In the deep of winter, sometimes it is difficult to shoot photos of nature against a series of extreme weather warnings. But nature can be invited indoors through our lenses and integrated with potted plants. This photo made use of Nikon D850's multiple exposure function and consists of 3 images, 2 outside and one indoors.
actually this is just a word play, since the plate is from the series Manufacture Rock from Villeroy und Boch.
Same plate differnt day , different light, light shaped by the railings of my balcony, one photo with an addidional reflector zebra gold and silver.

Bliss Tweed Mill is a former mill for the manufacture of tweed. It is located on the edge of Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom. It became a Grade II* listed building in 1980.[1]
The mill was built in 1872 for cloth manufacturer William Bliss, to make fine tweed cloth from locally produced wool. It was designed by the architect George Woodhouse of Bolton, who also designed mills in Lancashire, including Victoria Mill in Miles Platting; Woodhouse was also involved in the construction of Bolton Town Hall.
The main 5-storey spinning building is faced with local limestone and styled to resemble a country house, with square towers at each corner topped by stone urns. Unusually, a large chimney for the furnace to power the mill's steam machinery issues from a dome at the top of a circular tower built into one façade. The chimneystack is styled as a tall Tuscan column. Inside, the building is supported by cast iron columns that carry beams bearing brick vaults. An adjacent lower building was used for weaving the tweed cloth.
The millworkers went on strike for eight months from December 1913 to June 1914, over the right of workers to join a trades union, but the mill prospered in the First World War after receiving a large order for khaki cloth for the British Army.
The mill closed in 1980 and was converted into residential apartments in around 1988.
Bliss Tweed Mill
es un molino/factoria antiguo para la fabricación de textiles. Se encuentra en las afueras de Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, Reino Unido. Se convirtió en un edificio catalogado de Grado II en 1980.
El molino fue construido en 1872 para el fabricante de tejidos William Bliss, que fabricaba tejidos finos de tweed a partir de lana producida localmente. Fue diseñado por el arquitecto George Woodhouse de Bolton, quien también diseñó molinos/factorias en Lancashire, incluido Victoria Mill en Miles Platting; Woodhouse también participó en la construcción del ayuntamiento de Bolton.
El edificio principal de 5 pisos está revestido con piedra caliza local y diseñado para parecerse a una casa de campo, con torres cuadradas en cada esquina coronadas por urnas de piedra. Inusualmente, una gran chimenea para el horno que alimenta la maquinaria de vapor del molino sale de una cúpula en la parte superior de una torre circular construida en una fachada. La chimenea tiene el estilo de una columna toscana alta. En el interior, el edificio se sostiene sobre columnas de hierro fundido sostenido por vigas que sostienen bóvedas de ladrillo. Se utilizó un edificio inferior adyacente para tejer el tejido de tweed.
Los trabajadores de la fábrica se declararon en huelga durante ocho meses, desde diciembre de 1913 hasta junio de 1914, luchaban por su derecho a afiliarse a un sindicato, pero la fábrica prosperó durante la Primera Guerra Mundial después de recibir un gran pedido de tejido caqui para el ejército británico.
El molino cerró en 1980 y se convirtió en apartamentos residenciales alrededor de 1988.

It would appear that the American Manufacturing Bldg was lost for good today in the biggest alarm fire in the last 10years not including 9/11. Apparently the neighborhood were fighting the developers as they tried to declare it a Historic National Landmark. Coincidence or not, the owner of the property had previously in 2003 been investigated for arson on another piece of land in dumbo which went down in similiar fashion.
It is a great loss!
Swine flu from Mexico, news of manufacturing plant scandals that made it back to the U.S., SARS 1 pandemic from China, SARS 2 from China, tariffs, a trade war turning into a cold war, the worldwide Covid pandemic from Wuhan of 2020-2021 that crippled the economy, which nearly shut the company permanently down.
Things are shifting. There are persuasive arguments being discussed among CEOs about hidden long-term costs of manufacturing overseas that do not show up in quarterly and annual financial statements but that bite back hard. Has the equilibrium point and risk shifted so that their company's best financial interest is to bring manufacturing back? That means higher prices. Will those discussions become reality?

Les grues sont à l'œuvre pour remplacer les friches industrielles de la porte d'Aubervilliers par "une manufacture du luxe". Le groupe Chanel installera en 2020 une quinzaine de ses maisons de métiers d’art dans un luxueux bâtiment (architecte Rudy Ricciotti). Pour abriter les ateliers des joailliers, bottiers, plumassiers, chapeliers, etc. le futur bâtiment de 25 000 m 2 sera entouré d'une résille composée de filaments de béton censés rappeler les fibres du tissu.
The Auburn Speedster is an American car, manufactured by the Auburn Automobile Company of Auburn, Indiana and manufactured in Union City, Indiana. A total of 887 cars were manufactured between 1928 and 1936, across 3 series (1928-1930 with "eight" and "big eight" engines, 8 cylinder 1931-1933, 12 cylinder 1932-1934, and the dramatic, iconic 1935-36 Supercharged 8 ). The first two series were designed by stylist Alan Leamy. The Auburn 851 Speedster of 1935 was styled by designer Gordon Buehrig, who also was responsible for the Cord Model 810. Al Jenkins broke 70 American speed records in the 1935 car.
History
In 1924 Auburn output was down to six cars a day, Errett Lobban Cord—a successful automobile salesman—took over the distressed company, and brought in James Crawford to design and develop a new range of vehicles. Other companies had already produced cars with 'boat tail" styling (Peerless, Packard, Hudson) but Auburn wanted to have an image leader in the segment. The Speedster had a fixed windshield, but no side windows, no interior door release, an optional roof, a cockpit for only two in an aerodynamic body.
First Series, 1928-1930 Auburn Eight (Eight-In-Line / 8-88 / Speedster 115, 120 and 125)
The first Auburn eight model was introduced in 1925, as the "Auburn Eight-In-Line". In the following year, it received an ungraded 4.8-liter side-valve 68 bhp Lycoming engine and was renamed "8-88".
1929 Auburn 120 Boattail Speedster
That powertrain remained in use until 1930, when it developed 115 bhp, hence the "Speedster 115" model name. The car was of a straightforward and stout design. Suspension was by semi-elliptic springs all round,[1] and after experiments with hydraulic brakes, Auburn opted for mechanical brakes. The three-speed gearbox was in unit with the engine. The open two-seater body styled by Count Alexis de Sakhnoffsky featured a boat-tail and a vee windscreen.
The "Auburn Speedster 120" with the so-called "big eight" 268 cubic inch, 120 hp engine were built in 1928 and 1929. On a longer chassis and with a longer hood than the 8-88, 100 were built and today only maybe 8 are known to survive.
In 1930, the Auburn Speedster was upgraded and it was renamed "Speedster 125". The Speedster 125 was advertised as a "racing car with comfort of a closed car" with a 125 bhp version of the Lycoming eight giving it a top speed of over 100 mph. It came with models such as "cabin speedster" and others. Wikipedia
