8:02 AM, on a Monday: Antwerp-Central railway station platform 6. Just one passenger.

 

The vast (185 metres long, 66 metres wide and 44 metres high) curved roof iron and glass trainshed is designed by Clement van Bogaert and constructed between 1895 and 1899. The station is widely regarded as the finest example of railway architecture in Belgium. It is often referred to as a "Railway Cathedral".

Qualcosa c'è

che ti fa paura

e rende incerto il tuo volo.

Sarà l'idea

che il tempo si consuma

e l'improvviso sei solo,

come un attore hai scelto il ruolo

di chi è sicuro di se,

ma sai benissimo che la tua arte

è nella parte fragile di te.

 

Cerca angoli di cielo

fantastiche visioni,

per dare nuova luce ai tuoi occhi

lasciando entrare tutte le emozioni

senza far finta che l'amore non ti tocchi.

Prendi tutti i suoni

dal frastuono di ogni giorno

cerca tra la gente le parole

segui la tua vita

non lasciarla andare

ora è il momento

 

Perchè non c'è

nessuna differenza

se vinci o se perdi,

quello che conta

che ha più importanza

essere quello che sei.

 

Cerca angoli di cielo

fantastiche visioni,

per dare nuova luce ai tuoi occhi;

lasciando entrare tutte le emozioni

senza far finta che il dolore non ti tocchi.

Prendi tutti i suoni

dal frastuono di ogni giorno

cerca tra la gente le parole

ama la tua vita

non lasciarla andare

ora è il momento

 

Prendi tutti i suoni

dal frastuono di ogni giorno

cerca in ogni notte un po' di sole

ama la tua vita

non lasciarla andare

ora è il momento

non aspettare

“La tropilla entablada es una antigua habilidad criolla ingeniada por el gaucho frente al desamparo del desierto, al que debía cruzar a caballo durante días y días. Tener reunida la tropilla y cambiar caballo sin contar con un corral -o sustituto- era una de las dificultades de esa vida errabunda. Aun cuando el desierto llegó a poblarse, tener a mano una tropilla, agarrar caballo y ensillar en pleno campo es, hasta hoy, un trastorno insoluble. De aquí que la tropilla agrupada por el instinto animal y la hábil paciencia del resero, especialmente, continúe siendo un recurso indispensable...”

As much as I love shooting with my Pentax K10D it isn't practical to carry to/from work everyday given that its a full-sized semi-pro dSLR camera. So bought a tiny Canon IXY 910IS digital camera as my cameraphone, while handy, doesn't quite cut it as a serious camera for shots around Tokyo.

 

Non-HDR 1xp shot taken from the 36th floor of the ANA hotel, shortly after drinks with some co-workers, looking towards the Tokyo Midtown development on the right and Roppongi Hills on the left (where my earlier shot of the Tokyo Nightscape was taken).

The internationally famous island of Sipadan lies five degrees north of the equator in the Sulawesi Sea. Lying 35km south of Semporna, on Sabah's mainland, like many tropical island it is thickly forested and surrounded by sandy beaches. Sipadan is an oceanic island and was formed by living corals growing on top of an extinct undersea volcano, which rises 600m from the seabed.

Ecco come mi si è presentato il cratere di Sud-Est la mattina del 16 novembre 2006. Una serie continua di forti esplosioni hanno portato al collasso del fianco orientale del cratere. La lava si andava a riversare verso la Valle del Bove passando per la depressione appena creatasi formando delle vere e proprie cascate.

 

This is how the south east crater appeared on the 16th november 2006. Due to the strong explosions the eastern flank of the crater collapsed letting the lava flows go toward the Bove Valley. On its route to the valley the lava flows created some rapids.

The waiting game.

Hi!

 

Nice to meet you!

Era la Noche de los Museos, una larga Noche de Arte y Encuentros... Imposible dejar de ir...

Y fuimos, como siempre, cámara en mano, con ganas de hacer nuevos descubrimientos.

Mucha concurrencia, los Museos llenos, la gente alborotada...

Y no podíamos dejar de pasar... Caminito... nos llamaba. ¡Caminito de Noche!!!

Y así la encontré... y la tomé... sin trípode... sin pulso... y sabiendo que no iba a salir muy bien...

Pero valió la pena encontrar rectas, curvas, figuras geométricas, luces, sombras... y el famoso gato de Caminito.

 

¡A empezar la semana a todo color!!! ¡Un abrazo a todos!

Abbiamo perso anche questo crepuscolo.

Nessuno ci ha visto stasera mano nella mano

mentre la notte azzurra cadeva sul mondo.

 

Ho visto dalla mia finestra

la festa del tramonto sui monti lontani.

 

A volte, come una moneta

mi si accendeva un pezzo di sole tra le mani.

 

Io ti ricordavo con l'anima oppressa

da quella tristezza che tu mi conosci.

 

Dove eri allora?

Tra quali genti?

Dicendo quali parole?

Perchè mi investirà tutto l'amore di colpo

quando mi sento triste e ti sento lontana?

 

E' caduto il libro che sempre si prende al crepuscolo

e come cane ferito il mantello mi si è accucciato tra i piedi.

 

Sempre, sempre ti allontani la sera

e vai dove il crepuscolo corre cancellando statue.

 

Pablo Neruda

Ever have a morning when you shoot more good shots in ten minutes than you have shot in the past year?

This morning contained that ten minutes.

Ten minutes that I had before beginning the school bus run.

What a morning! The light mist made everything wonderful to my eye.

Vancouver's Telus World of Science (Science World for those of us that have been around for a while) provides a shimmering highlight against cloudy September skies and the cobalt blue waters of False Creek. September 22, 2007.

Flaine Grand Massif is a beautiful ski area. It is surrounded in the North by Les Portes du Soleil, in the East by the Aravis, and in the south by the Mont Blanc region. A wonderful place for hiking in the summertime.

The Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe, also known as the Holocaust Memorial, is a memorial in Berlin to the Jewish victims of the Holocaust.

It consists of a 19,000 square meter (4.7 acre) site covered with 2,711 concrete slabs or "stelae", arranged in a grid pattern on a sloping field.

De todas maneras en grande u "original". Es la vista desde el oeste al este, más o menos 180º o un poco más.

My close friends in Bali took me to their village in Karengasem. Their neighbors just had a cremation and the day I came was the ngeroras ceremony. The celebration was replete with long processions and dramatic offerings, and performances involving the topeng (mask), the wayang (shadow puppet) and the rejang dewa. The latter is a dance by pre-pubescent girls in these lavishly tall homemade coconut leaf headresses called gelung rejang. Stretching from morning to midnight, the ceremony is a showcase of cultural purity. The village actually welcomed me fully and did not mind that there was one Filipino, albeit in Balinese attire, taking pictures as if there was no tomorrow.

Drats! How did I miss this??? Unforgivable!!! The bad thing is that it's not a common species around here, it's only the second time I spotted one in 4 years (here is the other one) and I managed to make a mess of all my captures that day...

 

This is a Violet Dropwing (Trithemis annulata) male.

Dranesville Tavern was built in 1823. In 1865, the Alexandria Gazette described Dranesville Tavern as "one of the finest roadside inns in the State of Virginia." That tradition of excellence and hospitality continues today at this beautifully restored National Historic Landmark.
