For a definitely better view Large On Black

Macro abstract art

Also a painting on a large concrete block, found at the Honigcomplex in my hometown Nijmegen.

For some reason there is in hole in these blocks, perhaps an easier way to transport them? But anyway, this artist (Dragon?) used it to create a third eye.

Happy Wall Wednesday ;-))

I took this shot circa 1974 with the Pentax K1000 film camera. This photo was scanned from a print. These third graders are hard at work creating three dimensional clay maps of continents and ocean floors as part of a curriculum I helped create and develop.

This is my first attempt at Apple Pencil.

Earlier I posted shots of attempts to reach the top of Barden in Senja. The first attempt failed when rain and hail, and bad visibility forced me to go back (www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/54821190337/in/datepo...), and the second attempt stranded because clouds were packing and the sun was obscured, with the end results probably showing not the pictures that I wanted to have (www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/54885638309/in/datepo...).

 

4 days later they predicted good weather! In the early morning there would be clouds and mist, but from ca. 11.30 the sky would open up, and around 1300 it would completely open up!

 

So up I went again over that slippery and very muddy path, now being accustomed to the idea of getting wet shoes, socks and feet.

 

Alas! Although from this point I still climbed some 100 meters (and got again a little bit further up the Barden track), I ended up in the mist, and no panorama vista to be seen. But I was still optimistic and sat down, waiting for the glorious moment of the first stretch of blue sky appearing.

 

1,5 hours later it didn't happen, and there were no signs of it to happen, so there I went again, down that muddy and slippery path. And yes, my feet were still very wet. And long after I was down (around 1830), the miracle finally happened, the sky opening up.

 

Despite the somewhat disappointing result, I made some nice shots, this is one of them.

This is Skaga stave church. It is the third stave church at this place - and it dates to 2001.

 

The original, dated to the 12th century, was built close to an old sacred well from (possibly) pagan times. There are a lot of legends surrounding this little church, more than perhaps trustworthy history, including how the founder of the church (a woman named Skaga) was saved as an infant by a dog when her father wanted her dead and placed her in the woods, and that the church fell out of use after the Black Death and the area was abandoned - that is quite possible, but the legend continues that the church was re-discovered 'several hundred years later'. I wonder how much you would find of a abandoned wooden building several centuries later... Be that as it may, the church stood there until 1826 when it was pulled down. A copy of the medieval church was built in 1957–58 and inaugurated in 1960. But the church burnt down in 2000. Just a year later a third incarnation of the church, the one still present, was opened to the public. (Well, it is open if you come at the right time - when we passed by the place was closed.)

This bus has been retired twice. It used to belong to a school district and later was purchased by a church in Ohio. It now sits on a farm in Indiana awaiting its third adventure. It looks as if most of the seats have been removed, so I'm guessing it will either be used for hauling farm products or awaiting conversion into a "skoolie" (aka school bus motorhome).

A shot of the shoreline from atop some tall rocks on the beach. You can see some of the not so humble homes along the water in the distance. Known as "Third Beach" in Newport Rhode island.

This picture brings back memories but not of a good type. Back in the seventies through the eighties before I could afford a car I use to work in some bad parts of the city and often going home at late hours sometime waiting for a late night train that comes only once a hour in deserted quite stations like this being on a constant guard for, rowdy drunks gang bangers and crazies back when there were no electronic signs to tell you when the next train was coming and then you would the hear the raucous screams of a group belligerent trouble makers entering the station and having to decide what to do next. Not fun times.

The third shot of one of the most amazing buildings I have ever seen, the first two shots were these www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/50099346213/in/datepo..., www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/51169723336/in/datepo....

 

It really is difficult to catch the beauty of this miracle.

  

20 September 2019 I came back from my journey over a part of the Silk Road to and through Central Asia. 4 months of traveling through 14 countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran) before I flew home from Teheran. An impressive journey in countries that are extremely beautiful, with lovely and welcoming people and diverse cultures and history.

 

Intense traveling with more than 20000 kilometers in our mobile home on sometimes roads that hardly could be called that way. We saw many villages and cities (some wonderful, others very ugly), countries that are transforming from the old Soviet era into something more related to older cultures and the way people live, often funded by oil readily available around the Caspian sea. We saw the amazing mountains south of the Black Sea, the wonderful Caucasus, and the high mountains in the far east close to China with peaks over 7000 meter, and not to forget the (Bulgarian) Alps!

 

We crossed the great steppe of Kazakhstan. a drive of at least 5000 km, the remnants of lake Aral, once one of the biggest lakes of the world, saw a rocket launch from Baikonur (this little part is Russian owned), we crossed many high mountains passes, and drove the breathtaking canyon that comes from the Pamir, beginning at ca 4500 meter, and going down for ca. 400km to an altitude of 1300 meter, driving for 100's of kilometers along the Afghan border.

 

And then the numerous lakes with all sorts of different colors from deep cobalt blue to turquoise, and one rare spectacle in Turkmenistan where a gas crater is burning already for more than 40 years. And finally and certainly not the least to mention an enormous amount of wonderful, hospitable and welcoming people. The woman often dressed in wonderful dresses, and bringing a lot of color in the streets of almost of all countries we visited.

One of those moments when you stop thinking about whether you are in the best place and just shoot......one not to be forgotten!.......and one light range far beyond that of a camera.
