Frederik’s Church (Frederiks Kirke), popularly known as The Marble Church (Marmorkirken) for its rococo architecture, is an Evangelical Lutheran church in Copenhagen, Denmark. The church forms the focal point of the Frederiksstaden district; it is located due west of Amalienborg Palace.  Though started in 1749, changes in ownership and financial constraints delayed completion until 1894.

Cheers,

First, I want to apologize for not being able to find the time to visit your posts these past few weeks. Too much travel, even for good things, has had me desperately wishing for down time. I know you all get that. The good news is that we got to visit the Obama Presidental Center and Museum last week. This image was taken from the Nelson Mandela Sky Room.

The Nelson Mandela Sky Room sits at the top of the 225-foot museum tower, which is on the 8th floor of the Museum Building. The Sky Room offers panoramic 360-degree views of Jackson Park, Lake Michigan, and Chicago’s South and West Sides, as well as the gorgeous Griffin Museum of Science and Industry (shown here). The building is one of two left standing from the 1983 World’s Columbian Exposition.

A Simple Arrangement

While walking along the shore of Pettit Lake in Idaho, I discovered this simple arrangement surrounded by the patterns created by thin ice.
