La Rochelle est une ville côtière du sud-ouest de la France et la préfecture du département de la Charente-Maritime. Elle est un centre de pêche et de commerce depuis le XIIe siècle, une tradition maritime qui se reflète dans son Vieux Port et son immense port de plaisance ultramoderne : Les Minimes. La vieille ville abrite des maisons médiévales à colombages et une architecture Renaissance, avec ses rues à arcades datant du XVIIe siècle.

Santa Maria del Fiore, la cui costruzione fu progettata da Arnolfo di Cambio, è la terza chiesa del mondo (dopo San Pietro a Roma, San Paolo a Londra) e la più grande in Europa al momento della sua ultimazione nel '400: è lunga 153 metri, larga 90 alla crociera ed alta 90 metri dal pavimento all'apertura della lanterna. Essa, terza e ultima cattedrale fiorentina, fu intitolata nel 1412 a Santa Maria del Fiore con chiara allusione al giglio, simbolo della città.
Sorse sopra la seconda cattedrale, che la Firenze paleocristiana aveva dedicato a Santa Reparata.
Le notevoli diversità di stile rivelate nelle sue parti sono la testimonianza del variare del gusto nel lungo periodo trascorso fra la sua fondazione ed il completamento.
La prima pietra della facciata venne posta l'8 settembre 1296, su progetto di Arnolfo di Cambio. Egli lavorò per il Duomo dal 1296 al 1302. Ideò una basilica dagli spazi classici, con tre ampie navate che confluivano nel vasto coro dove è posto l'altare maggiore, a sua volta circondato dalle tribune su cui poi si innesterà la Cupola.
Il progetto di Arnolfo era notevolmente diverso dalla struttura attuale della chiesa, come è possibile notare dall'esterno. Sui fianchi dell'edificio, infatti, a nord e a sud, notiamo che le prime quattro finestre sono più basse, più strette e più ravvicinate di quelle verso est, le quali corrispondono, invece, all'ampliamento operato da Francesco Talenti, capomastro a partire dalla metà del '300.
Arnolfo arriva a finire due campate e metà della nuova facciata.
La facciata fu smantellata nel 1587 quando il Granduca Francesco I de' Medici decise di costruirne una nuova modena e le statue superstiti che la decoravano sono oggi esposte nel Museo dell'Opera del Duomo.
Alla morte d'Arnolfo, avvenuta intorno al 1310, i lavori subirono un rallentamento, per riprendere certamente nel 1331 quando i magistrati dell'Arte della Lana si assunsero la cura della costruzione. Nel 1334 fu nominato capomastro dell'Opera Giotto che si occupò prevalentemente della costruzione del campanile e morì tre anni dopo. A Giotto subentrò Andrea Pisano fino al 1348, anno della terribile peste che decimò la popolazione cittadina da 90.000 a 45.000 abitanti.
I lavori proseguirono fra interruzioni e riprese fino a quando, in seguito al concorso bandito nel 1367, fu accettato il modello definitivo della chiesa proposto da quattro architetti e quattro pittori, tra i quali Andrea di Bonaiuto, Benci e Andrea di Cione, Taddeo Gaddi e Neri di Fioravante.
Dal 1349 al '59 la direzione tocca a Francesco Talenti, che completa il Campanile e prepara un nuovo progetto coadiuvato (dal 1360 al '69) da Giovanni di Lapo Ghini. Nel 1378 fu ultimata la volta della navata centrale, e nel 1380 furono terminate le navate minori. Tra il 1380 ed il 1421 furono costruite le tribune e forse anche il tamburo della Cupola.
This night photograph was taken in Shenzhen Talent Park during our holidays in China in early June.
The unique Pi Bridge for pedestrains was colourfully illuminated, with captivating reflections in the foreground. The tall tower in the shape of “spring bamboo shoot” and adjacent buildings could be seen in the background.
Best wishes for a wonderful weekend!

Lena Stahl: "My Son" - Behind the Scenes of a Road Movie
German director Lena Stahl is a multi-talent: she not only wrote the screenplay and directed her feature film "Mein Sohn", but she also documented the production with a Leica M10. Leica World is presenting a good 40 of these shots from 31 March to 14 June in the Leica Galerie Wetzlar.
During the filming of 2019, which took place in close proximity to the first Corona wave, the director used a Leica M10 to document moments of the film directly in black and white. And atmospherically dense images were also taken during the breaks in shooting, which the Leica Galerie Wetzlar is now showing in an impressive selection.
At the centre of the film drama, which has won many awards in the meantime, is a mother-son relationship that has to reinvent itself after the serious accident of the almost adult, rather daredevil son. A Swiss rehab clinic is supposed to help the son and during a long road trip Marlene and Jason (congenially played by Anke Engelke and Jonas Dassler) get to know each other all over again. Closeness and distance, care and desire for freedom collide, leading to disappointed expectations, but also to new insights on both sides. Other roles are played by Hannah Herzsprung, Karsten Antonio Mielke and Max Hopp.

Lena Stahl: "Mein Sohn" - Hinter den Kulissen eines Roadmovie
Die deutsche Regisseurin Lena Stahl ist ein Multitalent: Für ihren Kinofilm „Mein Sohn“ hat sie nicht nur das Drehbuch geschrieben und Regie geführt, sondern sie dokumentierte die Produktion auch mit einer Leica M10. Gut 40 dieser Aufnahmen präsentiert Leica World vom 31. März bis zum 14. Juni in der Leica Galerie Wetzlar.
Während der Dreharbeiten 2019, die noch kurz vor der ersten Corona-Welle in intensiver Nähe ablaufen konnten, nutzte die Regisseurin eine Leica M10, um Momente des Films unmittelbar in Schwarzweiß zu dokumentieren. Und auch während der Drehpausen entstanden atmosphärisch dichte Bilder, die nun die Leica Galerie Wetzlar in einer eindrucksvollen Auswahl zeigt.
Im Mittelpunkt des mittlerweile vielfach ausgezeichneten Filmdramas steht eine Mutter-Sohn-Beziehung, die sich nach dem schweren Unfall des fast erwachsenen, eher draufgängerischen Sohnes neu erfinden muss. Eine Schweizer Reha-Klinik soll dem Sohn helfen und während eines langen Roadtrips lernen sich Marlene und Jason (kongenial gespielt von Anke Engelke und Jonas Dassler) noch einmal ganz neu kennen. Nähe und Distanz, Fürsorge und Freiheitswunsch prallen aufeinander, führen zu enttäuschten Erwartungen, aber auf beiden Seiten auch zu neuer Erkenntnis. In weiteren Rollen sind u.a. Hannah Herzsprung, Karsten Antonio Mielke und Max Hopp zu sehen.

From Wikipedia:
Elsie Stephen Meighen - born January 22, 1872, Perth, Ontario - and Robert Wilson Reford - born in 1867, Montreal - got married on June 12, 1894.
Elsie Reford was a pioneer of Canadian horticulture, creating one of the largest private gardens in Canada on her estate, Estevan Lodge in eastern Québec. Located in Grand-Métis on the south shore of the St. Lawrence River, her gardens have been open to the public since 1962 and operate under the name Les Jardins de Métis and Reford Gardens.
Born January 22, 1872 at Perth, Ontario, Elsie Reford was the eldest of three children born to Robert Meighen and Elsie Stephen. Coming from modest backgrounds themselves, Elsie’s parents ensured that their children received a good education. After being educated in Montreal, she was sent to finishing school in Dresden and Paris, returning to Montreal fluent in both German and French, and ready to take her place in society.
She married Robert Wilson Reford on June 12, 1894. She gave birth to two sons, Bruce in 1895 and Eric in 1900. Robert and Elsie Reford were, by many accounts, an ideal couple. In 1902, they built a house on Drummond Street in Montreal. They both loved the outdoors and they spend several weeks a year in a log cabin they built at Lac Caribou, south of Rimouski. In the autumn they hunted for caribou, deer, and ducks. They returned in winter to ski and snowshoe. Elsie Reford also liked to ride. She had learned as a girl and spent many hours riding on the slopes of Mount Royal. And of course, there was salmon-fishing – a sport at which she excelled.
In her day, she was known for her civic, social, and political activism. She was engaged in philanthropic activities, particularly for the Montreal Maternity Hospital and she was also the moving force behind the creation of the Women’s Canadian Club of Montreal, the first women club in Canada. She believed it important that the women become involved in debates over the great issues of the day, « something beyond the local gossip of the hour ». Her acquaintance with Lord Grey, the Governor-General of Canada from 1904 to 1911, led to her involvement in organizing, in 1908, Québec City’s tercentennial celebrations. The event was one of many to which she devoted herself in building bridges with French-Canadian community.
During the First World War, she joined her two sons in England and did volunteer work at the War Office, translating documents from German into English. After the war, she was active in the Victorian Order of Nurses, the Montreal Council of Social Agencies, and the National Association of Conservative Women.
In 1925 at the age of 53 years, Elsie Reford was operated for appendicitis and during her convalescence, her doctor counselled against fishing, fearing that she did not have the strength to return to the river.”Why not take up gardening?” he said, thinking this a more suitable pastime for a convalescent woman of a certain age. That is why she began laying out the gardens and supervising their construction. The gardens would take ten years to build, and would extend over more than twenty acres.
Elsie Reford had to overcome many difficulties in bringing her garden to life. First among them were the allergies that sometimes left her bedridden for days on end. The second obstacle was the property itself. Estevan was first and foremost a fishing lodge. The site was chosen because of its proximity to a salmon river and its dramatic views – not for the quality of the soil.
To counter-act nature’s deficiencies, she created soil for each of the plants she had selected, bringing peat and sand from nearby farms. This exchange was fortuitous to the local farmers, suffering through the Great Depression. Then, as now, the gardens provided much-needed work to an area with high unemployment. Elsie Reford’s genius as a gardener was born of the knowledge she developed of the needs of plants. Over the course of her long life, she became an expert plantsman. By the end of her life, Elsie Reford was able to counsel other gardeners, writing in the journals of the Royal Horticultural Society and the North American Lily Society. Elsie Reford was not a landscape architect and had no training of any kind as a garden designer. While she collected and appreciated art, she claimed no talents as an artist.
Elsie Stephen Reford died at her Drummond Street home on November 8, 1967 in her ninety-sixth year.
In 1995, the Reford Gardens ("Jardins de Métis") in Grand-Métis were designated a National Historic Site of Canada, as being an excellent Canadian example of the English-inspired garden.(Wikipedia)
LES JARDINS DE MÉTIS
Créés par Elsie Reford de 1926 à 1958, ces jardins témoignent de façon remarquable de l’art paysager à l’anglaise. Disposés dans un cadre naturel, un ensemble de jardins exhibent fleurs vivaces, arbres et arbustes. Le jardin des pommetiers, les rocailles et l’Allée royale évoquent l’œuvre de cette dame passionnée d’horticulture. Agrémenté d’un ruisseau et de sentiers sinueux, ce site jouit d’un microclimat favorable à la croissance d’espèces uniques au Canada. Les pavots bleus et les lis, privilégiés par Mme Reford, y fleurissent toujours et contribuent , avec d’autres plantes exotiques et indigènes, à l’harmonie de ces lieux.
Created by Elsie Reford between 1926 and 1958, these gardens are an inspired example of the English art of the garden. Woven into a natural setting, a series of gardens display perennials, trees and shrubs. A crab-apple orchard, a rock garden, and the Long Walk are also the legacy of this dedicated horticulturist. A microclimate favours the growth of species found nowhere else in Canada, while the stream and winding paths add to the charm. Elsie Reford’s beloved blue poppies and lilies still bloom and contribute, with other exotic and indigenous plants, to the harmony of the site.
