Ankara Opera Building

The Ankara Opera Building, which hosts performances by the Ankara State Opera and Ballet and Ankara State Theater was designed and built as an exhibition center and only later converted into an opera house. In 1933 the National Economy Community opened an international competition for the building stating that it had to be in modernist style. A proposal by Şevki Balmumcu received first prize and construction went ahead between 1933 and 1934. In 1948 Paul Bonatz converted the building into an opera house and his addition of traditional Turkish architectural details made it more “national.” Balmumcu was not consulted about the building’s renovation, which disappointed and professionally disturbed him for years to come. In the garden of the building there are sculptures of Leyla Gencer, Cüneyt Gencer and Muhsin Ertuğrul.

Günümüzde hem Ankara Devlet Opera ve Balesi temsillerine ev sahipliği yapan hem de Büyük Tiyatro adıyla Ankara Devlet Tiyatrosu için bir sahne olarak hizmet veren Ankara Opera Binası, ilk olarak bir sergi sarayı olarak inşa edildi, daha sonra opera binasına dönüştürüldü. Binanın tasarımına, Milli İktisat ve Tasarruf Cemiyeti’nin 1933’te açtığı uluslararası bir yarışma sonunda karar verildi. Yarışmanın duyurusunda, tasarımın modernist üslupta olması gerektiği özellikle belirtildi. Birinci seçilerek mimarı Şevki Balmumcu’ya büyük bir prestij kazandıran proje 1933-1934 yıllarında uygulandı. Paul Bonatz, 1948’te binayı işlevinden çok farklı olarak bir opera binasına çevirdi; Geleneksel Türk Mimarlığı’ndan detaylar ekleyerek binayı “millîleştirdi”. Tasarladığı binanın kendisine hiç danışılmadan, dönemin eğilimi olan İkinci Ulusal Mimarlık’a uygun hâle getirilmesi, Balmumcu’yu mesleki anlamda olumsuz etkiledi. Caddeye paralel uzanan ve birbirini dik kesen iki kitleden oluşan binanın bahçesinde Leyla Gencer, Cüneyt Gencer ve Muhsin Ertuğrul’un heykelleri bulunmaktadır.

Tronador mountain - Argentina

Tronador is an extinct stratovolcano in the southern Andes, located along the border between Argentina and Chile near the city of Bariloche. The mountain was named Tronador (Spanish for Thunderer) by locals in reference to the sound of falling seracs. With an altitude of 3,491 m, Tronador stands more than 1000 m above nearby mountains in the Andean massif, making it a popular mountaineering destination. Located inside two National Parks, Nahuel Huapi in Argentina and Vicente Pérez Rosales in Chile, Tronador hosts a total of eight glaciers, which are currently retreating due to warming of the upper troposphere.

Hat trick - Royal visitors in the Picture Gallery, Kilkenny Castle

A royal group in Kilkenny Castle, that beautiful castle in, arguably, Ireland's most beautiful city - but can we name this lot?

And indeed it seems we can. With thanks in particular to some our regular stalwart contributors (and newer blood), we have confirmation that this does capture a royal visit to the Marble City. The man-who-would-be-king (the Duke of York) and family visited the Butler/Ormonde family at their home in Kilkenny Castle in April 1899. While perhaps already on the road to confirmation, DannyM8 helped confirm the sometimes elusive trifecta of who, where, and when. An extract from the Irish Times summarises this "at home" gathering in the castle's noted picture gallery, and lists those present as the:
- Duke & Duchess of York (later George V & Queen Mary)
- Marquess & Lady Ormonde (James Butler & Elizabeth Grosvenor)
- Two other Ormondes (likely the Marquess' daughter & brother)
- Marshal & Lady Roberts (Frederick Roberts & Nora Bews)
- Viscount & Viscountess De Vesci (John Vesey & Evelyn Charteris)
- Lady Eva Dugdale (later Lady of the Bedchamber)
- Earl of Ava (Hamilton-Temple-Blackwood d.1900)
- Sir Charles Leopold Cust (baronet)
- Sir Francis De Winton
- Mr J. T Seigne JP (officer of Ormonde's estate?)
- and "Mr Moncrieffe"

We even see forebears of both the visitors and the hosts in the portraits to the rear...

Giraffe stands before tree in the Serengeti

The Serengeti ecosystem is a geographical region in Africa. It is located in north Tanzania and extends to south-western Kenya between latitudes 1 and 3 S and longitudes 34 and 36 E. It spans some 30,000 km2 (12,000 sq mi). The Serengeti hosts the largest terrestrial mammal migration in the world, which is one of the ten natural travel wonders of the world. The region contains one national park: Serengeti National Park and several game reserves. Serengeti is derived from the Maasai language, Maa; specifically, Serengit meaning Endless Plains. Approximately 70 larger mammal and some 500 avifauna species are found there. This high diversity in terms of species is a function of diverse habitats ranging from riverine forests, swamps, kopjes, grasslands and woodlands.[4] Blue Wildebeests, gazelles, zebras and buffalos are some of the commonly found large mammals in the region. Currently there is controversy surrounding a proposed road that is to be built through the Serengeti in Tanzania. The Serengeti ecosystem is a geographical region in Africa.
