Michael Patten was a professor of ancient civilizations at Gotham University, specializing in lost civilization and the theories behind their disappearances. His lectures and theories caught the attention of the Riddler, leading to him consulting Patten for riddles for his crimes. Due to the fact that the Riddler is, well, the Riddler, Patten agreed, and aided Nygma in creating riddles for crimes. However, Nygma purposefully rigged the riddles so that the clues would lead back to Patten. Arrested and disgraced, Patten began to seek out vengeance. When he was released from Black Gate, he became the Answer, calling himself, “the answer to Gotham’s seedy underground.” Patten’s violent take on justice put him at odds with Batman, leading Patten to add Batman to the problem he seeks to answer. In his mind, Batman’s approach to justice is a problem, and only he can answer it
"An architectural competition was held in 1962 for an office tower to be placed behind the Old Treasury Building and on an axis with Collins Street. Despite not conforming to the brief, Barry Patten of Yuncken Freeman won the competition with a design for two buildings; a low scale building directly behind the Old Treasury Building to house government ministers and the Premier, and a taller tower to the north of matching design. A third building, to house the State Chemical Laboratories, was constructed to the east of the tower at the same time in the late 1960s, and all were placed within an elevated plaza, with a basement containing the State Film Centre, an auditorium, car parking and mechanical services located below. Completed by 1970, the buildings were designed in a modern and severe style, with proportions, window openings and materials used reflecting those of surrounding buildings in the precinct. Innovative load bearing precast panelling was used in construction."

I FINALLY developed a roll of film I had sitting on my desk for the past month. Worse yet, I put the roll in the camera last summer or fall. I simply MUST do better this season. Nevertheless, it's really nice to have something fresh to post (freshly developed that is).

Close up of a grid that goes over a lighting modifier. There is red filter between the grid and flash which was sat on the table about 12 inches from the grid. Added a thin yellow plastic light tube to add some depth.
Macro Monday Repetitive Patten theme
From our cycle camping trip in Maine in early September, the early morning sun tries to break through the mist that hangs over the water on Patten Pond.
This place was London's main fish market from 16th century to 1982 when it was relocated to the Isle of Dogs (to some nondescript building) and the site given over to offices.
The market building (the yellow one) was designed by Horace Jones of Tower Bridge fame and built in 1877. It was built in Italianate style and in my mind was heavily influenced by Fondaco dei Turchi in Venice. George Orwell worked here in the 1930.
That huge skyscraper under construction is 20 Fenchurch Street, which still divides opinion, and Im largely undecided about it too. The little church next to the green block is St Margaret Pattens designed by Wren and built in 1687, while the spire to the right belongs to St Dunstan in the East, redesigned by Wren in 1671, it was bombed during WWII and instead of being restored was turned into a garden.

This was a very pretty lake, but I struggled for quite some time to try to get a decent shot. Of course shooting in midday sun on a day without clouds is something I always find very challenging.
I just love the deep green color of these high mountain lakes and it's always fun to trudge through snow in July. Man I surely do love the Northwest!
The ruined remains of a sanatorium for tuberculosis patients, in the Dripping Springs Natural Area, New Mexico.
The sanatorium and nearby Van Patten's Mountain Camp both had a troubled history, complete with bankruptcies, land disputes and lawsuits.
The metal mesh has been added to keep people from getting inside and further damaging the old buildings.
Thanks for visiting!
