My daughter Jacqui, originally saw this shot and took a picture with her camera. I liked the parallel lines so much that I copied/stole her idea.
The sea and tracks are in Manarola, Italy, which is where I spent two weeks in April. Manarola was probably my favorite place in Italy as it was a small hillside village on the western coast of Italy.

The gap is getting smaller. Now we are adding strips from the keel down, or up depending on how you look at it. You can see the parallel strips clearly here. These strips get shaped one at a time to fit against the other ones.
To avoid fighting two stags will pose and parade, trying to impress each other by their size and power. Part of this is the parallel walk, a chance to get the measure of the challenger. Usually one will back down, but if not, "combat" commences!
I am studying digital art and photography at Bodmin College. My beautiful friend Rose gave up her sunday evening to stand in a freezing cold, fast flowing river, be covered in three bags of flour and painted completely white for my 'Parallel Worlds' project at Respryn Woods, Conwall. She did a fabulous job and i will upload my final digital art piece as soon as it's finished. The idea of my final piece is to question the viewer as to what happens to our body if we were to cross into the parallel world or even bigger; what it would look like. Temperature? Creatures? Plants?

This parish is a long narrow strip, about a mile wide, running parallel with Ditchling and having Streat on its eastern side. It has an area of 2,095 acres. In 1934 a detached portion including Novington was transferred to East Chiltington, a parish which for many centuries had been a chapelry of Westmeston. The soil is loam, chalk, and clay, with a subsoil of chalk and ironstone, and the chief crops are wheat, oats, peas, beans, and turnips. The southern end of the parish is downland, rising abruptly to an altitude of 800 ft. on the eastern side of Ditchling Beacon, and running south to High Park Corner. At the foot of the Downs a road runs eastward to Lewes, the church and the few cottages of the village being situated at its junction with Underhill Lane, coming from the west, and the road from Ditchling, coming from the northwest. The altitude of this part of the parish is about 325 ft., and it slopes gradually down to 129 ft., rising again to 200 ft. at the northern end. At that end it is crossed by the road from Burgess Hill to Chailey, and the railway line from Haywards Heath to Lewes. There is a good deal of woodland in the north of the parish. There is a church mission room in the north of the parish, on the edge of Ditchling Common. Hailey Farm lies north of the village, on the boundary of Streat parish.
Westmeston Place stands on the west side of the road from Ditchling, a little north of the church. The house is of two stories with attics; the walls are chiefly flint, plastered in part, with tile-hanging; the roofs are tiled, with Georgian and later chimneys. The plan is Lshaped, with the ends to north and east, the west wing, with a westerly projection, containing the kitchen and offices. The south range contains the principal rooms and incorporates work of several periods, with a modern addition to the east. The west gable and most of the south wall date from c. 1500, and there was alteration in the mid 16th and early 17th centuries. This gable contains two windows lighting the parlour; to the south an early-16th-century two-light with four-centred heads, chamfered mullion, and ovolo label, and north of it a mid-16th-century three-light with filleted-roll mullion and ogee-moulded label. Over each is a twolight window, the south of mid-16th and the north of early-16th-century type. The attic window may be possibly of the late 15th century, having three pointed lights in a square head with hollow-chamfered mullions. The scullery projection on this side shows at first-floor level a remnant of 15th-century cinquefoil tracery in three slender panels reset as ornament.
The south front, disguised beneath plaster or modern brick, with tile-hanging, has a wide chimney projection. The porch west of this is of flint with sandstone dressings, not central with the entrance, and is of doubtful date, its openings, of 16th-century type, being possibly insertions. A chamfered four-centred doorway opens eastwards, at right angles to the main entrance, which is of similar form; the south wall has a fourcentred light in a square head with ogee-moulded jambs, and in the west wall is an oblong chamfered window. The north exterior shows work of various dates and projections in flint and modern brick, with a bay window to the hall. The kitchen range is in flint pebble with brick quoins and has tile-hanging on the north wall at first-floor level.
The early-16th-century hall was probably open to the roof, with a two-storied parlour block to the west; the main fire-place remains, though modernized, on the south wall. The first floor may have been inserted when the staircase was added, c. 1560–70; this shows an early type of Elizabethan newel—one square central post with a large finial at first-floor level; there is a turned balustrade above. The staircase curtails the bay window on the east side, but this six-light transomed window has square heads and filleted-roll mouldings, original only on the first floor, and does not seem much earlier. Joining the bay to the hall are contemporary moulded posts, the easternmost forming, on each floor, the jamb of a square opening spanning a passage. These suggest that the stairs led to a gallery along the north side of the hall. The square opening is not in line with the wall between the present dining-and sitting-rooms, but that above aligns with the thinner wall between two bedrooms. The easternmost of the bedrooms has early-17th-century panelling, and a typical Jacobean overmantel. The fire-place is apparently later. The parlour, now the lounge, is separated from the entrance passage by a screen, now open, with Elizabethan balusters. In the north-west angle of this room is a stone fire-place, probably contemporary with the staircase; it has a four-centred head and cavetto- and ogeemoulded jambs. The letters I and M are carved in shields in the spandrels, probably for John Michelborne. (fn. 1) There is an iron fire-back dated 1571. The attic stair is in a projection west of the bay window. There is a wattle-and-daub partition between the hall and parlour attics, with a four-centred opening in it. The kitchen wing shows a wide blocked fire-place, and some stop-chamfered ceiling beams.
Old Middleton, off the main road to Lewes, has a late-18th-century brick front to a probably 17thcentury house.
There are a few early-17th-century cottages in the north of the parish, on the road from Wivelsfield Green to Streat. One, in a field near North America Farm, is timber-framed with later brick and tile-hanging and contains a central chimney-stack with wide lintelled fire-places, and exposed ceiling beams. Whitecote, opposite North America Farm, is probably contemporary, and has a wide fire-place and external stack.
Middleton Common Farm lies on the north side of the road from Burgess Hill to Chailey. It is a timberframed house of two bays, with square panels, tiled roof, and a modern brick extension to the north. The central chimney is partly of 17th-century date, and serves a wide fire-place with bread oven.

I saw someone's flickr shot of their mac running parallels, with the XP VM redone in a osx theme using windowblinds... i decided to do the same thing, but for free using a StyleXP based theme, and the uxtheme patcher... turned out pretty darn good i think :-)

A devotee hangs himself on metal hooks to fulfill his vows.
24th Annual Chariot festival of Sri Mayurapathy Paththirakaali temple is held today (6th of August 2011) in Colombo amidst heavy downpour. Five wooden carved chariots parade through the streets of Bambalapitty (Colombo 04), Havelock Town (Colombo 05) and Wellawatte (Colombo 06).
Devotees dressed elegantly and took part in religious rituals such as carrying clay pots of camphor, rolling themselves on the ground, smashing coconuts and hanging on hooks (Kaavadi ~ Men only). Few devotees who fulfill their vows, got into trance and danced on the streets. Devotional songs played throughout the dazzling parade. Traditional and non ~ traditional musical instruments added colour to the festival.

An elderly woman walks her bicycle down a narrow Alassio street, while a younger woman veers off the street into an adjacent doorway. They are in such close proximity in space and time, but each is oblivious of the other.
"Parallel Lives" can be looked at in several ways, I guess. It's a good metaphor for alienation and depersonalization and such. It could also be a metaphor for pattern and routine and limited consciousness or entrenched thinking, with the way the structures of those doors wall the woman in. And it could be a comment on aging, of course. Or culture. What does it make you think of? Image c Lynda Lehmann.

Looking over the side of a bridge in The Rocks, I saw a car parked beside a parking station. Unfortunately, despite my careful composition the car wasn't perfectly parallel to the kerb.

Chicago, Illinois, looking north in the public alley located east of and parallel to N. Sheffield Avenue. Photo made with a Nikon Z7.
This view of the underside of the CTA - Chicago Transit Authority "L" steel structure seems simple enough, but it actually has a somewhat complicated history. In 1896 the Northwestern Elevated Railroad Company began construction of a new rapid transit route that extended north from near the intersection of N. Wells Street and W. Lake Street in downtown Chicago to W. Wilson Avenue near N. Broadway. It was completed in 1899 and began regular service in 1900. The line was double track on a steel structure to N. Franklin Street and W. Chicago Avenue and thereafter constructed as four tracks on a steel structure. Almost all portions of the line north of W. Chicago Avenue were constructed over alleys and through neighborhoods already built up with low rise residential buildings rather than over dedicated street rights-of-ways found elsewhere in Chicago (downtown, the Lake Street "L" and 63rd Street on the South Side come to mind). So when the four track line reached W. Willow Street, as with previous construction south of this location, the only clear path north to accommodate the four track width was through the back yards of residential properties that face onto N. Bissell Street. The owners of these properties were under the threat of imminent domain to sell the west portions of their properties to the transit company. At that time the four track steel structure was not built over the adjacent alley shown in my photo. In 1936 the now operator of the elevated lines, Chicago Rapid Transit, applied for and received a grant from the Federal Government to build a new subway transit line under and through downtown Chicago. It was popularly known as the State Street Subway. Construction of the subway line began in 1938 and was completed in 1943. The north portal of the subway was located just north of W. Willow Street. The resulting ramp to get the two track subway line up to street grade and further up to align with two center tracks of the four track steel structure required no small amount of track reconstruction between W. Willow Street and W. Armitage Avenue. What appears in my photo is one half (two tracks) of the original Northwestern steel structure. Apparently the structure was cut in half, with the resulting west half two track portion shown here moved one track width to the west (left) and reinstalled. As can be seen on the right side of the photo is the west concrete retaining wall that supports the subway ramp. The resulting space under the relocated steel structure was paved over and incorporated into the existing alley on the left in the photo. Sometime after 1963 (not sure exactly when) the two outer tracks of what resulted in six parallel tracks being operated simultaneously in this location were removed from service, but the streel structure was left in place. So in my photo only the right track is currently active. It allows Brown Line and Purple Line "L" trains to continue south on the original Northwestern route to downtown Chicago. Red Line trains use the subway route.
