Fuck me.
I hate when I take a 365 shot and the next days shot looks kind of like the previous days shot.
I mean – I try to mix it up with face shots, shots with my kids, shots of my crotch, shots of me hiding in a forest, shots on the beach, or even shots of me laying face down in a busy urban intersection.
At least they are all different. I mean consecutive day in and day out different.
But this motherfucker you are staring at? It’s like I just got up from the previous day and walked 5 yards to the left and took another shot.
Which isn’t true. They are separated by like 24 hours or so. But same location. Same treatment to the photo. Same stupid subject (me).
Fuck… I might as well be wearing the same fuckshit underwear.
Maybe I am?
I BETTER NOT BE!!!!!
(I’m really not).
In any case, I almost broke my back in the making of this asshole photo. (I love making fun of my own photos and calling them names).
I took my camera outside of my apartment complex ONCE AGAIN and decided I wanted to do a photo outside.
If I had it my way, I’d do every photo outside. I think I’ve covered every area of my 900 square foot apartment. Can you get any more boring? Another face shot? Maybe I’ll fake quitting again and upset everyone?
Stupid.
So as my kid sleeps in her little girl bedroom I walk outside with my camera and tripod like an undercover sleuth. Where do I go? What do I do? I can’t walk farther than 50 yards or else I am a piece of shit father. The last thing I need is the Child Protective Services called on me because I decided to go 3 blocks away to take a photo and a neighbor turned me in.
Well tough guy, I decided to pull off this yoga maneuver in the middle of the walkway of my complex.
My ass isn’t no fucking Madonna… this shit HURT!!! I swear if someone came by and just tapped me on the back I’d fall down and split into 2 pimpexposures. Then you would have 2 separate photostreams of my head and feet. And we’d hate each other. And you’d be partial to one or the other because that’s how people are.
Meh (I hate that expression).

Nestled around the Vltava River, Prague survived virtually intact, while other European cities were flattened during WWII. This is a view of part of Prague Castle and the spires of St. Vitus Cathedral, taken within the world’s largest ancient castle complex and still the seat of political power. The castle was built during the 9th Century and has evolved architecturally as a blend of Romanesque, Gothic, and even Spanish styles.
The police station complex was built in 1892 - 1893 and consisted of a Magistrate's Court Room, Courthouse, Strong Room, and Residence for the Officer in Charge, Charge Room, Single Men's Quarters, Cells, and Stables. It cost 1800 to construct and replaced the original Police Station and Cells that had been built in Bridges Street in 1881 - 1882.
The Police took charge of this building on the 16th of May 1893. A new Magistrates Room was built in 1902 and the Police Station was extended in 1926. The Court sat for the first time on Friday the 13th October 1893 and was noted as being the fourth one in the colony.
Sgt Wright was Peterborough's most famous police officer, known as the 'Swagman's Friend'. He built a shelter shed for men passing through town looking for work in the 1930s. In 12 months, he arranged comfort, food, and shelter to 3272 travellers.
The Police Station and Courthouse is still used by the South Australian Police Department but is not available for inspection.
Peterborough, South Australia:
Peterborough was part of the Eldoratrilla Run from 1851 until the Hundred of Yongala was broken up for selection in 1871. Farm land was taken up in 1875 by a group of German settlers; Peter Doecke (after whom the town was named), Johann Koch, and Herman Rohde.
In 1880, while the railway was under construction from Port Pirie, Koch surveyed his land into town allotments and named it Petersburgh. The coast railway arrived from Port Pirie through Jamestown in February 1881, and the inland line from Burra through Terowie connected with it in May 1881, so within months of its foundation Petersburg - as the Post Office and South Australian Railways insisted on spelling it - became a major railway junction.
The town rose to prominence very quickly, and has remained the major population centre in the eastern half of the region. From its early development, Petersburg became a classic railway town in layout - like Gladstone and Quorn - with its main street parallel to the railway, and its principal hotels, banks, and commercial buildings clustered opposite the railway station. Petersburg's growth was assisted by the extension of the railway to Broken Hill in 1887, and by the construction of the Transcontinental Railway to Perth and the
Ghan line to Alice Springs in the early twentieth century, making it a strategic hub of the national railway network.
Under Railways Commissioner William Webb, a large railway maintenance workshop was built at Petersburg, and a suburb of railway workers housing went up at the western end of town, using innovative cast concrete construction techniques developed by Adelaide builder Walter Torode.
In 1918 the Nomenclature Committee renamed the town Peterborough, oblivious to the irony that its German founder had originally given it an English name, and it had only been
made to look German by a bureaucratic mis-spelling. During the 1930s depression, a gold crushing battery was built at Peterborough to encourage local mining. The town has lost most of its railway function since the 1970s, but remains an important regional centre.

Having every emotion possible today. We do school at the park on Wednesdays and my daughter carved faces into her crayons.... I was thankful to be reminded that complex emotions are a beautiful thing!
Happy Bokeh Wednesday! SOOC
Taken at the edge of a mixed group of trees, I was taken by the left to right sweep of the branches as they were lit up by the morning sun. Shot at Little Wittenham Wood, South Oxfordshire.

Dining table with a frosted glass top lit by 448 LEDs that respond, in a complex and gentle fashion, to input generated by motion above the table while we eat.
This table was demonstrated at the MakerFaire ( makezine.com/faire/ ) in April 2006. More info here.
Update (May, 2007): We have some new interactive coffee tables. You can even buy one if you want to.
Update (June, 2008): Schematic released as a free design.
Het laatste Tsjechische metersporige trambedrijf, dat van Liberec, wordt sinds 1990 geleidelijk omgebouwd tot normaalspoor. In 2001 waren de stadslijnen klaar. Het laatst omgebouwde traject kreeg alleen normaalspoor, het overige deel is drierailig. De interlokale lijn naar Jablonec heeft nog smalspoor, maar is op de recent vernieuwde delen voorbereid voor normaalspoor.
De in- en uitrit van de remise is uiteraard drierailig uitgevoerd. Hier - maar ook elders in de stad - liggen wissels met drie tongen. Voorbij het wissel ligt een nog zeldzamere railconstructie, waar smalspoortrams van gezamenlijk gebruik van de rechter rail naar de linker rail overgaan. Deze constructie kan het zonder bewegende delen stellen: ook zonder wisseltong worden de wielstellen van een smalspoortram op het hartstuk naar links gedwongen. Zulke eigenaardigheden komen om de hoek kijken daar waar een drierailig systeem in twee richtingen bereden moet kunnen worden. Het alternatief is een vierrailige trambaan.
De uitrijdende gerenoveerde Tatra heeft voorop een rode sticker '1435'. De smalspoortrams hebben een blauwe sticker '1000'
The last Czech metre-gauge tramway network, that of Liberec, is in a conversion process to standard gauge since 1990. The urban lines were completed in 2001. The last reconstructed line is purely standard gauge, while the rest got three-rail track. The interurban line to Jablonec kept its narrow gauge track, but the recently renovated parts are prepared for standard gauge.
Of course, the depot entrance and exit have three-rail track with suiting points. Beyond the track switch is an even more uncommon device: a crossover for narrow gauge trams to change from right to left shared rail. It has no moving parts, because the left wheels force the right wheels to choose the right path on the switch diamond.
The renovated Tatra tram leaving the depot has a red tag '1435' on the front. Narrow gauge trams carry a blue version with the number 1000
Some bodywork parts on an F1 car can get very complicated to the point that you need to be very careful on how you store it when it's not on the car ! It's a beautiful piece of carbon fibre, expecially with the green livery of the 2004 Jaguar R5

NGC 2264 and the associated Cone Nebula are part of a huge nebular complex in Monoceros. This lies about 2,700 light years away. The cone shape (at upper left) is formed by a dark absorption nebula positioned in front of a faint nebula of ionized hydrogen. The entire region is an active site of new star formation.
First attempt at this part of this sky. Found it pretty tricky to process as there is a lot happening here. I will try for more, longer exposures next month.

From Wikipedia : "Wat Pho (Thai: วัดโพธิ์), also spelt Wat Po, is a Buddhist temple complex in the Phra Nakhon District, Bangkok, Thailand. It is on Rattanakosin Island, directly south of the Grand Palace. Known also as the Temple of the Reclining Buddha, its official name is Wat Phra Chetuphon Vimolmangklararm Rajwaramahaviharn (Thai: วัดพระเชตุพนวิมลมังคลารามราชวรมหาวิหาร; rtgs: Wat Phra Chettuphon Wimonmangkhlaram Ratchaworamahawihan; The more commonly known name, Wat Pho, is a contraction of its older name Wat Photaram (Thai: วัดโพธาราม; rtgs: Wat Photharam).
The temple is first on the list of six temples in Thailand classed as the highest grade of the first-class royal temples. It is associated with King Rama I who rebuilt the temple complex on an earlier temple site, and became his main temple where some of his ashes are enshrined. The temple was later expanded and extensively renovated by Rama III. The temple complex houses the largest collection of Buddha images in Thailand, including a 46 m long reclining Buddha. The temple is considered the earliest centre for public education in Thailand, and the marble illustrations and inscriptions placed in the temple for public instructions has been recognised by UNESCO in its Memory of the World Programme. It houses a school of Thai medicine, and is also known as the birthplace of traditional Thai massage which is still taught and practiced at the temple."
