The McGill lineup during their game against Concordia.
Not so sure why, but this looks like a strong photograph to me. Is it because of the compression at 300mm that give the impression of a really tight group of players ? Anyways, I hope you'll like it too.
The Physic Garden of the Worshipful Company of Barbers at Barber-Surgeons’ Hall is sheltered by a medieval bastion that was added to the City of London's Roman wall. It holds a selection of 45 plants from Gerard's Herbal, as Gerard was Master of their Company. The dash of colour is Rosa gallica var. officinalis, the Apothecary's Rose and the Red Rose of Lancaster. They have an excellent guide online the only information on site is the names and provenance of the plants.
Tokyo normally is known for some of it's tightly compact skyscrapers and apartment complexes, some clean, some filthy. Often accompanied by neon signs and lights. And then, amidst all that, there's this. An incredibly random decaying red castle that looks like it has nothing to do with Japan that it's almost funny. The Ohjo building.
I have no idea what this place was built for or why, but today it hosts techno raves for some reason (so I wouldn't have gone in even if it was open at this time). But having this random location in a large urban setting oddly enough provides a good contrast.
After an extensive hunt spanning months I found "that 1 shot" of Ohjo at night and narrowed out it's location and name. On 2 separate days, and 2 separate ends of my trip, I scouted out Ohjo for the options on compositions. This one being my first one. There wasn't anything particularly challenging to note. This is just a street side view looking up. The windows looked incredibly glossy which I guess adds to the architecture of the shot. You can barely see a neon sign on the top of the building on the left, there were other inactive lights that I edited out, and ofcourse the only other thing that needed editing was ofcourse, the ever repulsive and perpetual white sky. Raised the clarity and lowered the exposure. Finding a balance on the sakura branch (not so much the blossoms, just the branch itself) also proved a bit time consuming, but you can't rush art.
I wonder how many people will realize this is Tokyo before I say it, cause it looks NOTHING like it.
Thanks to my wife for quickly creating a properly-scaled plunger for this shot.

Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in the Trinity Alexander Nevsky (Akatovsky Trinity-Alexandrovsky) monastery - an Orthodox women's stauropegial monastery in the village of Akatovo, Klinsky district, Moscow region.
The monastery was founded as a female community in 1889 by the poor merchant of peasant origin Fedor Osipovich Zakharov in his estate in memory of the abolition of serfdom and in the name of patron saint Alexander II. In 1890, the community was officially registered by the Holy Synod. The management of the community was entrusted to the nun of the Novoalekseevsky monastery of Eutyches.
August 30, 1892 on the day of remembrance of St. Alexander Nevsky stone was laid stone Alexander Nevsky Cathedral. The temple was built in pseudo-Russian style by the architect A. S. Kaminsky for six years.
At the beginning of the 20th century, there were about seventy sisters in the monastery. After 1917, the natives were forced to declare themselves an agricultural commune (artel), which allowed the monastery to exist until 1927. It is known that the persecuted father Varlaam Dmitrovsky took refuge in the monastery for some time.
In 1927 the monastery was closed. Some of the nuns moved to with. Mokrush Istrinsky district. They continued to maintain a statutory lifestyle, to remain in one mind, having only one desire-salvation of the soul.
Services in the church of Alexander Nevsky continued until 1933. On the territory of the former monastery, there was a recreation center of the NKVD and warehouses of this organization.
Since 1948, the pioneer camp "Torch" operated on the territory of the monastery.
In 2000, by decree of His Holiness Patriarch Alexy II, the Patriarchal Compound was established at the church of the Holy Prince Alexander Nevsky of the former monastery.
In 2007, part of the buildings was officially transferred to the Russian Orthodox Church as the Patriarchal Compound; the monastery complex was assigned to the Zaikonospassky monastery in Moscow and was restored with its active help.
Собор Александра Невского в Троицком Александро-Невском (Акатовский Троице-Александровский) монастыре — православном женском ставропигиальном монастыре в деревне Акатово Клинского района Московской области.
Монастырь основан как женская община в 1889 году небогатым купцом крестьянского происхождения Фёдором Осиповичем Захаровым в его имении в память об отмене крепостного права и во имя святого-покровителя Александра II. В 1890 году община была официально зарегистрирована Святейшим Синодом. Управление общиной было поручено инокине Новоалексеевского монастыря Евтихии.
30 августа 1892 года в день памяти св. Александра Невского был заложен каменный Александро-Невский собор. Храм сооружался в псевдорусском стиле по проекту архитектора А. С. Каминского шесть лет.
В начале XX века в обители было около семидесяти сестёр. После 1917 года насельницы были вынуждены объявить себя сельскохозяйственной коммуной (артелью), что позволило монастырю просуществовать до 1927 года. Известно, что в стенах монастыря некоторое время укрывался преследуемый отец Варлаам Дмитровский.
В 1927 г. монастырь был закрыт. Часть монахинь переселилась в с. Мокруша Истринского района. Они продолжали хранить уставной образ жизни, пребывать в единомыслии, имея одно лишь желание-спасение души.
Службы в храме Александра Невского продолжались до 1933 года. На территории бывшей обители располагались дом отдыха НКВД и склады этой организации.
С 1948 года на территории монастыря действовал пионерский лагерь «Факел».
В 2000 г. по указу Святейшего Патриарха Алексия II при храме святого благоверного князя Александра Невского бывшего монастыря было учреждено Патриаршее подворье.
В 2007 году часть построек официально передана Русской православной церкви в качестве Патриаршего подворья; монастырский комплекс был приписан к Заиконоспасскому монастырю Москвы и при его активной помощи восстанавливался.
This light weight compact SUV was presented in May 1968. The body is made of ABS plastic, and it was technically based on the 2CV.

The Méhari was available in a limited amount of colours: only eight different ones. This Méhari is delivered in Vert Montana, introduced in 1968, and used till the end in 1987.

The final to my future-auto exploration. This time, based on several retro-future compact-car designs (including by Syd Mead of course). Ironically, this is the only of the three that actually fits a full figure.
The purpose of the three cars was to look at what I consider the three main areas of consumer-cars in futuristic media: Luxury, Show, and Utility. I am disregarding Industrial and Military as I have made a ton of the former already and I don't really like the latter.
results of some extra work around the house.
