Legendär
Das "Marina Bay Sands" ist ein Meisterwerk der Baukunst, ein architektonisches Statement und ein ästhetischer Triumph und hat die Messlatte für Gebäude in Singapur höher gelegt.
Seit 2010 dominiert die atemberaubende Silhouette die komplette Bayfront und prägt die Skyline von Singapur.
Das Gebäude wurde von dem berühmten Architekten Moshe Safdie konzipiert. Mit seinen drei 194 Meter hoch aufragenden Türmen, die durch den "SkyPark" verbunden sind, zieht es Besucher in seinen Bann.
Legendary
The “Marina Bay Sands” is a masterpiece of architecture, an architectural statement and an aesthetic triumph and has raised the bar for buildings in Singapore.
Since 2010, its breathtaking silhouette has dominated the entire bayfront and shaped the Singapore skyline.
The building was designed by the famous architect Moshe Safdie. With its three 194-meter-high towers, which are connected by the “SkyPark”, it casts a spell over visitors.
Whatever ones opinion about "Religion" as expressed by the
Catholic Church in Europe, there most certainly was no
limit on Ornamentation as an expression of Holiness.
Modernism?, certainly not.
Impressively ornate and beautiful to view- that's for sure.
Cathedral Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Terco e Caridade built 1755 -1759, Rua de Cimo de Vila 36 C Porto Portugal.
Facing West, on a very narrow, curiously "sketchy-looking" inclined street not far from The Historic Sao Bento Train Station in PORTO, this church
now is used to feed the homeless and poor.
Many of the small shops that line Rua de Cimo de Vila,
are an eclectic mix of
Old-School Leather-Craftsman,
Indian Barber-Shops,
"Indian" (Bangladeshi/Pakistani/Nepalese/ Indian )
Halal Butches and Grocers,
and several Restaurants frequented by
mostly Indian men, serving tasty Samosa, Chai
and other dishes that you'll see being eaten
"by hand" (literally), a dining technique that
many Westerners find......off-putting
yet in India and Africa,and Indonesia- how they roll.
What could be more fashionable than a single white tail feather ? It's a bold statement by any means, and I'm sure he's the talk of the bird world.
The white tail feather is actually Leucism which is caused by uneven distribution of melanin in the feathers.
The Death of Marat by He Xiangyu. This remarkably realistic sculpture is a depiction of fellow Chinese artist Ai Weiwei (who is still very much among the living).
at Balvaird Castle.
I always think the trees which surround Balvaird Castle look as though they are sentinels protecting it.
And often they outshine it!
One wonders what went through the mind of the good citizens of Arundel (West Sussex) when they planned their new Town Hall. Most of the town centre consists of substantial dwellings in the Regency, Georgian and Victorian styles with a few timber-framed buildings in between. There is also, of course, a massive castle dating back to Norman times. But the new Town Hall of around 1900 is really something else - a kind of hybrid of the Porta Nigra in Trier and the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence. If this is the architectural expression of self-confidence, it is a rather noisy one.
Thanks for all your comments and faves, much appreciated.

Artists Statement:
This painting captures a fleeting moment in early winter, where the landscape is transformed by the low, golden light that bathes the scene. The curving river bank, gently blanketed in snow, is outlined on the one side by trees whose tops glow with the warm hues of the rising sun. Painted in a high-key fashion, the work employs soft, coarse horizontal strokes for the water and a smoothness to evoke the feel of the flat white snowy fields, while the water—rich in greys, reds, and pale purples—reflects the cold light and the dark reflections of the trees, creating an interplay of warmth and chill.
The overall composition is designed to feel ephemeral, as the edges of the scene gradually fade into the surrounding whiteness of the snow, giving the viewer a sense of both the vastness and quiet intimacy of winter. The trees, though delicate in their soft brushwork, stand resilient against the cold, their glowing tops providing a gentle contrast to the more muted colours of the water and the snow.
In this piece, I sought to explore the subtle beauty of winter’s transitional moments, where the harshness of the season meets the fragile warmth of light. The interplay of colour and light, combined with the fading edges, speaks to the transient nature of time—how moments of clarity are often fleeting, but nonetheless beautiful in their impermanence.
I am revisiting a response I gave regarding Ai usage classified as "Art".
>It is a playground for the craft –Anyone can hit “generate,” but crafting the right prompt is an art in itself.
Same muscles, new tools. Painters swap brushes; I swap models, seeds, and tweaks.
More eyeballs, more inspiration. AI lets my vision travel further and spark new ideas.
Reclaiming my story. I use these tools to honor my culture and ancestors. ((*Especially since they want to erase the Tuskegee Airman and Harriet Tubman from the books and galleries!!!)
