Menin Gate Memorial to the Missing, Ypres.
Unveiled on 24 July 1927 it is inscribed by the names of 54,896 Commonwealth soldiers who died in the Ypres Salient but whose bodies have never been identified or found, except those of New Zealand and Newfoundland, who are instead honoured on separate memorials. As the monument was too small to contain all the names as originally planned, the Battle of Langemark (15 August 1917) was chosen as an arbitrary cut-off point and the names of 34,984 UK missing after this date were inscribed on the Tyne Cot Memorial to the Missing instead.
Menenpoort, Ieper.
De Menenpoort, onthuld op 24 juli 1927 bevat de namen van 54 896 Gemenebestsoldaten die in de Ieperboog zijn gesneuveld en waarvan geen lichamelijk overschot gevonden is of geïdentificeerd zijn, buiten deze uit Nieuw-Zeeland en Newfoundland die op aparte monumenten geëerd worden. Daar het monument te klein was om alle namen op aan te brengen zoals origineel gepland, werd besloten de Slag van Langemark (15 augustus 1917) aan te nemen als scheidingspunt. De namen van 34 984 Britse vermisten na deze datum worden vermeld op het Tyne Cot Memorial in plaats van op de Menenpoort.

Con questa foto ho cercato di ricreare i suggestivi paesaggi degli impressionisti. Penso che chi osserva una foto debba poter, usando la fantasia, ricrearsi nella mente la scena che sta vedendo.Almeno questo è quello che faccio io. Spero che qualcuno potrà apprezzare il lavoro.
Random Frankfurt Impressions.
Few very subjective pictures from recent trip “home“. I moved away 25 years ago. So I wonder, what kind of perception this is ... Funny how that changes.
My impression of old Zurich. I imagine this is what old Zurich must have looked in pictures taken by box cameras of the early 1900s.
Watch in large size.

Did another long exposure shot here, thus resulting in some of the motion from people's movement. This unique square is the largest square among all the ancient towns in China, and the unique aspect of this square is that the stream surrounding the sqaure is designed in such a way that everynight the water will flow from the stream into the square and all the dirts and dusts will be washed away. It's still working until this day. Amazing ancient people!
Happy Pretty Pink Tuesday, everyone - i dont have any pink shots here recently.
Common grackle impression. Topaz Impression is a software "filter" that renders photos in various painting and drawing styles. This is my way of enjoying painting in acrylic without actually getting out the paints. Topaz Impression can be fully automated, but I prefer to take control of the various parameters (paint volume, stroke length, etc) to make it art.
