While I was busy photographing cars this beautiful young lady was set on the wonderful architecture this city has to offer..........

 

My friend Sharad (see comment below) says she should be The Next Bond Girl, he has a point...:-)

More from the construction across from my office.

"The Cathedral of the Holy Spirit is the main church of the Hradec Králové Diocese and therefore also the seat of its bishop. The Gothic brick pseudo-basilica with two towers in the southwest corner of the Great Square has formed the characteristic panorama of Hradec Králové for more than seven centuries. The external dimensions of the cathedral are: length 56 m, width 25 m, height of the towers 48 m. The length of the interior is 50 m. The width of the walls ranges from 1.12 m (naves) to 2.12 m (towers).

 

It is sometimes said that the church was founded in 1307 by the widow of the Czech king Wenceslas II queen Eliška Rejček, however, according to more recent research, a parish church stood here already in the second half of the 13th century, which burned down in 1339. The current presbytery was built in 1339–1342, and the construction of the nave was completed in the 1460s under Queen Elizabeth of Pomerania. Jan Žižka from Trocnov is said to have been buried here in 1424. During the repairs after the Hussite Wars, which ended in 1463, an extensive crucifix was built. A fire in 1484 mainly damaged the towers, which were then raised by one floor and given new bells. The oldest of the four bells, Leopold (Dominik) is from 1485. The largest of the bells is Michael (Eagle) from 1496, which weighs 3847 kg. The pastoforium on the left side of the presbytery also dates from 1497. The church was repaired several times, looted and burned by Swedish soldiers in 1639. In 1664, with the founding of the bishopric, the church became a cathedral and was then modified in the Baroque style, further modifications followed at the end of the 18th century. In the years 1864–1876, the church was radically renovated by František Schmoranz and the towers in 1901 by L. Lábler. In the years 1980–1990, the church received a copper roof, and in 1997 for the jubilee of St. Vojtěch was visited by Pope John Paul II.

 

Hradec Králové (Königgrätz in German) is a statutory city in eastern Bohemia, located at the confluence of the Elbe and Orlica. It has approximately 94 thousand inhabitants and is the capital of the Hradec Králové region. Together with nearby Pardubice, it forms a metropolitan area with 340,000 inhabitants.

 

Due to its favorable characteristics, the territory of Hradec was already inhabited in prehistoric times. In the Middle Ages, it was the dowry city of Czech queens, and it is to this period that the Gothic cathedral of St. Ducha on its Great Square, which today, alongside the White Tower and the Old Town Hall, is one of the city's landmarks. In the years 1766 to 1857, the city served as a military fortress, due to the lack of interest of the city, it was restored and abolished only in 1884. The city administration made full use of the possibility of complete management of urban development. This literally freed up space for the golden era of Hradec Králové architecture at the beginning of the 20th century, from which, thanks to the buildings of Gočár and Kotěra, the city earned the title Salon of the Republic.

 

When looking at this landmark of Hradec Králové, observers will be particularly impressed by the contrast between the red brickwork and the white sandstone of the portals, windows and cornices of the temple. At the time of construction, sandstone was commonly used as the main building material in East Bohemian cities, which was absent in the vicinity of Hradec Králové. The builders of the cathedral therefore chose less common bricks as the main building material. The three-nave basilica church has a raised nave and a long east choir, through which the cathedral faces the square. In the axis of the choir, there is a cross in front of the church and two symmetrical towers on the sides. The baroque chapter sacristy adjoins the north side of the cathedral, the dean's sacristy and the Royal vestibule on the south side. Several Renaissance tombstones can be found on the outer walls of the church. Massive supporting pillars divided into three parts are prescribed for the exterior.

 

Hradec Králové is a university town, the University of Hradec Králové, some faculties of Charles University and the University of Defense teach here. For example, the regional court or the bishops of the Royal Hradec Catholic and Czechoslovak Hussite dioceses are based here. Klicper's theater is a recognized scene that has won the award "Theatre of the Year" four times, artkino Central is proud of the award "Best European cinema for young audiences" from 2008. Hradec Králové Park 360, which was created in part of the area of ​​the former military airport, provides space, among other things, for the summer of the Rock for People festival.

 

Bohemia (Latin Bohemia, German Böhmen, Polish Czechy) is a region in the west of the Czech Republic. Previously, as a kingdom, they were the center of the Czech Crown. The root of the word Czech probably corresponds to the meaning of man. The Latin equivalent of Bohemia, originally Boiohaemum (literally "land of Battles"), which over time also influenced the names in other languages, is derived from the Celtic tribe of the Boios, who lived in this area from the 4th to the 1st century BC Bohemia on it borders Germany in the west, Austria in the south, Moravia in the east and Poland in the north. Geographically, they are bounded from the north, west and south by a chain of mountains, the highest of which are the Krkonoše Mountains, in which the highest mountain of Bohemia, Sněžka, is also located. The most important rivers are the Elbe and the Vltava, with the fertile Polabean Plain extending around the Elbe. The capital and largest city of Bohemia is Prague, other important cities include, for example, Pilsen, Karlovy Vary, Kladno, Ústí nad Labem, Liberec, Hradec Králové, Pardubice and České Budějovice, Jihlava also lies partly on the historical territory of Bohemia." - info from Wikipedia.

Montreal, QC, July 2014. Not my usual kind of picture.

I have always taken back by the grace and sense of drama that is displayed by dancers. This image of Merrique, a Parisian born art model who possesses a background in ballet, personifies the beauty and grace of form in motion.

Of all the things I saw while at the sand dunes, these dead tree trunks had the most artistic shapes. There were endless compositions to be had. via 500px ift.tt/2G6GFXy

during my second shoot with Alexis, I happened to lie on the ground to get a different angle, and realized the puddle in front of her was throwing a reflection! Managed to snap this frame when the wind stopped blowing, giving a perfect mirror effect. I'm very thankful it rained the day before :D

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.

Le triage de Delloye est construit en 1929. En 1950, pour 1100 tonnes de charbon extraites journellement, on obtient 620 tonnes de charbon brut trié. On crible alors deux qualités de charbon et quatre calibres.

The bicycle's shape and beauty is only matched by it's incredibly efficient function.

Esta questão me acompanha faz tempo.

Aqui está um exemplo. Nem só como calçado um tênis ou qualquer outro artefato precisa ou deva ser usado apenas para atender suas funções.

Nas mãos de um vitrinista pode tornar-se matéria prima para a confecção de uma obra de arte!

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
