La Cappella del Barolo is a never-consecrated building located in La Morra, in the Langhe region. It was reinterpreted in 1999 by the artists Sol LeWitt and David Tremlett.
The building was originally built around 1914 by some farmers working in the surrounding countryside and vineyards as a place of refuge and temporary shelter in case of storms or other weather.
In 1971 the building was bought, together with the surrounding land, by the Ceretto family. After falling into disuse and years of neglect, in 1999 the Ceretto family entrusted a modernist reinterpretation to the genius of artists Sol LeWitt, who did the external renovation, and David Tremlett, who repainted the entire interior.
On the outside, the building is characterized by geometric shapes in strong, vivid colors designed by Sol LeWitt, a master of conceptual art.

I haven't taken my 365 for today yet, I have to get on that.... but I was invited into Psi Chi (the National Honor Society for Psychology) today :):)
From far we feel
Two wheels
The way it goes
Texture comes after
When colors travel around
In the little details
The painter is gone
Come closer and see
External wall decor in the resort town of Salthill, near Galway in Ireland. That sign is a bit weather-faded...that emoji looks familiar... where have I seen one like that before?

The world can be so full of wonder and surprises, it often happens by creative man.
To use your eyes and see, then, the discovery!
Feverishly grabbing your camera, just like it is will go away... LOL
Have a sunny day, thank you, M, (*_*)

Pinnnacle @ Duxton, Singapore
I spent an afternoon noodling around the remarkable "Pinnacle @ Duxton" building complex, in Singapore. The public skybridge is an intriguing community space located on the 50th floor. Its 500 metre span connects the 7, 50 story buildings, comprising the complex.
This architectural marvel is an inspired community housing project, completed in 2009 - the deserving winner of several awards.
this fogged in morning.
if my sleepy saturday winter brain had a scan, i suspect it could look like this.... and the barns would build walls around the thoughts, and the mist would be a barrier to any demands from an external world.
peace :)

The set of temples on the island of Philé does not constitute an isolated system. Rather, it is closely linked to other nearby temples (Abaton) and to the series of Nubian temples that, from Philé, dot the shores of Lower Nubia. The pharaohs (almost continuously in each reign) had donated "the fields" (the Dodekaschoenos) to the goddess, which is the same as saying: to her priests.
On the island, there is a clear gradation in the temples. The main temple is that of Isis, which occupies the main axial position, while the other temples (Arensnufis, Imhotep, etc.) are subordinate to that of the goddess, being located transversally to said axis.
The decoration of the walls of the temples that make up the Philae complex was carried out according to a system described by Eleni Vassilika (Ptolemaic Philae), according to which the artists, following the guidelines of the theologians, would have produced a series of decorative cartoons from which the wall decorations would have been erected, maintaining strict regulated standards.
Galápagos sea lion — Zalophus wollebaeki
How this is determined
Location given: Galápagos Islands.
External ear flaps visible → sea lion (not a true seal).
Sleek, dog-like head profile and long foreflippers.
Uniform golden-brown coat typical of Galápagos sea lions.
Body proportions match adult or subadult individual at rest.
Description:
A single sea lion is stretched out on pale sand, resting beside dark volcanic rocks. The animal is lying on its side with eyes closed, body relaxed, and one foreflipper folded along its back. Low, warm-angle sunlight highlights the smooth, golden-brown coat and creates strong contrast between the illuminated body and the darker rocks in the foreground.
The beach surface is mostly smooth with scattered small clumps and footprints, suggesting a lightly traveled shoreline. The black, porous rocks at the lower edge indicate a volcanic coastal environment typical of the Galápagos. The background falls out of focus into open sand, keeping attention on the sea lion’s elongated form and texture.
Overall impression: a quiet haul-out moment—still, warm, and undisturbed—showing a resting marine mammal in a stark volcanic beach setting.

The external red emergency exit stairs on this building adjacent to Jubilee Campus in Nottingham reminded me of something more suited to New York.
The angle of the shadow makes the stairs look slightly crooked.
