Ermita de san Jorge
Se inspira fielmente en los templos clásicos. Es de estilo neoclasico. Tambíen se la conoce como ""El Partenón"", por estar edificada a la manera de un templo de orden corintio.
Mandada construir en 1890 por los duques de Santo Mauro, que igualmente mandaron construir el Palacio de Hornillos que se encuentra al lado.
Es una iglesia muy interesante dada la escasez de monumentos neoclásicos puros en Cantabria.
Thank´s to Pareeerica for the texture

I don't repost often old shots, but tonight this is perfect to mean what I feel - shot and quote and music too ... so, please, don't mind - I feel blue - but a good kind of blue! - and curry, yes, more curry than blue! - and I feel lucky :-)
good night you all!, and thank you very much for your friendship and appreciation ...

The Kunsthaus Tacheles is a former department store which since 1990 houses a self-organized collective of artists on Oranienburger Straße (old Jewish quarter) in Berlin-Mitte. The word "Tacheles" comes from a Yiddish word for "plain, honest, straightforward talk".
Tacheles has a very long and interesting history - if you wish to know something more:
It represents - somehow - what Berlin is to me: a strange, intense, deep, contradictory, fascinating "body" of past and present, creativity and culture, history and future, memory and oblivion, richness and poverty, west and east, europe and world ...
enjoy ... :-)
A shot from recently concluded national day celebrations of Qatar
Qatar National Day takes place every year on Dec. 18.
It marks the day in 1878 that Sheikh Jassim Bin Mohammad Bin Thani succeeded his father as leader of the tribes of Qatar.
Fighting for independence from the Ottomans, the British and other Arabian Peninsula tribes, Sheikh Jassim is considered the founder of Qatar for unifying oft-divided local tribes under his leadership, and winning autonomy for them.

Imperial Beach just after sunset. Winter yields the best colored skies in San Diego... good thing it doesn't get too cold here in Southern Cali. The IB Pier is one of my favorite places to photograph. I don't get too many photo opportunities because my kids are still young... definitely need to find more time to just get out and go. For this photo I used a Lee .9 ND Grad Filter (with Cokin holder)... also bracketed for HDR.

Martín Szyszlican, fue testigo de los momentos previos a lo relatado por Clarín horas mas tarde. El origen de los hechos, pinchando aquí.
En imagen: Tramo ubicado pocos metros antes de llegar a 1ª Junta. Túnel independiente Norte que enlaza actualmente con la vía 4 proveniente de Primera Junta. Por aquí tuvieron que caminar los pasajeros varados entre las estaciones Carabobo y Puan, teniendo que caminar hasta la "terminal operativa" de la línea. A pesar de todo, la terminal física sigue siendo Carabobo. La gente sabrá que esto es así?
12:42 Fue esta mañana, cuando una formación quedó detenida entre Carabobo y Puan. Tras permanecer más de media hora dentro del coche, la empresa los hizo bajar y caminar por las vías hacia la estación Primera Junta.

Más de media hora encerrados y sin respuestas. Así estuvieron los pasajeros de una formación de la línea A de subtes, que quedó varada esta mañana, alrededor de las 10, entre las estaciones Carabobo y Puan. "Después de media hora, abrieron las puertas y nos avisaron que nos teníamos que bajar y caminar hasta Primera Junta", contó Mara, una de las damnificadas.
"Fue un mal momento. Nadie nos decía nada. Luego pusieron una escalera y nos bajaron pero a mí me tuvieron que ayudar porque estoy embarazada", agregó Mara en diálogo con Clarín.com. Tras el incidente, efectuó el reclamo por escrito. Lo propio hizo Diego Garre. "Tomé el tren en Carabobo aproximadamente a las 9:35/40. A las 10:08 llamé al 0800-555-1616 ya que la gente empezaba a bajar de los trenes sin que nadie avise nada, y ahí me informaron que si, que había un problema y que espere al personal. El personal estaba en la entrada de la estación Primera Junta haciendo señales, pero nadie vino a avisarnos que pasaba y de que manera debíamos descender del tren", contó.
Jorge Castro, otro de los damnificados, también se quejó. "Todos los empleados del subte desaparecieron y solo quedaron para tratar de dar explicaciones una pareja de policías, desbordados por la gente".
Desde la empresa Metrovías, confirmaron que la línea A estuvo interrumpida porque una formación, que iba hacia el centro, tuvo un desperfecto técnico a la altura de la estación Primera Junta. "Se les pidió a los pasajeros que se bajen y se pasen a otra formación, pero había un grupo que se negó y se generó como un tapón", dijo un vocero.
No alcanzó para calmar la furia de los usuarios. "Nos sentimos, ultrajados, basureados, vapuleados y creo que me quedo corta con estos adjetivos calificativos", opinó Marta Cestaro, que estuvo en la formación varada.

Part of my weekend was spent in this Buddhist temple, Hwaeomsa Temple. This is one of the most important temples in Korea, dating back to the Silla Dynasty (544). You can read more about the temple here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hwaeomsa.

This rather large Drogonfly landed on the hitch of my boat trailer and of course I had to run for the camera. When I looked at the Dragon through the lens I was surprised to see it was chowing down on a Hornet or Wasp not sure which it was, but he was sure enjoying it.
One of my favorite photo in this trip. I took this shot with fisheye so that can present what i feel when i walked under these giant trees.
The tallest known redwood is about 600 years old and was measured at 367.8 feet.The seed is no bigger than one from a tomato,
Lady Bird Johnson Grove,Redwood,California.
About the tree:
Could you use a good fish story today? Once upon a time there were these beautiful fish who lived five miles under the ocean. How do I know? They were the subject of a PBS television special. So this is a for real fish story. Because these fish are really striking - they are incredibly colorful - some folks thought they might look good in someone's tropical fish aquarium. So, they tried to bring these fish to the surface. They didn't make it. They blew up when they got near the surface! They were designed to live under that pressure at the bottom. No happy ending - except they're leaving the rest of them where they belong - five miles under the ocean. That's where they were created to be!
It really works this way in all of God's creation. There's an environment that things and people were created to be in, and things really work when they're in that place. They really don't work very well when they're not where they were designed to be. Thankfully, God makes very clear the environment you and I were created for, so we don't have to waste our lives searching for it. In fact, probably the single most important question you have to answer while you're on earth is this: Why am I here?
God answers that question in six simple, life-changing words in His book the Bible. Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Colossians 1:16. Speaking of Jesus Christ, the Bible says, "All things were" - now here are the six words - "created by Him and for Him." Try putting your name in that Biblical statement. Here we go. "(Your name) was created by Jesus and for Jesus." Just like those fish were created to be in the pressure of that deep-sea environment. Just like the earth was created to be in an orbit around the sun, you were created for Jesus. You were created by Jesus for a relationship with Jesus, where you live for Jesus.
All these years you've been away from the one that your heart's been searching for all along. Isn't it time to experience the relationship you were made for - to finally be where you were born to be?

Dove vai quando poi resti sola
il ricordo come sai non consola
Quando lei se ne andò per esempio
Trasformai la mia casa in tempio
E da allora solo oggi non farnetico più
a guarirmi chi fu
ho paura a dirti che sei tu
Ora noi siamo già più vicini
Io vorrei non vorrei ma se vuoi
Come può uno scoglio
arginare il mare
anche se non voglio
torno già a volare
Le distese azzurre
e le verdi terre
Le discese ardite
e le risalite
su nel cielo aperto
e poi giù il deserto
e poi ancora in alto
con un grande salto
Dove vai quando poi resti sola
senza ali tu lo sai non si vola
Io quel dì mi trovai per esempio
quasi sperso in quel letto così ampio
Stalattiti sul soffitto i miei giorni con lei
io la morte abbracciai
ho paura a dirti che per te
mi svegliai
Oramai fra di noi solo un passo
Io vorrei non vorrei ma se vuoi
Come può uno scoglio
arginare il mare
anche se non voglio
torno già a volare
Le distese azzurre
e le verdi terre
le discese ardite
e le risalite
su nel cielo aperto
e poi giù il deserto
e poi ancora in alto
con un grande salto

I noticed that the Karma group on flickr is having a before and after for black and white conversions so I decided to upload the color version of a black and white landscape I had posted earlier. Let me know if you prefer the color version I would love to know!
This is of the Porcelain Basin area within Norris Geyser Basin at Yellowstone National Park. The high contrast scene seemed to be well-suited to black and white.

The donkey is ill and this I use to show you my back program of my stream.
Enjoy the pictures you will see.
In case that you noticed that at my flickrfriend Petra pictures are missing, somebody makes jokes since years now on here stream and deletes pictures from her stream.
FLiCKR knows about this but they do nothing.
Instead of feeding the donkey monkey with a new algorythmn, they should better invent this drama and stop the one who has fun when he delete art from another person.
Go HeRe and look at her stream, maybe tomorrow her pitures are deleted!!!

White Oleander . . .a gift from Victoria, came with a little red spider for good luck.
Oleander grows well in warm subtropical regions, where it is extensively used as an ornamental plant in landscapes, parks, and along roadsides. It is drought tolerant and will tolerate occasional light frost down to -10°C, 14F [2]. It is commonly used as a decorative freeway median in California and other mild-winter states in the Continental United States because deer will not eat it due to its high toxicity, it is tolerant of a variety of poor soils, and drought tolerant. It can also be grown in cooler climates in greenhouses and conservatories, or as indoor plants that can be kept outside in the summer. Oleander flowers are showy and fragrant and are grown for these reasons. Over 400 cultivars have been named, with several additional flower colours not found in wild plants having been selected, including red, purple, pink and orange; white and a variety of pinks are the most common. Many cultivars also have double flowers. Young plants grow best in spaces where they do not have to compete with other plants for nutrients.

Location: Along a fishing-lake at Haren-Ems (Emsland) Germany.
Description: Taken this morning while I was driving somewhere near the city Haren, when I noticed a large (sport-fishing) lake on the right side of the road. Initially I wanted to take some shots of this lake together with these thick cloud formation. But when I looked at the right side along this lake, I noticed these streamlined sky that seemed like a vein of heaven. So, I mounted the camera on my Manfrotto, made some shots, with different f-stops, from a low-angled position. When I got home, I was really surprised about how the sky eventually turned out: it was exactly what I had in mind, but it wasn't quite noticeable on spot with the relatively little LCD-display and bright low-angled morning sunlight.
Exposure: 3 brackets of -2 Ev, +/-0 Ev and +2 Ev at f/8, securely mounted on a Manfrotto 190.
Technique: HDR Tone Mapping & PS color and contrast enhancements.
¿Quién eres tú, la que me canta?
Recuerdo ahora el mar. ¡El mar! Si yo pudiera
volver al mar a aquella playa
donde llovía siempre. Allá arriba las verdes colinas
y más allá la tierra escarlata, y la Gran Cordillera
que vigila volcanes, el viento que sopla desde allí,
y el cielo de cristal.
Nadie en las dunas.
La lluvia ahuyenta
y me deja solo en esta playa de pronto interminable.

spent the early hours of sunday morning with IAN,at St.Marys Island,Whitley Bay.
we steered clear of the causeway (which attracted half a dozen or so other photographers) and headed around the bay instead.the problem being we were out of sight of the sunrise,so instead had to put more emphasis on the coastal features.that said,i was still struggling to control the very bright sky,which was pretty cloudless and not as moody as i would have liked.still you cant have everything all the time i suppose.(clear blue skies and the north east of England in november do not normally go hand in hand).i have 4 or 5 shots to post this week,from this shoot,and although they all may look similar at first glance,i think you will see that the main compositions are all totally unique.i enjoyed this trip as i think it made me look harder for compositions as there was no great sunrise to hide behind.
i hope you like the results :)
NEXT SUNDAYS MEET AT HOLY ISLAND IS STILL A CERT,SO LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING SOME OF YOU FOLKS,BOTH NEW AND OLD.UNTIL THEN,HAVE A GREAT WEEK EVERYONE

An old man turned ninety-eight
He won the lottery and died the next day
It's a black fly in your Chardonnay
It's a death row pardon two minutes too late
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Mr. Play It Safe was afraid to fly
He packed his suitcase and kissed his kids goodbye
He waited his whole damn life to take that flight
And as the plane crashed down he thought
"Well isn't this nice..."
And isn't it ironic... don't you think
It's like rain on your wedding day
It's a free ride when you've already paid
It's the good advice that you just didn't take
Who would've thought... it figures
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you
When you think everything's okay and everything's going right
And life has a funny way of helping you out when
You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up
In your face

North Star Roller Girl Rhea Lentless is also a very talented wedding photographer. She asked me to come along as second shooter this past Saturday. We had lots of fun in the small arboretum by the Walker Art Gallery in Minneapolis, before moving to the ceremony itself in the (gorgeous) flower-pool garden of the McNeeley Conservatory in Saint Paul.
Rhea let me stage a few on my own. I just 'saw' this in my head but we couldn't find the groomsmen so we almost bailed on it. I'm glad now we didn't! It's one of my favorites from the whole day! :-)
Ronda was first settled by the early Celts, but its subsequent Roman and then Moorish rulers are reflected most prominently in its architecture. The forces of Catholic Spain took control of the town in 1485, during the Reconquista.
Ronda is situated in a very mountainous area about 750 metres (2,500 ft) above mean sea level. The Guadalevín River runs through the city, dividing it in two and carving out the steep, 100 plus meters deep El Tajo canyon upon which the city perches.
Three bridges, Puente Romano ("Roman Bridge", also known as the Puente San Miguel), Puente Viejo ("Old Bridge", also known as the Puente Arabe or "Arab Bridge") and Puente Nuevo ("New Bridge"), span the canyon. The term "nuevo" is a bit of a misnomer, as the building of this bridge commenced in 1751 and took until 1793 to complete. The Puente Nuevo is the tallest of the bridges, towering 120 metres (390 ft) above the canyon floor, and all three serve as some of the city's most impressive features.

I wake up feeling like my life's worth living
Can't recall when I last felt that way
Guess it must be all this love you're giving
Never knew never knew it could be like this

Today i was feeling really out of shape but then we did a super intense workout in dance. It was so great.
+1 in comments! Shooting these was so fun. people kept driving by and most didn't look except for this one guy that i saw, he stared at me!
Excerpt from fpf.ccidahk.gov.hk/en/location/detail.php?id=76:
Tsuen Wan Jockey Club Tak Wah Park was designed along the classical Chinese garden theme. The park, with an area of about 1.63 hectares, is located in Tsuen Wan town centre. Being a Chinese-style garden that is rarely found in Tsuen Wan, Tak Wah Park provides a fine place for relaxation in the bustling town area. Sponsored by the Hong Kong Jockey Club, construction works of the park were carried out in 2 phases. Phase I was completed in 1989, while Phase II was completed in 1995. Modelled on the setup of a classical Chinese garden, the park has rock mountains made from Taihu rock, thick foliage, ornamental lakes, ancient village houses, a "pai lau", stone bridge, a stone boat, a pavilion and a verandah. A "Chess Garden" was built in the park, where giant stone-carved pieces of Chinese chess are used to display the endgame for the deliberation of chess lovers. In addition, there are 2 theme gardens in the park, namely, "Camellia Garden" and "Herb Garden", where different species of Camellia and herb are grown. Tak Wah Gallery and Environmental Resources Centre are converted from ancient village houses on the site. They are managed by Leisure and Cultural Services Department and Environmental Protection Department respectively.

Title from the song made popular by Debbie Boone.
So many nights I sit by my window
Waiting for someone to sing me his song
So many dreams I kept deep inside me
Alone in the dark but now
You've come along
You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights with song
Rollin' at sea, adrift on the water
Could it be finally I'm turning for home?
Finally, a chance to say hey,
I love You
Never again to be all alone
You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights with song
You light up my life
You give me hope
To carry on
You light up my days
and fill my nights with song
It can't be wrong
When it feels so right
'Cause You
You light up my life
