On the scene, the composition is what is in this photo. In post processing, I considered cropping both the right and left edges to create a "cleaner" image. problem is I like the water tank and the funny vehicle on the lower right. So, the frame remains as shot.
About Full Measure Brewery: In 1995, Dr. Dennis (Skip) Elmer Jr., newly minted DVM, celebrated his first job as an animal doctor by buying himself a homebrew kit. He brought his homebrewed brown ale to a meeting of the recently formed Downriver Brewers Guild, where he met Mike Bardallis, who had been brewing at home since 1989. Things got progressively more, erm, interesting from that point on. Skip had a years-long run at establishing a horseback safari company in Tanzania, doing a little homebrewing with friends there. Mike supported his homebrew habit by working as an engineer.
In 2003, Skip and Mike met Annette May at the National Homebrewers Conference. Annette, once described as a “walking beer encyclopedia,” was working for B United International at the time, an importer of classic and unusual beers from around the world. Six months later, Annette and Mike were married, and they’ve been living the ‘life of Riley’ since then, plotting and executing all manner of tasty things to eat and drink. These days, Annette is a beer educator, teaching in the Brewing and Distilling program at Schoolcraft College, and working for the Cicerone program, plus many roles in industry organizations. She knows sake, too. As an Advanced Cicerone, she keeps us on our toes.
Mike eventually admitted to himself what he wanted to be when he grew up, starting a new career as a brewer in 2012. (Still hasn’t grown up, though.) Meantime, Skip got interested in distilling, learning many of the finer points of various traditional spirits production techniques. He, too, began thinking about a change in careers…
In 2012, a house fire forced Dr. Elmer to live in a hotel, and eat in restaurants, for six weeks. He found himself spending most nights at Plymouth’s newly-opened Sardine Room, where Chef Mario Maniac’s eclectic and interesting menus kept his spirits up.
Originally hailing from Romania, Mario Maniac is an accomplished chef and restaurateur. His most recent undertaking is the popular French Toast Bistro, with locations in Canton and Northville, which features a French/Cajun inspired menu. He is excited to craft menus built on fresh, seasonal, local ingredients, and designed to harmonize with our diverse range of beers.
Mike the Brewer here, and my Greek surname means roughly, “guy that carries the full measure of grain.” My grandfather emigrated to Detroit from the island of Lesvos, in Greece. Family lore holds that the first of our forebears to settle on the island worked as a longshoreman, and became known as ‘that guy who carries the full measure of grain,’ said measure normally being carried by two. (I come from a long line of short, sturdy folks.) His, and thus our, surname changed to reflect that distinction. These days, I put the full measure of effort, enthusiasm, and care into all of our beers. And, necessarily, I carry a lot of grain around.

MUNDO NOVO...
- Esta foto foi tomada em 2011, com uma filmadora Sony. Na época descobri que gostava mais de fotografar do que filmar... rsrs! Enfim, esta paisagem hoje se encontra irreconhecível, obviamente, com o verde perdendo, cada vez mais, o lugar e espaço para a selva de pedra humana. Parece-me que isto ocorre desde a época das cavernas. A partir dali, o homem entrou em luta contra a Natureza em vez de se harmonizar com ela...
NEW WORLD...
- This photo was taken in 2011, with a Sony camcorder. At the time I discovered that I liked shooting more than filming ... lol! Anyway, this landscape today is unrecognizable, obviously, with the green losing, more and more, the place and space for the human stone jungle. It seems to me that this has been going on since the time of the caves. From there, man began to fight against Nature instead of harmonizing with it...

Retour sur la Côte belge avec un nouvel album.
Si vous vous promenez dans la réserve naturelle de la Warande, entre Westende et Middelkerke, vous découvrirez désormais cette tour d'observation, sur laquelle vous pourrez même grimper, si le cœur vous en dit ! Conçue par le bureau d'architecture Delobelle, elle a été installée à la place d'un château d'eau, au milieu des dunes.
Les dunes de la Warande sont situées entre Middelkerke et Westende. Il s'agit d'une réserve naturelle remplie d'une grande variété de végétation, dont de larges buissons, différents types de dunes et d'oyats. On trouve également des mares pour les amphibiens dans cette réserve naturelle de 32 hectares. Au milieu de la réserve, il y avait un grand château d'eau inaccessible au public, qui servait de véritable point de repère pour Middelkerke et ses environs. Ce bâtiment vient d'être remplacé par une tour d'observation ouverte au public. Celle-ci propose de pouvoir observer d'en haut la nature avoisinante, mais aussi de pouvoir regarder le paysage côtier et la mer.
Une grande attention a été accordée à l'intégration de la tour dans son environnement. Une telle structure représente en effet un objet étrange dans un environnement naturel protégé.
Afin de minimiser l'impact sur l'environnement naturel, on a utilisé les matériaux de manière sobre et adaptée et on a choisi le moins de matériaux différents possibles. De plus, ces matériaux vieillissent naturellement et s'intègrent bien à la nature. Les couleurs utilisées s'harmonisent elles aussi avec l'environnement naturel.
Le château d'eau a été en grande partie démoli, mais une base de 7 m de haut devait être conservée car les installations techniques fournissent toujours de l’eau potable à Middelkerke. Sur ce robuste socle en pierre, la tour d'observation se développe, comme un fagot de dunes ou d'oyats jouant dans le vent.
Une passerelle en bois droite et massive s'élève lentement et se transforme en passerelle légère, en bois et métal, limitant l'impact au niveau du sol. Le sable et le vent peuvent s'en donner à cœur joie. La passerelle s'enroule alors autour des vestiges du château d'eau et monte jusqu'à une plateforme d'observation située à 7 m de hauteur. Cette plate-forme est accessible aux utilisateurs de fauteuils roulants et aux landaus. Il offre non seulement une vue magnifique sur la réserve naturelle et ses environs, mais également sur un étang artificiel installé sur le "toit" de ce qu'il reste du château d’eau. Cet étang ne fait pas seulement écho à la fonction précédente du bâtiment, mais répète et renforce la mare pour amphibiens déjà existante. Les visiteurs évoluent à proximité de la faune et la flore de la région. Le trop-plein de l'étang a été conçu de manière à servir d’"escalier" entre sol et l'étang. La structure de la tour est composée de tubes métalliques galvanisés et laqués, en référence aux oyats. Cette structure supporte l'escalier en colimaçon, une plateforme de repos et la plateforme panoramique. Sur la plateforme de 20 m de haut, la vision panoramique est exceptionnelle.
Return to the Belgian Coast with a new album.
If you take a walk in the Warande nature reserve, between Westende and Middelkerke, you will now discover this observation tower, on which you can even climb, if you feel like it! Designed by the architectural firm Delobelle, it was installed in place of a water tower, in the middle of the dunes.
The dunes of Warande are located between Middelkerke and Westende. It is a nature reserve filled with a wide variety of vegetation, including large bushes, different types of dunes and marram grass. There are also ponds for amphibians in this 32 hectare nature reserve. In the middle of the reserve, there was a large water tower inaccessible to the public, which served as a real landmark for Middelkerke and its surroundings. This building has just been replaced by an observation tower open to the public. This offers to be able to observe the surrounding nature from above, but also to be able to look at the coastal landscape and the sea.
Much attention has been paid to integrating the tower into its environment. Such a structure indeed represents a strange object in a protected natural environment.
In order to minimize the impact on the natural environment, we used the materials in a sober and appropriate way and we chose as few different materials as possible. In addition, these materials age naturally and blend in well with nature. The colors used also harmonize with the natural environment.
The water tower was largely demolished, but a 7m high base had to be kept as the technical installations still provide drinking water in Middelkerke. On this sturdy stone plinth, the observation tower unfolds like a bundle of dunes or marmosets playing in the wind.
A straight, massive wooden walkway rises slowly and transforms into a lightweight, wood and metal walkway, limiting impact at ground level. The sand and the wind can have a lot of fun. The footbridge then wraps around the remains of the water tower and climbs up to an observation platform located at a height of 7 m. This platform is accessible to wheelchair users and prams. It not only offers a magnificent view of the nature reserve and its surroundings, but also of an artificial pond installed on the "roof" of what remains of the water tower. This pond not only echoes the building's previous function, but repeats and strengthens the already existing amphibian pond. Visitors move in close proximity to the flora and fauna of the region. The pond overflow has been designed to act as a "staircase" between the ground and the pond. The structure of the tower is made up of galvanized and lacquered metal tubes, in reference to the sea marmalade. This structure supports the spiral staircase, a resting platform and the viewing platform. On the 20 m high platform, the panoramic view is exceptional.

The sky's azure canvas hosts an ethereal dance of clouds, harmonizing with a celestial tune carried by a gentle breeze. The Bodie Island Lighthouse, a stoic guardian, cuts through the dance with its luminous beacon, creating a symphony of colors in the night sky. The lighthouse, a conductor in this celestial performance, directs graceful cloud movements, casting an otherworldly glow. Together, they craft a magical tableau, merging celestial and earthly elements beneath the starlit expanse - Courtesy Chat GPT

While working on my Brussels series, I visited the Pannenhuis metro station—an unexpectedly cinematic location. The sharp, direct overhead light sliced through the platform like a spotlight, highlighting passengers as they boarded or disembarked. Every shot was about capturing that fleeting moment when movement, expression, and the architecture came together perfectly.
I value the vivid visual contrast in this scene. The deep shadows combined with sleek architectural lines create a minimalist aesthetic, almost like a stage set. The woman’s orange headwrap immediately draws attention against this background. Its hue reflects the ceiling’s glow, and her red sandals mirror this color, adding a subtle rhythm to the image. She is lit by a patch of light, absorbed in her phone, unaware of the symmetry she introduces. The scene appears natural and unstaged, yet all elements harmonize, resulting in a quietly striking and precise composition.

For the lover of the Richardsonian Romanesque, not to mention for the geologist, this building presses all the right buttons. While it's obviously derived from the European Romanesque, there's something quintessentially American about this design ethic, and it harmonizes remarkably well with both the urban and rural landscapes of this country. And where in particular would the built environment of the Midwest be without it?
While this style is often at its most powerfully chthonic when it uses dark-tinted rock (Lake Superior Brownstone, for example), it also works remarkably well in lighter tones, too. Here, for instance, the locally quarried Waukesha Area Dolostone makes a very effective rock-faced ashlar.

We decided to partake in the ceremony of hanging the prayer flags we made in Paro at the Kikila Pass (2700m) in Bhutan. The prayer flags were carefully unfurled, with each panel representing prayers and blessings in line with a long-standing tradition. The Kikila Pass served as a symbolic gateway, connecting the earthly and divine realms and bridging the gap between the material and the spiritual. We securely fastened the prayer flags to nearby trees and posts, utilizing them as channels for positive energy and blessings – Kikila Pass, Bumthang, Bhutan

This photo was captured from the western pier of Cadzand-Bad's small harbor, around the middle area. I was struck by the clean design of the navigation tower, which contrasted sharply with the open sea and sky.
I opted for black and white to emphasize the lines and shapes. Although it’s a simple scene, I appreciate how everything harmonizes—clear, calm, and balanced. It’s a perfect example of how functional coastal features can also produce striking images.
Guilin is a prefecture-level city located in the northeastern part of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China, renowned worldwide for its stunning karst systems. Situated on the west bank of the Li River, which flows through the city and serves as a central scenic artery, Guilin encompasses an area of approximately 27,800 square kilometers and is bordered by Hunan Province to the north. As of 2023, the city's total population stands at about 4.95 million, with around 1.2 million residents in its urban core, making it a significant regional hub. The city's geography is dominated by a tropical karst landform, characterized by tower-like peaks, depressions, and underground waterways formed over millions of years through dissolution processes, with the Li River cruise being one of its most iconic attractions. Guilin experiences a monsoon-influenced humid subtropical climate (Köppen Cfa), with mild, short winters averaging 7–10°C (45–50°F), hot and humid summers reaching 28–35°C (82–95°F), and annual precipitation exceeding 1,900 mm (75 inches), primarily during the rainy season from May to August. Administratively, Guilin governs six urban districts, eight counties, two autonomous counties, and one county-level city, reflecting its blend of Han Chinese and Zhuang ethnic influences in a diverse cultural mosaic. Historically, Guilin traces its origins to the Qin Dynasty in the 3rd century BCE, when it was established as a strategic military outpost and transportation center, highlighted by the construction of the ancient Lingqu Canal in 214 BCE to connect the Xiang and Li River systems. Archaeological evidence suggests human settlement in the area dating back over 7,000 years, evolving into a key political and cultural center in Guangxi by the Tang Dynasty (618–907 CE), with its name—meaning "forest of sweet osmanthus"—derived from the abundance of fragrant osmanthus trees. Throughout imperial China, Guilin served as a vital trade route linking southern frontiers to the Yangtze River basin, fostering a rich literary and artistic tradition inspired by its ethereal scenery, often immortalized in classical poetry and paintings. Economically, Guilin is a pillar of Guangxi's development, with tourism as its cornerstone industry, attracting over 100 million visitors annually pre-pandemic and generating substantial revenue through scenic sites like the Elephant Trunk Hill, Reed Flute Cave, and Longji Rice Terraces. The sector contributes significantly to local GDP, supported by agriculture—particularly rice, tea, and subtropical fruits—and emerging industries such as electronics, pharmaceuticals, and eco-tourism integration with rural revitalization efforts. In 2024, foreign trade reached 11.39 billion yuan (about $1.6 billion USD), underscoring Guilin's growing role in international commerce while balancing environmental preservation of its UNESCO-recognized karst heritage. As China's inaugural "world-class tourism city," Guilin continues to emphasize sustainable development, harmonizing its natural splendor with modern infrastructure to promote cultural exchange and economic resilience.
Guilin is situated in the northeastern part of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in southern China, at approximately 25°16′N 110°17′E. The prefecture-level city encompasses a total area of about 27,800 square kilometers, encompassing both urban and expansive rural landscapes. It borders Hunan Province to the north and northeast, as well as several other administrative divisions within Guangxi, including Hezhou to the southeast, Wuzhou and Laibin to the south, and Liuzhou to the southwest. The region's terrain is dominated by a distinctive karst landscape, characterized by isolated limestone peaks, deep caves, and winding rivers that have shaped its physical identity. This tower karst (known locally as fenglin) features over 3,000 sharply rising hills, many covered in lush subtropical vegetation, rising abruptly from flat plains and river valleys. Iconic formations include Elephant Trunk Hill, a prominent peak resembling an elephant sipping from the Li River, and Folded Brocade Hill, noted for its layered, colorful rock strata that evoke folded silk. The Li River, a major waterway flowing through the area, meanders among these peaks, creating scenic corridors that highlight the interplay of water and stone, while numerous caves—such as those in the surrounding hills—add to the subterranean complexity. Geologically, Guilin's karst features originated from a thick succession of Upper Devonian to Lower Carboniferous limestones, up to 3,000 meters deep, deposited in a ancient platform environment. Over millions of years, particularly the last 40 million, tectonic uplift combined with dissolution by rainwater and flowing rivers eroded the soluble carbonate rocks, sculpting the dramatic peaks and forming the end-stage karst evolution seen today. This process has resulted in a landscape where urban development in Guilin city occupies the relatively flat Lijiang River basin, while rural outskirts extend into more rugged, hill-dotted expanses.
Guilin experiences a humid subtropical climate classified under the Köppen system as Cfa, characterized by hot, humid summers and mild, damp winters. The average annual temperature is 19.4°C, with July marking the warmest month at an average of 28.6°C and January the coolest at 8.9°C. This temperature regime supports a growing season that spans most of the year, influencing both local agriculture and the influx of tourists seeking comfortable outdoor activities. Annual precipitation totals approximately 1,900 mm, predominantly occurring during the summer rainy season from June to August, when heavy downpours contribute over half of the yearly total. Fog and mist are prevalent, particularly in the karst landscapes, often shrouding the hills and rivers in a characteristic haze that enhances Guilin's scenic allure. These conditions result from the interplay of monsoon winds and the region's topography, leading to high humidity levels averaging 70-80% throughout the year. Historical climate records from 1951 to 2020 indicate a warming trend, with average temperatures rising by 0.5–1°C since the 1980s, attributable to global warming patterns observed across China. Extreme weather events punctuate this climate, including influences from typhoons that channel heavy rainfall inland from the South China Sea. Notable floods, such as the 1998 event that severely impacted the Li River basin, caused widespread inundation and disruption, while rare snowfalls occasionally occur in winter, adding to the variability of seasonal conditions.

The sight of this Bald Cypress tree on the Bayou was breathtaking. The tree, standing proudly above the water, was a stark contrast to its surroundings, adorned in its stunning reddish-orange fall colors. This vibrant hue harmonized perfectly with the tranquil environment, creating a visual feast for the eyes. The water elm (Planera aquatica) shrub, with its yellow foliage, added a beautiful touch, decorating the Bald Cypress's trunk in an almost poetic way. Witnessing this picturesque scene, I couldn't help but be overwhelmed by a sense of tranquility and gratitude for the wonders of nature in East Texas.

Being perfect artists and ingenuous poets, the Chinese have piously preserved the love and holy cult of flowers; one of the very rare and most ancient traditions which has survived their decadence. And since flowers had to be distinguished from each other, they have attributed graceful analogies to them, dreamy images, pure and passionate names which perpetuate and harmonize in our minds the sensations of gentle charm and violent intoxication with which they inspire us. So it is that certain peonies, their favorite flower, are saluted by the Chinese, according to their form or color, by these delicious names, each an entire poem and an entire novel: The Young Girl Who Offers Her Breasts, or: The Water That Sleeps Beneath the Moon, or: The Sunlight in the Forest, or: The First Desire of the Reclining Virgin, or: My Gown Is No Longer All White Because in Tearing It the Son of Heaven Left a Little Rosy Stain; or, even better, this one: I Possessed My Lover in the Garden. ~Octave Mirbeau, Torture Garden, "The Garden," Chapter 5

Another sample shot from my model work. Here I was playing with colors, textures and composition and how to best utilize only natural daylight (open shade) for lighting in an outdoor model shoot situation, working with professional model Adrina on location in a cowboy town in Arizona. I liked how the color of this old weathered red door harmonized with her outfit, so we used it as a backdrop.This was taken the day after the previous image I posted of her, and the weather had again turned much brighter.

There’s nothing like swimming to harmonize the body and soul. And, if that swimming can be done in northern Lake Huron on a sultry afternoon, the Imagination is absorbed into the melody. You see, God’s Love is so like the water of Lake Huron—the harder you try to hold on, the greater the risks of panic and drowning; the more you let go, the greater the possibilities of floating, swimming, diving and surfacing. God, the Massive Force, is somewhat like the Great Lake, too—deep-down mighty, serene, sometimes frightening, alive, always moving, always perceptible if we would only listen… and see. And, of course, not to be tinkered with.

Museum of Ethnography Budapest Hungary
Architects: NAPUR Architect
Area : 34000 m²
The new building of the Museum of Ethnography in Budapest City Park (Városliget) was opened 2022. The award-winning new museum building – which is part of Europe’s largest urban-cultural development called Liget Budapest Project has dynamic yet simple lines simultaneously harmonized with the park environment and communicating with the surrounding urban area.
The collection, which comprises 250.000 items from the Carpathian Basin and from every corner of the world, has been hosted by various facilities since its establishment in 1872, but never in its history did it operate in a building designed specifically to cater to its needs. The project was one of over 1700 entries from 115 countries. According to the decision of an international jury, the competition was won by the Hungarian architectural studio, Napur Architect (beating leading world-class architect studios such as Zaha Hadid, BIG), whose building is distinguished by a dynamic yet simple design harmonized with the natural environment of the park while communicating with the urban texture of its surroundings. The gently curving lines enable the building to function as a gateway and a passage linking the city and the park. Sixty percent of the structure is under ground level, and thanks to the landscaped roof and the transparency of the sections over the ground, the new museum is adapted to its environment in its scale too. The grass-covered roof area will be a pleasant community space awaiting visitors to Városliget.
The spectacular trademark of the building is the glass curtain wall surrounding the landscaped roof garden, reminiscent of two intertwined hillsides, with a unique characteristic, consisting of nearly half a million pixels, a raster made by metal grid based on ethnographic motifs selected from the museum's Hungarian and international collections.
The new functions and flexible spaces of the modern and state-of-the-art museum building will facilitate the understanding of the historical heritage embodied by the collection as well as the various aspects of contemporary society. Besides passing down this historical heritage, the realization of more recent professional and research themes and perspectives continues to be among the priority objectives of the museum, as confirmed by its mission. The creatively built spaces will open up new opportunities to communicate with visitors, enabling the presentation of the everyday objects, phenomena, and ideas of the past and the present side by side.

“Hatred paralyses life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.”
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Is not this a true autumn day? Just the still melancholy that I love — that makes life and nature harmonize. The birds are consulting about their migrations, the trees are putting on the hectic or the pallid hues of decay, and begin to strew the ground, that one's very footsteps may not disturb the repose of earth and air, while they give us a scent that is a pefect anodyne to the restless spirit. Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns. ~George Eliot, letter to Miss Lewis, 1st October 1841

RAINBOW BRIDGE
The Rainbow Bridge (レインボーブリッジ ) is a suspension bridge crossing northern Tokyo Bay between Shibaura Pier and the Odaiba waterfront development in Minato, Tokyo, Japan.
Construction started in 1987 and was completed in 1993. The bridge is 798 metres (2,618 ft) long with a main span of 580 metres (1,903 ft). Officially called the "Shuto Expressway No. 11 Daiba Route - Port of Tokyo Connector Bridge," the name "'Rainbow Bridge" was decided by the public.
The towers supporting the bridge are white in color, designed to harmonize with the skyline of central Tokyo seen from Odaiba. There are lamps placed on the wires supporting the bridge, which are illuminated into three different colors, red, white and green every night using solar energy obtained during the day.
The bridge can be accessed by foot from Tamachi Station (JR East) or Shibaura-futō Station (Yurikamome) on the mainland side.

This delicious seafood rice dish was served to us at a beachside restaurant in San Juan de Los Terreros, Pulpí, Almería, Andalusia, Spain.
In the pan, called a "paella pan", you can see a variety of seafood dishes, such as lobster, shrimp, clams, squid, and more.
All beautifully harmonized by the expert hands of "Charly," a Chilean chef who makes rice dishes far better than many Spanish chefs.
Currently, you can savor Charly's varied menu of dishes at "Chiringuito Perichan."
In Spain, these beachside restaurants are called "chiringuitos," a word of Cuban origin.
THE CHIRINGUITO BEGAN IN CUBA: "Chiringuito" is the diminutive form of "chiringo," a West Indian word that originally referred to a stream of water or trickle.
In Cuba, a rudimentary way to serve coffee without a coffee maker is to use a stocking as a filter and strain the boiling water (equivalent to the Spanish sock coffee).
The stream of coffee that came out of the stocking was called a "chiringuito," and later the makeshift kiosks made with straw where this coffee was made also came to be called that way.
Sugar or coffee plantation workers, when taking a break, would say "let's go to the chiringuito."
FROM SITGES (BARCELONA) TO ALL OF SPAIN: The origin of the chiringuito in Spain is found in the town of Sitges, south of Barcelona.
Numerous "Indianos" from the Catalan bourgeoisie settled in Sitges.
"Indianos" were the businessmen who had had lucrative businesses in the Antilles, and when they returned to Spain, they had stately homes built for themselves in beautiful outlying towns, such as Sitges, Ribadesella (Asturias) y many other places.
In the area's bars, when the Indianos wanted a coffee, they would say, "Give me a chiringuito."
In Spain, these establishments are regulated by a 2014 law, which establishes their size, separation between them, wastewater treatment, and unpleasant odors... (Source: Wikipedia)
ARROZ CON MARISCO, 2025
Este delicioso arroz con marisco nos fue servido en un restaurante junto a la playa de San Juan de Los Terreros, Pulpí, Almería, Andalucía, España.
En el recipiente, llamado paella, se pueden apreciar variados mariscos, como bogavante, gambas, almejas, calamares...
Todo muy bien armonizado con las expertas manos de "Charly" un cocinero chileno que hace los arroces mucho mejor que muchos cocineros españoles.
Actualmente, se puede saborear la variada carta de platos hechos por Charly en el "Chiringuito Perichan".
En España, a estos restaurantes junto a la playa se les llama "chiringuitos", que es una palabra de origen cubano.
EL CHIRINGUITO EMPEZÓ EN CUBA: «Chiringuito» es la forma diminutiva de «chiringo», palabra antillana que originalmente se refería a un chorro de agua o chorrito.
En Cuba, una forma rudimentaria de servir el café sin necesidad de cafetera es usando una media como filtro y colar el agua hirviendo (equivalente al café de calcetín o de manga español).
El chorro de café que salía de la media era llamado chiringuito, y después a los quioscos improvisados con cañas donde se hacía este café, también se llamaron así.
Los trabajadores de las plantaciones de azúcar o café, al tomarse un descanso decían «vamos al chiringuito».
DE SITGES (BARCELONA) A TODA ESPAÑA: El origen del chiringuito en España se encuentra en la villa de Sitges, al sur de Barcelona.
En Sitges se asentaron numerosos "indianos" de la burguesía catalana.
Se llamaba "indianos" a aquellos empresarios que habían tenido lucrativos negocios en las Antillas y cuando volvían a la península ibérica, se hacían construir casas señoriales en hermosos pueblos periféricos, como Sitges, Ribadesella (Asturias) y muchos otros lugares.
En los bares de la zona, los indianos cuando querían un café decían: «Ponme un chiringuito».
En España estos locales están regulados por una ley de 2014, que establece su tamaño, la separación entre ellos, tratamiento de aguas residuales y malos olores... (Fuente: Wikipedia)

This Cyclamen was even prettier from the back, and the background looked a bit like marine life, which seemed to harmonize with the seashell colors of pink and white.
The beginning of the 1930’s marks the democratization of aerodynamics in the car lines. Each manufacturer tries to harmonize its range with more contemporary offerings, including Peugeot with its 301 Profilée version. The model we present is in an advanced state of preservation, but is very healthy. Its paint is not the original one, and shows an old quality restoration. The interior is complete, but the upholstery is in a rather used state. From a mechanical point of view, a restoration will be necessary, but the package seems to be in good condition. Here is the opportunity to acquire one of the rare survivors of the 301 Profilée versions!

A reaction to academic art of the 19th century was inspired by natural forms and structures, not only in flowers and plants, but also in curved lines. Architects tried to harmonize with the natural environment.[3]
Art Nouveau is considered a "total" art style, embracing architecture, graphic art, interior design, and most of the decorative arts, as well as the fine arts. According to the philosophy of the style, art should be a way of life. For many well-off Europeans, it was possible to live in an art nouveau-inspired house with art nouveau furniture, silverware, fabrics, ceramics including tableware, jewellery, cigarette cases, etc. Artists desired to combine the fine arts and applied arts, even for utilitarian objects.
The Japonisme that was popular in Europe during the 1880s and 1890s was particularly influential on many artists with its organic forms and references to the natural world.
