Als das Grundstück gekauft wurde, stand hier ein dichter Wald. Alles dunkel, kein Licht erreichte den Boden, wo dann auch nichts wuchs.
Als die ersten Bäume gefällt wurden hat sich der Hausherr gedacht, das er etwas für's Auge. Deshalb hat er überall so kleine Eyecatcher installiert. Die jetzt immer noch im Garten stehen.
All of that visible sea is the North Atlantic Ocean - and the distant high hills and cliffs are part of Orkney's southern Hoy Island.
In the middle distance is the Atlantic coastline of Orkney's "West Mainland".
This is written on the backside of the card:
In the world of fashion, Sindy sets the scene.
With four stylish, eyecatching outfits to choose from,
Sindy's all set to start her day.
I got the dress and kitten heels a long time ago, but didn't know they belonged together until much later. I called the shoes my "banana shoes" and Camilla (one of my favourite Sindys) was the only one who wore them.
Isn't this jacket marvelous!?

(Eyecatching primary color scheme going on here, with a touch of green foliage.)
Allium is a genus of monocotyledonous flowering plants that includes hundreds of species, including the cultivated onion, garlic, scallion, shallot, leek, and chives. The generic name Allium is the Latin word for garlic, and the type species for the genus is Allium sativum which means "cultivated garlic".
This flower is located in #crystalcity
What appears to be a naked woman on her bed saying to her dog, sorry, it's all gone, referring to the empty bowl at the right, is actually a fibreglass sculpture. I was across the street eating lunch and saw two men carrying this sculpture, from a distance it looked real, however, the odds of her being real were slim to none, but you never know! Being curious, I quickly finished my lunch and crossed the street to find out more. I was told the sculpture had been purchased the previous evening at an auction house by a second hand store called the Crow's Nest in Esquimalt BC Canada. The owners of the store couldn't resist buying it and since putting it outside their store it has attracted quite a bit of attention. The owner's have no idea who the sculptor was.

My tour up the Eureka Skydeck 88.
A little reflection of Melbourne as it is mirrored off one of the pylons.
A nothing shot really at the time, but became a bit more apparent when major icons in the city appeared to be more recognisable and eyecatching back the front. Some of these were St Paul's Cathedral and Flinders Station.
Anyway, thought I would give it a shot.

This years art installation by Nicole Evans and Patrick Farrell. Always on my calendar of images to take throughout the year. Nicole always kindly lets me know when it's up and ready to view, I took this a few weeks ago now and have only just got around to editing it.
Here's what the website says and a link to if you are interested in finding out more about UCA:
'Still enjoying working with found objects, Evans and Farrell offer a sculpture using old bicycles heading skyward into the blue of North Grand Pre. As always, whimsy and illusion figure strongly in their installation'.
The made up shot based on a friend's photo. It is quite intense and eyecatching when the rose was kept in colour when other part of the photo was almost BW.
That was looking South East across Orkney's sheltered "Scapa Flow" anchorage towards the island of Burray in an early June evening.
The rig at anchor on the left is the "Safe Boreas" oil-industry accommodation platform sheltering temporarily in Scapa Flow. Due to the recent large drop in crude-oil prices it is awaiting future gainful employment!
I hope you all have a colorful weekend!

Art Blue Metal 58. Wax, metal, heat, & rust make this texture, randomly created during encaustic painting process. This is a macro photo of a fragment of a 2'x3' sheet of metal used to extinguish the burning wax. The process creates random shapes and textures in a multitude of colors, though blue predominates. Some photos may look like maps or galaxies, others are more abstract. 12.22.2015. Sony DSC-HX90V 4.1mm 1/60@f7.1 ISO100

Hab keine Zeit zum ernst bleiben... ich sehe was und wenn es mir gefällt, mache ich ein Foto. Was dann passiert, liegt im Auge des Betrachters... Tauben in Bäumen gibts genug... das reicht mir nicht

Das gibt es nur in Mainz! An einem Fußgängerüberweg zwischen Bahnhof und Innenstadt leuchtet der schlaue Det rot und grün, steht und geht. Denn hier finden Sie die erste Mainzelmännchen-Ampel Deutschlands! Mittlerweile wurden weitere Mainzelmännchen-Ampeln im Stadtgebiet installiert und sind zu richtigen Eyecatchern und Besuchermagneten geworden.
Die Idee, eine Mainzer Ampelanlage mit einem Mainzelmännchen-Konterfei anstelle der normalen Signalfiguren auszurüsten, kam bereits im August 2013 auf. Anlässlich ihres 50. Geburtstages verlieh die Landeshauptstadt Mainz Anton, Berti, Conni, Det, Edi und Fritzchen in einer humorig angelegten Feier die "Mainzelmännchen-Ehrenwürde".
Aus dem Einfall erwuchsen konkrete Pläne, den Mainzelmännchen ein "Denkmal" mit Außenwirkung zu setzen: Das Vorhaben der "Mainzelmännchen"-Ampelanlage war geboren. Dabei handelt es sich natürlich nicht um Standard-Ware sondern eine Sonderanfertigung. Oberbürgermeister Michael Ebling und ZDF-Intendant Dr. Thomas Bellut schalteten die erste ihrer Art am 23. November 2016 gemeinsam an.
Standort
Die Ampelanlage mit dem rot und grün leuchtenden, stehenden und gehenden Mainzelmännchen Det befindet sich am höchst frequentierten Fußgängerüberweg in der Innenstadt:
Große Bleiche / Höhe Neubrunnenplatz, 55116 Mainz
Weitere Mainzelmännchen-Ampeln
Weitere Ampeln mit den Mainzer Sympathieträgern sind inzwischen im Stadtteil Lerchenberg, in dem das ZDF beheimatet ist, zu finden. Auch der Fußgängerüberweg über die Rheinstraße (Höhe Fischtorplatz) mainzelt seit September 2017. Weitere Ampeln im Innenstadtbereich werden umgerüstet.
