Christmas Time - 3D Santa Claus Wreath - by Canon

Photobucket

PhotobucketWreaths are used at Christmas time to decorate places like entrances to homes. Various theories offer explanations of wreath's origins: in terms of religious significance, the holly leaves may symbolize Christ's sufferings on the cross and the red berries the blood of Christ. Another theory is that evergreens were used to protect against evil due to their strong sterilizing and antibacterial effects, while the berries and ears of barley served as talismans promoting abundant harvests, making the original wreath something of a good-luck charm. Today, the wreath generally serves a merely decorative purpose. This Santa Claus wreath features an attractive, whimsical Santa Claus flying through the sky on Christmas Eve. - Canon

Chuson-ji Temple Konjiki-do (Golden Hall) in Japan - by Canon


Photobucket


PhotobucketAlong with Byodo-in Temple Ho-o-do (Phoenix Hall), Chuson-ji Temple Konjiki-do (Golden Hall) is one of the most famous structures from the late Heian period. It is a brilliant Buddhist temple with a hall that is embossed with gold leaf on both the interior and exterior. It was built in 1124 by Oshu Fujiwara-shi (the Northern Fujiwara clan) as a corner of Chuson-ji in Hiraizumi, Nishiiwai District, Iwate Prefecture. It is a small Buddhist temple measuring about 5.5 meters on each side. It originally sat outdoors in the open air, but it is now enclosed in a wooden building that was built around it to prevent further deterioration. Chuson-ji Temple Konjiki-do was listed as a World Heritage Site in 2011. - Canon




PhotobucketO Japão possui ao menos 14 locais reconhecidos como Patrimônio Mundial pela Unesco (Organização das Nações Unidas para a Educação, Ciência e Cultura). Um destes pontos entrou na lista em junho passado: Hiraizumi.
Hiraizumi é uma das muitas cidades com templos históricos do Japão. Fundada no século 12, era um centro político e comercial na região norte do arquipélago. A Unesco reconheceu o legado da família Fujiwara, que rivalizava Kyoto, então capital, e estabeleceu uma central de poder com as melhores técnicas artísticas e arquitetônicas da época. O sinal mais significativo do passado de poder local é o templo de Chusonji, com peças elaboradas de um rico design do auge de Hiraizumi. Konjikido, literalmente traduzido como Hall Dourado, foi a única estrutura original a sobreviver por guerras e incêndios. Konjikido é toda coberta por folhas douradas por dentro e por fora, cheia de estátuas de Buda no altar. Apesar e estar na região noroeste do Japão, felizmente não foi afetada pelo terremoto deste ano. - folha.uol.com.br

Star Trek`s Sovereign Class Starship - by Ikenohata

Photobucket


PhotobucketThe Sovereign class is a class of Starfleet starship in the fictional Star Trek science fiction franchise. The Sovereign-class USS Enterprise-E was designed by Herman Zimmerman and illustrator John Eaves for Star Trek: First Contact. As of 2373, the Enterprise-E is the most advanced Starfleet ship to have been built, and is the Federation flagship as late as 2379. The Sovereign-class Enterprise has an elliptical saucer section attached to the central mass with two symmetrical nacelles running parallel to the main hull. The bridge, impulse engines, main shuttlebay, lifeboats, and phaser arrays are on the dorsal surface of the saucer section while additional phaser arrays, lifeboats, torpedo launchers, and the captain's yacht occupy the ventral side. The engineering section features the main navigational deflector, two large warp nacelles, the warp reactor, and torpedo launchers. The ship is armed with both photon torpedoes and quantum torpedoes. - Wikipedia


Classe Sovereign é a sucessora da Enterprise D. Foi cenário dos filmes StarTrek VIII-First Contact, StarTrek IX-Insurrection e StarTrek X-Nêmesis, onde trava sua batalha final contra a nave de guerra do planeta Remo: Cimitarra. - getnuts.net.br

Star Trek`s Akira Class Starship Paper Model - by Zosho


Photobucket

PhotobucketThe Akira-class starship is a class of Starfleet starship in the Star Trek fictional universe, appearing first in Star Trek: First Contact and subsequently in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine and Star Trek: Voyager. Akira-class starships are seen in several Federation battle fleets across the series. Ships of the Akira class are large vessels composed of a circular, saucer-shaped primary hull with a low-slung navigational deflector and two beams rising from the top heading aft; the beams attach to an arch that supports two warp nacelles at its ends and a weapons pod that fires photon torpedoes at its zenith. The main bridge, primary dorsal phaser strip and lifeboats are embedded into the saucer. The ventral saucer is occupied with the navigational deflector, a photon torpedo tube and additional lifeboats. - Wikipedia

PhotobucketA Classe Akira aparece em Jornada nas Estrelas VII, Primeiro Contato, em vários episódios de Deep Space 9 relacionados a Guerra do Dominion, e no episódio "Message in a Bottle" de Voyager. Algumas cenas mostrando a Akira próxima a classes de naves cujo tamanho é conhecido mostram que seu comprimento está entre 300 e 400 metros. A Classe Akira supostamente pode ralizar a separação da seção disco. Essa idéia não foi retomada, mas a classe fez sua primeira aparição na dramática batalha contra os borgs no Setor 001, reaparecendo depois em diversas batalhas contra o Dominion, e em Voyager. - www.aumanack.com
