When I was in Zurich for a few days at the beginning of July, I photographed this modern office building in the Seefeld. After equalising the perspective, I coloured the seagull flying by red. After all, the building is on Färberstrasse. Nomen est omen.
In a modern polder landscape there are more wind turbines than trees. To me it feels a little bit over the top .....
Cheers!

Auf Fototour mit Jörgenshaus und Hildegard Spickenbaum.
Trotz des schlechten Wetters hat es riesigen Spaß gemacht, mit beiden zusammen, Köln fotografisch zu erkunden. Dabei ist dieses Bild entstanden.
Watch the potholes mum!

Gannet - Morus Bassanus
Bempton Cliffs
The gannets are large white birds with yellowish heads; black-tipped wings; and long bills. Northern gannets are the largest seabirds in the North Atlantic, having a wingspan of up to 2 metres (6.6 ft). The other two species occur in the temperate seas around southern Africa, southern Australia and New Zealand.
Gannets hunt fish by diving into the sea from a height and pursuing their prey underwater. Gannets have a number of adaptations which enable them to do this:
no external nostrils, they are located inside the mouth instead;
air sacs in the face and chest under the skin which act like bubble wrapping, cushioning the impact with the water;
positioning of the eyes far enough forward on the face for binocular vision, allowing them to judge distances accurately.
Gannets can dive from a height of 30 metres (98 ft), achieving speeds of 100 kilometres per hour (62 mph) as they strike the water, enabling them to catch fish much deeper than most airborne birds.
The gannet's supposed capacity for eating large quantities of fish has led to gannet becoming a description of somebody with a voracious appetite.
Gannets are colonial breeders on islands and coasts, normally laying one chalky, blue egg. Gannets lack brood patches and they use their webbed feet to warm the eggs. It takes five years for gannets to reach maturity. First-year birds are completely black, and subsequent sub-adult plumages show increasing amounts of white.
The most important nesting ground for northern gannets is the United Kingdom with about two thirds of the world's population. These live mainly in Scotland, including the Shetland Isles. The rest of the world's population is divided between Canada, Ireland, Faroe Islands and Iceland, with small numbers in France (they are often seen in the Bay of Biscay), the Channel Islands, Norway and a single colony in Germany on Heligoland. The biggest northern gannet colony is on Scotland's Bass Rock; in 2014, this colony contained some 75,000 pairs. Sulasgeir off the coast of the Isle of Lewis, St. Kilda, Grassholm in Pembrokeshire, Bempton Cliffs in the East Riding of Yorkshire, Sceilig Bheag, Ireland and Bonaventure Island, Quebec are also important northern gannet breeding sites.
Young gannets were historically used as a food source, a tradition still practised in Ness, Scotland, where they are called guga. Like examples of continued traditional whale harvesting, the modern day hunting of gannet chicks results in great controversies as to whether it should continue to be afforded exemption from the ordinary protection afforded to sea birds in UK and EU law". The Ness hunt is currently limited to 2,000 chicks per year, and dates back at least to the Iron Age. The hunt is considered to be sustainable, as between 1902 and 2003 Gannet numbers in Scotland increased dramatically from 30,000 to 180,000.

"Stobnica Castle" is a modern structure, the construction of which began in 2015. It is a facility located on an artificial island on a lake protected under the "Natura 2000" program. In 2018, the construction was revealed and caused controversy. By the decision of the Court in Poznań in 2021, the construction was suspended, but in 2022 the Provincial Administrative Court in Warsaw overturned it. Construction is still ongoing.

"Zamek w Stobnicy" jest budowlą współczesną, którego budowę rozpoczęto w roku 2015. Jest to obiekt zlokalizowany na sztucznej wyspie jeziora chronionego w ramach programu "Natura 2000". W 2018 roku budowa została upubliczniona i wywołała kontrowersje. Decyzją Sądu w Poznaniu w 2021 roku budowę wstrzymano, ale w 2022 Wojewódzki Sąd Administracyjny w Warszawie uchylił i budowa jest nadal kontynuowana.
Dieses ausgefallene, qualitativ hochwertige Gebäude wurde vom namhaften Architektenbüro Arkitema Achitects entworfen und trägt den Namen "Sort Sol", zu deutsch "Schwarze Sonne".
The witch in the course of time, now the modern way :P

Turning away from Hong Kong island, I looked over to the small outcrop of towers that make up this part of West Kowloon. Hiding just behind 'The Arch' is the ginormous tower where I was staying. I guess even the tallest of buildings can find hiding places.
The West Kowloon station building wraps around back on itself and links to the shopping centre over by those big towers. The time difference in building really shows: the modern station being all glass and curves, the towers all blocky and drab.
