*Bluenose II is a perfect replica of the Bluenose which was a Canadian schooner from Nova Scotia, a celebrated racing ship and a symbol of the province. The name "bluenose" originated as a nick-name for Nova Scotians. Bluenose was launched at Lunenburg, Nova Scotia on March 26, 1921, as both a working cod-fishing schooner and a racing ship.

Playing with my new camera Sony A7R II. Not moving away from Canon 60D but adding Sony to my gears list :) Amazing camera with so many features I've been looking for.

For my likes of old lenses, it's just an another world to explore using those Minolta glasses and playing with adapters to use all kinds of lenses.

 

Key features that I looked for:

1. In-body stabilization (hand-held 1/15th sec looks sharp!)

2. 42 MP - helps post-composing the frame!

3. High ISO & Dynamic Range.

Monochrome II by American sculptor and installation artist, Nancy Rubins, is composed of recycled aluminum canoes and small boats, branching off a central column, creating an illusion that the canoes are frozen in time and space.

Projekt "Blacktron II Special Forces" Part 2 "MBT Scorpion II"

 

Yes, it is a slightly modified Halo Scorpion M808 B1. I wanted to recreate this tank since long. All previous models of this tank that I have seen, are not accurate enough for me. So I've been thinking long, and have come to the conclusion that in relation to a Minifig to double the size.Then I worked on self supporting chain runs very long. Because I did not like the bricks to hold the axes in addition to the running rollers and drive wheels of the chain. That takes some accuracy of detail in my eyes. So I have now managed by various techniques an accurate replica for me.It would be no reproduction ala Stephan Niehoff, if I had not made a few small changes. The turret I designed a little flatter, which looks more like a battle tank. And the cannon I've designed something spacey. Ohhh, of course, the MBT received a Blacktron II painting.

Details: The turret can be rotated 360 degrees, the gun barrel can be raised by 45 degrees, the chain runs can be rotated 360 degrees, and the chains work.

The Blacktron engineers created this tank based on the model of a series of games. They play this game with great enthusiasm. But they had to expand the dimensions to carry enough ammunition and hightech with. Because this destruction machine has a 160 mm cannon, which is why the turret was flat, to compensate for the enormous blowback.The 160 mm projectiles are fired by inductive voltage. And can hit a target up to 40 KM. This makes the bullets a little smaller because no propellant is required. The energy for the weapon and the drive provides a fusion reactor. So that no fuel is needed and a nearly unlimited range guaranteed. The secondary weapon is a high speed plasma machine gun, no ammunition unlimited number of shots.A neuroimplant of the second generation allows that one crew member is sufficient to perform all the functions of the tank.

The combat weight is the only weak point, with 125 tons of these MBT it is not suitable for all terrain. Each MBT is supported by Blacktron II infantry units. (Often elite infantry of the CS series). And drones of the SkyEye series. OohRah

Die Hassan-II.-Moschee (arabisch مسجد الحسن الثاني Mesdschid al-Hasan ath-thānī, DMG masǧid al-ḥasan aṯ-ṯānī) in Casablanca ist eine der größten Moscheen der Welt.

 

Ihr Minarett ist mit 210 Metern Höhe das derzeit höchste Minarett und das höchste religiöse Bauwerk der Welt. Sie wurde anlässlich des 60. Geburtstags des damaligen marokkanischen Königs Hassan II. erbaut und 1993 fertiggestellt.

 

2500 Arbeiter und 10.000 Handwerker arbeiteten sechs Jahre lang an der Moschee. Am 30. August 1993 wurde der Bau eingeweiht. Bis zu 25.000 Personen finden in der Gebetshalle von 20.000 Quadratmetern Platz. Technische Besonderheiten sind ein sich automatisch öffnendes Dach, Fußbodenheizung in der Gebetshalle und ein grüner Laserstrahl, der nachts Richtung Mekka zeigt. Die Moschee darf auch von Nicht-Muslimen gegen Eintrittsgeld betreten werden.

A property of liquids such that their surfaces behave like a thin, elastic film. Surface tension is an effect of intermolecular attraction, in which molecules at or near the surface undergo a net attraction to the rest of the fluid, while molecules not near the surface are attracted to other molecules equally in all directions and undergo no net attraction. Because of surface tension, the surface of a liquid can support light objects (such as water beetles on the surface of a pond). Surface tension is responsible for the spherical shape of drops of liquid; spheres minimize the surface area of the drop and thus minimize surface tension.
