This was an idea of my Flickr friend Jim Hill. I already posted two of those images separately and he proposed that it could make a nice triptych if I included a third one with a modern digital look. He saw more in this triptych as well as he noted that the amount of people in the images could stand for the growing accessibility of photography. Kudos to you, Jim!

 

If you like this triptych, head over to Jim's page and leave him a few likes. If not, head over there all the more and find something you like. His night images from Chicago stand out and are among the most interesting work here on Flickr.

 

This also concludes my series of images from Corfu. Tomorrow, a series in Frankfurt will start.

Krzywiń is a small town in the province Greater Poland, with approximately 1,700 inhabitants. It was a private clergy town belonging to the Benedictine abbot in Lubin. The first preserved mention of Krzywiń as a town comes from 1272. In 1382, the city was destroyed during domestic fights, the reconstruction took place half a century later. In 1447, the location privilege was renewed. The center of the development was a Market Square with a town hall (the present one comes from 1905) in the south-eastern frontage. In the middle of the Market Square there is a statue of St. Wawrzyniec street and the frontages are built with houses from the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries.

The market was revitalized in 2014 and is a major tourist attraction.

Krzywiń jest małym miastem w woj. wielkopolskim, liczącym około 1700 mieszkańców. Było prywatnym miastem duchownym, należącym do opata benedyktynów w Lubiniu. Pierwsza zachowana wzmianka o Krzywiniu jako mieście pochodzi z 1272 roku. W 1382 roku miasto zostało zniszczone podczas walk domowych, odbudowa nastąpiła pół wieku później. W 1447 miało miejsce odnowienie przywileju lokacyjnego. Ośrodkiem zabudowy był czworoboczny rynek z ratuszem ( obecny pochodzi z 1905 roku) w pierzei południowo-wschodniej. Na środku Rynku znajduje się figura św. Wawrzyńca a pierzeje zabudowane są domami z przełomu XIX i XX wieku.

Rynek był rewitalizowany w roku 2014 i jest dużą atrakcją turystyczną.

Photo 3 from the Des Moines Series

 

Mural on a building side in downtown Des Moines, Iowa

 

"You can almost hear her gasp!

 

A blonde woman from a vintage comic strip looks in wide-eyed shock at the graffiti spreading across the wall of a building downtown. ....

 

Weber ....The artist is known for politically and socially charged artwork along the lines of the current exhibition he guest-curated at Moberg Gallery, which helped arrange the Workspace commission.

 

But the new mural’s message is more subtle, he said. The blonde woman represents “the overall American consumer” or a “more traditional” Des Moines citizen reacting to downtown’s rapid growth. Partially hidden among the graffiti tags are Dopey from Disney’s “Snow White” and a pair of Smurfs, whose woodland habitat is threatened by development.

 

“In any city in America, there are murals everywhere. In Oakland, you can’t go two blocks without seeing one,” Weber said, praising downtown Des Moines’ own murals by artists Chris Vance, Van Holmgren and others. “Hopefully, in another year or two, we’ll have twice as many.”

 

Further development and change of perspective, in life and in creativity is always a gain for yourself and also for the people with whom you are in communication. The photo is a small project in which new ideas were implemented. Thank you for the support and implementation by my friend.

and the change of light and color

this photo was captured just a quarter of an hour earlier - still, blue is dominating ...

I came across this little pocket of "bush" at the ocean reef marina redevelopment. This little gem lies beside the path I skateboard on and is just inside the fence of the development site. It will not remain there much longer as the bulldozers are already clearing this area of the dunes. Ive made a few trips over the fence to capture this magical scene. The canopy is only about 2 m off the ground and beneath it there are open passages which you can crawl under and provide protection for little birds and mammals. the ground is Limestone covered in soil and moss. I took my macro lense in there and got some wonderful shots of this area. If you sit long enough you can see all the insects crawling and flying around. It is a magical little world and very therapeutic to lie there watching. The shame is it wont be there for much longer. I will miss this lovely place when its gone. This is a shot taken at a very low angle focusing on a small plant growing in a hollow in the limestone. Beautiful miniature world.

Amid overdevelopment along a busy freight and commuter rail corridor, Utah Railway's RUT312 local passes through CP C784 Salt Lake City with 24 cars on Oct. 29, 2022.

I’ve been thinking recently that there is something missing from flickr, (well something that I haven’t found yet). A kind of place (group) that has the ability to inspire, to welcome experimentation, a place that has a lot more depth than the usual shallow resting place for hundreds of images. I want equality, a place that isn’t run by power obsessed admin's, a place that isn’t a all closed network of buddies, a place that welcomes true thought, true learning, true experimentation. I want to visit to contribute, to experiment, to crit others work, to have a balanced group of people that respect others values. I want a place that doesn’t have any irritating insecure people trying to tell you how good they are. Yes I'm wanting a lot and I do get these things from different groups (id say about 3 or 4 that I visit regularly) but I want them all in one place.

 

To be honest, I would like to cherry pick the people I value (for many reasons) and get them together and create a new group that would be fantastic. But I also don’t want to upset anybody…and god not another group, please no not more groups.

  

I also have been wondering if there isn’t a better way of developing ideas, sparking inspiration. For me I would love to get more involved in a discussion-based group concerning the ideas behind photography. Kind of the deeper physiological elements to why we take photos, what the viewer feels, presenting challenging concepts, blar blar blar. I feel that to push in these directions is fascinating. As some of you may have observed, I've been trying to get this type of thing going in the threads of some groups, but it doest seem to be working. What I'm asking here I suppose is does anybody know of any groups that offer this type of thing or do I have to set one up, or do I try and push one of the groups I'm involved in into this direction? Also I wonder if there is any others out there, who are committed enough and have the desire to challenge them selves, push themselves in different directions. I only know of a few people here on flicker that I ‘Guess’ would welcome this type of direction but id truly love to meet more. This isn’t about just image quality (that is a given) its about ideas, experimentation, forging new ground (if that’s possible)

 

Anyway, any thoughts out there?

 

Note: this is taken on Constantine beach at sunset this summer. I got down very low and used a polarizer to maintain the foreground leading lines. Anyway I hope you like it.

Tucked into the mountains of Iwate Prefecture near the under visited, stunning Sanriku Coast in eastern Japan is the Iwate Development Railway.

 

Established in 1939, the railway operated passenger and limestone transport from its mine in Iwate Ishibashi, to the cement plant at the port city of Ofunato for a total of 11km in length. The line suffered severe damage during the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. In fact, photos of debris covering the top of this bridge can be found online. The railway was brought back just 8 months after the quake and has been going strong since.

 

Two trains, pulled by DD56 Centercabs, shuttle 18 car limestone trains back and forth from the mine to the cement plant around 12-18 times a day. Here a midday empty train crosses over the Sakari River bridge bound for the mine for another load of rocks.

Adelaide Crescent is a mid-19th-century residential development in Hove, part of the English city and seaside resort of Brighton and Hove. Conceived as an ambitious attempt to rival the large, high-class Kemp Town estate east of Brighton, the crescent was not built to its original plan because time and money were insufficient. Nevertheless, together with its northerly neighbour Palmeira Square (with which it is continuous), it forms one of Hove's most important architectural set-pieces. Building work started in 1830 to the design of Decimus Burton. The adjacent land was originally occupied by "the world's largest conservatory", the Anthaeum; its collapse stopped construction of the crescent, which did not resume until the 1850s. The original design was modified and the crescent was eventually finished in the mid-1860s. Together with the Kemp Town and Brunswick Town estates, the crescent is one of the foremost pre-Victorian residential developments in the Brighton area: it has been claimed that "outside Bath, [they] have no superior in England".[1] The buildings in the main part of Adelaide Crescent are Grade II* listed. Photograph taken - December 2014.

After 2 years of development, the Huayra Roadster was officially unveiled at the 2017 Geneva Motor Show.[13]

 

The over-all appearance of the car has changed, with the most obvious being the removable top (hence the Roadster name). This part of the vehicle is also its key element. The design of the rear is also different, with new eyelid-like fixed flaps that continue with the design and eventually end on the rear lights. The rear engine cover also has a new shape to adapt to the roadster form and now has vents for efficient cooling. The wheels are unique and specifically constructed for the car. The car has conventional doors instead of the Gull-wing doors of the coupé as they are impossible to fit on an open top car while maintaining the low weight.

 

The vehicle has a twin-turbocharged M158 V12 engine as the coupé, but it now has a total power output of 764 PS (562 kW; 754 hp) at 6,200 rpm and 1,000 N⋅m (738 lbf⋅ft) of torque at 2,400 rpm. All of this power is delivered to the rear wheels via a 7-speed automated manual transmission by Xtrac. The car now uses a hydraulic and electronic activation system with carbon synchronizers. Bosch has also contributed in the construction of the car and the car uses their ECU system. The weight is now 70 kg (154 lb) lighter, for a total of 1,280 kg (2,820 lb), making it the first roadster lighter than the coupe version. Only 100 will be made, all of which have already been sold.[13] The tyre supplier is Pirelli, with P-Zero tyres. . Pagani has also used a new material for the Roadster called carbon triax, which is a tri-axis fiberglass meshed with carbon-fibre power bands.

 

Pagani states that the car produces 816 kg (1,800 lb) of downforce or 1.8 lateral G-force.
