Went wondering around the countryside looking for some autumn colors south of Stuttgart today. Happened to find a good location on the south side of the Hohenzollern Castle this time. Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend! :-)

Die Ciudad de las Artes y de las Ciencias (kat./val. Ciutat de les Arts i de les Ciències, dt. Stadt der Künste und der Wissenschaften) ist ein kultureller und architektonischer Gebäude- und Parkkomplex in Valencia, Spanien. Das moderne Wahrzeichen der Stadt liegt im trockengelegten Flussbett des Turia. Der Komplex wurde von den spanischen Architekten Santiago Calatrava und Félix Candela entworfen und am 16.

The fountain was cast in Paris and completed for the 1876 International Centennial Exhibition in Philadelphia, the same exhibit at which Bartholdi displayed the Statue of Liberty’s right arm and torch. Bartholdi had originally intended to complete the Statue of Liberty in 1876 in time for the Country's Centennial, but construction was delayed. While the remainder of the statue was being completed in Paris, Bartholdi displayed the arm and torch at the Philadelphia Exhibition, along with his commissioned fountain

Fährhafen Puttgarden auf Fehmarn in der Ostsee.

---------------------------

Die Fährverbindung von Puttgarden nach Rödby wird auch Vogelfluglinie genannt. Diese Schiffsverbindung ist wichtig für den internationalen Straßen- und Eisenbahnverkehr zwischen Deutschland und Dänemark. Sie führt von Puttgarden auf der deutschen Insel Fehmarn über den Fehmarnbelt bis zur dänischen Insel Lolland.

 

Die Vogelfluglinie wurde 1963 von König Friedrich IX. von Dänemark und dem Bundespräsidenten Heinrich Lübke eröffnet. Der Name "Vogelfluglinie" bezieht sich auf die Flugroute der Kraniche und anderer arktischer Wasservögel zwischen Mitteleuropa und Skandinavien.

 

Die Fähren starten in der Regel alle 30 Minuten vom Hafen Puttgarden in Richtung Rodby. Die reine Fahrzeit für die Strecke beträgt ca. 45 Minuten. Der Check-In für reservierte Fahrzeuge sollte min. 15 Minuten vor Abfahrt erfolgen.

SPILIMBERGO

LA CHIESETTA DELL'ANCONA

Scendendo dalla Piazza del Duomo verso il Tagliamento, si trova a metà costa, la Chiesetta dell’Ancona.

 

Il titolo originario della chiesa, legato alla tradizione, è quella di Santa Sabbata (santa Sabida), una santa inesistente riconducibile a culti precristiani, legati ai corsi dei fiumi. Già nel 1597, però, l'Ancona viene dedicata alla Madonna della Mercede (venerata il 24 settembre) pregata come protettrice dalle insidie del guado del Tagliamento.

 

Oggi la chiesa, molto semplice e sobria, poggia su una pianta regolare e si presenta con un'unica aula. Esternamente è possibile ammirare un grazioso portichetto sorretto da cinque colonne e a metà dei lato sinistro si innalza il campanile. All'interno si trova un altare in marmi policromi e un affresco di fine Quattrocento raffigurante la Madonna con Bambino e due angíoletti.

 

In questo luogo si incontravano dunque mercanti e pellegrini, poiché sorgeva su un passaggio obbligato per attraversare il guado del Tagliamento, dopo aver pagato un dazio, raggiungere poi Gemona, Venzone e proseguire verso le Germanie.

 

Per coloro che entravano a Spilimbergo attraversato il guado, era il tempio dove pregare la Madonna per la protezione accordata e lo scampo dai pericoli, allora frequenti: perdita dei carico, ferite, annegamenti.

E' per questo motivo che qui venivano deposti gli ex voto, tavolette dipinte di gusto popolare, forma di ringraziamento e di devozione (ora raccolti e conservati nell'archivio parrocchiale).

 

Era dunque un punto d'incontro, di scambi commerciali e di preghiera.

 

Nel 1687 l'Ancona venne ampliata con una loggia, al fine di ospitare il numero sempre più grande di fedeli, che si riunivano.

 

Successivamente venne restaurata e ampliata più volte fino al 1968, quando venne inaugurata; nel 1976 venne distrutta dal terremoto e finalmente nel 1978 riacquistò l'antico splendore.

 

Per la sua bellezza e la sua posizione panoramica sul Tagliamento, l'Ancona è per antonomasia considerata a livello locale la chiesetta degli innamorati.

With many thanks to David Hulme (here on Flickr) who's wonderful image of this wreck entirely inspired this picture. One of my all time favourite images here on Flickr, its impact was so strong as to finally make my mind up to visit this area of Scotland, and making my own picture of it was always at the top of my itinerary.

MEXICO , Playa Marona,

 

Nach der anstrengenden Rundreise mit vielen Kilometern, den zahlreichen Pyramiden-Aufstiegen und zahlreichen Stadtbesichtigungen in einem tollen und interessanten Teil Mexikos erlaube ich mir noch 3 Tage Erholung in diesem schönen Hotel an der Riviera Maya.

 

After the strenuous round trip with many kilometers, the numerous pyramid climbs and numerous city tours in a great and interesting part of Mexico, I allow myself another 3 days of relaxation in this beautiful Hotel Catalania on the Riviera Maya.

Northern Utah is not well known for landscape photography, I hope I can help to change that image just a little.
