This week's flowers: pink and white tulips although they kinda look red here...

A few fresh shots of the Food Stand Diners, mostly while I have fun experimenting with new lighting setups.

 

PS, they're trending pretty well on LEGO Ideas, but could use a few extra votes to get them over the line to 10,000. So, if you'd like to see them as a set, but haven't yet supported them, head to

I Stand Alone lyrics

 

Now I've told you this once before

You can't control me

If you try to take me down you're gonna break

Now I feel your hatred nothing that you're doing for me

I'm thinkin you outta make your own way

I stand alone

Inside

I stand alone

You're always hiding behind your so called goddess

So what you don't think that we can see your face

Resurrected back before the final fallen

I'll never rest until I can make my own way

I'm not afraid of fading

I stand alone

Feeling your sting down inside of me

I'm not dying for it

I stand alone

Everything that I believe is fading

I stand alone

Inside

I stand alone

And now its my time (now its my time)

It's my time to dream (my time to dream)

Dream of the sky (dream of the sky)

Make me believe that this place isn't plagued

By the poison in me

Help me decide if my fire will burn out

Before you can breathe

Breathe into me

I stand alone

Inside

I stand alone

Feeling your sting down inside of me

I'm not dying for it

I stand alone

Everything that I believe is fading

I stand alone

Inside

I stand alone

Inside

I stand alone

Inside

I stand alone

Inside

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durlston_Castle

  

Durlston Castle stands within Durlston Country Park, a 1.13 square-kilometre (280-acre) country park and nature reserve stretching along the coastline south of Swanage, on the Isle of Purbeck in Dorset.

  

History

  

John Mowlem[1] (1788-1868), a Swanage-born man, was a stonemason and builder. He was the founder of the quarrying and construction company Mowlem. He and his nephew and business partner George Burt[2] (1816-1894) wanted to give something back to their home town, which was the source of their Portland and Purbeck limestone, popular for building at the time. John Mowlem built the Mowlem Institute, a reading room and public library, in 1862. George Burt purchased an undulating tract of land covering Durlston Head during the same year. This estate, the Durlston Estate, included quarries that supplied their firm with limestone. Burt developed this estate as a tourist attraction.

 

Burt established the Durlston Estate upon the crest of the hill and here he built his folly Durlston Castle. The castle was designed by the Weymouth architect G.R. Crickmay (1830-1907) and built by W.M. Hardy in 1886-87 entirely of local stone. The 'castle' was never a real castle: it was purpose-built by Burt as a restaurant for the visitors to his estate.

 

The castle played a part in the evolution of radio and telecommunications. A team of Marconi's engineers used the roof of the castle in the 1890s for some of their early wireless experiments to transmit to the Isle of Wight.

 

The castle passed through the hands of many owners until in 1973 it was bought by Dorset County Council.

  

Description

  

The side wall of the castle features a sundial and two stone tablets inscribed with various statistics such as clock times and tides around the world. South of the castle is the Great Globe, built by Burt in 1887.[3] The footpaths around the Castle and Great Globe are lined with cast iron bollards that were brought from London. All around the estate there are further stone plaques carved with quotations from Shakespeare and the Bible, maps showing the English Channel and the United Kingdom, and further facts about the natural world. These surrounds were placed during the period 1887 to 1891.

 

Also within the Durlston Country Park and within walking distance of the Globe are Durlston Bay, the Tilly Whim Caves and the Anvil Point Lighthouse. The Park is part of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site.

  

Restoration

  

Durlston Castle and the Great Globe were both restored during 2010 and 2011 by the Council.[4][5] The castle now houses a new Visitor Centre to Durlston Country Park and National Nature Reserve, and stands as a gateway to the Jurassic Coast.

Submission by the less dominant bird saves injury I guess, the coarse hair to the left is a roadkill wild boar lunch!

 

Watching their behaviour over several days, it is fascinating to see the bird that is eating protect its food by covering it over using its outspread wings, almost trying to hide it and to say "go away....it's mine"!!

There's always money in the Banana Stand!

 

Since I posted my original Banana Stand in 2015, I've received many requests for instructions, sets, stickers, etc. Since then I've been able to refine the design and, more importantly, have some professionally printed and die-cut stickers made up for the MOC. I heard the calls for making this available loud and clear. I wanted this to be a special kit; my first publicly available kit that incorporated full color PDF instructions, custom figures, high quality stickers, all in a fun build and a nice package!

Tree stand Neerim Junction West Gippsland

Today we all face situations we never planned on for sure. Tragedies come our way that may or may not involve us directly. We can’t ignore the depth of pain we feel for others because it’s part of the human experience. We Stand Tall in the face of challenges that we didn’t know would exist a few short weeks ago. We do this instinctively I believe because we need to know that tough times, pain and sorrow are temporary. We’re not meant to live our lives confined to our homes. Give Thanks to those people who tough it out for you and me in the trenches daily. We know who they are. Stand Tall for them too as well as yourself. Stand Tall because humankind wants to enjoy a contented life with family, friends and that new face you’ll see today. Say “hello” to a stranger, make someone laugh because you’ll move them to do the same. Stand Tall because it’s who you are, proud, happy, strong and yes connected. Look at all you come in contact with in your daily life. You effect people. Stand Tall and others will feel your presence. Lastly Stand Tall because it’s who you are. Thanks for viewing my work....Hey, wash your🙏hands☮️

Life will always have its ups and downs, but it doesn't mean you can't stand proud.

A beautiful foggy morning in Te Anau. Loved waking up to this still foggy morning. Didn't love my lens constantly fogging up BUT loved the results of what the fog gave me to capture.

stand for our daily challenge

i realized after i heard the song "i stand alone" it belonged to this image. i was never happy with the name of this piece. now it is right.

 

someone mentioned to me they couldn't tell those were people out there. those are people out there!

 

badwater, death valley, calif. my very first lensbaby. nothing quite like that effect. boy, i loved that lens.

  

my anthem

 

I Stand Alone

 

I know the sound of each rock and stone

I embrace what others fear

You are not to roam in this forgotten place

Just the likes of me are welcome here

 

Everything breathes

And I know each breath

It's more than enough for this man

 

Like every tree stands on its own

Reaching for the sky I stand alone

I share my world

With no one else

All by myself I stand alone

 

Deep in the darkness my heart still sees

Everything that I'll never be

Behind these eyes I'll go everywhere

There's no need for sympathy

Everything breathes and I know each breath

In my world there's no compromise

 

Like every tree stands on its own

Oh reaching for the sky I stand alone

I share my world with no one else

All by myself...

 

Still

I will remember

Still

I'll run with you, yes

And when it's time for you to go

Take me in your heart

 

Like every tree

Stands on its own

Oh reaching for the sky I stand alone

I share my world with noone else

All by myself

I stand alone

 

All by myself... all by myself

I stand alone
