La calle de Balborraz es una de las calles más antiguas de Zamora. Se encuentra ubicada en el casco histórico de la ciudad y tiene su inicio en la Plaza Mayor. La calle se denomina Balborraz del árabe "bab al ras" que se traduce como "puerta de la cabeza". Esta denominación proviene de la época del siglo X en el que se produjo la batalla denominada día de Zamora. Existía una puerta del mismo nombre que la calle, abierta sobre la murallas y que fue demolida en el año 1555 por amenazar ruina. La calle reúne una estampa puramente tradicional y artesana. Por su trazado han procesionado algunas de las comitivas más importantes de la Semana Santa. Vía de acceso al centro económico-administrativo de la ciudad desde el otro lado del río.
La calle supone una bajada en cuesta desde la Plaza hasta el Duero. Enlaza desde la Plaza Mayor, adyacente al Ayuntamiento Viejo la calle baja en cuesta pronunciada hasta enlazar, sin solución de continuidad, hasta la calle de la Plata. De recorrido quebrado y anchura variable. Es desde el siglo X una calle de artesanos que enlazaba la judería vieja con el casco antiguo de Zamora. Los artesanos más típicos: caldereros, carpilleros, alfamareros, herreros, laneros, lateros. La Puerta de Balborraz estuvo desde el siglo X en la calle que dio su nombre y en su dintel existía la cabeza esculpida de Ahmed-ben-Moavia (Posiblemente origen etimológico del nombre de la puerta). Existe en un lado de calle una placa conmemorativa al centenario del imaginero coresano Ramón Álvarez Prieto (La lápida pone Ramón "Álvarez Moretón" por error).en honor al taller que tuvo allí este coresano. Otro ilustre vecino de la calle (en el nº 16) vivió Manuel Boizas López escritor y erudito de la ciudad. Antaño vivió Men Rodríguez de Sanabria mayordomo real de Pedro I. En el número 54 estuvo un palacio denominado de las golondrinas.
Algunas de las ferias importantes de la ciudad como la anual de san Pedro se han celebrado en la calle, mercado de trillos. La mayoría de las casas actuales son de finales del siglo XIX, comienzos del XX. La aparición de nuevos medios de locomoción, incompatibles con la fuerte pendiente de la calle desplazó su protagonismo comercial. La rehabilitación realizada en la calle a mediados de los años noventa fue premiada por Europa Nostra en el año 1997. Mantiene parte de su calzada de cantos rodados.(Wikipedia)

Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares - Sevilla
El Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de la ciudad de Sevilla (Andalucía, España) está localizado en la plaza de América del parque de María Luisa. Al otro lado de la plaza se encuentra el Museo Arqueológico. Fue el pabellón de Arte Antiguo de la Exposición Iberoamericana de 1929.
Fue planteado como pabellón de Industrias, Manufacturas y Artes Decorativas. Finalmente, se le llamó pabellón de Arte Antiguo e Industrias Artísticas. Se trata de un edificio proyectado en 1913 y construido en 1914 por el arquitecto Aníbal González, autor también de los otros edificios levantados en la misma plaza de América. Es de ladrillo visto con motivos decorativos de cerámica. Por su estilo arquitectónico, fue conocido como el pabellón Mudéjar.
En principio constaba de dos plantas sobre una cámara de aireación para evitar la humedad. Se realiza una mejora durante la década de 1960 en la planta principal, que tenía más de doce metros de altura, y se dividió con una planta artificial (corresponde a la planta primera) por el arquitecto Antonio Delgado y Roig. En 1972 se unen las plantas con una gran escalera de caracol que diseña el arquitecto José Galnares Sagastizábal, trabajo que realiza después de que la construcción fuese designada para albergar el museo por el Decreto de Creación del Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares de Sevilla, con fecha de 23 de marzo de 1972, constituido como una sección del Museo de Bellas Artes.
Sus funciones como museo se desarrollan desde el 4 de marzo de 1973, fecha en que abre sus puertas al público.

Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville
The Museum of Arts and Popular Customs of Seville (Spanish: Museo de Artes y Costumbres Populares) is a museum in Seville, Andalusia, Spain, located in the María Luisa Park, across the Plaza de América from the Provincial Archeological Museum.
The museum occupies the Mudéjar Pavilion (Pabellón Mudéjar) designed by Aníbal González and built in 1914. It served as an art pavilion, the Pabellón de Arte Antiguo, for the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, when Aníbal González had the opportunity to design several additional permanent buildings for the plaza. The exterior is ceramic over brick, and has three doors with archivolts adorned with glazed tiles (azulejos).[citation needed]
The building originally consisted of two stories over an aeration chamber (necessary because of the humidity). In the 1960s, the main floor, originally over 12 metres (39 ft) high, was divided in two, with an intermediate level added by architect Delgado Roig. In 1972, as part of the preparations for the current museum, the various stories of the building were connected by a grand spiral staircase designed by José Galnares Sagastizábal.
The museum was established by a decree of 23 March 1972, initially as a section of the Museum of Fine Arts of Seville. It opened its doors to the public 4 March 1973.[2] For the next seven years, the museum fell under the responsibility of the Ministry of Education and Science, but the city government occupied more than half of the poorly maintained building. Neither institution took full responsibility. This situation led to a series of temporary closures. In 1976, the electric bill could not be paid, and the museum had to be shut until it could get power again. In 1979, heavy rains damaged the interior.

Picturesque framing of a coastal landscape with
a clear blue sky and calm blue water meeting a sandy and rocky shore. In the foreground, the water shows varying shades of blue, indicating depth changes or underwater features, and there's a visible transition to a clearer, shallower area near the shore. The shoreline itself is a mix of golden sand and scattered rocks.
In the mid ground, a cluster of palm trees lines the beach, suggesting a tropical or sub-tropical environment. Among the trees and slightly set back from the beach, there are some light-colored buildings adding a touch of human presence to the natural scene.
A distinctive feature in the background is a tall, slender minaret with a golden top, indicating the presence of a mosque.
The distant horizon shows a faint outline of land or mountains across the water, adding depth to the serene atmosphere of this popular diving and relaxation destination.

This portrait by Evert Ploej done in oil on jute in 1989 was an Archibald prize finalist. Evert Ploeg (pronounced Ay-vert Plough; born 1963 in Sydney, New South Wales) is one of Australia's most highly regarded portrait painters, who has won a range of painting prizes, such as the 1999 and 2007 Archibald Prize (Category: People’s Choice) and was awarded the highly coveted ‘Signature Status’ of The Portrait Society of America. Working in a tonal realist style (mostly in oil), Ploeg’s pictures bespeak an approach to portraiture that is inspired by documentary methods. Putting emphasis on visually encoding a personal narrative in any given portrait, he builds connection to his subjects through conversation and extended observation both during their sitting as well as in their engagements outside of the atelier. 57337
A snag, for those not into birds and such, is a dead tree often used as a perch for our feathered and sometimes scaly friends. The sunrise cast some nice pastel colors in the west, behind this snag, which attracted me and, who knows, the critters shown here as well. Represented are two Little Blue Herons, two Cattle Egrets and one Iguana. Boynton Beach, Florida (Little Blue Heron - Egretta caerulea; Cattle Egret - (Bubulcus ibis); Green Iguana, an invasive well established in south Florida, with the incredibly inventive scientific name of Iguana iguana.) A couple of tips: Little Blue Herons start out as white but can be easily distinguished from Cattle Egrets by their bill, which has a black tip, like it was dipped in ink, unlike a Cattle Egret's which is all yellow. Iguanas, which I like until they poop on my stuff, are mostly vegetarian and often share quarters with their roosting avian buddies, only occasionally taking an egg, or so I've heard.

The red flowering gum is the place to be at the moment! Today it was full of New Holland Honeyeaters, many bees, and a good number of these happy Rainbow Lorikeets.
In one of those delicious co-incidences, while I was uploading this image, I had some music on in the background, and the track was A Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong, with the lyric being "the colours of the rainbow". I love it when that happens. (I love the track too - wonderful lyrics).

The very popular Eilean Donan Castle at Dornie in the western Highlands of Scotland. This castle has a long history beginning in the 6th/7th century when this small island was used as the site for a chapel. The first castle was built here around 12th/13th century. It became a stronghold of the Clan Mackenzie and their allies, the Clan Macrae. However, in response to the Mackenzies' involvement in the Jacobite rebellions early in the 18th century, government ships destroyed the castle in 1719. It lay in ruins from then until 1911. The current building is Lieutenant-Colonel John Macrae-Gilstrap's 20th-century reconstruction of the old castle and was built between 1912 and 1932.
I think there must be a law that if you go to Scotland you have to visit this castle. It is such a Scottish icon.
