Die Langen Foundation ist eine 2002 gegründete private Kunststiftung. Sie widmet sich der Kunstsammlung von Marianne und Viktor Langen. Die Stiftung unterhält ein von dem japanischen Architekten Tadao Ando entworfenes Ausstellungsgebäude auf dem Gelände der ehemaligen NATO-Raketenstation bei Neuss.
...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..."
St Mary's Abbey was established in 1088 as a Benedictine monastery, situated on the north bank of the Ouse, inside the city walls of York. In time it grew to become one of the largest and most powerful monasteries in the north of England. Now only foundation walls of the original Norman buildings remain, in the lovely parkland setting of Museum Gardens.
This house was undermined by a flood a handful of years ago. Slowly the house collapsed with its belongings still inside. Located in rural Brown County, Ohio a few miles north of the Ohio River.
Supporting the 'Temple of the Winds' folly in The Neale, Co. Mayo, Ireland are the foundations of a castle built c. 1776 that was never completed. This image was taken the morning before my previously-posted star trails shot of the exterior.
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.
Con seguridad Dios no va a abandonar a aquellos que se arrepientan sinceramente
El Señor Jesús dijo: “Arrepentíos, porque el reino de los cielos se ha acercado” (Mateo 4:17). La Palabra del Señor nos dice que si queremos entrar al reino de Dios, debemos confesar y arrepentirnos a Él. Por lo tanto, tenemos que entender qué es el verdadero arrepentimiento, porque esto es muy importante para nuestra entrada al reino de los cielos. En la Biblia se registra el testimonio del verdadero arrepentimiento de los ninivitas hacia Dios. Cuando el rey de Nínive oyó lo que el profeta Jonás transmitió las palabras de Dios “Dentro de cuarenta días Nínive será arrasada” (Jonás 3:4), él creyó, obedeció y dejó de lado su posición del rey, y se quitó su vestidura a vestir de cilicio sentando en las cenizas y guiando al pueblo de Nínive a confesar y arrepentirse a Dios, siendo así, acabarón recibiendo la misericordia de Dios.
Dios dice: “Dios utilizó Su actitud para decir a las personas: no es que Dios no tolere a las personas, o que no quiera mostrarles misericordia; es que ellas raramente se arrepienten verdaderamente hacia Dios, y es raro que las personas se vuelvan verdaderamente de sus malos caminos y abandonen la violencia de sus manos. En otras palabras, cuando Dios está airado con el hombre, espera que este sea capaz de arrepentirse sinceramente, y espera ver el arrepentimiento verdadero del hombre, en cuyo caso continuará concediendo entonces con liberalidad Su misericordia y tolerancia al hombre. Es decir, la conducta malvada del hombre provoca la ira de Dios, mientras que la misericordia y tolerancia de Dios se conceden a aquellos que escuchan a Dios y se arrepienten sinceramente delante de Él, a aquellos que pueden volverse de sus caminos malvados y abandonar la violencia de sus manos. La actitud de Dios se reveló muy claramente en Su trato con los ninivitas: la misericordia y la tolerancia de Dios no son en absoluto difíciles de conseguir. Él exige el arrepentimiento sincero de uno. Siempre y cuando las personas se vuelvan de sus caminos malvados y abandonen la violencia de sus manos, Dios cambiará Su opinión y Su actitud hacia ellos”.
De “La Palabra manifestada en carne”
De las palabras de Dios vemos que con que el hombre pueda arrepentirse sus pecados cometidos y sus malos hechos realmente y odiarse a sí mismo, confesar y arrepentirse a Dios sinceramente despojándose de toda la maldad de sus manos, practicando de acuerdo con la Palabra de Dios y no volviendo a cometer pecados, de esta manera, es el que tiene el verdadero arrepentimiento, podrá recibir la misericordia y bendiciones de Dios.

We caught some of the exhibitions at the Rencontres photography Festival in Arles. This building was hosting a display by the Manuel Rivera-Ortiz.Foundation for documentary photography
The Village Weaver is one species of 8 predominantly yellow coloured seed-eaters that flock together and with every breeding season build fresh hanging nests in a large communal tree.
Often they share that tree with 2 or 3 other species of weaver birds, making ID sometimes a challenging game.
What I loved about this particular tree was that the birds were in different stages of building, so we could truly see how they start the structure - they build the "frame" - a strong, sturdy circle first, beautifully demonstrated by this male Ploceus cucullatus in his prime :) I hope he found a mate happy to nest in what he is building :)
PS: I'd like to add, that we were at the Bird-Hide at Panic Lake, near Skukuza Rest Camp in Kruger National Park. The tree was on the other shore across the lake and I used my 500mm zoom less, had to crop very heavily and I used Topaz to slightly upscale and denoise the image, to be able to show the detail of the nest ring.
There was no disturbance of the birds; we were too far away from them, so we could watch their natural behaviour :)
The set of Asimov's "Foundation" trilogy is my dad's...the tea set is my mom's from their wedding...and the unique retro teapot is something I picked up at a thrift store in Pittsburgh but have since passed on to a friend who appreciates vintage pieces even more than I do.
This is also appropriate because my dad got me into sci-fi but my mom got me into tea, and all three subjects were made circa the 60's and 70's.
Every two years, Art in the Holy Triangle Foundation realises the h3h biennial, an international art event in Oosterhout, North Brabant.This year, the title of the biennial is A Deeper Shade of Soul.
During each evening office (evening service) of the Norbertine Sisters of St Catharinadal, this church commemorates the sisters from their community who once died on that particular day
One day I saw the artist Vincent de Boer, who calligraphs the names and dates of death sisters in a special handwriting he developed for the occasion.

The desktop on which to work is at the same time a monumental sculpture through which the long roll of paper runs. This workstation is an artwork by Jonas Wijtenburg and is part of a series of modular artworks by him.

Hamburg, Germany. 2008 to 2016.
Taken on 135, color negative film.

Technical Notes: Minolta XD7. The film emulsion was probably Rossmann's house brand of a ASA400 film, made in Japan, likely relabeled Fuji film sold under the Rossmann brand. This film does not exist anymore. Scanned on a PrimeFilm XAs in RAW with VueScan Pro, then processed in Lightroom with Negative Lab Pro.
So, I did a thing. And that thing was redesigning SWF.
Come take a look:

Downs Road Boatyard, Blackwater River, Maldon. The Foundation provides training and apprenticeships to keep heritage boatbuilding craft skills alive: such as rigging, metalworking, engineering and woodworking. Currently the apprentices are involved in the restoration of the 'Torbay Lass' built in 1923 and one of the last Brixham Trawlers to be built. The rebuild of Torbay Lass is managed by a lead shipwright with 6 young people getting hands on experience of rebuilding a 102-year-old wooden sailing vessel. Taken with a Polaroid SX-70 Alpha 1.
No photo for today, but an illustration!
as some of you may know, i am an illustrator before being a photographer. and since i opened a second flickr account in order to sort my art out, i thought i was going to make the link to my photo account.
have a nice visit!
The posted image is an illustration based on Asimov's foundation cycle. it is NOT a photo, but a concept art piece.
note: i've been swamped in things to finish lately. will go back to my regular photo schedule+stream visiting very soon.
note 2: don't pay attention to the EXIF on the lower right side. i used an old photo for the first initial textures of the image, and kept the original file with exif included. :)
