For Macro Mondays' #drips, drops and splashes theme
It's been a while since I've been here, but this really tapped into something I've wanted to try for ages. (And luckily it corresponded with the family all going off on scout camp and leaving me to my own devices for a few days....)
The background is a colouring-in sheet I completed years ago; even back then I appear to have been quite keen on rainbows!
The image is just over 2inches across.
I'm pretty certain there is no requirement to have motion for this theme, but I'm conscious this is a little different from others in the pool. It's definitely drops, though, and definitely under 3inches across, so hoping it fits.

My work neighbour has quite a green thumb and as a result our little area in the office is inundated with plants.
I think it makes us work better with all the increased oxygen.
Acrílico sobre lienzo, 120x70cm
En principio creo que es una especie de abstracto-simbólico-mitológico de creación propia que comenzó siendo un cajón con cuentas de collares de colorines y acabó en esto, aunque cueste creerlo.
Dada mi edad, estáis autorizados a sospechar que se trata de un desvarío de la senectud, inducido por el deseo sicalíptico de divertirme a lo loco (dentro del conjunto de expansiones que a uno le quedan a estas alturas) pintando lo que se me ocurría cada día.
Lo curioso es que al final creo que resultó una especie de sinopsis de la mitología griega empezando por el mito de Pandora (encarnada aquí en chica moderna entrando en su casa mágica) y pintando solo aquellos recuerdos de los Dioses del Olimpo que aún almacenan las pocas neuronas que me quedan y expresados “a mi manera”.
Un consejillo: No intentéis tratar de descifrarlo o malgastaréis demasiado fósforo cerebral, mejor miradlo y decidid si os gusta o no os gusta, y punto.
Dadas las circunstancias, se admiten toda clase de críticas maliciosas e incluso destructivas.

La basilica di Santa Maria Assunta è un edificio religioso sito in via dell'Isola a Camogli, nel Golfo Paradiso in provincia di Genova, ed eletta a basilica minore dal 1988. La chiesa è sede della parrocchia omonima del vicariato di Recco-Uscio-Camogli dell'arcidiocesi di Genova.
La chiesa parrocchiale fu costruita, secondo fonti storiche locali, nel XII secolo su uno scoglio - isola nelle immediate vicinanze del porticciolo del borgo marinaro. La struttura ha subito nel corso degli anni diversi interventi ed ampliamenti, specie nel XVI secolo e nei primi decenni del XIX secolo, modificandone quasi in parte l'originaria struttura religiosa. Nel 1970 sono state poste nelle tre nicchie della facciata, quella rivolta verso la piazza principale, le statue dei Santi Prospero e Fortunato e della Madonna del Boschetto.
L'edificio fu consacrato nel 1826 dall'arcivescovo di Genova monsignor Luigi Lambruschini e ancora nel 1847 da monsignor Placido Maria Tadini.
The Basilica of Santa Maria Assunta is a religious building in via the island in Camogli, in the Gulf Paradise in the province of Genoa, and elected a minor basilica in 1988. The church is home to the vicarage of the parish of the same name Recco-Uscio-Camogli Archdiocese of Genoa.
The parish church was built, according to local historical sources, in the twelfth century on a rock - island in the immediate vicinity of the port of a fishing village. The property has undergone over the years various interventions and expansions, especially in the sixteenth century and the first decades of the nineteenth century, changing almost part of the original church structure. In 1970, were placed in three niches of the façade, the one facing the main square, the statues of the saints and the Madonna Lucky Prospero and the Grove.
The building was consecrated in 1826 by the Archbishop of Genoa, Monsignor Luigi Lambruschini and again in 1847 by Bishop Placido Maria Tadini.
Villa Mimbelli: the eclectic architecture in Livorno (IT)
*****************************************************************************
The family Mimbelli was originally from Croatia. In the nineteenth century the spouses Mimbelli Francesco and Enrichetta Rodocanacchi bought this property. In 1865 work began on the expansion of the villa and the surrounding park. The couple called the architect Vincenzo Micheli for the project and to direct the work. The villa has three floors and a very elegant facade. Very interesting decorative elements adorn the facade. A special feature of the villa is the main entrance, wide enough to permit the passage of carriages. The entrance is in fact covered by a covering in cast iron. A second entrance in the rear of the villa is characterized by several large arches. This second entrance allows direct access to the dining rooms.
The artist Annibale Gatti was called to decorate with stucco ceilings the main rooms of the villa. The owners, like many other noblemen and wealthy professionals of the nineteenth century, loved to enrich their rooms with exotic elements and furnishings. In the case of Villa Mimbelli we find a real taste exotic room, the room used as a Moorish smoking room. Inside this room there are stucco and decorative elements typical of the Middle East and the Islamic world. The staircase connects the ground floor with the upper floor and it is decorated with cherubs in glazed ceramic.
In 1994 in the villa opened a museum dedicated to the artist Giovanni Fattori, a macchiaiolo artist. The large park is open to visitors free of charge and is rich in rare and exotic plants such as some palm trees from the Canary Islands. In the property there is an open air theater built in the twentieth century and a private chapel.

Ferdinand Effinger, Sr., a German immigrant, founded the family brewing business in Baraboo, Sauk County, Wisconsin in 1885. One of about 300 small breweries in Wisconsin when founded in the late nineteenth century, the Effinger Brewing Company was one of only 19 small breweries in the state in 1966, when the firm ceased brewing due to declining sales.
The original brewery complex, erected in 1885, housed Effinger's family and a saloon in addition to beer-making facilities. Eleven years later, Effinger was one of the earliest brewers in the state to begin producing bottled beer.
In 1911 Effinger reorganized the firm as a corporation owned by family members. In 1913-1914 the brewery was remodeled and expanded, providing space for new cellars, keg washrooms, and a mechanical refrigeration system.
With the advent of Prohibition in 1920, the company began producing root beer and near-beer. In 1921 the firm successfully converted to ice cream making and sales. Ten years later, the firm sold its ice cream business to the Borden Company and began reconverting the plant for beer production, which began in 1933. The firm continued its expansion program through 1948 when a new brewery building was completed and new bottling equipment was installed.
Throughout its 81-year existence, the Effinger Brewing Company remained a family-owned and managed business. The sons and grandsons of the founder served as corporate officers and as managers of the brewery. After the death of the founder in 1945, Ferdinand Effinger, Jr., became the firm's president and brewmaster, positions he occupied until the firm went out of business. Frederick J. Effinger, a grandson of the founder, served as secretary-treasurer and director (plant manager) from 1945 to 1966.

En estos tiempos no es fácil hablar de una especie que esté en expansión, pero curiosamente es el caso de la Curruca cabecinegra ( Sylvia melanocephala). Su reino, el matorral mediterráneo, cada vez ocupa más extensión, quizá por el abandono de muchas zonas de campo. En la fotografía un macho en Sierra Morena.
In these times it is not easy to speak of a species that is expanding, but curiously it is the case of the Sardinian Warbler (Sylvia melanocephala). His kingdom, the Mediterranean scrub, occupies more and more extension, perhaps due to the abandonment of many areas of the countryside. In the photograph a male in Sierra Morena. SW Spain

I've photographed this rock formation once before and am very much in love with the photo from that time last year.
This past weekend, I photographed it again.
While both are with the same lens and camera, as well as the same film, both are quite different.
I mean, the photos are composed almost exactly the same, and even the light was similar. But things are different enough to make me want to shoot it again. Just to see.
I took several shots of it last weekend. This is my favorite of the bunch.
The formation has no official name, but I have been calling it Pillbox Rock as that is about its size.
