The unique architectural design has been said to have an appearance similar to either a durian (a tropical fruit) or the eyes of a fly. Hence, the building is colloquially known to locals as "the durians"

View looking north west towards Tuatapere. Please note different date this pic was taken, plus with my new Nikon D5500 & Sigma 18-35mm f/1.4 DG HSM (art) lens. They worked their mojo I reckon and no editing software used either!

A full version of the falls is here. This new shot is not a crop, but a zoomed composition. :)
Just doing a little housekeeping....
Nikonians.org member Yvonne Berger (Yvonne_BergerBros) has a timely spring cleanup reminder for your hard drive in the Guides, How-to, Tips and Tricks section of the Nikonians Resources library.
Yvonne is the senior instructor at Berger Brothers School of Photography. Her article reminds us to take some time for a careful look at all those images you have been collecting. She tells us the inspiration for this reminder came from her instructor experience: "I have classes where people have accumulated libraries of 30,000+ photos and they aren't shooting professionally and they have only been at it for a few years. Something’s gotta give-usually it's the hard drive."

Looking south at McCracken Library and the bell tower of St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. The church is located in the Euclid Golf Allotment -- a historic district roughly bounded by Cedar Road, Coventry Road, West St. James Parkway, and Ardleigh Drive in 1913. Every structure on the development was a single-family residential home, except for two. One was a medical office located near the allotment's entrance on Fairmount Blvd., and the other was St. Paul's.
St. Paul's was founded as St. Paul's Church of the City of Cleveland in 1846. In 1876, the congregation moved into a new building at E. 40th and Euclid Avenue. The congregation grew in size and wealth. As rich people abandoned Euclid Avenue for suburbs further east, St. Paul's moved with them.
In 1928, St. Martin's Episcopal Church (established in 1916) merged with St. Paul's, and the congregation changed its name to St. Paul's Episcopal Church of Cleveland Heights. The church purchased several lots at the intersection of Coventry Road and Fairmount Boulevard and hired architect J. Byers Hayes of the noted Cleveland architectural firm of Walker and Weeks to design the structure. Construction began on the parish hall in 1927, and services were first held there in April 1928. The bell tower was finished in 1929, but the Great Depression halted further construction for the next decade. Work began on the sanctuary in 1941, but World War II forced a halt for several years. After the war, the congregation was too middle-class to afford the grandiose sanctuary (narthex, nave, St. Martin's chapel, bema, sacristy, and apse) it had planned. Hayes revised his plans in 1947 to reduce costs, and construction began again in 1949. The sanctuary was finished in 1951. A small nursery school wing was added to the northwest end of the church hall in 1956.
In 1991, St. Paul's expanded for the first time in four decades when it built a "South Wing" -- a wing of classrooms extending south from the former main entrance of the church hall. The old narthex was closed and the steps turned into a terrace, while a new narthex was added at the south end of the new wing. A gallery connected the new narthex to the south end of the nave, creating a "cloister".
From 2010 to 2013, the church built an ADA-compliant entrance in the tower on the north side of the hall, and renovated the hall, nave, sacristy, and dining room and kitchen in the hall basement.

Apparently they can be quite a pest....but those stripes are sure cute. ;) This one was paused at the door to its burrow....ready to zoom away.
"The thirteen-lined ground squirrel is a slender rat-sized rodent weighing about 8 ounces with a length of about 10 inches including a tail of 3 inches.. As its name implies, 13 stripes run the length of this ground squirrel’s body. Five of the light-colored lines break up into a series of spots as they progress down the back and over the rump. Some of the common or colloquial names for this species include “thirteen-liners,” “stripers,” “striped ground squirrels,” “striped gophers,” and “gophers.”
