An exhibition at the Henri-Cartier Bresson Foundation at 79 Rue des Archives, 75003 Paris. Shot with my Olympus E-M1, Mark II camera.
I went to two photo museums while in Paris. This was one of them.
...die vom russischen Architekturbüro SPEECH entworfen wurde.
Hier ein Auszug aus dem Museumsführer:
"Das Museum für Architekturzeichnung liegt auf dem Gelände des Pfefferbergs in Berlin-Prenzlauer Berg. Das Areal wurde 1848 für die Brauerei Pfefferberg erschlossen und weist eine wechselvolle Geschichte auf.
Seit 1990 haben sich in den meist unter Denkmalschutz stehenden Gebäuden Kultureinrichtungen, Galerien und Künstlerateliers angesiedelt.
Gefärbter Beton und Glas bilden die Fassaden des Gebäudes, eine Kombination, die unter verschiedenen Aspekten kontrastreich und vielschichtig ist.
Sowohl die plastische Gestaltung des Betons als auch seine Herstellung und der konstruktive Einsatz sind bemerkenswert und prägen neben der Kubatur das außergewöhnliche Erscheinungsbild des Museums.
Die geschlossene Gebäudeoberfläche ist dekoriert mit stark vergrößerten Fragmenten architektonischer Skizzen in Reliefform. Die überdimensionierten Linienzeichnungen verweisen auf die Nutzung des Gebäudes als Ausstellungsort und Archiv.
An vielen Stellen im Inneren des Museums kehren die Gestaltungselemente der Fassade wieder und manifestieren den Designcode des Hauses; diesem Prinzip folgen auch die eigens entworfenen Türbeschläge..."
Are you enjoying this weather? Hopefully yes! This is my favorite time of the year I must say and I’m looking forward to potentially get few good frames out of it. This is from my favorite Wisconsin beach. What do you think?

Luke 6:47-48 New King James Version (NKJV)
47 Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: 48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock.
What is canola?
The oilseed packed with healthy oil, protein and potential
In a few decades, canola has become one of the world’s most important oilseeds and one of Canada’s leading crops. Today canola is a true “made-in-Canada” success story and the foundation of a thriving, sustainable industry.
The canola plant
One of the most widely grown crops in Canada, canola plants produce beautiful small yellow flowers which develop into pods, resembling pea pods. Each pod contains tiny black seeds, made up of about 45% oil. Once harvested, canola seeds are crushed to release the oil contained within the seed.
Canola grown in Canada belongs to the Brassica napus B. rapa or B. juncea species which belong to a much larger mustard family (Brassicaceae). Cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower are also part of this same botanical family.
The history of canola seed in Canada
Historical records indicate that rapeseed was cultivated as early as 2000 B.C.E. in India and introduced into China and Japan around 35 B.C.E. Documented use or that of a close relative appears in the earliest writings of European and Asian civilizations. Rapeseed plants prefer to grow in relatively low temperatures, with less heat required for successful reproduction than other oilseed crops. Therefore, rapeseed was one of the very few oil sources that could be successfully grown in temperate climates. This led to rapeseed being grown in Europe as early as the 13th century. In later centuries, rapeseed was used for both cooking and lighting, as its oil produced a smokeless white flame. Rapeseed had a rather limited industrial acceptance until the development of steam power, when it was discovered that rapeseed oil would bind to water and steam washed metal surfaces better than any other lubricant. It was this special property that led to the introduction of rapeseed into Canada.
The need for Canadian rapeseed production arose from the critical shortage of rapeseed oil that was needed by Allied forces during World War II and were supplied by Canada to break the blockade of European and Asian sources in the early 1940s. The oil was urgently needed as a lubricant for the rapidly increasing number of marine engines in naval and merchant ships.
I am making the rounds again, visiting many of the old abandoned houses I have photographed over the years. Many aren't around anymore, and some are deteriorating very rapidly. I am doing more film these days, as I both like the quality of film slightly more and the fact that images are "saved on film". I also photographed this place today on film and will share the photos once they are developed.
„Das Gebäude der Langen Foundation ist das größte Kunstwerk, das ich jemals erworben habe."
(Marianne Langen)
Das von der Sammlerin Marianne Langen initiierte und gestiftete Ausstellungshaus liegt auf einer ehemaligen NATO-Basis inmitten der niederrheinischen Landschaft.
Auf Einladung von Karl-Heinrich Müller besuchte der japanische Architekt Tadao Ando 1994 die Raketenstation und sah diese in ihrem Urzustand. Begeistert von Müllers Plänen, entwickelte er ein Architekturmodell, das ebenfalls Teil des Projektes wurde. Als Marianne Langen Tadao Andos Pläne im Jahr 2001 zum ersten Mal sah, entschied sie sich sehr schnell, dieses Haus als das letzte und größte Kunstwerk ihrer Sammlung bauen zu lassen. Ihrer Maxime entsprechend, verzichtete sie auf jegliche Fördermittel von Dritten.
Tadao Andos ausgeprägte Vorliebe für Beton und sein Gespür für das Spezifische des Ortes bestimmen auch seinen Entwurf für die Langen Foundation. So verwendete er Beton, Glas und Stahl und passte das Gebäude in die topographischen Gegebenheiten der umlaufenden Wälle ein.

Here are a few of the 13 million bricks in Ft. Pulaski. How many modern masons could do this? A young Robert E. Lee was here as a 2nd Lieutenant during construction. The Howitzer cannons at Ft. Pulaski, a number of which can still be seen, were smooth-bore guns. When Union forces attacked with rifled Howitzers, the fort fell in less than two days.

Art in station architecture
Artwork Title:
Street Scenes of Sai Ying Pun
Artist Name:
Tse Ming-chong and Hong Kong Youth Arts Foundation (Hong Kong)
Artwork Location:
Sai Ying Pun Station - Entrance/ Exit B1 and B2 Concourse
Form of Artwork:
Digital Printing on Self Adhesive Vinyl Film
Artwork Completion Date:

Artist's Concept:
"Street Scenes of Sai Ying Pun" is a community arts project led by the Hong Kong Youth Arts Foundation and local photographer and artist Tse Ming-chong.
In recent years, the historical district of Sai Ying Pun has undergone huge changes. To help document these changes and create an archive of memories for the community, over thirty young people worked with the artist to create photo collages combining over 450 pieces of monochrome photos. The artwork depicts the unique and vibrant character of the neighbourhood and records the traditional shops, the heritage buildings and the daily lives of the local residents.
Pink-headed knotweed ( Persicaria capitate grows along the foundation and on the grout of the Casa do Cantoneiro which sits along the road to the Caldera of Faial on the island of Faial in the Azores. The flower, originally introduced to the Azores as an ornamental plant, is native to the Himalayas. It escaped cultivation and is now considered an invasive plant.
The building, originally built to house road maintenance workers (cantoneiros), has been repurposed as an interpretation center for the Caldera within Faial Nature Park (Parque Natural do Faial).

The foundation and silo stand firm, but the barn fell many years ago. Part of the roof lays adjacent to the foundation.
