Not sure about this one, nevertheless..;-)

back to autumn walk

Redmi Note 4 was an entry level cellphone. However I found it a very reasonable device to make close-ups.

Happy Spring to everyone!

All you see is just the interpretation of incentives that come from the eyes... Maybe life is an illusion?

En esta instantánea aparecen tres superficies que se cruzan, pero que no se cortan.

 

La inferior corresponde al Barranco o Rambla del Poyo. Conocemos ya este curso de agua y su evolución, como fenómeno de endorreísmo, al desembocar en la Albufera. En la imagen este barranco se sitúa a caballo entre Catarroja (a la derecha) y Massanassa (a la izquierda).

 

En la parte superior tenemos una carretera, que en Google Maps, se corresponde con el Carrer del Poliesportiu.

 

Y por ultimo, y en medio, está el puente para ferrocarril, con nuestro querido tren de Cercanías de Renfe, que ha partido de la estación de Catarroja y se dirige hacia la de Massanassa (<----|) desplazándose hacia la izquierda.

 

Por su longitud, no cabe en el puente. O se fotografía la parte delantera, o un segmento de su longitud intermedia, o solo su parte trasera.

 

En este caso vemos la parte trasera del tren y además se aprecia el movimiento horizontal del mismo.

Flipped puddle reflections.

Thanks for stopping by and have a pleasant Sunday.

light spills into the hallway, soft and weightless. the man walks, his steps blurred, barely touching the ground. the woman kneels, lost in something unseen. reflections stretch across the glass, bending reality. everything feels distant, like a memory slipping away.

A Mirror Image (in a plane mirror) is a reflected duplication of an object that appears almost identical, but is reversed in the direction perpendicular to the mirror surface. As an optical effect it results from reflection off from substances such as a mirror or water. It is also a concept in geometry and can be used as a conceptualization process for 3-D structures. Two-dimensional mirror images can be seen in the reflections of mirrors or other reflecting surfaces, or on a printed surface seen inside-out.

 

If we first look at an object that is effectively two-dimensional (such as the writing on a card) and then turn the card to face a mirror, the object turns through an angle of 180° and we see a left-right reversal in the mirror. In this example, it is the change in orientation rather than the mirror itself that causes the observed reversal. Another example is when we stand with our backs to the mirror and face an object that's in front of the mirror. Then we compare the object with its reflection by turning ourselves 180°, towards the mirror. Again we perceive a left-right reversal due to a change in our orientation. So, in these examples the mirror does not actually cause the observed reversals.

 

Trinity Bridge (Troitskiy Most) is a bascule bridge across the Neva in Saint Petersburg. It connects Kamennoostrovsky Prospect with Suvorov Square. It was the third permanent bridge across the Neva, built between 1897 and 1903 by the French firm Société de Construction des Batignolles. It is 582 meters (1,909 ft) long and 23.6 meters (77 ft) wide. The bridge takes its name from the Old Trinity Cathedral which used to stand at its northern end. In the 20th century, it was known as Equality Bridge (1918–1934) and Kirovsky Bridge (1934–1999).

 

In 1803, the Voskresensky ponton bridge, which was built in 1786 near Voskresensky Prospect (now Chernyshevsky Prospect), was moved to the Summer Garden. In 1825, the pontoon Suvorovsky Bridge was built to link Suvorov Square with Troitskaya (Trinity) Square. In 1892, a contest for constructing a permanent Troitsky Bridge was announced. There were 16 entrants from local and European engineers, including one from the French engineer Gustave Eiffel, the creator of the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris. The winner was the out-of-competition conception by Paul-Joseph Bodin aided by Arthur Flachet, Vincent Chabrol, and Claude Patouillard from the French Société de Construction des Batignolles. Some contributions to their proposal were provided by a team of local engineers. A special commission from the Imperial Academy of Arts, including Leon Benois also participated in the project. Construction began on 12 August 1897. Félix Faure, the president of France was present at the ceremony. In the same political spirit, Nicholas II laid the foundation stone for the Pont Alexandre III in Paris, another memorial to the Franco-Russian Alliance. The bridge was completed in 1903, in time for the 200-year anniversary of Saint Petersburg.

 

Originally the bridge had nine spans. Five of these were permanent metallic riveted spans, with novel console-arch-beam systems and gradually increasing span length from banks to the middle of the river. A three-arch granite viaduct linked the metallic central section to the right bank, and a two-winged bascule span joined it to the left bank. The design of the central spans, in which single uncut girders bridge more than one span, significantly relieves the stress on the central part of the arches, decreasing the support required in the river and giving the span structures a gentle arch shape. The bridge is decorated with cast iron gratings with artistic casting, granite pylons with lanterns and metallic three-colour lanterns in the Art Nouveau style. The obelisks flanking the entrance to the bridge from Suvorov Square were remodeled in 1955. In 1965–1967 the bascule span was rebuilt as a one-winged, lifting design. Its length was extended to 43 meters (141 ft) and its appearance modelled on the other metal spans. A granite arch slope was set on the left bank. During the reconstruction water slopes were enlarged and granite benches were set along left bank abutment.
