Shot near Central Park.These are the actual colors on the structure.I just enhanced them a little.I don't exactly know which street I took this shot,but between 59th and 79th streets there are many old mansions that once were owned by some of NYC elite from the 19th century.Some of them have been converted into embassies and museums.Most of the museums are strewn along 5th Avenue between 82nd and 104th streets in what is known as Museum Mile.

Cette végétation contre un mur semblait tenter très fort ce jeune cygne et en tendant fortement son cou il est parvenu à en manger sous l'oeil intéressé de son frère.

This vegetation against a wall seemed to envy this young swan and by stretching his neck he managed to eat under the interested eye of his brother.
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is an orange day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Crazy Tuesday is Car details. And since Mr. Teddy Bear is truly a car lover, he is the best for presenting this theme. Of course we celebrate Happy Teddy Bear Tuesdays at the same time, so it is a win -win situation.
Mr. Teddy Bear loves cars and he has quite a collection. No wonder he had such a hard time choosing the car for this theme. But, Mr. Teddy Bear’s Ferrari is the car with the most beautiful details for sure … So that is why, this was Mr. teddy’s choice. I must admit: even on a Ferrari toy, the details are very well made … I absolutely love the stylish star shaped details on the wheels… ant during moments like this, I ask myself : would I drive more often if I had a Ferrari ?? Maybe, if I get a Ferrari as a Christmas gift I will become a car lover ?? But those kind of questions disappear very quickly from my mind… I still hate driving and I don’t think there is a car in this world which will make me love driving… Except if it comes with a private driver or maybe if it is a self driving car…
Have a beautiful day ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!

Details from a fence surrounding the beautiful Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood, in St. Petersburg, Russia. “The Church of the Savior on Spilled Blood (Russian: Церковь Спаса на Крови, Tserkovʹ Spasa na Krovi)[a] is a former Russian Orthodox church in Saint Petersburg, Russia which currently functions as a secular museum. The structure was constructed between 1883 and 1907. It is one of Saint Petersburg's major attractions. The church was erected on the site where political nihilists assassinated Emperor Alexander II in March 1881. The church was funded by the Romanov imperial family in honor of Alexander II, and the suffix "on [Spilled] Blood" refers to his assassination.”

Qinglong Mine, Qinglong, Qianxi'nan Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou, Southwest Region, China.
Cyanotrichite is a secondary mineral of the oxidation zone of copper deposits. Its genesis seems facilitated by an acid environment and a clayey surrounding. It owes its name to the Greek kuanos (blue) and thrix (hair) in connection with its color and its habitus in tufts of acicular crystals. It comes in orthorhombic fibers assembled in radiate rosettes, urchins with velvety aspect and silky luster. Its sky blue to azure blue color and its pale blue streak are characteristic as well as its association with other arsenates and sulphates of copper (chalcophyllite, spangolite, brochandite, adamite, etc...). It is a mineral little known to collectors who has no particular use.
The oil painting was painted by someone named Bos.
Unfortunately, I have no information about this painter.
The painting belonged to my parents and hangs somewhere in my house.

Leyenda sobre la fundación de Teruel
Según una leyenda, para fundar la nueva ciudad los sabios y las gentes principales de la villa se reunieron y buscaron diversas señales y presagios, encontrando favorable el que un toro mugiera desde un alto y que sobre el toro brillara una estrella. De este encuentro toma, según algunos autores, su nombre la ciudad, ya que provendría de juntar en una palabra el vocablo «toro» y el nombre de la estrella, «Actuel», formando de este modo la palabra «Toroel», y después «Toruel».
Otra de las leyendas más extendidas sobre el origen del nombre de la ciudad explica que, en tiempos lejanos, la ubicación de las villas se realizaba sirviéndose de un animal salvaje: se perseguía a éste y en el lugar en que se le abatía se erigía un santuario. Alrededor de este altar se construía el pueblo.
Los aldeanos que habitaban en la zona salieron en busca de un toro salvaje que recorría los alrededores. Una noche, el animal se detuvo bajo una estrella y comenzó a bramar. Los adalides tomaron como buenas las señales que el Cielo y la Tierra les presentaban, y construyeron allí la villa. Tomaron del toro tres letras, TOR, y de la estrella, llamada Actuel, otras tres, UEL. Estas seis letras juntas dieron el nombre a la villa: TORUEL.
El lugar donde el toro y la estrella se detuvieron es ahora la plaza "del torico".

Legend about the foundation of Teruel
According to a legend, to found the new city, the wise men and the main people of the town met and looked for various signs and omens, finding it favorable that a bull would bellow from a height and that a star would shine on the bull. From this meeting, according to some authors, the city takes its name, since it would come from combining in one word the word "bull" and the name of the star, "Actuel", thus forming the word "Toroel", and then "Toruel".
Another of the most widespread legends about the origin of the name of the city explains that, in distant times, the location of the towns was carried out using a wild animal: it was chased and in the place where it was shot down, a sanctuary. Around this altar the town was built.
The villagers who lived in the area went out in search of a wild bull that was roaming the surroundings. One night the animal stopped under a star and began to bellow. The champions took as good the signs that Heaven and Earth presented to them, and built the town there. They took from the bull three letters, TOR, and from the star, called Actuel, another three, UEL. These six letters together gave the name to the town: TORUEL.
The place where the bull and the star stopped is now the plaza "del torico".
