families, Folkingham has struggled to develop.

Folkingham remains today an unusual anomaly - a former town in the middle of nowhere, with around eight hundred inhabitants. But, let us not forget, Folkingham still has an important story to tell, one which is much more than its current status would suggest."

Can you guess what it is?

Currently located just outside the boundaries of Snæfellsjökull National Park, the town of Hellnar is the largest of the fishing villages on the south side of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in Iceland. It has been that way for centuries. A church was first built at this site in the village in 1833. The church in the photo was constructed in 1945.

 

I wanted to take delicate photos of the different blossoms that are currently flowering in the garden. I added a slight Cezanne filter to this photo to give it a painted look..

The current cold weather has brought more starlings into my garden. We would occasionally get two but now there are seven and they are visiting almost non-stop. This means I've finally had some opportunities to take photos of them

The current forecast says that the rain and cooler than average temperatures that we have been having here in California should be moving out of the area. Next week promises to be sunny and warmer. Our volunteer projects here at Gleanings for the Hungry are also almost completed, so it is about time for my wife and I to leave. We will have limited Internet access while traveling, so I will not be active on Flickr for a while. I am hoping to have lots of photo taking opportunities though. HGGT

This is from an Iris in our garden completed in a painterly fashion. We are doing a month of "finger exercises" fast compositions. They work well for doing note cards.

M503 is back up to speed after hanging back at Woodland Jct, waiting on a motive power plagued L375 here at Milford. The local is finally in the clear and the C&EI towards Evansville is finally open for southbound movement again. Afternoons tend to be busy on this leg of the C&EI and this 1st of December is no different. I195, M500, L375, M503 and I129 all ran in daylight between Woodland Jct and Danville.
