The Baker Hotel Lobby, Mineral Wells, Texas.

 

The Baker Hotel, an infamous landmark here in Texas, was built in the late 1920's in Mineral Wells, a town of about 30,000 people (at the time) about an hour and a half west of Dallas by hotel magnate T.B. Baker. For a town of this size, the Baker was an absolute mammoth of a Hotel, and completely dominated the skyline at the time, as it does to this very day.

 

I use the term "infamous" because of all the ghost stories surrounding this hotel. It's widely regarded as the most haunted place in Texas, and one of the most haunted in the country. You can learn more about the Baker's undead residents here.

 

So why would a modest little Texas town like Mineral Wells suddenly need a massive, 450 room luxury resort hotel in the middle of it? The answer is in the name of the town itself; the mineral wells located there, the water from which was regarded at the time as a cure for a whole range of illnesses, such as rheumatism and epilepsy.

 

For a time, the Baker became just what it's creators had envisioned; a huge resort hotel and retreat for the health-conscious well-to-do from all over the country. In it's heyday, it hosted such celebrities as Marlene Dietrich, Dorothy Lamour, Will Rodgers, Pat Boone, Tom Mix, Clyde Barrow, Jack Dempsey, Roy Rodgers, and the Three Stooges. Likewise, the Baker attracted some of the most popular musical acts of the day, such as Lawrence Welk and Guy Lombardo.

 

Around 1933, Mr. Baker passed ownership of the hotel to his nephew Earl Baker, who operated the hotel for the next 30 years. Earl had always said that when he turned 70, he would close down the Baker, and sure enough that's exactly what he did on April 30th, 1963. In 1967, Earl was found lying on the floor, succumbing to a heart attack.

 

In 1965, under the guidance of a group of local leaders, the Baker was reopened, but sadly, her time had passed, and she was closed again in 1972, this time for good.

Background: aluminum kitchen sink with drops of water on it. Foreground: a coffee cup in the sink below the faucet, filled with water, with a floating purple flower.

 

This is my first attempt to capture drops of water, without any high-speed photography equipment, just a simple sony dsc-h2 camera. I was trying to capture a decent one for more than half an hour. After a few minutes' efforts, the sound of the dripping water gets in your head, but you get the rhythm right, it helps... ;)

 

This photo is cropped (i wouldn't dare to shoot in macro mode with the lens exposed to the water O_o). And it's one of the few that came a little close to "acceptable".

 

Let your imagination and creativity flow!

I hope you like it.

Anthurium Lily, one of my favourite exotic blooms.

 

Anthurium (pronounced /ænˈθjʊəriəm/)[1] (Schott, 1829), is a large genus of about 600- 800 (possibly 1,000) species, belonging to the arum family (Araceae). Anthurium can also be called "Flamingo Flower" or "Boy Flower", both referring to the structure of the spathe and spadix.

 

TROPICOS lists 1901 types, although some of these are duplicates. It is one of the largest and probably the most complex genus of this family; certainly it is one of the most variable. Many species are undoubtedly not yet described and new ones are being found every year. The species has neotropical distribution; mostly in wet tropical mountain forest of Central America and South America, but some in semi-arid environments. Most species occur in Panama, Colombia, Brazil, the Guiana Shield and Ecuador.

Esplanade des Invalides: a new anti-CPE demonstration on the 23 turned even more violent than the 18. A couple of photographers have been beaten up by provovateurs, a few cameras stolen, and large riots erupted in different places of this huge esplanade. At least 3 cars have been burnt as well as part of a building.

 

Here, a fireman is trying to extinguish the fire still burning under the car. He won't suceed, and shortly after, the firemen will have to flip the car on its side to expose the reservoir.

This evening while walking to dinner at an Uzbekistan restaurant, the sun started to go down behind the icy overcast skies, casting more of that eerie blue light across the city of Kiev. There were a few flecks of snow beginning to fall, but not enough to obscure Saint Andrews Church here as we passed.

 

This classically baroque church was originally in the mid 18th century and is still occasionally used by the creatively anachronistic Ukrainian Autocephalous Orthodox church for services. It's built on a very steep hill, near a steeper and scenic curved road, which was too icy for me to get down with the tripod. It's one of the few times I decided discretion was the better part of photographic valor.

About this photo: It was a gorgeous sunny week last week with about +11C/52F and you could feel the warmth of the sun. On days like that I can't help but wanting to go out and enjoy the weather and take some photos. I ended up going to Pitt Lake in Pitt Meadows which is a 20-25 minute drive from my place.

 

Once you drive through this area you feel like you are in the middle of nowhere as there is hardly anybody around and hardly any cars on this road (especially on a week day in the mornings) and that only about 15 minutes away from a fair sized town. I stopped alongside the road a little ways before arriving at Pitt Lake to capture this photo of the road leading to the beautiful mountain views with some fresh powder snow on top. I just love these views!

Some information on the Pitt Lake area: Pitt Lake is located in Grant Narrows Regional Park in Pitt Meadows which is about 45 minutes east of downtown Vancouver. Pitt Lake is the second-largest lake in the Lower Mainland of British Columbia, being about 53.5 square km (20.5 square mi) in area. It is about 25km (15.6mi) long and about 4.5km (2.8mi) wide at its widest, and is also one of the world's largest tidal lakes, its confluence with the Fraser being only a few miles upstream from that river's estuary into the Strait of Georgia. Its southern tip, where the Pitt River resumes, is 40km (25mi) east of downtown Vancouver.

 

The upper Pitt River valley is a typical U-shaped glacial valley in the Coast Mountains of British Columbia. The over-deepening of the lower end of the valley over the span of the Wisconsin glaciation created a trough over 140m (462ft) below current sea level. After initial glacial retreat at around 13,000 years ago a saltwater fjord occupied this basin when relative sea levels were still ca 120m (396ft) to 140m (462ft) above current levels in the region. Unlike neighbouring Indian Arm and Howe Sound farther west this fjord basin became cut off by sedimentation of the lower Fraser River by ca 10,500 years ago and is now considered a tidal fjord lake.

 

The community of Pitt Meadows occupies the marshy lowland at the southern end of the lake, some of which has become drained and is known as the Pitt Polder. Just southwest of the lake is the community of Port Coquitlam, which is across the Pitt River from Pitt Meadows. At the north end of the lake is a locality named Alvin, which is a transport and shipping point for logging companies and their employees. The Upper Pitt, meaning the valley upstream from the lake, is considered BC's best fly-fishing rivers and one of its best steelhead streams.

 

The lake is popular with boaters and canoeists, but is prone to heavy winds and rains as well as big waves (due to its great depth). The mountain range on its east flank comprises Golden Ears Provincial Park, its basin to the north is in southern Garibaldi Provincial Park, while the mountain range on its west, northeast of Vancouver's Coquitlam Lake watershed reservoir, is Pinecone Burke Provincial Park. The waterfront and foreshore of the lake and river are public-access and include extensive migratory wildfowl habitat. There is a destination golfing resort in the Pitt Polder area called Swan-e-set.

 

The area along the east side of the lake is somewhat famous for being the reputed location of Slumach's lost gold mine, the location of many failed and sometimes disastrous searches for the alleged murderer's lost gold mine. (Info from Wikipedia).

From my back at the farm "Songkran" series taken early in the year with my then trusty D40... every sunset was of Gold and Orange as intense as seen.. A unique and enticing place.. where people are people.. the drawback rudimentary dwellings, boot camp/ jungle comfort no aircon (a real killer... lol.) in the real boonies :-).

 

The Northeast region of Thailand is known as Isaan and is home to the second largest people group in the country. In Thai, Isaan refers to the people, the dialect and the land area of the Northeast. One can be Isaan, speak Isaan and be from Isaan. The Isaan region includes 170,218 square kilometers, about one third of the country’s total area. In 1997 the population of Isaan was 21,086,501 or 35% of Thailand’s total population.

 

Isaan are a hard working, good-natured people of Laotian descent. They are in the process of acculturation to the predominate Central Thai culture, but for the most part they still form a distinct cultural group as evidenced by the use of their own language, their eating habits and their distinct social class.

'Clouds' On Black

 

Ho soffiato sulle nuvole

di TITTY(bio.)

 

Ho soffiato sulle nuvole addensate sui miei ricordi,

ho fermato lacrime sospese nel vuoto,

distillate nel cuore,

perse tra sibili di vento,

ho cercato fate evanescenti disperse tra i fiori di lavanda e il cielo piangente di un agosto dimenticato,

ho incatenato sogni dipingendoli con pennelli colorati,

ho navigato su un mare di vortici,

vela spinta da un tempo d'oblio

e sono rimasta appesa a rimpianti,

cent'anni in una mano e nell'altra scintille di stelle.

 

I have blown on the clouds

of TITTY (bio.)

 

I have blown on the clouds thickened on my memories,

I have stopped tears it suspended in the void,

you distill in the heart,

lost among hisses of wind,

I have looked for lost evanescent fairies between the flowers of lavender and the crying sky of one forgotten August,

I have chained dreams painting them with colored brushes,

I have sailed on a sea of vortexes,

it veils pushed from once of forgetfulness

and I have been suspended to regrets,

one hundred years in a hand and in the other sparks of stars.

 

He soplado sobre las nubes

de TITTY(bio.)

 

He soplado sobre las nubes condensadas de mis recuerdos,

he parado lágrimas suspendidas en el vacío,

destiladas en el corazón,

perdidas entre silbidos de viento,

he buscado hadas borrosas náufragas entre las flores de lavanda y el cielo llorante de un agosto olvidado,

he encadenado sueños pintándolos con pinceles colorados,

he navegado sobre un mar de remolinos,

vela empujada de un tiempo de olvido

y he quedado colgada a añoranzas,

ciento años en una mano y en las otras chispas de estrellas.

This is the last photo I have edited and ready to go ... I did several of them early last week knowing that this week would be crazy and now I've run out! I've really missed working on my photos and also viewing yours these last several days! I think I'm addicted to you guys and your streams!! But things have been so busy for me!

 

As you know, I finished launching my new site yesterday but I've also been preparing for a big choral concert which happens this Thursday evening and also regular rehearsals for a musical I'm in which happens in January.

 

Now that my site is done I really have to buckle down and write that first Microsoft article and then also get to work for my poor clients, whom I've quite neglected as of late. All is to say, not enough time for Flickr! :(

 

I look forward to visiting you all soon ... hopefully I'll find some time over the weekend!

One of my dearest memories from my time at the film school in Cuba (between September 2002 and July 2004) has to do with this, exactly...

 

The school, in the middle of the countryside, surrounded by nothing but nature, sported an olympic size swimming-pool, that you could access 24/7. Million stories around there, both day and night... both fun and sad... even some of them sexy in a way...

 

But my absolute favorite was every month, when the full moon was at its brightest, I would get my towel, swimming trunks and flip flops, and get down from my room to the pool area. Sometimes with some friends, other times by myself... And you might have started with the swim wear on... but not a few minutes would go that everything would go away... and I would feel that MAGIC (in capitals) of being free in the water, under that orange /silver light... feeling one with nature, with the night, with life itself...

 

Shall I remind you that I am an island person (born in one, lived in different ones ever since), and that my horoscope is Cancer? Therefore... water + moon = Paradise...

 

I hadn't been able to relive that feeling in a very long time....

 

Until my recent trip to Spain.

 

House in the countryside... no sound but the sheep and the crickets... and a big full moon shinning from above in the night... I felt ALIVE... again.

When: 20100515, on a photo trip top Skåne

How and why: Love water under long exposure, but this river wasn't very fast and didn't ogger any great falls that I could find, so to capture an image like this it was a matter of finding a nice little rapid that wasn't disturbed with too many twigs and other things, and try to isolate the scene.

Editing: Cropping, added contrast, minor adjustments.

The azure damselfly (Coenagrion puella) is a species of damselfly found in most of Europe. It is notable for its distinctive black and blue colouring. They are commonly found around ponds and lakesides during the summer.

 

Mating in damselflies, as in dragonflies, is a complex, precisely choreographed process involving both indirect insemination and delayed fertilisation. First, the male has to attract a female to his territory, continually driving off rival males. When he is ready to mate, he transfers a packet of sperm from his primary genital opening on segment 9, near the end of his abdomen, to his secondary genitalia on segments 2–3, near the base of his abdomen. The male then grasps the female by the head with the claspers at the end of his abdomen; the structure of the claspers varies between species, and may help to prevent interspecific mating. The pair fly in tandem with the male in front, typically perching on a twig or plant stem. The female then curls her abdomen downwards and forwards under her body to pick up the sperm from the male's secondary genitalia, while the male uses his "tail" claspers to grip the female behind the head: this distinctive posture is called the "heart" or "wheel"; the pair may also be described as being "in cop".

CAT:

El Palau del Marqués de Dosaigües és un dels edificis civils d'estil barroc i rococó més significatius de la ciutat de València i seu del Museu de Ceràmica.

La construcció de l'antic edifici del palau es deu a la família Rabassa de Perellós, qui des del 1496 ostentava la baronia de Dosaigües. Segons el plànol de València del Pare Tosca del 1704, es tractava d'una construcció gòtica amb tres cossos disposats al voltant d'un pati amb una torre emmerletada en el cantó nord-est. La façana es coronava amb una galeria correguda.

 

ESP:

El palacio de los Marqueses de Dos Aguas sito en la calle Rinconada Federico García Sanchiz de la ciudad de València, es producto de una radical reforma llevada a cabo sobre la antigua casa solariega de los Rabassa de Perellós, titulares del marquesado de Dos Aguas, en la década de 1740 en un acusado estilo rococó.

De planta cuadrangular irregular, organizado en torno a un patio y con torres en las esquinas, sus fachadas se alzan con planta baja y dos alturas, y en un lateral se abre la puerta principal, realizada en alabastro por Ignacio Vergara sobre diseño de Hipólito Rovira. Presidida por la imagen de la Virgen, desde ella descienden dos caudales de agua en alusión al título de los marqueses, con dos atlantes a los lados que simbolizan dos ríos, todo con aspecto de desbordante voluptuosidad.

En esa época toda la fachada estaba decorada con frescos de Rovira, pero en 1867 el palacio sufrió una nueva remodelación, y en ella desaparecieron las pinturas, que estaban en mal estado por la humedad, siendo sustituidas por estucos en tonos grises y rosas imitando mármoles, y además se realizaron también los balcones de sabor francés, con barandillas ondulantes.

En su interior aún podemos observar hoy las carrozas del siglo XVIII y los salones decimonónicos con su decoración original, recientemente restaurada, mientras que la segunda planta acoge el Museo Nacional de Cerámica González Martí, con una importante colección de piezas desde la Antigüedad a los más modernos diseños.

El grito altisonante del Rascón Europeo descubre a menudo a esta ave escondidiza cuando se mueve entre las cañas y carrizos [Planta gramínea, indígena de España, con la raíz larga, rastrera y dulce, tallo de dos metros, hojas planas, lineares y lanceoladas, y flores en panojas anchas y copudas. Se cría cerca del agua.] . La llamada que se oye con más frecuencia empieza con un gruñido y acaba con un berrido penetrante como el de un cerdo. Las otras notas son una variedad de gruñidos, gemidos, silbidos, rechinamientos y una aguda llamada «quic, quic, quic». Es fácil escuchar sus gritos al atardecer o en noche cerrada.

 

En los carrizales, charcas y aguazales en que cría, el rascón pasa como una flecha de una mata a otra, entre la espesa vegetación, con su largo y rojo pico apuntando al suelo. Es suficientemente pequeño y delgado para moverse sin delatarse por la vegetación, andando a largos pasos. Mientras anda a veces yergue su cola, mostrando las plumas blancas de debajo. Su vuelo dura unos pocos segundos, aleteando blandamente.

 

El cortejo nupcial incluye la alimentación de la hembra por el macho, habiéndose visto a aquélla levantarse del nido con huevos para dar vueltas alrededor de éste, frotando su pico con el del macho y ronroneando blandamente.

   

Identificación: Largo pico rojo; cara, garganta y pecho gris pizarra oscura; flancos barrados, partes superiores pardo oscuro con rayas negras; blanco bajo la cola; voz característica; hembra más apagada que el macho.

 

Nidificación: Ambos sexos construyen nido de juncos cerca de lago, río o en terreno pantanoso; nido construido sobre el nivel del agua tapado por arriba; pone, de abril a julio, de 6 a 11 huevos ocráceos con manchas grises o castañas; incubación, por ambos sexos, unos 20 días; los pollos, cebados por ambos padres, dejan el nido tras nacer, volando a las 7 semanas; dos crías.

 

Alimentación: Insectos, arañas, camarones, cangrejos, lombrices; raíces, semillas y bayas.

 

Hábitat: Marismas y zonas palustres.

I was in Driggs, Idaho and we were on our way to have dinner. I saw this squall develop and pulled off the road to capture the event. In my large original, there are several sun rays in the left portion of the sky but most do not show up in this smaller image.

 

James Neeley and I were meeting Rodney Lough www.rodneyloughjr.com/ a professional photographer who was shooting in the area. Rodney shoots with an 8 x 10 film camera and with that equipment is not able to capture such a fleeting event as this little squall. There are advantages to shooting with a DSLR camera ;>)

 

When I saw this squall develop with the clouds and sun rays, I tried to design my shot so that it was more than just a record of the event. I walked a bit to my left so I could frame the squall and light show and also add some secondary compositional elements, the crossed fence and the fence disappearing into the image, that would make the image more interesting. You can see how the fence line on the right leads the viewers attention right to the spot-lighted squall. The cross fence fills an otherwise empty space in the foreground. As one becomes a better and more experienced photographer, this comes naturally, always looking for the best composition.

This is another one of my Vegas shots. I was walking along the strip and stopped to see the fountains at the Bellagio across the street. This cutie caught my attention when he kept running around trying to beat his friends to the dropped food. It was obvious that he often won this race. Anyway, he had crumbs all over him and I couldn't resist taking his photo. If you look into his eye, you can see the reflection of the fountains, sky, and trees in. it. Oh...the reason for the title...it was a French restuarant.

 

I'll be back later to see all of your photos. I'm getting my house ready to put on the market and it's very time consuming! Enjoy your day.

I'm fascinated by the idea of death personified. A little morbid it's true but a concept that interests me nonetheless. It was in Philip Pullman's, Dark Materials when the idea was first introduced to me, death walking side by side with you through life.

 

"Doesn't it scare you, having your death close by all the time?" said Lyra

"Why ever would it? If he's there, you can keep an eye on him. I'd be a lot more nervous not knowing where he was."

"And everyone has their own death?" said Will, marvelling.

"Why yes, the moment you're born, your death comes into the world with you, and it's your death that takes you out."

- The Amber Spyglass, Philip Pullman

 

This is my little take on such an idea. The model is the lovely Sevgi. We took this at a meetup in London last year. I've put together a blog post about it here :)

Las obras de la Fuente de la Cibeles comenzaron en 1780, encargándose de su realización los escultores Francisco Gutiérrez y Roberto Michel, así como el adornista Miguel Ximénez.

 

Esculpida en mármol de Montesclaros, consiste en un gran pilono circular sobre el que se sitúan unas rocas que hacen de soporte al carro de la diosa, el cual está tirado por dos leones. Sentada en el carro aparece la diosa Cibeles vestida con un fino manto. En la mano derecha sostiene un cetro, símbolo del poder universal, mientras que con la izquierda muestra las llaves de la ciudad.

 

La mayoría de la obra fue realizada por Francisco Gutiérrez, mientras que Roberto Michel se encargó de realizar los leones y parte del carro, y Miguel Ximénez realizó la ornamentación general.

 

Por último, a instancias de Juan de Villanueva, Alfonso Giraldo Vergaz completó su ornamentación con las figuras de un dragón y un oso, de cuya cabeza salían dos surtidores de agua potable, y que fueron retirados a mediados del siglo XIX.

 

Las obras finalizaron en 1792, situándose en un principio a la entrada del Paseo de Recoletos, mirando hacia Neptuno. Allí estuvo Cibeles hasta que en 1895, con motivo de la ordenación de la glorieta de Emilio Castelar, fue trasladada a su emplazamiento actual.

 

Lamentablemente, a lo largo de su historia, este símbolo de la ciudad de Madrid ha sido objeto de numerosos actos vandálicos que la han ocasionado importantes desperfectos; en 1841 fue robado el cañón de bronce que asomaba por la boca del oso, costando su reparación 1.800 reales. En 1931 fue arrancada su mano izquierda, y posteriormente, durante la Guerra Civil, hubo de protegerla mediante una compleja obra de ingeniería puesto que durante un bombardeo quedó muy dañada en su brazo derecho, nariz, así como en el morro de uno de los leones.

 

Suconversión en 'musa futbolera' le está ocasionando graves desperfectos, ya que por este motivo, varias veces ha sido mutilada, e incluso teñida de pintura fosforescente.

 

Este monumento simboliza la presencia de madrileños en otras ciudades hermanas a Madrid. Existe una réplica exacta en Mexico DF.

silencio absoluto - Ayer Me Vi (Con Kutxi Romero De Marea Y El Drogas de barricada)

 

català

 

Els Pirineus (o el Pirineu) són un conjunt de serres (és a dir, una serralada) situades al nord de la Península Ibèrica. S'estén des del Mar Mediterrani (cap de Creus) a l'est, fins al mar Cantàbric (golf de Biscaia) a l'oest; al sud hi té la depressió de l'Ebre, i al nord la de la Garona. Ocupa la zona nord de Catalunya, l'Aragó, Navarra i el País Basc i la zona sud del Bearn i la Gascunya, així com la totalitat d'Andorra. La frontera entre França i Espanya també ressegueix aproximadament els Pirineus; el País Basc i Catalunya, als extrems oest i est respectivament, es troben a cavall de la serralada.

Tenen una llargada d'uns 425 km i una amplada que generalment no supera els 100 km.

Els Pirineus reben els següents noms en les llengües dels territoris que ocupen: en català Pirineus; en francès Pyrénées; en espanyol Pirineos; en occità Pirenèus; en aragonès Perinés; en basc Pirinioak.

Segons la mitologia grega, els Pirineus els creà Heracles, en amuntegar pedres per enterrar la princesa Pirena. Segons la geologia, es van formar a l'Era Terciària, amb el plegament alpí.

 

Alguns dels cims més importants dels Pirineus són, entre d'altres:

 

L'Aneto (3.403,5 m), a la Ribagorça, el més alt de la serralada.

El pic de Pocets (3.375 m), a la Ribagorça.

El Mont Perdut (3.348,2 m), a l'Aragó.

El Vinhamala (3.298 m), a la Gascunya.

La Pica d'Estats (3.143,1 m), a cavall entre el Pallars Sobirà i el País de Foix, és la muntanya més alta de Catalunya.

El Comapedrosa (2.942 m), la màxima altitud d'Andorra.

El Carlit (2.921 m), a l'Alta Cerdanya.

El Collarada (2.886 m), a l'Aragó.

El Montardo (2.833,8 m), a la Vall d'Aran.

El Canigó (2.784 m), al Conflent.

Els dos cims dels Encantats (2.734,3 i 2.748,1 m), al Pallars Sobirà.

 

Els clima dels Pirineus és de muntanya, cosa que en fa una illa climàtica caracteritzada per unes precipitacions més elevades i unes temperatures més baixes que els territoris del voltant. Alhora fa de frontera climàtica entre el clima oceànic predominant al seu nord-oest i el clima mediterrani al sud-est (amb matisos continentals al sud).

S'hi dóna una disminució de les precipitacions d'oest a est i de nord a sud, essent les valls pre-pirinenques de l'oest de Catalunya les zones més seques de la serralada (compareu, per exemple, els 636 mm/any d'Adrall amb els més de 1500 als Pirineus Atlàntics). Just a l'extrem est la pluviositat torna augmentar per efecte de la proximitat amb el Mediterrani, que si bé de manera poc freqüent, a vegades genera llevantades.

 

Aquesta serralada és el bressol d'importants rius: Adur, Garona, Nivelle, Tec, Tet, Aglí i Camini al vessant francès; Bidasoa, Aragó, Gállego, Cinca, Ésera, Segre, Ter, Llobregat, Muga i Fluvià al vessant sud

Los Pirineos, o el Pirineo como prefieren denominar sus habitantes al referirse a una parte o región de éstos (catalán: Pirineus; francés: Pyrénées; gascón: Pirenèus; aragonés: Perinés; euskera: Pirinioak o Auñamendiak), son una cordillera montañosa situada al norte de la Península Ibérica, entre España, Andorra y Francia. Se extiende a lo largo de 415 km desde el mar Mediterráneo (cabo de Creus, golfo de Rosas) al este, hasta el mar Cantábrico (cabo Higuer, golfo de Vizcaya) al oeste. En su parte central tiene una anchura de unos 150 km. En lenguaje corriente la palabra Pirineo se aplica al conjunto de altas sierras fronterizas hispano-francesas. Los Pirineos Centrales o Pirineo central es el área geográfica de la cordillera de los Pirineos que se extiende aproximadamente, según las diferentes obras, entre las cumbres de Somport, en la parte occidental, y el macizo de la Maladeta, en la oriental.

En la ladera norte, en Francia, transcurre por la regiones de Aquitania (Pirineos Atlánticos), Mediodía-Pirineos (Altos Pirineos, Alto Garona y Ariège) y Rosellón (Pirineos Orientales). En la ladera sur, en España, transcurren por Navarra, Aragón (Huesca) y Cataluña (Lérida y Gerona). El pequeño país de Andorra está situado en los Pirineos, entre España y Francia.

Estas montañas albergan picos de más de 3.000 metros de altura como el Aneto (3.404 m), el Posets (3.375 m), el Monte Perdido (3.355 m) y el Vignemale (3.298 m), pequeños glaciares, lagos y circos de origen glaciar, y un gran número de valles y cañones.

From The CSIRO website

 

The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), at the Paul Wild Observatory, is an array of six 22-m antennas used for radio astronomy. It is located about 25 km west of the town of Narrabri in rural NSW (about 500 km north-west of Sydney). It is operated by CSIRO's Astronomy and Space Science division...

 

The "Compact Array'' is the premier instrument of its kind in the southern hemisphere. It operates 365-days per year, 24-hours per day. Its business is pure science. It is not used for any military activities.

 

This antennas work together using a technique called "interferometry'' which allows the antennas to mimic a much larger antenna. This gives the telescope the ability to see very fine detail. Effectively "radio interferometry'' works by replacing the lens of a conventional imaging system with sophisticated electronics, supercomputer-like hardware and complex software. Using this technique, a image of a small section of the sky can be formed in a 12-hour period. Whereas the Array uses six antennas spread over 6km, the same interferometry principles can be applied to antennas spread over a continent. For example, several times a year, the Array is used together with other radio telescopes spread across Australia (such as the Parkes antenna) to make images with extremely fine detail.

ENGLISH

Espresso or caffè espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing very hot, but not boiling water under high pressure through coffee that has been ground to a consistency between extremely fine and powder.

 

Espresso was developed in Milan, Italy in the early 20th century, but up until the mid-1940s it was a beverage produced solely with steam pressure. The invention of the spring piston lever machine and its subsequent commercial success changed espresso into the beverage we know today. Espresso is now produced with between 8.2 and 18 atmospheres or bars (0.82 to 1.8 megapascals; 120 to 265 PSI) of pressure.

 

The defining characteristics of espresso include a thicker consistency than drip coffee, a higher amount of dissolved solids than drip coffee per relative volume, and a serving size that is usually measured in shots, which are between 25 and 30 ml (30ml=1 fluid ounce) in size. Espresso is chemically complex and volatile, with many of its chemical components quickly degrading from oxidation or loss of temperature. Properly brewed espresso has three major parts: the heart, body, and the most distinguishing factor, the presence of crema, a reddish-brown foam that floats on the surface of the espresso. It is composed of vegetable oils, proteins and sugars. Crema has elements of both emulsion and foam colloid.

 

As a result of the high-pressure brewing process, all of the flavors and chemicals in a typical cup of coffee are concentrated. Because of its intense and high concentration of ingredients (including caffeine), espresso lends itself to mixing into other coffee based drinks, such as lattes, cappuccini, macchiato and mochas, without being diluted in the resulting drink.

Fair trade is an organized social movement and market-based approach to alleviating global poverty and promoting sustainability. The movement advocates the payment of a fair price as well as social and environmental standards in areas related to the production of a wide variety of goods. It focuses in particular on exports from developing countries to developed countries, most notably handicrafts, coffee, cocoa, sugar, tea, bananas, honey, cotton, wine, fresh fruit, and so on.

 

Fair trade's strategic intent is to deliberately work with marginalised producers and workers in order to help them move from a position of vulnerability to security and economic self-sufficiency. It also aims at empowering them to become stakeholders in their own organizations and actively play a wider role in the global arena to achieve greater equity in international trade.

CASTELLANO

El café expreso (también café espresso o café exprés) es un tipo de preparación del café. Debe su término a la obtención de esta bebida a través de una cafetera expreso. Se caracteriza por su rápida preparación y por su sabor más concentrado. A juicio de expertos representa la mejor forma de preparar un café.

 

Para la obtención de un café expreso, se hace pasar agua a alta presión (entre 5 y 10 Bar, dependiendo de la máquina) a través del café. Para que el agua atraviese el café extrayendo todo su sabor y aroma, es necesario que el molido se haga muy fino.

Consumo responsable es un concepto defendido por organizaciones ecológicas, sociales y políticas que consideran que los seres humanos harían bien en cambiar sus hábitos de consumo ajustándolos a sus necesidades reales y optando en el mercado por opciones que favorezcan la conservación del medio ambiente y la igualdad social. Entre las citadas organizaciones se encuentran Ecologistas en acción, algunos partidos verdes y en especial aquéllas organizaciónes e individuos que propugnan una Ecología social.

 

Se esgrime que el acto de consumir no sólamente es la satisfacción de una necesidad, sino que implica colaborar en los procesos económicos, medioambientales y sociales que posibilitan el bien o producto consumido. Por ello se postula que deberían tenerse en cuenta en el momento de elegir entre las opciones disponibles en el mercado las que menos repercusiones negativas tengan.

I know it's not polite to toot your own horn, but holy hell do I ever love the way today's shots turned out! I was totally inspired by this shot, and knew I wanted to do my own version with blues instead of pinks. Of course, in post processing I wound up falling in love with this shot, which is decidedly more muted. Whatever. Don't you just love those days where shoots go even better than expected and you totally feel like you rocked it out? This is one of those days for me. So let me enjoy it!! Ha!

 

That said, there were a bunch of outtakes that I really liked too, so I'm posting them in the comments. Let me know what you think of them. And as a side note, when I started my self portrait 365 project, I wasn't sure I could handle it. I mean, I'm self conscious of the way I look and usually hate pictures of me. So how was I going to do a whole year of it, right? But what I've discovered in the course of doing these daily self portraits, is that I love the way I can totally transform my look for different shots. Wigs, makeup, angles, processing...it's become this total obsession of mine. I love making myself look like somebody else, while still retaining the bits of me that I love. This shot is such a good example of that.

 

Ok, I'll stop rambling about how much I love these shots. Ha. If you read this far, you must really like me a lot! ;)

50 Random Facts About Me

#27: The reason I had to have my gallbladder removed is because I had so LITTLE fat in my diet, all the bile sat there and did not do its job breaking down fat and it turned into stones. I have always been on the average to a little chubby side, and have went up and down as I think all women have...but I was always convinced I was totally fat.

 

But I was so obsessed with looking 'perfect' and people in my own family would always give me a hard time to lose a few pounds so I made up my own diet which was basically no more then 500 calories a day and as little to no fat as possible. I ate rice and steamed veggies and not much else. Yes I am aware how unhealthy it was so I really don't want lectures on it. It has truly fucked up my body ever since. I lost too much weight very quickly and I was bony and gross for about a year and now besides losing my gallbladder my weight fluctuates very easily and my whole system is out of whack and may very well be forever.

 

It was drilled into my head by the media and by FAMILY that if I was not stick-thin I was not beautiful and would never get a husband or whatever and I believed it. I know it is not true but there is a part of me that still feels like I will never be thin enough or pretty enough or perfect enough.

 

(NOTE: these Random Facts are not to get reaction, but it was my choice on finding an interesting way to end out my Year 1 and maybe share some things about me that make me who I am. If you don't like it, don't read it. But I am not looking for sympathy or compliments or anything else. I chose on purpose to have some funny ones, some weird ones, etc...and I had reasons for it.)

There's another photo on the comment box...

 

From a Maternity Photo Session... It was a Zen moment. While I was photographing Eva, I was introducing her to Ginkgo Biloba, and told her that this tree is a symbol of longevity and is seen as one of the wonders of this world (source: see Ginkgo Pages) I first found it at Weimar (Ginkgo biloba is the icon of this beautiful German city). Weimar is, probably, the place in the world where this tree is most worshipped. You can have a look at its official site.

 

Ginkgo biloba is associated with love and perseverance. Goethe dedicated the poem "Ginkgo biloba" to his lover Marianne von Willemer and this poem has immortalized this tree.

 

Eva was feeling very happy and the baby was born the day after.I think that Ginkgo has added a new leaf...

I took the title from this 1937 Pullman poster.

 

This 1912 Pullman private car was custom-built in Chicago for Clara Baldwin Stocker, the eldest daughter of Elias “Lucky” Baldwin (link). It has been completely restored to its 1912 condition, and is on display at The Nethercutt Collection (link) in Sylmar, CA. Two great things about The Nethercutt Collection: 1. It has hundreds of beautifully restored antique and classic cars, musical instruments, this Pullman car, and a 1937 Canadian Royal locomotive. 2. Entrance is 100% free.

 

If you're in the Los Angeles/San Fernando Valley area, it's definitely worth a visit.
