The Synthesis Man is a true visionary, a master of collaboration and connection. He understood that success is not achieved through individual efforts alone but rather through the ability to bring together diverse ideas, perspectives, and resources to create something more significant than the sum of its parts. The ability to harness the potential of others and work towards shared goals is a skill that sets the Synthesis Man apart from the instinctual superior.

When the ice withdrew after last ice age it deposited an enormous amount of stones along the Stavern (just outside Larvik, Norway) coast. A sunset soon a year ago. Foreground is a blend of several exposures. Also a separate exposure for the sky.
Já me feri no espinho daquela flor
Já lhe dei beijos que marcaram nosso amor
Queria ser Romeu e Julieta no passado
Um sonho épico que eleva o ser amado
Flores, música de Ivete Sangalo, composta por Carlinhos, Roberto Moura, Gutemberg e Tica Mahatma
----------------------------------
I have hurt in the thorn that flower
We already gave him kisses that marked our love
I wanted to be Romeo and Juliet in the past
A dream that brings the epic be loved

Brief synthesis
Situated in North Yorkshire, the 18th century designed landscape of Studley Royal water garden and pleasure grounds, including the ruins of Fountains Abbey, is one harmonious whole of buildings, gardens and landscapes. This landscape of exceptional merit and beauty represents over 800 years of human ambition, design and achievement.
Studley Royal Park is one of the few great 18th century gardens to survive substantially in its original form, and is one of the most spectacular water gardens in England. The landscape garden is an outstanding example of the development of the ‘English’ garden style throughout the 18th century, which influenced the rest of Europe. With the integration of the River Skell into the water gardens and the use of ‘borrowed’ vistas from the surrounding countryside, the design and layout of the gardens is determined by the form of the natural landscape, rather than being imposed upon it. The garden contains canals, ponds, cascades, lawns and hedges, with elegant garden buildings, gateways and statues. The Aislabies’ vision survives substantially in its original form, most famously in the spectacular view of the ruins of Fountains Abbey itself.
Fountains Abbey ruins is not only a key eye catcher in the garden scheme, but is of outstanding importance in its own right, being one of the few Cistercian houses to survive from the 12th century and providing an unrivalled picture of a great religious house in all its parts.
The remainder of the estate is no less significant. At the west end of the estate is the transitional Elizabethan/Jacobean Fountains Hall, partially built from reclaimed abbey stone. With its distinctive Elizabethan façade enhanced by a formal garden with shaped hedges, it is an outstanding example of its period.
Located in the extensive deer park is St Mary’s Church, a masterpiece of High Victorian Gothic architecture, designed by William Burges in 1871 and considered to be one of his finest works.
Criterion (i): Studley Royal Park including the ruins of Fountains Abbey owes its originality and striking beauty to the fact that a humanised landscape was created around the largest medieval ruins in the United Kingdom. The use of these features, combined with the planning of the water garden itself, is a true masterpiece of human creative genius.
Criterion (iv): Combining the remains of the richest abbey in England, the Jacobean Fountains Hall, and Burges’s miniature neo-Gothic masterpiece of St Mary’s, with the water gardens and deer park into one harmonious whole, Studley Royal Park including the ruins of Fountains Abbey illustrates the power of medieval monasticism and the taste and wealth of the European upper classes in the 18th century.
We were scrambling over rebar, sand slopes and rotten concrete. Meandering through pools of black oil. Sending little avalanches of rocks as we went down again, running into another dead end. Somewhere along the way, a space opened up, where the chaos of nature collided with the violent stillness of concrete, creating something stronger than both of these forces on their own. I came to love these spaces more than anything else.

The Arch of Constantine, about 25 meters high, was erected in 315m close to the Coliseum, to celebrate Constantine's victory over Maxentius in the 312 battle of Ponte Milvio. The arch was made by partly reusing sculptures and architectural elements taken from more ancient monuments, belonging to the ages of Trajan, Hadrian and Marcus Aurelius. It is probably to be considered as the first example of that systematic reuse of waste material that in Rome will last throughout the Middle Ages and at the same time represents a precious synthesis of over two centuries of Roman official art. The arch has three arches, the central one, wider, has a rich relief decoration on all sides. Above the minor arches the exploits of Constantine in the campaign against Maxentius are narrated. Higher up, in the tondoes of the Hadrianic age, hunting and sacrifice scenes are represented. In the attic there are eight statues of Dacians, from the Forum of Trajan, which flank the long inscription and large panels from the period of Marcus Aurelius with episodes of the Germanic war.
Click on the shot to see it over black background !!!
In the previous exhibited shot we've talked about light and its significant contribution to an excellent shot ... In this one, let's talk about SYNTHESIS !!!!!
The above seen shot was taken out of one of my cameras but not when I was holding it ... In order to be able to move more freely with my NIKON D90, I gave my compact camera to my daughter Smaragda, letting her loose to freely express herself any way she felt like ... Confident that interesting shots though can only come out of my rather "experienced" photographic activities, I didn't even cast a glance to the shots that came out of the Panasonic DMC - ZX1 ...
Yesterday night I saw the above seen shot ... I truly tell you my friends that not even one of the captures that came out of my DSLR can reach the "intelligence" of the above seen shot !!! It actually encompasses five levels of interesting to look at photographic elements that they succeed one another in an elegant and rather amazing way ... In the far background, the total loss of the horizon's horizontal character (it is called DUTCH TILT as my good Flickr friend ZGRIAL www.flickr.com/photos/zgrial/ pointed out to me) ascribes an exceptionally artistic aura to the whole synthesis, just because it actually cleverly breaks another one of our "traditional photographic rules " ... An extraordinary SYNTHETIC EFFORT without a shadow of a doubt !!!!
The truth is that my daughter, even though she is only thirteen years old, is exceptionally gifted in putting up interesting scenes ... She actually knows how to show MORE using LESS ... and this is a true gift !!!
I truly hope that she will take up photography as a hobby or "whatever" throughout her adult life ...
EXIF: Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZX1, ISO 200, f 3,3, focal length 4,5 mm, auto white balance, HDR made by only one original shot with shutter speed 1/200 s, accurately conveying the scene's exact lighting conditions to the viewer, flash did not fire ...

"The Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) is an aperture synthesis interferometer built on the site of the former World War II Nazi detention and transit camp Westerbork, north of the village of Westerbork, Midden-Drenthe, in the northeastern Netherlands.
The WRST comprises fourteen 25-metre radio telescopes deployed in a linear array arranged on a 2.7 kilometres (1.7 mi) East-West line, of which 10 are in a fixed equidistant position, 2 are nearby on a 300 m rail track, and 2 are located a kilometer eastwards on another 200 m rail track. It has a similar arrangement to other radio telescopes such as the One-Mile Telescope, Australia Telescope Compact Array and the Ryle Telescope. Its Equatorial mount is what sets it apart from most other radio telescopes, most of which have an Altazimuth mount. This makes it specifically useful for specific types of science, like polarized emission research as the detectors maintain a constant orientation on the sky during an observation. Ten of the telescopes are on fixed mountings while the remaining two dishes are movable along two rail tracks. The telescope was completed in 1970 and underwent a major upgrade between 1995 – 2000."

The untold
Through a synthesis of our own art and theology, we crafted a quasi-religious and mystical movement, weaving together strands of faith, sacred beliefs, science, and ancient wisdom. This new tradition took the intangible (our dreams, thoughts, and aspirations)and gave them a palpable reality. It was a space where the sacred and the scientific coexisted, where rituals were born from the interplay of spiritual conviction and empirical understanding. Yet this journey into the extraordinary is something that cannot be explained with words; it must be experienced to be understood. Those who walk this path find themselves in a world where the boundaries between the mystical and the empirical dissolve, where symbols hold the key to unlocking hidden truths. It is a journey that invites you to explore the vast realms of consciousness and to believe in the possibilities that lie beyond conventional understanding. Here, the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary, and the unimaginable becomes a lived reality.

Ksar Ait Ben Haddou is a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Morocco between Ouarzazate and Marrakesh.
From UNESCO:
"Brief synthesis
Located in the foothills on the southern slopes of the High Atlas in the Province of Ouarzazate, the site of Ait-Ben-Haddou is the most famous ksar in the Ounila Valley. The Ksar of Aït-Ben-Haddou is a striking example of southern Moroccan architecture. The ksar is a mainly collective grouping of dwellings. Inside the defensive walls which are reinforced by angle towers and pierced with a baffle gate, houses crowd together - some modest, others resembling small urban castles with their high angle towers and upper sections decorated with motifs in clay brick - but there are also buildings and community areas. It is an extraordinary ensemble of buildings offering a complete panorama of pre-Saharan earthen construction techniques. The oldest constructions do not appear to be earlier than the 17th century, although their structure and technique were propagated from a very early period in the valleys of southern Morocco. The site was also one of the many trading posts on the commercial route linking ancient Sudan to Marrakesh by the Dra Valley and the Tizi-n'Telouet Pass. Architecturally, the living quarters form a compact grouping, closed and suspended. The community areas of the ksar include a mosque, a public square, grain threshing areas outside the ramparts, a fortification and a loft at the top of the village, an caravanserai, two cemeteries (Muslim and Jewish) and the Sanctuary of the Saint Sidi Ali or Amer. The Ksar of Ait- Ben-Haddou is a perfect synthesis of earthen architecture of the pre-Saharan regions of Morocco.
Criterion (iv): The Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou is an eminent example of a ksar in southern Morocco illustrating the main types of earthen constructions that may be observed dating from the 17th century in the valleys of Dra, Todgha, Dadès and Souss.
Criterion (v): The Ksar of Ait-Ben-Haddou illustrates the traditional earthen habitat, representing the culture of southern Morocco, which has become vulnerable as a result of irreversible socio-economic and cultural changes"
