Inside the Smørrebrød shop, really had to struggle to get things in focus with the short distances. Could have opened up a bit on the aperture but I love the movement unsharpness of the "chef" as well as I´m surprised by my steady hand at 1/12th ;)

Order...

Namtso is one of the three holy lakes in Tibet and significant for Tibetan Buddhists. Kora is a Tibetan word that means "circumambulation" or "revolution". Kora is both a type of pilgrimage and a type of meditative practice in the Tibetan Buddhism. Thus, Namtso Kora means pilgrimage walk around the Lake Namtso.

 

Namtso literally means heavenly lake in Tibetan language. Located around 240km northwest of Lhasa, capital of Tibet, it takes four hours’ driving from Lhasa. Extending 70 km from east to west and 30 km from south to north, the lake covers an area of 1,920 sq km and has an altitude of 4748 m above sea level. It is biggest lake in Tibet and the second biggest salt lake in China as well as one of the highest lakes in the world. The water in the lake is crystally clear and blue. The blue sky joins the surface of the lake in the distance, creating an integrated, scenic vista.

 

In every Tibetan year of sheep, thousands of Tibetan Buddhism believers will come here to worship this sacred lake. As a rule, they will walk clockwise along the Namtso Lake in order to receive the blessing of the gods.

 

There are several fine Tibet treks around the lake. The shortest one is roughly 4 kilometers and takes less than one hour. It starts from the accommodation area to a hermit’s cave hidden behind a large spinter of rock. The kora continues to a rocky promontory of cairns and prayer flags. At the promontory, pilgrims undertake a ritural washing in the lake. And then the trail continues past several caves and a prostration point where there are two rock towers looking like two hands. Pilgrims squeeze into the deep slices of the nearby cliff face as a means of sin detection or drink water dripping from cave roofs, even swallow holy dirt.

Old soldiers never die they only fade away.

But the young ones do not die, no they are cut down instead.

And someone pulled the trigger, gave the order, held the sword,

And some one wrote the advert in the paper that they read.

Thy will be done,

But you won't get your hands on my son.

You can wait till kingdom come.

In order to bring this fellow into the right light, a had setup a flash light (with kind of cold white light) behind an empty toilet paper roll, which I covered with some ducked tap to have a very small exit point for the light. The setup and the outcome turned out to be as complicated as I expected upfront.

Planet - Felucia

================

 

CC - 7131, Station Log

 

/\/\ Log Entry /\/\

 

Sector 3

 

Jedi Master Evensan, along with Master Secura, have been transported to the planet Felucia in order to stop a Separatist plot to capture the surface for a staging ground.

 

Myself and my battalion have been tasked with surveillance of the edge of the Republic's landing zone. Master Evensan, though this bores him, has volunteered to join us for the company.

 

So far all is quiet, but vigilance is required. The Separatists could attack at any moment...

 

/\/\ End Log /\/\

 

CC - 7131: "General! Droids spotted in sector 4!"

 

The Jedi's lightsaber blades ignited, with a glow of blue illuminating the platform beneath his feet.

 

CC - 7131 and his men began firing at the droids, unaware that another squadron of B1 droids had already reached the bottom of the platform the clones were standing on. They began scaling the supports of the platform, unknown to the clone troopers.

 

The first droids made their way onto the platform, surprising a few troopers, which killed them in the process.

 

CC - 7131: "Droids on the platform! Squad, tighten formation!"

 

The clones formed up, taking out the droids on the platform as they did so. One trooper threw thermal detonators into the midst of the droids attacking the platform on foot, creating a blast of flame and metal body parts. With the droids on the ground handled, Master Evansan directed his attention to the droids on the platform, finishing them off with the help of his men.

 

CC - 7131: "Enemy neutralized, General Evansan."

 

Evansan: "Indeed, though I sense our battle is not yet over. There is a great darkness approaching, I can feel it in the Force. There are dark times ahead of us all."

 

CC - 7131: "Whatever it is, sir, we can handle it...together."

 

Evansan put a hand on his captain's shoulder.

 

Evansan: "I know we can, Ray. You've never let me down. I'm going to go report our status to Master Secura."

 

CC - 7131 (Ray): "Very good, sir."

 

As Evansan began to walk away, Ray's holoprojector beeped, signaling an incoming transmission. Ray took the 'projector off his belt, and turned it on to receive the message. He was surprised to see Chancellor Palpatine appear in hologram form before him.

 

Palpatine: "Captain Ray. It is finally time. Execute Order 66 immediately. Ever Jedi is a traitor to the Republic, and must die."

 

Good soldiers follow orders, Ray heard him say in his head.

 

CC - 7131 (Ray): "Yes, my Lord. It will be done."

 

And so it was. Captain Ray of the Grand Army of the Republic turned his weapon on Jedi Master Evansan, and pulled the trigger.

 

===============

 

Hello there! This is my "application" build to join the Dark Times group. I've been wanting to build a little Order 66 vignette for a while, so this was a perfect opportunity once I heard about this awesome group of builders.

 

I chose to do Felucia, which I don't think is done too often. I tried to make it very different from other Felucia MOC's. Usually there is a ton of more growth, but I decided to thin it out a bit, as if the Republic recently built their little outpost.

 

Let me know what you think, both of the build and story! :)

 

May the Force of others be with you!

Through the creations that I build, I hope to inspire other young (or perhaps older) LEGO builders to unleash their inner creativity. We all need a positive way to express ourselves, so let's let LEGO be an extension of us. Your creativity belongs to you, and nobody can take that away. Build what you want to build, and how you want to build it.

"It wasn't always like this. But now, there are 3 rules to survive: Don't stand out. Accept the past. Trust no one. The galaxy has changed. Whatever you do -- don't reach within."

 

A large build I created in honor of Jedi: Fallen Order, the brand new Star Wars game coming out. This model is roughly 2 ft. by 1 ft., and was a challenge to photograph. I definitely recommend you visit my website for more photos of this thing!

 

The build itself is supposed to be part of a Venator wing that's being salvaged by the Empire, when one of the lifting cables snaps and causes Cal and his friend to fall off the edge. You can see this in the trailer for the game!

It's hard to imagine that three days ago, freezing rain was enveloping everything - bringing down trees and power lines - or that tonight we are under a heavy rainfall warning, which may even include thunderstorms.

 

Late this afternoon, at least, the sun was shining, the temperature climbed up to 16 Celsius, and the waiter had a rush order of beer on a patio at the Blue Mountain Ski Resort.

What a wonderful bridge to shoot, that you Bro (Richard Binns) for taking me to the High Level Bridge in Newcastle, what a structure. Great light (at night) on the bridge allowing shadows and illuminating the detail in the ironwork. I also love the cheeky starburst that crept in. Definately on my "go back to" list.

Excerpt from facebook.com:

 

Križanke Church - In the 13th century, the Order of Teutonic Knights, settled at the upper end of the Novi trg square and built a church there. The only surviving item from the church is the famous relief of the Madonna of Krakovo from the church's main portal. The relief, created between 1265 and 1270, is now kept at the National Gallery of Slovenia.

 

The present Križanke Church was built between 1714 and 1715 by Domenico Rossi, one of the leading Venetian architects of the time. This indicates that the only church of the cross located on Slovenian territory was of great importance not only to the Knights of the Cross but also to the imperial court in Vienna, which donated interior furnishings. Side altars were painted by the court painters Martin Altomonte and Anton Schoonjans. The main altar painting, a work by Johann Michael Rottmayr which burnt down in the 19th century, was replaced by a painting by the Viennese painter Hans Canon in 1859.

Palermo’s Palazzo delle Poste e Telegrafi (1929–1934)

 

Your frontal composition is perfect for this building because it was conceived as a demonstration of strict order and modular clarity. Designed by Angiolo Mazzoni in the language of Italian Rationalism, the post-and-telegraph headquarters asserts itself on Via Roma with a deep, temple-like portico of ten colossal columns and a heavy entablature. Behind that disciplined façade is a reinforced-concrete frame clad in locally quarried Billiemi stone, laid out with rigorous symmetry around two side courtyards. The frontality of your shot heightens the building’s serial rhythm—the equal intercolumniation, the stacked horizontal bands, and the measured void of the portico—which are all about efficiency, legibility, and civic monumentality. Even small details were designed for coherence, from the custom metalwork to the calibrated lighting, and the entrance sequence pivots around a large elliptical staircase that dramatizes movement within an otherwise tightly ordered plan.

The interiors extend this programmatic clarity into a visionary register: the Conference Room carries five Futurist panels by Benedetta Cappa Marinetti—a cycle on land, sea, air, telegraph and radio communications—made specifically for this building, with additional works by Tato and Piero Bevilacqua, plus a bronze Diana cacciatrice by Corrado Vigni. Reading the architecture through your frontal view, you’re foregrounding exactly what the project celebrates: communication, modern services, and a state-of-the-art public machine expressed through proportion, repetition, and an almost didactic symmetry—without needing any extra scenography.
