This is really different from the work that i have been producing lately, But it seems like i have one decent conceptual piece every week and half or so . It would be cool if i could create more conceptual photos everyday but i just cant seem to find the time to set everything up.
And i guess the concept behind this photo is all explained in the title.
I really appreciate any constructive feedback/ critiques :)

Pine Tree in Infrared @ Kubota GarKubota Garden is a 20 acre Japanese garden in the Rainier Beach neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. A public park since 1987, it was started in 1927 by Fujitaro Kubota, a Japanese emigrant. Today, it is maintained as a public park by the Seattle Department of Parks and Recreation and the Kubota Garden Foundation.
Fujitaro Kubota emigrated from Shikoku, Japan in 1907 and established the Kubota Gardening Company in 1923. Projects of his included the garden at Seattle University and the Japanese garden at Bloedel Reserve in Bainbridge Island. In 1927, he bought 5 acres of swampland in Rainier Beach to start the garden and in 1930 increased the size of the garden to 30 acres. Kubota Garden served as cultural center for the Japanese community in Seattle, as well as a home, office and nursery for his business. During World War II, Kubota Garden was abandoned for four years as Kubota and his family were interned at Camp Minidoka in Idaho. During his internment, Kubota supervised the building of a community park, which included a Japanese rock garden. After the war, he and his sons Tak and Tom Kubota rebuilt the business.
The Japanese government awarded Kubota the Fifth Class Order of the Sacred Treasure in 1972 "for his achievements in his adopted country, for introducing and building respect for Japanese Gardening in this area." Kubota maintained the garden until his death in 1973.
In 1981, the Seattle Landmarks Preservation Board declared the core 4.5 acres of the park to be a historical landmark of the City of Seattle. In 1987, the City of Seattle bought the garden from the Kubota family, and it is now maintained by the Department of Parks and Recreation as well as volunteers from the Kubota Garden Foundation.
In addition, 17 acres surrounding the park has been purchased by the Open Space Program in the City of Seattle in order to protect Mapes Creek, which runs through the park. The Tom Kubota Stroll Garden broke ground in 1999 and was opened in 2000. The garden received a new entrance gate designed by Gerard Tsutakawa in 2004.
The garden has encountered the problems associated with vandalism when the staff has left for the day—as evidenced by beer bottles strewn about on the property. Shell casings are a sign that firearms have been fired; and graffiti has appeared.
The Kubota Garden Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization founded in 1989 to "support, enhance, and perpetuate the Kubota Garden within the spirit and vision of Fujitaro Kubota." Kubota's vision included opening the garden to the public and increasing American understanding and appreciation of Japanese Gardens. The foundation provides additional fundraising, volunteer work, and publications to support the garden.

This is my project for the Bricklink Designer Program: Series 1.
If you'd like to see this turned into an official LEGO set, please vote for the project here on Bricklink!
www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/series-1/446/Victor...
There, you will also find more info about the set, including: the dimensions, the part count, what comes with the set and my inspiration for the many details throughout.
The Bricklink Designer Program (BDP) is similar to LEGO Ideas, where votes are tallied to see if LEGO will produce the set, only the final design won't look much different than the original submission with BDP. They want the fan designs to remain as unchanged as possible when they are finally produced.
Another key difference with BDP is, there are only a maximum of 20,000 sets produced. So these sets are much rarer and sell out quickly. It is best to follow a project/creator early on to stay informed of when a set will go on sale. This will save you money and regret because after they sell out, they tend to cost a lot more on aftermarket websites.
Here are some key dates:
March 7 - 31, 2023: Crowd Validation/Vote Phase
April - May 2023: LEGO Review Phase
Late May 2023: 5 Designs Announced
February 2024: Crowdfunding Phase
Summer /Fall 2024: Production & Shipping
I’d like to present my entry to the BrickLink Designer Program Series 1 - Bob’s Café and Johnny’s Bakery!
It has a chance to become a limited edition LEGO set, so if you like it, please consider voting for it! - www.bricklink.com/v3/designer-program/series-1/414/Bob's-...
The set idea contains two buildings: the corner building has a café on the ground floor, a LEGO fan's apartment on the first floor, and a nice, cosy roof terrace. The second building has a small bakery on the ground floor and a small apartment on the first floor; but there's also an attic where minifigures can store their old stuff they're not using.
These houses are modular, which means you can connect them using technic pins and you can also easily remove/add multiple floors to them, and they’re compatible with the new LEGO road system. They have a much smaller footprint than classic modular buildings, but the facades and interiors are really detailed, so I hope AFOLs and younger builders will like this set.

Prompted on World Parrot Day, and with the extraordinary co-operative effort of the photographer, here we have a rare find.
This kākāpō chick was in the able care of hands from the Kākāpō Recovery Program . The photographer was the enthralled witness to this scene.
Please don't ask for more details as refusal may offend…or I might have to cook my own dinner.

In the pews at the Xime show. An exercise in onstage presentation, without actually providing entertainment - good experience for these music students, I guess.
Some days you're the bug, sometimes you're the windshield.
Dans les bancs du salon Xime. Un exercice de présentation sur scène, sans réellement offrir de divertissement - une bonne expérience pour ces étudiants en musique, je suppose.

Given this by a Widow who was a member of Brentwood Photographic Club -- her Husband died 1993 in his darkroom -- she is still sorting out gear from the garage ! This was covered in DUST and 50mm lens had the start of 'Fungus Flecks' in front and rear surfaces which I cleaned off just in time due to many years in damp garage. She owns NIKON FE cameras so I have serviced them as much as I can for her. The OLYMPUS Spot Program is supposed to ' Eat Batteries' so I am taking them out when not being used.
it has to start somewhere
it has to start sometime
what better place than here
what better time than now ...

Chemical Peels have been used for decades to revitalize and resurface the skin. They involve applying a chemical solution to remove the damaged outer layers of the skin and reveal a younger, clearer, more radiant complexion. www.tahacademy.ca/chemical-peels.html
Inspired by the Architectural wonders of Andreas, KingBrick and Stijn Oom.
I wanted to primarily test destruction in this build, but one thing led to another and I ended up making something with much more life and flavour than I had originally intended to create.
This tree, that's so photogenic and smells so nice, is actually in a back alley. Less than 1 mile from downtown. Love that :-)
I remember seeing tron when I was little and I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Fast forward 8 years and LEGO ideas released this great little set. the printing on the figures is genuinely impressive. Perfect size for a desk; I definitely recommend picking this one up!
