Abgeordnetenhaus für den Deutschen Bundestag,
Wilhelmstraße 65
Architekten: Lieb + Lieb Architekten BDA
Bauherr: Bundesamt für Bauwesen und Raumordnung
"Im April 2008 begannen die Umbauarbeiten an einem Bürogebäude im Berliner Parlamentsviertel an der Kreuzung Dorotheenstraße/Wilhelmstraße. Die einstige Außenstelle des ehemaligen Ministeriums für Auswärtige Angelegenheiten der DDR wurde vollständig entkernt, aufgestockt und mit einer gläsernen Fassade versehen. Damit soll eine der zentralen Kreuzungen des Parlamentsviertels ein modernes Erscheinungsbild erhalten.
Der Bau Wilhelmstraße 65 wurde von 1974 bis 1976 als standardisiertes Bürogebäude des Außenministeriums der DDR errichtet. Es wurde grundsaniert, damit der Deutsche Bundestag es dauerhaft nutzen kann. In den neunziger Jahren beherbergte das Gebäude unter anderem die Botschaft Afghanistans und Büros der Bundestagsverwaltung."

Cuando la ocasión lo permite y en este caso el individuo está inmóvil, pues está terminando de secar las alas, intento acercamietos extremos para poder apreciar esas facetas oculares, cosa que me encanta.

When the occasion allows it and in this case the individual is immobile, as he is finishing drying his wings, I try extreme close-ups to be able to appreciate those ocular facets, which I love.

I was intrigued by the multiple branches that emanated from this single tree as it seemed to move across the frame. Some more arboreal wonder from Little Wittenham Wood, South Oxfordshire.
Macro Mondays theme Jewelry
The faceted stones of my favourite necklace photographed lying across the top of the petals of a pink peony flower.
Jewelry or jewellery? This is confusing as I would never spell it that way. Jewellery is the correct spelling in Britain (and in Australia)... which to me is obviously the correct way (even though I am severely dyslexic) 😊
Width of frame is 3-4cm.
Happy Macro Mondays! 😊
Looking upwards at our multi glitter ball ornament salvaged from an M&S Christmas window display.
It is around 8ft in height. The largest ball is around 1mtr in diameter with additional balls around half that.
I missed the shot of my better half carrying the whole thing in the city centre ... visually bizarre.
The image was built up using a multitude of stellated mirrors but "Consummation", while still using mirroring, is patterned more with right angles. Some may see 'Crosses' and 'Stars of David' and wonder if there's a covert religious message here. There isn't. It is all about shapes and visual relationships ... nothing more. Besides, both the stars and the crosses are truncated in certain places, so they really bear no connection to religious icons. 6 Point stars and cross shapes exist in many Non-Abramic cultures. Art in the service of pure Abstraction is the intent here.
Again, I indulged in the play between symmetry and asymmetry. When utilizing previous images in these collages, elements and features of those pieces still show, which adds to the interest of the finished "Extreme Mirror" work. Bits of line, text and parts of discernible images peek through. And one is hard-pressed to find where one element, shape or graphic begins and another begins. Layers are deliberately mixed and layered in such a way that very little has total dominance. These pieces then, weave back and forth between fore, middle and back grounds. This falls in line with my view that no single, fixed view of reality can be the total picture.

- I did photograph a part of the lid of a crystal bonbonniere placed in front of the tetris light (see first comment) which caused the different colours on the different facets.
- An octagram is in geometry an eight-sided star polygon.
- Meaning of an eight-pointed star
The eight-pointed star, or octagram, has a variety of different meanings based on the interpretation of the culture or spiritual system that is using the symbol.
* From the Judeo-Christian perspective, the eight-pointed star represents new beginnings.
* However, the Babylonians believed an octagram represented the goddess Ishtar, who was associated with the planet Venus.
* The Hindu goddess of wealth, Lakshimi, is represented by eight emanations, which are depicted as two intertwined squares that form an octagram. Each emanation, or point, of the octagram represents one of the following aspects of wealth: victory, patience, health, knowledge, nourishment, prosperity, mobility and monetary wealth.
* For the Egyptians, the eight-pointed star represented the eight deities known as the Ogdoad. The Egyptians believed that the Ogdoad, four female gods and four male gods, each represented a primal force or element such as water, air, darkness or infinity. Together, they created the world and the sun god Ra.
* Two overlapping squares, or an octagram, also represents duality. Each point of the square represents the four cardinal directions and the four elements: air, water, earth and fire. The top square of the octagram represents the positive aspects of the elements, and the bottom square represents the negative.

#WindowWednesday
It's been a while since I've posted something for Window Wednesday. This is another one from the archives, photographed at Easter last year. It's a detail of the interesting façade of the "Axel-Springer-Neubau", the new building of the Axel Springer publishing house complex. A large part of that new building's exterior consists of window facets that create a modern, almost spaceship-like look.
Axel-Springer-Neubau, also called Axel Springer Campus, was designed by Rem Koolhaas (*1944) of OMA Architects, Rotterdam, and was opened in 2020. Here's a link to the OMA/project website if you are interested in taking a look at the entire building complex and the interior (I so wish it were possible to photograph there, too!):

Axel Cäsar Springer (*1912 in Hamburg, † 1985 in West Berlin) was a German newspaper proprietor who published a wide array of newspapers (both "serious" and yellow press), magazines (like the teen magazine "Bravo"), TV guides, and such.
I apologize for making myself so scarce on Flickr at the moment. I'm very busy with work.
HWW, and Happy Hump Day Everyone!
