Week 32
Sick and busy. This week I was cursed with having a terrible head cold. I still have the lingering aftermath of it as well. I spent most of my time this week working like crazy so photos didn't really happen until Saturday where I got a moment with my friends. I wish there was more to discuss this week but it was really not that interesting. Work day after work day and sleep during all of my free time. Next week should be a lot crazier and there will be a mot more to show for.
I can't wait for what this next week will bring!
Captured the shades and highligts of these elongated leaves. They grew in large clumps that also featured the unusual spikey blossoms also in this gallery.
There are quite a lot of excellent pics of Santiago Calatrava’s three ‘Holland’ bridges on flickr, many taken during the blue hour or the night, some others highlighting a specific perspective or focusing on some details. Nonetheless, as a viewer, you might think that they are more or less the same since you don’t easily understand the specificity of each one of them.
While all three designs are based on the common principle of a delicate balance between an inclined cantilevered pylon (towards the south, Hoofdvaart canal side), the ‘bridge’ itself and a series of cables, their respective functions differ greatly.
The ZITHER has two parts: the road crossing the canal simply at ground level and a bicycle/pedestrian bridge that runs parallel to the canal and spans over the road. That’s probably one of the most exclusive bicycle bridges I’ve seen so far – ever ; - ))
The Harp (previous pic) consists of a two-lane road, each with a pedestrian sidewalk, crossing the canal and the two roads that run parallel along it on either side. Therefore, it has the widest span and most important height.
The Lute (next pic) is part of a roundabout and consists of two crescent shaped roadways with adjacent bicycle paths that cross the canal at street level.

Er zijn nogal wat uitstekende foto's van de drie ‘Holland’ -bruggen van Santiago Calatrava op Flickr, veel genomen tijdens het blauwe uur of de nacht, sommige andere met een specifiek perspectief of met enkele details. Niettemin zou je als kijker kunnen denken dat ze min of meer hetzelfde zijn, omdat je de specificiteit van elk ervan niet gemakkelijk begrijpt.
Hoewel alle drie ontwerpen zijn gebaseerd op het gemeenschappelijke principe van een delicaat evenwicht tussen een hellende vrijdragende mast (naar het zuiden, Hoofdvaart kanaalzijde), de ‘brug’ zelf en een reeks kabels, verschillen hun respectieve functies enorm.
De CITER bestaat uit twee delen: de weg die het kanaal oversteekt op de begane grond en een fiets- / voetgangersbrug die evenwijdig aan het kanaal en over de weg loopt. Dat is waarschijnlijk een van de meest exclusieve fietsbruggen die ik tot nu toe heb gezien - ooit ; - ))
De Harp (vorige foto) bestaat uit een tweebaansweg, elk met een voetgangersstoep, die het kanaal kruist en de twee wegen die er aan weerszijden parallel aan lopen. Daarom heeft het de grootste overspanning en de belangrijkste hoogte.
De Luit (volgende foto) maakt deel uit van een rotonde en bestaat uit twee halvemaanvormige wegen met aangrenzende fietspaden die op straatniveau over het kanaal lopen

Tibby has blonde and fuchsia thermal highlights on to a cinnamon girl scalp. There is a bit of a gap between her scalp and plates but it's hidden under her hairs. Her base....I think was a fancy pansy? She's got a licca body, new lashes and brainworm eye chips. She's so loveable!
My Beautiful Wife. Often I rush to take the shot, and hit the shutter before I check my meter. An amature mistake in sure, but 2 things occurs when this happens: #1 the shot is yours #2 you have the chance for some extreme lighting effects you didnt expect in the heat of the moment. This was over exposed, but the important details were there and it stood out to me..... maybe because it's my wife and that's what is supposed to happen?

Rain has been pouring down on the top of my study life. Hope the ray of hope from the sunshine would come up soon :)
The house in the middle shows a few highlight of the historical city of Delft on a wall painting: wind mill De Roos, The Milkmaid by Vermeer, the New Church, the Maria van Jesse Church, Hugo de Groot and the East Gate. A large contrast with the information poster on the right urging you to buy a new city villa, under construction outside of the picture on the right behind the fence.
