Dolores mansion

Berny has posted:

This is the old mansion of the former mill "Dolores" (built 1854). Some people now found a home in its ruins. They have their own tower at least. But there are legends about hearing the sound of thick chains rubbing against the floor, the swaying of armchairs, and the footsteps of people in the nights. Some residents say they feel the lament of slaves whipped by their owners and other stories, linked to what was one of the important Cuban sugar mills.
The factory owners had a large number of slaves for the domestic and agricultural work of the cultivation of sugar cane and their industrial work, in addition there were coffee plantations and palm groves, symbols of a splendor based on mistreatment and oppression. As was the custom at the time, the masters built a beautiful house there in 1872, a reflection of a remarkable economy of which there are still elements of its architecture, very deteriorated. The most striking thing is still the tower, which had a huge iron bell, whose tolling called for the endowment of slaves, dispersed in the more than 1600 hectares that made up the heritage.

The sugar mill "Frank País" was located in the remote village Cayo Mambí. Not much is left, except this building, some ruins and the chimney, and a wonderful but rusty and decayed steam locomotive.

Great photography requires dedication, time and effort.
But above all there are costs involved as well.
Equipment, props and model fees, not to mention time,
are all "out-of-pocket" expenses for the artist.

Happy New Year!

You wish me a happy new year?
Do you think it's better than the ending?
Look at me!!
Instead of shooting on me with your camera
make my wheels turn around again!
It's not your business?
Then go to hell, ok there is none,
then at least - get out of my green,
and let me sleep!

this would be a bright day for all beings on earth.......(especially for green hippos of course). Sabu for president of the planet - let me serve you!!!

free education for all (also for hippos)
free medicine for all (reminds me of Cuba if I proceed in this list)
redistribution
equal rights
peace for all
free sharing of all knowhow and scientific progress
no weapons (except snouts of green hippos)
highest tax on all unproductive, low tax on productive work
no religion (except adoration of the Green Hippo)
no ethnicities, only the free beings of the planet earth
no borders
fair trade instead of free trade
fair wages (and no uncorrelated extreme bonuses etc.)
tightly controlled finance system
resocialization instead of punishment
full transparency, no secret services
no lobbies, no corruption, no establishment
all rules must be based on rationality
learning and progression instead of dogmas
more ethics classes
love, rationality, science and wisdom instead of greed and blind faith in the irrational
and I would Ipernity let survive

power to the people - and not to banks and multinational corporations!
to all free beings of the planet: suggestions for the list are welcome!!!!!
