Across from Depot Park on Park Avenue, and sitting next door to the Beebe House shown previously, is the Coatsworth House. Constructed in 1894, this house is a gabled ell design, a variation of the gablefront house. The gabled ell incorporates a side gable, which was typically added-on to the house. The add-on was usually in order to obtain additional space, light and cross-ventilation. The gablefront house cropped up in styles ranging from Greek Revival, to Gothic Revival, to Queen Anne, to a simple vernacular style home.
The Coatsworth House is a contributing structure in the Galena Historic District which encompasses 85 percent of the City of Galena and includes more than 800 properties. The Galena Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1969, with modifications in 2013.
Galena is the seat of Jo Daviess County in the northwest corner of Illinois. This is the unglaciated area of northwestern Illinois. The rolling hills, history and abundant 19th century architecture draws visitors from throughout the country. The estimated population of Galena in 2019 was 3,158.
The palafitic pier of Carrasqueira is a masterpiece of popular architecture. Erected in the 50s and 60s, it is unique in Europe and is built on irregularly fragile wooden posts, apparently fragile, that serve as a dock for fishing boats. This structure allows fishermen access to boats, even during low tide. Carrasqueira, Setúbal - Portugal.
The ETFE façades are shaped in a “sail” like form and are installed on three sides of the building; East, South, and West. A total of 399 sails cover an area of 8,125 square meters, supported by 180 tons of structural aluminum framing and 57 carbon steel “headmounts”.
Back to when I got to Worthing pier when low tide coincided with the sunset.
Here I made my way out to nearly the end of the pier to capture the only bit of cloud that we had seen that day but the colours of the sky were lovely.
The pier added my foreground interest and the light on the foreground rocks was amazing too.
I have been out shooting some images in the mist this morning including shooting my fave tree near Upper Beeding which will be a monthly project.
Second day in Rotterdam, walking around and waiting for the blue hour. I just loved those houses on the other side of the canal, all aligned.

La structure de 80 mètres de long sur 16 mètres de haut, est composée de quelque 35.000 planches en bois de toutes les couleurs.
L'oeuvre monumentale éphémère d'Arne Quinze " The Passenger", érigée tout près de la Grand-Place de Mons en ouverture du projet culturel "Mons 2015, Capitale européenne de la Culture" a été entièrement démontée à partir du 12 avril 2021.
"Pour l'artiste, le vide créé par l'oeuvre une fois enlevée fait partie intégrante de sa démarche artistique", a indiqué la Fondation Mons 2025. "Le vide est comme un point de départ d'une nouvelle façon de penser à la manière de rendre nos espaces publics plus diversifiés". Comme annoncé lors de sa conception, les composants de "The Passenger" seront recyclés: le bois utilisé dans la structure sera transformé en pâte à papier et les vis seront récupérées.
