Captured here is the walkway that separates the old part of Tursi called the La Rabatana from the newer lower part and what needed to be surmounted before I could have the best wood fired pizza in the city. I truthfully thought about secondary plans after I spent some time taking pictures in the area staring up the steep incline but after I snapped this a 90 year old Nonna stepped on to the stairs and began her climb slow steady up to the top with her pull behind cart trailing her.
La Rabatana is a impressive jumble of houses built with stones and bricks with an Arabic influence an inheritance of the Saracens who settled there in 850 BC and the first populated area of what is now known as Tursi. Surrounding the Rabatana are deep ravines cut from clay making its defensive position a hard one to crack but the Byzantines did so in 890 AD ending the Saracen presence in the area but not their influences on local language, food and culture.
Tursi is the city of Albino Pierro, the most famous son of Tursi a poet repeatedly nominated for the Nobel Prize for literature for his poems written in native Lucanian dialect and subject of a literary park set in his homestead. "That of Tursi, my town in the province of Matera, / was one of the many talks destined to disappear. / I had to look for the way to fix the sounds of my people on paper".

“Color directly influences the soul. Color is the keyboard, the eyes are the hammers, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another purposively, to cause vibrations in the soul.”
― Wassily Kandinsky, Concerning the Spiritual in Art

Groynes reduce longshore transport by trapping beach material and causing the beach orientation to change relative to the dominant wave directions. They mainly influence bedload transport and are most effective on shingle or gravel beaches. Sand is carried in temporary suspension during higher energy wave or current conditions and will therefore tend to be carried over or around any cross-shore structures. Groynes can also be used successfully in estuaries to alter nearshore tidal flow patterns.
Santa María la Blanca, Toledo, Castilla-La Mancha, España.
Santa María la Blanca es un templo ubicado en la ciudad española de Toledo. Construida en el 1180 como sinagoga y, habiendo funcionado como tal durante 211 años, fue expropiada y transformada en iglesia como consecuencia del pogromo de 1391. En la actualidad el edificio pertenece a la Iglesia católica, pero no se realiza culto en él. Se encuentra abierto al público y funciona como museo o centro en el que se desarrollan actividades tanto culturales como educativas.
Construido en 1180 (según testimonia la inscripción visible en una de sus vigas), este edificio mudéjar posee cinco naves separadas por pilares sobre los que descansan arcos de herradura. Si bien existe cierto contraste entre la sobriedad del exterior de la sinagoga y su elaborado interior, el edificio presenta no poca austeridad. Conforme a la tradición oriental, el mismo 'vive' hacia el interior. Esta sinagoga tuvo considerable influencia sobre otras sinagogas españolas; tal es el caso, por ejemplo, de la sinagoga de Segovia.
Se trata de una construcción mudéjar, creada por canteros musulmanes. Sus elementos de arquitectura incluyen paredes blancas y lisas, hechas de ladrillo, arcos de herradura y pilares octogonales, decoración geométrica en los frisos y vegetal en los capiteles de los pilares. Todas estas características y la distribución de los espacios, con sus naves formadas por la sucesión de arcos de herradura soportados por pilares, tienden a recordar la tipología propia de una mezquita. La articulación interior y estilo morisco de Santa María la Blanca han servido de modelo para importantes sinagogas europeas y americanas del siglo XIX.
Los 32 pilares de este templo son de ladrillo recubierto por cemento y cal. Ornados de piñas y volutas, sus capiteles denotan influencia del arte románico. Por encima de los arcos de herradura prevalece la ornamentación abstracta en frisos horizontales que incluye molduras con delicados motivos basados en la interacción de líneas y medallones. Los entrelazados geométricos formados por las líneas son de origen almohade.
Santa María la Blanca is a temple located in the Spanish city of Toledo. Built in 1180 as a synagogue, and having functioned as such for 211 years, it was expropriated and transformed into a church as a result of the pogrom of 1391. Today the building belongs to the Catholic Church, but no worship is held there. It is open to the public and functions as a museum or centre where both cultural and educational activities are held.
Built in 1180 (as evidenced by the inscription visible on one of its beams), this Mudejar building has five naves separated by pillars on which horseshoe arches rest. Although there is a certain contrast between the sobriety of the synagogue's exterior and its elaborate interior, the building is not without austerity. In accordance with Eastern tradition, it 'lives' towards the interior. This synagogue had considerable influence on other Spanish synagogues; such is the case, for example, of the synagogue of Segovia.
This is a Mudejar construction, created by Muslim stonemasons. Its architectural elements include smooth white brick walls, horseshoe arches and octagonal pillars, geometric decoration on the friezes and plant decoration on the capitals of the pillars. All these characteristics and the distribution of the spaces, with its naves formed by the succession of horseshoe arches supported by pillars, tend to recall the typology of a mosque. The interior articulation and Moorish style of Santa María la Blanca have served as a model for important European and American synagogues of the 19th century.
The 32 pillars of this temple are made of brick covered with cement and lime. Decorated with pine cones and volutes, their capitals denote the influence of Romanesque art. Above the horseshoe arches, abstract ornamentation prevails in horizontal friezes that include moldings with delicate motifs based on the interaction of lines and medallions. The geometric interlacing formed by the lines is of Almohad origin.

"Laugh at the wonder of it all
Laugh so loud you break the fall
And you see the gathering clouds
Cry at the sadness of the world
Cry so long you break its cold
And you hear the gathering sounds
Do everything you fear
In this there's power
Fear is not to be afraid of"
Thank you very much for all your kind messages and comments on my last photo. We are safe and sound. The hurricane passed a little bit farther, so it was only a lot of rain and puddles, but no wind, at least here.
Sadly, there were destruction on the coast of the beautiful Riviera Maya. Now, Delta is approaching the coast of the Louisiana, Hope no human losses are given there.
A (happy) Monochrome Bokeh Thursday for everyone!

Boats, Boards and Yachts
“Believe me, my young friend; “there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.”
This quote is from Kenneth Graham’s ‘The Wind in the Willows’ and I believe it to be true. I’m not a great sailor,
I haven’t had that many opportunities over the years but what I have had I’ve thoroughly enjoyed. The latest images
are a random collection of ships and boats etc., I have taken in the past, plus a few paintings and book illustrations.
This is the some of the many that are in the pipeline.

No, wait! These are African art(ifacts) in a case at the Crocker Museum in Sacramento, CA. Easy to see why so many artists were influenced by the power of tribal design and craftsmanship.

I honestly wouldn't have started making these kind of collage images if not for the work of Prins Evergarden.

(Still working on those technical issues)
As with every other conceivable activity in the world there is a considerable stable of YouTube influencers out there that put out videos on the subject of film photography. Some are very knowledgeable about the craft of analogue photography, others have more of an instagram vibe about them and could perhaps be described as falling more on the hipster side of things. Both are relevant to their own audiences and indeed there is a great deal of crossover of viewers (like myself) that tolerate and to some degree, enjoy both.
However, where the hipsters will no doubt disagree with me is my post production work on this image, shot on Cinestill 800T colour film, a fast cinematic film that is mostly designed for use under tungsten lighting. It can of course be shot anywhere under any conditions but it has a unique feature that when shot in daylight conditions I absolutely hate. Here is where the hipsters and I part company. The feature I speak of is that in any high contrast areas of the frame the film will almost inevitably show a very strong red haloing effect. I remember that in this frame the low sun was hitting the building from the left side and the entire edge of the building on that side was showing that distinct red haloing effect. Now the hipsters love that stuff. The more the better for a lot of them, apparently it looks cool (no pun intended). Nope, not for me. So it was a B&W conversion which thankfully took care of it in one fell swoop. Sorry hipsters, I love the passion you bring to film photography and I commend you for it but I'm an old git and I just want a little calm in my life.

Enlarge this photograph and take a close look at this natural garden. Remind you of Eden? I love Japanese gardens because they have the appearance of being totally natural and yet they are 100 percent cultivated.
But this alpine flora is totally adapted to the changeable conditions. The colours are gorgeous and earthy. They reflect the Tasmanian palette that artist Max Angus promoted in his long art career as a painter of the Tasmanian wilderness. Max was influenced by his photographer friend Olegas Truchanas, and they in turn shaped the way Peter Dombrovskis saw the Tasmanian wilderness - with pure unadulterated joy.
One final point. At the moment I have the arduous job of weeding my own garden. But look closely here. Do you see any weeds? Any plants out of place? No need for weeding in a pure natural environment. There's a real lesson here for all of us!
