Tis the season, almost. For me it’s not really the season until Thanksgiving, or maybe a day or two before. But… This was the scene right outside my front door yesterday, so I had to take advantage. Who knows maybe we’ll make it our Christmas card this year. Or maybe you’ll want to make it yours. November 2008, Webster, NY Tamron 70-300 @300mm Macro Mode, f5.7, 1/40 ISO100 Hand Held, Canon Xsi (450d) Edited in Tiffen Dfx to add the White Rectangular Vignette. Non-vignetted version available upon request. A special thank you to the Autumn/Fall & Winter in the North-East USA group here on redbubb le for featuring this piece. I hope you didn’t change the group name just for me. ;-) As those of us in the North East know snow flies long before Autumn is technically over more often than not. I still consider this a fall picture, despite it’s contents. This is only my second featured work here on redbubble, thanks again to the Autumn/Fall & Winter in the North-East USA group, not only for the featured nod, but for putting up with me not following the rules on my first bunhc of submissions. I have learned to read now. ;-)

It is Austria’s first neo-Gothic sacred building and was consecrated in 1869. The church fascinates with artful furnishing and design, its two dominant towers, both 70 meters high, make it an impressive landmark. Architect Bücher also proved his sense of humor: the gothic gargoyles on the outside of the building caricature the German emperor Willhelm I and Bismarck. / The church’s neo-Gothic interior invites the visitor to go on a treasure hunt for pieces of art that had been created for the church throughout the centuries. The white marbled neo-Gothic high altar is framed by four embroidered baroque tapestries. They were all artfully fabricated in the monastery’s own school for embroidery. The tapestries show the abbots’ coats of arms, depict saints and portray a colorful variety of flowers and animals.Above the chancel the visitor will see a larger than life gothic cross, made by Andreas Lackner in 1518. A replica of Admont’s famous Madonna is placed beside the side altar, the original statue (dating back to 1310) can be found in the province museum Joanneum in Graz. / The altar dedicated to the Virgin Mary is decorated with a baroque painting of Maria Immaculate, done by Martino Altomonte in 1726. The painting is framed with 15 rosary medallions by Joseph Stammel, the abbey’s sculptor in the Baroque. Around 1755 and 1756 Stammel also carved the variety of figures for Admont’s Christmas manger in the manger altar. The manger, which is traditionally only opened around Christmas (24.12. – 02.02.) and remains closed throughout the rest of the year, is one of the most beautiful and renowned ones in Austria. Since its foundation in 1074, i.e. since almost one thousand years, Admont Benedictine Monastery has collected and preserved cultural goods. In this respect the library has a special position. This library is one of the most important cultural properties of our country and is one of the largest late Baroque works of art in Europe. Perhaps a little overenthusiastically but at the same quite justifiably, since the early 19th century the Admont library has been called the “eighth wonder of the world”. It represents a repository of knowledge containing examples of the artistic and historical development of books over the centuries – from the manuscripts of the medieval Admont writing school over the collection of incunabula (early printed books) to the fully developed printing process. As a work of art, the library should be viewed as a whole in which the various genres (architecture, frescoes, sculptures, written and printed matter) blend into one work – in the final analysis, the central place of books in the history of the development of the Benedictine Order. The late Baroque library, completed in 1776, was commissioned by Abbot Matthäus Offner (reigned 1751-1779) and built by the Graz Master Builder Josef Hueber (1715-1787). Hueber was imbued with the ideas of the Enlightenment: “As with the mind, light should also fill the room”. With a length of 70 m, a width of 14 m and 11 m in height (12.7 m in the central cupola) and divided into three, this room is the largest monastery library room in the world. The Austrian National Library in Vienna served Hueber as a pattern. The seven ceiling frescoes created by the 80-year-old Bartolomeo Altomonte (1694-1783) in the summer months of the years 1775 and 1776 also breathe the spirit of the Enlightenment. They show the steps in man’s exploration of thinking and speaking from the sciences to Divine Revelation in the central cupola. The bookcases under this cupola alone contain editions of the Bible and the Church Fathers, those in the North side room theological literature and those in the South room all the other subjects. The monastery sculptor Josef Stammel (1695-1765), one of the most important Baroque sculptors, created the extensive carvings in the room. Particularly famous is “The Four Last Things”, a group of four over-lifesize presentations of Death, the Last Judgement, Heaven and Hell. The Admont library is a historical monument to book culture with an importance far beyond the region. At the same time it offers equally valuable and exhaustive source material of the surrounding country. The total collection of books comprises some 200,000 volumes. The most valuable treasures are the more than 1,400 manuscripts (the earliest from the 8th century) and the 530 incunabula (early printed books before 1500).

It was founded in the year 1074 by Archbishop Gebhard of Salzburg and is thus the oldest extant foundation in Styria. The Admont Benedictines attempt to live by the Rule of St. Benedict (“house rules” for a monastic community), which through its breadth and depth has achieved much of important over the centuries and indubitably offers orientation for the future. The rhythm of their life is stamped by prayer, the fulfilment of manifold tasks in pastoral care, education, culture and in social areas and through the personal deepening of their lives. In this God is always the central point. This is especially true of the life style of the Admont Benedictines whereby the church is seen as the centre of the foundation. In addition to serving 26 parishes, the Monastery runs a nursing home in Frauenberg, a secondary school and further businesses which have roughly 500 secular employees. The main cultural attraction of the Monastery is the Baroque library and the new large museum. Nearness to God and the faith that determines the life of the monks can be felt throughout the whole Monastery grounds. This is also true of the library and museum and equally for the gardens around our house. Thus Admont Monastery is a spiritual, cultural and economic centre of important far beyond the region.

A closeup of the eve of this barn reveals the date marker (1835), set in stone. A careful inspection will find two of the barn’s feathered “tenants” taking advantage of a very mild December day. This photo was taken just this afternoon, Friday, December 4th, with a Canon EOS 10D DSLR camera through a Canon EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L telephoto zoom lens at the 190mm focal length. The shutter speed was 1/125th sec at f/9.5. The camera’s ISO was set to 100. A Manfrotto tripod was used with a Manfrotto “pistol-grip” head. Your comments are always welcome!

The historic stone barn in Oval, Pennsylvania is decorated for Christmas. The wreaths are hung with beautiful red ribbons to brighten them up. If you look very closely, you can see the birds taking advantage of a mild December day on the barn. State and Federal Rehabilitation Tax dollars have been set aside for the all the historic buildings in Oval, PA. I am certain that this stone barn must have been included in that historic district. This beautiful barn is located on RT-44, not far from Jersey Shore, PA. It is still in use and is in wonderful condition. This photo was taken with a Canon EOS 10D DSLR camera through a Canon EF 35-350mm f/3.5-5.6L telephoto zoom lens at the 35mm focal length. The shutter speed was 1/180th sec at f/9.5. The camera’s ISO was set to 100. A Manfrotto tripod was used. Your comments are always welcome!
