As I photographed this abandoned restored church I thought what a beautiful way to think about Good Friday and Easter and the true meaning.....we can get restored, there no distance in prayer. Happy Easter my Flickr friends.
A slide I was given which was fairly easy to restore, despite the state of the cardboard mount.
Written in very faded ink I could read the word 'Puerto' which I think is Spanish for seaport, so it doesn't really narrow down where this was or what this interesting scene is. I'd guess the slide was about 20 years old at least.

The first columns of history.
The forty pillars of the corridor are 'wrapped columns', designed to look like stems of palm trees or papyrus. The walls have been restored, but the ceiling is made of modern concrete. After the entrance, there is a large and false door of Ka (present spirit), which stands ajar - notice the hinge close to the ground. There were fourteen such doors in the complex, made of wood in other ages, but now, for the first time, it is carved in stone and painted to look like wood. For them, Pharaoh's Ka could move when he wanted to.

This very impressive looking tall ship was at the Mystic Seaport's Museum main drydock where it was going to spend the next several months being restored to it's former glory. The ship was a former merchant ship which did have some small cannons that were more defensive in nature according to museum's staff members that was there to answer questions.
One of the vintage army planes at the Warbirds over Whiteside air show at the Whiteside Co. Airport in Rock Falls,IL. yesterday.Though smaller than previous years,the planes in attendance showed some great history from World War II aviation...
The Greyhound station was built in 1938, and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993 for its architectural significance. It was restored in 2018 and now used as a venue
This impeccably restored and maintained 1936 Ford half ton pickup was photographed in Connecticut. But, it was decided that it warranted a much more suitable background, and out in a country area where it would be more at home, on, or near a ranch maybe? So, we fired up old Photoshop, packed a lunch, and took a digital ride to somewhere outside of Bozeman Montana where it will continue to reside on my computer until "the cows come home." Amazingly, we got some pretty impressive fuel mileage out of this flathead V8 powered beauty. We averaged an impressive 18.6mpg on our near 2000 mile digital trip, and like all Ford flatheads it did overheat on us twice and finally we were forced to stop along the way to replace a head gasket. But now, she's at home, and right where she belongs!

Thanks for views, comments and views :)
I made this for my Mama when she was battling cancer. Through it all her faith and love for the Lord never wavered. She never feared death. When she knew it was time, she said she was ready to go be with Jesus. She called it her graduation.

Come on. Get a move on, chop, chop.
Dodging the cloud shadow lingering to the north of Appleby, D8096 and D8107 race past Appleby North signalbox and through the lovingly restored Appleby station with 1Z32, the Seven Counties Rambler.
1Z32, 11.46 Carlisle to Preston.
The stations on this line are a credit to all the organisations involved in their upkeep. Appleby North signalbox has been refurbished in recent years and looks spotless. Together with its associated signals, it makes a really nice period photo.

There dwelt a miller, hale and bold,
Beside the river Dee;
He worked and sang from morn till night -
No lark more blithe than he;
And this the burden of his song
Forever used to be:
“I envy nobody – no, not I -
And nobody envies me!”
“Thou’rt wrong, my friend,” said good King Hal,
“As wrong as wrong can be;
For could my heart be light as thine,
I’d gladly change with thee.
And tell me now, what makes thee sing,
With voice so loud and free,
While I am sad, though I am king,
Beside the river Dee?””
The miller smiled and doffed his cap,
“I earn my bread,” quoth he;
“I love my wife, I love my friend,
I love my children three;
I owe no penny I can not pay,
I thank the river Dee,
That turns the mill that grinds the corn
That feeds my babes and me.”
“Good friend,” said Hall, and sighed the while,
“Farewell, and happy be;
But say no more, if thou’dst be true,
That no one envies thee;
Thy mealy cap is worth my crown,
Thy mill my kingdom’s fee;
Such men as thou are England’s boast,
O miller of the Dee!

Van der Pekbuurt (neighbourhood).
During the entire renovation of this neighbourhood, the historic appearance of the outside of the houses has been restored. The new wooden doors, windows and frames have the original colours from the 1920s: ocher yellow, dark green and red brown.
De Van der Pekbuurt is gebouwd tussen 1918 en 1926 en is daarmee een van de eerste tuindorpen van Amsterdam. Architect Jan Ernst van der Pek ontwierp de stedenbouwkundige en architectonische opzet in 1916. Rode bakstenen muren, geglazuurde gele bakstenen banden en portieken die uit de gevels springen kenmerkten het straatbeeld. De wijk geldt als beschermd stadsgezicht.
De woonblokken hadden door de vele aanpassingen in de loop der tijd hun oorspronkelijke charme verloren. Door kunststof kozijnen en verdwenen originele details zoals dakkapelletjes, tuinmuren en voordeuren hadden de blokken een armoedige uitstraling gekregen. Ook de originele kleuren waren verdwenen.
Binnen de gehele renovatie van de wijk is aan de buitenzijde de historische uitstraling van de woningen van de Van der Pekbuurt teruggebracht. Zo hebben de nieuwe houten deuren en kozijnen de oorspronkelijke kleuren uit de jaren 1920: okergeel, donkergroen en roodbruin (architectenweb.nl).
close to a well visited museum. If only all Istanbul houses were maintained like these......might be a bit boring though :)
This 1956 Studebaker Hawk hood, came with a 170hp V8 engine. It could be upgraded to 180hp with the 4 barrel addition. The very talented restoration mechanic named Robert, told me of his passion to work on such vehicles. This piece of perfection sat idol for one year in a garage as it went through its beauty treatment.
Considering the Shuswap Car Show was held at an outdoor museum, it seemed appropriate to add a local flavour. So, I combined the rare scoop with the reflection of an old and also restored wooden building.
Urban Light (2008) is a large-scale assemblage sculpture by Chris Burden located at the Wilshire Boulevard entrance to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The 2008 installation consists of restored street lamps from the 1920s and 1930s. Urban Light is composed of 202 street lamps arranged in a neat grid. The lamps mostly came from the streets of Southern California, including Hollywood, Glendale, and Anaheim, with some from Portland, Oregon. Since its 2008 installation, Urban Light has become an extremely popular attraction, and it has become the most visited, photographed and well-known public artwork in Southern California.
The Massachusetts Bay Railroad Enthusiasts organized a special trip on the Conway Scenic Railroad this weekend, utilizing the 470 Club's two beautifully restored Boston and Maine F7A's. The trip was dubbed "Covered Wagons in The Snow", and it did not disappoint.
The train is seen approaching Cobb Farm Road where they would stop and let passengers de-board for a couple of photo run-by's. Glad I got a shot before the entire train got off and crowded the area for the run by's. I promptly got in the car and carried on, avoiding the craziness.

Sporting a "restored" nose logo, BNSF 9653 swings into the curve at Valmont with an empty coal train bound for Wyoming. While its neat to see a BN logo on the nose of an executive mac, this one definitely looks better from a distance.
"De Berk" is a flour mill in Barger-Compascuum in Drenthe. The mill comes from the German Drantum (Kreis Cloppenburg) and was purchased in the eighties by miller Hendrik Bökkers from Olst, who wanted to build it in the east of the country to replace another mill. This plan did not go ahead and the mill was eventually sold on to Stichting Veenpark 't Aole Compas, which placed it in the Veenpark as a rotating mill. De Berk was restored in 2006, but since 2009 the mill has not been able to turn due to the poor condition of the tail work. The mill is a municipal monument. (source: wikipedia)
