The Düsseldorf Media Harbor, or Medienhafen, is a striking example of urban regeneration that has transformed a derelict industrial port into one of the city's most fashionable and dynamic districts. Once a bustling commercial harbor filled with warehouses and disused buildings, the area began its dramatic makeover in the 1990s. City planners embarked on a strategic project to rejuvenate the waterfront, focusing on a plot-by-plot approach that blended new, avant-garde architecture with the preservation of historic industrial elements. The result is a vibrant hub that seamlessly combines the old and the new, attracting both locals and tourists with its unique atmosphere and creative energy.
The architectural landscape of the Medienhafen is its most prominent feature, showcasing the works of some of the world's most renowned architects. The most iconic structures are undoubtedly the "Gehry Buildings," officially known as the Neuer Zollhof. Designed by the visionary Frank O. Gehry, these three asymmetrical, sculptural high-rises—clad in stainless steel, red brick, and white plaster—have become a symbol of modern Düsseldorf. Other notable buildings include the Colorium, with its eye-catching kaleidoscopic glass facade by William Alsop, and the sleek Stadttor by Helmut Jahn. These architectural masterpieces stand alongside renovated historic warehouses, creating a visually captivating and diverse urban environment that has made the area a must-see for architecture enthusiasts.
Beyond its architectural appeal, the Media Harbor is a thriving economic center. As its name suggests, it is home to over 800 companies, primarily from the media, advertising, and creative sectors. The area's revitalization was driven by a vision to create a hub for these industries, and the project has been a resounding success. The modern office buildings and refurbished industrial spaces provide a unique and inspiring setting for creative work. This concentration of innovative firms has not only revitalized the district but has also solidified Düsseldorf's reputation as a major player in Germany's creative economy.
The cultural and leisure offerings in the Medienhafen are as diverse as its architecture. The waterfront is lined with a variety of trendy cafes, upscale restaurants, and vibrant bars, catering to the district's sophisticated crowd. Visitors can enjoy a wide range of culinary experiences, from Mediterranean cuisine and gourmet burgers to fine dining with stunning views of the Rhine River. The area is also a popular spot for leisure activities, whether it's a stroll along the promenade, a sightseeing cruise on the river, or simply enjoying the lively atmosphere. The fusion of business and pleasure makes the Medienhafen a destination where people can work, dine, and relax in style.
In essence, the Düsseldorf Media Harbor is a testament to the power of thoughtful urban redevelopment. It has successfully transformed an aging industrial zone into a modern, stylish, and economically significant district. By preserving its historical character while embracing cutting-edge architecture and new industries, the Medienhafen has created a unique identity. It stands as a symbol of Düsseldorf's reinvention and a vibrant, forward-looking neighborhood that attracts a mix of creatives, business professionals, and tourists alike, all drawn to its dynamic blend of art, commerce, and culture.

The Sevens World Series reaches its dramatic conclusion this weekend at Twickenham!
It's FUN Day — watching Rugby at Twickenham Rugby Stadium.
The beautiful and now tranquil setting of Augustinian Lanercost Priory belies an often troubled history. Standing close to Hadrian's Wall, it suffered frequent attacks during the long Anglo-Scottish wars, once by Robert Bruce in person. The mortally sick King Edward I rested here for five months in 1306-7, shortly before his death on his final campaign.
The east end of the 13th-century church survives to its full height, housing within its dramatic triple tier of arches some fine monuments.

Iceland is sometimes called "The Land of Contrasts" for the rich, sharp colours of its mountains, rocks and vegetation, its dramatic waterfalls, glaciers and geysers, its massive ice and its hot springs for bathing and space heating. Iceland measures 103,000 km2 in area but less than one-quarter has any vegetation cover. Glaciers cover 12%, lava fields 11% and lakes 3%, while 54% is barren rock and sand.

30,000 Islands & Georgian Bay cruise -
With its spectacular glacier-smoothed islands of ancient Precambrian rock, its tenacious twisted pines, its secluded beaches of golden sand and its dramatic granite cliffs, Georgian Bay’s Thirty Thousand Islands region is one of Canada’s most breathtaking geographic areas. Now part of the new United Nations designated Georgian Bay Littoral Biosphere Reserve, this part of Georgian Bay is remarkable in not only its natural beauty, but also in its history, geology and wildlife.
almost sunset and rain is making its presence felt. but the view is still inviting. it's making its dramatic goodbye. where's the volcano? it's there. it's small (the smallest in our country) and submerged in water.

Masada (Hebrew for fortress) has become one of the Jewish people's greatest symbols as the place where the last Jewish stronghold against Roman invasion stood. Next to Jerusalem, it is the most popular destination of tourists visiting Israel.
Located on a 600 x 300m plateau atop an isolated rock cliff at the western end of the Judean Desert overlooking the Dead Sea.
It’s casemate wall (two parallel walls with partitions dividing the space between them into rooms), is 1400 m. long and 4 m. wide and was built along the edge of the plateau.
Three narrow, winding paths led from below to fortified gates and the water supply was guaranteed by a network of large, rock-hewn cisterns on the northwestern side of the hill.
On the east side, the rock falls in a sheer drop of about 450 meters to the Dead Sea and on the western edge it stands about 100 meters above the surrounding terrain.
More than two thousand years have passed since the fall of the Masada fortress yet the regional climate and its remoteness have helped to preserve the remains of its extraordinary story.
Herod the Great built the fortress of Masada between 37 and 31 BC and “furnished it as a refuge for himself.”
Some 75 years after Herod’s death, at the beginning of the Revolt of the Jews against the Romans in 66 AD, a group of Jewish rebels overcame the Roman garrison of Masada and affter the fall of Jerusalem and the destruction of the Temple (70 AD) they were joined by zealots and their families who had fled from Jerusalem.
For three years, they withstood the raiding and harassing Romans, but in 73 AD, the Romans established camps at the base of Masada, laid siege and having constructed a rampart of thousands of tons of stones and beaten earth against the western approaches of the fortress, in the spring of 74 AD they moved a battering ram up the ramp and breached the wall of the fortress.
Once it became apparent that Masada's walls would be breached all the Jewish defenders committed suicide rather than face the Roman conquerers.
The heroic story of Masada and its dramatic end attracted many explorers to the Judean desert in attempts to locate the remains of the fortress. The site was identified in 1842, but intensive excavations took place only in the mid-1960's.
To many Jews, Masada symbolizes the determination to be free in their own land.
"A serene coastal landscape from Little Beach in St. Martins, New Brunswick, Canada, captured on a foggy morning, August 19, 2023. The view stretches toward the misty sea, where the silhouette of kayakers in the distance adds a touch of intrigue to the tranquil scene. St. Martins, nestled along the Bay of Fundy, is celebrated for its dramatic tides, natural beauty, and the nearby Fundy Trail Parkway. This peaceful moment captures the quiet charm of New Brunswick's coastal wonders."

Westmorland Dales In The Yorkshire Dales National Park
This is an area of tremendous history and there are stone circles, remains from the romans and medieval villages to be found.
In the Mallerstang valley you will find the atmospheric ruins of Pendragon Castle with its reputed connection to Uther Pendragon – the father of King Arthur. Towering over the castle is Wild Boar Fell where Sir Richard de Musgrave is thought to have killed the last wild boar in Britain. There could be something in this as his tomb is in Kirkby Stephen church and, when it was examined, in addition to his bones there were two wild boar tusks.
More modern history was created by the building of railways. The Settle to Carlisle railway cuts through the Westmorland Dales as part of its dramatic journey through the Dales with its stunning examples of Victorian engineering. There was also Stainmore Railway which was built to bring coal from the Tees Valley over to Cumbria for use in making iron. Although this railway closed in the 1960s it has left some tremendous reminders of its existence such as the viaducts over Podgill and Smardale and the station at Kirkby Stephen East.

Pictured is a pink dogwood tree in bloom. The pink dogwood is the “rubra” variety of the flowering dogwood Cornus florida. It is in the Cornaceae family, a native species of eastern and central North America. Its dramatic appearance when flowering in the spring makes it a favorite garden plant. This specimen was seen in Cheltenham, outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

In October 2015, Holly & The Sacred Flame unveiled “Plague” at their Oddities performance. It was one of the most powerful, unnerving and artistic performances I have ever seen. Created from the ground up and brought to life in all its dramatic darkness. It wasn’t just the costumes that were spectacular but the very movements of the dance seemed to inspire fear and awe, beauty and the macabre. A few people didn’t understand but you didn’t have too, its art and sometimes not understanding art can be a good thing too. I was one of the few who got sneak peaks before the performance and I knew it would be pure gold followed by “I need to do this as a shoot in the backdrop of the forest”. Before I even saw one move I knew this was something we needed to explore further. It’s quite difficult to ask them to stop mid performance with questions like “hey, can you just hold that pose right there” lol or “Oooo oh…look at me lol.. Don’t think they would have appreciated it lol. Originally rescheduled due to weather, I’ve had these ideas roaming around in my head since October. In 2012 we all came together as a creative partnership intent on making beautiful things with beautiful people. We have become so much more. Sisters and soul mates, artists and muses, friends and companions all with the same wonderful visions of maybe just making the world brighter, making people think or feel something, anything. You wouldn’t believe how hard that is in this day with the constant assault of online media. Life is hard, but achieving happiness shouldn’t be hard if you surround yourself with the right people. I don’t know what I did to be blessed with so many loving and supportive sisters but I love them so very much….In love and art, we ascend, we bloom and we live forever in the warm embrace of each other.
Oddities 2016 is coming in October! If you missed the last one you probably shouldn’t miss this one, jus sayin.

The Aiguille du Dru, often referred to as Les Drus, is a striking granite peak in the Mont Blanc Massif of the French Alps. Towering at 3,754 meters (12,316 feet), it is renowned for its dramatic rock faces and challenging climbing routes. The mountain consists of two summits: the Grand Dru (3,754 m) and the Petit Dru (3,733 m), separated by the Brèche du Dru.
First Ascent
The first ascent of the Grand Dru was achieved on September 12, 1878, by British climbers Clinton Thomas Dent and James Walker Hartley, accompanied by Swiss guides Alexander Burgener and Kaspar Maurer. The Petit Dru was first climbed a year later, on August 29, 1879, by Jean Charlet-Straton, Prosper Payot, and Frédéric Folliguet. These early ascents marked the beginning of the Dru’s legendary status in alpine climbing.
Over the years, the Aiguille du Dru has been the site of numerous historic climbs, including the famous Bonatti Pillar, a route pioneered by Walter Bonatti in 1955. However, this iconic pillar was destroyed by a massive rockfall in 2005.
Today, the Dru remains a coveted challenge for climbers worldwide, offering some of the most technical and demanding routes in the Alps.
