Have a nice weekend ahead and stay safe!

Ich wünsche euch ein schönes Wochenende!

Meet gorgeous Teddy, he is our neighbours' Ana & Steve's 9 month cockapoo. I joined them on a walk to the bluebell woods today where we met his best buddy Eddy, I shall post a pic of them both later.

Furness Arch - just learned the name 2 years after I posted the photo. Frank Furness, a famed architect, designed the arch for the Connecticut display at the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Fairmount Park. Later it was moved to this site to mark the beginning of the stairs to Strawberry Mansion atop the bluff.

 

7 years after I posted this photo, I still love looking at the Furness Arch, the wall and steps.

 

In addition to the Strawberry Mansion, the former Robin Hood Dell East stands on the top of the bluff. "This open-air amphitheater, managed by the City of Philadelphia’s Parks & Recreation, offers the very best in musical entertainment, family-oriented activities, and creative learning through educational opportunities in the performing arts."

Black and white re-edit of a shot from December 2017. Of course the original show why I decided to edit in colour the first time around but I still love black and white photography. I especially love the texture of the fur and the catchlights in her eyes. Enjoy!

The Psychedelic Furs were a New Wave band in the early 80's, their name was the first that popped into my head when having to do an image that represented a music band.

 

They were one of the many acts spawned from the British post-punk scene. Their music went through several phases, from an initially austere art rock sound, to later touching on new wave and hard rock.

 

The band had several hits in their early career, including Heaven and Dumb Waiters. In 1986, filmmaker John Hughes used their song "Pretty in Pink" for his film of the same name.

On the Isle of Capri and everywhere in Italy you find coloured crockery - if you like it.

I bought some things for the kitchen, my daughter did not like them.

Auf der Insel Capri - wie auch überall in Italien - findet man farbenfrohes Geschirr, wenn man es mag.

Ich kaufte einige Stücke für die Küche, meine Tochter mochte es absolut nicht.

Das Eden Project entstand nach einer Idee des englischen Archäologen und Gartenliebhabers Tim Smit in einer stillgelegten Kaolingrube nahe St Austell. Von der Idee im Jahr 1995 bis zur Eröffnung der Anlage am 17. März 2001 dauerte es sechs Jahre. Charakterisiert wird der Garten durch die zwei riesigen Gewächshäuser, die aus jeweils vier miteinander verschnittenen geodätischen Kuppeln in der Bauweise von Richard Buckminster Fuller bestehen. Hier werden verschiedene Vegetationszonen simuliert. Die Gewächshäuser des Eden Projects sind derzeit die größten der Welt.

 

Die Entwürfe für die geodätischen Kuppeln stammen vom britischen Architekturbüro Nicholas Grimshaw, die Tragwerksplanung von Anthony Hunt, ihre Ausführung erfolgte durch die Würzburger Firma Mero. Gedeckt sind die mehrfach miteinander verschnittenen Kuppeln mit doppelwandigen Kissen aus ETFE, einem besonders leichten, transparenten Kunststoff. Die Folienkissen wurden in eine Konstruktion aus standardisierten, sechs- und fünfeckigen Stahlrohrrahmenelementen (Raumfachwerk) eingepasst. Die Raumfachwerkkonstruktionen überdecken stützenfrei eine Fläche von insgesamt 23.000 m² (Oberfläche etwa 30.000 m²) und haben eine Höhe von bis zu 50 m bei einem Durchmesser von bis zu 125 m.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

 

The project was conceived by Tim Smit and designed by architect Nicholas Grimshaw and engineering firm Anthony Hunt and Associates (now part of Sinclair Knight Merz). Davis Langdon carried out the project management, Sir Robert McAlpine and Alfred McAlpine[4] did the construction, MERO designed and built the biomes, and Arup was the services engineer, economic consultant, environmental engineer and transportation engineer. Land use consultants led the masterplan and landscape design. The project took 2½ years to construct and opened to the public on 17 March 2001.

  

The Tropical Biome, covers 1.56 ha (3.9 acres) and measures 55 m (180 ft) high, 100 m (328 ft) wide, and 200 m (656 ft) long. It is used for tropical plants, such as fruiting banana plants, coffee, rubber and giant bamboo, and is kept at a tropical temperature and moisture level.

The Tropical Biome

 

The Mediterranean Biome covers 0.654 ha (1.6 acres) and measures 35 m (115 ft) high, 65 m (213 ft) wide, and 135 m (443 ft) long. It houses familiar warm temperate and arid plants such as olives and grape vines and various sculptures.

 

The Outdoor Gardens represent the temperate regions of the world with plants such as tea, lavender, hops, hemp and sunflowers, as well as local plant species.

 

The covered biomes are constructed from a tubular steel (hex-tri-hex) with mostly hexagonal external cladding panels made from the thermoplastic ETFE. Glass was avoided due to its weight and potential dangers. The cladding panels themselves are created from several layers of thin UV-transparent ETFE film, which are sealed around their perimeter and inflated to create a large cushion. The resulting cushion acts as a thermal blanket to the structure. The ETFE material is resistant to most stains, which simply wash off in the rain. If required, cleaning can be performed by abseilers. Although the ETFE is susceptible to punctures, these can be easily fixed with ETFE tape. The structure is completely self-supporting, with no internal supports, and takes the form of a geodesic structure. The panels vary in size up to 9 m (29.5 ft) across, with the largest at the top of the structure.

 

The ETFE technology was supplied and installed by the firm Vector Foiltec, which is also responsible for ongoing maintenance of the cladding. The steel spaceframe and cladding package (with Vector Foiltec as ETFE subcontractor) was designed, supplied and installed by MERO (UK) PLC, who also jointly developed the overall scheme geometry with the architect, Nicholas Grimshaw & Partners.

 

The entire build project was managed by McAlpine Joint Venture.

Steinhuder Meer/GER

 

Der Torfkahn wird noch heute als Arbeitsboot der Fischer auf dem Steinhuder Meer verwendet. In früheren Zeiten wurde er für jeglichen Transport auf dem See eingesetzt, so etwa zum Transport von Torf aus dem Toten Moor im Osten des Steinhuder Meeres, der bis ins 20. Jahrhundert wichtiges Heizmaterial war.

Australian fur seals blend with their granite home. This island lies off the southern tip of mainland Australia and thousands colonize the rocky outcrops after almost being wiped out by seal hunting 100 years ago.

Challenge: Fur and Feathers by Margaret.

 

This is a collection of some of my favourite feathers. There is one Fur in there too.

 

Feel free to identify who the feathers belong to.

 

"Each feather on a bird’s body is a finely tuned structure that serves an important role in the bird’s activities. Feathers allow birds to fly, but they also help them show off, blend in, stay warm, and keep dry".

 

Feathers often represent freedom and hope.

"Hope is the thing with feathers,

That perches in the soul,

And sings the tune without words.

And never stops at all.

--- Emily Dickinson
