The octagonal coffers of the cupola of San Bernardo alle Terme (the "Baths" here are those of Diocletian), sunlight entering through the oculus. Statues and inscriptions on the wall in the foreground, with the unfortunate addition of some loudspeakers. Digitally toned black and white film photograph.

Visiting.

I had a friend living there, went to see him.

Indeed, beautiful.

I haven't much merit as I took a picture exactly there – but long before you. (Not edited yet but coming up…)

Passerelle St.-Vincent à Lyon.

Bicycles chained up for the night on the walkway. A street lamp throws sharp shadows, a kind of tent is in the background. Digital color photograph.

Geweldige thread, prachtige foto’s!

Vous aimez vraiment ces bittes sur les trottoirs, j'en ai vu plein vos photos. 😉

Yeah, some maggot, nothing "marine" to it.

Intéressante ambiance.

I doubt such a bird exists. Have you checked?

I like that!

The somewhat battered table gives the cup a painterly quality.

A group of city workers, in fluorescent red gear, busy on the walkway. Lighted storefronts (including the now defunct Photo-Hall) and passersby in the background. Digital color photograph.

Interesting chaos!

I like the place you chose, and your edit of the bricks & stones.

But much less how you treated that poor sky.

Minimalist misty seascape of poles and nets, and their reflections, of fisheries near the island of Murano. Digitally toned black and white film photograph.

I couldn't find a serious source, but there are some indications on the Web that it's an African hyena mask. 🤔

In 1843, the Minister of the Interior, the count Duchâtel, accedes to the request of duke Decazes [to replace the existing artworks], Grand referendum of the Chamber of Peers, which judges the female nudes of the garden of " very bad taste". 😀

Cool portrait!

The oscillation is used to _calibrate_ the torsion balance (if you want numerical results, and not just a proof of concept), not for the Cavendish experiment per se which is done by measuring the _maximum deflection_, i. e. a static endstate.

The text you linked to also says so.

For those interested, the guy at Fourmilab did the experiment in his basement: www.fourmilab.ch/gravitation/...

There are no "oscillations" involved in the Cavendish experiment.

There's another interesting Klemperer, Victor, who wrote a fascinating book, The Language of the Third Reich: A Philologist's Notebook

Well done!

Notice the horizontal band of greasy fingerprints on the mirror, at about my head's height. 😀
