Many hilltops in Portugal and other parts of Europe have been sites of religious devotion since antiquity, and it is possible that the Bom Jesus hill was one of these. However, the first indication of a chapel over the hill dates from 1373. This chapel - dedicated to the Holy Cross - was rebuilt in the 15th and 16th centuries. In 1629 a pilgrimage church was built dedicated to the Bom Jesus (Good Jesus), with six chapels dedicated to the Passion of Christ. The present Sanctuary started being built in 1722, under the patronage of the Archbishop of Braga, Rodrigo de Moura Telles. His coat of arms is seen over the gateway, in the beginning of the stairway. Under his direction the first stairway row, with chapels dedicated to the Via Crucis, were completed. Each chapel is decorated with terra cotta sculptures depicting the Passion of Christ. He also sponsored the next segment of stairways, which has a zigzag shape and is dedicated to the Five Senses. Each sense (Sight, Smell, Hearing, Touch, Taste) is represented by a different fountain. At the end of this stairway, a Baroque church was built around 1725 by architect Manuel Pinto Vilalobos. The works on the first chapels, stairways and church proceeded through the 18th century. In an area behind the church (the Terreiro dos Evangelistas), three octagonal chapels were built in the 1760s with statues depicting episodes that occur after the Crucifixion, like the meeting of Jesus with Mary Magdalene. The exterior design of the beautiful chapels is attributed to renowned Braga architect André Soares. Around these chapels there are four Baroque fountains with statues of the Evangelists, also dating from the 1760s.
Façade of the church of Bom Jesus. Around 1781, archbishop Gaspar de Bragança decided to complete the ensemble by adding a third segment of stairways and a new church. The third stairway also follows a zigzag pattern and is dedicated to the Three Theological Virtues: Faith, Hope and Charity, each with its fountain. The old church was demolished and a new one was built following a Neoclassic design by architect Carlos Amarante. This new church, began in 1784, had its interior decorated in the beginning of the 19th century and was consecrated in 1834. The main altarpiece is dedicated to the Crucifixion.
In the 19th century, the area around the church and stairway was expropriated and turned into a park. In 1882, to facilitate the access to the Sanctuary, the water balance Bom Jesus funicular was built linking the city of Braga to the hill. This was the first funicular to be built in the Iberian Peninsula and is still in use.
After a pretty good day railfanning, I stumbled into CP #147 at Wolverton with a nice set of power in UP 5524-2389. A somewhat-frustrating day weather-wise, the clouds were rolling in pretty quickly by this time so this shot was looking pretty unlikely. Here, 147 lumbers towards Drumbo after lifting 61 loads at Wolverton in the very last minutes of sunlight with the power somewhat matching the colours in the trees.

I took this image of the old Hornibrook Bridge remains at Brighton portal during low tide. All composition rules have been broken in this image, my idea was to capture as many elements as possible and their equivalent reflections.
“Inception, is it possible?”
Recently, I took part in a building challenge organized by Nathaniel for SaltyLUG. Our goal was to guess from a piece of music the film it came from and to build a scene from it, this being Christopher Nolan’s 2010 “Inception” of course. The scene that stuck out to me the most was at the end which drew many theorists to believe that Cobb was still dreaming at the end of the film.
I started out by building the table and details on top such as the spinning top. That part was completed for the challenge, as we only had an hour to build our scene. After the challenge, I started work on the rest of the build as I really wanted to finish it with a nice base and a few other details. The sign was something I especially wanted to do and was also probably the most time consuming. It’s built using cheese slopes fit in and held in by friction. The rest of the details then came together shortly after.
I hope you enjoyed something different from me other than my usual Star Wars creations. I’m a big Nolan fan so I might end up going back and building other scenes from his films. Let me know below what yours is and which scene from what movie I should try next :)
Noel is studying to be an architect like his dad and big brother are. Caleb probably got all the good genes, but Noel is pretty hardworking on his own.
Some might call it such.
The odd quality of the light here presaged the atmospheric changes we've experienced as wildfires sweep the Pacific Northwest. Shot several days ago. This air was caused by California fires, several of which were/are large. The Golden Gate Bridge spans the horizon.
I hope your Friday goes better than it does for many on the Pacific Coast of America. The news from the wildfires is very disturbing to us all. Sending best hopes and wishes to those directly affected.
In the SF Bay Area we are impacted by quite bad air, in the range presenting a definite health danger. Meteorologists tell us we can look for some relief by Sunday night or Monday morning--when the jet stream is expected to bring a wave of northern air moving onto the North American land mass and "skirting" the northwestern United States.
A possible False Coral Snake in Panama. Can anyone please confirm the identification of this species?

Sometimes you're good and sometimes its just luck. I had a visitor while shooting this home in Jackson, Wy. I had to compromise the composition a little, but she didn't spook when I slowly opened the door and snuck back to my camera.

Cybele is an Anatolian mother goddess; she may have a possible forerunner in the earliest neolithic at Çatalhöyük.
She is Phrygia's only known goddess, and was probably its national deity.
Greek colonists in Asia Minor adopted and adapted her Phrygian cult and spread it to mainland Greece and to the more distant western Greek colonies around the 6th century BC.
The Fountain of Cybele (Spanish: Fuente de Cibeles, or simply, "La Cibeles") is a neoclassical fountain that lies on the centre of the Plaza de Cibeles, Madrid, Spain.
It has become one of the icons of the city.
Designed and commissioned by Ventura Rodríguez in 1780, the sculptural group—made of white marble from Montesclaros, is a work by Francisco Gutiérrez (who worked the goddess) and Roberto Michel (who worked the lions).
This statue of the goddess has a mural crown and rides a chariot pulled by two lions, representing Atalanta and Hippomenes.
It was moved to its current location and orientation in 1895.
The fountain is the site where Real Madrid's supporters and players gather to celebrate the team's trophies as well as partakers of the successes of the Spain national football team.
The goddess lost a hand in 1994, following a celebration of a victory of the Spanish national team.
The goddess lost again one of her hands on 21 September 2002.
The Fountain of Cybele has a replica, the namesake Fuente de Cibeles, located in Mexico City and inaugurated in 1980. (Source: Wikipedia)
FUENTE DE LA DIOSA CIBELES, MADRID, ESPAÑA, 2024
Cibeles es una diosa madre de Anatolia que puede tener un posible precursor en el neolítico más temprano en Çatalhöyük.
Es la única diosa conocida de Frigia y probablemente era su deidad nacional.
Los colonos griegos en Asia Menor adoptaron y adaptaron su culto frigio y lo extendieron a la Grecia continental y a las colonias griegas occidentales más distantes alrededor del siglo VI a.C.
La Fuente de Cibeles, o simplemente "La Cibeles", es una fuente neoclásica que se encuentra en el centro de la Plaza de Cibeles, Madrid, España
Se ha convertido en uno de los iconos de la ciudad.
Diseñado y encargado por Ventura Rodríguez en 1780, el grupo escultórico, elaborado en mármol blanco de Montesclaros, es obra de Francisco Gutiérrez (quien trabajó la diosa) y Roberto Michel (quien trabajó los leones).
La estatua de la diosa lleva una corona mural y monta un carro tirado por dos leones, representando a Atalanta e Hipómenes.
Fue trasladado a su ubicación y orientación actual en 1895.
La fuente es el lugar donde se reúnen los seguidores y jugadores del Real Madrid para celebrar los trofeos del equipo, así como los participantes de los éxitos de la selección española de fútbol.
La diosa perdió una mano en 1994, tras la celebración de una victoria de la selección española.
La diosa volvió a perder una de sus manos el 21 de septiembre de 2002.
La Fuente de Cibeles tiene una réplica, la homónima Fuente de Cibeles, ubicada en la Ciudad de México e inaugurada en 1980. (Fuente: Wikipedia)
Windswept sums it up I think - it was blowing a hoolie up on the headlands. But the late afternoon light was beautiful, especially with the heavy clouds as a backdrop.
Here's a link to my BLOG.

Un dia magnífic ha de comportar fotos diferents... vosaltres direu si bones o no.
Aquesta, la seva història, és ben senzilla. Els gran fotògraf i molt millors amics en Miquel (desdibuix) i, sobretot, en Joan (Beagle34) es van comprar una Panasonic LX3, per raons, que no venen el cas, m'havia venut la Samsung petita que tenia i la E-500, espero que de manera difinitiva... Havent vist el resultat que els donava aquesta nova juguina... no em va quedar cap remei , jejejejejeje, que comprar-me'n una... aquesta és la primera que hi pujo... què us en sembla?
Wright Brothers
1903-The First Flight
Since 1899, Wilbur and Orville Wright had been scientifically experimenting with the concepts of flight. They labored in relative obscurity, while the experiments of Samuel Langley of the Smithsonian were followed in the press and underwritten by the War Department. Yet Langley, as others before him, had failed to achieve powered flight. They relied on brute power to keep their theoretically stable machines aloft, sending along a hapless passenger and hoping for the best. It was the Wrights' genius and vision to see that humans would have to fly their machines, that the problems of flight could not be solved from the ground. In Wilbur's words, "It is possible to fly without motors, but not without knowledge and skill." With over a thousand glides from atop Big Kill Devil Hill, the Wrights made themselves the first true pilots. These flying skills were a crucial component of their invention. Before they ever attempted powered flight, the Wright brothers were masters of the air.
Their glider experiments on the Outer Banks of North Carolina, though frustrating at times, had led them down the path of discovery. Through those experiments, they had solved the problem of sustained lift and more importantly they could now control an aircraft while in flight. The brothers felt they were now ready to truly fly. But first, the Wrights had to power their aircraft. Gasoline engine technology had recently advanced to where its use in airplanes was feasible. Unable to find a suitable lightweight commercial engine, the brothers designed their own. It was cruder and less powerful than Samuel Langley's, but the Wrights understood that relatively little power was needed with efficient lifting surfaces and propellers. Such propellers were not available, however. Scant relevant data could be derived from marine propeller theory. Using their air tunnel data, they designed the first efficient airplane propeller, one of their most original and purely scientific achievements.
Returning to their camp at the Kill Devil Hills, they mounted the engine on the new 40-foot, 605-pound Flyer with double tails and elevators. The engine drove two pusher propellers with chains, one crossed to make the props rotate in opposite directions to counteract a twisting tendency in flight. A balky engine and broken propeller shaft slowed them, until they were finally ready on December 14th. In order to decide who would fly first, the brother tossed a coin. Wilbur won the coin toss, but lost his chance to be the first to fly when he oversteered with the elevator after leaving the launching rail. The flyer, climbed too steeply, stalled, and dove into the sand. The first flight would have to wait on repairs.
December 17, 1903
Three days later, they were ready for the second attempt. The 27-mph wind was harder than they would have liked, since their predicted cruising speed was only 30-35 mph. The headwind would slow their groundspeed to a crawl, but they proceeded anyway. With a sheet, they signaled the volunteers from the nearby lifesaving station that they were about to try again. Now it was Orville's turn.
Remembering Wilbur's experience, he positioned himself and tested the controls. The stick that moved the horizontal elevator controlled climb and descent. The cradle that he swung with his hips warped the wings and swung the vertical tails, which in combination turned the machine. A lever controlled the gas flow and airspeed recorder. The controls were simple and few, but Orville knew it would take all his finesse to handle the new and heavier aircraft.
The first flight
At 10:35, he released the restraining wire. The flyer moved down the rail as Wilbur steadied the wings. Just as Orville left the ground, John Daniels from the lifesaving station snapped the shutter on a preset camera, capturing the historic image of the airborne aircraft with Wilbur running alongside. Again, the flyer was unruly, pitching up and down as Orville overcompensated with the controls. But he kept it aloft until it hit the sand about 120 feet from the rail. Into the 27-mph wind, the groundspeed had been 6.8 mph, for a total airspeed of 34 mph. The brothers took turns flying three more times that day, getting a feel for the controls and increasing their distance with each flight. Wilbur's second flight - the fourth and last of the day – was an impressive 852 feet in 59 seconds.
This was the real thing, transcending the powered hops and glides others had achieved. The Wright machine had flown. But it would not fly again; after the last flight it was caught by a gust of wind, rolled over, and damaged beyond easy repair. With their flying season over, the Wrights sent their father a matter-of-fact telegram reporting the modest numbers behind their epochal achievement.

Still not 100% this jacket goes with the skirt and blouse, but willing to give it another shot :P.
While Flickr will always have the most images of each outfit, follow me on Instagram (/secretjess42) to see the latest pics!
Goodness me!!! My legs look so long in this photo! There is absolutely no digital manipulation here, and I also haven't used a mobile device (phone, tablet) which generally (due to their camera's short focal length) can create a fabulous statuesque perspective, just my usual DLSR. So what's the secret here? Simple!!! Just use a moderately low camera position and lean right back against the wall!😄
I had the privilege of covering the Dress rehearsal of 'Everything is Possible' currently on at York Theatre Royal. It tells the story of the Suffragette Movement in York with an open air prologue outside York Minster.
This is one of my faves from the set.

I think I know where JW Turner got his inspiration from for his style of Impressionism; looking at the back of gravestones.
Jay and I have a fondness for what we call, with our weird sense of black humour, stalking the dead, i.e., visiting graveyards and cemeteries. We find them fascinating and strangely soothing places to be in…and a target rich environment for photography. It's possible to spend hours in them, finding all manner of subject matter to capture.
The above gravestone is located at a small village chapel tucked away on the slopes of Bickerton Hills. Fortunately, for the lichens that adorn the gravestones, and for we as photographers, there's a large mature stand of pine trees that shields the backs of the gravestones from direct sunlight thereby giving the lichens a perfect environment to grow in. Most important of all, though, unlike a lot of gravestones which are made from granite/marble, those at this graveyard are made from the local sandstone, which means they have a rough, porous surface which holds moisture and gives the lichens the best surface to grow on.
It was while I quietly walked amongst the graves searching for subjects that I saw this gravestone from behind. It stopped me in my tracks. I was stunned by the colours, textures and sheer variety of lichens on display but it was the Impressionistic quality that made me catch my breath. I immediately sat down, put my camera to one side and just stared in astonishment. It was like looking at a Turner painting, done at his most wildly Impressionistic! My imagination went into overdrive, to my eyes I saw woodland ablaze with green flame and smoke…
Slowly coming to my senses I picked my camera up and took this shot. I then spent the next 30 minutes checking the backs of all the other gravestones and shooting what I could before the light died. My face hurt from the stupid grin that was plastered to my face. I resolved there and then to create a series of images of these wonderful, living natural art creations. I'm fortunate that there are many similar chapel graveyards in the area so I should have quite a choice of subject matter to choose from.
