Inside the city, it's easy for residents to connect and work together. Outside in the forgotten zones however, things are very different. There are small groups eking out an existence, separated from each other by disaster and ruin. In order for these folks to get what they need, they need someone to connect them. Someone to find them, and report back to the city to ask for help. They may not directly deliver goods, or shuttle people to distant locations, but the service they do supply is invaluable. Without them, many people would never be able to make it on their own. Despite otherwise being law abiding citizens, the activities of these "Connectors" are highly frowned upon by the establishment of District 18. While they find it easy enough to control a closed population, the outliers pose a potential threat to their authority.
While I built this purely for fun, I'm still planning to enter it in the District 18 Speeder Bike Contest. There are so many great designs being entered, it'll be fun to be part of such a terrific group.
A day of out on the streets of Cardiff yesterday for some photography, specifically to take abstract pictures of this hotel currently under construction. The Project Manager even stopped for a chat and explained various aspects of its construction.
The grid like pattern of the windows reminded me of the classic Connect 4 game.
Connect Four: Patagonia has lakes and glaciers that intertwine with mountain ranges and forest, for a beautiful result

This trio of green frogs was in a big puddle made by a bulldozer - the roadbed where I was wasn't good enough to support the machine so it made a big mess.
Ultra chilled.

Probably the first photo I took which was taking me out of the "point and shoot" mentality. It surprised me just how well photos can really be with proper depth of field control.

The Connector is completely free at all times. It has been much criticized for lack of direct income and limited coverage. It does loop through Over The Rhine, downtown and close to the river where the Bengals and Reds stadiums are located. A proposal to extend the route is pending but there is much opposition. I'm a frequent rider because it covers areas where I like to photograph, Unfortunately, I do drive to where I can get on board. Cincinnati, OH
