lugaresadescubrir has added a photo to the pool: Este tramo del ro cerca de Pinho es la confluencia en muy pocos kilmetros de varios municipios: al menos los de Tabuao, Sabrosa, Alij y So Joo da Pesqueira, que es desde donde se toma la foto. Y antes eran ms, porque al menos Tabuao es el resultado de la fusin de varios ayuntamientos anteriores. Como puede apreciarse, la cantidad de viedo que hay en esta comarca es simplemente apabullante. Y se extiende muchos kilmetros en todas direcciones. lugaresadescubrir.blogspot.com/search/label/douro

beachc0mber has added a photo to the pool: Took a wander down to the harbour tonight, but forgot the little dohicky that screws into the bottom of the camera as a tripod attachment. So mad at myself. I took this lying down on the grass but not pleased with anything I took tonight. Met a chap down here tonight, a fellow Flickrer - started talking about L lenses and before you know it we'd been chatting for ages: Rob, it was very nice to meet you.

Saint Cirq Lapopie

Image
Jaume CP BCN has added a photo to the pool: Saint-Cirq-Lapopie (en occitan Sent Circ de la Ppia) est une commune franaise, situe dans le dpartement du Lot dans la rgion Midi-Pyrnes en Quercy. Le nom de la commune provient de saint Cyr, (occitan : Sent Circ) honor dans l'glise paroissiale qui porte son nom, qui a t frquemment dform en saint Cirgues ou en saint Cirq dans les rgions d'expression occitane. Lapopie, nom de famille, vient de l'occitan "la ppia", fourgon pour tisonner le feu (Mistral) Il est vraisemblable que l'occupation de cet escarpement rocheux surplombant la rive gauche du Lot, face un cirque de falaises, a tent les hommes ds l'poque gallo-romaine. La terre de Saint-Cirq appartenait la famille de Cardaillac. En 1229, Bertrand de Cardaillac rendit hommage Raymond comte de Toulouse pour cette terre. Un de ses descendant, nomm lui aussi Bertrand, reut en 1395 le chteau et la terre de Saint-Cirq. Il fut la source des barons de Cardaillac-Sai

Crossing

Image
Shashanka Nanda has added a photo to the pool: At a wayside station in northern Rajasthan, a meter gauge train and its passengers wait to let the opposite number cross. Scenes like these are fast becoming a rarity on the ever expanding Indian Railways network. Meter Gauge is giving way to Broad, semaphores to electronics and single tracks to double. Soon, these unhurried journeys will just be memory.

Charles E. Attard has added a photo to the pool: The Rotunda of St John The Baptist in Xewkija, Gozo, situated just a few minutes drive from Victoria. This photo was daken during one of my photo shoots last month. You could see this church from every part of the island. The church's dome is actually the third largest unsupported dome in the world. Pretty neat huh? Charles .E. Attard - www.photogozo.com

Denmark - Copenhagen - Christianshavn

Image
Darrell Godliman has added a photo to the pool: From Wikipedia : "Christianshavn is an artificial island neighbourhood located in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was founded in the early 17th century by Christian IV as part of his extension of the fortifications of Copenhagen. Originally it was laid out as an independent privileged merchant's town with inspiration from Dutch cities but it was soon incorporated into Copenhagen proper. Dominated by canals, it is the part of Copenhagen with the most nautical atmosphere. For much of the 20th century a working-class neighbourhood, Christianshavn developed a bohemian reputation in the 1970s and it is now a fashionable, diverse and lively part of the city with its own distinctive personality, with residents tending to see themselves first as Christianshavners and then as Copenhageners. Businessmen, students, artists, hippies and traditional families with children live side-by-side."

ajpscs has added a photo to the pool: no rules, no limitations, no boundaries it's like an art All Rights Reserved by ajpscs "Ohara Hadaka Matsuri" Hadaka Matsuri a traditional autumn festival harking back to the Edo Era, created for the purpose of praying for bumper crops and good fishing. The highlight of the festival is called Shiofumi when18 floats of local shrines are carried out to sea by brave young men clad only in scanty loincloth to the encouraging cheers of spectators while the patrons of the shrines sings traditional songs. Hoisting the mikoshi onto the shoulders of teams of 25-30 people, they charge into the surf and toss the gigantic mikoshi up and down. And then all the mikoshi are paraded on the shopping streets of the town until 10PM. Date : Every 23-24 of September Place : Ohara Isumi City, Chiba about 1:45 hrs from Tokyo Station No need to comment, just sharing.
