The Gūr-i Amīr or Guri Amir (Amir Temur maqbarasi), is a mausoleum of the Asian conqueror Timur (also known as Tamerlane) in Samarkand, Uzbekistan. It occupies an important place in the history of Persian-Mongolian Architecture as the precursor and model for later great Mughal architecture tombs, including Gardens of Babur in Kabul, Humayun's Tomb in Delhi and the Taj Mahal in Agra, built by Timur's Persianised descendants, the ruling Mughal dynasty of North India. It has been heavily restored.
Gur-e Amir is Persian for "Tomb of the King". This architectural complex with its azure dome contains the tombs of Tamerlane, his sons Shah Rukh and Miran Shah and grandsons Ulugh Beg and Muhammad Sultan. Also honoured with a place in the tomb is Timur's teacher Sayyid Baraka.
The earliest part of the complex was built at the end of the 14th century by the orders of Muhammad Sultan. Now only the foundations of the madrasah and khanaka, the entrance portal and a part of one of four minarets remains.
The construction of the mausoleum itself began in 1403 after the sudden death of Muhammad Sultan, Tamerlane's heir apparent and his beloved grandson, for whom it was intended. Timur had built himself a smaller tomb in Shahrisabz near his Ak-Saray palace. However, when Timur died in 1405 on campaign on his military expedition to China, the passes to Shahrisabz were snowed in, so he was buried here instead. Ulugh Beg, another grandson of Tamerlane, completed the work. During his reign the mausoleum became the family crypt of the Timurid Dynasty.
Thank you all so much for your visits!

Take a little walk to the edge of town
And go across the tracks
Where the viaduct looms like a bird of doom
As it shifts and cracks
Where secrets lie in the border fires
In the humming wires
You know ya never coming backt

You and I in a little toy shop
Buy a bag of balloons with the money we've got
Set them free at the break of dawn
'Til one by one they were gone
Back at base bugs in the software
Flash the message "something's out there!"
Floating in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine red balloons
Floating in the summer sky
Panic bells, it's red alert
There's something here from somewhere else
The war machine springs to life
Opens up one eager eye
Focusing it on the sky
Where ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine decision street
Ninety-nine ministers meet
To worry, worry, super scurry
Call the troops out in a hurry
This is what we've waited for
This is it, boys, this is war
The president is on the line
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine knights of the air
Ride super high-tech jet fighters
Everyone's a super hero
Everyone's a captain Kirk
With orders to identify
To clarify and classify
Scramble in the summer sky
Ninety-nine red balloons go by
As ninety-nine red balloons go by
Ninety-nine dreams I have had
In every one a red balloon
It's all over and I'm standing pretty
In this dust that was a city
If I could find a souvenir
Just to prove the world was here
And here is a red balloon
I think of you, and let it go

I had an epic road trip for work today. I only managed to stop a couple of times on the way home - this was taken near Oatlands, central Tasmania. The clouds were really doing some amazing things and needed to be photographed. I've photographed this tree before - it owns the hillside and keeps an eye out on the surrounding farmland.

suitable for high bay warehouse and logistic center, such as an Amazon logistic center ...
due to more and more orders in the mail order business, truck traffic is increasing significantly and the space required for logistics centers will be enormous in the future, soil sealing by ugly rectangular buildings, which we can not afford environmentally, retail is destroyed and our beautiful city centers fall dead ...

anyway, this is a hall of a museum, which I like best ...

A throwback to 2015 and a group of snappers scramble for position at Barnetby station just 3 months before the signals were decommissioned, in an attempt to bag a few final shots from this one-time semaphore mecca.
The secondary subject on this occasion is DB Cargo Shed 66132, seen here working an iron ore empties from Scunthorpe back to Immingham Dock to collect yet another load for the hungry steelworks' blast furnaces.
Plenty of heat-haze coming off the loco which, despite the box wagons being empty, still looks like it's putting in a shift.

Our coffee shop next door has finally reopened. Our world as we know it has permanently changed. But at least we can have some kind of normal and enjoy the odd moment pretending everything was back the way it was.

No sprays are used in my gardens, natural orders and cycles left to establish themselves. Yes, it means that the occasional leaf gets a chomping - but it also means I get to see some fascinating things such as these cool characters - bottlebrush sawfly larvae lined up for lunch.
Seen feeding on native Callistemon citrinus. This grouping was on both sides of the leaf, you can just see the others poking up behind. I found it really interesting that the two sets on either side had remained in sync, perfectly lined up, skeletonizing the leaf at equal speeds.
Specifically, perhaps these are Pterygophorus cinctus.

Christmas tree plantation.
Nobody really knows what the end of year festivities will look like this year, but hopefully they will still include trees.
So very happy to be expanding my blog into doing home & decor recently. Still learning a lot, but I am really excited to be blogging for Builder's Box. Pre-orders for August open now!
The Cathedral was constructed at the orders of King William II and is located in the city of Palermo. The whole area is made up of mosaic workmanship using glass tesserae in the Byzantine style. In total the area covered by mosaic work add up to 6,500 m2.
The East Apse shown here features the central image of Christ Pantokrater or Christ Almighty. All of the work inside depicts stories from the Old and New Testament.
Set of three images with the last one being a close up so that you can see the individual tiles.
