Giant Jesus statue in a village, awaiting controversial installation on Mount Hatis.
An imposing sight in a small village near Yerevan – this giant Jesus statue is reportedly ready for its next, debated destination: the summit of Mount Hatis. Quite the juxtaposition seeing it here before the ascent.

Huge Jesus statue, temporarily grounded amidst construction site.

The building across the street that this little girl is looking at was built in 1️⃣8️⃣7️⃣8️⃣. The apartment block is located in the “Zaagpoortbuurt” (literally: ‘sawgate area’). 🪚🚪

Marnixstraat is a main road between two famous squares (Leidseplein and Haarlemmerplein). The street has a mix of old and modern buildings, including some from the 19th century. A great deal of it used to be part of the old city walls. 🏡 🏛️

I usually avoid posting pictures of people here, but here’s an exception—an anonymous photo of my daughter, taken in our old stairwell in 2017. 👧🏻💕

Marnixstraat, Zaagpoortbuurt, at the border of “De Jordaan”.

The Caetsbaanbrug (Bridge 112) is a fixed bridge, spanning the Lauriergracht and connecting the Prinsengracht’s southwest quay. Its name comes from the historic “Kaatsbaanpad”, which existed here before the canal was dug. The bridge dates back to at least 1️⃣6️⃣2️⃣5️⃣, as seen on old maps. 🗺️

In 1704, a three-arched version was built, similar to nearby bridges. The current structure, made of wrought iron and buckled plates, was constructed in 1️⃣8️⃣9️⃣3️⃣. 🌉

Vijzelgracht 39 in Amsterdam is a building with a rich history. Built in the 17th century, and given a simple neck gable with plain, undecorated volutes in the 18th century. 🏠

On the first floor, where the Smiley flag is fluttering fierce, a 17th-century window arrangement is still intact. 🙂

The most famous yellow smiley face was designed in 1963 by Harvey Ball, an American graphic artist. The design featured a simple yellow circle with black dots for eyes and a curved smile. However, Ball never trademarked it, and the design spread widely. 🤨

The white building on the left is the facade of the third oldest bar in town. It first opened in 1️⃣6️⃣2️⃣6️⃣ and it’s still there. For over 15 years, a sign behind the windows read: “Not for sale or rent.”💰🤷🏻‍♂️

And yet, dozens, maybe even hundreds of people dropped a note in the mailbox, hoping to take over the legendary Amsterdam café Brandon. In vain…🧾😥

The old proprietors, the Brandon family, lived above the establishment, and as long as they were alive, it would remain closed. 🔒

The café is located at Keizersgracht (corner of Leliegracht), on the edge of the Jordaan. 🍺 🍷

This historic gable stone called “Die Gode Gehoorsaamt” meaning ‘He Who Obeys God’ is placed at Nieuwe Amstelstraat 68-74.

This stone, also known as “Iosue”, depicts the biblical passage from “Joshua 10”. It portrays the Battle of Gibeon, where Joshua conquers the southern part of Canaan from the Amorites. Yahweh intervened by sending large stones from the sky to strike down the enemy forces. ⚔️

Nieuwe Amstelstraat is a historic street, central to the city’s Jewish heritage. It houses the Jewish Historical Museum, showcasing Jewish culture and history in the Netherlands. The street also has several ‘Stolpersteine’ (stumbling stones) at several addresses, honoring Jewish residents deported and murdered during World War II. ✡️🕎

The bones of country Gulung Mardrulk, Gunlom waterfall creek, Kakadu NP #photography #landscape #rock #erosion #kakadu #monumental #EastCoastKin #Gunlom

Looking up-hill at the creek-bed of a seasonal high-rainfall waterfall creek running through a solid sandstone escarpment. There is currently very little water flowing, but the width of the bed and the degree of erosion clearly indicates that very large volumes of water run down in the wet season. The view shows a pool with large exposed sandstone rocks worn smooth by water, while further upstream is a rock wall several metres high, also worn in the centre, which blocks the view of the creek. Rough sandstone walls rise up on either side of the creek bed.
