I decided to stop making customs because Mr.Super Clear is no longer reliable.

A while ago Mr.Hobby changed the famous MSC from "FLAT" to "MATT" but they didn't only change the labeling, they also changed the formula.

All the dolls I made with the old MSC FLAT remains perfect even after 6 years but the dolls I made with the new MSC MATT starts to crack after a while.

 

This can take 3 months or a year but the cracks starts to appear. Sometimes they are evident and sometimes you have to watch carefully under a direct light to see them but they are or will be there.

This is happening to a lot of awesome custom artists in the Pullip, Blythe and Bjd communities (and more each day) so I decided to talk to Mr.Hobby about this and they have confirmed to me the obvious: They changed the formula and it can't be used the same as before.

 

I'm looking for alternatives and making tests to other sealers but this can take a while...

When I find a sealer that works for me I will start making new dolls and remaking the ones that cracked.

If anyone knows about good alternatives to MSC that works and last in plastic I'd appreciate the info.

 

I'd also like to take the opportunity to ask, especially customizers, that you get in touch with Mr.Hobby (you can change the language from japanese to english in their web and there is a form contact) about this. Personally I think it's a budgetary issue and they won't change it, but if they receive many complaints we may have a chance.

  

Finally I would like to thank my awesome customers and followers for their encouragement and support, specially now. THANK YOU!

Anuncio Importante

 

He decidido dejar de hacer customs porque el Mr.Super Clear ya no es fiable.

Hace un tiempo Mr.Hobby cambió el famoso MSC de "FLAT" a "MATT" pero ellos no solo cambiaron el nombre y las etiquetas, también cambiaron la fórmula.

Las muñecas que hice con el antiguo MSC FLAT siguen perfectas incluso después de 6 años, pero las que he hecho con el nuevo MSC MATT empiezan a agrietarse después de un tiempo.

 

Ésto puede pasar a los 3 meses o incluso después de un año pero las grietas empiezan a aparecer. A veces son muy evidentes y otras veces hay que mirar la muñeca bajo una luz directa para verlas pero ahí están o estarán.

Ésto le esta pasando a muchos customizadores en el mundo Pullip, Blythe y Bjd (y más cada dia) así que me puse en contacto con Mr.Hobby y me han confirmado lo que era obvio: Han cambiado la fórmula y ya no se puede usar como antes.

 

Estoy buscando alternativas y haciendo pruebas a otros selladores pero ésto puede tomar un tiempo...

Cuando encuentre un sellador que me funcione seguiré haciendo nuevas muñecas y rehaciendo las que se hayan agrietado.

Si alguien conoce buenas alternativas al MSC que funcionen y duren bien en plástico os agradecería mucho la información.

 

Aprovecho la oportunidad para pedir, especialmente a los customizadores, que os pongáis en contacto con Mr.Hobby (podeis hacerlo desde el formulario de contacto de su web, que también está en inglés). Personalmente creo que es un problema presupuestario y que no lo van a volver a cambiar pero si reciben muchas quejas quizás tengamos una oportunidad.

 

Finalmente me gustaría agradecer a mis clientes y seguidores todo su ánimo y su apoyo, especialmente ahora. Muchas muchas gracias!

La Pietra di Luserna è una roccia metamorfica scistosa appartenente al gruppo degli gneiss. Si tratta in particolare di gneiss di tipo lamellare, cioè che si presenta in un insieme di strati sovrapposti come i fogli di un libro. Viene estratta da cave situate nelle Prealpi Cozie del Piemonte centro-occidentale, tra la Val Pellice e la Valle Po, nei territori dei Comuni di Luserna San Giovanni, Rorà, Bagnolo Piemonte e Barge, per i quali ha sempre rappresentato un'importante risorsa economica. Il suo impiego è molto antico e caratterizza tuttora la tipologia costruttiva degli edifici e l'arredo urbano delle aree di origine e dell'intero Piemonte, dal quale, a partire dagli anni 70 del ‘900, ha avuto una diffusione sia nazionale che internazionale.

Dear friends, like millions of people I was watching the most anticipated regular season football match in the NFL today between the Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals. In the first quarter we were all stunned to see 24 year old Buffalo corner, Damar Hamlin, make a tackle and then collapse to the ground. Medical personnel immediately began administering CPR as the players and staff of both teams gathered around to pray. There were plenty of tears. Tonight Damar Hamlin is in a critical condition on life support in the University of Cincinnati Hospital. Fans from both teams are holding a vigil. The game was cancelled.

Please pray that this vibrant young man makes a full recovery. He recently launched a toy drive for young poor kids, aiming to raise $2500. Tonight that fund has raised $4.4 million!

Tourism emerged as an important economic activity following the Greek Civil War, and Nafplio became one of the first areas to develop mass tourism in the mainland. Nowadays it is one of the most popular destinations in Greece and attracts a large variety of tourists, with the most coming from Athens and other cities in Greece, followed by many tourists from Germany, France, Scandinavia, Russia, the Balkans and the USA. Due to its architectural legacy, its proximity to the capital, Athens, and its mild and pleasant climate it attracts visitors all-year round, and it is the most popular destination for weekend or one-day excursions.

 

Apart from tourism Agriculture is a very important sector and the city is also surrounded by a fertile irrigated plain and produces oranges, lemons, peaches, apricots, olives and almonds. The Port of Nafplio is used only for bulk cargo due to its insufficient depth and also hosts a great number of leisure ships during the tourist season. The city has not developed any industrial activity of note and all secondary activities are related to agriculture or the construction industry.

"The Old Town Hall in Bamberg is one of the most important buildings that characterize the historic city center. It is located between the mountain and island towns in the left arm of the Regnitz. This location…

 

"...marks the old border between the episcopal mountain town and the bourgeois island town and clearly shows the Bamberg bourgeoisie's striving for power."

 

The landmark is built into the Regnitz River, with the Upper and Lower Bridges (originally a private bridge) leading away from it. Inside, the Ludwig porcelain collection belonging to the museums of the city of Bamberg is on display, one of the largest of its kind in Europe.

 

The town hall was first mentioned in 1387 and was rebuilt between 1461 and 1467 so that it took on its current appearance. During this construction phase it was mainly influenced by the Gothic period.

 

Johann Jakob Michael Küchenl redesigned the town hall between 1744 and 1756 in the Baroque and Rococo styles. Worth mentioning are the facade paintings originally created by Johann Anwander in 1755, which have been restored many times. After there was no longer much of this painting to be seen in the 1950s, the painter Anton Greiner repainted it between 1959 and 1962. Both sides of the building are fully decorated with recreated allegorical scenes and architectural details, the typical illusion painting of this period. Small, actually figurative elements on the eastern side reinforce the spatial impression. If you look closely, you can see a figurative leg of a putti protruding from the mural. This creates the illusion of a multi-perspective figure. The rococo balconies and coat of arms reliefs come from Jos. Bonaventura Mutschele.

 

The half-timbered house attached to the bridge tower, the Rottmeisterhäuschen, served as accommodation for the leaders of the guards.

 

The German Red Cross was founded on January 25, 1921 in the Rococo Hall. A memorial plaque in the passage of the old town hall commemorates its founding.

 

Bamberg (/ˈbæmbɜːrɡ/, US also /ˈbɑːmbɛərk/, German: [ˈbambɛʁk]; East Franconian: Bambärch) is a town in Upper Franconia district in Bavaria, Germany, on the river Regnitz close to its confluence with the river Main. Bamberg had 79,000 inhabitants in 2022. The town dates back to the 9th century, when its name was derived from the nearby Babenberch castle. Cited as one of Germany's most beautiful towns, with medieval streets and buildings, the old town of Bamberg has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993.

 

From the 10th century onwards, Bamberg became a key link with the Slav peoples, notably those of Poland and Pomerania. It experienced a period of great prosperity from the 12th century onwards, during which time it was briefly the centre of the Holy Roman Empire. Emperor Henry II was buried in the old town, alongside his wife Kunigunde. The town's architecture from this period strongly influenced that in Northern Germany and Hungary. From the middle of the 13th century onwards, the bishops were princes of the Empire and ruled Bamberg, overseeing the construction of monumental buildings. This growth was complemented by the obtaining of large portions of the estates of the Counts of Meran in 1248 and 1260 by the sea, partly through purchase and partly through the appropriation of extinguished fiefs.

 

Bamberg lost its independence in 1802, following the secularization of church lands, becoming part of Bavaria in 1803. The town was first connected to the German rail system in 1844, which has been an important part of its infrastructure ever since. After a communist uprising took control over Bavaria in the years following World War I, the state government fled to Bamberg and stayed there for almost two years before the Bavarian capital of Munich was retaken by Freikorps units (see Bavarian Soviet Republic). The first republican constitution of Bavaria was passed in Bamberg, becoming known as the Bamberger Verfassung (Bamberg Constitution).

 

Following the Second World War, Bamberg was an important base for the Bavarian, German, and then American military stationed at Warner Barracks, until closing in 2014.

 

Upper Franconia (German: Oberfranken) is a Regierungsbezirk (administrative [Regierungs] region [bezirk]) of the state of Bavaria, southern Germany. It forms part of the historically significant region of Franconia, the others being Middle Franconia and Lower Franconia, which are all now part of the German Federal State of Bayern (Bavaria).

 

With more than 200 independent breweries which brew approximately 1000 different types of beer, Upper Franconia has the world's highest brewery-density per capita. A special Franconian beer route (Fränkische Brauereistraße) runs through many popular breweries.

 

The administrative region borders on Thuringia (Thüringen) to the north, Lower Franconia (Unterfranken) to the west, Middle Franconia (Mittelfranken) to the south-west, and Upper Palatinate (Oberpfalz) to the south-east, Saxony (Sachsen) to the north-east and the Czech Republic to the east.

 

After the founding of the Kingdom of Bavaria the state was totally reorganized and, in 1808, divided into 15 administrative government regions (German: Regierungsbezirke (singular Regierungsbezirk)), in Bavaria called Kreise (singular: Kreis). They were created in the fashion of the French departements, quite even in size and population, and named after their main rivers.

 

In the following years, due to territorial changes (e. g. loss of Tyrol, addition of the Palatinate), the number of Kreise was reduced to 8. One of these was the Mainkreis (Main District). In 1837 king Ludwig I of Bavaria renamed the Kreise after historical territorial names and tribes of the area. This also involved some border changes or territorial swaps. Thus the name Mainkreis changed to Upper Franconia.

 

Next to the former episcopal residence city of Bamberg, the capital Bayreuth, the former residence city of Coburg and the classicist centre of Hof, as well as the towns of Lichtenfels, Kronach, Gößweinstein and Kulmbach, the Weißenstein Palace, Banz Abbey and the Basilica of the Fourteen Holy Helpers, the scenic attractions of the River Main and the low mountain ranges of the Fichtel Mountains with the town of Wunsiedel and the Franconian Forest belong among the region's major tourist attractions. There are also numerous spas like Bad Rodach, Bad Steben, Bad Staffelstein, Bad Berneck and Bad Alexandersbad." - info from Wikipedia.

 

Summer 2019 I did a solo cycling tour across Europe through 12 countries over the course of 3 months. I began my adventure in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished in Florence, Italy cycling 8,816 km. During my trip I took 47,000 photos.

Sol de Mayo

 

El origen de este paraje se remonta a mediados del siglo XIX, época en que las Postas de Diligencias cubrían las necesidades de troperos y mayorales. Estos importantes comercios instalados en medio de la inmensidad de la pampa prestaban servicio de reposición de caballos a las diligencias que transitaban, como único medio de transporte, con pasajeros y encomiendas. Por el año 1859 los señores Segundo Villafañe y Hnos. tenían la concesión de la diligencia “El Sol de Mayo” con sede en Rivadavia 437 de la Capital Federal , operaba la ruta Lobos y de ahí a 25 de Mayo, la primera posta era La Irene, viejo paraje situado en el deslinde de los Partidos de Lobos y Navarro...la segunda parada que la diligencia se hacía en la Posta de Sol de Mayo, en el partido de Navarro. (”Navarro, Pagos de Juan Moreira”– Martín G. Duhalde–1979-Pág. 49). Su ubicación geográfica lo ubica en el extremo sur del partido, y parte de sus campos lindan con el Río Salado, frontera natural del distrito. Desde esos tiempos se conformó este paraje que concentraba centenas de habitantes en su zona de influencia, llegando a tener una población de 1.300 vecinos. Hoy, el éxodo rural lo ha convertido en un paraje rural con reducido número de vecinos.

Sol de Mayo

  

The origin of this place dates back to the middle of the 19th century, when the Postas de Diligencias covered the needs of troperos and mayorales. These important shops installed in the middle of the immensity of the Pampa provided service of replacement of horses to the stagecoaches that passed, as the only means of transport, with passengers and parcels. By the year 1859 Mr. Segundo Villafañe and Hnos. Had the concession of the diligence "El Sol de Mayo" with headquarters in Rivadavia 437 of the Federal Capital, operated the Lobos route and from there to May 25, the first post was La Irene, old place located in the demarcation of the parties of Wolves and Navarrese ... the second stop that the diligence was made in the Posta de Sol de Mayo, in the party of Navarro. ("Navarro, Payments of Juan Moreira" - Martín G. Duhalde-1979-Pg. 49). Its geographical location places it at the southern end of the district, and part of its fields border the Rio Salado, the natural border of the district. Since that time this place was formed that concentrated hundreds of inhabitants in its area of ​​influence, reaching a population of 1,300 residents. Today, the rural exodus has turned it into a rural area with a small number of neighbors.

 

The center of our attention is focused on the Pulperia "Sol de Mayo", its Owner, Mr. Ruben Giles and his family, whom we remember with great affection and we thank for your hospitality.

the important thing for a drummer or dancer,

for example (singer too), is to get to the very

center of the rhythm, center of the beat "the nerve"

 

to find that first: to start from it as a base, and

from it all other things, even very elaborate things,

develop.

 

the captains i like, & the people in general are

those who seem to have found that center; it is

not that they are either "good" or "bad"

it is rather that they are fully alive, full themselves,

& that they, again the "best" of them, seem to

have gone through a baptism (of not just water: of

fire as well) from which there is no turning back.

location : Nanzenji Temple Tenjyuan ,Kyoto city ,Kyoto Prefecture,Japan

 

南禅寺 天授庵 南北朝時代 池泉回遊式庭園 書院南庭

Tenjyuan Garden on southern side of Shoin

 

Tenjyuan :

 

Tenjyuan is one of the most historically important temple of the Nanzenji. It was built as a dedication of the founder of the Nanzenji , Daiminkokushi Mukanfumon .

In 1267 the Emperpor Kameyama,enchanted with the natural beauty of the spot,elected a villa on the site where where the Nanzenji Temple now stands. Around 1288 the emperor was vexed by the appearance of a ghost and asked for help from Daiminkokushi ,the third Chief Priest of the Tofukuji Temple.

The priest rid Emperor Kameyama of the gost by merely performing Zazen meditations without reciting a single sutra.

The emperor was deeply moved by this demonstration of the priest's virtue and subsequently became became his disciple,giving himself the name Hoo("Great Priest").He later converted his villa into zen temple and dedicated it to Daiminkokushi.These events took place in Hoo's later years ; the priest died before the coversation of the villa was complete.It was left for a priest named Kiansoen,the successor of Daiminkokushi.to finish the work and inaugurate the zen temple. For this reason little credit for the task is given to Daiminkokushi himself.In 1336 Kokakushiren,the 15th chief priest of Nanzen Ji Temple,asked the retired Emperor Kogon for permission to construct a building commemorating the founding of the temple by Daiminkokushi.Construction on the building was completed in the following year(1337),hence the opening of the Tenjyuan.

Tenjyuan,however ,was destroyed in the Nanzenji conflagration of 1447 .Nor was the temple spared destraction by fire during the Onin War ( 1467-1477). More then 130 years passed before the temple was finally reconstructed.

Many of the temples destroyed by wars were reconstructed in the last quarter of the 16th century,when Japan enjoyed a period of political stability. The priests of Nanzenji agreed that the Tenjyuan be reconstructed by one of the most famous Zen priests of Kyoto,Genporeisan.He appointed Ungakureikei chief priest of the Tenjyuan ,and asked the daimyo Hosokawa Yusei to finance the enterprise.Thanks to generous contribution of Hosokawa,the reconstruction of the Main Hall,the Main Gate,and the old study was completed in August ,1602.These are the Tenjyuan buildings that stand today.

The garden consists of the front ,or eastern,garden of the Main Hall, and the southern garden near the Study.

 

***The eastern garden is a rock garden. A geometrically designed stone footpath embedded in white sand and moss connects the Main Hall with the Maingate. This footpath was made 1338 after the original construction of the Tenjyuan.

The other ,shorter stone footpath leading to Yusai's mausoleum was made after Yusai's death in1610.***

 

The layout of the southern garden clearly illustrates the characteristics of late 14th century landscaping.The two central islands in particular epitomize this style. A long penninsula extending from the study and a smaller penninsula extending from the other side meet to form a curling clasp,creating an eastern and western pond.The shorelines of the two ponds so divided are thus varied.

The eastern pond is smaller than the other and has a slopping bank.In addition to this landscaping technique,the arrangement of rocks near the waterfall indicates that the garden was made around the time of the construction of the Tenjyuan in 1337.

This temple has an explicit no-tripod policy, so tripods, including monopods, are usually prohibited here.

 

Comillas was an important whaling town, and even had a building known as "La Casa de la Ballena" where the animal's fat was transformed into oil. The whaling destiny of Comillas was written down, as was that of many ‘watchmen’ or comillan harpooners who acquired such fame during the 17th and 18th centuries.

El Real Monasterio de San Lorenzo de El Escorial es un complejo que incluye un palacio real, una basílica, un panteón, una biblioteca, un colegio y un monasterio.

 

Fue construido entre los años 1563 y 1584 por orden del rey de España Felipe II, en cuyos dominios no se ponía el sol. Desde este lugar, el monarca español, el más poderoso de su época, gobernó el mundo.

 

Los planos iniciales fueron realizados por el arquitecto Juan Bautista de Toledo, aunque posteriormente intervinieron otros como el famoso Juan de Herrera cuya aportación fue la más importante.

 

El rey concibió un gran complejo multifuncional, monacal y palaciego, que según el paradigma de la Traza Universal, acabó convirtiéndose en la obra cumbre del estilo herreriano.

 

El palacio fue residencia de la familia real española, la basílica es lugar de sepultura de los reyes de España y el monasterio –fundado por monjes de la Orden de San Jerónimo– está ocupado actualmente por frailes de la Orden de San Agustín. Es una de las más singulares arquitecturas renacentistas de España y de Europa. Situado en San Lorenzo de El Escorial, ocupa una superficie de 33.327 m², sobre la ladera meridional del monte Abantos, a 1028 m de altitud, en la sierra de Guadarrama. Está gestionado por Patrimonio Nacional.

  

The Royal Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial is a complex that includes a royal palace, a basilica, a pantheon, a library, a school and a monastery.

 

It was built between 1563 and 1584 by order of the King of Spain Philip II, in whose domain the sun did not set. From this place, the Spanish monarch, the most powerful of his time, ruled the world.

 

The initial plans were made by the architect Juan Bautista de Toledo, although others later intervened, such as the famous Juan de Herrera, whose contribution was the most important.

 

The king conceived a large multifunctional, monastic and palatial complex, which according to the paradigm of the Universal Layout, ended up becoming the crowning work of the Herrerian style.

 

The palace was the residence of the Spanish royal family, the basilica is the burial place of the kings of Spain and the monastery – founded by monks of the Order of Saint Jerome – is currently occupied by friars of the Order of Saint Augustine. It is one of the most unique Renaissance architectures in Spain and Europe. Located in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, it occupies an area of ​​33,327 m², on the southern slope of Mount Abantos, at 1028 m altitude, in the Guadarrama mountain range. It is managed by National Heritage.

 

Historically Yass, an important rural service centre on the Yass River, a tributary of the Murrumbidgee, was a town in the heart of one of the country's prime sheep growing areas. It was noted for its high quality wool and merino studs. Over the past thirty years has become increasingly known for its vineyards and its classy produce. By passed in 1994 it is no longer a stop on the Hume Highway but rather a quiet town with a broad main street, a number of attractive parks, a collection of handsome historic buildings

Quote from google:

Fallen Navy Seal Shane Patton is quoted as saying “Anything worth doing is worth overdoing. Moderation is for cowards.” Even Yoda weighed in: “Do or do not. There is not try.”

El Archiginnasio de Bolonia es uno de los palacios más importantes de la ciudad de Bolonia, Italia. Fue la sede de la Universidad de Bolonia entre 1563 a 1803, albergando actualmente la Biblioteca Comunal del Archiginnasio. Forma parte del sitio Patrimonio de la Humanidad de los Pórticos de Bolonia.

 

El palacio está estructurado en dos niveles con un pórtico anterior y patio interno que engloba la ex iglesia de Santa Maria dei Bulgari.

El nivel superior contenía las salas de estudio de los legisti (estudiantes de derecho) y los artisti (estudiantes de otras materias): sus respectivas aulas magnas son la Sala dello Stabat Mater y la Sala de Lectura de la actual Biblioteca Comunal. Tanto los legisti como los artisti disponían de diez aulas. Sin embargo, los legisti, considerados estudiantes de primera categoría y un poco presumidos, tenían sus salas a lo largo del corredor principal. Legisti y artisti subían el piso superior por escaleras distintas ya que no pretendían mezclarse de ningún modo.

Como testimonio de la larga historia universitaria del palacio ha quedado un enorme complejo heráldico en los muros, compuesto por siete mil escudos de armas de los estudiantes e inscripciones en honor de los estudiantes. Estos escudos se salvaron afortunadamente de la destrucción ordenada por el gobierno republicano en 1797 y de los bombardeos durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial.

 

es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archiginnasio_de_Bolonia

  

The Archiginnasio of Bologna is one of the most important buildings in the city of Bologna; once the main building of the University of Bologna, it currently houses the Archiginnasio Municipal Library and the Anatomical Theatre.

In the heart of the palace is the university Chapel of Santa Maria dei Bulgari, a reflection of history.

The Archiginnasio ceased to be a University in 1803 when the University was moved to Palazzo Poggi where it is still located today. Scuole Pie (primary schools) were housed in this building for a few years and later, from 1838 onwards, were replaced by the city library. Archiginnasio Municipal Library is the largest library in Emilia-Romagna. It was first established to keep the books collected from the closure of the religious orders made by Napoleon. It houses 850,000 volumes and pamphlets, including 2,000 incunabula, about 15,000 16th century editions, 8,500 manuscripts, letters, collections of autographs, prints and drawings and 250 archives. All of this material, handwritten and printed collections, are of the utmost importance. They deal with the civil, cultural, religious and social history of Bologna and its territory.

Externally the building presents a porch some 139 meters long comprising thirty arches supported by sandstone columns, inside a central courtyard with two lines of loggias that surround the former church of Santa Maria dei Bulgari. Two stairways lead to the upper floor where are located the study rooms of the legisti (students of civil and canon law) and the artisti (students of other subjects such as philosophy, literature and medicine). Each of the legisti and the artisti had five classrooms in their respective wings. However, only the legisti, who were considered the university's top students, had their classrooms in the main hallway. At the end of each wing are two great halls, one of them now the library's reading room, the other one now used as a congress room and known as the "Sala dello Stabat Mater" in memory of the first performance of Rossini's Stabat Mater, directed by Gaetano Donizetti, on March 18, 1842.

During the day, Russian units managed to capture the strategically important village of Ossów, but were repelled in the evening by a Polish counter-attack.

 

The battle was one of the first skirmishes won by the Poles since the beginning of the Soviet offensive in late spring.

 

(wikipedia)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polish–Soviet_War

 

The Battle was part of the Polish-Soviet war, from 1919 to 1921. The war came after the withdraw of Russian forces in World War 1 and the Massacre of Tsar Nicholas and his family. The Russians also went through a Civil War, ending with the Russian Red Bolshevik army being victorious. The Bolsheviks went on a conquest to many foreign lands, starting with Poland.

 

They were annihilated by the Polish, leaving them a reason to plan an invasion in the future...

Stirling Castle, located in Stirling, is one of the largest and most historically and architecturally important castles in Scotland. The castle sits atop an intrusive crag, which forms part of the Stirling Sill geological formation. It is surrounded on three sides by steep cliffs, giving it a strong defensive position. Its strategic location, guarding what was, until the 1890s, the farthest downstream crossing of the River Forth, has made it an important fortification in the region from the earliest times.

 

Most of the principal buildings of the castle date from the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. A few structures remain from the fourteenth century, while the outer defences fronting the town date from the early eighteenth century.

L'église Saint-Milliau à Ploumilliau.

Construite au 15ème siècle, cet important édifice de style Gothique est admirablement conservé.

Son clocher en granit à campanile ajouré est typique des clochers bretons.

Côtes d'Armor, Bretagne, france.

 

The Saint-Milliau church in Ploumilliau.

Built in the 15th century, this important Gothic building is admirably preserved.

Its granite bell tower with an openwork bell tower is typical of Breton steeples.

"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when we contemplate the mysteries of eternity, of life and the marvellous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery everyday. Never lose a holy curiosity."

~Albert Einstein
