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.

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
Inspired by the idea of a luxury modern hotel in a restored farmhouse. My RL to SL - if you know, you know :) and thanks to Bambi for the #challenge

Toronto Railway Company 1326
Fleet Number: 1326 Built: 1910
System: Toronto Railway Company Retired: 1951
Builder: Toronto Railway Company Acquired: 1954
Type: SE-DT Streetcar Status: Restored
The last wood streetcar retired by the TTC and first artifact in our collection.
The Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge includes estuaries restored when miles of dikes were removed from the Nisqually River Delta as well as wetlands of the Nisqually River.
This photo shows female students of the Kherson Mechanical Engineering College.
There were only four girls and thirty boys in their group, and they were studying to become electrical technicians.
One of the students was my grandmother Galina (second from the left). The names of the other girls (from left to right): Lidiya (Lida), Valentina (Valya), and Alla. The photo was taken around 1955.
My grandmother chose such an unusual profession for a woman at that time after watching a Soviet propaganda film in a movie theater, which portrayed the cheerful and fulfilling lives of electricians working at a large factory.
After graduating, she went on to work at such a large mechanical engineering plant and stayed there until her retirement.
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.

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.

The restored Tolman / Loveland house is one of my favorites in the agricultural ghost town of Chesterfield, Idaho. The snow drifts against the fence made a great place for a rabbit to leave tracks around the corner of the property. This was taken in 2002 and scanned from a slide.
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.
One of the former warehouses along the west side waterfront, being redeveloped. Beautifully restored and open to the public soon.
The door seen in the photo, partially restored, was part of a defensive system called "bend entrance" that forced the invaders to turn 90º to lose all speed and be more easily attacked from the wall with thrown weapons or rocks.
In the background you can see the Hermitage of the Virgen de la Peña, from the 16th century, classified as late Gothic.
I have deleted, using Photoshop ("Remove Tool") a horrible graffiti painted by that type of terrorists who do not even respect historical monuments.
Also called "Cornel Castle", in reference to one of its several owners, the castle is of Muslim origin, built around the 10th century AD.
Being then located in a border area between the Muslim and Christian (Aragonese) kingdoms, it was conquered and reconquered several times until it finally passed to the crown of the kingdom of Aragon around the year 1141.
The king of Aragon gave the castle successively to several nobles and as it lost its strategic importance, as the reconquest advanced towards the south of Spain, its ruin began.
The current state is deeply ruinous, given the low quality of the construction materials and that, like many other castles in Spain, they have been used as "virtual quarries" to construct other buildings.
Some urgent restoration work has been carried out on walls, towers and two cisterns that stored water in the event of a siege.
PUERTA PRINCIPAL DEL CASTILLO DE ALFAJARIN, ZARAGOZA, ESPAÑA, 2023
La puerta que se ve en la foto, parcialmente restaurada, formaba parte de un sistema defensivo llamado de "entrada en recodo" que obligaba a los invasores a girar 90º para perder toda la velocidad y ser más facilmente agredidos desde la muralla con armas arrojadizas o rocas.
Al fondo se observa la Ermita de la Virgen de la Peña, del siglo XVI, clasificada en el gótico tardío.
He borrado, usando Photoshop ("Remove Tool") un horrible graffiti pintado por esa especie de terroristas que no respetan ni los monumentos históricos.
El también llamado "Castillo de los Cornel", en referencia a uno de sus varios propietarios, el castillo es de origen musulmán, construido hacia el siglo X de nuestra era.
Al estar situado entonces una zona fronteriza entre los reinos musulmán y cristiano (aragonés) fue conquistado y reconquistado varias veces hasta que pasó finalmente a la corona del reino de Aragón hacia el año 1141.
El rey de Aragón cedió el castillo sucesivamente a varios nobles y al ir perdiendo su importancia estratégica, a medida que la reconquista avanzaba hacia el sur de España, comenzó su ruina.
El estado actual es profundamente ruinoso, dada la baja calidad de los materiales de construcción y que, al igual que muchos otros castillos en España, se han utilizado como "canteras virtuales" para construir otros edificios.
Se han practicado algunos trabajos de restauración urgentes sobre muros, torres y dos algibes que acumulaban agua en caso de asedio.
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).
This 1930s racing aircraft has crashed and been rebuilt, modified and then restored several times, so it's hard to say how original it really is. It was once owned by the great pilot, Alex Henshaw, and is today regularly flown by The Shuttleworth Collection. Another aircraft which you'd imagine doesn't have a great forward view for the pilot!
