It is those rare moments - when the stars align and the elements appear to melt together. It is always a process of transition from one state to another. When the mist is rolling through the valley striving over the frosty fir trees. When the very first rays of light illuminate the sky and this diffuse light gently hits the huge pines raging out of the leafless silver birches and both are showing their magical glow. Pretty sure this will look superb on a fine art matt paper print.

Oswald strives to be ordinary. You think all wizard workshops are rickety and colourful? Well you are wrong there my friend. For you have obviously never meet Oswald, who is the one wizard in all the land who prefers the laws of gravity to imagination.

 

Entry for R1 of the LCBTC.

 

Hello everybody, its been a while. And it may seem I have been rather inactive but in truth I have been busy building things that just cannot be posted yet...

I don't mind this, it's not really a wizards workshop that much. No bright colours and wonky angles (hense the name). Oh well, hopefully i will do better next round (if I get through that is :p)

Hope you enjoy and C&C Needed.

The Beltline Urban Murals Project is a community driven initiative transforming the centre of Calgary, Alberta, Canada into an expansive open-air art gallery since 2017.

 

The project celebrates the diversity, talent and vibrant character of the city through works of art that are thought-provoking, whimsical, awe-inspiring, creative and powerful. We believe public art has an important role to play in building community, promoting dialogue and enriching our cultural landscape.

 

Each year, BUMP strives to bring together a diverse portfolio of engaging local, national and international mural artists to create works of art representing different styles, media, people and stories.

Tra due individui, l'armonia non è mai scontata, deve essere continuamente conquistata.

In Striving for More, One Can’t Put Others Down

It’s your race to strive, struggle and win

The blessings of this life are yours; do not settle for less!

They are a gift from above and for others around

Be sure to share as you bring it to life

After all, we’re all on this same planet together!

 

Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one morning while walking the Endless Wall Trail in New River Gorge National Park & Preserve. This setting is looking to the northeast from Diamond Point Overlook. With this image, I focused on the look across that ‘endless wall,’ capturing some of the cliff face present along with the forest of trees that seemingly went on to a distant horizon. By metering for the slightly brighter areas in the tree leaves, I felt I was able to capture enough of the highlights, while later being able to pull out the more shadowed areas without a color cast. I did some initial post-processing work making adjustments to contrast, brightness and saturation while playing around as I learned how to work with DxO PhotoLab 4. I then exported a TIFF image to Nik Color Efex Pro 4 where I added a Polarization, Foliage and Skylight filter for that last effect on the image captured.

Yesterday I attended a Christmas Concert that was jointly put on by Our Lady of Sorrows Catholic church and All Saints Kingsway Anglican church. It was a fundraiser in support of the Out-of-the-cold program.

 

"Out of the Cold is an interfaith program that strives to respond in a meaningful way to the basic physical needs of shelter, food and warm clothing for the less fortunate members of our society – as well as to respond to the deeply human needs of compassion, dignity and feelings of self-worth."

So much of life is about striving, reaching for something.

He always seems that real life is about to begin but every time there was a ordeal to overcome an obstacle in the way must be passed, the work to be done, religion must be paid, and time must be spent, so life begins, but I finally came to understand that these things were Life is

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~~•~•~•~•~•~~

Han ser alltid ut til at virkeligheten er i ferd med å begynne, men hver gang det var en prøvelse for å overvinne et hinder i veien må passeres, arbeidet som skal gjøres, religion må betales, og tid må tilbringes, så livet begynner, men livet begynner, men Jeg kom endelig til å forstå at disse tingene var livet er

  

Waking up to another wet, foggy day in Toronto. Best seen large by clicking on the photo. Have a great as t week everyone!

The 2016 Weekend at the Asylum, organised by Victorian Steampunk Society is the biggest Steampunk Festival in Europe. It is held in the historic uphill district of Lincoln, Lincolnshire.

 

For four glorious days the historic streets of Lincoln are thronged with thousands of splendidly dressed steampunks enjoying a festival which strives to combine art, literature, music, fashion, comedy and simple good fun.

 

The event contains programmes of features and entertainment, such as the Empire Ball, Majors Review (The Major's Soiree) and the National Tea Duelling final, along with lots of live music and comedy and the largest steampunk market in the World, the Bazaar Eclectica.

REBORN by eBODY v1.69.5

-Strive to be original-

The small dark green tree certainly got it!

“All strive for victory. But not all understand what it truly is. To a soldier or pilot on the line, victory is surviving the current battle. To a politician, victory is an advantage one can bring to a bargaining table. To a warrior, victory is driving an enemy from the field of battle, or bringing him to surrender.

Sometimes victory is greater than the warrior could ever hope for. Sometimes it is more than he is able to hear.”

- Thrawn

 

It all started almost two months ago with an idea. Make something for May 4th (I’m late, I know, but cut me some slack). Me and Jan, the Creator are both big fans of the Imperial architecture seen in the Star Wars universe and wanted to do something large in size. After some hours of researching, looking through many concept arts and designs, the plans were put together and we set out to build our creations.

 

~ Platform ~

The starting point for me here was the platform on which the custom Tie Fighter (designed by Jerac) and many minifigs are standing on. One piece of concept art / Imperial structure we found was a large landing platform on Kashyyyk. To get the shaping right, a combination of corner slopes, hinges and many larger tiles were used to get the look. Since the surrounding area was to be terrain, I went with Dark Orange as the color for the ground. I purposefully left this area more flat and basic to leave attention towards the base. I also wanted a small area below the platform to store speeders which also helps break up the bottom area, giving it some action.

 

~ Base ~

The base itself was built in two main sections and some medium sized segments at the top. Walls here uses various tiles in LBG and DBG to form this Imperial architecture design. Was quite a challenge later on with the lack of tiles in certain areas so I had to get creative in how I would spread them. Instead of just using regular tile, I also made use of sandwhich tiles, corner faucet cut tiles and some snot to built up this area. Lots of other elements were used for detail including some DBG frames that I attached to tiles to create this column in the middle wall. The key thing while working on this was to keep a balance of simplicity and detail, something that can get lost while working on a larger creation. As we get to the top, you can see more detail and extras, like crates and dishes that populate this area.

 

~ Minifigs ~

The last thing I want to discuss is the minifigs used throughout the build. The Imperial selection of officers, troopers and crew is very extensive so once again, keeping a balance was important. Me and Jan wanted to include characters like Grand Admiral Thrawn and Moff Tarkin to give these creations a bit more purpose. Perhaps they’re here to inspect something new, here for a strategy session, the point is these two give a presence, even with being two small minifigs. The Death Troopers additionally work well to complement those, giving you once again the feeling that there are things at work here.

 

Thank you to CTR Bricks for helping edit the picture.

I always strive for more. How much more? As high as possible.

And if I can — to jump beyond the sun.

But along with this aspiration comes the understanding

that with height comes the risk of falling.

And so I remain on the same rope, walking carefully,

between aspiration and fear.

And if I simply look at things from a slightly different angle —

I may see

that in fact,

I passed the sun long ago.

 

Sauter au-dessus du soleil

J’aspire toujours à davantage. Jusqu’où ? Le plus haut possible.

Et si je le peux — sauter au-delà du soleil.

Mais avec cette aspiration vient aussi la compréhension

qu’avec la hauteur vient également le risque de la chute.

Alors je reste sur cette même corde, avançant avec précaution,

entre aspiration et peur.

Et si je regardais simplement les choses sous un angle

un peu différent — je verrais

qu’en réalité,

j’ai dépassé le soleil depuis longtemps.

...striving to survive at the city jungle.

 

Pentax EI-2000

(July, 2002)

Always striving to go places not many others have is one of my constant goals when it comes to railfanning. I don't see any fun in going to the places that hundreds of unoriginal, boring sheep have milked dry to oblivion such as the iron range, LS&I, Trona, or the Columbia River gorge. On my recent fully self-funded trip (springowski could never), I wanted to explore the deep south and its plethora of rarely documented shortlines, as well as some actually enjoyable class 1 action that the two eastern roads can't provide. Among my main targets was Alabama and Gulf Coast and their newly acquired fleet of GEs. One of those, ex Conrail C40-8W #4055, recieved G&W's 125th anniversary heritage paint. I thankfully timed my trip while it was being used on the turn job from Columbus, Mississippi to Boligee, Alabama and back. Here it is paired with a Columbus and Greenville SD40 as they build their train to head south. This is seriously one of the best looking engines I've ever seen. Hats off to G&W for doing this shit. The train would wait a few minutes as Golden Traingle would depart in front of them, and they themselves would make Watco's Alabama Southern wait at their diamond in the southern part of town. Columbus is an extremely underrated little railroad hotspot with 4 different shortlines and 2 class 1s running locals to town. More deep south content is to come.

While I normally strive to avoid cars, trucks and other vehicle when capturing images of roads, highways or streets...this setting seems perfect to see how it might just compliment the setting. It wouldn't be just a road with tall trees and amazing mountain peaks all around, it would be a drive in the beauty of nature around. Anyone seeing this image could image those in the trucks and cars soaking in these views while driving through Yoho National Park. The size of the vehicles also give a perspective to just big the peaks and trees are in this part of the Canadian Rockies!

1865, als ein verheerender Brand große Teile des Marktes von Admont verwüstete, wurde auch ein Großteil der Abtei ein Raub der Flammen, darunter auch die Stiftskirche. Nach dem Brand wurden die Kirche und das Stift wieder aufgebaut, obwohl in vereinfachter Form. In den Jahren von 1866 bis 1869 vom Architekten Wilhelm Bücher, zum Teil auf den romanischen und gotischen Fundamenten, neu errichtet, ist sie dem Regensburger Dom nachempfunden, und der erste neugotische Sakralbau Österreichs. Am 12. September 1869 erfolgte unter Abt Zeno Müller die Kirchenweihe.
