At 'the sails' on the waterfront, outside the TSB Arena. Snapped as I came out of a travel expo in there when I realised I needed a shot for the day. I've now booked my flights to the UK for the middle of this year: I've very excited.

This evening I took the train over to the Wairarapa where Rik is house and petting sitting for our friends. He met me at the station and, as we were driving to the house we noticed the gorgeous sunset. So we stopped by the river to take some photos.

Most gulls don’t bother to learn more than the simplest facts of flight, how to get from shore to food and back again. For most gulls, it is not flying that matters, but eating.
Firstly, I want to say THANK YOU to everyone who participated.
Secondly, I'm very very sorry it has taken me SO long to put this video together and upload it.
Thirdly, feel free to tag yourselves in the video :)
The Eden Project is a visitor attraction in Cornwall, England. Inside the two biomes are plants that are collected from many diverse climates and environments. The project is located in a reclaimed Kaolinite pit, located 2 km (1.2 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 km (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall.
The complex is dominated by two huge enclosures consisting of adjoining omes that house thousands of plant species, and each enclosure emulates a natural biome. The biomes consist of hundreds of hexagonal and pentagonal, inflated, plastic cells supported by steel frames. The largest of the two biomes simulates a Rainforest environment and the second, a Mediterranean environment. The attraction also has an outside botanical garden which is home to many plants and wildlife native to Cornwall and the UK in general; it also has many plants that provide an important and interesting backstory, for example, those with a prehistoric heritage.

Yesterday I started a project 365. I feel like I can really use some kind of a challenge and inspiration. And what a challenge it is! A year long comittment, oh my. I know it's not going to be easy all the time, but I haven't been this excited about anything in a long time, so I want to give it a good try!
I put together a decent collection of inspirative and essential photography books, gathered my gear and made a blog about it. Now, the rest should be a piece of cake:).
In all seriousness, fingers crossed and good luck to all of the people out there who decided to start (or keep on doing) this project as well. It's going to be one rewarding year!
I came across some photos of a project from last year. I was asked to put together the parts for a model of Poole Bus Station for someone to build. (Not really my sort of thing at all)
I duly designed, printed and dispatched it. To keep the costs reasonable I only actually built a trial of a small part of it - these are the photos, which several months on don't look too bad at all!
The whole model comes out at over four feet long (!!!), and takes an amazing amount of card, but if anyone fancies a crazy challenge then let me know.

Not much inspiration for today, but it was such a nice evening, and so I had dinner outside. Corns with it.
I guess, colored corn, maybe it went bad with the lack of inspiration.. and the grain indeed..

Wow - old school!
It seems that Laura is off on a bit of a jolly with work. Seemingly it's in the Lake District - strange how these things are never in Croydon. ;)
Anyhow, she's in one of those frustrating situations where she has to pay it up front to be subsequently reimbursed a thousand years later by work.
This required a cheque, and having a modern bank account she doesn't have a cheque book. This means that I've blown the dust off my cheque book - printed in 2003 - to do the honours. I'll get through them all in the end! :)
Every year I do a Project 52, one photo a week for the whole year. This is a showcase of this years, with the themes given on my photography group
This was done for an English 201 final project, I made with both 40k and primarily my Vampire Counts for fantasy in mind.
The Eastern Hellbender Juvenile Habitat Restoration project is funded through the State Wildlife Grant Program to assess survival in juveniles receiving an enriched captive environment and enriched juvenile habitat in the Blue River, IN. This research project is with the Indiana DNR and the Purdue Aquaculture Research Lab at Purdue University. In addition, 167 juvenile hellbenders will continue to be reared at the Purdue aquaculture facility and be released in 2017 as part of the reintroduction program.
The overarching goals of this research are to assess the historical eastern hellbender habitats for potential reintroductions and reintroduce captive reared juveniles into a former portion of their native range. The specific goals of the project include conducting eDNA screening, habitat suitability assessments, and estimating post-release survival using radio-telemetry. Ultimately, the results of this research could influence management decisions to repatriate eastern hellbenders throughout portions of its former range within Indiana and prevent extirpation.

i decorated the cover first, rtaher than last as had been the original plan. since i had a title bestowed upon me anyway, it seemed like a good idea. Saving the world usually has something to do with trees, or summaan or nuffaan...yeh, but no, but yeh...

[edit] Early life
Born as Princess Maud of Wales at Marlborough House, London as the daughter of The Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII), the eldest son of Queen Victoria and heir apparent to the British throne. Her mother was the then Princess of Wales, Princess Alexandra of Denmark.
Princess Maud was christened at Marlborough House by John Jackson, Bishop of London, on 24 December 1869. Her godparents were the King of Sweden and Norway; Prince Leopold, Duke of Albany; the Landgrave of Hesse; Prince Victor of Hohenlohe-Langenburg; Adelaide, the Duchess of Nassau; Marie, the Princess of Leiningen; Grand Duchess Marie Feodorovna (later empress); Crown Princess Louise of Denmark; and Cecilia, the Duchess of Inverness.
She was a high-spirited child, a quality that earned her the nickname Harry. Princess Maud of Wales took part in almost all the annual visits to the Princess of Wales's family in Denmark and later accompanied her mother and her sisters on cruises to Norway and the Mediterranean. She, along with her sisters Princess Victoria and Princess Louise, received the Imperial Order of the Crown of India from Queen Victoria on 6 August 1887. Like her sisters, Princess Maud also held the First Class of the Royal Order of Victoria and Albert and a Dame Grand Cross of the Order of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem.
[edit] Marriage
On 22 July 1896, Princess Maud married her first cousin, Prince Carl of Denmark, in the private chapel at Buckingham Palace. Prince Carl was the second son of Crown Prince Frederick of Denmark, Queen Alexandra's elder brother, and Princess Louise of Sweden. The bride's father, the Prince of Wales, gave her Appleton House on the Sandringham Estate, as a country residence for her frequent visits to England. It was there that the couple's only child, Prince Alexander, was born on July 2, 1903.
Prince Carl was an officer in the Danish navy and he and his family lived mainly in Denmark until 1905. In June of that year, the Norwegian parliament, Storting, dissolved Norway's one hundred year-old union with Sweden and voted to offer the throne to Prince Carl. Following a plebiscite in November, Prince Carl accepted the Norwegian throne, taking the name of Haakon VII, while his young son took the name of Olav. King Haakon and Queen Maud were crowned at the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim on June 22, 1906, the last coronation of a Scandinavian monarch.
[edit] Royal life
Queen Maud never lost her love of Britain, but she quickly adapted to her new country and duties as a queen consort. She supported charitable causes, particularly those associated with children and animals, and gave encouragement to musicians and artists. She learned to ski and arranged for an English garden at Kongsseteren, the Royal lodge overlooking the nation's capital Oslo. Queen Maud's last public appearance in Britain was the coronation of her great nephew, King George VI, in May 1937. She sat in the royal box at Westminster Abbey next to her sister-in-law Queen Mary and her niece the Princess Royal, Countess of Harewood.
Maud also acquired a reputation for dressing with fashionable chic. An exhibition of numerous items from her elegant wardrobe was held at the Victoria and Albert Museum in 2005.
[edit] Later life
Maud died of heart failure in London on November 20, 1938, only days before her 69th birthday, three days after an operation. Her body was returned to Norway on board the HMS Royal Oak, the flagship of Second Battle Squadron of the Royal Navy's Home Fleet. Queen Maud was buried in the royal mausoleum at the Castle of Akershus.
