Located at Playa de la Malvarrosa in Valencia, Spain and known simply as Water Boat Fountain (or Fuente del Barco de Agua in Spanish) by visitors and locals alike, the sculptural fountain creates the illusion of both the hull and the sail of a boat with liquid jets. One is left baffled by its simple design mimicking the appearance of a sailboat with nothing more than a few rods spraying fine streams of water.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> A variety of similar designs of the structure are said to be situated around the world, including one in <a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.422655327790309.102336.297062620349581" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Portugal</a> and one in <a href="http://www.flickr.com/search/?w=88207956@N00&q=boat%20fountain" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Israel</a>, though this one in Spain appears to gain the most attention from foreign visitors.

The images in the series features a number of materials, including consumables readily found in one's pantry, generating enough power to light lamps and LED lights. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> The ongoing photo project, which began in 2010, was initially inspired by the powerful simplicity of the potato battery. The science enthusiast explains, "By inserting a galvanized nail into one side of a potato and a copper wire in the other side a small electrical current is generated. The zinc coating on the nail gives off electrons due to the electrolyte environment within the potato. These electrons then travel along the copper wire providing the electrical voltage to illuminate a small light emitting diode. The utter simplicity of this electrical phenomenon is endlessly fascinating for me."</div> <br> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <b>Orange Battery</b></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-h2if0oHroQE/UY4-SqxUDXI/AAAAAAABIbM/uC3AD1eVDDE/s1600/Artistic-Scientist-Generates-Electricity-from-Foods-001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Orange Battery" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-h2if0oHroQE/UY4-SqxUDXI/AAAAAAABIbM/uC3AD1eVDDE/s1600/Artistic-Scientist-Generates-Electricity-from-Foods-001.jpg" title="Scientist Generates Electricity from Foods"></a></div> <br> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> Additionally, Charland reflects on his own project by saying: "This work speaks to a common curiosity we all have for how the world works as well as a global concern for the future of earth’s energy sources.

From the 9th to 13th centuries, the city was the capital of the Kingdom of Pagan, and the political, economic and cultural nerve center of the Pagan Empire. During the kingdom's height between the 11th and 13th centuries, the wealthy Pagan rulers commissioned thousands of temples to be built in the Bagan plains. It is estimated that over 10,000 Buddhist temples, pagodas and monasteries once stood on this 100 square km plain in central Myanmar, of which the remains of over 2200 temples and pagodas still survive to the present day. </div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> Bagan became a central powerbase in the mid 9th century under King Anawratha, who unified Burma under Theravada Buddhism.

Dutch historian Jo Hedwig Teeuwisse tries to demonstrate that very literally with her Ghosts of War photo series, where she blends the present day and the original World War II pictures of the same place into one. Jo spends hours looking for the locations and taking pictures that match the originals, and then photoshops them to combine the war ghosts into the current settings.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> “I try to make people realise that history is all around us.

It is an extraordinary ensemble of buildings offering a complete panorama of pre-Saharan earthen construction techniques. The oldest constructions do not appear to be earlier than the 17th century, although their structure and technique were propagated from a very early period in the valleys of southern Morocco. The site was also one of the many trading posts on the commercial route linking ancient Sudan to Marrakesh by the Dra Valley and the Tizi-n'Telouet Pass. Architecturally, the living quarters form a compact grouping, closed and suspended. The community areas of the ksar include a mosque, a public square, grain threshing areas outside the ramparts, a fortification and a loft at the top of the village, an caravanserai, two cemeteries (Muslim and Jewish) and the Sanctuary of the Saint Sidi Ali or Amer. The Ksar of Ait- Ben-Haddou is a perfect synthesis of earthen architecture of the pre-Saharan regions of Morocco. <b><span style="font-size: large;">18</span></b> more images after the break...</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> </div> </div><a href="http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/05/ksar-of-ait-ben-haddou-morocco.html#more">Continue Reading.......</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?a=B_FwaHUllts:2qqGq0yb9MQ:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ritemail?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ritemail/~4/B_FwaHUllts" height="1" width="1"/>2013-05-09T05:41:50.614-07:000http://ritemail.blogspot.com/2013/05/ksar-of-ait-ben-haddou-morocco.htmlWatercolors on the verge of Fantasyhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/ritemail/~3/vF-rTpI69mc/watercolors-on-verge-of-fantasy.htmlArtnoreply@blogger.com (Nirmal Mai)Fri, 03 May 2013 06:00:43 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-849501205035774813.post-8260617984002819890<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_LsBGudtSrY/UYOxhe0ofqI/AAAAAAABIAA/5HcAaNRy5DE/s1600/Watercolors+Verge+Fantasy+001.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Liu Yun Sheng «Child of the West»"" border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-_LsBGudtSrY/UYOxhe0ofqI/AAAAAAABIAA/5HcAaNRy5DE/s1600/Watercolors+Verge+Fantasy+001.jpg" title="Watercolors on the verge of Fantasy"></a></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> Liu Yun Sheng «Child of the West»"</div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <br></div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"> International Watercolor Society announced the results of its Third competition <a href="http://www.internationalwatercolor.org/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">IWS 2012-2013</a>.

It seems that our neighbor to the east has created a pipeline for the production of watercolor artists at the level of state support - the quantity and quality of their work is amazing. In general, these air, light, 'live' watercolors are gorgeous and in technique and content, and it is difficult to imagine how hard it was for the jury to choose the winners.
