A shrouded apartment building nearing its completion in Katendrecht, on the part of the quarter where once the Hanno container terminal was located.

I was by the way very pleasantly surprised here by the resolving power of the old Tamron zoom lens, once ('90s) designed for analog dSLR's.

This is number 292 of Zwart/Wit and of course 278 of Urban frontiers.

Tilburg West (NL) 31-10-1980

NS 1127

Om ervaring op te doen met dubbeldeksmaterieel heeft de NS in oktober 1980 proefritten in de reizigersdienst gereden met dubbeldeks voorstadsmaterieel van de SNCF. De trein maakte elke dag een retourrit in de spits van Amersfoort naar Amsterdam CS op een tijdstip dat een goede foto maken vrijwel onmogelijk was. De overbrengingsrit terug naar Frankrijk reed echter wel perfect voor het licht, waarbij deze foto is gemaakt.

In order to obtain experience with double-decker rolling stock, the NS has tested in October 1980 a set of SNCF double-deck suburban coaches. The train made a return trip every day during rush hour from Amersfoort to Amsterdam CS at a time when taking a good photo was almost impossible. However, the transfer ride back to France offered a good possibilty to make a decent picture of this train.

Um Erfahrungen mit Doppelstockwagen zu sammeln, hat die NS im Oktober 1980 SNCF-Doppelstocktwagen für dev Vorortsverkehr getestet. Der Zug fuhr jeden Tag während der Hauptverkehrszeit von Amersfoort nach Amsterdam CS und zurück, zu einer Zeit, an dem ein gutes Foto fast unmöglich zu schaffen war. Die Überführungsfahrt zurück nach Frankreich bot jedoch eine gute Möglichkeit, ein anständiges Bild von diesem Zug zu machen.

Afin d'acquérir de l'expérience avec le matériel roulant à deux niveaux, la NS a testé en octobre 1980 une rame de voitures de banlieue à deux niveaux de la SNCF. Le train faisait chaque jour un aller-retour aux heures de pointe d'Amersfoort à Amsterdam CS à une horaire qui ne permette pas de prendere une bonne photo. Cependant, le trajet de retour à la France offrait une bonne possibilité de faire une image décente de ce train.

Para adquirir experiencia con material rodante de dos niveles, la NS probó en octubre de 1980 un tren de vagones suburbanos de dos niveles SNCF. El tren hizo un viaje de ida y vuelta todos los días durante las horas pico desde Amersfoort a Amsterdam CS en un horario que no permitía una buena foto. Sin embargo, el viaje de regreso a Francia ofreció una buena oportunidad para obtener una imagen decente de este tren.

Per acquisire esperienza con il materiale rotabile a due livelli, la NS ha testato nell'ottobre 1980 un treno di carrozze suburbane a due livelli della SNCF. Il treno effettuava un viaggio di andata e ritorno ogni giorno nelle ore di punta da Amersfoort ad Amsterdam CS con un orario che non consentiva una buona foto. Tuttavia, il viaggio di ritorno in Francia ha offerto una buona opportunità per avere un'immagine decente di questo treno.

A fim de ganhar experiência com material rodante de dois níveis, o NS testou em outubro de 1980 um comboio de carruagens suburbanos de dois níveis da SNCF. O comboio fazia uma viagem de ida e volta todos os dias na hora do rush de Amersfoort para Amsterdam CS em um horário que não permitia uma boa foto. No entanto, a viagem de volta à França ofereceu uma boa oportunidade para obter uma imagem decente deste comboio.

You have to zoom in to full resolution to see the beauty of the fine ice crystals

Man muss auf volle Auflösung vergrößern, um die Schönheit der feinen Eiskristalle zu sehen

thank you Frank for the title...! :-)

A superb lp mini break with Quornflake, Mart and Phill in Llanberis. The slate quarry there is insanely massive with far too much to shoot in one evening. The day was spent reccying all the nooks and crannies which in itself was a mammoth task. When night fell we headed to our first spot and got cracking.

It was was great to get out with you all chaps and quality to finally meet Mart.

I think we will return here as this really doesn't do the location any justice and there is so much left to shoot including the most insane but hard to access spot I've ever seen. Here's to next time.

Usual lens capped double exposure from portrait outside the tunnel to Phill within. Thanks to Mart and Phil for their help in realising this one.

This is 226 of my 366.

Framed by steeply towering peaks and embedded in the legendary magic forest, the idyllic Hintersee lies in the Bavarian mountaineering village of Ramsau.

These three, which are all of driftwood washed up on the beaches, are the first in a series of some of the stuff that I love to look at in detail, as I wander around the coastal habitats I visit near home. As I can't go there just now, I've been trawling my archives, and (I hope) they are all images that I haven't posted before.

La Torre Arcobaleno si trova a Milano, vicino alla stazione ferroviaria di Porta Garibaldi: è alta 35 metri, è stata costruita nel 1964 e nei suoi primi anni di vita non era ancora nota come “Torre Arcobaleno”, dato che serviva semplicemente come serbatoio per l’acqua da destinare alla stazione. Negli anni Ottanta la torre perse la sua funzione, iniziò a deteriorarsi e si pensò di demolirla. In occasione dei Mondiali di calcio del 1990, giocati in Italia, si decise invece di ristrutturarla: fu rivestita con piastrelle colorate e solo allora prese il suo nome attuale, Torre Arcobaleno. Dopo i Mondiali la Torre Arcobaleno si è nuovamente deteriorata, perdendo molte delle sue piastrelle. Da alcune settimane – e anche grazie a Expo – la Torre è stata un’altra volta ristrutturata: i lavori sono costati circa 100mila euro e hanno permesso di sistemare le circa 100mila piastrelle di 14 diversi colori che ricoprono l’esterno della torre.

The Torre Arcobaleno (Rainbow Tower) is a recognizable mark on the city and emotional landscape of Milan, capital of fashion and design. Founded in 1990 by a group of companies that transformed an anonymous water tower at Porta Garibaldi into a colourful tribute to the creativity of Milan, the Tower has been re-stored and returned to its original splendour. The project, designed by the firm Original Designers 6R5 Network and implemented by Baz-zea-B Construction Technology, Condor, Row Solutions, Mapei and Marazzi, is a tribute to the people of Milan and to Expo 2015 visitors. The Torre Arcobaleno is a renovated symbol of the creativity and entrepreneurial spirit of Milan, now under the eyes of the world thanks to the Universal Exposition.

Sapphire Ice Cave, Iceland. Squeezing of the ice under high pressure, embedded black volcanic ash, and subglacial stream sculpting of the ice yields a truly amazing scene.

Hillside cemetery, Issaquah, WA.

This is the base of the same tree I uploaded yesterday and it is not photoshopped.

The old headstone on the right is partially embedded in the large tree trunk. The tree must have grown slowly swallowing the stone.

Here is another picture from the Krka National Park in Croatia. I particularly liked these smaller waterfalls, beautifully embedded in beautiful vegetation...

Hier ein weiteres Bild aus dem Nationalpark Krka in Kroatien. Diese kleineren Wasserfälle, schön eingebettet in einer herrlichen Vegetation, haben mir ganz besonders gefallen…

I converted the image to bw and then had Photoshop recolourize it (neural filters). I will embed both original photos -- colour and bw -- in the Comment section. It got many colours very close but not the truck itself. It was better than I expected.

Another non-starter from today's Macro Mondays' #contained theme

A slice of lemon, with a pip happily buried and looking very snug.

The colour was created using a lens filter adjustment, with a 'contrast negate' blend (whatever that is).
