Not all of them are what _I_ would call interesting... but hey... each to their own I suppose...
Thanks for the idea, Norby (http://flickr.com/photos/norby/81931420/)

I find this quite interesting.
Recently, a visiting acquaintance, a painter held in such regard as to be hung in national galleries, made complimentary remarks about my growing of pink Dianthus. Her admiration reflected not so much my horticultural finesse but how the pink represented certain sentiments in Renaissance painting. Oh, I said, as the cracked water jar at the well symbolised loss of innocence? This, she said, was news to her but observed that the artistic temperament often put such things in the margin with little or no penetration into the physical world. She walks a fine line. We are alike while apart.
This jar of fläderkapris, elderberries preserved in the Swedish style to be like capers contribute somewhere between little and nothing nutritionally. Added in a small amount, a garnish atop a dish they add interest; a flavour contrast.
Across cultures and continents it is the same. Whether it is pap en sous at a braai, bombay "duck", a sambal, prawn "floss", capers themselves, that chopped parsley, truffle, dukkah, pangrattato, spezzi, chimichurri, ketjap, mustard, nước chấm, horseradish, wasabi, nam phrik, all the "rice pullers" under the Sun, all across the planet, whoever we are we put different things on our food to lift and excite our interest. In all of these things we are apart and yet alike; different and the same.
I find this quite interesting.
We have had storms the last few nights and have been getting some interesting cloud formations. This one goes up in a straight line and the line seems to coninue on the opposite horizon in an arc (see pic in comments) !DSC_8993
He was walking outside the movie theater at Rivertown Crossing. It was also a test for my cameraphone to upload by MMS, and I'd say it works swimmingly.
I've never seen this version before, any info is welcome!
please check my stream for the other pics of the loot!
Swatch for a Ravelry forum post. Rather interesting stitch, so I am glad I crocheted a swatch. I think I would change a couple of details if making a garment, but just a couple little things.

Perhaps the most achitecturally interesting government building in downtown Louisville, the City Hall was constructed from 1870-73 (it says 1871 along the front.) It was built with Indiana Limestone at a cost of $464,778. while the interior has been completely overhauled a few times, the exterior remains unchanged except for basic renovation.
The architectural style is a blend of Italianate and Second Empire style. The most prominent feature is the clock tower. The original tower burned after only a couple of years but this one was rebuilt in 1876. the tower is 195 feet tall and has a clock face on all four sides, plus a mansard roof. Inside the tower used to be a three ton bell that rang until 1964 when the clock broke. (it was repaired but soon broke again).
Today, it's primary function is housing the metro council offices and chambers. It is on the National Register of Historic Places.
The jagged rocks of these falls caught my attention. The water flowed over them in interesting ways. I was eager to get this photo before looking upstream for more and more falls.

An interesting connection point I found whilst experimenting with my Noble Team. It seems the lump on the side of both the Halo Sniper Rifle and the Combat LMG (Brickarms) fits into the hole in the back of the Spartan Armour (Brickforge). This is probably just a coincidence, but both weapons fit strangely well........
The ladies wanted to visit the Pokeman Center - it sounded interesting. To me Pokeman is like a Kardashian - I wouldn't know one if it bit me but I went along. The Pokeman Center was hard to find but we eventually found it. It wasn't a big building (like Center implied); it was actually a store inside a mall (picture a small Disney store). At least it was fun walking around and pretending I was a Pokeman authority even if I'm still clueless!
After that we went in search of a Cosplay store and never found it but we did find a huge adult supply store. The stuff in there was totally bizarre!

Arriving In Lyon late in the day and it was raining. Our hotel was about one hour from Lyon so we didn't stop there and went straight to our hotel. We arrived in the dark and left the next morning in the dark to go back to Lyon. Most of the shots of Lyon are taken from the moving Coach.
Day 10 of our Cosmos tour, October 9, 2012 Lyon France.
Lyon, traditionally spelt Lyons in English, is a city in east-central France in the Rhône-Alpes region, situated between Paris and Marseille. Etymologically it relates to the Celtic God Lugoves, Lugh as does Laon and Leiden. Lyon is located approximately 470 km (292 mi) from Paris, 320 km (199 mi) from Marseille, 420 km (261 mi) from Strasbourg, 160 km (99 mi) from Geneva, 280 km (174 mi) from Turin. The residents of the city are called Lyonnais.
The population of Lyon is 484,344 (2010).Together with its suburbs and satellite towns, Lyon forms the largest conurbation in France outside Paris, with a population estimated to be 1,551,228 (2010); its overall metropolitan area was estimated to have a population of 2,118,132. Its urban region represents half of the Rhône-Alpes region population with 2.9 million inhabitants.[5] Lyon is the capital of this region, as well as the capital of the smaller Rhône département.
The city is known for its historical and architectural landmarks and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Lyon was historically known as an important area for the production and weaving of silk and in modern times has developed a reputation as the capital of gastronomy in France. It has a significant role in the history of cinema due to Auguste and Louis Lumière, who invented the cinematographe in Lyon. The city is also known for its famous light festival 'Fête des Lumières' which occurs every 8 December and lasts for four days, earning Lyon the title of Capital of Lights. Legend says that the Virgin Mary saved the city from the plague and, to thank her, a statue was built. On the day it was erected, the whole city was lit by candles that its citizens had put at their windows. The local professional football team, Olympique Lyonnais, has increased Lyon's profile internationally through participation in European football championships.
Economically, Lyon is a major centre for banking as well as for chemical, pharmaceutical, and biotech industries. The city contains a significant software industry with a particular focus on video games, and in recent years has fostered a growing local start-up sector. Lyon also hosts the international headquarters of Interpol, Euronews and International Agency for Research on Cancer. By some measures, Lyon is ranked 2nd in France as an economic centre and convention centre. Lyon was ranked 8th globally and 2nd in France for innovation in 2011 It ranked 2nd in France and 38th globally in Mercer's 2010 liveability rankings.

Centro de Exposiciones y Congresos Lienzo Norte
Avenida de Madrid, 102 Ávila
2005 (concurso de ideas) -2010
Francisco J. Mangado Arquitecto
El edificio define sus características fundamentales en relación con el recinto amurallado de la ciudad de Ávila y crea un gran espacio público de acceso orientado al mismo. Su organización permite la adaptación a los distintos requerimientos funcionales derivados de un amplio programa de actividades. Sus interiores se organizan según una secuencia donde los materiales y el uso de la luz ayudan a significar el valor del conjunto.
El proyecto propone una gran explanada, un lugar de encuentro al borde de las murallas “plaza del nuevo mercado lúdico”, con una superficie aproximada de 10.000 m2 orientada al sur, que permite organizar eventos culturales y expositivos al aire libre. La edificación ocupa básicamente el lateral norte de ese espacio público. En función de la topografía, el proyecto hace convivir dos geometrías diferentes que se adaptan al terreno desarrollando un volumen tallado y trabajado como si de una pieza que emerge del subsuelo granítico del entorno se tratara. La parte más ortogonal y alargada contiene los auditorios y salas principales. La parte más irregular y adaptada al suelo, alberga el área de exposiciones. Sus fachadas de granito rugoso se funden con el entorno asegurando mediante superficies vidriadas la relación visual entre el interior del edificio y los lienzos de las murallas que constituyen su horizonte.
La edificación se desarrolla de manera que a los auditorios principales se llega desde la plaza y por la parte más alta de su graderío, permitiendo una comprensión inmediata del espacio interior. El área de exposiciones tiene un acceso independiente desde las “quebradas” en las que se rompe la plataforma en el límite este.
Desde un punto de vista formal y constructivo, la actuación se inspira en la fuerza evocadora del paisaje, en la masa granítica que todo lo invade. Los volúmenes se piensan para ser vistos desde la distancia. El edificio se percibe desde lo alto de las murallas como una manipulación cincelada de la gran roca del terreno. Se trata de una yuxtaposición de volúmenes de granito. Resumida en una pieza, más ortogonal, que se esculpe de una manera precisa y otra algo más abrupta e irregular que aloja el volumen de las exposiciones. Son esos pliegues los que generan grietas para el paso de la luz natural y el acceso independiente a esta zona.
Los distintos auditorios, salas y áreas de exposición, se suceden en su interior organizados según recorridos donde la riqueza espacial constituye un objetivo fundamental. Destaca la gran Sala Sinfónica con una superficie de 1600 m2 y capacidad para 1390 espectadores, divisible en dos. Además se distribuyen sobre este bloque principal la denominada Sala Dorsal, la Sala de Cámara, 3 salas de conferencias, la Sala de Prensa y 3 salas multifuncionales, con sus correspondientes zonas de servicio, camerinos y almacenaje. Los vestíbulos han sido diseñados para facilitar el acceso a las salas y, en caso necesario, habilitarse para exposiciones o recepciones.
El complejo dispone además, con carácter independiente, de un volumen compuesto una sala de Exposiciones y un conjunto de 6 Salas para Congresos.
En lugar prominente del edificio principal, con vistas directas a la muralla, se sitúan las áreas de cafetería y restaurante, que presentan una gran fachada de vidrio, reforzando el tratamiento especular del recinto amurallado.

Road Trip - Victoria, South Australia and Broken Hill – March 2023.
As I was taking this shot, an old Dutch guy came up to me and told me that I must be "making an interesting picture".
It's amazing what can happen to the back alley of a convenience store.
