On Gordon Point are the remains of Fort Ballance, a defence site that was once Wellington's primary source of protection against sea-borne invasion. Built in 1885 following fears of an impeding war with Russia, Fort Ballance is one of the best preserved of a string of nineteenth century coastal defences constructed to protect New Zealand from a naval attack. In 1885, the Government, reluctantly acknowledging that they could not rely solely on Britain for protection, commissioned engineer Major Henry Cautley to design a series of fortifications to protect the country's main ports.
Fort Ballance, Wellington's main fortification, was built by the Armed Constabulary, day labourers and prison inmates. Erected on the former site of Te Mahanga Pa the fort was named after the then Minister of Defence, John Ballance [1839-1893]. In the event of war Fort Ballance was to prevent enemy ships entering the inner harbour and provide covering fire for the minefield between Gordon Point and Ward Island. Supported by positions at Kau Point and Point Halswell, when fully armed, Fort Ballance had more guns than any other fort in New Zealand.

This is all very nice! But is that all? Do our ‘demonstrations’ have any real effect on what is happening? Of course I acknowledge an enormous outpouring of support in Britain, in offering support to Ukrainian refugees, and this demo does show our concern but are we doing enough?
In 2009, the United Nations General Assembly proclaimed 22 April as International Mother Earth Day. In so doing, Member States acknowledged that the Earth and its ecosystems are our common home, and expressed their conviction that it is necessary to promote Harmony with Nature in order to achieve a just balance among the economic, social and environmental needs of present and future generations. The same year, the General Assembly adopted its first resolution on Harmony with Nature.

I believe its been acknowledged that this summer has been one of the hottest and driest in recent time with June, July and the start of August particularly dry. Arriving in London on Friday 10 of August in shorts and t-shirt we were welcomed at Kings Cross by rain. Things didn't get any better at London Bridge on our way to our hotel in Greenwich following a wet trip up the Shard. The new canopies show off their benefits at a very wet station. The rooves do make some nice curves and the concourse area is certainly a vast improvement on before.
Two car 466021 heads its train south towards Dartford, most likely with two, four car 465s tucked up behind.
Sunday morning, Beefy and I headed out to somewhere I had not been in a while; the historic Bow Valley Ranch house in Fish Creek Park in southeast Calgary.
There is a ton of history to this place, and I have been visiting it and the surrounding area for basically my whole life; many lovely nature paths start (and end) at this location, and it is just a lovely place to explore!
Here is some information about the house from one of the various websites providing information about it, although you can also get a detailed rundown of the history of the place from the helpful staff at the visitor centre just down the path from the house:
"William Roper Hull cultivated the social life of an elegant class of ranchers whose lifestyle was unique to the time period in which he lived. The Bow Valley Ranche became the focal point for their gatherings. When the original log home from the Government Supply Farm burned down in 1896, Hull built the Bow Valley Ranche House. The Ranche House represented the height of country luxury and grace. Hull wanted a home that would allow him and his wife Emme to entertain on a lavish scale and be a fitting monument to his financial success. Mr. Hull hired James Llewellyn Wilson, Calgary's most prominent architect, to design the house. The chosen design was simple, yet elegant and sophisticated. Wilson based it on the T-plan, common at the turn of the century. The floor plan, exterior design and landscaping provided front areas of leisure and back areas for labour. In 1896, The Ranche House cost about $4,000 to build. It has been acknowledged to be the finest country home in the Territories during that era and is a unique piece of architecture. Under the ownership of W.R. Hull, the ranch also became known for its irrigation system and crop production. Hay production jumped from 82 to 1,089 tonnes within three years and some oat crops stood 3 metres tall. Newspapers and reporters often referred to the ranch as Hull's Irrigation Farm. "
The Ranch House is now a lovely, high end restaurant, called The Ranche (the food is very good there!), which seems to be doing well, so it seems this lovely piece of our history will be around for quite some time yet!
I hope you are all having a wonderful Tuesday so far!
1937 Packard Twelve Coupe
Ironically, many of the greatest automobiles of the classic era arose from the depths of the Great Depression. The Packard Twelve had few peers and was acknowledged as one of the finest automobiles of its time, and Packard’s relentless and careful refinement ensured that these hand-built “Senior” Packard models continue to rank among the most highly prized and sought-after classics today.
By the 1930s, the Packard Motor Car Company already possessed a wealth of experience with 12-cylinder engines. Their first, the Twin Six of 1916-1923, had become almost synonymous with the genre and was phased out in favor of the simpler and more advanced Single Eight that was introduced in 1924. While the Single Eight set new standards for smoothness and agility during the late 1920s, the rekindled multi-cylinder wars had resumed in earnest by the onset of the 1930s in Detroit. Cadillac introduced both its V-16 in 1930 and its V-12 in 1931, while Auburn, Marmon, Pierce-Arrow and even Franklin had their own 12-cylinder engines in the wings for 1932.
Resurrecting the “Twin Six” name, Packard met this new competitive threat with a completely new engine. A large-displacement V-12 design with a 67-degree cylinder-bank angle, development of this new power unit was the happy by-product of an aborted front-wheel drive development project. As released, the new Twelve initially displaced 445 cubic inches, 20 more than the old Twin Six, while developing 75 percent more power. In 1933, the model name was simplified to “Packard Twelve,” and two years later, engine displacement rose to 473 cubic inches, and output now climbed accordingly to 175 brake horsepower.
The weight of the car is 5,255 pounds, and the original list price was $3,420 - a tidy sum for the period. This top-of-the-line Packard was purchased by its current owner from the Columbus, Ohio Packard dealership in 1955.
Overall, the Packard Twelve was a conservative car with finely tailored lines, elegant appointments, a refined chassis and a whisper-quiet, 12-cylinder engine. All-new bodies introduced for 1935 offered true envelope styling with the body, hood, fenders and running boards incorporated into a smooth design. In addition, increased horsepower and improvements in suspension and steering, along with improved engine mounts, provided ease of operation and dramatically improved passenger comfort.
While the 1936 models were virtually unchanged, the Fifteenth Series of 1937 brought a comprehensive series of mechanical improvements. Most notably, the introduction of “Safe-T-Flex” independent front suspension, based on the sound design of the junior One-Twenty, debuted on the “Senior” Packard models. Other improvements included the adoption of hydraulic brakes, disc-type steel wheels and the elimination of the Bijur central chassis lubrication system.
While 1937 was a good year for Packard, just 1,300 Twelves were produced, all but ensuring their place among the rarest and most desired masterpieces of the Classic Era.

On a personal note, Dayton, Ohio holds a special place in my heart. My Dad, a “professional” road driver for C/F (Consolidated Freightways) ran Chicago to Dayton for about ten years. As I remember he liked the “Dayton run”. Being one of the high seniority drivers at C/F, I recall he bid for the Dayton haul several years in a row. He favored not only the “run” but would speak well of the city. It impressed him as a clean and “well laid out” city.
I remember as a kid, a family vacation we took to Dayton - to the Wright Patterson Air Force base museum. I loved airplanes and it was a real thrill for me. My Mom - oh not so much but she enjoyed seeing Dayton and she enjoyed dining out in the evenings. I suppose you could say Mom just enjoyed going places as a family and seeing the C/F terminal where her husband traveled to and from so many times - in the hot blistering summers and the cold and many times, dangerous icy winters. Or maybe she was just scouting out the area where C/F put the drivers up for the night to see if there were any suspicious looking honky tonks in the area.
And Dayton has another significance for me. The headquarters of the corporation that I worked for the last five years of my career, Dayton-Superior Corporation is located in Dayton.
This past September when my wife and I traveled to Dayton for the Dayton Concours d’Elegance Carillon Park I never got to see the Dayton-Superior headquarters nor, of course was there anything remaining of the old Consolidate Freightways terminal as C/F had gone out of business years before. The day, a Sunday, September 17th, dawned as a beautiful day - in the low 80’s, partly sunny and no humidity. Although the Concours event turned out to be a bust, the day was saved when we left and drove over to the Packard Museum located on Ludlow Street, the south side of town . Even the area, the street conveyed a feeling of “days of yore” - devoid of all cars and people. The day at this museum I wish I could have kept sealed in a bottle and lived over and over. Probably not much fun for my wife but she never complained. Where did I find this girl? For me, however, the afternoon spent taking pictures inside the museum was like a kid being in a candy store. The staff was extremely accommodating, allowing me to use my tripod and basically giving me free run of the place. I loved the look and “feel” and even the smell of the place. The building is actually the original location of the Citizen’s Motorcar Company, a Packard dealership dating back to 1917.
Hope you enjoy (as much as I enjoyed taking this and many more pictures at this museum)…………..
OK folks, here is yet another installment of the ongoing adventures with Disneyland Security...
Before I get into the details that surround this particular photograph, I would like to acknowledge that some people have differing opinions on the rights and the privileges of photographers taking pictures at Disneyland... I understand that some folks are passionate about their rights to photograph whatever they want. I understand that some folks are passionate about preserving photography in general at Disney Parks, and feel that taking pictures like this is going to be the end of tripods at Disneyland. I understand that EVERYONE has a different opinion about their rights to use a tripod at a Disney Park, or in particular, Disneyland, INCLUDING Disneyland Security and Castmembers.
I respect all of the differing opinions, and present my adventures here as a reference for all that may read them...
Also note that I have had far more positive, pleasant, and friendly encounters with Security at Disneyland than I have had unpleasant. Again, I post this encounter so that others may be aware of the situation and avoid similar encounters...
For documentary purposes, here is an excerpt from the Disneyland FAQ website that offers this information about photography under "What items are NOT permitted at Disneyland"
disneyland.disney.go.com/faq/parks/
What items are not permitted within Disneyland Park or Disney California Adventure Park?
Items not permitted include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Professional cameras and recording equipment. Reporters must make prior arrangements with Disneyland Resort Media Relations.
• Folding tripod stands that can fit inside a standard backpack are permitted.
So there we were, Me and my Son Justin, Ryan Pastorino, and Don Sullivan (visiting from Florida) setup with (3) tripods photographing the submarine lagoon at approximately 11:30PM on a night that the Park closes at Midnight...It was very quiet, with virtually nobody around, and no pedestrian traffic to speak of. I was running a little later than the other guys with my brackets because I was waiting for a submarine to cruise through. As Ryan and Don were breaking down their setups, they pointed out to me that security was watching us...Looking over my shoulder, I saw FOUR security CMs looking right at me from 20 yards away, standing near the Matterhorn Queue...Looking back to Ryan and Don, they were packed up and moving out while my last exposure cooked off just as the four security guards surrounded me and Justin...
"No tripods are allowed in the Park." One of them says, standing right next to me.
As I break down my setup, I politely say, "I thought the posted rules state that collapsible tripods are allowed?"
"Yours is too big" He says as I collapse the legs and put the tripod in my bag...
"No professional equipment is allowed" He continues...
Seeing that it was pointless to continue this conversation as they were already in an aggressive stance, I quietly picked up and headed into Tomorrowland where Ryan and Don had gone...I had four Security guys in tow walking right behind me.
The Security guys stopped 20 yards away from us as I walked up to Ryan and Don. We were all puzzled by the reaction from security, but Don was really looking forward to taking some night shots of Tomorrowland so he began to setup his tripod. Immediately we were approached again by Security who gave us the same spiel...We still could not understand the aggressive stance from Security in a virtually empty Park, and 15 minutes BEFORE closing. We decided to press for answers and got a little more info...
"You were taking pictures of the Monorails" (Huh? We were not...)
"We feel like a target since 911"
And my favorite:
"You guys can take any picture you want as long as you don't use a tripod" (???)
Again seeing the hopelessness of the situation, we left BEFORE midnight shadowed all the way by multiple Security guys. Don wanted to stop into City Hall and complain, which of course did not do any good either. Disappointed, we all left the Park.
So this is the photo that Security interrupted...It is not quite what I had planned due to the rush at the end...The sky was overcast, but fortunately at this end of the park there is some cooler lighting going into the haze that I was able to work with, therefore negating that ugly orange-brown cast...
Remember:
Tripods may be allowed inside the Park, but it doesn't mean you can use them...Security can and will interpret this rule as they see fit.

Mr. Wu made sure to acknowledge the large group of ladies who came to visit him on 3-19-2016. The PandaFandom Annual Convention was in town for the weekend. His mom Bai Yun was not feeling well that weekend so Mr. Wu and his Dad Gao Gao had to carry the load of entertaining more than 30 panda crazy women. The guys did a great job of entertaining us.
Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven.

I couldn’t let any series of photos of live in Australia go without acknowledging the important and iconic role of the Country Women’s Association of Australia or as it is commonly known, the CWA.
It was formed in Queensland and NSW in 1922, thereafter spreading to other states. It is still the largest women’s association in Australia with 44000 members in 1855 branches.
It was formed with the aim to “Improve the conditions of country women and children and to try to make better for women and their families, especially those women living in rural and remote Australia”. It is self funded, non partisan and non sectarian.
The associations usually run out of a hall facility in each town in which they have a presence and also often operate hostels for women. They are fantastic supporters of their local communities and form a fantastic network for women in Australia’s often remote and far flung communities.
This photo is of the small unassuming hall and hostel in rural Kilcoy which is north east of Brisbane about an hour and a quarter away depending on traffic. The various branches face the same sort of challenges to continue operations as those that impact small and remote rural communities throughout of very large country.
They make great food I have to admit, real country style feasts.....and every hall and kitchen probably has a large set of iconic white crockery and the all important white enamel metal jugs with blue trim for serving Fruit Cup cordial! And they are always there to help with sustenance and support, whether there is a local emergency or in my distant experience, a train load of railway enthusiasts lands in some small town for a meal and all the local shops are closed. If you give them notice of course!
So thanks for all you have done ladies, fellow Aussies no matter where you come from and long may you continue your work.
Thanks to Wikipedia for some potted history, where much more can be learnt.
First, I want to acknowledge JDevaun. I completely understand if you cannot positively comment on a photo of Fenway Park and especially cannot make it a favorite.
Second, I want to explain the title. The key to understanding the title is solving a riddle. You have to say the answer outloud to understand it. Ok, respell the word "weigh", leaving out the "F". Get it?

Seemed timely since we went to see the Red Sox play last night. Despite being from Los Angeles, our younger son is a huge Red Sox and Celtics fan. Getting to see his face as he visited the Geren Monstah and cheer unabashedly for his team were highlights for me.
Happy Miniature Sunday.
Happy 4th of July

"Why am I here, Otto?" Felicia asked, curious as to why she was summoned here, of all places. The lair of one Doctor Otto Octavius. More specifically, his office.
"It's Doctor Octavius to you, Ms. Hardy. And I don't know, you tell me. You came here of your own accord... To tell your story to secure a place in the plan. A plan that gives us that cursed arachnid on a silver platter. If you don't want to join--" Octavius replied, gently tapping the table with one of his tentacles.
"Right, no, I get that. I meant, why this office? Don't you think it's a little dull? That it could use more of a lavish touch." She replied, looking around the office.
"You have the audacity to come in here and insult my décor!" Octavius answered, growing slightly agitated. His tentacles were ready to attack at a moment's notice. Thankfully, the doctor was able to restrain himself, calming down moments later.
"I'm just saying, I've stolen from some of the wealthiest people in New York. There's nothing valuable here." Felicia acknowledged as she readjusted her sitting position.
"To you, perhaps... Which, in all honesty, is for the best. To me, it's perfect just the way it is." Octavius remarked, a small smile spreading across his face as he admired his handiwork.
After a moment of silence, the doctor spoke up once more.
"But enough with the pleasantries . Let's get on with the story." Octavius insisted, looking rather impatient.
"If you insist." Felicia simply replied, leaning back in her seat as she began her story.
---------------------------------
There it was.. The cat's-eye sapphire, shining brightly in its case. I knew from the moment I saw it that it had to be mine. Unfortunately, it was part of Wilson Fisk's private collection, which meant high security. But you know me, the harder the score, the more thrilling it is to pull it off. I always thought Fisk was more of an art guy. I guess that's mostly due to his wife's influence. Even the Kingpin of Crime can branch out and dabble in other prospective endeavors. I'm sure he won't mind me taking this off his hands. Not that I really care either way. If I'm being honest, he deserves far worse than this.
---------------------------------
"Cat's-eye sapphire? Even for you, it's a little on the nose." Otto commented, interrupting the story.
"That's rich, coming from you, Doctor Octopus... " She replied in a mocking tone.
"I didn't choose my name! Why doesn't anyone understand that?" Octavius lamented, before continuing. "Either way, what does this have to do with the wall-crawler?"
"You wanted the whole story, right? Be patient, Otto.. I'm getting to that.."
"Again, it's Octavius to you." The doctor muttered, but Felicia ignored him. She then continued her story, skipping over 'irrelevant details'.
---------------------------------
So, there I was... I had successfully exited the compound with the jewel in my hand. I was getting ready to make my great escape off the roof, when my cat sense started tingling. Instinctively, I place the jewel safely inside my backpack.
---------------------------------
"Cat sense? Is this a recent development? I don't recall that being one of your abilities." Octavius asked, curiously.
"You know what they say about curiosity and cats, don't you, Doc? I'm not looking to lose any more of my nine lives right now." Felicia replied, noticing Octavius' newfound interest.
"Yes, I'm aware... Curiosity killed the cat. Ha ha, so very amusing... He replied sarcastically before continuing his train of thought. "Could you elaborate on this cat sense, nonetheless?"
"Sure, I guess... A cat sense. Like how Spider has his sixth sense, I have mine." Felicia paused for dramatic effect. The doctor leaned in, intrigued. "It's called a woman's intuition." Felicia laughed, clearly amused, as she toyed with Doctor Octavius.
It's at this point that the doctor lowered his head in disappointment.
"Hey, you asked! Now, can you please stop interrupting me?" Felicia insisted, to which the doctor nodded his head.
"My apologies. Continue." Octavius apologized, clearly feeling defeated as he went back to writing on his notepad.
---------------------------------
I turned around, and sure enough, there he was.
"Look who decided to come play. Along came a spider... Here I thought tonight would be all work and no fun." I say with a smile, as I walk towards the hero.
"Nice to see you too, Felicia. I wish I could say it was under better circumstances." He replies, taking a few steps back.
"That's all you have to say to me? C'mon Spider... I know you love this dance of ours just as much as I do."
"I don't make for much of a dance partner. After all, I've been told I have two left feet." Spider jokes, but I could tell something was off.
"Is that what the redhead tells you? What's her name again? Michelle?" I lied, knowing full well what her name was. Mary Jane Watson. The good girl ... The perfect one that Spider always ends up with. How could she ever do anything wrong? Unlike me, the bad influence. That's all I'll ever be known as. Unfortunately, even that didn't get much of a response from him.
"Mary Jane." He replies, correcting me.
"Mary Jane.. Right. Michelle, Mary Jane, close enough. Does she know you're here right now, with me?"
"No...-- Well, we're not exactly on speaking terms right now." He says this while looking out at the Manhattan skyline.
"Awh, is that why you're so down? You know, I can take your mind off it." I say, trying to console him. I place my hand on the right side of his mask.
"Uhhm, I'm sure you could. But as tempting as that is, I'm afraid I'll have to decline. Superhero rep to protect and all.. You get that, right? We don't need to give J Jonah Jameson more ammunition in his webhead manhunt." Spider responds, slightly embarrassed, as he leaps back and up onto an elevated section of the rooftop, now in a crouched position.
It looks as though, for once, Spider didn't miss leg day. He fills out that spandex quite nicely.
---------------------------------
"I don't need to hear you objectifying that cursed arachnid! There's no relevance there. Give me the story of how you almost got him, nothing more, nothing less." Octavius interrupted once more, growing increasingly frustrated.
"It's important for context." Felicia responded with a huge smirk on her face.
"Doubtful, but fine... Continue." Otto sighed, continuing to write on his notepad.
---------------------------------
"You know this won't end well. Going after Fisk like this." He says, warning me, but it falls on deaf ears.
" After everything he's done... To you, me, and this city... He's got it coming." I reply, my voice seething with resentment.
"This isn't the way, Felicia. Deep down, you know that! I know your history with Fisk is complicated. But this will only make him angry. Are you really willing to risk a war with Wilson Fisk over a sapphire?"
"Heavy risk, but the prize... When it's this beautiful? Definitely." I pause for a few seconds before continuing, "Wait, are you worried about me?" I can feel myself getting slightly flustered over the thought.
"Is that really so surprising? Of course I am. I've seen firsthand what Fisk is capable of." Part of me gets disappointed when I hear that it's more about Fisk, than me.
"Are you saying I haven't?"
"No, I'm saying you're playing a dangerous game here, Felicia."
"You know as well as I do that I live for the danger."
"Yeah. I'm just afraid that this won't end well. Nine lives won't be enough to stop Fisk." He cautioned.
"It's cute, knowing that deep down, you do care. But I'll be just fine. I can take care of myself."
"A part of me will always care. Even though we're not together anymore, you're still important to me." He sighs. "That's why I can't let you do this. Please, just let me do this the right way!"
"How many times do I have to tell you, your way doesn't work ? Fisk, like all your foes, is free by day's end, every single time." I reply, slightly annoyed.
"Last chance, Felicia. Hand over the sapphire." He replies, trying his best to sound intimidating, while ignoring my criticism. But everything I've said is true. Whether Spider remains optimistic or not... Unfortunately, it won't stop him from trying to do the right thing .
"Oh, this little thing?" I ask, taunting him slightly by holding up the sapphire. "Sorry, but you know that's not happening. It looks like I've got to run. Catch me if you can, Spider." I winked at him, placing the jewel back in the backpack, before running towards the edge of the rooftop.
That's when one of our typical rooftop chases began. With him swinging after me as I leapt from rooftop to rooftop. Sometimes, I'd slow down just enough for him to catch up. He'd try to slow me down with his webs. It'd work, momentarily. Thankfully, my claws are sharp enough to cut through the webbing.
"You know, you can stop chasing me anytime now!" I say, looking over my shoulder, as I leap into the air, using my whip once more.
"I wouldn't have to chase you if you weren't running away!" He responds, thwipping and then tugging on my right foot with a webline. I hit the rooftop hard seconds later.
"If you wanted to play rough, you could've just asked!" I grunt, while still trying to recover from the impact of the fall.
"I'll be taking this! Yoink!" Spider exclaimed, yanking the backpack containing the sapphire with his webline.
"There's the Spider we all know and love." I say, biting my lip. Turning around, I ran towards him.
We exchange blows, from punches to kicks. Like usual, he's pulling his punches, but the ones that do land still hurt. Half of the fight is spent performing various acrobatics in an attempt to avoid the other. At one point, I managed to tackle him. My arms were holding his arms down, and my knees were on his chest.
He uses his webshooters to try to break free from the pin. But unfortunately for him, luck isn't on his side.
"Looks like you're out of webfluid. Talk about unlucky... Better luck next time." I say with a coy smile, leaning my face down, closer to his. I pull his mask up, so only his lips are exposed.
---------------------------------
"You're telling me that you had him pinned. You could've killed him right then and there. But you didn't?" Octavius interrupted for the final time.
"That's right." Felicia replied, nodding.
"Why? How could you possibly let that arachnid live?" Octavius asked, dumbfounded.
"Where's the fun in that? If I killed him, the dance would be over. And sorry, but I rather enjoy the dance me and Spider share."
"Clearly, this was a mistake. I gave you the benefit of the doubt, but you've completely wasted my time. Your shot at getting in is nonexistent."
"Kind of figured as much, thanks. I won't lose sleep over not getting into your sad little revenge club."
"Why show up if you knew you weren't interested?" Octavius questioned.
"I was bored, and I had some time to kill. Also, I was curious to see whose asses Spider will be kicking in a few weeks, whenever this plan of yours comes to fruition. Even if you're only locked up for a couple days... That, and I wanted to see how much I could rile you up. Since you know, I haven't forgotten about the time you punched me in the face... Costed me a tooth. Back when you were masquerading as Spider. The nerve you had doing that... I can't wait to see this Six flop like all the others." Felicia mused before leaving Octavius' office.
"This will be an excruciatingly long day." Octavius muttered to himself as the next applicant entered, coming from the waiting room.

You'll love the detail on the concrete when viewed large
This shot very nearly didn't happen: it was Halloween, our last night away, and access to the site was only possible having used a car park of the sort frequented by those with voyeuristic sexual tendencies. It was cold enough for a hat and gloves. Luckily, since I died for my art, I'm not easily put off...
After a couple of high ISO test shots for the composition and the light inside, I noticed the likelihood of a plane trail creeping into the frame but didn't have time to test.
As the next plane approached I opened the shutter and figured I was spot on to catch its trail. It was dark enough that the plane's wing strobes were lighting up the area with each flash.
So I disappeared inside to paint the green (gelled LED lantern) and then lit the outside with the same lantern ungelled.
After a five minute exposure (would have been longer but a nearby house had a Halloween party and I was worried about their security floodlight interfering with my shot) I closed the shutter and packed up my gear whilst the on-board noise reduction did its thing. I walked back to the car (no action) and drove home.
It wasn't until the next morning I checked the shot and saw a second plane trail arcing right through the frame. Didn't realise I'd been inside that long.
Night, no moon, five minutes, ISO100, f/4. Oh yeah, straight out of camera too.
I've just dug a bit further on flickr and, according to Bernard Matthews (!), this is a Type 24 pillbox.
This is to acknowledge my deep debt of gratitude to all my contacts, friends and well wishers who have seen my photos and appreciated them. I thank each and everyone here on Flickr who took out the time to like my work.
20 Million views on Flickr is a big deal for me as this has been achieved without relying on private body parts. Most high number views are generally of that nature.
Here is hoping for your continued support. My thanks to all - the viewers, the Flickr platform and you.

I grew up thinking that it is a truth universally acknowledged that #JohnSingerSargent was a big ole homo, right? 💁 I mean, the man “was notorious in Paris and Venice, positively scandalous. He was a frenzied bugger,” according to one of his early sitters. However, his sexuality is vehemently resisted; it spoils this idea of him as a noble defender of upper-class privilege. I had hopes that @metmuseum's summer show Sargent: Portraits of Artists the and Friends ("Friends!") would be more progressive, but it was dishearteningly conservative. Dozens of portraits of young men and even some early queer personalities, and not a single word. Apparently, I heard, the Met was powerless against pushback from their British co-organizers and high society lenders. 🙍 However, just the other day, I noticed a humble exhibition of Sargent’s sketches from the Met's own collection, discreetly lining a side wall. Huh, so quickly after the big Sargent show; that's weird. What were they of? Oh, just drawing upon drawing of casual male nudes. 😈 I've never loved the Met's Drawings Department more. Vive la résistance. 👊 #iwanttobelieve #gayart #queer #nycart #artmuseum #artgallery #exhibition #gallery #museum #artnerd #arthistory #instaart #art #nyc #artwork #artsy #galleryart #masterpiece #creative #artoftheday #art #culture #arte #ArtWatchers #sargent #metmuseum #drawing #gayartist #queerhistory
Acknowledged as one of the world's premier aerobatic display teams, the Red Arrows are renowned throughout the world as ambassadors for both the Royal Air Force and the UK. So expect plenty of flair and precision-flying when the team takes to the skies above RAF Fairford to demonstrate their breath-taking close-formation flying. The team formed at RAF Fairford in 1965 and flew Folland Gnat jet trainers until 1980 when they transferred to the BAE Hawk T1.

Art historian Henry Luttikhuizen's field of expertise is early Netherlandish art, with a special interest in the painter Geertgen tot sint Jans, about whom he is currently writing a book. If that sounds like an odd connection for a book on a contemporary artist it is worth pointing out Tim Lowly's acknowledged debt to and interest in early Netherlandish (and Flemish) art, including the work of Geertgen tot sint Jans. For his text for trying to get a sense of scale Luttikhuizen focused on the role of love in Tim Lowly’s representation of Temma and contextualizes the work in relation to art historical precedent.
The painting on the left is titled Proximity and it might be of interest to compare it to Geertgen's 1490 painting of John the Baptist.
This book was published by North Park University in conjunction with Tim Lowly's exhibition at the Washington Pavilion of Arts and Science Visual Arts Center. Like that exhibition this book focuses on work that Tim as done related to his daughter over the last 28 years. The book includes insightful texts by Karen Halvorsen Schreck, Riva Lehrer, Henry Luttikhuizen, Sherrie Lowly, Kelly VanderBrug and project editor Kevin Hamilton.
The 160 page, 10.5"x 9" book is extensively illustrated with over 70 color and 25 black and white illustrations.

Fredrick ‘Mickey’ Hill said killed by masked policemen
www.jamaicaobserver.com/news/McNeill--JFJ-call-for-invest...
A very sad but common story in Jamaica, about the killing of a young man name Sonnieko Williams by the Jamaican Police. The article was written by someone making a concern appeal for help on Facebook.
The last time we spoke, Sonnieko told me that he wanted to go down to Pulse and see if he could become a model. He asked me if i had a link.
He had been doing menial jobs to send himself to school since he was 9 years old. At 20, we were having our final conversation as we both walked off the hill. He had been heading to Heart Trust NTA to register for school which was to begin for him in January where he was to pursue his talent in the culinary arts.
The first few times i encountered Sonnieko, it was because he would hail me by name long before I knew his. "Wahgwaan (My Name)" he would say to me and i would acknowledge him, but i remember asking few people around me repeatedly' "Who is that youth; he always calls me by name and i dont even know him." Eventually i came to understand that he worked for a prominent family on the hill, doing odd jobs in the yard.
Other than his vibrant smile and his consistent hail, Sonnieko never had much to say. He was a great listener; a young man who was only a few steps from greatness. There is not one member of the community of Skyline Drive who did not love him; including those who did not know him well.
Skyline Drive is divided by a chasm which was created in heavy rains many years ago. As a result, through way traffic has come to a halt on this hill. The only vehicles that drive here belong to persons that live here or visitors of persons that live here.
A half hour before his death, his friends who were on my side of the chasm called him and told him to forward and linkup. He had told them he was stewing a pot; indulging in the one thing which would have freed him in life; his desire to feed people. His friends on his side of the chasm told me that he had then finished making breakfast, from which some of them had eaten.
There is a wanted man who lives in Jacks Hill. I will not disclose his alias. Apparently the police received intelligence that this particular wanted man had ventured out and was headed toward the chasm. Whomever called the police also stated that the wanted man had been dressed in a grey hoodie.
Hoodie's are commonplace dress on Skyline Drive. Not only because of threat of Tomas, but because the weather here on any normal day is a bit chilly. Sonnieko ventured out of his house to go meet up with his friends. He passed a crowd of people by the corner shop who he greeted cheerfully. He had a small comb in the front of his hair as he usually did, and was wearing a grey hoodie.
Having left the shop he continued down the road.
Maybe thirty seconds later persons at the shop saw one police van come hurtling around the corner skidding in the mud as they went. On the other side of the chasm, two police vans parked and officers dressed completely in blue with knee guards on scampered into Rita Marley's front garden, which is the only way to get to the other side.
Unawares, Sonnieko kept walking toward the chasm.
Sitting in my house, on my side of the chasm, I heard four gunshots. I wondered to myself who could possibly be shooting on the hill. As soon as that thought was completed i heard six more shots fired, and then another five, the last five sounding like that of a heavier firearm and the first ten sounding like those of smaller arms.
I called a friend of mine who lives across the chasm, and he told me that he had been further up the road, but that he had seen some police vehicles pass him. He said when they passed him they slowed beside him and he heard one of them say, " No anno him dat"
I put on my shoes and went next door to the music studio where I spoke with the producer who said he had heard nothing. Continuing outside i reached up onto the road to see a police van speeding down the road. The other was sitting at the edge of the chasm, still throttling, with no-one in it. A policeman shouted: "We kill one a dem, and we not makin the rest of them get weh!" A group of police then walked out of Rita's garden into their vehicles and drove away.
I walked through the garden.
The last time i saw Sonnieko, I was walking through the garden. My head was down as i was carefully observing the (treacherous when wet) terrain. Hearing footsteps i lifted my head to see Sonnieko walking toward me. He broke into a smile. With an outstretched hand he said' "Wah Gwaan (My Name)!" I replied, "Big up youself mi yout" He said, "Dont say a word" and continued along as i went on my way.
When i got to the other side of the garden, I walked around the first bend in the road and saw a group of people up ahead. They were gathering around a particular area. As i got closer, i saw a small pink comb with blood and brain marrow spattered across and around it. There were two feet of blue slippers as well with blood dribbled across them.
I got there just in time to see his mother come running out of her house and down the road from the other direction headed toward the crowd. She screamed at the crowd asking them: "Who see dem!" Who see!" "Nobody dont see mama", was the reply. She crumbled into a heaving heap, with a cry that cut the sky open.
The rain began to fall. The people wished Tomas had come. If Tomas had come, someone said; this would never happen.
The friend i called who had seen the police pass up the road was there, dressed also in a hoodie. His hoodie though was black.
After shooting the innocent 20 yr old whom they had mistaken for someone who did not even slightly fit his description, they scooped up his remains and drove hastily out of the community, pointing their guns in the direction of persons who stuck their heads out of their homes hoping to figure out what had just happened.
I gave my tv away one month before World Cup. I do not own a radio. Some persons wonder why and have asked me. Hopefully the following paragraph will tell why.
Four new police vehicles arrived on the scene of the crime, cordoned off the area and began to take pictures. They told the community members that they received a report that the team who had been there earlier were doing a patrol through the hill, came upon a group of men and came under heavy gunfire. Does this sound too familiar? When i found myself speaking to these new officers, their response to me was to ask me if it does not seem illogical that the highly trained police would just drive up and shoot an innocent man; i told them that was exactly the point of what took place. They told me not to swear his innocence. They told me that I am not with this young man every minute of the day and therefore can not state that he did not have a gun on him. I told them that in as much as they were asking me to be objective in my assesment, they should be objective enough in theirs to also accept the possibility that my friend, Sonnieko was killed in cold blood..
CVM arrived on the scene but not on the side of the chasm where the people were. The police had cordoned off the road and would not allow the media to cross the crime scene. I wonder what the news report on CVM will say tonight.
Even more so, i wonder if justice will come to this humble family of the hills who have done nothing but respect each other and their community, and occasionally wear grey hoodie's when going to look for a friend.
It could very well have been me, coming home from a trip to the corner shop. I too own a hoodie. But that day, maybe my life would have been saved as my hoodie is brown. But maybe if I had seen Sonnieko at the shop, as is typical I would have told him to wait on me, and together we would have been walking back around. And I am sure the story would have been that two cronies were killed. I almost wish I was among the dead, so persons could clearly see that someone they knew well had been killed as well. Someone who more persons of in positions of power could vouch for in a personal way. Some have been heard to be saying that my story is one side of the story. I know Sonnieko. Maybe if they killed me too, some of you would take another look at this case.
After a trip to Maddens Funeral Home, Sonnieko's mother found that he had recieved three shots. Two to his back, and one to his head. The shot that hit him in the head from the back pushed his forehead out of his body just above his eye.
The family needs a lawyer to represent their case. They CAN NOT afford one. If anyone in such capacity has read this letter and is moved to acting, whether through funding the process or giving legal aid pro-bono. Please. Contact me.
Let it not be said that this is a moving story. Let it be said that this was a spark, and that cumulatively we began a fire that forever changed the course of our nation’s history. Without that, this story would not have been moving, nor would it have moved anything or anyone into action.
I WRITE THESE NOTES FULLY COGNIZANT THAT MY ACTIONS COULD MAKE ME A TARGET. I HOWEVER AM WILLING TO STAND FOR CHANGE.
The bigger issue is that, by law, when the police shoot someone, they are supposed to carry them to hospital immediately. There was no crime scene cordoned off immediately with police left on scene. Due to this, considering the fact that when the investigating officers arrived on scene they told the community that they were informed that the unit had been fired upon, i surmise a gun will be produced. I also surmise that the gun will have Sonnieko's fingerprints on it, probably placed there on the journey from the hill to KPH, by putting his dead hands on to the gun.
Sonnieko died for a reason. He died because he has the right friends, in the right positions of power, and with the ability to make things happen. The bigger issue is that the system is designed to accomodate the possiblity of corruption in the JCF. This system is the (My Name)e system which has caused the unlawful deaths for numerous youths across the island, none of whom had the voice to speak for them after their passing.
Sonnieko's death was not just an isolated unlawful act. It is the product of a flawed system of justice, or might i say a perfected system of injustice, which allows officers of the (law) to cover their tracks when they make poor judgement and without accosting their victims, murder them from many metres away.
Sonnieko's death is a spark. We are the fire. We must be the change that will affect the history of our island going forward. I knew Sonnieko was destined for greatness. There could be no greater outcome than this, for Sonnieko's passing. Let us unite to achieve this end.

Ralph Rugoff has declared: «May You Live in Interesting Times will no doubt include artworks that reflect upon precarious aspects of existence today, including different threats to key traditions, institutions and relationships of the “post-war order.” But let us acknowledge at the outset that art does not exercise its forces in the domain of politics. Art cannot stem the rise of nationalist movements and authoritarian governments in different parts of the world, for instance, nor can it alleviate the tragic fate of displaced peoples across the globe (whose numbers now represent almost one percent of the world’s entire population).»

不 可 使 慈 愛 誠 實 離 開 你 ． 要 繫 在 你 頸 項 上 、 刻 在 你 心 版 上 ．
Let not mercy and truth forsake thee: bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart:這 樣 、 你 必 在 神 和 世 人 眼 前 蒙 恩 寵 、 有 聰 明 。So shalt thou find favour and good understanding in the sight of God and man.你 要 專 心 仰 賴 耶 和 華 、 不 可 倚 靠 自 己 的 聰 明 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.
在 你 一 切 所 行 的 事 上 、 都 要 認 定 他 、 他 必 指 引 你 的 路 。 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.Proverbs3:3~6

Inaugurated in 1847, Marché Bonsecours is acknowledged as one of Canada's ten finest heritage buildings and has become an essential stop on any visit to Old Montréal.
It is named for the adjacent Notre-Dame-de-Bon-Secours Chapel. In 1849 the building was used for the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada. The Market building also housed Montreal City Hall between 1852 and 1878. Closed in 1963 as a farmer's central market, it was slated for demolition. Today, the market is multi purpose facility.
Headquarters of the Conseil des métiers d'art du Québec (Québec Crafts Council), the Marché houses 15 boutiques featuring top-quality “made in Québec” creations: crafts, fashions, accessories and jewellery, design items, reproduction Quebec furniture and more.
Its restaurants and their terraces are opened during warm weather and offer local fare.
Taken on 18/03/23 and some notes based on Wikipedia, other Flickrites (acknowledged in brackets) and also based on a chat I had with a volunteer at Cranmore.
This vehicle was a London Underground 1938 Stock driving
car No. 10229. It was one of 1.121 such cars built by Metro-Cammell and Birmingham RC&W, with No. 10229 being completed in 1940. "According to Wikipedia an "...additional 173 cars were added to the fleet by the end of 1953, comprising 91 new builds (the 1949 Tube Stock), 76 conversions from Pre-1938 Tube Stock or 1935 Tube Stock, and six unconverted cars of 1935 Tube Stock, and the stock was used on the London Underground until 1988. During their long lives they worked on the Bakerloo, Northern, Piccadilly, East London and Central lines."
Meanwhile the former ex-Underground 1923 'Standard Tube Stock' Class 485 trains used on the isle of Wight were approaching the end of their economic working life and it was decided to purchase and refurbish 1938 stock. In 1989 16 carriages were initially refurbished at Eastleigh and formed into eight two cars units, entering service in 1990. In 1992 No. 10229 formed the A-end of an additional unit sent to the Island, numbered 483-009 (Mikey Lawlor) and a further two cars were "... also shipped to Ryde depot, although this was for spares only and was never used in passenger operation on the Island." (Wikipedia).
The final days of the 483 units on the island were beset with issues as Wikipedia records. "On 13 September 2019, South Western Railway announced that because of a "safety issue" only one of the units was able to run, which meant cancelling just under half of scheduled services and running only an hourly service on the Island Line. This reduction in service was by mid-September expected to last for approximately one month, until 14 October, but the company warned that the trains' age and increasing difficulty of getting spare parts meant it might take longer. Normal service was not restored for approximately 5 weeks, but further fleet faults brought repeated disruption through much of November. Just 3 days after the news that only one Class 483 was serviceable, on 16 September 2019 the government announced that the fleet would be replaced by five two-car Class 484s." In the case of No. 483-009 this had been relegated to the role of the Ryde shunter since 2016.
The withdrawn 483 units have attracted the interest of preservationists (despite the problems of third/fourth rail electric units running on heritage railways) and also the hospitality industry. The latter was the case with No. 10229, which I understand was purchased for use as a bar and transferred to Cranmore for a cosmetic overhaul. The result was a vehicle turned out it LT red livery but erroneously numbered 10289 after repainting (Mr. Ratty and Ian Docwra). Additionally Ian, who has an eye for detail, noted that it retains "... the electric door buttons, but with brass manual door handles fitted. The LT lettering is also too small, and is probably a bus example." Subsequently " ... unfortunately the vehicle was vandalised with mindless graffiti some time after this picture was taken. Why do we revere a certain so-called ‘artist’ who encourages such criminal behaviour?" (Glen Batten). However, a) as far as I know this was the only vehicle at Cranmore affected in this way b) the graffiti looks a little too neat to my eye and c) it seems a spooky coincidence that the graffiti artist added the words 'Dom Perignon' to a vehicle destined for a third career in hospitality. So, my thinking is that the graffiti is deliberate.
Based on the chat I had with a volunteer whilst I was at Cranmore the new owner of the carriage was declared bankrupt after the work was completed and a new buyer is/was being sought

Chongqing's night scenery
Widely acknowledged as the largest industrial and economic center in southwestern China, Chongqing City is a popular destination for travelers with its hilly slopes, rivers, night views and spicy food.
Meaning "double celebrations" in Chinese, the city was built in the 11th century BC during the Zhou Dynasty. The city was founded in 1997. Prior to then, it was a city in Sichuan Province. Now Chongqing is the biggest city in China in terms of area and population.
Known as one of China‘s "Three Furnaces" (along with Wuhan and Nanjing), Chongqing is unbearably hot during the summer. The surrounding mountains seem to trap the heat. It is pleasant to visit the city in other seasons.
Also known as "Fog City" in addition to "the Furnace," Chongqing is covered with a thick layer of fog for an average of 68 days a year, usually in spring or autumn. The fog gives the place an air of mystery.
Spread across a number of low hills (average elevation of 400 meters), surrounded by mountains, and straddling the Yangtze River, Chongqing is a natural wonder.
The main features of the downtown area are the hilly slopes. Travelers soon learn to get used to the feeling of going up and down, up and down. Locals compare the terrain to San Francisco.
At night, climbing up onto one of the less-populated hills affords panoramic views of the city‘s night lights. Due to the city‘s hilly terrain, you can see a hierarchy of lights in all directions.
Lights in different colors sparkle and shine in layers and are reflected in the sparkling river, creating a mirage-like view -- it‘s hard to tell the river and the lights.
But it is to cruise down China‘s longest river, the Yangtze, passing through the famous Three Gorges that most tourists come to Chongqing. With over 100 cruise ships that begin their itineraries in the city, there is no better place to start a Three Gorges river tour.
Choingqing‘s hot spicy food is famous. The most well-known dish is the hotpot, which is a pot of boiling broth that you put various uncooked food items into. The meal always takes a long time, so it is good to eat it in the company of others.
Situated on the bank of the Jia Ling River, not far from its confluence with the mighty Yangtze is the ancient village of Ci Qi Kou, formerly known as Long Yin. Covering an area of some 1.2 square kilometres (291.6 acres) it is 14 kilometres to the west of Chongqing Municipality.
Chongqing itself has undergone many changes over the centuries, changes that have not been reflected in Ci Qi Kou with the consequence that the village conveys an impression of what Chongqing would have been like in the distant past. This fact has been recognized by the State Council and in 1998 Ci Qi Kou became a protected cultural site.
The history of Ci Qi Kou can be traced back for more than 1700 years. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (1368-1911) it was famous for its production of porcelain. To date, over twenty old kiln sites have been discovered there. It is because of the importance of the porcelain industry that the name has been changed from Long Yin to Ci Qi Kou which being translated means Porcelain Village. However, the village was also an important supply post for shipping on the river, a fact that explains why there are so many shops lining the twelve lanes paved with their large flag stones that form the main routes. Here you will find many outlets for craftwork, groceries and the like as well as a horologist, photography supplies, drugstore and a tempting supply of roasted nuts and seeds. As one would expect there are also many teashops and restaurants to cater for the many visitors who come to see something of a way of life that has existed here for so many centuries.
The majority of the houses date from the Ming and Qing Dynasties, periods during which many masterpieces of Chinese architecture were created. Much of the two and three storey construction is of bamboo and timber. Blue bricks and pillars set off the snow-white walls that contrast in turn with vermilion doors and lattice windows. Black tablets and lanterns adorn the gates to complete the authentic and traditional appearance of the properties. The quietly flowing waters of the Jia Ling River pass by the front of the village and have been its lifeblood for as long as anyone can remember. For it was the river that brought goods and people here as well as carrying local products off to customers at home and abroad.
The three notable attractions of the village are the tea bars, the artists' studios and the Shu Embroidery workshops. Surprisingly, there are more than a hundred tea bars each with their own particular characteristics. Here friends enjoy a chat or meet to discuss business. So the tea bars offer the opportunity for you to meet the locals and also become acquainted with the unique folk opera.
The ateliers, where you may see the work of the local artists will be of great interest. It has been said that the more beautiful a place may be, the more artists it will attract. You are sure to be amazed by the quality of the work on show and in progress as the many artists record the local scenes with skill and dedication. With so many artists working in Ci Qi Kou, you will be spoiled for choice when seeking a souvenir of your visit
Artistic ability of another kind will sure to please your eye when you visit a Shu Embroidery workshop. The craft is famous throughout China and the skill of the women you will observe working in the village is unsurpassed. It will be difficult to decide whether to opt for a painting or a piece of embroidery as a reminder of your visit as the choice on offer is truly stunning.
Choice is no less a problem when it comes to deciding where to take a meal at one of the many restaurants. Local dishes include Mao Xue Wang, Qian Zhang Pi and JiaoYan Huang Sheng. All come very highly recommended. You may well ask 'What on earth are they?' It is our opinion that whichever you try, you will not be disappointed and will soon come to realise why they are so popular.
It is often said that a visit to China is a cultural experience. This is never more true than when you visit a place such as Ci Qi Kou where you will find the local residents dedicated to their traditional way of life, unaffected by modern influences to be found in the larger towns and cities. Above all, you will find a friendly welcome awaits you as the people of Ci Qi Kou share their special way of life with you for the duration of your visit.
Chongqing is the birth place of the hot pot in China. Once upon a time, it was a seasonal food designed to protect against the low temperatures and frigid winds of the winter. People would sit around a table, eat hot pot, and revel in the instant warmth that would flood their bodies. Hot pot has become more and more popular today, and it is widely enjoyed by people and regardless of seasons and regions.
Eating hot pot is a joyful experience. First, you need to choose the pot - spicy, pure or a combination of two - for the soup and dipping sauce. After the spiced soup boils with a hazy steam, fish, meat, bean curds and vegetables can be added. When the soup boils again, you can eat by dipping them in a little bowl of special sauce ¨Cbut be careful of the burning hot soup!In Chongqing, hot pot restaurants can be found everywhere and many have become very popular among the local people. Xiao Tian E (Cygnet Hot-Pot Palace) and Su Da Jie, E Zhang Men are the restaurants most suited for mass consumption. The hot pot restaurants in the Chongqing 5-star Harbour Plaza also serve decent food in a cozy environment
Introduction Surrounded by water on 3 sides, Chongqing is situated at the confluence of Yangtze River and Jialing River. With beautiful hills and mountains the "Mountain City" has long been reputed for its wonderful scenery. To its east, there is the famous Three Gorges on the Yangtze River; to its west, there are the 50, 000 stone figures sculpted on the cliffs during the Tang and Song Dynasties as the acme of perfection; in its south, the stone forests in Wansheng District seem superlatively made, yet they were created by nature; and in its north you cannot help meditating on the dinosaur fossils of 180 million years ago. The Fishing Fortress in Hechuan has long been widely known. The waterfalls, stones, forests, springs, and outdoor games in Simianshan Mountain in Jiangjing are fascinating. In the city proper. there are attractive Eling Hill, Loquat Hill, Night Scene of the Mountain City, Flowers in the Nanshan Park decorating the mountain city. The East, South, West, North, and Tongjing Hot Springs are like five pearls scattered in the suburbs. The Anti-Japanese Remains present the combat achievements in Chongqing by the Anti-fascist Allies during the Second World War. and the Red Crag Village and Geleshan Martyrs' Cemetery bear the glorious loyalty of the revolutionary seniors. For the city itself, it came into being three thousand years ago and got its name 800 years ago. On December 8, 1986, it was appointed one of the Historical and Cultural Cities of China by the State Council.
As one of the four municipalities under the Central Government (MDUCG), there are two things in particular immediately distinguish Chongqing from the other MDUCGs (Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin). The first, it is unusually large in area, covering 82,400 sq km, 2.4 times the total area occupied by Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin municipalities. The 43 urban districts and counties under its jurisdiction represent three quarters the total number governed by the three other municipalities. Secondly, it is unusually large in population. At the end of 1997, 30.429 million people lived in Chongqing, equivalent to 83 percent of the total population of Beijing, Shanghai and Tianjin. In Chongqing, however, more than 80 percent of the population is rural, a figure far higher than in the other municipalities.
Thus, of all the municipalities, Chongqing has the largest area and population and the highest proportion of peasants.
HISTORY Chongqing's history extends back at least 3,000 years, endowing it with much historical and cultural significance. Traces of man's presence have been found from as far back as the end of the Old Stone Age 20,000 to 30,000 years ago. From the beginning of the Shang Dynasty (c. 16th century B.C.) to the close of the Warring States Period (221 B.C.), it was the capital of the state of Ba. From the Qin Dynasty through the Eastern Han Dynasty (221 B.C.-220 A.D.), it was a prefecture also known as Ba. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, (581-907 A.D.), it was known as the sub-prefecture of Yuzhou, hence its standard byname "Yu.'' Subsequently, during the Northern Song Dynasty (960-1127 A.D.), it was renamed Gongzhou. In 1189, during the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhao Dun, later the Guangzong Emperor, was given the title Prince of Gong. Regarding this as an exceedingly joyous event, he upgraded its status to that of a prefecture and renamed it as "Chongqing'' or "redoubled celebration,'' the name it carries to this day.
The Ming and Qing dynasties (1368-1911) saw goods spin in and out of the city as merchants from the four corners gathered. In 1891 Chongqing became an open port and a customs house was established there. Shipping and trade and the financial and processing industries grew steadily more prosperous as the city came to link southwestern China and the upper reaches of the Yangtze River with the rest of the world. In 1929 Chongqing was formally declared a city. Following the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japan in 1937, the Kuomintang (KMT) moved the government from Nanjing to Chongqing. In 1939 the city was elevated to a municipality under the Executive Yuan. Beginning in 1940 it served as the wartime ``provisional capital'' for the KMT government, becoming China's political, economic, financial, commercial, transportation, cultural and diplomatic center. After the KMT government returned to the formerly occupied capital Nanjing in 1946, Chongqing returned to its status as a municipality under the Executive Yuan.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, the Southwestern Sub-bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC) and the Southwestern Military and Political Commission were set up in Chongqing. The city was made a municipality directly under the central government and continued as the political, economic and cultural center of southwestern China. After the system whereby the nation was organized into large administrative zones was rescinded in 1954, Chongqing's status was changed to that of a city under the jurisdiction of Sichuan Province. In 1983 the central government decided to include Chongqing in the first group of cities where pilot reforms of the economic system could be tried out, its economic planning being directly supervised by the State Council. The state also gave the city provincial-level administrative powers over its economy and formally made it a foreign trade port. Since entering the 1990s China has been effecting its strategy of opening and developing the Yangtze River. Chongqing was listed as an open city. In September 1996, with the approval of the State Council, Sichuan passed administration over the cities of Wanxian and Fuling and Qianjiang Prefecture to Chongqing to govern on the province's behalf. In March 1997, the Fifth Session of the Eighth NPC discussed and approved a resolution rescinding Chongqing's then current status of city, declaring Chongqing a MDUCG.
Topography Chongqing may be found on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River covering the area 105x17'-110x11' E longitude and 28x10'-32x13' N latitude. The municipality, measuring 470 km from west to east and 450 km from north to south, borders Shaanxi Province to the north, Hubei and Hunan to the east, Guizhou to the south and its former province Sichuan to the west. Generally speaking, the land is higher in the north and south, sloping lower into the Yangtze River Valley in the center. For the most part, the terrain is characterized by low hills, mostly less than 500 meters above sea level. The municipality is home to the Daning River and is fed by the waters of the Jialing, Wujiang, Fujiang and Qijiang rivers, in addition to the Yangtze.
Chongqing has a humid subtropical monsoon climate, with little frost or snow, frequent clouds and mist, warm winters, hot summers, early springs and short autumns. The average temperature in January is 7.5 C and in July, 28.5 C, the mean annual temperature being 18 C. There is abundant rainfall, with annual precipitation averaging 1,000 to 1,400 mm. Rain is particularly plentiful in the nighttime during the weeks when spring passes into summer, giving rise to the common reference "night rain in the hills of Ba, (eastern Sichuan).''
Natural Resources More than 40 mineral products have been found in Chongqing; 25 varieties, most importantly coal, natural gas, strontium, pyrite, halite, bauxite, mercury, manganese, barium, marble, limestone and barite, have proven reserves. With reserves of 320 billion cubic meters, it is one of China's principal sources of natural gas. Reserves of bauxite (74 million tons), halite (300 billion tons), and strontium (1.85 million tons) lead the nation. Reserves of manganese and barium rank second and third respectively.
The areas abounds with biological variety, including more than 2,000 species of vascular plants. Some 380 animal species can be found locally, including the zibet (Asiatic civet cat), otter, clouded leopard, macaque, red-breasted golden pheasants, crown deer and other unusual wild animals. Rongchang is the nation's famous producing base for stud hogs, and Shizhu is a famous base to raise, process and export long hair rabbits. Chongqing has over 120 river fishes. Fish farming is popular in every district and county. Changshouhu Lake and Dahonghu Lake are fish raising bases of Chongqing.
Natural Scenes Chongqing proper is surrounded by the Yangtze and Jialing Rivers, so landscape is very beautiful. It is known as a "Mountain city" and also a "River city" because its buildings are constructed on hills by the rivers. Night scene of the mountain city is a wonderful sight. The South Hot Spring Park, North Hot Spring park, Jingyunshan summer resort and Nanshan park are situated in the near suburbs and Jiangjin Simianshan forest, Wansheng Yunan Stone Forest, Wulong Furongdong Cave, Xiannushan Grasslands, Nanchuan Jingfushan Forest Park are situated in distant suburbs. Along the Yantse River there are a large number of scenic spots of mountains, rivers, forests, springs, cataracts, gorges and caves such as the mighty Three Gorges, Daninghe and Xiaoninghe River valleys, Yunyang Longgang, Fenjie Heaven Pit and Earth Crevice, Wuxi Hongcheba Grasslands and Wushan Zhiyanhe River Three-Colored Cataract. Construction of the Three Gorges dam will form a 600 kilometers long and more than 1,000 square kilometers big lake on high gorges, an excellent tourist resort will thus be set up.
Historical Sites Historical sites can be sought after in Chongqing Museum, Hongyan Memorial Hall of Revolution, Geleshan Revolutionary Martyrs Tomb, Jiang Keshek's Residence, Zhang Zizhong's Apartment, Lingyuan, Kongyuan and some other Wartime Capital remains. Dazu Rock Carvings is the gem of stone sculptures of the later period. Hechuan Diaoyucheng city, that is called "the place where Whip of God was broken," is one of China's three ancient battlefields. Fengdu's Ghost City and Ghost King Stone Carvings, Fuling's Baiheliang (the forest of steles under water), Shizhu's Xituoyunti, Zhongxian's Shibaozhan, Yunyang's Zhang Fei Temple, Liangping's Shuangguitang Temple, Fengjie's Baidicheng City, Wushan's Lu You Cave and Ba people's hanging coffins and the natural scenes of the Three Gorges add radiance and beauty to each other.
Tourism The center of the old city of Chongqing is almost completely encircled by the two arms of the Yangtze and Jialing rivers. Row upon row of buildings climb the hills beside the rivers, giving rise to its nickname the "city of hills" and the phrase "night views of the hilly city" known well both at home and abroad. When night falls, the lights of a myriad families shine like stars, climbing to the sky, where they join the star-studded dome above, the flowing water and open sky each playing off the other's radiant beauty. Close by in the suburbs are many scenes of natural beauty, including the Southern and Northern Hot Springs and summer retreats such as Jinyun Mountain and the Southern Mountain. Further out can be found the primeval forests on Simian (Four-faced) Mountain in Jiangjin City, the Yunan Stone Forest in Wansheng, Furong (Hibiscus) Cave in Wulong County, the Gaoshan (High Hill) Grasslands on the Xiannu (Fairy Maiden) Mountain, and the Jinfoshan (Golden Buddha Mountain) Forest Park in Nanchuan City. Marvelous spectacles along the Yangtze River include the magnificent natural landscapes of the Three Gorges, the Large and Small Ninghe River Gorges in the Wushan Mountains, the Dragon's Vat in Yunyang, the fissures and hollows carved out of the living rock with divine skill as if by a demon's axe in Fengjie, the Hongchiba Gaoshan Grasslands and Xiabing Cave in Wuxi, and the Three-Color Waterfalls on the Ziyang River in Wushan. When the Yangtze Three Gorges Reservoir is completed, the 600-km long, 1000-sq-km manmade ``lake'' will delight tourists with the sheer walls of the towering gorges contrasting with the even waters below.
In addition to such natural splendors, Chongqing has many fascinating reminders of man's accomplishments, such as the Red Crag Village Revolutionary Memorial Hall

more here about the Biennale :
Ralph Rugoff has declared: «May You Live in Interesting Times will no doubt include artworks that reflect upon precarious aspects of existence today, including different threats to key traditions, institutions and relationships of the “post-war order.” But let us acknowledge at the outset that art does not exercise its forces in the domain of politics. Art cannot stem the rise of nationalist movements and authoritarian governments in different parts of the world, for instance, nor can it alleviate the tragic fate of displaced peoples across the globe (whose numbers now represent almost one percent of the world’s entire population).»
