Lead architect: Rosemary Stjernstedt of the LCC, Ove Arup engineers, 1955. Entrance to a point block of 42 flats in Norley Vale. "The name point block was coined by the Alton East team and is derived from the Swedish punkthus" [source - Grade 2 listing]. The estate's massing and retention of planting from the earlier Victorian villas "epitomises the humanist tradition in post-war British architecture". Roehampton, London Borough of Wandsworth,

It is a two mile round trip from the Cedar Breaks Visitor Center to Spectra Point along the Ramparts Trail. The trail is lined with wildflowers and spectacular views. The summer flowering makes a nice complement to the subtle hues of the sandstone hoodoos. See more at Internet Brothers National Monuments Gallery.
I tried microclicks with a Holga at Ft. Zachary Taylor in Key West, Florida. Afterward I took a shot of the southernmost point in the United States.
This was the first time I've done any microclick exposures and I was handholding the camera. The film is Lomography Redscale.

The Point Montara Lighthouse first saw service from 1881 to 1922 at Mayo Beach on Cape Cod. For years, it was believed that the Mayo Beach tower had been destroyed after the light was discontinued in 1922, but while conducting research for a lighthouse book, Colleen MacNeney came across a 1928 photograph of a tower in Yerba Buena, California with the following inscription: "This tower formerly used at Mayo Beach, 2d District." This discovery prompted MacNeney to dig deeper, and she eventually found correspondence in the National Archives that proved that in 1928 the Mayo Beach tower was sent from Massachusetts to Yerba Buena and then to Point Montara. Standing only 30 feet high, the lighthouse is short by most standards, but good for keeping the beam beneath the fog.

Seruni Point, Bromo, East Java, Indonesia.
"The Tenggerese with their handsome horses ready to provide an easy ride to sunrise watchers for a fee of IDR100,000 and IDR50,000, ascending and descending respectively. The climb starts at circa 2.30 am and the route was rather steep and exhaustive that could leave many panting in the thin air and chilling temperature."
Seruni Point is one the two vista points at Mount Pananjakan of the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park consisting a massif of volcanic complex.

The Point Arena Lighthouse stands tall and proud on the Northern California Mendocino Coast.
There has been a lighthouse here since 1870. This particular lighthouse was built in 1908, replacing the original tower which had been damaged beyond repair in the Great San Francisco Earthquake of 1906.
This new reinforced concrete lighthouse was built by a construction company specializing in industrial smokestacks, which is why it looks like one.
I used a KITE to fly the camera.
This is the most southern horse in the USA. Just yards from Point Kalae Beach, on the Big Island of Hawaii.

The HandyScan 700 scanner seen here was used to create a digital image of the copy press. Specialized software then recreated the object as a point cloud of data to render a 3D auto-generated mesh diagram of the museum artefact.
A computer-controlled 3D printer then used the additive method commonly used in this type of printing to deposit a heated material, thin layer by thin layer until the model was completed.

Nous avons utilisé ce scanneur HandyScan 700 pour produire une image numérique de la presse à copier. Un logiciel spécialisé a ensuite recréer l’objet sous forme de nuage de points pour ensuite obtenir un diagramme sous forme de treillis 3D généré automatiquement de la presse à copier.
Une imprimante 3D informatisée se servant de la méthode de fabrication additive couramment utilisée pour ce type d’impression a superposer de minces couches d’un matériau chauffé jusqu’à ce que le modèle soit créé.
