C’è nel giorno un’ora serena che si potrebbe definire assenza di rumore, è l’ora serena del crepuscolo.

(Victor Hugo)

 

Il Castello del Boccale si trova a Livorno, sud del quartiere di Antignano, lungo la strada per Quercianella, a poca distanza dalla Torre di Calafuria e dal Castello Sonnino. Il castello risale alla seconda metà dell'Ottocento, quando fu costruito sopra una torre medicea del 1595. Era una delle tante torri di avvistamento che presidiavano la costa in un complesso sistema di difesa

 

In the day there is a serene hour that could be defined as the absence of noise, it is the clear hour of twilight. (Victor Hugo)

 

The Castle of Boccale is located in Livorno, south of the Antignano district, along the road to Quercianella, a short distance from the Torre di Calafuria and Castello Sonnino. The castle dates back to the second half of the nineteenth century, when it was built over a Medici tower in 1595. It was one of the many watch towers that guarded the coast in a complex defense system.

En Asturias existen rincones dignos de ser descubiertos, paraísos perdidos de leyenda. Gran parte de la costa de Ribadesella es uno de ellos y más concretamente la ruta de los Acantilados del Infierno; un entorno sobrecogedor con precipicios de infarto y paisajes dignos de admirad por su belleza.

 

Espero que esta escena y foto también sea de vuestro agrado

Un rayo de esperanza

Lightning of Hope

Un rayon d'espoir

 

En un mundo acosado por la sinrazón de los conflictos armados, en un planeta en el que la fuerza y la mentira se imponen sobre el diálogo sincero, la tolerancia, la solidaridad y la paz, cuarenta y siete millones de ciudadanos están a punto de decidir cambiar su futuro.

 

Sí. El Domingo próximo, el pueblo de Colombia está llamado a participar en un acontecimiento histórico... Tan histórico, tan único, tan poco probable hoy en día como es... LA PAZ!!!

 

Si los colombianos así lo quieren, un futuro nuevo y mejor puede empezar a marcar sus vidas con el sello indeleble del diálogo, de la empatía, del perdón por ambas partes y de la necesaria colaboración, tolerancia y fraternidad para empezar a cerrar las heridas provocadas por cinco décadas de desencuentros y de cruenta guerra entre hermanos.

 

Me emociona, me llena de esperanza y me devuelve la fe en la fraternidad humana que mis hermanas y hermanos colombianos hayan llegado a la conclusión de que están dispuestos a dialogar, a perdonar y a olvidar el odio, la rabia y el rencor para darle una oportunidad al diálogo, la negociación, la cesión y la comprensión.

 

Mis mejores deseos y mi más sincero afecto en este día para tantas amigas y amigos colombianos de Flickr.

 

Enhorabuena Diana, Lina, Diego, Rosalba, Ricardo, Enrique... Y en vuestro nombre, enhorabuena de corazón a todas y todos los ciudadanos de Colombia.

 

Porque por supuesto, hoy, yo también SOY COLOMBIANO.

Entrance to the main building at the Karlsborg fortress.

 

The fortress (in Swedish called Karlsborgs fästning) was built 1819-1909 and was meant to work as a second capital in case of war, with room for both the king and the government. The problem was that when this whole project was finished, it was kind of old fashioned. And Sweden has not been under attack either, so there has been no need for the Swedish leading elite to locate here.

 

Since 1935 the fortress is a listed building.

There is hardly a better place in my area to enjoy a perfect Autumn day than the open-air -museum in Detmold. We spent a whole day in beautiful sunshine without a cloud in this lovely location.

  

The LWL-Freilichtmuseum in Detmold is a great place to learn and experience the world of our ancestors. The open-air-museum is covered with buildings, tools, animals and plants of countryside life in Northwest Germany in the last couple of centuries. An endless source of inspiration for HDR photography.

We haven't had any real winter weather yet, so I was happy to see the ice on the groynes at Fifty Point Conservation Area.

Christmas is less than a fortnight away and nature here in Ostwestfalen is like early Spring. We used Sunday afternoon for an extended hiking tour around home waters of the river Werre in the Löhne area.

El Metropol Parasol consiste en seis parasoles de grandes dimensiones compuestos de madera laminada que descansan a 26 metros de altura sobre seis pilares cilíndricos retroiluminados y dos columnas de hormigón bajo las cuales se albergan los ascensores que dan acceso al mirador. Las partes altas de cada parasol se entrelazan formando una única cubierta.

Debido a que el perfil de la estructura recuerda al de un conjunto de setas, los ciudadanos pronto empezaron a llamarla popularmente «Las Setas». Este hecho llevó a que en 2013 se decidiese hacer oficial el apodo y rotular la obra con la marca comercial «Setas de Sevilla»

This famous place was built 1721-1725 by the architects Francesco de Sanctis and Alessandro Specchi. The name derives from the Spanish embassy close by. But it might be worth noting that the Italian name is Scalinata di Trinità dei Monti and there is nothing Spanish about it at all.

 

The church at the top of the Spanish steps is really called Santissima Trinità dei Monti, though more commonly just called Trinità dei Monti. So it is from this church the steps have their Italian name. But the church also has the French name La Trinité-des-Monts - because this church actually belongs to the French state. The work on the building of the church had begun in 1502 - but it was not consecrated until 1585. And since fashion change, what had been intended as a church in late Gothic style, ended up being made in the Renaissance style instead.

 

The obelisk in front of the church might look Egyptian, but is actually Roman - made for the Horti Sallustiani in the city of Rome in the later years of the 1st century B.C.

The leaves are all gone for another season. Soon the river will begin to freeze up and the snow will start to fall. It saddens me - as I am a summer person.
