This shot has been taken in Manarola during the blue hour, the temperature was around five degres and the waves were pretty high in the sea. The town is almost desert during winter, but always a beautiful subject to photograph.

The witch tower in Treysa is a round tower and part of the city fortification.

 

The so-called witch tower dates from the 15th century. It is a late Gothic round tower with external access to the upper floor. Its protruding tin crowning is characteristic. It was part of the fortification of the lower town. It is the only largely preserved round tower in the city and once comprised four floors.

 

It was used in the upper part to defend the city gate and in the lower part as a dungeon. In 1609, a woman accused of witchcraft was held in the tower. Due to its historical significance as part of the medieval city fortification, it is listed as a monument. Its current location is the crossroads Steingasse/Rosengasse.

Each of us can look back upon someone who made a great difference in our lives, someone whose wisdom or simple acts of caring made an impression upon us. In all likelihood it was someone who sought no recognition for their deed other than the joy of knowing that, by their hand, another's life had been made better.

I finish the year with this photograph in the hope of returning with the camera and good company.

There are doormen who just do their job and there are doormen who love where they work.

 

This man working here was the friendliest and most interested doorman I ever met over all the years I'm now photographing staircases.

The lighthouse of Djursten in the island of Gräsö. The afternoon sun shines between clouds.../Bortanför skuggan från ett förbipasserade moln...Djurstens fyr på Gräsö, eftermiddagssolen lyser stundvis mellan molnen.../ Más allá de la sombra de una nube pasajera...el faro de Djursten en la isla de Gräsö, el sol de la tarde brilla de a ratos entre nubes...(DSC_7358-2)

Perhaps the world’s longest covered walkway, this winding 666 vault arcade is almost four kilometres long going from downtown Bologna to the Sanctuary of the Madonna di San Luca.

Calgary - Alberta

Canada

Peace Bridge

Designed by Santiago Calatrava

 

The bridge was built by The City of Calgary to connect the southern Bow River pathway and Downtown Calgary with the northern Bow River pathway and the community of Sunnyside. This connection was designed to accommodate the increasing number of people commuting to and from work and those utilizing Calgary's pathways.

 

I was fascinated by the Peace Bridge and because my hotel was right behind the Shaw building I could go there anytime I wanted...:-))

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.

Not sure about the actual purpose of this drainage structure. It apparently belongs to the outflow system of the "Kläranlage Gut Großlappen" wastewater treatment plant.
