The Colosseum, Rome
Well there can’t be many more iconic and instantly recognisable structures in the world than the Colosseum in Rome.
Given how iconic it is there was no way I was not going to shoot it. Now one of my locations was covered by Daniel Burton recently www.flickr.com/photos/92169786@N06/54403371597/in/datepos... I did go there before this shot but I’ll save my take on it for another time. Having seen one or two compositions on Flickr I decided to do some research online before going to Rome to see if any other compositions presented themselves. Now, for me, this was pretty hard going as the vast majority of what I could see was all geared towards the ‘Insta-selfie’ crowd (thanks to Dom Haughton for that term). To me, anything on the Instaselfie hit-list is like a ‘No Entry’ sign. All full of people posing with mega-crowds of tourists in the background also taking selfies and eating gelatos. However, at the point I did come across a few locations that I felt had potential. Unfortunately some were not feasible due to a multitude of maintenance works going on but I got lucky here. It was just a case of waiting as I had a strong feeling the early sun might catch one side of the Colosseum. I had to be a little patient as it took a few mins for the sunlight to strike the top of the stone. Luckily it still had that soft orange tone but as the sun rose and the light travelled down the structure it soon lost that colour. I think this shot is a fair compromise between colour and amount of the Colosseum hatched in light.
According to Wikipedia the Colosseum is not only the largest standing amphitheatre in the world but also the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built. Construction began under the Emperor Vespasian in AD 72 and was completed in AD 80 under his successor and heir, Titus. Further modifications were made during the reign of Domitian (AD 81-96).
The Colosseum is built of travertine limestone, volcanic rock, and brick-faced concrete. It could hold an estimated 50,000 to 80,000 spectators at various points in its history, having an average audience of some 65,000. As is well known, it was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles including animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, dramas based on Roman mythology, and briefly mock sea battles! It ceased to be used for entertainment in the early medieval era. It was later reused for such purposes as housing, workshops, quarters for a religious order, a fortress, a quarry, and a Christian shrine.
Although substantially ruined by earthquakes and stone robbers, the Colosseum is still a renowned symbol of Imperial Rome and was listed as one of the New 7 Wonders of the World - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_7_Wonders_of_the_World

107-year-old locomotive used from 1917 through the 1950s to transport coal from the mine to the harbor, Ny-Ålesund, Svalbard, Norway with Amundsen-Ellsworth-Airship tower in background.
The front half of this thing has been sitting around since sometime last summer and I've used quarantine to finish it off. I think the overall quality drops off the farther back on the ship you go, but overall I'm very happy with it!

One of Britain's preeminent institutes for biomedical research the Francis Crick institute sits right next door to London St Pancras station. It's a fascinating building in it's design but it's the people inside that do the good work with their research into many of the diseases that plague us.

Having wasted most of my day on Flickr-y things like slimming down my sets, adding new sets ready for the new year, and other general housekeeping, I decided I needed to keep Ginger company, and ended up sitting on the sofa researching whisky (in the glass) and double decker buses (on the Internet) while Ginger researched wedding dresses, whisky and took her own picture for the day.
The peace was only broken when I exclaimed "Well bugger me!" upon realising I'd accidentally managed to bag a FUTAB as well. For some reason Ginger found this statement amusing.

I built mine more around scientific sample retrieval, and things like that. I really enjoyed working with this frame, might experiment with it some more in the future!
The minifigure was somewhat inspired by the guys seen in the gameplay trailer for Death Stranding. Really looking forward to when I can play that game, not sure when that’ll be though
Finished all my finals yesterday, so a new trimester starts next week. not sure if it will free up time to post or make it harder, but hopefully you guys will be seeing more of me.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
Build for my article on New Elementary all about the latest wave of parts added to Pick a Brick this month.
I only had one of each seed part to play with so I went for an asymmetric vehicle using the transparent curved corner panel (5925). It turned out to be a bit of a slog to complete but I got there in the end - thanks to some Lime green frying pans of all things.
Concordia research station in Antarctica is a place of extremes. In winter no sunlight is seen for four months and the typical crew of twelve live in complete isolation.
ESA sponsors a research medical doctor each year to study the effects of living in isolation. The extreme cold, isolation, sensory deprivation and remoteness make living in Concordia similar to living on another planet.

This drone photo, taken as a long-exposure shot over 10 years ago, holds a very special meaning for me. It evokes memories and tells stories—not only about Karlsruhe but also about my personal journey as a photographer. With the advancements in image processing over the past decade, I felt it was time to give this photo a fresh and modern look without losing its original magic.
The photo showcases Karlsruhe in all its glory: the majestic palace at its center, perfectly embodying the city’s history and its fan-shaped layout. It bridges the past and the present. Remarkably, this photo remains unique to this day—no one has created a comparable long-exposure drone shot of this iconic scene.
The creation of this image holds a symbolic significance for me. As a young boy, I learned in school about Karlsruhe’s history and its unique city design. Years later, almost unconsciously, I transformed that story into this photograph.
Beyond its aesthetic beauty, the photo also highlights significant landmarks of German democracy and science. On the right, nestled in greenery, you can see the Federal Constitutional Court (Bundesverfassungsgericht), Germany’s highest court and a pillar of its legal system. On the left is the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), one of Germany’s leading institutions for science and research. In the center stands the Regional Administrative Office (Regierungspräsidium), surrounded by numerous other government buildings.
This photo is not just a view of Karlsruhe; it is a tribute to the city’s history, architecture, and importance.
Looking for a room in this idea
for a photo shoot in Brussels, someone got an idea?
Thank you very much.

FALKOR (IMO: 7928677) is a Research/Survey Vessel that was built in 1981 (40 years ago) and is sailing under the flag of Cayman Is.
It’s carrying capacity is 555 t DWT and her current draught is reported to be 5.5 meters. Her length overall (LOA) is 82.9 meters and her width is 13.02 meters. RV Falkor is an oceanographic research vessel operated by the Schmidt Ocean Institute.
I really wanted this build to feel very alien. The dark orange ground with the strange alien creatures slowly infecting the land and everything around it. The vibrant green river flowing between the legs of the elevated research station, and some strange yet familiar looking plant life.
The base of this build is 2m x 1.2m and the tower sits at about 1.3m high. This is definitely the tallest build I have ever done and definitely one of my largest. So big that i couldn’t fit it all infringe of my backdrop… luckily I was talking to a fellow exhibitor called Jacqui that offered to help with photoshopping the background to white. I think she did an amazing job with it and I truly appreciate the help, the build simply wouldn’t of looked as nice.
I really enjoyed figuring out the best ways to make all the curves and experimenting with different ways to get the toxic green of the river.
I really wanted to experiment with some lighting and a couple motorised features for this build. I wanted to limit myself to official lego products mainly because I am a lego purist and I really enjoy the challenge that the official lego electronics provide. I used one M motor for the mechanism for the black alien creatures in the ground to make them look like they were breathing, 10 lego power functions LEDs, 1 classic lego LED unit for the flashing lights on the cargo ship and 7 lego power functions extension cables. All of this powered by 1 power functions battery unit. I had a lot of fun trying to hide all these components and yet still be easy to access like the hidden button for the power and a hidden drawer for easy access to the batteries.
