DALKEY, SOUTH DUBLIN
christian travel sites
Image by infomatique
Dalkey Island is situated about 10 miles south of Dublin, near the village of Dalkey, two miles south of Dún Laoghaire harbour. The island is now uninhabited by humans, but there are the remains of houses, a church and a Martello Tower. Located less than 300 metres offshore the island comprises 9 hectares (22 acres).
Dalkey Island, only 5 minutes by local boat from Coliemore Harbour, is an important site of ancient and historic remains. Artefacts from the island, now housed in the National Museum in Dublin, are evidence that the original occupants were from the Mesolithic or Middle Stone Age. Settlers continued to use the site through the Iron Age and Early Christian period.
There is evidence it was inhabited in the 4th millennium BC (6000 years ago) and was also used as a Viking base. There are ruins of another church, dating from the 7th century, named after St Begnet. This was altered on the east side when builders used it as living quarters while building the nearby Martello tower and gun battery in 1804. An older wooden church was probably here before the present stone one was built.
A promontory fort was located at the northern end of the island, its presence still visible today in the form of a ditch. A herd of goats, originally put there in the early 1800s, remains there today but they are replacements of the original goats which were removed.
You can take a boat to the island in the summer months, by asking one of the local fishermen at Coliemore or Bulloch Harbour. The island is also an ideal spot for fishing, with Pollock, Coalfish, Wrasse and Mackerel being caught.
The ruined stone church was built in the 9th/10th Century and was probably abandoned when the Vikings used the island as a base to form part of the busiest port in the country at that time. In the early 19th Century the British Admiralty erected the Martello Tower, one of eight dotted along the Dun Laoghaire coastline, as an early warning defensive device against the one time threat of invasion during the Napoleonic era.
The channel between the island and the mainland is very deep and was once considered as a location for an oil terminal. However, the local area is very residential, and it was decided that the terminal should go elsewhere.
The waters around Dalkey Island are much used for sailing, angling and diving. Rocks known as Maiden or Carraig Rock, Clare Rock and Lamb Island all to the northwest form part of the ridge of the Island. Parts of these rocks are only visible at low tide.
The Rocks to the east of the Island are known as "The Muglins" and are a different group or chain. These form a danger to shipping and have been fitted with a distinctive beacon.

The pathway to the Chapel of the Holy Cross – Sedona
christian travel sites
Image by Al_HikesAZ
I played tour guide for my daughter and her friend Brenda for a trip to Sedona. We toured the Chapel of the Holy Cross. To reach the Chapel of the Holy Cross you climb this ramp and go around the corner.

www.chapeloftheholycross.com/store/shopcontent.asp?type=H…
History

The first conception came to Marguerite Bruswig Staude in 1932 in New York City while observing the newly constructed Empire State Building. When viewed from a certain angle a cross seemed to impose itself through the very core of the structure. She wanted to build a structure that would glorify her Creator and in thanksgiving for all that her family had received. She traveled throughout Europe looking for the ideal location. She returned to the United States and while her and her husband Tony traveled through Sedona, she was struck by the beauty of the area and decided that this chapel should be built here. . “This would be a monument to faith, but a spiritual fortress so charged with God, that it spurs man’s spirit godward".

Built on a twin pinnacled spur about 250 feet high, jutting out of a thousand foot red rock wall, "solid as the Rock of Peter" the building of the Chapel was completed in April 1956. Just the physical construction was a physical miracle, overcoming difficult conditions to construct this chapel.

The message of the Chapel "That the Church may come to life in the souls of men and be a living reality is renewed and observed each day. Even as we speak it invites all to come to spend time to get connected with their creator.

The Diocese of Phoenix and St John Vianney parish has maintained and administered the Chapel since 1969. We are only caretakers of this most spiritual structure, where all are welcomed to come, meditate, pray and be reconnected with their Creator. We are here to pass this on to those who come after, so the Chapel may glorify the great gifts God has given us. In our transient exsistence, in good times and bad, we are here to be united with all in faith and purpose. To live in peace and unity with all our brothers and sisters .

The Chapel of the Holy Cross has been a compelling Sedona landmark since its completion in 1956. Designed by Marguerite Brunswig Staude, a pupil of Frank Lloyd Wright, the Chapel appears to rise out of the surrounding red rocks. The towering cross and awesome panorama of buttes, valley and sky are a source of inspiration inviting rest and reflection. (This site presents incredible photo opportunities in all directions!)

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chapel_of_the_Holy_Cross
The American Institute of Architects gave the Chapel its Award of Honor in 1957. In the sculptor’s words, “Though Catholic in faith, as a work of art the Chapel has a universal appeal. Its doors will ever be open to one and all, regardless of creed, that God may come to life in the souls of all men and be a living reality.”

In 2007 Arizonans voted the Chapel to be one of the Seven Man-Made Wonders of Arizona,[2] and it is also the site of one of the so-called Sedona vortices

La Comedia de las Cosas
de Martin Suter

Pablo, el gerente de productos, llega cada noche a su departamento de soltero, saca sus compras y prepara su pizza congelada en el horno. El trabajo no anda bien anda y últimamente está demasiado solo: no habla con sus vecinos, sus amigos no le devuelven las llamadas telefónicas y Susi, su novia, lo ha dejado hace poco. No obstante, él mira todo de manera diferente: es un ganador, un soltero que casi no puede escapar las mujeres y de los amigos que lo persiguen, logró que Susi se fuera para ayudarla a soltarse emocionalmente de él y está convencido que ella es una “mujer de un solo hombre” que está desesperada por volver.

Esta noche, sin embargo, algo pasa en su departamento: en un hecho totalmente inesperado, su sofá le hace ver que no es un “single”, sino que está solo; su cojín de flores le revela los creativos usos que Susi, la “onemanwoman”, le ha dado en situaciones comprometidas y su chaqueta Hugo Boss trata de estimularlo para que salgan de bares y conozcan gente.

¿Su sofá?, ¿su cojín?, ¿su chaqueta? Sí. Otros roles principales los desempeñan: un “puff” atrevido, un cojín de botón, una pizza, un psiquiatra y la ex novia

Impression, Bamboo Forest – Sexta

This collection of photographs was the result of a happy mistake while walking through the Hakone Garden’s bamboo forest in Saratoga. I was messing around with my camera on manual mode, trying different angles and motions when I noticed the resulting images resembled impressionist paintings. I liked how the bamboo forest was implied though color, light and movement, so I sat there for a while and tried different things until I got the look I wanted. All of these photographs are single shots with very minor adjustments in Photoshop.

I will put up one piece every Monday, Thursday and Saturday for the next three weeks.

Columnal Architecture

Image by wenzday01
This kind of looks like a (fake) tilt-shift despite not being so. There’s just something about the angle, the light and the focus that makes me think that way.

***

From Wikipedia: The Colosseum or Coliseum, originally the Flavian Amphitheatre, is an elliptical amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy, the largest ever built in the Roman Empire. It is one of the greatest works of Roman architecture and engineering.

Occupying a site just east of the Roman Forum, its construction started between 70 and 72 AD under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 AD under Titus, with further modifications being made during Domitian’s reign (81–96). The name "Amphitheatrum Flavium" derives from both Vespasian’s and Titus’s family name (Flavius, from the gens Flavia).

Originally capable of seating around 50,000 spectators, the Colosseum was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles. It remained in use for nearly 500 years with the last recorded games being held there as late as the 6th century. As well as the traditional gladiatorial games, many other public spectacles were held there, such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology. The building eventually ceased to be used for entertainment in the early medieval era. It was later reused for such varied purposes as housing, workshops, quarters for a religious order, a fortress, a quarry and a Christian shrine.

After posting a photo yesterday of the Colosseum that looked like a (fake) tilt-shift despite not being so, I kind of see the same with this one. It probably has to do with the composition and how all the elements fall together.

Hagia Irene is a former Eastern Orthodox church located in the outer courtyard of Topkap? Palace in Istanbul, Turkey. The building reputedly stands on the site of a pre-Christian temple. It ranks, in fact, as the first church built in Constantinople. Roman emperor Constantine I commissioned the first Hagia Eirene church in the 4th century. In 381 the First Council of Constantinople took place in the church. It served as the church of the Patriarchate before Hagia Sophia was completed in 537 … More

Date Mitsumune
christian dating
Image by jpellgen
This is a poor shot inside the Sankei-den. The man riding the horse is Date Mitsumune, and the men around him are retainers who committed seppuku upon the death of their master. The entire inside of the mausoleum is covered in gold. Mitsumune was the son of Tadamune, and also the great-grandson of Tokugawa Ieyasu. He died at the young age of 19. Some believe he was poisoned because he was a danger to the power of the Tokugawa.

Built in 1646 by Date Tadamune (1599-1658), Entsu-in is a Buddhist temple in Matsushima honoring his son, Mitsumune (1627-1645), who died at an early age. The temple includes a mausoleum as well as a rose garden and famous rock garden. The temple is also known for hidden Christian symbolism seen throughout the grounds.

Christian Radich

Image by Guillaume Cattiaux
Le Christian Radich est un trois-mâts carré construit par Framnæs shipyard à Sandefjord en Norvège. Conçu pour servir de navire-école de la marine marchande norvégienne, il fut livré le 17 juin 1937.

Navire-école de la marine marchande norvégienne, il ne put effectuer que deux voyages de formation avant la guerre. Saisi par les Allemands en 1943, il est mis en dépôt à l’usage des équipages de U-boat, les redoutables sous-marins du troisième Reich. Les Alliés le récupèrent en 1945, démâté et dans un triste état. Une fois restauré, il reprend sa fonction première pendant quelques années, avant que son destin ne bascule en 1956. C’est en effet à cette date que le Christian Radich devient une vedette de cinéma, lorsque le film Windjammer est tourné à son bord. Quelques petits rôles plus tard, il apparaît au début des années 70 dans la série britannique à succès de la BBC, La grande aventure de James Onedin.

Il est basé à Oslo. Depuis 1999, il est exploité dans le cadre de croisières payantes et participe à de nombreux événements maritimes européens comme la Cutty Sark, et, donc, l’Armada de Rouen.

Le Christian Radich a une longueur hors-tout de 73 mètres (62,5 mètres pour la coque), un maître-bau de 9,7 mètres et un tirant d’eau de 4,7 mètres pour un déplacement de 1050 tonnes. Il peut atteindre une vitesse de 14 nœuds sous voiles, 10 nœuds au moteur. Son équipage se compose de 18 hommes et il peut embarquer jusqu’à 88 passagers.
