Belgium. Planckendael Animal Park
Planckendael is a zoo, located on the grounds of Planckendael castle in the village district of Muizen, in Mechelen, Belgium. In 1956 the Royal Zoological Society of Antwerp (KMDA) bought the Planckendael estate in order to acquire a larger space for animals than what they owned: the city zoo in Antwerp. Planckendael hosts exotic animals like rhinos, bison and various antelope species, but also several local species.

McDonald's #7384 (closed) [3,982 square feet]
908 General Booth Boulevard, Virginia Beach, VA
Built and opened in 1985, closed January 31st, 2018
Aside from the 21st Street location, each of these has been remodeled sometime within the past few years. VA Beach has a few other unmodified McD's that I'll have to check out soon.
I was a bit on the edge about this outfit but now that it is here, I love it. It has so many cute details like a functioning belt, super cute panties and suspenders and an embroidered hankerchief. I might have to combine it with an edgier Syb though to counterbalance the classic look!

Smokey has been very reluctant to go outside the cat flap. I could see he was interested in going outside. When the other cats were out, he would watch them longingly through the window. Sometimes he would roam around the house and meow loudly at all the windows.
I've tried several times to encourage him to go out by holding both flaps open for him. Indeed he did go just outside the flap the one day, but he only stayed out for about 10 minutes before getting scared and coming back inside.
Last night I tried something new. Since Smokey has been out in my yard before (often with a harness) , I took him out the front door and carried him down to the main part of the enclosure. I took him inside and stayed with him, and the other excited cats. At first he was afraid, and he tried to open the entrance I brought him in through. After a few minutes though he relaxed and started looking around. I then left the enclosure and stayed outside it with the cats. They followed me around, including Smokey so I just led him through the tunnel back up to the house. Once he discovered there was a route back to the house, he really relaxed and he started exploring his way back out through the tunnel. I retreated back to the house and kept an eye on things. For the next hour he wandered around, exploring and occasionally coming back through the tunnel to make sure he could still get to the house. When my downstairs neighbour came home, he got scared and he ran right back home and in through the flap, just the way he should.
Today he is using the flap like a pro and he has gone in and out several times and he's having a great time!

This is currently Petra's outdoor experience. He is sitting like this and he spends hours sitting like this. After his first bad experience out in the enclosure I guess it will take time for him to be brave enough to completely come out again. Actually, the fact that he stayed out long enough for me to take several photographs of him is a step of progress. A few days ago he would withdraw at the first sight of me.
Another new step with this enclosure is with the Ghost Cat. In the entire year and a half I've had her she's never really shown any interest in going outside. However, she has been showing some interest in the cat flap while the other cats were using it. It was her turn to sleep with me last night, so after I went to bed, I opened up the door so she could go out if she wanted. She immediately went out. She seemed to know how the flaps work. After about 10 minutes I called her in and she came in but went right back out. I watched her from the window for about an hour. She seemed to be having a fine time out there in the moonlight by herself. She ran, she climbed the shelves, she sniffed everything. Once, she got scared and she ran back inside the house on her own. Soon after she went back out again though. After awhile I went to sleep and she seemed to have a fine night outside.
I'm thinking I will let her out when the weather is nice at night. She needs the exercise as she is quite a heavy girl and she loved it! Unfortunately, the weather lately is awful. We have been having heavy rains almost daily. Today the rain started about 3 hours ago and it has been raining heavily all that time. My cats have all come in on their own.

Image from a vintage asbestos abatement industry publication showing workers posing inside an apparent asbestos abatement work area while demonstrating cleaning activities. Abatement workers are depicted with disposable coveralls, supplied-air full-face respirators, and a portable air monitoring device (worker in background).
This advertising photo attempts to portray some basic aspects of asbestos abatement, but might have missed a few details for realism in this obvious staged set-up, such as the apparent absence of negative air pressurization acting on the polyethylene-sheet wall and floor barriers. Along this line, the placement of the negative air machine (NAM) itself appears to show its intake opening directly against the enclosure wall, hindering its ability to draw airflow (doubtful if it was actually activated); NAM intake should be directed toward the main portion of the work area. Additionally, there doesn't even seem to be an electrical cord leading to the NAM.
Further, there seems to be a distinct absence of a wetting-agent and associated applicator (no water, hose, or reservoir container); everything appears to be "dry". One of the main factors in proper asbestos abatement dust control technique is assuring materials are "adequately wet", which can greatly reduce the potential for dust particles to become airborne, typically achieved by wetting materials and work area surfaces before, during and after ACM removal. Even the worker wiping the enclosure wall should be using a wet towel or damp rag, but where is the bucket of cleaning solution? Plus, such wiping activity is usually reserved for the "final cleaning" stage, well after bulk ACM debris has been removed and containerized.
In addition to this, the assumed "asbestos" debris on the floor should've been "promptly" containerized as it was removed, not allowed to accumulate where it could be further disturbed by trampling it, haphazardly dragging hoses and equipment over it, etc., likely causing asbestos fibers to become airborne and further contaminate surfaces. Loose bulk debris also compounds cleaning efforts by unnecessarily spending more time and resources to decontaminate exposed equipment and supplies from excessive debris build-up. Further, the workers themselves in this image appear to have managed keeping their coveralls and gloves perfectly spotless, an amazing feat inside an "active" asbestos abatement work area during bulk removal.
Not to mention, the fact that the personal air monitoring device is attached to the worker performing the least riskiest job function -in this example - relative to airborne asbestos fiber exposure - wiping walls; whereas the other workers are pictured vacuuming and shoveling apparent bulk friable insulation material. Air monitoring results would probably not be fully representative of job tasks with the potential highest exposure risk.
A couple of other points: larger areas of accumulated bulk debris such as this are often cleaned using shovels and not necessarily utilizing vacuums, since the excessive bulk material reduces the service-life of the vucuum's costly HEPA-filter much quicker, tends to clog more frequently, and would also fill the vacuum canister or bag quite often, requiring frequent emptying or bag replacement. HEPA-vacuuming is typically employed for residual materials on surfaces, following substantial removal and cleanup of bulk debris.
Although perhaps a smidgeon of credit is due, since there doesn't appear to be evidence of a broom or brush inside the work area (at least not on camera). Dry-sweeping asbestos material is strictly prohibited. But, some asbestos abatement workers might have another opinion about that.
Also, the kneeling worker holding open the black waste bag does not appear to have an adequate fit "inside" his full-face respirator. The internal seal around his nose and mouth looks breached, consequently not providing the full level of protection these types of respirators are designed for.
Ah, but who's looking anyway?
Interesting enclosure brightly painted, what it is for I haven't got a clue. Seems too thin to protect something inside.

The finished enclosure. It's hardly ideal, but it gets the cats out of the house for part of the day so inside the house is much easier to manage. I've already removed one of the 7 litter trays, and there is not so much cleaning as before. I have to join to the house somehow, that way I can really get some peace again. I won't have to transport them in and out except when I leave the house. I will still have to keep them inside when I'm not home which is a sad reality. But at least one project is done. I keep changing my mind about what to do next...as everything is a good idea and needs to be done asap.
That house you can see in the background has been illegally built on my back fence line...and that window up high is the window that the neighbour watches me all the time from. She's the lady who says I do my gardening just to make the side neighbours dogs bark and she along with the dog owners poisoned my cats in MY yard because when they walk in MY yard, the neighbours dogs bark. Thus the enclosure...poor things, it's only temporary I hope. I hope I can cat proof the whole yard eventually and the enclosure will be opened up and there will be lots of things to climb on and sleep in....and shelter too from the weather...that's my vision.
The curtains are temporary, to give some shade at certain times of the day as it gets full sun. So it was finished last Saturday, the 1st of February, 2014.
The jumper comes back every day to eat the fruit flies and sleep in the branches. Jumping spiders are quite smart.
Permanent installation at Bozeman's Story Mill Park; in spite of its apparent simplicity, it's in fact very interactive. Among other things, its appearance changes radically with the direction and intensity of the light.

The Enclosure is part of the Gallatin Crossing Art & Sculpture Park, the mission of which is:
To place public art that enhances the cultural experience for Bozeman area residents and visitors to the Gallatin Valley.
The "Park" consists of major art installations scattered throughout Bozeman.
The lifting cloud and brief sunny interval highlighted this patch of greenery in the middle of the brown slopes of the Howgill Fells. A walled enclosure with a large barn it was obviously fertilised to provide improved grazing for the sheep or cattle. Quite how it fitted in with the farm cycle I wouldn't know but there are a couple of similar green walled enclosures around the corner in the Rawthey Valley on the slopes of Wild Boar Fell.
This is another part of the ongoing Viking Village project, a place to keep animals safe. Lot of greenery and fences.
Al mattino del primo maggio : non c'era il sole ma nuvoloso e pioveva un pò, ho visto subito molti animali :
per prime le tre gatte dell'agriturismo e mi sono venute incontro, si sono lasciate accarezzare molto, le ho fotografate ... ma non posto la loro foto pur se ho formato un collage.
Poi hanno fatto uscire le pecore un bel gregge e andate nel loro grande prato in un recinto, anche queste foto alle pecore non posto adesso.
Potevo andare in giro per fotografare ancora altri animali, un pò più lontano nei loro recinti, ma mi sono fermata a questa famigliola di cavalli: mamma e piccoli, ho scelto due foto di questi ... la seguente a questa è stato un regalo dei piccoli !
Questo recinto era molto vicino all'agriturismo, quindi comodo per scattare foto, purtroppo con la piogerellina che cadeva non era facile andare tanto in giro.
E per postare, devo fare scelte per finire la serie, ecco che per gli animali questa è stata la scelta !

In the morning of the first of May: there was not the sun but cloudy and it was raining a little, I immediately saw many animals:
first the three cats of the farm and they came to meet me, they let themselves cuddle a lot, I photographed them ... but I will not upload their picture in this series, even if I formed a collage.
Then they brought the sheep out in a beautiful flock and went into their large lawn in an enclosure, even these photos of the sheep I will not upload now.
I could go around to photograph still more animals, a little farther in their enclosures, but I stopped at this little family of horses: mother and children, I chose two photos of these ... the following to this was a gift from little ones !
This fence was very close to the farm, so convenient to take pictures, unfortunately with the rain that fell was not easy to go around so much.
And as for uploading now, I have to make choices to finish the series, so for the animals this was the choice!
As if the earth is closing in on top of you and the last light is about to be extinguished.
An unusual little cleft in the rock only accessible from inside of the tiny chapel of St Govan nestled tight into the cliffs of Pembrokeshire. Clearly a little room, but what was it used for?

While driving my way to the east side of Buraiqah ( Little Aden ) I found this nice spot, a tree standing out alone, which lead me to think that it'll produce a nice composition .. well, it was indeed a great shot.
