Over the Summer of being in New Mexico, there have been a few protests to set children and families free from the immigration laws, Angry Bird March, and petitions for other what is believed to be unjust laws or practices.

The Vasco da Gama Bridge (Portuguese: Ponte Vasco da Gama; pronounced [ˈpõt(ɨ) ˈvaʃku dɐ ˈɡɐmɐ]) is a cable-stayed bridge flanked by viaducts and rangeviews that spans the Tagus River in Parque das Nações in Lisbon, the capital of Portugal.

 

It is the longest bridge in Europe (including viaducts), with a total length of 12.3 kilometres (7.6 mi), including 0.8 kilometres (0.50 mi) for the main bridge and 11.5 kilometres (7.1 mi) in viaducts.[3] The Bridge is served by 4.8 kilometres (3.0 mi) of dedicated access roads.[3] It was built to alleviate the congestion on Lisbon's 25 de Abril Bridge, and eliminate the need for traffic between the country's northern and southern regions to pass through the capital city.[8]

 

Construction began on February 1995; the bridge was opened to traffic on 29 March 1998, just in time for Expo 98, the World's Fair that celebrated the 500th anniversary of the discovery by Vasco da Gama of the sea route from Europe to India.

Reptiles can be fun to watch from a distance and should only be handled by professionals who are trained to handle such animals. Sanctuaries and Zoos handle these Alligators everyday by feeding them or assisting them medically. This Alligator eventually woke up with quite the growl after a lengthy nap in his pool.

Old Town had a fine display of the American Muscle Cars that many marveled at. Many who walked by couldn't resist but to take a look inside.

In New Mexico there are dried chile peppers hanging on buildings. Hanging dried chile peppers is said to signify the traditions of New Mexico because they are known for spicy foods.

This was the view from our super nice hotel in Umdloti, South Africa. Can a morning look nicer?

This Summer in New Mexico has been busy with people from all over to participate in events of all kinds. Traffic has been delayed with these constantly busy streets.

As with many, hope is everything. Church may bring hope, belief can give hope but whatever gives hope is what many will live for.

The best time of the year to us is Spring. Seems like Spring colors brings out beautiful courtyards and architecture seems to blend in so well. Spring surely is beautiful.

Waves are harsh on lobster traps as high tide tends to carry the traps and throw them up on the rocky shorelines. The damaged traps will remain until the fishermen that own the traps claims them.

The last of the day is a day ended with a new day to begin. Another day of new hopes, new dreams and new adventures. Goodnight Amarillo, Goodnight everyone.

These street artists can be found all over the world in tourist areas. This young lady was in Venice.

It's a hard job. This was a very hot day, and she had many pounds (Kgs!) in clothing and props, plus extensive makeup.

 

Thanks for looking, etc. :)

Just got my hands on PS CS5E, so now I went back to school to study! LOL! Will come back and see you guys after school...! Resized to 500 pixels using the PS "Export to Web" utility.

Now for the pizza lover, it's rest, relaxation and a large chicken pizza. Who says hard work never pays off?

To many this seems to be a normal hotel with luxury but maybe not. Back in 1926, this building was named "Santa Fe Hospital," which was used to treat the employees of Santa Fe & Topeka Railroad Co. By the 1980's, a group of Doctors bought the building and had renamed it "Memorial Hospital." By 2010 it became a hotel where it's said many may still see the spirits that wander through the hotel. Many who visit Albuquerque, New Mexico enjoy the luxury hotel and possibly any strange visitors.

"Mighty Casey" also known as Brian Kavanagn stands as a monument outside of Wells Fargo Bank in Amarillo, Texas. It's said that the reason he's posed the way he is that it's a depiction of his being overly confident as it's stated he let two strikes pass as he leans on his bat. The team of Mudville is printed on the back of his shirt which was said to be his team.

As lobster fishermen get ready to release their lobster traps the traps need to be baited. Once baited and trap set, fresh lobster is what they'll pull up. The challenge? Seagulls who try to eat the bait

This entire building is home to Rail Runner, Greyhound and Amtrack. The unique transit station is marveled by many who are first time visitors to Albuquerque. This building is photographed by many tourist as memories of their adventures in New Mexico.

Old Town has many fun gift shops to visit such as unique home made soaps, ice cream saloons, jewelry made by hand, events and candy shops. Being home has certainly brought back the fun of long ago.

In Albuquerque their are many stores that are unique in structure and are often noticed by passer by who just pass by. As the spring and summer progress, these stores may be noticed more frequently.

As Amarillo Texas started to fall into the evening hours, we headed back to our room, but before we did, we took one last look around to see all Amarillo's lights turn on and for many to say goodnight.

A nice spot for a jacuzzi splash but beware, this place is very slippery. When taking the river shots, I had to be careful not to drop my precious camera. :)

 

See below for normal processing. As you can notice, the power of HDR to bring out the details and colour is just lovely.

Many buildings in Albuquerque, New Mexico are designed with many forms of artistic walls by local artists. Some are for community unity while some may symbolize New Mexico itself. No matter where you turn, artist are creative for expression of life.
