On those days / when I sense less of internal structure / I realize to focus more / on fixed structures in the surroundings

Symmetry! A mirror image of the structure over the botanical gardens at the Valencia park of Arts and Sciences.
* Since reading Ian McEwan’s 2007 novel “ On Chesil Beach “ I have wanted to see this strange geological structure .
Chesil is not your typical British beach lined with stripy deckchairs and pastel painted beach-huts but wild, rugged and at the mercy of Mother Nature. John Fowles, captures the landscape of Chesil perfectly in his quote: ..... “It is above all an elemental place, made of sea, shingle and sky, its dominant sound always that of waves on moving stone”
The beach runs for a length of 18 miles from West Bay to the Isle of Portland and in places is up to 50 ft high and 660 ft wide. Behind the beach is the Fleet, a shallow tidal lagoon. The lagoon is home to the mute swan colony at Abbotsbury, the only place in the world where you can walk through a nesting colony of mute swans.
The pebbles on Chesil Beach are graded in size from potato-sized near Portland to pea-sized at Bridport and are made up of mainly flint and chert from the Cretaceous and Jurassic rocks, along with Bunter pebbles from Budleigh Salterton. It is believed that smugglers landing on the beach at night could could judge their position along the coast simply by picking up a handful of shingle.
Both the beach and the Swannery are UNESCO World Heritage Sites.
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.

Structure of the well known Olympic roof at the Olympic park in Munich, Germany. This is on the way to the former Olympic Village in the north of the park.

Europe, Portugal, Algarve, Sotaveno, Tavira, Rua de S Pedro, Industry building, Deconstruction, Worker, Blow torch (slightly cut from all sides)
A former modernist industry building where metal and aluminium frames for windows, facades and doors were constructed is being deconstructed. A worker is using a blowtorch to remove the metal support structure of the roof.
Two other captures of the demolition scene are here and here.
'Squeezing out sparks' is a pivotal album of Graham Parker and the Rumour. Together with the American and UK punk albums it turned out to be the way out of the stagnation and complacency of rock music of the 2nd half of the 70s (think symphonic and prog rock).
The soundtrack: Graham Parker-Mercury poisining, a track from the Squeezing out sparks album. A life version (35 years later) is here.
This is number 91 of the Gloriously dilapidated album and 93 of Tavira.
This structure is what is left of the largest silver stamp mill of it's time. Blair, Nevada was a boom town of 700 people from 1906 to 1915. Low grade ore caused the town to go bust. Inside, graffiti dating back to the 1940's covers the walls.

I’m getting a bit addicted to my 16mm close-ups. It is just amazing what kind shots I come home with.
The lovely structures on the beach find a mirror in the sky above.
I was scared, finally I turned around
he had very loud music. I think they turned off the lights in the street to stop people from entering.
Look at someone's shadow, to the right and top of the photo
