A couple of red phone boxes off Trafalgar Square.
The Strand I believe.
This was one of those pictures taken purely with editing in mind.
The original shot was very dull!

I haven't made a 'man cake' in quite a while.. thoroughly enjoyed this one!
Actually this phone box is not as desolate as it looks as it is next a road at Studland where traffic queues to board the Sandbanks Ferry.
The red telephone box is a public telephone kiosk designed by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott and is a familiar sight on the streets of the United Kingdom, Malta, Bermuda and Gibraltar. Despite a reduction in their numbers in recent years, the traditional British red telephone box can still be seen in many places throughout the UK, and in current or former British colonies around the world. The colour red was chosen to make them easy to spot.
The red phone box is often seen as an iconic British symbol throughout the world.
This one is the much used K6 (kiosk number six) design which In 1935 was designed to commemorate the silver jubilee of King George V. K6 was the first red telephone kiosk to be extensively used outside London, and many thousands were deployed in virtually every town and city, replacing most of the existing kiosks and establishing thousands of new sites. It has become a British icon, although it was not universally loved at the start. The red colour caused particular local difficulties and there were many requests for less visible colours. The red that is now much loved was then anything but, and the Post Office was forced into allowing a less strident grey with red glazing bars scheme for areas of natural and architectural beauty. Ironically, some of these areas that have preserved their telephone boxes have now painted them red.
Studland Bay is protected from the prevailing southwesterly winds and storms by Ballard Down and Handfast Point, the chalk headland that separates Studland from Swanage Bay to the south. In the 17th century there began a process of sand accumulation in the bay and along the South Haven Peninsula stretching north, resulting in natural land reclamation and the creation or expansion of the bay's beaches and its sand dune system.
The beaches at Studland Bay are amongst the most popular in the country, and on rare hot summer weekends they fill up with thousands of people. The beaches are situated in civil parish of Studland on the Isle of Purbeck in the English county of Dorset. The South East Dorset Conurbation of Poole, Bournemouth & Boscombe lies on the other side of Poole Harbour, resulting in the beaches being relatively accessible to a large population via the Sandbanks Ferry. North of the visitor centre the beach and dunes are owned and managed by the National Trust, who have restricted parking provision at the site to prevent overcrowding. A short northern stretch of beach is reserved as a naturist beach.
Since the early 20th century the supply of sand to the bay has depleted and erosion is occurring so that, if natural processes are uninterrupted, the coastline may in time retreat back to its previous line, visible as a line of higher ground between Redend Point and the hill east of the Knoll House Hotel. In January 2004 the BBC television series The National Trust investigated the conflicts between different groups of people who use the beach and heath at Studland. The series particularly covered the debate about coastal management, with the Trust proposing to remove defensive walls to allow natural processes to shape the coastline, though this would result in loss of some land and property.
The final stage of the South West Coast Path (if walked in the conventional anti-clockwise direction, starting at Minehead, Somerset) follows Studland Bay and ends at South Haven Point, where a sculpture marks the end.
The actual village of Studland lies 2.5 miles (4 km) to the south of here and it is famous for these beaches and a nature reserve. It lies within the Purbeck administrative district, and is located about 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the town of Swanage, over a steep chalk ridge, and 3 miles (4.8 km) south of the South East Dorset conurbation at Sandbanks, but separated from it by Poole Harbour and the Sandbanks Ferry. The parish includes Brownsea Island within the harbour. In the 2011 Census the parish had a population of 425, though many of the houses in the village are holiday homes, second homes, or guest houses, and the village's population varies depending upon the season.
Sandbanks Ferry is a vehicular chain ferry which crosses the entrance of Poole Harbour and its route runs from Sandbanks to Studland and in doing so connects the coastal parts of the towns of Bournemouth and Poole with Swanage and the Isle of Purbeck. This avoids a 25 mile journey by road.
The ferry, along with the this road that connects with it on the Studland side, is owned by the Bournemouth - Swanage Motor Road and Ferry Company, which initiated the ferry crossing in 1923, and a toll is charged for use of both road and ferry. The current toll for a car is £3.50 each way. The current ferry boat, named Bramble Bush Bay, was put into service in 1994 and can carry up to 48 cars. It is the fourth vessel to operate on the route.
The entrance to Poole Harbour is a particularly busy waterway, used by many private and leisure craft along with commercial vessels including large ferries serving routes to France. This often affects the ability of the ferry to maintain its nominal 20 minute frequency. Wilts and Dorset buses cross the ferry frequently throughout the day, on route 50 from Bournemouth to Swanage.
Box Moth, found this blighter in our shed yesterday. Should have dispatched him as they devastated our 40 year old box tree last summer but couldn't being myself to do it.

1. Taking pictures a tool (camera), not a photographer.
2. The choice of tool limits the possibilities.
3. Experience allows him (instrument) less and less to limit their capabilities.
4. The ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...
5. The moment of observation is the real find ...
6. Training and mastering it defies. Training leads to poor imitations of the original.
7. Often the result should ripen, like wine. Although time is the understanding of the mind, therefore it is very speculative.
8. The meaning of all this is the process!
9. Let it be!

In the case of war and other situations it is often true that it's ever so easy to get in, and so very difficult to get out.
So many colorful boxes and shoes, so little time. What's a girl to do?
No enhancements/adjustments to the colors. SOOC except for a couple of cat hairs on Monet's sweatshirt that I had to remove...
Most of my Superstar era dolls came with their boxes, (for some reason it's only really that era that I have to get dolls that are MIB or NRFB!) and while most get released from their boxes and put on display, especially if the box is somewhat damaged, there are some I actually prefer to display in their boxes, as I just love the whole presentation. Beauty Secrets Christie was on display for a while and had fun playing with her, but she has now joined her friend Beauty Secrets Barbie (the 1980 New York convention edition - I have another regular one that was de-boxed and is now on display) on that wall of boxed beauties in my Dolly room.

28/52: The ugly duckling
Amsterdam, Netherlands
I spend a very significant chunk of my life in rehearsal studios. Many rehearsal studios are rooms with black walls, black floors and often no windows (and I can remember several that were nicknamed "the black box"). They aren't always inherently ugly spaces (and some are really nice), but I can't say most would be something I'd choose to look at if I didn't have to.
The rehearsal studio at the Carré theatre in Amsterdam happened to be a fairly nice, spacious version of a black box with a large window...and the silhouetting in the photo covers up the various cluttery tables and chairs that were lined up along the walls.
Brighton Bathing Boxes - I thought since the net is saturated with photos of the wonderful colours of the different boxes, I would do something a bit different and hi light the different textures rather than colour. Always good to try something a little different
This bento was packed for my 2.5 year old in case she wouldn't eat any food from the buffet at a family birthday party. (She wouldn't...not that she ate much of the bento either...)
