Aínsa, Huesca (Spain).
Dedicated to a colleague injustly fired of the company today. More than a colleague, a friend. To share with you these years of work has been divine.
Dedicada a una compañera de trabajo despedida hoy injustamente. Más que una compañera de trabajo, una amiga. Compartir contigo estos años de trabajo ha sido divino.
ENGLISH
The church of Santa María de Aínsa, is a good example of the Medieval architecture of the Sobrarbe area, although throughout its history it has undergone many modifications of the several rooms the temple is made up of: church, subterranean crypt, cloister and belfry tower.
The origins of the temple go back to the XIth century, being an irregularly proportioned construction of rough ashlar.
The church is accessed by way of an open door with a semicircular arc and archivolts, upheld by columns with carved capitals, and on the higher part of the entrance the usual Romanesque chrysmon may be seen.
However, the church has another entrance at the back, which acts as a junction between the temple proper, the tower and the irregular pentagon-shaped medieval cloister.
From the church, entering from the first stretch of the nave, one reaches the basement, a crypt opened beneath the front part of the temple.
On the other hand, to visit the tower and enjoy a beautiful view of the Aínsa’s historical urban area and its surroundings, one must enter from the exterior, through an elevated door. When one reaches the belfry’s openings, it is easy to understand why this tower had religious uses, but above all military ones , as it is an excellent observation tower for the Cinca river.

CASTELLANO
La Iglesia parroquial de Santa María de Ainsa (Provincia de Huesca, España) es un templo de estilo románico iniciado en el siglo XI y finalizado en el siglo XII. Se consagró en 1181.
De sencilla portada de cuatro arquivoltas apoyadas en otros tantos pares de columnas de capiteles labrados. Desde el interior del templo de única nave con bóveda de medio cañón apuntado se accede a la cripta y el claustro, ambos de gran interés.
La Cripta cuenta con 18 columnas y capiteles. Su torre, de dimensiones únicas en el románico aragonés, hace imprescindible su visita, con saeteras para la defensa, se alza entre las casas del pueblo y domina el entorno. Consta de cuatro pisos diferenciados, uno de ellos, el tercero, destinado a campanario.
El claustro, totalmente irregular, es un ejemplo de adaptación al medio. En el interior se puede admirar la obra del ábside realizada en piedra blanda de color rojo. La bóveda es de horno y tiene el eje ligeramente desviado del de la nave.

Back from 5 day long trip to Pune. It was fantastic to say the least. Though Kaas did not show its grandeur, this hill surely did.
This is a 15 second exposure with Hoya ND400 filter, tripod and remote release(Exif intact).
From Wikipedia,
'The Divinity School is a medieval building and room in the Perpendicular style in Oxford, England, part of the University of Oxford. Built between 1427 and 1483, it is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures, oral exams and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose ... The ceiling consists of very elaborate lierne vaulting with bosses (455 of them), designed by William Orchard in the 1480s.
This is a straight out of the camera shot. There is no editing involved. 3rd day into the vacation and had some great shots from Slot Canyon today.
The old lady in the pictures went near the light and gave this pose for just a little bit. She did not stay there for more than 10 secs because she was obviously in the frame for lot of photographers. I loved getting her into the frame. Made it more interesting than just with light streak alone.
I'm still on the road and will be uploading only rarely when I find a chance and some time. I have so many pictures to go through and edit when I get back next week.

This morning there's no rods or staffs to comfort you dressed
As a target as you amble in your chains and stumble through
The corridors that lead to our makeshift valley of death
In the prison's backyard where you'll give us your final breath
Last night, I saw you dine with lovers and human tears
But glanced at me in ways that brought to life my sleeping fears

Haedong Yonggungsa is situated on the coast of the north-eastern portion of Busan. This superb find of a tourist spot and temple offers visitors the rare find of a temple along the shore line. Most temples in Korea are located in the mountains. Haedong Yonggungsa Temple was first built in 1376 by the great Buddhist teacher known as Naong during the Goryeo Dynasty. Haesu Gwaneum Daebul (Seawater Great Goddess Buddha), Daeungjeon Main Sanctuary, Yongwangdang Shrine, Gulbeop Buddhist Sanctum (enclosed in a cave), and a three-story pagoda with four lions can all be seen looking out over the ocean.

They know that God will not take none of this….They know everything’s.
But it’s their believe that differentiate them from atheist. This is very important to be a pious man, whatever the religion you belongs.
Different fruits and money are given by the religious Hindu people.
If the most interesting man in the world had a tree cousin, this would be it. I originally came across this hidden beauty while exploring Volunteer Park, with my friend Gabriel Tompkins. From a distance, we saw only ordinary looking trees, but as we passed under the branches, it was clear that there was much more to them. They meant something special to each visitor who entered the park. To some, it was a tranquil setting to have a picnic or a group discussion. To many of the children, they were the ultimate climbing trees. To me, they seemed wise, humble, and divine. If these trees could tell stories, I would want to hear about all the people they've seen, and the times they've experienced. I hope that this depiction is a worthy tribute to their time on Earth.

This is the Kuan Yin Temple (观音亭) located at Banting, Selangor of Malaysia. It was a cloudy evening and right before it rains I captured these shots with an under-exposed and customized picture profile, I am glad they bring out some gloomy and spooky mood.
ANOTHER new boy! This is Bastien, a LLT Roderich on a Dollshe body.
His face up was done by Kleine Katze, who I bought him from. She has done a truly wonderful job on him- I couldn't be happier! <3

Ramses III added eight small chambers in the second corridor.
This (from the right side, opposite the Nile flood personification) depicts rows of standards representing various divinities stand on the left and right walls. Weapons and arrow quivers drawn on the rear wall.
The first part of the tomb was the work of Setnakht.

The Divinity School is perhaps the most beautiful medieval building in Oxford and the oldest surviving one built separately (1427-83) for a purely university purpose, to house the lectures and disputations of the theology faculty.
It has a remarkably fine and elaborate fan-vaulted ceiling by William Orchard who also built the fine ceiling of Christ Church Cathedral, and many of the 455 bosses on this ceiling are carved with the initials or arms of those who contributed to the cost of the building.
This room has been used in several movies including the 'Harry Potter' movies and 'The Madness of King George'.
