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.

Dome of the Central Market
The Central Market is one of the busiest places in the city of Valencia. Hundreds of people enter every day.
Two domes rise majestically above the Market, which no customer can fail to notice, the aforementioned Cotorra and the Fish dome, which crowns the recently restored fishmonger's department, which overflows with remarkably fresh and tasty maritime products.

Doug Harrop Photography • August 5, 1986
Mr. Harrop stepped outside the cab of his GP9 to capture this view of a ballast train working in tandem with his rip rap "rock train" on the Strongknob fill, 52 miles west of Ogden, Utah.
A series of passing storms culminating on June 14th completely washed away a total of 11 miles of right of way in the Great Salt Lake. Crews working 24 hours a day, seven days a week reopened the route to through trains on August 22, 1986. Heroic by any measure.
After being moved to a new location towards the end of last year, venerable boxcab CN 6710 has now been repainted and restored. CN 6710 was built by General Electric and delivered to the Canadian Northern as CNoR 600 in 1919. It was used on the electrified Deux-Montagnes line until being retired in 1995.

Holy Island, or Lindisfarne as it's also known, is one of the most beautiful places anywhere in the world and simply oozes history wherever you wander. It's importance to Christianity cannot be understated with its 7th century monastery serving as a home to St Cuthbert and also drawing the first significant Viking attack on Western Europe in 793. This pano (processed in glorious HDR once again!) depicts the much more modern Lindifarne Castle which was built in the 16th century before being altered and restored in 1901. More photos to follow!

Known as the Nelly Thomas Home, it was built in about 1780, the oldest portion being a log structure. Board and batten was added in the mid-19th century. It was restored starting in 2001.

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.
This is 'on my doorstep' here in Norwich, and it is something of a hidden gem, but actually I'm thankful for it's (usual) peace and tranquility.

Where, and when, my mind becomes pure
away from the confusion
instigated by the 'pull' of society
I break with habit, and the 'norm'
taking refuge, mindfree, in my childhood hinterland
so often, life took me away from such roots
destroying memories and freedoms
in the name of profit, but for whom?
into corporate pockets real freedom was lost
now, unable to outpace most on foot
I steal away with all my memories refreshed
restoring time, replenishing home
all was within me,
just as all is around me.

Herons in the haze (i).
I deliberately left the haze of the fog which decreases the sharpness but restores the right atmosphere of the place at that given moment
Ho volutamente lasciato la foschia della nebbia che diminuisce la nitidezza ma restituisce l'atmosfera giusta del luogo in quel dato momento
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.
These partially restored structures stand in the most densely built-up part of Machu Picchu, which is believed to have had a population of less than 1000 people. The site dates from the 1400s, and was “re-discovered” in 1911 (local farmers were using the terraces even then).
Union Pacific's first diesel-electric switch engine pulls Deer Creek Scenic Railroad's "Santa Claus Express" train south of Heber City, Utah on Dec. 15, 1985. The beautifully restored NW2 was built by EMC as a demo unit in Oct. 1939 and purchased by UP in 1940.
In July 1966, it was retired and sold to the Stockton Terminal & Eastern in California. By June 1969, it found a new home on the Western Pacific as No. 607 and by May 1973, it was transferred to subsidiary road Sacramento Northern.
After the UP-WP merger of 1983, 607 was retired by UP (again) and donated to Utah's Deer Creek Scenic Railroad in May of 1984.
By February 1993, it was sold to the Nevada State Railroad Museum in Boulder City, where it operates today.
