Blutenburg Castle
is an old ducal country seat in the west of Munich, Germany, on the banks of river Würm.
The castle was built between two arms of the River Würm for Duke Albert III, Duke of Bavaria in 1438–39 as a hunting-lodge, replacing an older castle burned down in war.
The main building became derelict during the Thirty Years War, but was rebuilt in 1680–81.
The castle is still surrounded by a ring wall with four towers.

A city long abandoned and claimed by the surrounding lush vegetation is slowly being choked to rubble, returning it to the earth it was from.

A shot taken at Cromer on the North Norfolk Coast UK. These steps over the wooden groynes have often caught my eye but the tide was never high enough when i've been there. I originally composed the steps central to the frame from a higher perpective but wandered down a little to capture this.
266/365
I am breathless even with every breath, i am confined but i am free, i am restricted while my shackles are broken.
Today me and my little brother went to the quarry in my town for a few hours and shot this. We were stuck in so much rain and we slipped so many times and god was it fun. I miss getting wet on the ground in hope that i get a picture i half like, i've really missed it.
Thank you Declan for helping me, this 365 would not be the same without you.

Once I was in a Rikshaw, its name was” Santiniketan” which was very odd as these paddle pushers are not that literate at all. The ride was long and we started talking about many things. At some point he asked me “what brings the beauty of a river?” I didn’t know this; he answered “it’s the sail of a boat”.
I was fascinated by boats since my childhood. I grew up in a small town called Barisal which is situated near a beautiful river Kirtonkhola. From small wooden made to giant steel made; Kirtonkhola attracted me with an interesting traffic. It’s a thrill to ride on them, its soothing to be in that smooth journey.
Bangladesh has a distinct marine tradition. Based on geography, there are two kinds of boats, the river boat and the sea going boat. Sea going boats were influenced by the Chinese, Arabian & other different nations. But the river going boat was built on indigenous knowledge alone. This also evolved as technology advanced.
Bangladesh has many rivers and water is everywhere. Boat is a primary transportation in many parts of the country. In old days, colourful decorative boats dazzled the waterlines. The shape and colour also varies in place to place.
There is no tradition of pre construction drawing of the boat building. The knowledge has been passed from generation to generations. Wooden boats are repaired, new boats created with steel-body. Wooden ones too have adopted motor engines removing their colourful sails. Traditional skills of making wooden boats are simply vanishing.
New breeds of vassals will dominate our waters, I am sure if not we but the river will miss the colourful gentle wooden boats which it carried so long.

Mon forum favori - www.zonereflex.fr - organise régulièrement des soirées "club"... nous nous réunissons vitruellement via skype pour discuter photo autour d'un thème.
En mai, c'était "Les parallèles".
Voici une de mes propositions.
Parallel layers of shadowy mountains progressively lit by the rising sun in Blue Ridge National Park NC. Took a short trip to Asheville and Little Switzerland with my girls in August. Didn't get much weather cooperation for photography but we had a wonderful time stuffing ourselves at Asheville's many terrific restaurants, gem panning near the old McKinney mine in Little Switzerland, hiking around Linville Falls and Duggars Creek and enjoying the sights. On the last morning I left the girls sleeping in and drove up to Beacon Heights to hopefully get some morning color. There was a layer of cloud hanging too low in just the wrong spot for it to really color up, so I pulled out the telephoto to catch some of the early light catching the low lying fog.
All in all a great but too short road trip before the back-to-school grind. I will always enjoy the memories living in that carefree parallel universe for a few days.
The Stour Valley Line between Birmingham and Wolverhampton follows the route of Thomas Telford's Birmingham New Main Line Canal, which was completed in 1838, fourteen years before the opening of the competing railway line. The proximity of the railway to the canal is well illustrated at Dudley Port, where on a bright February day in 1984 an unidentified Class 310 EMU is seen calling at the station with a Birmingham New Street - Wolverhampton local service.
