  Curious Foal
  by Carmen Mandel-Cesáreo

  “While travelling in the countryside, we stopped by a farm to visit the equine family. A beautiful mare of a deep chestnut coat was pacing with her pretty foal. / / The little one, as curious as only he could be, glanced at me sweetly under the watchful, yet gentle, eye of his mum.” / / / / Artist statement / My photographs are not enhanced; they represent the true nature and colours of the subjects as captured by the lens. I never lure my animated subjects to come close to me: spontaneity is the key. / / This is an original uncropped image. / / / / ============================================================= / All proceeds from the sale of this piece of artwork and the rest of my equine photography in all my galleries will be donated in equal ways to the following equine charities: / / Equus Sanctuary Dedicated to saving the equine family and enriching their lives. / / Shiloh Horse Rescue Dedicated to rescuing and rehabilitating abused, neglected, injured, unwanted, and slaughter-bound horses of all types. / / Redwings Horse Sanctuary Care for and protect horses, ponies, donkeys and mules in dire need. / —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-——- / / Carmen, creator of Art for Conservation / “Equine Beauty” – New Calendar Series 2008 / / / / © Copyright Carmen Mandel-Cesáreo / / Browse my new calendar series with proceeds aiding equine rescue charities. / /

  Crocodile Parque La Venta
  by aguakina

  She’s a Morelet Crocodile, an endangered species which is present in the swamps of Yucatan peninsula (South-Est Mexico, Guatemala). Their numbers diminish day after day due to the reduction of the size of their habitat, and illegal hunting. When she was captured 30 years ago, she was already measuring 3 meters from head to tail. Nobody knows her age for sure, but she should be well over 40 years old now. You can admire that beauty in the natural reserve park La Venta, in Villahermosa. Her name is Papillon as a reference to the 60’s movie starring Steve Mc Queen. She was named that way because she has already escaped a few times from her pool, during past floodings!

  The Venta bridge
  by marco10

  The old Venta bridge was built in one year time from 1873 – 1874. It was built under the order of Kurzeme governor Paul von Lilienfeld and its expenses were 120 thousand roubles. The bridge has eight powerful piers, seven brick vaults join them. The length of the bridge is 500 feet, width 36 feet ( 1 foot = 30, 48 cm). At night six old lanterns are light up the bridge. The author of the bridge project and supervising engineer was structural engineer F.Staprani but the author of all complex of bridge – the architect O. Dīce. Russian army, retreating from Kuldīga in August 1915 exploded two spans of bridge. They were reconstructed in 1926 with a material of concrete. The ancient cobble stone from 1958 is covered with asphalt but the lantern lights are renewed in 1972. The old Venta bridge is the monument of architecture and technique of State Heritage. It is the longest road transport bridge in the world built from the bricks. Ventas Rumba and the bridge – they both have become not only the symbols of Kuldīga but all Latvia. Much more than its practical meaning – to join the banks of the river Venta is its symbolic meaning. The bridge is the creator of town’s image and impersonates the proud of Kuldīga inhabitants of their town and people’s achievement. To show a special honour for Kuldīga guests, it is used to wait them at the bridge and take into the town, crossing the bridge on foot
