Dedicated in 1893, this ‘castle’ on Little Round Top is the largest regimental monument on the Gettysburg battlefield. It was designed by Daniel Butterfield, the original Colonel of the 12th New York and Meade’s Chief of Staff at Gettysburg. It stands 44 feet high and 12 feet wide, dimensions that represent the two regiments, and has a spiral staircase to a second floor observation deck. The tower, which is not open to the public, is topped by the Maltese Cross symbol of the Fifth Army Corps.
Five bronze tablets outside the monument display information about the regiments. Inside, more tablets display the muster rolls of each company and reliefs of Generals Butterfield and Francis Barlow.
The 44th New York was commanded at the Battle of Gettysburg by Colonel James C. Rice, who took over the brigade during the battle, leaving command of the regiment to Lieutenant Colonel Freeman Conner. It brought 460 men to the field, losing 26 killed, 82 wounded and 3 missing.
The 12th New York consisted of two companies, D and E, and brought 117 men to the field, suffering no casualties. It was commanded at Gettysburg by Captain Henry W. Ryder.

Small Church dedicated to St. John Gualbert.
Saint Giovanni Gualberto (c. 985 – 12 July 1073) was an Italian Roman Catholic abbot and the founder of the Vallumbrosan Order. Born into a noble family, Gualberto was a predictably vain individual who sought pleasure in vanities and romantic intrigues. When his older brother Ugo was murdered, Gualberto set out for revenge. He found the murderer in Florence, but as it was Good Friday, granted the killer's plea for mercy. Soon after Gualberto became a member of the Order of Saint Benedict though he left in order to found his own congregation. He condemned nepotism and all simoniacal actions and was known for the pureness and meekness of his faith. Even popes held him in high esteem.
Gualberto is the patron saint for foresters and also is the patron for park rangers and parks. Pope Pius XII named him - in 1951 - as the patron saint for the Italian Forest Corps while he was named as the patron for Brazilian forests in 1957.

I enjoyed all these books. I admit to still trying to get through the story of all Henry VIII 's wives !! The Kittens In The Sun is actually a book of photographs. Hey, what can I say on that one :-D
Westminster was dedicated in 1886 in the heart of downtown Grand Rapids. I took my photo on the afternoon of May 18, 2016, looking down Ransom Street NW from the north. The tall steeple gives this church a commanding presence. A brief history

I found out today that Hidden Falls is truly hidden...but that's not all that's hidden...so is the hiking trail! The rich hardwood greenery intimately accompanies on both sides of the trail supplying a rich canopy of green branches and leaves overhead. I found my entire trail experience to be shaded and peacefully reclusive. When I reached the waterfall, 1000's of flowering rhododendrons were blooming at the base. I dedicate this photo, to all of my wonderful lady photographer friends here in Flickr.
Dedicated to all those and myself, that have faced the dark tunnel and wondered, what will be waiting on the other side.
Dedicated to my neighbours - still shouting on the lower floor's balcony in the middle of the night. Love them!

Many hilltops in Portugal and other parts of Europe have been sites of religious devotion since antiquity, and it is possible that the Bom Jesus hill was one of these. However, the first indication of a chapel over the hill dates from 1373. This chapel - dedicated to the Holy Cross - was rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries. In 1629 a pilgrimage church was built dedicated to the Bom Jesus (Good Jesus), with six chapels dedicated to the Passion of Christ. The present Sanctuary started being built in 1722, under the patronage of the Archbishop of Braga, Rodrigo de Moura Telles. His coat of arms is seen over the gateway, in the beginning of the stairway. Under his direction the first stairway row, with chapels dedicated to the Via Crucis, were completed. Each chapel is decorated with terra cotta sculptures depicting the Passion of Christ. He also sponsored the next segment of stairways, which has a zigzag shape and is dedicated to the Five Senses. Each sense (Sight, Smell, Hearing, Touch, Taste) is represented by a different fountain. At the end of this stairway, a Baroque church was built around 1725 by architect Manuel Pinto Vilalobos. The works on the first chapels, stairways and church proceeded through the 18th century. In an area behind the church (the Terreiro dos Evangelistas), three octagonal chapels were built in the 1760s with statues depicting episodes that occur after the Crucifixion, like the meeting of Jesus with Mary Magdalene. The exterior design of the beautiful chapels is attributed to renowned Braga architect André Soares. Around these chapels there are four Baroque fountains with statues of the Evangelists, also dating from the 1760s.
Façade of the church of Bom Jesus. Around 1781, archbishop Gaspar de Bragança decided to complete the ensemble by adding a third segment of stairways and a new church. The third stairway also follows a zigzag pattern and is dedicated to the Three Theological Virtues: Faith, Hope and Charity, each with its fountain. The old church was demolished and a new one was built following a Neoclassic design by architect Carlos Amarante. This new church, began in 1784, had its interior decorated in the beginning of the 19th century and was consecrated in 1834. The main altarpiece is dedicated to the Crucifixion.
In the 19th century, the area around the church and stairway was expropriated and turned into a park. In 1882, to facilitate the access to the Sanctuary, the water balance Bom Jesus funicular was built linking the city of Braga to the hill. This was the first funicular to be built in the Iberian Peninsula and is still in use.

Dedicated to hb19… I know these letters represent to best of Flickr… if you have been
fortunate to receive a visit from this creative and talented “SHOOTER” you would
understand where I’m coming from… His drive is inspirational… His comments are
cherished… I don’t come close to his sky color or his signature style.
But my shot is to say…
Thank you for your friendship, “I TIP MY LENS” to this giant of a person…
TIO...
Dedicated to the greatest champion of all time : Muhammad Ali.
In the worst moments of my life, his attitude and documentaries like "When we were kings" were helping me to keep my head above water.
I wrote to my grandfather 6 months ago to tell him to fight disease with strength like Muhammad was. A few days later, he passed away.
I'm sad Muhammad Ali passed away too.
Hands-on, time for training, for boxing, for fighting.
"Fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee."
RIP Muhammad Ali.

This series is dedicated to my good friend Eric! Thanks for your support I appreciate you!
I took these photo's yesterday the first time in months actually since he was in Oregon & let me use his lens that I have taken a stroll around the neighborhood & felt like shooting anything..I took these for him...because I know he loves blue..but so many of them remind me of sunshine & hope even though the flowers look a bit sad..they seem to say..when the wind blows..& life hands you something not so pleasant to deal with..Dance & go with the flow tomorrow WILL be better than today!
So here is to being positive looking on the Sunshiney yellow & bright side of life!! :-)
This photo is dedicated to a raccoon. Yup, that's right, a raccoon. Sorry, but he/she/it/hu has no flickr link, at least that I know of. Anyway, this is another spot that I had visited on my previous trip to San Francisco, so I knew this composition was up there. What I had not realized is that they have made it slightly more difficult to scale over the fence to get to the edge of the cliff that affords this view. By they I mean the well-meaning authorities who are probably trying to keep reckless photographers from plunging over the hill and landing splat on the road below. Nonetheless, I was determined, so I ended up in this spot once more.
As I was setting up my tripod I heard a rustling behind me. At first I thought it was Aaron trying to figure out where I had disappeared to, but then I figured it was moving much too quietly in the dark of the night to be Aaron. ;-) And lo, a raccoon popped out of the brush just on the other side of the fence that my back was to, about a foot and a half behind me. At first I figured I had been sitting so still he did not realize I was there so I rustled and made a little noise to alert him to my presence, which only seemed to fire his curiosity instead and he began pressing up against the fence stretching his paw through trying to reach my open bag behind me. I chuckled a little, he was a good 8 inches short but determined anyway. He stretched and pushed for a good five or seven minutes, and I went back to photographing, the two of us taking our individual pleasures from trying to satisfy our unique curiosities.
As a side note, as is usually the case with the situations I sometimes get myself in, it was much trickier actually getting back over the fence than the initial crossing. But I managed. The raccoon had ended up trundling back over to the rest of the group it seemed, where he enjoyed their attention for several moments.
I have one more Bay Bridge... well maybe two. We shall see how much longer my interest holds. In truth it has already waned, but I am sort of forcing myself to post several of the same topic just because of the value they have seen in a group. At least I think they do. The next shot will be this same spot but taken with the Fuji 617 pano camera.
Mama, she has taught me well
Told me when I's young
Son, your life's an open book
Don't close it 'fore it's done
The brightest flame burns quickest
That's what I heard her say
A son's heart's owed to mother
But I must find my way ~ Mama Said (MetallicA)
