NOON, the best shapes in SL

" And I shall have some peace there, For peace comes dropping slow,
Dropping from the veil of morn, To where the cricket sings,
Where midnights all a glimmer, And noon a purple glow,
And evenings filled with linnets wings "
{William Butler Yeats}
This stream comes from a spring that cascades out from under a boulder high up on the ridge in the distance. It plays it own special music as it tumbles down the mountain where it joins many other such streams, eventually forming the great Vartry river which enters the port of Wicklow 20 miles to the south east.
The lone Mountain Ash stands and watches its passing as it has done for so many years.
A wild and a beautiful place.

With a special excursion train in tow, Nickel Plate Road 765 steams through Somme Woods in Northbrook, Illinois. 765 is a 2-8-4 "Berkshire" type steam locomotive built in 1944 by the Lima Locomotive Works. Retired from service in 1958, 765 was restored in 1979 by the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society.

At noon, the thin air smeared warm and sultry on the earth already parched with dryness. The hardest task was finding a shadow stamp and a gust of wind...

A mezzogiorno, l'aria rarefatta spalmava caldo e afa sulla terra già arsa dalla secchezza. Il compito più arduo era trovare un francobollo d'ombra e un refolo di vento.

Notre-Dame de Thierenbach, à 2 km de Soultz jouit d'un site incomparable au pied du Vieil Armand et du Grand Ballon. De style baroque, les origines de ce haut-lieu de pèlerinage marial remontent au 8ème siècle (730). Elle fut fondée par les moines bénédictins de Murbach venus d'Irlande. En 1125, un jeune noble de Soultz, atteint de maladie incurable, y fut miraculeusement guéri. Cinq ans plus tard, en 1130, Pierre le Vénérable, abbé de Cluny y fonde un prieuré bénédictin, supprimé par la Révolution. L'église actuelle, de style baroque autrichien, fut construite en 1723 par Peter THUMB. Elle devint l'église paroissiale de Jungholtz en 1881 et fut érigée en Basilique mineure par Pie XI en 1936. En 1980 furent fêtées les solennités du 1250ème anniversaire de la création du Pèlerinage. De nombreux ex-votos offerts pour accompagner une demande ou un remerciement à la Vierge tapissent les murs de l'église. Plus de 800 existent encore aujourd'hui. Le plus ancien, date de 1680. La basilique de Thierenbach possède un orgue Didier Fisher Krämer, datant de 1923. De nombreux concerts d'orgue sont proposés tout au long de l'année.
Rediscovered this one last night. Had forgotten about it, though I'm not sure how as I took it on a wonderful walk through a previously unfamiliar part of London (Bermondsey) that also yielded this shot amongst others: flic.kr/p/Jqo72W.
Golden Pass Express , a view from the window...Paysage hivernal vaudois. Les Dents du Midi ...ü!
Wellcome to Wallis no.7213.
The Dents du Midi (French: "teeth of noon")[3] are a multi-summited mountain situated in the Chablais Alps in the Swiss canton of Valais. They are composed of seven distinct summits and reach a height of 3257 metres (10,686 feet). Highest mountain between Lake Geneva and the Mont Blanc Massif, they dominate the Val-d'Illiez and the Rhône Valley, from Martigny down to the lake. Together with the slightly lower Tour Sallière, they form a cirque around the Lac de Salanfe, an artificial reservoir. Geologically it makes up a part of the massif Haut-Giffre.
Les dents du Midi sont un chaînon montagneux de trois kilomètres de long, situé dans le Chablais valaisan, dans le canton du Valais en Suisse. Dominant le val d'Illiez et la vallée du Rhône, au sud, elles font face au lac de Salanfe, une retenue artificielle, et font partie de l'ensemble géologique du massif du Giffre.
Die Dents du Midi bilden eine Bergkette in den Savoyer Voralpen (Westalpen), nordwestlich von Martigny im Kanton Wallis, Schweiz. Die 2 km lange Bergkette umfasst sieben etwa gleich hohe Felsgipfel, nämlich von West nach Ost die Haute Cime (mit 3'258 m ü. M. die höchste Erhebung), Doigt de Salanfe (3'210 m ü. M.), Doigt de Champéry (3'200 m ü. M.), Dent Jaune (3'186 m ü. M.), Eperon (3'114 m ü. M.), Cathédrale (3'160 m ü. M.) und Cime de l'Est (3'178 m ü. M.).

Only one after noon, sky mostly grey in grey, late afternoon some blue sky, just not enough time to take pictures, evaluate them and then come back and improv on them.
There are three of them, one for living and two commercial buildings with many businesses. This is a realtor’s dream, location, location and location.
But photographing them is more of a challenge. There is a limited choice of locations. To take them all, just from the other side of the river Rhine (Rechts Reihnisch. Or as a panorama from behind. Other than this from the bride, Severinsbrücke, from the floor. But they are huge, even with very wide angel from the floor, there is either not enough space, some other buildings, or converging lines.
Designed by Hadi Teherani, the won several prices.
This view is in front of the elevator / stairs part of the building

This are just some nice shadows I saw in Luzern at the Vierwaldstättersee around noon. I liked how they lined up almost perfectly. I took this on my small Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ101 at 9.1 mm, f/6.3, 1/800 s, ISO 125.
Gazania flowers (Gazania rigens /Mittagsgold) on the terrace 😄 For a sunny weekend ☀️
They only look like this in the hours around noon, hence the German name 'Mittagsgold' (Midday Gold). The rest of the day the blossoms are closed.

Explore Worthy, Challenge 119 - Light & Shadows SOOC (2020 Art)
Drawing a perfect circle in one continuous line was a sign
of mastery. Rembrandt did it in one of his latest self-portraits.
Noguchi however, did the opposite. Read what he wrote
about Sun a Noon.
The assembly technique, no doubt with industrial help, is related
to Noguchi's activity as a designer. Some of his furniture, like
his famous glass coffee table and his paper lanterns, are still in production and very popular.
Auflaufendes Wasser: klasse! Sonne: tolles Licht! Vögel: aktiv und vorhanden!
.... denkste - die Sonne war gnadenlos: bei diesem Bild ist flirren der Luft sogar schön, doch bei der näheren Porträtierung der Seevögel war sie extrem hinderlich, da keine scharfen Fotos im Kasten landeten, trotz bestmöglichem und auch erfolgreichem Anschleichen. In der Naturfotografie muss man mit den Bedingungen der Natur umgehen lernen. Ebbe und Flut kann man nicht mal eben im Touribüro bei gutem weichen Licht bestellen. Man lernt nie aus :-).
