It was a very cold day and to the left there was a building with a heavily smoking chimney, so you see the smoke rising up against the building and hitting the roof, from where you can see it going up in a straight line . . . !
Source of inspiration
The name “Het Strijkijzer” did not appear out of the blue.
Architect Paul Bontenbal’s design was inspired by the Flatiron Building in New York. With Het Strijkijzer he hopes to recapture the intimacy of Rijswijkseplein of the past……
Highest residential tower block
On this incredibly small plot - just 30 by 35 metres - a 130 metre-high residential tower block, the highest in The Hague, Het Strijkijzer stands.
Het Strijkijzer has 351 housing units: three hundred studios for young people and 51 luxury rental apartments. The building has a number of sun lounges, two separate entrances and a total of five lifts. But there is more. It also has a trendy Grand Café, a launderette and workspaces. And a special panorama terrace on the 41st floor, accessed by an impressive glass lift.

Il Monte Rosa visto dal Mottarone.
La montagna dei due laghi", così è chiamato il Mottarone,
per la sua particolare posizione da cui si può godere di un panorama davvero suggestivo, che abbraccia sia il Lago Maggiore che il Lago d'Orta.
Al tempo dei pionieri, il monte era accessibile da
Stresa, soltanto a piedi, utilizzando le vecchie mulattiere degli alpigiani.
Nel 1911 arrivò poi la ferrovia, la prima construita in Italia con cremagliera e trazione elettrica costruita in Italia. Nel 1964 la ferrovia fu chiusa, tuttavia , il Mottarone non è mai stato così facilmente raggiungibile come oggi: è possibile infatti arrivare alla cima sia in automobile che utilizzando la funivia in patenza dal lido di Stresa, dalla quale, lungo il
tragitto, si gode di una splendida e suggestiva vista.
Oltre ai due laghi già citati è possibile ammirare diverse meraviglie naturali: dalla Pianura Padana, con la lontana
cortina degli Appennini, alle Alpi del Monviso, dal Monte Rosa alla serie dei Mischabel, tutti "quattromila". Anche in questo caso, quello che segue è solo uno dei diversi percorsi che è possibile intraprendere. Da Stresa ci si può servire della funivia per arrivare, in pochi minuti, sino alla vetta (1491 m.) , il tragitto dura circa 30 minuti;
L'alternativa è quella di fermarsi alla stazione intermedia dell'Alpino , dove è possibile
ammirare il giardino botanico "Alpinia", all'interno del quale, in un'area di 12.000
metri quadrati, si trovano piante alpine e attrazioni botaniche di rara bellezza. Dall'Alpino si giunge alla vetta del Mottarone in un paio d'ore di cammino, seguendo
la strada asfaltata o seguendo i numerosi sentieri segnalati, in questo caso si seguono
percorsi sterrati. E' anche possibile giungere alla meta partendo da Stresa e percorrendo a piedi l'intero percorso; sono circa 5 ore di cammino, per un tragitto di 14 Km con un dislvello di 1300 m.

taken in Phi Phi Island - Krabi - Thailand - Jun '08
My Most interesting photos for a guy called Isaias
The Phi Phi Islands (Thai: หมู่เกาะพีพี) are located in Thailand, between the large island of Phuket and the western Andaman Sea coast of the mainland. Phi Phi Don, the larger and principal of the two Phi Phi islands, is located at [show location on an interactive map] 7°44′00″N, 98°46′00″E. Both Phi Phi Don, and Phi Phi Leh, the smaller, are administratively part of Krabi province, most of which is on the mainland, and is located at [show location on an interactive map] 8°02′30″N, 98°48′39″E.
Ko Phi Phi Don ("ko" (Thai: เกาะ) meaning "island" in the Thai language) is the largest island of the group, and is the only island with permanent inhabitants, although the beaches of the second largest island, Ko Phi Phi Lee (or "Ko Phi Phi Leh"), are visited by many people as well. There are no accommodation facilities on this island, but it is just a short boat ride from Ko Phi Phi Don. The rest of the islands in the group, including Bida Nok, Bida Noi, and Bamboo Island, are not much more than large limestone rocks jutting out of the sea.
Phi Phi Don was initially populated by Muslim fishermen during the late 1940s, and later became a coconut plantation. The Thai population of Phi Phi Don remains more than 80% Muslim.But the actual population if counting laborers, especially from the north-east, from the mainland is much more Buddhist these days.
Ko Phi Phi Leh was the backdrop for the 2000 movie The Beach. Phi Phi Leh also houses the 'Viking Cave', from which there is a thriving bird's nest soup industry. There was criticism during filming of 'The Beach' that the permission granted to the film company to physically alter the environment inside Phi Phi Islands National Park was illegal. [1] The controversy cooled down however, when it was discovered that the producers had done such a decent job of restoring the place that it finally looked better than it had done before.
Following the release of The Beach, tourism on Phi Phi Don increased dramatically, and with it the population of the island. Many buildings were constructed without planning permission.[citation needed]
Ko Phi Phi was devastated by the Indian Ocean tsunami of December 2004, when nearly all of the island's infrastructure was wiped out. Redevelopment has, however, been swift, and services like electricity, water, Internet access and ATMs are up and running again, but waste handling has been slower to come back online.

"Hark, I hear a robin calling!
List, the wind is from the south!
And the orchard-bloom is falling
Sweet as kisses on the mouth.
In the dreamy vale of beeche
Fair and faint is woven mist,
And the river's orient reaches
Are the palest amethyst.
Every limpid brook is singing
Of the lure of April days;
Every piney glen is ringing
With the maddest roundelays.
Come and let us seek together
Springtime lore of daffodils,
Giving to the golden weather
Greeting on the sun-warm hills."

Knee high socks are now my favorite! They keep my legs nice and warm in the cold weather. (and don't you think they look awesome with converse?!?) ;)
Today is the first day of classes for the semester! A new beginning for me! I'm excited about new classes and teachers, but really nervous cause i'm taking some pretty hard classes (at least that's what i've been told...). I'm going to try really hard not to procrastinate, and i say that every semester, but last semester I actually did pretty good on not procrastination (except for on the papers), so this semester i'm going to try and do even better! =)
And on Mondays I don't have class until 2! so most of the time i should be able to get a bench monday up (if i remember!) :)
anyways, HBM!!! :D
p.s. Finally made it to explore! thanks so much everyone :D

La casa Botines, o casa Fernández y Andrés es un edificio de estilo modernista, situado en la ciudad de León, capital de la provincia homónima, España. Originalmente almacén comercial y residencia particular, fue construido y diseñado por el arquitecto español Antoni Gaudí entre 1891 y 1894, siendo esta una de sus tres obras fuera de Cataluña, junto al palacio episcopal de Astorga, también en León y al Capricho de Gaudí de Comillas, en Cantabria.
Ubicado junto al palacio de los Guzmanes, sede de la Diputación de León, de estilo renacentista, fue restaurado en 1951, declarado Monumento Histórico en 1969, es en la actualidad la sede de Caja España, entidad que lo rehabilitó en 1996, actividad que le valió el premio Europa Nostra.
El término casa Botines deriva del apellido del fundador de la sociedad, Joan Homs i Botinàs, empresario y comerciante español asentado en la capital leonesa, que dirigían Mariano Andrés Luna y Simón Fernández Fernández, responsables del encargo de la casa a Antoni Gaudí.

There was a very heavy fog when I took this shot and I had to focus manually to get this one.
If you want to, take a look at downtownlalife magazine , I'm being featured right now
.
My New Year's resolutions:
1. Try to improve my photography.
2. Shoot more portraits - portraiture is my first love and I'm a big admirer of portraiture/model photographers like Richard Avedon and Irving Penn.
3. Shoot with film - I'm looking for a good med format film camera, maybe even a large format film.
4. Looking for a job with less responsibilities, less working hours and less stress and more time to shoot photos and spend quality time with my loved ones. That's what really matters.

"Distant view of Table Mountain" CAPE TOWN, SOUTH AFRICA
Thoughts about the mountains
I flew over mountains and reached the sky,
The sun came closer to me,
My eyes were blinded, forever for good,
only mountains I memorize-
At the top of the world, as the king of the hills,
I admired my kingdom of beauty,
The view was so endless, I still see it sometimes
Restored in my dreams by memories.
The things I still feel are the sounds that I hear,
whenever I go back to the hills.
The smells that I recognize, haven’t altered a bit,
wind so balmy ruffles my hair.
I feel contented and couldn’t wish no more,
if only a bigger imagination to add more colors into my dreams …

Die Kugelbake ist ein aus Holz errichtetes Seezeichen in Cuxhaven. Der Ausdruck Bake geht auf das Mittelalter zurück, in dem alle Seezeichen – also auch Leuchttürme – so genannt wurden. Sie ist das Wahrzeichen von Cuxhaven, und seit 1913 ist ihr Abbild im Wappen der Stadt vorhanden. Ein Vorgängerbauwerk diente auch als Leuchtturm; heute wird sie aber nur noch als Touristenattraktion nachts angestrahlt.
Sie steht an einem stark befahrenen Schifffahrtsweg in Cuxhaven-Döse und war ein wichtiger Orientierungspunkt für die Schifffahrt. Geographisch endet hier die Elbe, und es beginnt die Nordsee; aus nautischer Sicht trennt sie Außen- und Unterelbe. Die Elbmündung hat auf Höhe der Kugelbake eine Breite von etwa 18 km. Gleichzeitig markiert die Kugelbake den nördlichsten Punkt Niedersachsens. Symbolisch betrachtet, trennt das etwa 30 Meter hohe Seezeichen das Elbe- und das Weser-Mündungsgebiet voneinander.
Errichtet wurde die erste Kugelbake wahrscheinlich 1703 auf Veranlassung des Lotseninspektors Paul Allers, nachdem der bis zu dem Zeitpunkt dort vorhandene Peilpunkt, eine Gruppe von Bäumen, von einer heftigen Sturmflut fortgespült worden war.
Das Bauwerk ist aus Holz errichtet, die Lebensdauer war nie sehr lang, da Holzfäulnis, Witterung, Sturm und Flut der Bake heftig zusetzten, so dass sie spätestens nach 30 Jahren erneuert oder instandgesetzt werden musste. Die erste Erneuerung fand vermutlich 1737 statt.
1853 wurde das Kugelbakenlicht als nächtliche Orientierungshilfe eingerichtet, um die schwierige Fahrwasserkrümmung zu markieren. Es brannte in einer Hütte, die sich innerhalb der Kugelbake befand.
Bei Ausbruch des Deutsch-Französischen Krieges im Jahr 1870 wurde die Leuchthütte aus taktischen Gründen abgebaut, um dem Feind keinen Anhaltspunkt zu bieten. Auch zu Beginn des 1. Weltkriegs musste die Kugelbake weichen. 1924 wurde sie erneut errichtet. Allerdings wurden, anstelle der namengebenden Kugel, zwei runde rechtwinklig zusammengesetzte Scheiben an der Spitze angebracht.
Das Kugelbakenlicht wurde ab 1878 nur noch als Reserve benötigt, da ein Feuerschiff ganzjährig ausgelegt wurde.
Der berühmte Seefunkpionier Jonathan Zenneck versuchte um 1900 eine Funkverbindung zwischen dem Festland und den Schiffen auf der See herzustellen. Innerhalb der Kugelbake wurde eine Holzhütte errichtet, die mit den dafür notwendigen Antennen und technischen Geräten für die allererste Küstenfunkstelle ausgestattet war.
2001 gab die Wasser- und Schifffahrtsverwaltung die Kugelbake an die Bundesvermögensstelle zurück, da das Seezeichen seine nautische Bedeutung verloren hatte. Es wurde dann eine Stiftung zum Erhalt dieses historischen Wahrzeichens gegründet. So ist die Kugelbake seit 2002 im Besitz der Stadt Cuxhaven und steht unter Denkmalschutz. Die heutige Konstruktion stammt aus der Zeit nach 1945.

This was the absolute last shot of the night, and 2SiiCK's first official wedding shoot. I must take my hat off to ALL the amazing wedding photographers, this stuff is not easy!
Steve and I, had the pleasure to shoot this wedding this past Saturday, at The Prado in Balboa Park. It was my first time as a lead shooter, as I had shot a few as a 2nd before. We had a blast and the wedding was super cool. The band was amazing and everyone had a great time! At the very end of the night as everyone was getting on the buses to take them back to their hotel, the newlyweds were finally alone for the first time. It was quiet, and Steven and I had our cameras in our bags walking back to the car. We turned and saw the bride and groom running out of the reception hall. He turned to me and asked if I still had my camera out, and I said "in a second I will". He wanted a shot alone with his wife, Steven grabbed a flash and I grabbed my camera. I was hoping I could get a good shot, but only had time to take 3 shots, so I was not expecting much. They posed for the first shot, and it was ok, but I did not want a posed moment. So after the 2nd shot we told them we got it and they turned and said something to each other. I told Steven to hold up the flash again, and I said her name right as he kissed her, she turned and smiled, and we got the shot.
Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. John and Anne Nolie.
Enjoy,
Hector

Ribblehead Viaduct, Chapel-le-Dale, North Yorkshire
This image was taken a couple of months back after a full day around the amazing Ribblehead Viaduct and neighbouring waterfalls. We were heading back to the car and was about to put camera gear in the boot when I just looked back and had to take this image. I quickly got my camera back out of my bag and took a couple of images then in the distance I heard a train leaving Ribblehead station, so just waited a couple of minutes and got this image. Really happy with this image as I feel it captures everything about Ribblehead and its viaduct. One thing that I never noticed until I post processed the image is the mist appearing just behind the viaduct. It had a been a very warm day but the temperature did drop quite quick hence the mist.
Really can't wait to go back here during my next time up North.

Information
Ribblehead Viaduct is a railway viaduct across the valley of the River Ribble at Ribblehead, in North Yorkshire, England, 28 miles (45 km) north west of Skipton and 26 miles (42 km) south east of Kendal. The viaduct is a Grade II* listed building and a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
Ribblehead viaduct is 440 yards (400 m) long, and 104 feet (32 m) above the valley floor at its highest point. It is made up of twenty-four arches of 45 feet (14 m) span, with foundations 25 feet (7.6 m) deep. The north end of the viaduct is 13 feet (4.0 m) higher in elevation than the south end. 1.5 million bricks were used in the construction and some of the limestone blocks weighed 8 tons each.
It was designed by the engineer John Sydney Crossley. The first stone was laid on 12 October 1870 and the last in 1874. One thousand Navvies building the viaduct established shanty towns on the moors for themselves and their families. They named the towns after victories of the Crimean War, sarcastically for posh districts of London, and Biblical names. There were smallpox epidemics and deaths from industrial accidents; meaning that the church graveyard at Chapel-le-Dale had to be extended. One hundred navvies were killed during the construction of the viaduct.
In 1964, several brand new cars being carried on a freight train that was crossing the viaduct were blown off the wagons they were being carried upon and landed on the ground by the viaduct.
It is the longest and most famous viaduct on the Settle-Carlisle Railway. Ribblehead railway station is located less than half a mile to the south of the viaduct. Just to the north of it is the Blea Moor Tunnel, the longest tunnel on the Settle-Carlisle Line. It is located near the foot of the mountain of Whernside. The viaduct is curved, and so may be seen by passengers on the train.
The Settle-Carlisle line is one of three north-south main lines; along with the West Coast Main Line through Penrith and the East Coast Main Line via Newcastle. British Rail attempted to close the line in the 1980s, citing the reason that the viaduct was unsafe and would be expensive to repair. A partial solution was to single the line across the viaduct in 1985, preventing two trains from crossing simultaneously. The closure proposals generated tremendous protest and were eventually retracted. The viaduct, along with the rest of the line, was repaired and maintained and there are no longer any plans to close it.

The Vulturine Guineafowl (Acryllium vulturinum) is the largest and most spectacular of the guineafowl bird family. It is a resident breeder in northeast Africa, from southern Ethiopia through Kenya and just into northern Tanzania.
It breeds in dry and open habitats with scattered bushes and trees, such as savannah or grassland. It lays its usually 4-8 cream-coloured eggs in a well-hidden grass-lined scrape.
although all other guineafowl have unfeathered heads, this species looks particularly like a vulture because of the long bare neck and head.
The slim neck projects from a cape of long, glossy, blue and white hackles. The breast is cobalt blue, and the rest of the body plumage is black, finely spangled with white.
The sexes are similar, although the female is usually slightly smaller than the male and with smaller tarsal spurs. Young birds are mainly grey-brown, with a duller blue breast and short hackles.
Vulturine Guineafowl is a gregarious species, forming flocks outside the breeding season typically of about 25 birds. This species' food is seeds and small invertebrates. This guineafowl is terrestrial, and will run rather than fly when alarmed. Despite the open habitat, it tends to keep to cover, and roosts in trees. It makes loud chink-chink-chink-chink-chink calls.

Mandvi’s Vijay Vilas Palace stands majestically amidst the landscaped and beautifully manicured gardens watered by a number of water channels and equally impressive marble fountains. Located on the banks of the Rukmavati River, Mandvi was a bastioned town that used to serve as the summer retreat of the Kutch Kings. Tourists visiting Mandvi won’t grudge about the paucity of tourist attractions. Enjoying a distinctive popularity among the other major tourist hot spots is the Vijay Vilas Palace in Mandvi. The palace is a brilliant exemplification of Rajput architecture. One look at the palace and it won’t take the knowledgeable ones to understand that there is much similarity between the Vijay Vilas Palace, Mandvi and those of the Orcha and Datia palaces. Some of the noteworthy features of the palace comprise of central dome supported by pillars, the windows graced with colored glasses, the intricate and exquisite window carvings, the bastions at the corners and the extended porch. Another aspect that makes this place such a hot favorite for the tourists is the private beach that features air-conditioned and tented accommodation. If you claim to be a beach lover, you can’t possibly ignore the appeal of the beach that boasts of a pristine and untainted beauty.

Listen to Bill Medley, "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother"
Lyrics
The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when
But I'm strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he to bear
We'll get there
For I know
He would not encumber me
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
If I'm laden at all
I'm laden with sadness
That everyone's heart
Isn't filled with the gladness
Of love for one another
It's a long, long road
From which there is no return
While we're on the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy, he's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy, he's my brother...

Well you pass around the pipe and you all get high
Never even stop and wonder why
Maybe it’s because you wanna die
Maybe it’s just the way things have to be
You stay up late and drink too damn much whiskey
You know that sort of thing is kind of risky
Maybe it’s just because you like to feel frisky
Maybe it’s just because you like to feel free
Saddle Tramp
How many people watch you ridin’ by
Like a thunder cloud that floats
Across the Arizona sky
And wonder if they’re looking
At a mighty happy man
Or just a lonely breeze that drifts
Across the endless desert sand
Well it’s gettin’ kinda cold in Ruidoso
Abilene ain’t gettin’ any closer
One more drink, one more hand of poker
‘Cause a fool and his money’s
Gonna have to part
You’re too proud to ever show your sorrow
You don’t steal and you won’t beg or borrow
You may be here today but you’re gone tomorrow
There ain’t no strings on your boot heels
Or your heart
Saddle Tramp
How many people watch you ride away
Wonder why you never promise
To come back some day
Maybe thinking you were holding
All the pieces in your hand
Or are they slippin’ through your fingers
Like the endless desert sand

We all know that Chimpanzees are our closest living relatives genetically. They look like us, behave like us, raise families like us and even laugh like us! However I had never thought I would get to see them relax like us. We saw this endearing family at the Chimpanzee sanctuary at the Ol Pejeta Conservancy and it was probably one of the most fascinating hours I have ever spent. We saw them playing with each other, picking lice, inspecting each other nether regions and whacking the younger ones when they fell out of line. And when it all became too much, the elders literally just put their feet up. I mean who doesn’t want to do that from time to time hey?
You know what’s my favourite part of this photograph? It’s the soft multi-stroke multi-colour background. I know it is a gigantic leap of faith, but it reminds me of the kind of strokes Van Gogh used for his pictures. They were all distinct, sharp, yet part of a consolidated whole. I can’t pretend that was my idea when I took the photograph, it was very much an accident, but I did darken the image significantly to draw out the colours. Such accidents delight me to no ends, even though they might not be a big deal to anybody else. Does it happen to you too?!
And on a lighter not happy weekend Guys! Time to put your feet up!

New York is the most populous city in the United States and the center of the New York metropolitan area, one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world.[6] The city is referred to as New York City or the City of New York to distinguish it from the State of New York, of which it is a part. A global power city,[7] New York exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment. The home of the United Nations Headquarters,[8] New York is an important center for international diplomacy[9] and has been described as the cultural capital of the world.[10][11]
On one of the world's largest natural harbors,[12] New York City consists of five boroughs, each of which is a county of New York State.[13] The five boroughs—the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island—were consolidated into a single city in 1898.[14] With a census-estimated 2013 population of 8,405,837[4] distributed over a land area of just 305 square miles (790 km2),[15] New York is the most densely populated major city in the United States.[16] As many as 800 languages are spoken in New York,[17][18] making it the most linguistically diverse city in the world.[19] By 2013 census estimates, the New York Metropolitan Area's population remains by a significant margin the United States' largest Metropolitan Statistical Area, with approximately 19.9 million people,[20] and is also part of the most populous Combined Statistical Area in the United States, containing an estimated 23.4 million people.
Recent find - There are plenty of these near a lake off Sarjapura Road. Approaching them is tough - They are fast on their feet as well. It's hard to find this bird sitting at one place.
Shot this lying flat on the ground - took a while to approach, but the bird wasn't able to see me which ended up being good for me. :-)
One of my first attempts at backlit shots - I'm not too excited about the results though.
Scientifc Name : Cisticola juncidis
Not to be confused with Indian Bushlark - Bushlark has a thicker bill.

Beloeil (literally "beautiful eye") is one of the largest and most beautiful castle in Belgium. It was founded in the 13th century as a medieval fortress, then was progressively transformed into a residential palace in the 17th and 18th century. The central part of the castle was devastated by a fire in 1900, and rebuilt 2 years later.
Since 1394, the castle has belonged to the Princes of Ligne, one of Belgium's highest ranking noble family. The family has its roots in the village of Ligne, eight kilometres north-east of Beloeil.
The castle has a pleasant French-style park expanding on 120 hectares - the greatest part of which runs across the village of Beloeil, outside the property's boundaries. A rectangular artificial lake faces the castle, with classical statues at each end. Take a look at the enormous carps that swim in the moat surrounding the castles.
The 18th-century classical interior reminds of Versailles and is certainly in accordance with the princely status of the proprietors. It contains an impressive collection of art from the 15th to the 19th century, including an impressive library with some 20,000 books.

Season Suite by John Denver (1972)
Open up your eyes and see "the" brand new day
A clear blue sky and brightly shining sun
Open up your ears and hear the breezes say
Everything that's cold and gray "is" gone
Open up your hands and feel the rain come "on" down
Taste the wind and smell the flowers' sweet perfume
Open up your mind and let the light "shine" in
The earth has been reborn and life goes on
"And" do you care what's happening around you
Do your senses know the changes when they come
Can you see yourself reflected in the seasons
Can you understand the need to carry on
"Writing" on the tapestry of all there is to see
So many ways and oh so many things
Rejoicing in the differences, there's no one just like me
Yet as different as we are we're still the same
And oh I love the life within me
I feel a part of everything I see
And oh I love the life "around" me
A part of everything is here in me
shedding.
im losing my petals one at a time, and it hurts me to see them go.
oh my gosh this is lame. today went so terribly wrong in so many strange ways.
first off, i went up to the lake to shoot with laina, had this fantastic idea... realized i didnt have enough black paint, shot about ten failed photos, and then my camera died.. again. my camera always dies because im always using it. :(
so then i went home... feeling a little saddened. but then the day seemed a little brighter when i spotted a turtle in my front yard. she was oh so cute. i carried her around with me for a bit while i finished some errands and planned for my 365 to be all about my new friend. so i went outside and got all set up. i set my turtle in the grass while i got ready, and when i turned around she was gone!!! i thought turtles were supposed to be slow?? i looked everywhere, but she had surely disappeared. so this photo is what came next. i was just thinking about how many opportunities i missed today. i also felt like a winter wonderland princess lost and confused in a field of green.
p.s. that is a christmas tree skirt i am wearing. my famiy thought i was losing my mind when they saw me wearing it.
La Plaza de la Concordia o en francés, place de la Concorde está situada al comienzo de la Avenida de los Campos Elíseos en el distrito 8, de París, en Francia ( [mostrar el lugar en un mapa interactivo] 48°51′55.81″N 2°19′15.95″E / 48.8655028, 2.3210972). Se trata de la décima más grande de Francia después de la Plaza de Quinconces en Burdeos.
Durante la Revolución francesa, la plaza es el lugar de paso obligado por los cortejos, improvisados o preparados por el protocolo de las fiestas. Será uno de los grandes lugares de alianza del período revolucionario, sobre todo cuando la guillotina estuvo allí instalada.Es donde Luis XVI y María Antonieta fueron ejecutados.
es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plaza_de_la_Concordia
La place de la Concorde est située au pied de l'avenue des Champs-Élysées dans le 8e arrondissement à Paris, en France. Il s'agit de la deuxième plus vaste place de France (après la place des Quinconces à Bordeaux). Métro Ce site est desservi par la station de métro : Concorde.
Dès le 12 juillet 1789, les bustes de Jacques Necker et de Philippe d'Orléans y sont exhibés ; le prince de Lambesc et ses dragons chargent les manifestants. Le lendemain, la foule pille les armes du Garde-meuble (situé dans le bâtiment nord-est) pour « aller à la Bastille ». Le 6 octobre, Louis XVI, Marie-Antoinette, et le dauphin (futur Louis XVII), ramenés de Versailles à Paris par le peuple, font leur entrée au palais des Tuileries en traversant la place Louis-XV.
fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_de_la_Concorde
The Place de la Concorde is one of the major squares in Paris, France. It is located in the city's eighth arrondissement, at the eastern end of the Champs-Élysées.
The center of the Place is occupied by a giant Egyptian obelisk decorated with hieroglyphics exalting the reign of the pharaoh Ramses II. It is one of two the Egyptian government gave to the French in the nineteenth century. The other one stayed in Egypt, too difficult and heavy to move to France with the technology at that time. In the 90's, President Mitterand gave the second obelisk back to the Egyptians.
The obelisk once marked the entrance to the Luxor Temple. The viceroy of Egypt, Mehemet Ali, offered the 3,300-year-old Luxor Obelisk to France in 1831. The obelisk arrived in Paris on December 21, 1833. Three years later, on October 25, 1836, King Louis-Philippe had it placed in the centre of Place de la Concorde, where a guillotine used to stand during the Revolution.
The red granite column rises 23 metres (75 ft) high, including the base, and weighs over 250 metric tons (280 short tons). Given the technical limitations of the day, transporting it was no easy feat — on the pedestal are drawn diagrams explaining the machinery that were used for the transportation. The obelisk is flanked on both sides by fountains constructed at the time of its erection on the Place.
Missing its original cap, believed stolen in the 6th century BC, the government of France added a gold-leafed pyramid cap to the top of the obelisk in 1998.
Without warning, in 2000 French urban climber Alain "Spiderman" Robert, using only his bare hands and feet and with no safety devices, scaled the obelisk all the way to the top.
Most people (anyway, most consumers of media in the west) have seen this place before. A lot. During the week you can practically assume you'll see some kind of filming or photography happening here.
And why not? It's a weird, beautiful, fantastic place. It's easy for film crews and average people to access. As a Los Angeles County Park, it's free to visit (you'll need to buy a permit for major filming though). People come here to hike, picnic, and climb the rocks (as the pair in this picture have done, even though lightning is crashing bumptiously from the sky not far to the east.) The park itself is much more than just this particular set of rocks, but these are the most iconic ones. The park comprises almost 1,000 acres of this freakish, alien, haphazard terrain created by sandstone strata tossed about willy-nilly by the ever fascinating San Andreas Fault.
And so, given that photographing and filming this place is almost a cliche, why do I keep coming back here to shoot? Maybe because the landscape of Vasquez Rocks is ingrained in my being. I came of age yearning to be roaming in landscapes like this when instead I was trapped in classrooms not that far away. When I was able, weekends and after school, I did roam in a landscape much like this, either hiking or riding horseback, dreaming of different ways I could conspire to be someone else. Someone not me. Vasquez Rocks is like that place I came of age in, only moreso. More of everything. Bolder, vaster, bigger, stranger: In a word, it's even more landscapey.
Occasionally, when I close my eyes, I see this place without meaning to--without even desiring to. I drive by here every evening and when I think the light is just right, I stop and shoot. It doesn't matter to me how many times this place has "been done." I'll keep coming back with a camera as long as there is sweet light and as long as I remain happy to be me.
Here's a partial list of where you may have seen Vasquez Rocks before:

Part III of the Void series.
Shot with a telephoto lens with a wide aperture at dusk at the Oosterscheldekering.
It is the largest of the 13 ambitious Delta works series of dams, designed to protect the Netherlands from flooding. The construction of the Delta Works was in response to the North_Sea_Flood_of_1953 during which 1,835 people were killed in the Netherlands.
I can tell you there was a hard wind and high tide when I took this shot. Huge waves wetting my camera gear and there was a strange atmosphere out there. Something eery about that place where the sea unveiled its majestic power to me.

Mjedë je vesnice v severní Albánii, nacházející se v okrese Shkodër a spadající pod administrativní jednotku obce Vau i Dejës. Leží v úrodné nížině Zadrima, přibližně 17 kilometrů jihozápadně od města Shkodër. Tato lokalita je historicky spojena s významným albánským šlechtickým rodem Mjeda, který sehrál klíčovou roli v kulturním, náboženském i politickém životě Albánie a Kosova během 19. a počátku 20. století. Rodina Mjeda pochází právě z této oblasti a její členové se výrazně podíleli na formování národního obrození a moderní identity Albánců.
Je krátce před půl sedmou ráno dne 7. května 2024 a na místním nádraží právě zastavil osobní vlak číslo 2 [Shkodër – Laç Gjorm] v čele s lokomotivou T669.1044, který je vypravován v období od března do června každé úterý. Do vlaku nastoupilo přibližně dvacet místních obyvatel, jejichž cílem je převážně poutní místo ve městě Laç. Tento spoj slouží především poutníkům a věřícím, kteří každoročně navštěvují zdejší svatyni svatého Antonína, jedno z nejvýznamnějších poutních míst v Albánii.
Na pozadí se rozprostírá mírně zvlněná pahorkatina, která představuje přirozený geomorfologický přechod mezi albánskou pobřežní nížinou jihozápadně od Skadarského jezera a masivem Albánských Alp (Bjeshkët e Nemuna, známých také jako Prokletije). Ačkoliv tato oblast nedosahuje tak výrazného a dramatického reliéfu jako severní horské partie, tvoří významnou přechodovou zónu – místo, kde se rovinný charakter nížiny postupně transformuje v členitý horský terén.

This image was very tricky to shoot and difficult to manipulate because I did not have any idea on how to make it work.
There's only very slight motion going on because I wanted to make it look almost like a freeze frame.
The final works are actually not in print format, they're projected onto the center of the frame she enters (in the First Phase) coupled with a soundtrack and sound effects. I have the video but didn't do a recording of it being projected onto the frame. It's probably going to go up for exhibition at my school so maybe I'll a recording then.
So glad it's over! Sleeping, getting back to games and online shopping are currently my top priorities.
I'll still be shooting, but I might be trying a new style. (This whole series was quite new to me, having the make the settings etc, it's also aesthetically quite different from my preferred ghostly themed work or vintage inspired photographs) I'm not sure yet but possibilities are endless. One thing though, I really don't like studio lights, it just doesn't seem to fit what I do so I'll still be using natural lighting :D Might want to try incorporating drawing with photography or maybe take up digital painting and see how things go from there.

View Large On Black Twice a day if you get your times right the sunlight steams down the whole length of Oxford Street..not quite the right time in the above shot.. but its an in to ask for some advice..
I really want to do some shots shooting into direct sunlight.(people framed by light). I've tried a few times without much success...Can anyone offer any advice or suggestions on how to accomplish this without blowing out the shot or not getting enough definition from the subject ????
I could pick any number of shots from Ian (Stryker66) photostream as an example of what I am trying to do.. He is a Master at this!!!... I wanted to try and work this out myself before admitting defeat....
Sometimes the most painful choice is the most freeing. - By Rosie
Karen's lesson was a painful one, one that would scar her for the rest of her life.
Inspiration:
Have you ever heard about The Red Shoes?
This shoot was fun to do but the outcome wasn't good.
It looks very strange because my right hand looks ethereal and it looks like I photoshopped myself in when I didnt. The blood and my amputated legs didn't quite turn out as the way I hoped they would. But I love this location, I walk past this place every time I take the bus, it's swarming with mosquitoes though. I've been wanted to take a photo outdoors for sometime and finally I have!
Everyone kept staring at me when I walked out of my house (odd though because my neighborhood is usually quiet, someone was hosting a party today), I felt a little weird.
This week was an interesting week, I had the most terrifying but most awesome experience in my whole life, for once I seriously feared for my life. I shot outdoors twice, I willingly let someone photograph me (I'm really scared when posing in front of another person's lens, anyone else feel the same?) and I discovered new places to shoot, I never expected Singapore to actually have some beautiful locations! Although you'll get attacked by a billion mosquitoes.
Overall? I loved this week, I loved shooting this, but I didn't really like the outcome.
And I'm turning 18 next week! I can't wait! I've been waiting to turn 18 for a long time and I wanna stay 18 forever.
