King Tides, the term is non-scientific and refers to when the moon, sun and Earth align at their closest points and the gravitational pull on the Earth is the greatest. This happens for three day periods during the months of November, December, and January. We finally had a break in the weather and went in January to shoot these big waves at high tide. This is at Shore Acres down by Coos Bay.

Opening. I will post another shot when it is fully open. It is a very large flower - perfect for drying when it 'Dies'. :)

Male Monarch Butterfly, Danaus plexippus, on Tropical Milkweed, Asclepias curassavica. Single image of the same individual who drifted in the breeze in the earlier artsy abstract, on the same plant that had earlier attracted our mystery wasp, both in the comments.

In Nature, everyone takes a turn. Happy Wing Wednesday!

Von allen historischen Bahnhöfen Londons hat King’s Cross die schönste Konstruktion – zwei einfache wie elegante Stahl- und Glasgewölbe überdachen die achtgleisigen Hallen.

Im Zuge der Vorbereitungen für die Olympischen Sommerspiele 2012 wurde das Londoner Architekturbüro John McAslan + Partners mit der Sanierung und baulichen Erweiterung der über die Jahre arg verkommenen Station beauftragt.

Weite Bereiche von King`s Cross sind denkmalgeschützt.

In zwei Bauabschnitten wurden die Bahnhofshallen gesäubert und neu verglast, sowie die beiden Western und Eastern Range Buildings behutsam saniert bzw. modernisiert.

Der dritte Bauabschnitt, und Höhepunkt der Baumaßnahmen, ist der Western Concourse mit seinem geschwungenen Stahl- und Glasdach, welches freistehend vor dem historischen Western Range Building neu errichtet wurde.

Unter dem sich bis zu 20 m aufschwingenden halbkreisförmigen Dach, mit einer Spannweite von 52 m und einem Durchmesser von 130 m, befindet sich der neue Bahnhofseingang.

Das – gemäß dem Architekten – größte freitragende Bahnhofsdach Europas zeichnet sich durch eine zentrale weiße Stahlfachwerkstütze aus, die wie bei einem Pilz vertikal emporstrebt und sich dann elegant in die Horizontale auffächert.

Der Außenkranz der circa 1.000 t schweren Dachkonstruktion liegt auf sechzehn Baumstützen, die einzeln je eine Last von 60 t aufnehmen.
