5000 - Falcon
My first Falcon left me really happy, it was amazing. I applied a different technique, that allowed me to finish the puzzle in 2 1/2 weeks. Thanks to Lars, whose pictures of Archiduke Leopold was of great help to see the pattern!

5000 Launceston Castle under the arch at Barrow Rd Bristol...although lacking a front number plate 5000 still has at least 1 nameplate left and is wearing that coat of grime so prevalent towards the end...this is June 1964 and 5000 has but a few weeks left.
Cotton is a soft, fluffy staple fiber that grows in a boll, or protective capsule, around the seeds of cotton plants of the genus Gossypium. The fiber is almost pure cellulose. Under natural conditions, the cotton bolls will tend to increase the dispersion of the seeds.
The plant is a shrub native to tropical and subtropical regions around the world, including the Americas, Africa, and India. The greatest diversity of wild cotton species is found in Mexico, followed by Australia and Africa.Cotton was independently domesticated in the Old and New Worlds. The English name derives from the Arabic (al) qutn قُطْن, which began to be used circa 1400 AD.The Spanish word, "algodón", is likewise derived from the Arabic.
The fiber is most often spun into yarn or thread and used to make a soft, breathable textile. The use of cotton for fabric is known to date to prehistoric times; fragments of cotton fabric dated from 5000 BC have been excavated in Mexico and the Indus Valley Civilization (modern day Pakistan and some parts of India). Although cultivated since antiquity, it was the invention of the cotton gin that so lowered the cost of production that led to its widespread use, and it is the most widely used natural fiber cloth in clothing today.
I took these Photographs of Boonton Fire Trucks at a Truck Show in Boonton, New Jersey on September 12, 1992. According to the sign in the center of my photograph (Number 1) it looks like the Truck Show was sponsored by SCERBO Buick, Chevy, Olds ?
Disclaimer: These photos were taken on September 12, 1992 with my Minolta Maxxim 5000 35 mm SLR with Color Print Film, when I was just learning photograph, so they were very soft & grainy. I scanned the Negative, and used Photoshop Elements™ to correct the Exposure and Saturation to generate the Digital Digital Image, presented here on flickr™.
In the Odakyu Railyard in Sagami-ono. The company is starting to recycle the cars into scrap metal. Earlier this year, a few HiSi met the same fate!
Yesterday I noticed that my photostream has been viewed 5000 times. It may not be that big a deal compared to a lot of people here at Flickr, but for me it's really great. So I just wanted to say a big thank you to all of you who have viewed my photos and commented on them! It means a lot to me. :)
My first freight train of 2014, not a bad way to get things started! This is ZLCLT 05 blasting uphill through Ravenna on the old SP Saugus Line. Leading the way is UP 7964, the 5000th GE Evolution Series engine.

I made this image to celebrate getting 5000 fans on facebook, which I never thought for a second i would get! I painted 5000 stars in to the sky, it took me ages but I wanted to count each one. I was also experimenting with some light trails, that pesky pen tool is quite hard to get right!
Finished!
Total time 72h 48min, which makes average 48 seconds per piece (not counting 5h 15min spent on sorting). I'm satisfied with the amount of time it took me, considering it is quite a busy puzzle. Also, I wasn't trying to rush through it, but let myself enjoy assembling it.
This Ravensburger version is titled "Historical Map Of The World" without mentioning the author, but it is clearly the same as Clementoni 6000 "Magna Carta Mundi 1670" by Nicolaus Ioannis Vischerius, even though Clementoni version is more colourful and with red borders.
