Es curioso ver como todos los días cuando vas a fotografiar te encuentras con las mismas personas, los que pescan, pasean, corren, los ciclistas y este señor que todas las mañanas hacía lo mismo buscaba conchas....

 

Funny how every day when you're going to photograph the same people, those who fish, walk, run, cyclists and the man who every morning looking for shells did the same thing ....

 

Happy Easter

Then you see ...

Finally, after a long way northwards we reached the first ice cave. They were absolutely no informations about what we can expect. The only Thing we were told is that droids might be there along with old, established prisoners. But the bioscan indicates no advanced life forms. With These few informations, we made the last meters onto the entrance to the ice cave. As we entered the cave, we had immediately enemy contact. A few battledroids were guarding a quite interesting and conspicuous looking building. There could probably be some important Information...

Morning light went through and I thought that could be interesting.

Montreal's iconic Olympic Stadium….designed by French architect Roger Taillibert and built for the 1976 Olympics, has had a troubled history…. construction was not completed before the games… it was finally completed in 1987… you can ride to the top of the tower on a funicular…. another feature is the retractable roof, which always struck me as useful, but this design as unnecessarily frivolous.

Double exposure of film on a nice geometry.

Questo succedersi, mi sembra ormai chiaro, non lo afferriamo con la ripetizione di gambe, di braccia, di figure, come molti hanno stupidamente supposto, ma vi giungiamo attraverso la ricerca intuitiva della forma unica che dia la continuità nello spazio.

(Umberto Boccioni)

Book shelves, as designed by Zaha Hadid.

Alla Chiesa si accede attraversando un portico formato da quattro archi a tutto sesto, d'impronta rinascimentale. L'edificio attuale ha una struttura davvero singolare, frutto della fusione di tre cappelle, che erano originariamente distinte e che sono sorte in epoche differenti. Numerosi sono i cicli pittorici presenti all'esterno e internamente alla chiesa, che coprono un periodo che va dal XIV° al XIX° secolo. Arte e storia si integrano splendidamente in un quadro naturale tra i più suggestivi, quasi una balconata che si protende verso il golfo borromeo, Stresa e le isole.

 

Entrando nell'eremo, si incontrano dapprima il Convento meridionale (XIV°-XVII° secolo) con interessanti affreschi nella sala del camino, poi il Conventino (XIII° secolo) decorato, appena sotto le finestre del primo piano, da una lunga affrescatura secentesca ispirata alla Danza Macabra, ed infine la Chiesa, che ingloba al suo interno la cappella di Santa Caterina.

 

Nella parete del sottoportico è presente un altro importante ciclo di affreschi del Cinquecento, raffiguranti Santa Lucia, Santa Maddalena e Santa Caterina, così come altrettanti santi, tra cui si riconoscono Pietro da Verona e Nicola da Bari. All'interno della Chiesa, si sottolinea la presenza di un Cristo benedicente in mandorla, affiancato dai quattro simboli degli Evangelisti (Giovanni, Matteo, Luca e Marco) e che domina dall'alto l'altare della chiesa, mentre le due vele ai lati sono occupate dai Dottori della Chiesa in trono. Il cielo pittorico sembrerebbe alludere alla divulgazione della parola divina, ed è stato probabilmente eseguito da un artista identificabile con il Maestro di S. Abbondio. Sulle pareti della stessa cappella gli ultimi restauri hanno fatto riemergere i resti di un altro ciclo trecentesco di affreschi, dove spicca lo splendido frammento di una Crocifissione. Nei tre sottarchi sono invece dipinti il Re Davide con la cetra e il cartiglio, sul lato a monte, un angelo che sveglia il profeta Elia, sul lato interno, e Melchisedech sul trono, sul lato verso il lago.

 

Il presbiterio è, invece, di puro stile barocco (1610-1612) con affreschi di De Advocatis, tra cui spiccano un "Matrimonio mistico" di S. Caterina, e le figure ai lati dell'altare delle beate Giuliana da Busto e Caterina da Pallanza. Un altro rilevante documento figurativo dell'Eremo è rappresentato dalla Deposizione presente nella Sala capitolare. La cromia vivace e l'energia del dipinto (apprezzabile soprattutto nel gruppo degli armigeri, interessanti anche per la puntualità descrittiva delle armature) che porta a forzare le fisionomie, ne fanno un unicum di grande interesse per l'area varesina, da situare probabilmente attorno alla metà del Trecento.

Per quanto riguarda la torre campanaria, la sua costruzione risale al Trecento, è alta 15 metri, comprese la cuspide e la croce, ed ha base rettangolare.

In origine la torre era stata costruita come campanile della chiesa di San Nicolao che aveva una sua entrata autonoma, oggi murata. Nel XVI° secolo, quando le chiese sono state conglobate nell'attuale edificio sacro, è stata aperta la porta d'ingresso che oggi permette l'accesso alla chiesa dal portico rinascimentale. Il materiale edilizio con cui è stata costruita la torre è di varia natura, per esempio negli spigoli le pietre sono più lavorate e squadrate.

 

La cella campanaria ha un'apertura su ciascun lato: si tratta di quattro feritoie sormontate da un'architrave di cui una (quella a nord) è stata murata, mentre le due visibili sono dotate di una colonnina che dà loro l'aspetto di bifore. Interessante è anche il sacello: è il cuore ed il primo nucleo del Santuario, la cui edificazione risale al 1195. Fu costruito su un livello più basso rispetto alle altre parti della chiesa, con le stesse dimensioni del sepolcro di Santa Caterina sul Sinai. Sulla parete esterna sopra la finestra è affrescato il trasporto del corpo di Santa Caterina sul monte Sinai da parte degli angeli; sulla facciata sono affrescate le nozze della Santa, fra S. Ambrogio, S. Gregorio Magno e S. Agostino (XVI sec.). All'interno del sacello si conservano, dal 1535, le reliquie del Beato Alberto Besozzi, e sulla volta sono affrescati una raggiera con lo Spirito Santo, sotto forma di colomba e circondato da angeli. Nel sottarco, un affresco del 1892 raffigura il Beato Alberto in preghiera. Nella sala capitolare è esposta una preziosa documentazione fotografica che illustra l'impegnativo intervento di restauro fatto dalla Provincia, la quale inaugura qui, ogni anno, il suo programma di concerti estivi.

There are two photographers in our household, and one specializes in close-up photography, especially featuring the plant world. I'm not that photographers. (She would be Patricia Emerson Mitchell, my wife.) Recently I've tagged along a few times when she went to photograph at a couple of botanical gardens, and the exercise stretching by "seeing" skills in interesting ways.

 

In person you might not have found this plant to be all that interesting. The light was tricky (I used a diffuser to control it) and only a small section of the plant seemed to produce a decent composition. But I moved in close, used a macro lens, and found something that focuses on the gestures of the plant's shape, and on a small, very green world.

Macro detail of small Studio Glass perfume bottle by British Glass Artist Catherine Hough showing lined and textured front surface and internal reflections. The inspiration for this design is based on lines of quartz seen in pebbles. The precision of such lines and surface textures became the 'hallmark' of her work in the early 1980's while working at the Glasshouse in London and her small bottles, in a variety of shapes and designs were very popular. This piece was made for an exhibition in 1983.

In 1997 she set up her own company to concentrate on larger 'one-off' and limited edition pieces. More details and images of her work can be found at www.catherinehough.com

Sprotbrough is a village in the City of Doncaster in South Yorkshire, England, 3 miles (4.8 km) west of the centre. With Cusworth to the north, it forms the civil parish of Sprotbrough and Cusworth. Sprotbrough village had a population of 3,321 at the 2011 census; this does not include the area of Newton to the east of the A1(M). The civil parish of Sprotbrough and Cusworth had a population of 12,134, which also includes Cusworth, Newton and part of Scawsby. The electoral ward of Sprotbrough, including numerous rural villages to the north and west, had a population of 11,143.

 

The place name 'Sprotbrough' is first attested in the Domesday Book of 1086, where it appears as Sproteburg. The name is thought to mean 'Sprot's borough'.

 

Much of the local land was owned by the Fitzwilliam family until the 15th century, when the Copley family emerged as major landowners.

 

Sprotbrough Village harbours the Grade I listed St Mary's Church and The Old Rectory – the childhood home of Second World War flying ace Douglas Bader.

 

Sprotbrough is split into numerous distinct portions. West of the A1(M) Doncaster Bypass, Sprotbrough Village is the historic area surrounding St Mary's Church and the central shopping square. Sprotbrough Park, centred on Park Drive, consists of some expensive property and is arguably one of the most affluent neighbourhoods in the area. Lower Sprotbrough is located down the hill adjacent to the River Don within the Don Gorge. East of the motorway is the more suburban part of the village, constituting part of the wider Doncaster urban area.

 

Located along the A638 on its eastern edge is a large retail park (Danum Retail Park). In addition the Centurion Retail Park is located on the far side of the road in Bentley.

 

The small hamlet of Newton is situated immediately south of Sprotbrough on the river. It gives its name to a public house on Sprotbrough Road.

 

Sprotbrough Road connects the village to the A19 and A638 roads to the east for Central Doncaster. Melton Road goes to High Melton to the west. Spring Lane goes to Cusworth to the north, while Boat Lane provides access to Warmsworth and the Don Gorge to the south. There is also a lane to the rural village of Cadeby.

 

Its central shopping square consists of a convenience store, a pharmacy, a restaurant and wine bar, and an Indian restaurant. Additionally there is a Sainsbury's Local store on Sprotbrough Road. There are three schools, Orchard Infant School, Copley Junior School, and Richmond Hill Primary School. The local secondary school is Ridgewood School in Scawsby.

 

Sprotbrough is an affluent area on the outer western edge of Doncaster. At the 2011 census, its population was 98.0% white, 0.9% Asian, 0.6% mixed race, 0.3% black, and 0.2% other ethnic groups. 64.8% of the population were married or in a registered same-sex civil partnership.

My personal stay-at-home abstract photography project for today.

 

Some cheesecloth was used because it is broadly woven and it is easy to see the threads. Some slightly warm toning was added, and there is a little "glow" as well.
