....on Stanton Moor.
Thought to have been built over 4,000 years ago during the Bronze Age, and used for religious purposes. Legend has it that one Sunday 9 ladies came up to the moor to dance and for this act of sacrilege they were all turned to stone.
The moor contains at least 70 barrows (burial mounds) as well as stone circles, ancient enclosures and standing stones and is of such interest to archaeologists that the whole area is now protected.
Most people that arrive here sit on one of the stones for a well earned rest - it's a long uphill walk to this point. I had to wait a while to get this shot of the vacated stones.
Lately Dezio and i have been trying to get a little more street stuff done. This vegetable market was fun. Little challenging as there are a couple late night noodle spots very close by, providing us with all kinds of on lookers.
Big thanks to Dezio for hooking up the pics.

Nine Arch Bridge, Ella, Sri Lanka.
This viaduct was built at Gotuwala between the two railway stations – Ella and Demodara during the British Colonial period is the largest in Sri Lanka. Located almost 3100 feet above the sea level, this 99.6ft high bridge is called “Ahas namaye palama” (Nine skies bridge) in Sinhala. When one stands underneath it and looks up there is a beautiful sight of ‘nine skies’ through the nine arches, hence the Sinhala name. This bridge is also called ‘The Bridge in the sky’ due to the sheer height.
This massive bridge is built entirely of solid rocks, bricks and cement without using a single piece of steel. The bridge was finally commissioned in 1921.

Pierre-Auguste Renoir French, 1841-1919
Bridge at Chatou c. 1875
Oil on canvas
Renoir placed his easel on lush pastoral land in Chatou, a village about nine miles west of Paris, yet chose to paint the town’s nondescript buildings rather than the surrounding landscape. The focus of the canvas is the brilliant blue of the river and the contrasting yellow of the sunlit bridge, its reflection blurred by the choppy surface of the suburban waterway.

Moleskine nine added to the set. It felt nice to revisit the pages of my past joys, tears, love and heartaches. Journal nine half way done.
Ok, I finally got around to putting together my remaining time lapse seqences.
These sequences were shot on August 5th, 6th and 3rd respectively.
The last one was my first attempt at capturing a sunset time lapse, I should have let it go on for longer. While I improved my technique for the other two, I think the sky was more spectacular on that first attempt. The video compression hasn't done this upload any favours but I think its viewable...
All 3 sequences were shot on a Nikon D700 and Nikkor 14-24mm f/2.8G at 14mm.

Ricardo Brey (born 1955) is a child of the Cuban Revolution. He is one of the pioneer artists of Cuban New Art which began in 1891. Disillusioned by the ideals of the Cuban Revolution as corrupted by the regime of Fidel Castro, Brey participated in this key event along with many notable Cuban artists, writers and art critics.
More than twenty years after leaving Cuba, Brey was given the first retrospective of his work at the Museo Nacional Bellas Artes in Havana (2014). Belgium, Brey’s adopted country, presented the first European retrospective of his work the Museum of Contemporary Art, Antwerp.

This is a painting of nine birds that can be found in the Ottawa-Gatineau area. Actually it's not one painting but nine small paintings - a sort of triple triptych. My plan was to ensure that each canvas could exist as an independent painting of a goldfinch, northern flicker, robin, bluejay, nuthatch, redwing blackbird, cardinal, downy woodpecker, and chickadee. I think I succeded. This project began when I received a package of small canvases from one of my daughters for Christmas a couple of years ago. 'What should I do with them?' I asked myself. I remembered a digital image that I made of nine birds and felt that it might be great fun to reproduce it as an oil painting. The project took some thought and a little organization. I began by carefully screwing each blank canvas to a large piece of varnished plywood so that the individual canvases looked like one large canvas. While I wanted my painting to resemble my digital image, I made a few alterations - like creating a maple tree instead of an oak tree. I also took my time painting the illustration, occasionally putting it aside to work on other paintings and sketches. These pauses allowed me to return to the painting with fresh eyes. Altogether it took me about 44 hours to complete this oil painting - which is twice as long as it took me to complete my initial digital image. I confess that I liked the challenge. In future, I may be tempted to continue this idea by painting other birds, or waterfowl, or perennial flowers of my region in the same fashion.

Voici une peinture représentant neuf oiseaux de la région d'Ottawa-Gatineau. En réalité, il ne s'agit pas d'une seule peinture, mais de neuf petits tableaux – une sorte de triptyque triple. Mon objectif était que chaque toile puisse exister comme une peinture indépendante représentant un chardonneret élégant, un pic flamboyant, un rouge-gorge, un geai bleu, une sittelle, un carouge à épaulettes, un cardinal, un pic mineur et une mésange. Je crois que j'ai réussit. Ce projet a débuté il y a quelques années, lorsque j'ai reçu un paquet de petites toiles de l'une de mes filles pour Noël. « Qu'en faire ?» me suis-je demandé. Je me suis souvenu d'une image numérique de neuf oiseaux que j'avais réalisée et j'ai pensé qu'il serait amusant de la reproduire à l'huile. Ce projet a demandé réflexion et organisation. J'ai commencé par visser soigneusement chaque toile vierge sur un grand morceau de contreplaqué verni afin que les toiles individuelles ressemblent à une seule grande toile. Bien que je souhaitais que ma peinture ressemble à mon image numérique, j'ai apporté quelques modifications, comme créer un érable au lieu d'un chêne. J'ai également pris mon temps pour peindre l'illustration, la mettant parfois de côté pour travailler sur d'autres peintures et croquis. Ces pauses m'ont permis de revenir sur le tableau avec un regard neuf. Au total, il m'a fallu environ 44 heures pour réaliser cette huile, soit deux fois plus de temps que mon image numérique initiale. J'avoue que le défi m'a plu. À l'avenir, je serai peut-être tenté de poursuivre cette idée en peignant d'autres oiseaux, des oiseaux aquatiques ou des fleurs vivaces de ma région de la même manière.

Here are 24 12" blocks of disappearing nine patches. The 12" blocks are not sewn together quite yet. This is made of approximately 862 2.5" squares-36 per 12" block.
A Riddles 4MT 2-6-0 and another filthy loco on a dismal day at Nine Elms with bits missing. You can't tell but this was an Eastleigh loco. The type was rare in my usual haunts on the NER and ER.
The early ones had a BR2/A tender (3,500 gallons, 6 tons of coal) but a small batch of 17 of which this is an example received much larger BR1B tenders (4,725 gallons, 7 tons).
