Triumph TR6 ('73-'74?)
Triumph TR6 History (1969-1976)
Offered as an affordable, six-cylinder sports car, the first Triumph TR6 rolled off the production line in 1968 as a 1969 model. It's intended target was to rival similar sports cars at the time, and although most were designed with sleek, curved lines, the TR6 was squared off at both ends, making it stand out from it's competitors. With just a seven year production span, the TR6 grew to become a true British classic.
The Triumph TR6 was offered as a convertible only, with a factory steel hard top available optionally. Construction was conservative; the body was bolted onto the frame, which featured a front anti-roll bar, rack and pinion steering, and semi-trailing arm independent rear suspension. Disc brakes were fitted at the front with drum brakes at the rear. The iconic look of the TR6 was completed by very distinctive 15-inch wheels and tires.
TR6 Engine Specs
The UK market TR6 had Lucas mechanical fuel-injection (150-horsepower), while the US market TR6 was fitted with a carbureter (104-horsepower). In 1973, the UK fuel-injected version was de-tuned to 125-horsepower through a camshaft change and revised fuel injection metering. These changes made the TR6 engine smoother and more flexible.
The base transmission was a manual 4-speed gearbox. An optional overdrive unit was available, and gave drivers close gearing for aggressive driving, with overdrive available on 2nd, 3rd and top gears on early models.
Acceleration from the 2.5 litre six-cylinder engine was quick; 0-60 mph in just 8.2 seconds. Equally impressive was a top speed of 120 mph.
The Triumph TR6 remained in production for a relatively short period of time, but has became one of the most popular and instantly recognizable cars in the company's stable. Most of the TR6 sales were in the U.S. - of the 94,619 models produced, 86,249 were exported, with just 8,370 sold in the U.K.

Castel Boccale at sunset offers such a romantic view, as always! I've missed the sea so much, and watching this sunset yesterday evening gave me life again. I was able, finally, to shot a long exposure of 30 seconds, even if it was really windy! There's still room for improvements, obviously, but I can say I'm not sorry with the overall result...!

Adventure in Baños:
The circuit offered by this park is a complete adventure in Baños. The excitement begins with a flight over the San Martin canyon through a 850 meters (2,788 ft) long zipline or canopy. I reached such speed that it seemed that I was swallowed by the throat of the canyon upon arrival. Fortunately they have an excellent brake system and a motorized platform that allows you to comfortably lower the cable. According to the guide who accompanied me, some people have come to fly at 130 km / h. The speed depends on the weight of each. It starts from a height of 150 meters (492 ft) above the river.
When I descended from the canopy I found a large basalt cave (dry lava) full of sand that makes me look as if I was on the moon. You could hear the strength of the Pastaza River as it passes through the canyoning.
Next, I had to cross the river bank and there was no better idea than to hang a 90 meters (295 ft) long Tibetan bridge. Two hand cables and small foot plates form this bridge located 50 meters (164 ft) above the torrential river. They say that the trick to not fear heights is not to see below, this was not an option here, you must see where to walk forced. The bridge moves with each step giving you a feeling of extreme adrenaline.
I was always with a safety harness in case I lose my balance, although I tell you that I did not want to experience hanging in the middle of the bridge, I took every step very carefully.
After this I found myself on a small path where the only way out is a vertical wall to climb. This was the third activity: the 90 meters (295 ft) ferrata track. Small metal stairs attached to the rocks allow me to ascend without major problem. Every certain section I had to change the safety harnesses on the steel cable, also called the "lifeline", to which the climber is attached all the time. The height ensures my nerves, calm.
Finally, I took a new 350 meters (1,148 ft) zipline at the other end of the canyon. In this one I could make several positions and breathe the pure air, excellent to relax after all the extreme activities.
This panorama offers a partial view of the Colorado River and the Glen Canyon Dam near Lake Powell and Page, Arizona. It is located near the colossal Horseshoe Bend featured on the previous image. The 710' high dam was built by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation between 1956 and 1966. It forms Lake Powell, one of the largest man-made reservoirs in the U.S. with a capacity of 27 million acre feet (33 km3). The dam is named for Glen Canyon, a series of deep sandstone gorges now flooded by the reservoir; Lake Powell is named for John Wesley Powell, who in 1869 led the first expedition to traverse the Colorado's Grand Canyon by boat.
S. Truncata Group 'Flor de Maio Alba'; note the very pointed teeth at the end of the segments, zygomorphic flowers held above the horizontal, and yellow pollen.
May flower: the cactus that offers beauty instead of thorns:
The May flower - common name of the species Schlumbergera truncata - is one of those plants that we tend to despise most of the year. It is, after all, a true botanical commonplace:
since the days of grandma's gardens, it has been hanging around on any balcony or housed in cachepots on some furniture in the living room. It is also a champion of popularity in floras - ready to be pushed by sellers every time the consumer searches for a plant “for beginners”.
This is all true, yes. But, as I was able to feel myself this week, the fact that it is party rice does not eliminate the extraordinary value and the pleasure of having a May flower inside the house. And pleasure is precisely in the miracle that works, out of nowhere, in your metabolism. During most of the year, the May flower is a discreet little thing, with its branches formed by fragile and evergreen buds releasing at most new buds. Suddenly, sometime between the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, behold that dull plant explodes in buttons with extremely striking shapes and colors - mine, for example, pump out between May and July.
flic.kr/p/2j5vm49
After flowering, it often withers, loses part of the buds and spends the rest of the year trying to recover from the excruciating effort of flowering.
The May flower is from the cactus family, but has no thorns. In its original habitat, the Atlantic Forest, it presents an epiphyte behavior. In other words: like orchids and many bromeliads, it uses tree trunks as a support. Thanks to horticultural improvement, the variety of colors available on the market today is immense. You can splurge, as you can see in this photo that illustrates this description, the flower of May WHITE.
Despite the fact that the May flower is a peaceful and favorable cultivation plant, some precautions are mandatory to avoid unpleasantness. Here is a basic guide to success:
1) SOIL - As it is a succulent, the may flower requires perfect drainage. She does, however, enjoy a lot of organic matter. So, plant it in pots with holes, filled with pebbles and sand at the bottom and the remaining two thirds completed with vegetable soil. Curiosity: if these conditions are met, the May flower can grow a lot and live for years in small pots.
2) WATERING - Do not overdo it and do not leave dishes filled with water under the pot, to avoid waterlogging and root rot. But also be sure to water frequently - two to four times a week, depending on the weather. She likes the slightly damp earth.
3) LUZ - This is, perhaps, the main catch. The May flower hates receiving direct sunlight, but enjoys well-lit environments. The right places for her, therefore, are balconies and bright interiors, but fresh. Or under the treetops.
4) FLOWERING - The May flower releases its buds when two variables combine: the nights become longer and the minimum temperatures are close to 10-15 degrees. And so it lives up to its name: in the Southeast of Brazil, these ideal conditions are usually registered between mid-May and the end of June.
5) POST-FLOWERING STRESS - May flower is a perennial species, that is, it does not die after giving flowers. Often, however, it cannot withstand the thud of its metabolic explosion: after so much effort, the stem buds become wilted and break easily. In the extreme, the plant dies from stress. To avoid this, it is necessary to redouble the care with nutrition. After flowering, increase the watering slightly and add a little earthworm humus or phosphorus-rich fertilizer (the “P” of the renowned NPK trio).
Last tip: take advantage of the loose buds to produce new seedlings. It's very easy, just fix a piece of them in moist soil.
Janjehli had a lot to offer to nature lovers and admirers of beauty. It had rained the whole day and it was at night that I clicked this shot of a beautiful yellow rose bud with a hint of red on its petals and another totally unopened bud covered in droplets of rain water with a pitch dark background where the buds are looking so well defined and so pretty giving the tiniest detail of the buds and the stem!

Return to Oxford St with a polarizer. Many thanks to Kozology for chooing this shot as the admins pick of the day in the Ministract group on June 4th 09:
"Many who have commented about this photo had a similar interpretation as I did: abstracted, intergalactic soldiers on the march! It also reminded me of the White Stripes' Seven Nation Army. The composition of the architecture and negative space offers a "leap of faith" of sorts to the viewer and thus the openess to our mutual interpretation. Congrats Myxi on being the Admin's pic of the day! What a beautiful ministract!"
Alentejo - Monsaraz
Perched above the Alqueva dam, Monsaraz benefits from a strategic location and a defensive potential that has always been recognized, as the Roman, Visigothic and Celtic passages attest.
Conquered to the Moors, in the reign of D. Dinis and delivered its defense to the Templars, it is this military order that adds to it, in the 14th century, the walls and the castle from where, even today one can look at neighboring Spain or extend the view across the great Alentejo plains.
With its narrow cobbled streets, which meander among ancient houses with white walls, it offers those who pass by there a very authentic feel of an ancient and medieval Portugal.
Alentejo - Monsaraz
Empoleirada por cima da albufeira do Alqueva, Monsaraz benificia duma localização estratégica e de um potencial defensivo desde sempre reconhecido, como a passagem de romanos , visigodos e celtas o atestam.
Conquistada aos mouros , no reinado de D. Dinis e entregue a sua defesa aos Templários, é esta ordem militar que lhe acrescenta, no século 14, as muralhas e o castelo de onde, ainda hoje se pode olhar para a vizinha Espanha ou estender a vista através das grandes planícies Alentejanas.
Com suas ruas estreitas de paralelepípedos, que serpenteiam entre casas antigas de paredes brancas, oferece a quem por lá passa uma sensação, muito autentica, de um Portugal antigo e medieval.

The Granger Homestead and Carriage Museum offers an 1816 Federal-style mansion in Canandaigua, New York. The property remained in the Granger family for four generations. A carriage house contains a carriage museum.
Two barns on the 10-acre (4.0 ha) hold close to 100 antique carriages and sleighs. One barn has a large collection of original Granger family farming equipment
The 35-acre Langdale Estate offers something for everyone with the 4-star Langdale Hotel, and 5-star self catering accommodation
The Estate is near the village of Elterwater in the English Lake District on the site of a former quarry.
In 1823 a local entrepreneur with an interest in quarrying, saw the potential for the manufacture of gunpowder on the site. The seclusion, natural waterpower and a growing demand from the Lakeland mines & quarries ensured success. Within a few years the Elterwater Gunpowder Works was not only supplying the domestic industry, but also exporting to North America & South Africa
The powder works closed in 1930, a victim of the depression & the development of more modern explosives, such as dynamite. A local landowner, recognising the potential of the unique location, bought & developed the site as a holiday resort in 1930 which has grown ever since

The Woodlands Waterway offers a quiet urban corridor where nature and modern architecture meet. The waterway provides a strong central leading line that draws the eye toward the distance. Glass-clad office towers rise on both sides, their cool blue façades reflecting softly in the still surface below. The reflections are nearly symmetrical, slightly softened by gentle ripples that add movement without breaking the tranquility. On the left, a curved pedestrian promenade lined with trees guides the viewer into the scene.

Ciao carissima
A elegante Basílica dos Mártires situa-se na famosa rua Garrett, no requintado e mítico Chiado, bem no centro da cosmopolita cidade de Lisboa.
Com origens bem antigas, diz-se que a Ermida foi erguida a mando do primeiro rei Português, D. Afonso Henriques, em honra a todos os cruzados martirizados na tomada de Lisboa aos Mouros em 1147, podendo-se ler no interior a seguinte inscrição “Nesta paróquia se administrou o primeiro baptismo depois da tomada de Lisboa aos Mouros no ano de 1147”.
Não obstante, o presente templo começou a ser construído em 1769 e foi terminado em 1786, ostentando um profuso estilo Barroco tão característico da marca Pombalina do Lisboa pós terramoto de 1755, de acordo com o projecto do muito conceituado Arquitecto Reynaldo Manuel dos Santos.
L'elegante Basilica dei Martiri si trova sulla famosa Garrett, la squisita e leggendario Chiado, proprio nella città cosmopolita di Lisbona.
Con origini antichissime, si dice che la cappella fu costruita per volere del primo re portoghese, D. Afonso Henriques, in onore di tutti i martiri croce nel prendere Lisbona dai Mori nel 1147 e può essere letto nel seguente iscrizione "In questa parrocchia è stato somministrato il primo battesimo dopo la cattura di Lisbona ai Mori per l'anno 1147."
Tuttavia, l'attuale tempio fu iniziata nel 1769 e fu completata nel 1786, che vanta uno stile barocco sontuoso così caratteristico del marchio Pombal di Lisbona dopo il terremoto del 1755, secondo Architetto altamente considerato del progetto Reynaldo dos Santos.

“When fortune calls, offer her a chair”....Thanks Rita for your testimonial!
I want to take a moment and celebrate all my Flickr contacts as well - I chose to photograph a section of my kitchen chair (above) as a symbol of the friendship I have with most of you. The strands represent all of you, coming together to form a single point of strength and every day providing me with support and most of all encouragement. As with the chair, every strand counts - from the most timid but consistent "fave" (you know who you are) to the most flamboyant award giver (you know who you are too!). Please know that all this support combined has helped to up my quality and has stirred my imagination to a degree I never thought possible. We must learn to trust what we see and photograph it in the best possible way. Thank you and here's to quality, good fortune and honest opinions!

Op de begraafplaats staan de granieten beelden van het Treurend Ouderpaar, gemaakt door de Berlijnse kunstenares Käthe Kollwitz in herinnering aan haar achttienjarige zoon Peter Kollwitz. Hij had vrijwillig dienst genomen als musketier en was op 23 oktober 1914 in het naburige Esen gesneuveld.[1] Het graf van Peter ligt vlak voor het treurende ouderpaar. Het originele grafkruisje van Peter Kollwitz staat in het In Flanders Fields Museum.
In het beeldenpaar heeft Käthe Kollwitz een gebeiteld portret gemaakt van zichzelf en haar man Karl.[2] De gescheiden beelden beleven hun verdriet elk voor zich. De knielende vader staart naar het graf van zijn zoon en heeft de armen voor de borst gekruist. De moeder is afgebeeld met gebogen hoofd en heeft haar hand in haar nek gelegd, alsof ze een kind wiegt. Er is geen spoor van trots over de gevallen held of dank voor het gebrachte offer. In hun rouw en gemis lijken de ouders zich vooral het verwijt te maken dat ze hun kind naar de oorlog hebben laten gaan. De nazi's beschouwden de kunst van Käthe Kollwitz dan ook als "ontaard".
Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) are some of the UK’s most outstanding and treasured landscapes. With 46 AONBs covering just under 1/5th of the UK, they offer a wealth of opportunities for both people and wildlife to benefit from our countryside. AONBs are on par with the UK’s National Parks, each AONB is an outstanding landscape whose distinctive character and natural beauty is so precious that it is safeguarded in the national interest.
(EN) The curved basement gallery of Alicante's Provincial Palace offers one of the city's quieter art experiences — a circular space of polished marble, clerestory light and white walls that follow a gentle arc. Three large-format oils occupy the wall, their warm ochres and golds answering the warm tones of the stone floor.
The central work commands the room: a luminous depiction of a 1920s touring car rendered in broad, confident strokes, its golden coachwork glowing against a background of tropical vegetation and figures in period dress. The painting reads less as transport and more as theatre — movement, colour and Mediterranean light held in a single frame. Finally, the curved architecture quietly amplifies everything it contains.
(ES) La galería curva del sótano del Palacio Provincial de Alicante ofrece una de las experiencias artísticas más tranquilas de la ciudad: un espacio circular de mármol pulido, luz cenital y paredes blancas que siguen un arco suave. Tres óleos de gran formato ocupan la pared, cuyos ocres y dorados cálidos dialogan con los tonos del suelo de piedra.
La obra central domina la sala: una representación luminosa de un automóvil de turismo de los años veinte, ejecutada con pinceladas amplias y seguras, su carrocería dorada resplandeciendo ante un fondo de vegetación exuberante y figuras con trajes de época. El cuadro se lee menos como transporte y más como teatro — movimiento, color y luz mediterránea contenidos en un solo encuadre. Y por último, la arquitectura curva amplifica en silencio todo lo que alberga.
