It may not be as nice as the gates on the inter-web but I never made a gate before so give me some slack people. i thought it would take about 5 months to make it took 11 months. I don't think I'll do that again. Most everything I used was scrap metal or remnants.
Golden Gate in San Francisco.
I try to find some new perspectives to photograph the Golden Gate. How do you like this one??
During this last quarantine (2022) I walked along the streets, walls, signs, and doors and of course, I found something interesting!
The South Gates of the University of Cambridge's Department of Engineering, a simple pattern of polygons representing... actually I have no idea on that last bit.
This little gate guards nothing. It's an empty alcove with a few bits of pipe and not much else. There's no door and no obvious reason why there needs to be a gate over the alcove, no obvious reason why there needs to be an alcove at all!
I like it.

Dayan, Lijiang, China
The town has a history going back more than 800 years and was once a confluence for trade along the old tea horse road. The Lijiang old town is famous for its orderly system of waterways and bridges. The old town of Lijiang differs from other ancient Chinese cities in architecture, history and the culture of its traditional residents the Nakhi people, therefore people there are called 胖金哥 and 胖金妹 (male and female respectively).
Lijiang old town (including Dayan, Baisha and Shuhe) was registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List on December 4, 1997.[1] Since then, the local government has taken more responsibility for the development and protection of the old city. Lijiang's tourism also boomed, and travellers from around the world flooded in; although many locals fear that due to much of the development, the old town of Lijiang will lose its appeal.
Recently, the government has started to develop additional "old city" sections adjacent to the site of the original old city. This is to accommodate the large number of tourists who walk the cobblestone streets (cars are not allowed in the old city), typically as part of package tours. Evenings in the old city can be particularly rowdy, not least due to the many outdoor bars, where boisterous groups of tourists try to outsing other groups.
Lijiang is also home to the Jade Water Village, a Dongba cultural centre and Lugu Lake, a lake which is a tourist attraction.
When we bought this truck there was no tail gate. Found this one in a boneyard near Fredericksburg, TX....over in Stonewall. Looks ratty, but it's a rat rod for Pete's sake!
Changgyeonggung Palace, Seoul, South Korea
Located in the heart of Seoul, Changgyeonggung Palace was first built by the 4th ruler of the Joseon Dynasty, King Sejong (r.1418-1450), for his retiring father, King Taejong. It often served as residential quarters for queens and concubines. During the reign of King Seongjong (r.1469-1494), the palace was renovated and renamed to Changgyeonggung Palace. It later became a park with a zoo and a botanical garden during Japanese colonial rule. The palace was then relocated in 1983 and regained its old grace after years of restoration.

Visted the new Gates Foundation Campus to see their Bike to Work facilities. Cyclists like Lyle were easy to spot.
