Fu costruito nel 1316 dal conte Francesco I di Ventimiglia. Fu edificato sul sito di una precedente fortificazione quadrata, sul colle San Pietro e sui resti dell'antica città bizantina di Ypsigro.
Tra il 1454 e il 1456 il castello venne ampliato da Giovanni di Ventimiglia. Restaurò anche la cappella del castello per renderla idonea ad ospitare una reliquia del patrono di Castelbuono, il teschio di Sant'Anna.
Nel 1683 la famiglia Ventimiglia trasferì la cappella nella sede attuale e la fece riccamente decorare in stile barocco dai fratelli Serpotta.

«Фасады Андреевской церкви по замыслу архитектора богато украшены сложным рельефным декором, лепными наличниками окон, ниш и входных дверей, чугунными литыми позолоченными капителями пилястр и колонн, картушами кокошников и наличников. Нарастая снизу вверх, пышность убранства восхищает разнообразием цветовой гаммы, богатством позолоты рельефных деталей. Силуэт храма четко вырисовывается на фоне неба. Бирюзово-белый цвет стен, изящные декоративные купола, далеко отстоящие от центрального купола; маковки, увенчанные ажурными позолоченными крестами — все это и создает образ легкости, изящества, высокой гармонии с окружающей природой.» / Ирина Бекетова/

Located on the northern end of Kailua Bay which I mentioned in an earlier posting is Mokapu Point on the island of Oahu, Mokapu Point is itself a portion of the former caldera of the prehistoric Ko’olau Volcano. This image taken from Kailua Beach. Mokapu Point lies within the confines of the Marine Corps Base Hawaii and is off limits except to military or for authorized biological studies of the Red-Footed Boobies who have a colony there and other wildlife. Even though not evident here, when out in the water in our kayak paddling towards the Mokes, the caldera formation is very evident from further out in the water unfortunately it is the ocean so I was unable to capture a steady shot from the kayak of the caldera rim as we were in the ocean the waters were not very conducive to pausing the paddling, stopping and framing an image. - - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #omsystem @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot @oahu_hawaiii @visit.hawaii #oahu #mokapu

Medieval Martvili Monastery or Chkondidi is located not far from Martvili. The monastery dates back to the VII century and belongs to the tetraconchus temples. The original view of the church was changed after the invasion in 736. The monastery served as a burial vault for the kings and at one time was one of the main religious centers of the Megrelia region.
The main temple of the monastery is the Assumption of the Virgin that is perfectly preserved to the present day. The walls of the church are decorated with frescoes of the XIV – XVII centuries, which were partially damaged over the centuries. Initially, the temple had a small dome, which, after reconstruction, was replaced by a larger one.
To the northern part of the fence adjoins the X century church, with a burial found under the church. To the south-west of the central temple is a pillar of 20 meters height. The staircase leads to a small church. To the north-east of the temple there is located a chapel, which was built later.

Located within Lassen Volcanic National Park at 8,714 feet of altitude is Reading Peak which actually is small plug dome volcano located about 2.5 miles from Mount Lassen in Shasta County in California. Mount Lassen for whom the national park was named last erupted in the early Twentieth Century. My sweet damsel and I camped within this amazing national park several years back which sadly suffered damage from the Dixie wildland fire that ravaged the lake Almanor area. - [ ] #developportdev @gothamtomato @developphotonewsletter @omsystem.cameras #excellent_america #omsystem @bheventspace @bhphoto @adorama @tamracphoto @tiffencompany #usaprimeshot @nationalparkservice @lassennps @visitcalifornia
