A flight of stairs takes the visitor of the hypocenter park in Nagasaki down to the original ground level at the time of the explosion. The dirt and rumble left behind by the blast raised the ground level by several meters. The remains of destroyed houses, and several materials that boiled at the intense heat of the blast can be seen here behind a protective glass panel.
The icy signature of record-breaking freezing temperatures last night. For this largely tropical region, it is a Big Deal.

- www.kevin-palmer.com - Steam rises from the Illinois River as a new day dawns at Starved Rock State Park. The steam is formed due to the near 40 degree difference between the air temperature and the water. The subzero air caused the steam to turn to frost on the small grassy island.

Many thanks for every kind comment, fave, your words of encouragement, and the inspiration of your fine photography,
my friends! You make my day every day!
It's been nearly three weeks since we had real sunshine. So, even at -3F/-20C outside, I grabbed the nearest camera and headed down to the lake to search for an image. A nasty windchill limited me to a short, frantic shooting session, but any opportunity to search for a composition without dark, cloudy skies is a pure pleasure no matter how fleeting.
It really didn't get the respect it deserved because of the high price.
Renault wowed the crowds and the motoring press with their CoupéSpace (2+2 Coupe GT MPV) Avantime concept when they revealed their Matra inspired styling exercise at the Paris Motor Show in 1999. The concept by Patrick Le Quement was boldly taken into production largely unchanged. Featuring design ahead of its time the Avantime (French word "Avant" meaning "ahead" with English word "time") was packed full of luxuries, safety features and advanced engineering. Highlights included unique double-hinged 'kinematic' pillarless doors allowing easy access to the front and rear seats (even when tightly parked), the worlds largest opening glass sunroof at the time (a full 1m/sq of opening roof) featuring strengthened heat-reflecting glass, theatre seating (rear positioned higher than the front), galvanised steel chassis with aluminium upper structure, cavernous 530 litre boot, xenon headlights, a 'grand air' button which simultaneously opened all pillarless windows and sunroof, and finally a choice of powerful engines giving a grand tourer driving style. Delays in the launch prompted sudden competition from within when Renault themselves elected to put their concept Vel Satis model into production. Just ten months after Avantime production started in 2001, Matra announced that they would cease all vehicle manufacturing, with much of the facilities going on to be sold to Pininfarina in 2003. Renault elected not to continue the Avantime themselves. Across 18 months only 8,557 vehicles were built, half of those sold in France. BBC's Top Gear positioned the Renault Avantime at 'Sub Zero' on the 'Cool Wall' stating it was cooler even than the Aston Martin Vanquish and "the coolest car money can buy". Despite this just 229 cars sold in the Netherlands. Our car is a 2002 2.0 16V Turbo Expression in 'Noir Nocturne 268' Violet/Black with silver aluminium roof rails and 'beige hoggar' upholstery. The car is production number 137 in the sequence of cars built for the NL market. The Avantime combines bold styling with exceptional comfort and a host of highly attractive features that would appeal to most car enthusiasts. When you overlay the GT flare and performance with such limited production numbers, I believe that the Avantime possesses all of the hallmarks of a highly collectable classic.
A little like the Queen -Thistle has two birthdays!
Her official birthday was on the 1st January, she shares that with all other horses born last year and
today is her actual birthday - she shares that with me :o)
( for ODC - O Captain My Captain… )
I've really thought long and hard about this challenge and struggled with it!!!
Animals of all kinds have been great silent mentors for me over the years
and this last year following Thistle as she's grown and begun to take her place
in the moorland herd has taught me much - I could rabbit on but won't ;o)
