So, with another Open House London finished, now comes the enjoyment of seeing how my photos came out and then sharing the better ones with you guys. I have to say Open House this year was the most enjoyable to date and I was lucky to share the experience with Flickr buddies The Green Album, Paul Stokes, Ed Bentley, lilypops1 and Dan Borg.
This is the atrium of One Finsbury Circus which can be found in the City of London. Open House has become so popular with budding photographers in recent years and whilst I do have some more quirky compositions from the locations visited I am going to post some of the most obvious ones first.
Many, many more to follow! :-)
Thought I'd follow yesterday's post of the bald eagle, an enduring symbol of freedom, with another symbol of freedom...
Former London Country/Green Line AEC Swift SMA1 seen in its second life with Groves of Sheffield, or the 'Nu-Life Window Bus Company' as they were christened in some circles.
It is seen in Sheffield in March 1987.
Next time a Sunrise steals your breath or a meadow of flowers leaves you speechless, remain that way. Say nothing and listen as Heaven whispers, "Do you like it? I did it just for you."

Genesis 1:12
And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

1 Spadina Crescent located on Spadina Avenue in Toronto, Ontario Canada north of College Street is one of the few roundabouts in Toronto that interrupts a major street; similar land plots include King's College Circle and Queen's Park. The site contains the One Spadina heritage building (designated under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act on March 17, 1976, which is currently under construction and is expected to open to the public in 2016. The original Gothic Revival structure was built in 1875 to house Knox College; it became associated with the University of Toronto twelve years later.
One Spadina has contained a variety of programs since its construction: a theological seminary, a military hospital, a penicillin factory, an eye bank, and multiple University of Toronto departments. However, its upcoming incarnation will soon harbor the John H. Daniels Faculty of Landscape, Architecture, & Design. Under the leadership of Nader Tehrani, principal of NADAAA, and collaborator Katie Faulkner, the revitalization of One Spadina will renew the existing south-facing 19th-century Gothic Revival building, and will develop the site’s northern section with a dramatic work of contemporary architecture. -Wikipedia

So i guess this is it.
As long there are no new parts to pimp
him up he´s ready to roll.
I think this car is propably a big reason why
i started building with LEGO again.
So he was in my head all the time
waiting to bust some ghosts.
About 2 days of work.
lots of chrome,
some chromebricks,
and a magical matrix,
that i had just the right parts,
made this creation happen.
Seriously i will never build
something again that i´m so proud of
to put on my shelf than this ECTO-1.
Zumbi what do you think?
São Paulo, September 2002.
AF-1 N-1014 seen from the 'island' of the carrier.
Navio Aérodromo (NAe) São Paulo was built in France between 1957 and 1960, and served in the French Navy as Foch. In September 2000, she was purchased by Brazil for US $30 million.
Managed to grab a close-up shot of this with the tilt shift lens. It's a pretty out there building design, by the late James Stirling, after whom the architectural Stirling Prize is named.
It was a pretty controversial post modern design back in the day, but it has been protected by Grade II listed status, so it can't be altered in any significant ways. As such, when it was made listed in 2016 it was (and still is I think) the youngest listed building in England.
I kind of like how off the wall it is, and as I mentioned in my last snap posted last summer, to me it's a bit like the 'Homer's Car' of building designs. Anyone unfamiliar with that reference have a look here:
