After departing the mainline at Colton this Skyline bound empty will pick up the Price River and follow it to Scofield Reservoir. Seen here arriving at the Inlet to Scofield Dam. Try as I might I could not find a name for the canyon this train traversed to arrive here.
Doc and I must drive over 130 miles one way, before we encounter our nearest stop lights. When we drop down out of the mountains into Palmer, Alaska (population 7, 300) - we can't wait to get our shopping done and return to our beloved cabin and the boreal forest that surrounds it.
Coal loads roll out of the cougar infested siding at Lockwood, where steep cliffs sandwich the tracks between the river. The new facility for grain and feed can be seen in the distance.
Good evening to all, here a hdr made by 3 photos. It is better to view in large size.

In the Marrakchi desert, there is an oasis called "the Break". You can spend a few days away from civilization, no electricity, no internet ...
On a day trip to Lake Clearwater to take some snow shots. We left before dawn so we could catch the morning sun on the mountains. Canterbury High Country June 27, 2015 New Zealand. It was -7c here!
Lake Clearwater is a place of relative peace and solitude. Motor powered craft are not permitted on the lake however rowboats, kayaks, and windsurfers can be used. The strong and consistent winds funnelling off the mountains are a slice of heaven for windsurfers.
A small village of around 100 holiday homes (or baches as they are called in New Zealand) are located on the ground that seperates Lake Clearwater from Lake Camp, a two minute walk away. Overnight camping is permitted at a basic reserve area situated on the South end of Lake Clearwater, providing toilet facilities and water (required to be boiled for drinking).

‘’Secure Contain Protect’’
A security guard of the SCP foundation is standing guard at an unnamed site of the SCP foundation. I got this idea in my head for while to make a story about the SCP Foundation with some original SCP’s and SCP’s wich are cannon in the SCP universe. For the ones who don’t know what the SCP Foundation is, it is a secret organization entrusted by governments around the globe to contain and study anomalous individuals, entities, locations, objects, and phenomena that defy natural law.
The existence of SCPs is kept secret by the SCP Foundation to prevent mass panic and related chaos, and to allow human civilization to function normally. When an SCP is discovered, the SCP Foundation deploys agents to either collect and transport the SCP to a Foundation facility, or to contain it at its location of discovery if transport is not possible. Once SCPs are contained, they are studied by Foundation scientists. Test subjects acquired by the Foundation (referred to as D-class) are used to interact with dangerous SCPs due to the danger posed by those SCPs and the expendability of the D-class.
Alltrough they didn't appeared in any of my brickfilms so far as I'm writing this, they did got mentioned. The SCP Foundation has been a inspiration to many of my concept which can been seen in various of my brickfilms, including Sigma Foundation, which appears in the ‘’Outbreak Series’’ and in Lego War: Battle Of Mo-Wol, Sigma Foundation is also loosely based on Black Mesa from the ‘’Half-Life game series’’ and other shady labs in general.
Although this is a mere concept, I’m not 100% if I want to make it into a brickfilm as I’m writing this it’s just a concept. But maybe in the future, however this might be possible as while writing this drafts are made about the overal storyline.

How far have we really progressed since the inception? Sometimes you just got to ask.
Do view on black if you can.
I am getting feedback that I'm going crazy with colors in my recent uploads. So here's something to compensate :) This was taken on new years eve from the Manhattan Bridge. After some scouting I found this to be the best location to photograph the mighty Brooklyn Bridge with the city at the background. However, it's a little tricky (can get annoying real quickly) since the bridge keeps vibrating due to the heavy traffic (resulting in blurry pictures). I took about 5 shots before getting one that's reasonable sharp. Do let me know how you like it!

“Man has gone out to explore other worlds and other civilizations without having explored his own labyrinth of dark passages and secret chambers, and without finding what lies behind doorways that he himself has sealed.”

This was taken on the same day and place as Beacon of Hope. This is the place where I along with my friend Jeremy got locked in, and had to be rescued by the police. Talk about being lost in photo-shoot!

The nine brave men and nine Heroines (Master of Manta 1420) - Manta Castle
LA SALA BARONALE
Questa sala era il centro della vita del castello in epoca medioevale. Era il luogo dove il signore esercitava le funzioni connesse alla gestione del feudo (amministrava la giustizia, emanava editti, riceveva messaggeri e ospiti illustri) e dove trascorreva insieme alle corte il tempo libero.
Nella scelta degli affreschi che la ornano, Valerano si ispirò al poema cavalleresco in
lingua francese “Le chevalier errant” scritto da Tommaso III, padre di Valerano.
In questa sala appare ben delineato il progetto politico, iconografico e culturale che fa del ciclo dalla Manta una delle tappe principali per lo studio della civiltà cortese e
dell’influsso della cultura francese in Italia. Alla corte dei Saluzzo si parlava francese, ci si vestiva alla parigina, si educavano i figli a Parigi e si collezionavano opere d’arte francesi.
Negli affreschi si narra di vicende eroiche, quanto inverosimili, di un mitico cavaliere che ad un certo punto, dopo una vita avventurosa e dedita ai piaceri mondani, approda al Palazzo della Dea Fortuna dove risiedono nove potenti principi dell’antichità e nove
eroine.
THE BARONIAL ROOM
This hall was the center of the castle's life in medieval times. It was the place where the Lord exercised the functions related to the management of the feud (administering justice, emanating edicts, receiving messengers and illustrious guests) and spending time with the courts.
In choosing the frescoes that adorn him, Valerano was inspired by the chivalrous poem
French language "Le chevalier errant" written by Thomas III, father of Valerano.
In this room, the political, iconographic and cultural project that makes the Manta cycle is one of the main stages for the study of polite civilization
Of the influence of French culture in Italy. Saluzzo's court was French, dressed in Paris, educated children in Paris, and French artworks were collected.
In frescoes, there are stories of heroic, unbelievable events, of a mythical knight who at some point, after an adventurous life and devoted to worldly pleasures, arrives at the Palace of Goddess Fortune where nine powerful principles of antiquity and nine heroines reside.
Ankhneferen Bust Sculpture - The Last Prince Of Mars by Daniel Arrhakis (2025)

There is another History that the Great Pyramid of Khafre hid in ancient enigmatic records carved into its stones, the Dynastic Period Of The Great Pyramid of Onyx.
An advanced civilization, that predated the Early Egyptian Dynastic Period. Aknut was the first pharaoh born on Earth, but coming from the ancient lineages of the last dynasty on Mars ...
Menkherthot the Last Pharaoh of Mars or Her Desher as the dynasties of Mars called their planet made the difficult decision to leave the dying planet with much of his entourage and part of the population.
In the last ages, uninterrupted sandstorms while the atmosphere has become increasingly rarefied and poisonous, eventually made life impossible and the great caves of Her Desher were no longer an option.
Ankhneferen, her first son, refused to leave Mars and the last ones that stayed behind on the desert planet.
The Pharaoh, despite being against it, understood the courageous decision that his firstborn and main heir had made and to compensate for his absence he brought with him a sculpted bust of his son's face.
The Bust is now part of the collection found and is on display at the Grand Nile Museum , a recent building opened in 2143 on an island in the center of the Nile River and subsequent to The Grand Egyptian Museum of 2023.
Despite the Autonomous Communities of Mars requesting their return, this was always refused by higher authorities on Earth, such as the Federal Court of the Outer Colonies.

"Au début quand quelques microbes seulement pénétraient dans le corps, on ne s'en apercevait pas. Mais chaque microbe se divisait en deux et donnait deux microbes, et ainsi de suite, très rapidement, de sorte qu'en peu de temps il y en avait des millions et des millions dans le corps, et alors l'homme était malade. Il avait une maladie, et le nom de la maladie dépendait de la sorte de microbe qui était en lui. [...]
Or, la chose étrange, c'est qu'il y avait toujours des microbes nouveaux qui venaient se loger dans le corps des hommes. Il y a longtemps, longtemps, longtemps quand il n'y avait que quelques hommes sur la terre, il y avait peu de maladies. Mais quand les hommes ont été de plus en plus nombreux et qu'ils se sont entassés dans les grandes villes civilisées, de nouvelles maladies sont apparues, de nouvelles sortes de microbes ont pénétrés dans leur corps. C'est ainsi que des millions et des milliards d'êtres humains ont péri."
>>> Jack London.......in: La peste écarlate (1912)
" A man did not notice at first when only a few of these germs got into his body. But each germ broke in half and became two germs, and they kept doing this very rapidly so that in a short time there were many millions of them in the body. Then the man was sick. He had a disease, and the disease was named after the kind of a germ that was in him. [...]
Now this is the strange thing about these germs. There were always new ones coming to live in men's bodies. Long and long and long ago, when there were only a few men in the world, there were few diseases. But as men increased and lived closely together in great cities and civilizations, new diseases arose, new kinds of germs entered their bodies. Thus were countless millions and billions of human beings killed."
