When I visited the Palace of Versailles in Versailles, France I was lucky enough to view the fountain spectacle. Every fountian was spouting water for less than an hour. This only happens a few times a year due tothe shear amount of water need. With over 50 fountains, it takes about 951,000 gallons of water to make the show happen, pretty incredible considering these were all built in the 1660s.
Perhaps a greeting between two parents at shift change. I say "perhaps" because they both look pretty soiled, which isn't consistent with one of them just having come from the ocean.

Futura display, Renner 1932 (woodtype) and Simplex by Foundry Olive, inspired by Futura, circa 1930.
Christmas display in the Wallendahl shop window in Bergen. The display shows scenes with Norwegian Julenisser.
Julenisse plays an important role in the Norwegian (and Scandinavian) Christmas tradition. The role is similar as Santa Claus or "Father Christmas" and Saint Nicolas / Sinterklaas in other countries. Julenisse is a gnome or elf with a red pointed cap and long gray beard that brings the presents. Youngsters know the little man well, although they have never actually seen him. He lives in the barn loft. Julenisse sees and hears everything. Children watch their manners, and on Christmas Eve they tiptoe to the loft with a big bowl of rice pudding for Julenisse's supper. Although they peer into all dark corners, they never even glimpse the red cap. But by morning the pudding is always gone and the bowl polished clean.
Make/Craft display at Weirdstuff. It had been sprawling over a second display shelf-- and was that much more impressive-- before they saw me coming with the camera.
M48 Medium Tank on display at a VFW hall in Harford County, MD. I believe it is an earlier model, since it lacks the louvered engine compartment doors on the rear of the hull. Okay, armor experts, enlighten me.
The bird cage (circa 1972) was a gift I picked out for my mom in Tuni while on a school trip (I was an oil brat). I talked her into giving it back to me.
The Biennale Arte is a biennial world event of contemporary art that takes place at the Arsenale and the Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Giardini, Venice. The first exhibition was held there in 1895 and each country displays their exhibit in their own national pavilion, each of which was built at different times in a contemporary or classical style.

I purchased this display with 10 rolls of film. After 4 years I finally have obtained another 38 rolls to complete the 48 roll set.
Sometimes film is harder to find than the cameras they went into!
November 22 will mark 50 years since the JFK Assassination. This display invites onlookers to view memorabilia of the Assassination of John F. Kennedy, check-out books, and also to pen their memories of that day and post to the bulletin board.

We went to London the other weekend. This annual trip started as a ladies one day shopping trip, intended to raise funds for Slaithwaite Brass Band. Jayne’s family have a long association with the band. Thirteen years ago I started going on this trip, one bloke amongst, around, 50 women. Eight years ago we persuaded Debbie Booth to organise it as an overnight trip. I’m still the only bloke beside the driver, Richard, from Stotts, who has taken us many times. We stay at the Cumberland Hotel at Marble Arch, very central and very nice. It’s a fantastic value trip and once you have a place you don’t give it up. After a clear run down we were at the hotel around 11.45am and we were soon off on foot with the camera gear. The light was terrible, light grey sky bordering on white, rubbish for the daylight shots.
We didn’t have an agenda, we just meandered, no evening show, we just kept walking. For the first time I had taken a small tripod, a bit of a cheap thing but it’s light. We walked on the South Bank as darkness fell, the trouble is you can only target one place in the best light, before total darkness. We were by tower bridge at the time, I wanted to shoot the buildings around City Hall, curious if I could get anything worthwhile. It’s been done to death but I don’t look at other photos before I go, I like to just give it my best shot. It would require a bit of luck to have a situation that produced something out of the ordinary – or more skill than I have.
We worked our way in the dark across to The City. The Lloyds building was another target, again I gave it my best shot – for a first attempt. I had a good time and had a chat with a few curious onlookers. . On our way back to Marble Arch I photographed the big department store window displays and the Christmas lights, trying to find some colour in a drab day. I think it was John Lewis that had the Penguins in every window, very funny. Jayne knew about them from a TV ad, I don’t watch telly so they were new to me.
We were out early on Sunday but again the light was awful. We should count our blessings really, we have had dry and generally nice weather most years on this trip. Dotted around London are the Paddington Bear models which we had read about on our way down. We came across quite a few, mostly with a queue of people wanting their photos taken with Paddington. There were also a lot of model, new shape Routemaster buses, dotted around. It’s the Year of the Bus apparently, they have been painted by well-known or aspiring artists. The added a splash of colour to a very grey day. We walked out to Elephant and Castle, never having been before. It’s a bit run down but I was aiming at a tall building which turned out to be the Strata Building. I had to do the best I could but as you can see, the light was crap. The Strata has three, token gesture windmills built into the roof but you have to be a distance away to see them.
When I went for a stroll before breakfast, I encountered this Pied Crow (Corvus albus) in the midst of an early morning display.
Can you believe how he's fluffed his neck and throat feathers? It's surely a sign of some kind; my guess is it concerns territory, dominance and/or sex. Heck, let's just cover all the bases and throw in cardiovascular exercise, artistic expression and spirituality.
