I dont know how this outfit wound up on the back of a mehendi wearing child in Machar Colony. Nor do I know what it is intended to be. My educated guess would be a teletubby.
Small rock shelter - possibly a guard fortification or lookout - built by the Fremont culture in Nine Mile Canyon, Utah. It sits on a ledge about 15 feet above the canyon floor. 20 February 2023.
The next photo shows the cat scratch tree. Willow loves it and often sleeps on the top platform when I work on my computer at the weekend or late night. The blinds are very useful in the summer, but are looking nice in the winter as well. A new carpet was one of the rare things we bought last week to make the home office more comfortable. Willow is a bit scared of it and always walks around it, but that’s just a matter of time.

Images from my exhibition "Culture and Concrete" - I was invited to show W-wa project at Kordegarda Gallery in Warsaw. After six years of exploration my archive counts hundreds or even thousands of pictures that register particular cases of urban fetishism ordered by typologies but the lyrical aspect of this encounter with city was always the most important one for me. In this show I wanted to focus on aesthetical aspect of knowledge, on the possibility of seeing culture as pleasure. The show is build from three main elements: My pictures from project W-wa converted into Black and White (the original archive is in color), pictures from Edmund Kupiecki album from late 60's - converted into bicolor images (original images are BW) and books arranged as floating rainbow. The expo will be open until July 8th.

Virú-Gallinazo Culture double-chambered sculpted bottle representing a warrior with headdress and face paint holding a baton and a square shield with geometric decorations.
Formative Period (1250 BC - 1 AD).
Lima: Museo Larco
www.museolarco.org/catalogo/ficha.php?id=44386
The Virú culture was discovered by Rafael Larco Hoyle in the Virú Valley in 1933. In their ceramics the negative decoration technique dominated. The red designs were covered with very fine clay, while the parts that were left uncovered darkened during firing.
The Huaca Rajada in Sipán, located about 30 km east of Chiclayo. It is a Moche culture site which was discovered in 1987. The site contains the Huaca Rajada, a Moche pyramid built before 300 CE, and a later pyramid from a different culture. Moche pyramids were built out of adobe bricks and thus are exposed to severe erosion, in spite of the arid climate. A total of 14 Moche tombs have been found at the Huaca Rajada.
In the Huaca Rajada, the fabulous Tumba del Señor de Sipán (Tomb of the Lord of Sipán) and several other tombs were found. This tomb is perhaps the most important Moche archaeological site because of the quantity and quality of artifacts found here and because the site had never been disturbed and looted. The contents of all the graves found here are exhibited in the fabulous Museo Tumbas Reales de Sipán (Royal Tombs Museum of Sipán) in Lambayeque which opened in 2002.

I ate them while they were living, wriggling, and looking at me. They wriggled as they went down before wriggling their last as they where burnt to death by my stomach acids.
The practice of eating small "shirao" fish live is a traditional way to celebrate the arrival of spring in Japan.
Is it cruel? Is it any more or less cruel than a beefburger?
Hong Kong Transport - Trucks
The Hong Kong Truck Culture
The number of Trucks, Vans* and Special Purpose Vehicles (Light, Medium & Heavy) registered + licenced in Hong Kong seems to fluctuate between 120,000 - 125,000 vehicles and presumably new trucks registered are offset by old trucks being retired or sold over the border in China.
*Vans are classified as Light Goods Vehicles and are not shown in this album
In Hong Kong Trucks are classified as GOODS VEHICLES By the Transport Department - see below
☛Light Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight not exceeding 5.5 tonnes.
☛Medium Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight exceeding 5.5 tonnes but not exceeding 24 tonnes.
☛Heavy Goods Vehicles - Goods vehicles of permitted gross vehicle weight exceeding 24 tonnes but not exceeding 38 tonnes.
The major truck types you tend to see in urban areas are trucks carrying construction materials or waste, dump trucks, concrete mixers and all sizes of delivery trucks... outside of the urban areas it is container trucks and large trucks carrying construction materials.
The following brands of Trucks can be seen on the streets of Hong Kong and include:-
Beiben ✚ Bell ✚ CAMC ✚ CNHTC ✚ DAF ✚ Dennis ✚ Dong Feng ✚ FAW ✚ Fuso ✚ Foton ✚ Ford ✚ Hino ✚ Howo ✚ Hyundai ✚ Isuzu ✚ Iveco ✚ JAC ✚ Kato ✚ KIA ✚ Liebherr ✚ MAN ✚ Mercedes Benz ✚ Mitsubishi ✚ Nissan ✚ Renault ✚ Scania ✚ Shacman ✚ Sinotruk ✚ Suzuki ✚ Toyota ✚ UD ✚ Volvo ✚ Zoomlion
Hong Kong is a brand conscious place even for trucks (!) hence the popularity of the European brands, Scania and Man are very popular and even the older trucks look the business and they are utterly reliable.
Isuzu is the market leader in terms of sale volume for all types of trucks.

This is the entrance way to a specialist shop selling only condoms in Harajuku.
It seems to sell many different types and was popular with couples.
If there were a specialist condom shop in London, would it be popular with couples? I think not. I think that the only shops of this type are sex goods shopts that also sell vibrators and whips and are the sort of place that people are very furtive about entering, and do not stop by with their girlfriend so often. Not sure. This one was rather like a sweet shop /candy store.
The Cobham Bus Museum open day and bus rally held in April 1986 included a gathering in Cobham village. Among the participating buses and coaches was Ensignbus AEC Regent III / Weymann RT3232 KYY961 seen in Cobham village.

I swear there is no point in owning a car in Amsterdam. Go by bike! Throughout the city there are gigantic parking garages for bikes only and this happens to be one of them.
