Back in 1972 a rich businessman Stanley Washington found out his wife Agnes Washington was pregnant with twin boys. He wanted to give them world – literally. His own father never paid attention to him and his goal was to make sure he could be there every moment for his boys and work with them together to create something new and amazing. Jason and David Washington were born in August 1972 and that’s when Stanley had.....

Leaving Eifel land you come to Bergische land this is the area of undulating hills between the Ruhr and Sieg rivers and also where I spend most of my time in Germany when I travel for business.
Pictured here is probably the fanciest house in the park the Mannesmannhaus aus Remscheid, Mannesmann was a file maker and a shrewd businessman and investor who turned his small business into a metal making empire that today is worth billions and the most respected metals manufacturer in Germany.
The house dates from 1795 when Johann Heinrich Mannesmann settled in Bliedinghausen, originally a half timbered affair it was rebuilt as Mannesmann’s prosperity grew into what we see today.
The family moved into a mansion befitting their stature and wealth in the later part of the 19th century and kept possession of the original homestead until it was donated to the park in the mid 21rst century.

Disclaimer: Not trying to be realistic in my editing there is enough realism in the world, my style is a mix of painterly and romanticism as well as a work in progress.
This is the last of three murals painted by local artist and businessman by Kevin Hansen...
I have added the frame here in my post-processing.
Also, since I don't know if the artist has given it a title, I have titled it temporarily here. I will change it if and when I hear otherwise.
Kevin is a cobbler who owns and operates Molly's Cobbler Shop, which is just 10 blocks from our home.
He is also an accomplished artist, regularly producing original artwork, often hanging them outside on one of his shop walls. He often features themes of our city and state. I love his style and effective use of colors!
As I was passing his shop today, I parked, got out, and captured each of the three Christmas murals hanging on his outside wall. This is one of those paintings. I may put all three of them in a collage and post them.
Here are two links if you want to see more of Kevin's artistry. The first link is to his shop's website, and the second features more of his art projects :)

This abandoned ship makes almost everybody driving to/from Niagara Falls curious.
It called La Grande Hermine was constructed in 1914 in Quebec and began as a ferry on the St. Lawrence, and later became a cargo ship, and then a floating restaurant. It was in 1991 that it was converted into a replica ship that Jacques Cartier used when exploring the St. Lawrence river back in 1535. This is the largest one — measuring 140 feet long. This abandoned ship came to Jordan Harbour in 1997 with the intention of being turned into another restaurant or a gambling venue (there a different variations on this) by a businessman, who unfortunately passed away before he could see his dream come true. He was awaiting permission, along with lacking the funds to have it be used in Niagara Falls, which is why the ship was docked at Jordan Harbour for so long. Then in January of 2003, it was the victim of an arson fire. Luckily, the entire La Grande Hermine didn’t go up in smoke, and its damaged and “rustic” look actually adds to photographs and gives it more wonderment behind the history of this curious “shipwreck”. It is now a distinctive Niagara landmark and favourite roadside attraction to many people.

I have been using this plaster cast head of Hermes (the Olympian Hermes, that is) as my photographic punching ball for years. The reason is that he has got endless amounts of patience with me. This shot was done outdoors, using a reflector. I like to shoot wide-open and, with a proper lens, one would get satisfying results. Compare this shot to the other one, number 1, taken with a different lens, though PP was exactly the same (edited in Fuji's raw converter and refined in Luminar). This shot was taken with the 7Artisans manual lens wide-open (F 1.2). This lens will not produce sharp focus wide-open and at close range. And yet it produces images with "character".

Meine lieben Jungens!
Hier sende ich Euch eine Ansicht von meinem Büro.
Wie gefällt Euch dieselbe?
Nun betrachtet mal meinen recht langen Brief.
Hier gibt’s fast nichts Neues.
Am Sonntag war ich in Bremerhaven
und habe die Europa besichtigt.
Herzliche Grüße von Haus zu Haus

As the late morning sun climbs higher over St. Louis, UP PJCPB 13 sweeps around the curve beneath the towering factory walls, streaking through the industrial corridor with UP 6079 leading a 10-car business train made up of Union Pacific’s streamlined heritage fleet cars. Navigating the city was no challenge for the stockholder special, having green signals all the way south before even crossing the river for a crew change.
J'ai toujours vu ce costume cravate comme un uniforme et je n'ai jamais vraiment aimé les uniformes.
Designed by the Los Angeles architectural firm of Hunt, Eager & Burns, this 5,400 sq. ft. Arts and Crafts style mansion was built in 1910 for Decatur businessman William J. Grady and his first wife, Sarah. The 11-room house continued to be home for Grady after he divorced Sarah in 1921, married Esther Bonney in 1926 and even after Esther died in 1961. They had no children. Indeed, the second family to live at No. 3 Millikin Place didn't move in until the year after the one-time president of Faries Mfg. Co. died in 1968 at age 92.
The W. J. Grady House holds the distinction of being the first house to be completed on Millikin Place, located along the north edge of the historic James Millikin House and property shown earlier in this series (see my album: Macon County, Illinois).
The core characteristics of the Arts and Crafts movement are a belief in craftsmanship which stresses the inherent beauty of the material, the importance of nature as inspiration, and the value of simplicity, utility, and beauty.
The W. J. Grady House is an architecturally significant property in the Decatur Historic District, a residential historic district in the Millikin Heights neighborhood of Decatur. The district encompasses the city's historic Near West and Southwest neighborhoods and was formed beginning in the 1850s and continuing through the 1920s. The Decatur Historic District was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
Decatur is the seat of Macon County. The city was founded in 1829 and is situated along the Sangamon River and Lake Decatur in central Illinois. Decatur has an economy based on industrial and agricultural commodity processing and production. The city is home of private Millikin University and public Richland Community College.
Decatur's estimated population for 2019 was 70,746, making Decatur the thirteenth-most populous city in Illinois, and the state's sixth-most populous city outside the Chicago metropolitan area.

In 1890, an eccentric businessman named Eugene Schieffelin released sixty European Starlings into Central Park, hoping to introduce every bird species mentioned in Shakespeare. His misguided notion has resulted in big problems over the one hundred plus years since. The Starling has been so successful and adaptive that is has spread throughout the continent and its huge flocks have reaped havoc in the farming and aviation industries. They have thwarted every attempt to reduce their numbers.
