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.
CEA Project Logistics have a proven track record in specialised transport, one of our areas of expertise is Helicopter Transportation having completed several projects previously for the Sikorsky group and their Seahawk SH-60. This experience was a key factor when a new client chose our specialised transport services for several Agusta Westland AW149 medium class helicopters.
The Royal Thai Navy have ordered 5 Aircraft all to be delivered in 2017, CEA were employed to carry out all unloading at Laem Chabang Port and transportation to the Utapao Navy Base for assembly, after assembly the helicopters would fly to their new base in Northern Thailand to replace the Bell UH-1H helicopter.
The helicopters arrived at Laem Chabang Port A-5 on the NYK vessel Oceanus Leader. Each helicopter was shipped on a mafi-trailer with a bespoke fabricated saddle for the rear landing gear. Laem Chabang Terminal Tractors removed the helicopters from the Oceanus Leader positioning them next to the CEA 50 Tonne mobile cranes. Each helicopter was lifted from the mafi-trailer by a specialised hook attached to the main rotor, the five shackles of the hook were fixed to the main rotor by five lifting slings. The helicopters were lowered on to awaiting Air Ride trailers each fitted with a saddle for the rear landing gear.
Wooden chocks were placed on the front landing gear and lashing applied. CEA further secured the cargo with more two more lashing slings connected to the rings on either side of the fuselages. Other aircraft accessories were also loaded and secured. After each helicopter was lashed and secured the convoy began the 70km journey to the Royal Thai Navy base at Utapao, Rayong province.
A CEA escort vehicle was used throughout this specialised transport project to ensure maximum safety on the route to Utapao. Upon arrival at Utapao, the CEA teams removed the lashing allowing the 50 Tonne mobile cranes to lift the helicopters from the trailers using the same method as before and placing them in their respective hangers. Project duration from start to finish was 7 hours.
I've just had an identity crisis and have updated my dolly blog and website to projectdollhouse.com (giving Les Jeunette a bit of a break)
:) Please drop by sometime !
My submission for the Utata Iron Photographer 132 project.
Required elements:
a mirror
a toy
cross-processing
Strobist Info:
SB-600 to right at 1/100 with diffuser cap to light up border of the mirror
SB-600 in mini-softbox to left at 1//32 to light up puppets.
I shot one shot with the white puppet, then a second shot focused on the black puppet's reflection and cloned the black puppet's reflection into the white puppet's mirror. I used two different cross-processing techniques in Nik Color Efex Pro 3.0. One was C04 and I don't remember what the other was. The cross-processing filters dropped the blacks too much in the black puppet's clothing. I should have it that area up more.
Today Albert got his feet wet.
After the disastrous shopping experience yesterday, Albert needed to get out the house. So he popped onto the train and went to the beach for his next adventure.
While on the train he was reading the Danbo Times and came across and advert for adventures under the sea. This got him thinking and as soon as the train arrived at the station, he was off to the local diving school to find a boat to get out there.
Once out on the ocean, he raced to the best diving spot around, and jumped straight in. But he discover that the water made his boxes all soggy, and he just floated. Albert was not going to come this far and not be able to go swimming. So he rubbed wax all over himself to make himself waterproof and then put several stones in his legs to help him sink.
This worked perfectly, he sank straight to the bottom on the sea, Albert was at one with the fish! But then he carried on sinking and ended up stuck in the sea weed at the bottom of the ocean due to the weight of the stones in his legs. Albert was trapped, how was he going to get out? Then the wax he rubbed on earlier came into play again. Due to its slippy nature, it helped Albert squeeze out of the weeds and remove the stones, so he could escape to the boat again. What an adventure!

This week's assignment was REALLY difficult for me!!! I tried panning these pelicans and that turned out pretty badly as well. I never realized how fast a pelican can fly!!!!! This is my third and last entry and I will be honest, I am glad!!! Right now panning and motion is a bit over my head with my skill level but hey I tried it!!
Shots from the collective billboard project I have started at the back of the Ink_d Gallery. This project is open to everyone. I have provided printed imagery of my designs, spray paint and markers for anyone to come and add there mark to this ever evolving exterior canvas. Get on down to the gallery and get your hands dirty....
Daily. 6th - 28th February. 2009.
Scan of a 9.5x12 print from a portrait project exploring identity. Taken on Ilford HP5 Plus, film processed by and print made by myself.
Scanned with my A4 scanner/printer so I lost some of the edges.
Took some great classes and learned soooooo much!
I took the fabric dye class by Stacy Mitchell 2 years ago and have used the fabric to make my purse labels. I just love her! She is a local artist with international connections. Her annual open house is April 18th. I plan to be there!!
Took some excellent knitting classes. Learned a bunch... good since I really know VERY little. I did the smallest knitting with beads and may make a beaded bracelet instead of the little purse that was the project. Helen, our instructor, has been knitting since she was a small girl.
The hand beading class was amazing... learned so much. I knew nothing before the class and know enough to start experimenting. June Colburn was an inspirational teacher.
Loved the felted bowl and the crochet flowers class instructors. Very helpful! They made the concepts easy to grasp. Both were from a local yarn shop..."The Whole Nine Yarns". Lovely yarns in their booth.... drool!
Something quite different... took a locker hook clutch class. Fascinating textures created with yarns and fabric strips. I now see a way to use my remnants in a beautiful creative way!!!
Textiles! Fibers! FUN!!! =)

Here is my home brew electronic keyer project going into its box. It uses a PIC12F675 micro-controller from Microchip. I wanted the challenge of writing the code in assembly language.
Mostly junk box parts, the case was an old intercom or something like that. The project worked out pretty well though someday I might go back and make some changes with the speed control. That is to say I was lazy and only used 8 bits of the 10 bit A/D. Also I recently noticed that there is probably an unused I/O line and I might add straight key functionality to it.
