Casa Battlo. Famous creation by Gaudi (1904) for the industrialist Josep Batllo. Covered in colorful tiny pieces of mosaic and stained glass windows. Casa Batll. Famous creation by Gaudi (1904) for the industrialist Josep Batllo. Covered in colorful tiny pieces of mosaic and stained glass windows. Casa Batlló (Catalan pronunciation: [ˈkazə bəʎˈʎo, bədˈʎo]), is a building restored by Antoni Gaudí and Josep Maria Jujol, built in the year 1877 and remodelled in the years 1905–1907; located at 43, Passeig de Gràcia (passeig is Catalan for promenade or avenue), part of the Illa de la Discòrdia in the Eixample district of Barcelona, Catalonia. The local name for the building is Casa dels ossos (House of Bones), and indeed it does have a visceral, skeletal organic quality. It was originally designed for a middle-class family and situated in a prosperous district of Barcelona. The building looks very remarkable — like everything Gaudí designed, only identifiable as Modernisme or Art Nouveau in the broadest sense. The ground floor, in particular, is rather astonishing with tracery, irregular oval windows and flowing sculpted stone work. It seems that the goal of the designer was to avoid straight lines completely. Much of the façade is decorated with a mosaic made of broken ceramic tiles (trencadís) that starts in shades of golden orange moving into greenish blues. The roof is arched and was likened to the back of a dragon or dinosaur.

This Clark's Anemonefish was taken on a dive in Truk (Chuuk). Rather than trying to hide in her anemone, this little clown was behaving rather aggressively towards me...most likely protecting eggs. So, I took one shot...thanked her...and was on my way. The size of the anemonefish, or clownfish as they are commonly called, was about 5 in length. This species is in a family called Damselfish. The fish have developed the ability to live among the stinging tentacles of large sea anemones. Equipment used was a housed Nikon N90s, 105mm lens, and Ikelite Substrobe 200.

In 1950, the Izu islands were added to the park, and its name changed to its present designation. Due to its proximity to the Tokyo metropolis and ease of transportation, it is the most visited national park in all Japan, with the number of visitors per year exceeding 100 million. Nearby cities include Odawara, Fuji, Minami Ashigara, and Numazu.

Being a rather hilly place, Phuket is full of great views. We like to find the high spots, get some fresh air and sit on top of the world. Sometimes, it's good for your spirit just to get up above it all for a while. The viewpoint at Khao Khad is up a hill on Cape Panwa near the Phuket Aquarium, in the SE corner of Phuket. Getting there is easy enough when you know how, but it's not very well signposted and the signs that do exist are mostly in Thai. There are several roads leading there - Cape Panwa has many small roads and is a great area to drive around. You drive through rubber plantations to get there - rubber was one of the products that helped make Phuket a rich province, well before the tourist hordes discovered it. The tower is reached by a staircase, there is lots of parking space below, though you won't ever see the carpark full. From the top there are views across Chalong Bay to the West and Phuket Town to the North, and across the east to Koh Yao - you can see Phi Phi clearly too if the air is not too hazy.

Edakkal cave-Petroglyph. Edakkal Caves are two natural caves at a remote location at Edakkal, 25 km from Kalpetta in the Wayanad district of Kerala in India's. Edakkal Caves are two natural caves at a remote location at Edakkal, 25 km from Kalpetta in the Wayanad district of Kerala in India's Western Ghats. They lie 1,200 metres above sea level on Ambukutty Mala, beside an ancient trade route connecting the high mountains of Mysore to the ports of the Malabar coast. Inside the caves are pictorial writings believed to be dating to at least 5000 BC, from the Neolithic man, indicating the presence of a prehistoric civilization or settlement in this region. The Stone Age carvings of Edakkal are rare and are the only known examples from south India. These are not technically caves, but rather a cleft or rift approximately 96 feet (29 m) by 22 feet (6.7 m), a 30-foot-deep (9.1 m) fissure caused by a piece of rock splitting away from the main body. On one side of the cleft is a rock weighing several tons that covers this cleft to form the 'roof' of the cave. The carvings are of human and animal figures, tools used by humans and of symbols yet to be deciphered, suggesting the presence of a prehistoric settlement.

Gorgeous handmade dusty purple doily by crochet. Around the world, crochet became a thriving cottage industry, particularly in Ireland and northern France, supporting communities whose traditional livelihoods had been damaged by wars, changes in farming and land use, and crop failures. Women and sometimes even children would stay at home and create things such as clothes and blankets to make money. The finished items were purchased mainly by the emerging middle class. The introduction of crochet as an imitation of a status symbol, rather than a unique craft in its own right, had stigmatized the practice as common. Those who could afford lace made by older and more expensive methods disdained crochet as a cheap copy. This impression was partially mitigated by Queen Victoria, who conspicuously purchased Irish-made crochet lace and even learned to crochet herself. Irish crochet lace was further promoted by Mlle. Riego de la Branchardiere around 1842 who published patterns and instructions for reproducing bobbin lace and needle lace via crochet, along with many publications for making crocheted clothing from wool yarns. The patterns available as early as the 1840s were varied and complex.

Brazilian folk dance Bumba meu boi in São Luis, Maranhão. The bumba-meu-boi is a very popular and widespread comic-dramatic dance, which tells the story of the death and resurrection of an ox. Its name comes from the verb bumbar, meaning to beat up or against, and the expression is chanted by the crowd as an invitation for the ox (or rather, the men under the ox costume) to charge against them. In the city of São Luis do Maranhão and its environs there are many different groups, with elaborate costumes and different styles of music, which are called “sotaques”. “Sotaque de orquestra” uses an orchestra of saxes, clarinets, flutes, banjo, drums, etc. “Sotaque de zabumba” employs primarily very large drums; and “sotaque de matraca” a percussion instrument made of two pieces of wood that you carry in your hands and hit against each other.

Cruise ship passengers arriving at the Dale R. Lindsey Railroad Seward Intermodal Center and cruise ship terminal via the world famous Alaska Rail Road from Anchorage. Riding on the Alaska Rail Road, particularly the leg between Seward and Anchorage, is considered one of the best experiences in Alaska for both residents and visitors alike. Thousands of cruise ship passengers choose to ride the Alaksa Rail Road rather than taking a bus or renting a car each summer. Seward is a common summer cruise ship port of call, located on the Kenai Peninsula at the end of Resurrection Bay. Seward, named after former United States Secretary of State William H. Seward, who arranged the purchase of Alaska from Russia in 1867, is famous for commercial and recreational fishing, particularly halibut and salmon, outdoor recreation opportunities, including wildlife and marine mammal viewing opportunities.

Fusarium patch is a fungal disease that occurs on grass. It is a very common disease of golf courses, and is due to the fungus Michrodochium nivale. Golf courses are very favourable environment for fusarium development, as greens are usually well watered, sheltered by trees, with high levels of nitrogen, compacted and have rather alkaline soil. Michrodochium nivale development can be controlled through different management methods. The Chemical method is the most widely used. Other cultural controls are possible, such as the use of Fusarium resistant turf varieties, using soil bacteria to improve soil, practices to reduce thatch, improve drainage, mowing and raking infected patches to dry them. In this photo the disease has just started.

The Temple of Edfu is an ancient Egyptian temple located on the west bank of the Nile in the city of Edfu. It is the second largest temple in Egypt after Karnak and one of the best preserved. The temple, dedicated to the falcon god Horus, was built in the Ptolemaic period between 237 and 57 BCE. The inscriptions on its walls provide important information on language, myth and religion during the Greco-Roman period in ancient Egypt. They are translated by the german Edfu-Project. Edfu was one of several temples built during the Ptolemaic period, including Dendera, Esna, Kom Ombo and Philae. Its size reflects the relative prosperity of the time. Construction began in 237 BCE during the reign of Ptolemy III and completed in 57 BCE under Ptolemy XII. It was built on the site of an earlier, smaller temple also dedicated to Horus, although the previous structure was oriented east-west rather than north-south as in the present site. A ruined pylon lies just to the east of the current temple; inscriptional evidence has been found indicating a building program under New Kingdom rulers Ramesses I, Seti I and Ramesses II. The temple of Edfu fell into disuse as a religious monument following Theodosius I's edict banning non-Christian worship within the Roman Empire in 391 CE. As elsewhere, many of the temple's carved reliefs were razed by followers of the Christian faith which came to dominate Egypt. This photograph is part of the Imagine Collection, hosted by Alamy.

Dynamite is an explosive based on the explosive potential of nitroglycerin, initially using diatomaceous earth or another absorbent substance such as sawdust as an adsorbent. It was invented by Swedish chemist and engineer Alfred Nobel in 1866 in Krümmel and patented in 1867. It is usually sold in the form of a stick 20 centimetres (roughly 8 inches) long and 2.5 centimetres (1 inch) in diameter, but other sizes also exist. Dynamite is considered a high explosive, which means it detonates rather than deflagrates. Trinitrotoluene (TNT) is a chemical compound with the formula C6H2(NO2)3CH3. This yellow-coloured solid is a reagent (reactant) in chemistry but is best known as a useful explosive material with convenient handling properties. The explosive yield of TNT is considered the standard measure of strength of bombs and other explosives.

A giant squid has a mantle (torso), eight arms, and two longer tentacles (the longest known tentacles of any cephalopod). The arms and tentacles account for much of the squid's great length, making it much lighter than its chief predator, the sperm whale. Scientifically documented specimens have masses of hundreds, rather than thousands, of kilograms.
