Snow Leopard ... female named Renjy ...
Uncia uncia
The snow leopard’s five-inch thick coat affords great protection from the cold. The coat also comes in handy as camouflage, helping the leopard blend in with the rocky terrain to hide from potential prey. Sadly, the beautiful coat also hinders the leopard’s survival, as poaching for the fur is one of its major threats.

Anish Kapoor in Pitzhanger Manor, optical tricks with mirrors and metal
Anish Kapoor
(March to August 2019)
Within the newly restored gallery, with its three circular skylights, Kapoor’s sculptures challenge our traditional notion of form and space by disorientating the viewer and transforming their surroundings.
These sculptures echo Soane’s complex use of mirrors and light and will enable visitors to Pitzhanger to see Soane’s architecture from a fresh perspective.
[Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery]
Pitzhanger Manor was bought by Sir John Soane (1753-1837) in 1800. He demolished most of George Dance's building but retained the southern extension, replacing the main block with one of his own design. In the same year Soane employed John Haverfield to produce new designs for the grounds which were delivered by September 1800 (guidebook). The new mansion was used to display Soane's art collection and for entertaining, his Lincoln's Inn house being retained as the family residence. By 1809 Soane was only occasionally at Pitzhanger and in June of that year he instructed James Christie to sell the house and the estate. Once again the property passed through a series of owners until, in 1843, it was sold to the politician Spencer Walpole and became the home of his four unmarried sisters-in-law, the daughters of the Rt Hon Spencer Perceval. Prior to the death aged ninety-five of the last-surviving Perceval sister, Frederika, in May 1900, her nephew, Sir Spencer Walpole, had begun negotiations with Ealing District Council for the sale of the house and the estate. The sale negotiations were completed early in January 1900 and, following Miss Perceval's death, alterations were carried out. The then Borough Surveyor, Charles Jones, was responsible for the designs for the alterations to the house and grounds and in April 1902 the building was opened as a public library. At the time of the sale, the property was variously referred to as Manor House Park (Middlesex County Times, 19 May 1900) and Perceval Park (Middlesex County Times, 28 July 1900). The name Walpole Park was adopted after communications between the last owner and Ealing Borough Council towards the end of 1900.
Further major alterations to the library building were completed by 1940 and then, in 1984, the Central Library was moved to new premises in Ealing. The following year a continuing programme of restoration and repair to both the mansion and the grounds began. The restored manor house was reopened as a museum and centre for cultural events in the late 1990s. The grounds continue (2000) in the ownership of the London Borough of Ealing.

I like this sculpture by Henry Moore but I have noticed that visitors do not pay it much attention.
Many years ago Henry Moore provided on loan a sculpture which became known as 'The King And Queen' and it was located on the Library forecourt but as he was not happy about the location he decided that it should be returned. However the college managed to obtain an other sculpture which has been located at the Library Square its current location. Sphere In Sphere by Pomodoro which is now permanently installed on the forecourt which appears to have been made for it.
I think these have the potential to be chess pieces. It's quite an ambitious project, so it might just be a thought passing through my brain, but who knows?!
The line forms outside the Apple Store for the release of Mac OS X - Leopard. The line grew as it got closer to 6pm - they had 500 shirts to give away, but they still had some left by the time I left after I made my purchase. There was still a good line outside for people waiting to get in. You can see the iPod Nano displays in the window with some big popcorn pieces hanging near them.

With each passing week Key West Contemporary becomes a little more pleasing to my eye. Every year I go to the Orchid Show at the NYBG as often as possible. Each year I start out with fond memories of the previous year's showing and every year by the final day I claim that this year's show is the best ever.

Forming part of a COP26 Global Day of Action, Extinction Rebellion - who have worked with a puppet production company to create a giant, smoldering koala (name'd Blinky), representing the terror our animals are facing in the climate emergency - led a march through St Kilda's Catani Gardens. It was joined by the Red Rebel Brigade, as well as drummers and musicians.

What else is there to say? It's a railing with droplets of melted snow, capped by a snow and ice layer, with fall foliage as the bokeh in the background.
