<p>De Sint-Amanduskerk is de kerk van de parochie Sint-Amandus van het Belgische dorp Hooglede. De kerk telt een schat aan kunstwerken. Achteraan in de kerk bevindt zich de grafzerk van Victor van Dixmude, gestorven in 1511.<br />
<br />
Geschiedenis<br />
In de loop van de eeuwen heeft de kerk in Hooglede grondige veranderingen gekend. Alvorens er sprake was van een kerk, was er op die locatie een bedehuis aanwezig met een zadeldak (voor 1000). Omstreeks 1200 werd er op hetzelfde grondgebied een romaanse kerk gebouwd door de monniken van de Sint-Amandusabdij van Doornik.<br />
<br />
Nadat een brand de kerk vernietigde, werd er in 1590 een nieuwe kerk gebouwd in de gotische stijl. Deze herstellingswerken eindigden in 1618.<br />
<br />
In 1828 begon de eerste ingrijpende verbouwingsfase. Het houten gewelf werd vervangen door een tongewelf en de kerk kreeg een neoclassicistisch interieur.<br />
<br />
Omwille van plaatsgebrek werd de kerk rond 1870 in neogotische stijl uitgebreid. Ook werd de toren naar voren gebracht in 1871. Tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog werd dit gebouw verwoest, maar in de jaren 20 werd het opnieuw opgebouwd. Ook in 1980, 1985 en 1993 vonden er herstellingswerken plaats.</p>

<p>Since ancient times, equestrianism has been a passion and a culture for people, especially equestrian enthusiasts. The relationship between horse and rider goes beyond movement—it is based on trust, patience and countless moments of silent understanding. Each step tells a story and each photo preserves a memory worth living.<br />
<br />
Equestrian photography is a photography more than action. There is a connection between them and the dedication, elegance and unique personality of all horses and riders. Whether it’s racing, training, or saddle riding and entertainment at any time especially the Golden Hour, every photo reflects the passion behind the journey.<br />

<p>Main road approximately north-south, 'up and down' La Manga del Mar Menor in Cartagena province (Murcia region, southeast Spain). I took this picture from the upper floor of a seaside hotel. <br />
<br />
The linearity of the scene drew my attention to what might otherwise be a quite ordinary picture. In particular, I liked the combination of lane markings, zebra crossings and overall grid effect on this stretch of 'carretera'. The matching blue tourist train carriage tops were a bonus, while the palm trees near the turn-off to the hotel added a tropical touch.</p>
