Haha, sorry Zaqarbal. I meant to reply to sodacake's posting.
I hate it that this forum never tells when there has already been a posting when you post a new one.

Latest animal photos: a black swan.

How can anyone (apart from giraffes) have such a long neck??

No problem.

Yesterday I was "experimenting" around that tubular bridge. It's a new bridge over river Manzanares, designed by Dominique Perrault (a French architect). Very interesting. I like how light can change its aspect. For instance, here its silver coating shines:

But, here, it looks traslucent:

There must be a mathematical design in it. Those lines look like waves:

There are some fountains next to the bridge, with several water jets. Like these:

Some water remained on the ground, and the sunset was reflected in it. So I got close to it and took some photos from ground level. I think the results are ones of the best pictures I've ever taken:

Great photos, Zaqarbal! I like the look of that bridge. Very intriguing. I especially like the last photo, with the full reflection in the water.

I never even knew black swans existed. I thought it was going to be a signet. That sir, is something.

I first saw a black swan four days ago at a public park, when I took those pictures. The black swan is a typical species from the Antipodes. Funny to see them here, at the far side of the World, especially considering that Australia and New Zealand are full of Spanish sheeps and rabbits.

Well it's been used for a lot of things througout time, but it's an outlook thingy in the first place.
It's this
