Weird enough some people think they can get respect by using violence.. I'm glad i never tried that so I got my respect by being myself and have faith in humanity.. With this (old and fake) gun I tried to say, how old (gun) or young (hand) you are doesn't matter, but show respect to eachother!!
At the sametime, when you use product with respect it will last longer.. The gun is old, (rust and stuff) but it still works! (Smoke)..

Arup Associates concept for the form of the bridge was driven by a desire to have a simple and iconic form that respected the existing master plan for the Quay and ensured that full advantage was taken of the prominent location of the bridge within the city. Arup Associates had to achieve a considerable change in level from the Williams Quay to the western end of the bridge to clear the navigation channel required for ferries.
The curved form of the bridge deck was the solution that allowed Arup Associates to create the extended ramps required to clear the navigation channel and achieve entry points to the bridge that were critical for legible access and integration with the master plan. Having achieved these geometric challenges, Arup Associates now had to engineer a solution. Arup Associates target was to compliment the S form of the bridge deck with arch forms that would reinforce the experience of movement through the structure and across the bridge.
The bridge deck is constantly changing in height and always curving in plan – the arches needed to enhance this experience. Arup Associates worked closely from the outset with engineers using analysis software to show how efficiencies could be made in arch geometry relative to the bridge deck geometry. Arup Associates wanted the drama of the leaning arches, we also wanted the arches to optimized in their cross sectional form to the structural work they are doing. Arup Associates also worked closely with our wind engineers to ensure that vibration and vortex shedding issues were overcome. Arup Associates wanted transparency to the balustrades, yet some level of solidity was initially required to overcome wind impacts which could generate vibrations within the bridge structure.
Another area of design which defined the form of the arches was the lighting concept. Arup Associates wanted the illumination of the arches to be visible from both sides – from the city and from across the river. To achieve this Arup Associates generated a 5 sided cross section, so that at the apex of the arch two faces are visible in elevation and can be illuminated from a single line of uplighters to the edge of the deck. The result is everything Arup Associates sort to achieve in terms of simple and pure structural forms, complimented by a rationalised modular architecture to the fascia finishes, balustrading and timber decking. This was only possible through the use of shared modelling, with both architects and engineers using Rhino + Grasshopper scripts to control the geometry definition – scripts that were shared on a daily basis to ensure that structural analysis kept pace with architectural geometry

Flores del almendro ( Prunus dulcus), que se convierte en preludio de la llegada de la Primavera, acompañada de algunas curiosidades con respecto a esta flor:
ALMENDRO
Árbol de hermosas flores, significado de la flor del almendro es "el despertar" o "estar despierto". Es más, la palabra almendra tiene su origen en el idioma hebreo y significa literalmente "el que despierta"… Sus flores blancas o débilmente rosadas aparecen ya en enero, mucho antes que las flores de otros árboles.
Fuente Wikipedia
Los poetas árabes se inspiran, con frecuencia, en la naturaleza y dado que en muchas de sus poesías predomina el sensualismo, suelen cantar todo aquello que perciben a través de los sentidos: los sonidos, los olores y las observaciones visuales; por ello los jardines y las plantas son, en muchos casos, motivo de inspiración para sus poemas; la naturaleza es para ellos un libro en el que leen hace millares de años, lo que les permite plasmar imágenes llenas de lirismo en las que comparten sus impresiones y evocan sus más íntimos sentimientos; Ebn Teinim cantó así a la flor del almendro (alláuz).
“Antes que las demás flores llegas tú para reinar sobre todas ellas. Y con verdad que eres de venturoso presagio, pues en tu cándida hermosura aparece la primera sonrisa del mundo y de la primavera.”

Según fuentes Bíblicas el almendro aparece en los siguientes pasajes o acontecimientos:
Almendro, almendra
(heb. shâqêd, "quien despierta", "vigilante" [del verbo shâqad, "estar despierto", "velar"]; y lûz). Árbol de hermosas flores, miembro de la familia del duraznero. Sus flores blancas o débilmente rosadas aparecen ya en enero, mucho antes que las flores de otros árboles. Como anticipo de la primavera, se lo llegó a conocer como el árbol que "despierta". Alcanza una altura de 3 a 5 m, y se lo valora por su aceite delicado. Las hojas, que aparecen algo más tarde que las flores, son largas y lanceoladas, con bordes aserrados y extremo agudo. Su conocida semilla está encerrada en una cáscara dura, cubierta por una piel gruesa y aterciopelada. Aunque por su forma y sus flores el árbol se parece a los durazneros, la fruta no tiene la pulpa carnosa de los duraznos Posiblemente en los tiempos patriarcales no se conocía en Egipto, porque Jacob envió almendras como regalo (Gn. 43:11). Dios instruyó a Moisés que hiciera el candelero de 7 brazos con la forma de ramas de almendro con sus flores (Ex. 25:33, 34; 37:19, 20). La vara de Aarón brotó, floreció y produjo almendras maduras (Nm. 17: 2, 3, 8). Se cree que el "almendro" de Ec. 12:5 representa la cabeza canosa de un patriarca, porque las flores, vistas a la distancia, tienen el aspecto blanco de la nieve. El Señor usó este árbol como símbolo de su cuidado vigilante sobre su palabra en la primera visión de Jeremías (1:11, 12). En Gn. 30:37, la RVR traduce lûz por "avellano", pero esta traducción no tiene apoyo. Véase Luz. Bib.: PB 35-38. .

321 is officially off the list. I have had this shot in back up for a while and then looked at it recently and thought that especially as I will never get it again then I am worth posting this as well. So, here we see on a rather bleak Thursday afternoon Lothian 321 seen on a very usual service 19 to Granton.

The Kiss Goodbye to Multiple Sclerosis campaign closes out on the theme - MS Awareness. I have been humbled by this experience and the ways in which I have been supported to raise awareness about this disease.
With my deepest gratitude, I pay my respects to:
each of you that has followed this campaign - your words of encouragement, sharing your deeply personal stories and the way in which you have supported my pledge through your views, comments and faves. With one day of viewing left, my pledge is $759.60. I will announce the final result tomorrow at the end of the international day for 31 May 2013.
each of you that helped to raise awareness through the pledge to kiss goodbye group. So many beautiful pictures, so much creativity! Based on a count yesterday afternoon, the 382 photos there have received over 44 thousand views. Can we make it 400 photos by the end of the day? In some countries around the world, the group even appeared on the front page of yahoo. Raising awareness can be done through small individual actions - if there was ever a reason to believe that change can be made though the collective power of an individual's small action then this is one example.
to those of you who extended your generosity by making a donation to my fund raising page. Thank you does not cover my appreciation enough.
to Marty and M8 who are my pillars of support in sickness and in health.
and finally I pay my respects to my disease that has taught me so much about life. Multiple sclerosis has given me such an awareness about what is important for this day, and in this moment - and for those reasons, I consider myself truly blessed.

I found an unwelcome winter guest on the window sill in my apartment today but chose to shot some very basic macros before her eviction. I spent quite a lot of time trying to get a good ID on this yellowjacket and finally determined that the three black facial spots (not visible in this image) and the wide, black band on the thorax made this a western yellowjacket instead of an eastern yellowjacket. The spots between bands on the thorax are confirmation that this is a queen, for the males and the sterile female workers in a colony do not have these spots (bands only). Most of the colony would have died off long ago (early autumn) anyway, leaving this queen to overwinter in a protected place until spring when she begins building a new nest and laying the eggs she carries all winter. It's minus 9F (minus 23C) today and the window sill is rather chilly, so I felt a wee bit safer shooting images of this flying stinger. I've a healthy respect for snakes and spider, etc. and do not mind shooting images of either but anything aggressive like yellowjackets and wasps tend to give me chills... lol They are fascinating but from a distance!
I still have the OM 90mm f/3.5 macro Pro lens on my list to obtain but, until then, I satisfied myself with using my 12-40mm and focus stacking in-body, using a little Joby light and diffusor for lighting. (1-4-2025)
Estaba cayendo una ligera lluvia en la zona, dándole un aspecto brillante a las plantas y árboles del lugar que me llamó la atención. Cuando encontré entre medias este conjunto de Rocas me gustó el contraste que tenía con respecto a los árboles, así que busqué una composición que me agradara y disparé.

I hope everyone has a great week ahead. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

morning alms in Luang Prabang, historic center of what is now Laos, a UNESCO World Heritage site for it's architectural, artistic and cultural heritage. I visited as part of my ongoing journey 'along the Mekong'; in stages; this section travelling by slow boat downriver to see the golden city during the Buddhist new year in April 2009.
New year is the most important national holiday in many SE Asian countries and an important event in the Buddhist calendar. It is a time of transformation or change; celebrated with paying respect to elders, elaborate merit making and cleansing rituals, that in recent times have developed to include public water fights. Due to Covid restrictions the water fights cannot take place for a 2nd year running now, at least in Thailand. Hope we can experience this safely again soon.
Luang Prabang is famous for its many Buddhist temples and monasteries. Every morning just after sunrise hundreds of monks walk the streets to collect alms; walking barefoot, in quiet meditation, with their baskets ready to receive sticky rice, their staple of life. Locals kneel along the way donating food, typically in their best attire and colourful shirts bought and worn especially for new year. An unforgettable sight in the beautiful, historic center of this small, sleepy laid-back town and a truly enchanting experience.
Buddhist new year is the time when many young boys and men are ordained and begin an important chapter in their life. At least for a period of 3 months, or longer, at their free choosing. Joining the monkhood is highly respected and makes merit for the whole family. Young men learn the fundamenal teachings of Buddhism and the basic vows, and learn self control. Most importantly, for many often poor families from the countryside it means their sons will receive education far superior to that available via alternative options. In addition, it also means one less mouth to feed.
For many novices this is the first time to practice the strange new daily routines of being a monk, and morning alms and being fed (once a day) is new for them, just as the required distance to women (including their mothers) and not touching them directly.

At the entrance to Soon Tien Kong Chinese temple, South Point, Christmas Island.
This site is very close to a major phosphate mine. In the early days with little environmental control, production was of a scale sufficient to support transport of the extracted ore to Flying Fish Cove by train, where it was transferred to ships for export. The operation relied heavily on Chinese labourers, who built many temples around the island.
