Das Kaverliershaus wurde schon 1804 errichtet, 1824/25 erweitert. Es diente zur Unterbringung der Gäste und des Dienstpersonals. Seit 1825 wird es auch das Danziger Haus genannt, da die verzierenden Fassadenteile aus Danzig von einem dortigen Haus mittels
Lastkähnen zur Pfaueninsel gebracht wurden. Bereits vorher (vor 1480) sollen diese Fassadenteile schon in Nürnberg (seit 1360) ein Haus verziert haben, und zuvor in Venedig hergestellt worden sein soll. Die Bausubstanz des Kavaliershauses ist heute schlecht, eine Sanierung für dien nächsten Jahre angekündigt. Das Haus wird heute von zwei Familien
bewohnt und kann daher nicht innen besichtigt werden. (Quelle: www.berliner-verkehrsseiten.de/pfaueninsel/ )
The Cavalier House was built as early as 1804 and extended in 1824/25. It served as accommodation for guests and service personnel. Since 1825 it has also been called the Dantzig House, because the decorative façade parts were removed from a house in there and brought to Peacock Island by barges. It is said that these parts of the façade had already decorated a house in Nuremberg (since 1360), and that they had previously been made in Venice. The building condition of the Cavalier House is poor today, a renovation is announced for the next years. Today two families live in the house.

The gardening and architectural design of 67-hectare Peacock Island began at the end of the 18th century under King Frederick William II and his mistress Wilhelmine Encke. They had the small summer palace and a dairy constructed in a picturesque building style resembling a monastery gone to ruin, based on English and French models, with references to an ancient Roman style as well.
Modeled on islands in the South Pacific discovered approximately 20 years before, exotic trees and plants gradually took root on this island – as did the colorful peacocks and menagerie completing the exoticism of Peacock Island. However, most of its animals were given to the zoological garden in Berlin in 1842, which led to the foundation of the current zoo.
Later, during the era of Queen Luise, the island was transformed into an aesthetically stylized ornamental mock farm, but with farming practices intended to yield profits at the same time. The project was abandoned shortly thereafter, and Peter Joseph Lenné designed a picturesque landscape park in its place.
Today, Peacock Island – its palace, dairy and the other park buildings, its charming footpaths with beautiful views, nearly 400 old oaks and the oldest rose garden in Berlin – is a popular destination for leisurely strolls in peaceful surroundings. The island is part of the UNESCO World Heritage and is a protected flora and fauna habitat.
Peacock Island is a world-renowned example of garden design. Please help us to maintain the park as a place of culture and recreation.

I sometimes tint the smoke to match the object, but in this case I had the smoke done already and liked the colors so I tinted the color of the original glass. One flip of the smoke, coloring, and a little fractalius processing to sharpen it up.

This would be a rather ordinary photo of Orion's belt except for the unidentified object that appears in the left-center quarter of the frame (near to the Flame Nebula and Zeta Orionis/Alnitak). That green streak isn't an airplane and I'm pretty certain that it isn't a simple digital artifact (cosmic ray striking the camera sensor?). The only other possibilities I can think of are either a meteor or a flare from an earth orbiting satellite. My guess would be that it is a meteor with the green color being caused by the nickel-metal content in the meteor itself (apparently that is the color you get with meteors that have a high nickel content).
[UPDATE] Yes, this is a meteor. In fact, it is a member of the Orionid Meteor Shower that peaked on Oct 21/22 of this year. If you trace the path back up toward the top of the frame then you will eventually arrive at the so-called radiant point of the Orionids. Also, the Orionid meteors are known for their green color. The Orionids are associated with Halley's Comet, so you're seeing a piece of this famous comet being vaporized in our atmosphere. [/UPDATE]
The green tint of this object was vividly apparent in the raw, unprocessed image, but I have no way of knowing whether the color was completely natural or whether it was caused by the capture technique or some other unknown factor.
The meteor is best seen in the Flickr light box (press the "L" key to toggle the light box, or better yet click on the "View all sizes" menu item to see the image at its largest size).
This two-minute-long, single-frame exposure also recorded the Flame Nebula, a faint outline of the Horsehead Nebula, the reflection nebula M78, and the Running Man Nebula (bottom edge center).
Captured on October 22, 2011 at 2:01AM PDT from a moderately dark-sky location using a Nikon D5100 DSLR (ISO 3200, 2 minute exposure) and an AF Nikkor 50mm 1:1.8D lens set to aperture f/2.8. Tracking provided by a hand-driven, barn-door type mount (two boards, a hinge, and a screw you turn by hand).

Inspired by the 'found material art' movement of the 1970s, I composed a carburetor item in wood-panels (approx. 1976). Recently, I restored this piece and adopted the color setting
In 1996, Southern Water began work on a reservoir at Testwood to store water for people living in and around Southampton. Excavations on site revealed a significant amount of prehistoric activity. This bone object was found near a section of Iron Age revetment.

While my wife was making a hospital visit, I took a few minutes at the community park.
There she was, on the stage of the amphitheater. It must've been a brutal concert! There was Barbie, torn asunder on the stage. Apologies for the grusome sight!
After I posted this shot, I noticed that the rough edges at the top of the objects (I still don't know what they are—jars of some kind?) make it look as though I've done a bad cut-and-paste job in Photoshop. In fact, there was no cutting or pasting involved: the rough edges are part of the jars themselves. They're ceramic and are very irregular on top for some reason—something to do with their construction.
The black background is a result of the lighting. The room was very dark, but the jars were lit quite strongly.
Addendum: My brother suggests that the objects are candle holders. Seems reasonable to me.

Okay, i admit that this is not a very artistic image or whatsoever, nor it is a magnificient landscape or a great portrait. But it's about Everyday Objects! This is my contribution to the DIP-It Thursday theme 'everyday objects'.
I didnt like the pictures too much, so i might overedited them. I was thinking of something different in my mind. But I didnt have too much time today nor tommorrow. Certainly not tommorrow =) (Check why here)

Notes: newspaper slug on back: Famed photographer Edward Steichen, right, discussed his life and work with Charles Collingwood on CBS Chronicle series at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday on KLZ-TV. Edward Steichen is one of the greatest photographers of the 20th century. Born in Luxemburg in 1879, his parents emigrated to the USA when he was three. He led several lives: in the late 19th century, he worked with Alfred Stieglitz and contributed to the establishment of photography as an art medium. In the early 1900s, he went to France and became the official photographer of sculptor Auguste Rodin; he then took some of the world's most iconic photographs (Rodin's Balzac - Rodin & Le Penseur - The Thinker). He was back in France in 1917 as the US Army head of photography. Back in the States he shot what is considered the first fashion photograph of art history and went on to become one of the leading fashion photographers of his time. From 1947 to 1962, he was the head of the photography department at the MOMA in New York. He died in 1973, aged 93

Ok thats the story! I went to my surrounding area, because the weather was good to take some pictures. I found this nice place all over Graz which provided a great view with these nice sunbeams spotting down.
So I was searching for an object to put it in front, because I learned "you always need to have an object". :)
Now, there wasn't anything interesting even close.. so I abused my car. Actually it wasn't well prepared, no cleaning since months and even still this ugly box on the roof from my latest holidays.
Anyway I am quite pleased with the result, It gives the impression of being in holidays, even because the ugly box is on top. ;)

None of This Was Real is a series of oil paintings that portrays fictional scenes of objects randomly generated by a computer program. These objects are a product of code written by the artist and rendered using a global illumination ray tracing engine. They are effectively subjects for still life. But there was never any life – any reality – in the subjects. Everything was virtual and simulated.
The software for creating the reference images was written in Processing (processing.org), with the additional help of toxiclibs (toxiclibs.org) for geometry creation and Sunflow (sunflow.sourceforge.net) for the global illumination rendering engine.
