Excerpt from bluelapisroad.wordpress.com/2022/02/18/architectural-gem-...:
The historical Lo Pan Temple (魯班先師廟) on Ching Lin Terrace (青蓮臺) has proven to be a much more resilient establishment. Listed as a Grade 1 historical building, Lo Pan Temple was erected in 1884 by the Contractor Guild, way before Li Po Lung laid hands on the area. The temple construction was supported by 1172 donors, mostly contractors and builders from all over Guangdong (Canton) and Hong Kong. The temple is the city’s only religious establishment solely dedicated to Lo Pan, the patron saint for all Chinese contractors and builders. Lo Pan (魯班) or Lu Ban in Mandarin, was a renowned structural engineer, inventor, carpenter, builder and craftsman in the Spring and Autumn Period in China. During his lifetime, (507 – 444 BC), Lo Pan was responsible for inventing a variety of tools from the saw and prototype of a kite, to military tools and seige ladder used in warfare. Lo Pan was considered to be the master of all craftsmen in the Chinese culture, and has become a deity and patron saint for all contractors.
Maintained by a very old temple keeper “Uncle Fun” (芬叔) in his late 90s, Lo Pan Temple (魯班先師廟) is a remnant from a distinct past, a time when traditional values in the three general construction trades (三行), namely carpentry, cement work, and paint work, were strong. In the old days, paying respect to Lo Pan was a common routine to start the day for all contractors. They would celebrate Lo Pan’s birthday, on the 23rd of June in the Lunar Calendar, with heart beating drums and dragon dances, and share a big pot of “Lo Pan meal” (魯班飯). It was the contractors’ respect to the Lo Pan heritage that has sustained the temple to the present day. Even “Uncle Fun” is serving his temple keeping responsibility out of appreciation for his former patron saint, after a 60-year career in the paint trade until retirement at 80. Working together with architectural conservationist and master carpenter Wong Hung Keung (王鴻強), Uncle “Fun” was also involved in the temple’s major renovation in 2007, repairing structural damages and restoring some of the magnificent wall paintings, stone carvings, and clay sculptures that make Lo Pan Temple one of the most precious architectural gems in Hong Kong.

Glad that I'm finally able to use Geary (my camera) on a weekly basis now! Not to mention my prof is pretty open on how we edit our photos and or plan out concepts. I'm kind of content with the outcome of this. There were lots of complications, but in the end I was able to figure out ways to make those mistakes work in a positive way.
So our project for photography is called "Nerd VS Rockstar". I just assume that everyone is going to be doing the typical "nerd", so I decided to do something different. Instead of going for the geeky math nerd, I went for the stylish book nerd who just really gets immersed in different stories! I think this is a much more refreshing way to look at the whole "nerd" concept that's overdone.
Tomorrow's light painting in class, which is something that never gets old and is always exciting and fun! My iphone's "flashlight" app is ready! : )
Hope everyone's having a lovely start to their week! I'll be uploading more work as they pile up haha!

Si lo hubiera sabido... Si lo hubiera pensado... Si solo por un momento lo hubiera imaginado, quizás, solo quizás, habría estado preparado. Pero no, no, no, nunca se está preparado para el final, y yo te añoro tanto.

Buenos Aires rural
Localidad : Carlos Keen , Distrito de Luján. So, so , more or less 80 km distant from Buenos Aires city centre, Capitol of Argentina.
A small rural town , between urban places. The area completely rural is more distant.
Carlos Keen, un pueblo rural distante a unos 80 km del Km Cero, en pleno centro de Buenos Aires, Capital de Argentina.
El kilómetro CERO se encuentra frente al edificio del Congreso Nacional ( ver fotos del mismo y alrededores en ÁLBUM Palacio Barolo.
El corderito tenía apenas unos días de nacido, por el cordón umbilical que se ve . Nos prometió la mujer de la foto que NO IBA a alimento. Lo iban a criar hasta el fin de sus días.
En Argentina hay un viejo refrán o dicho que dice " TODO BICHO QUE CAMINA VA A PARAR AL ASADOR" . Se usa hoy en día , como broma o comentario chistoso y no tanto literalmente hablando ( decir algo tal cual es ) como en su origen. Incluso a veces ni siquiera hace referencia a un animal.
Es difícil de explicar en pocas palabras........hay que ser argentino.
Saludos para esta próxima NAVIDAD , sean creyentes o no les deseo PAZ Y SALUD así como unmFeliz año 2026 🎅👼
