This past summer, I had a small garden on our balcony, and in its heyday, it was a colorful reminder that a city doesn't need to be concrete and metal.

 

Now, well past fall, most of the garden has followed the natural order of things. That is, except this one flowering bush. Well, truth be told, the plant itself is struggling.. but this tiny little flower has been holding on for weeks. Unfortunately, we had a frost last night, followed by brilliant sunlight. I think we may be nearing the end for this tenacious little thing.

 

But, it's a spectacular way to go, don't you think?

The Range Rover was introduced to the public back in 1970.

 

Combining the comfort of a Rover Saloon Car with a Land Rover’s tenacity, the early Mid Size SUV came with spacious accommodation for driver and passengers.

The powertrain with a modified Buick 215 V8 engine, Rover’s groundbreaking gearbox and permanent four-wheel drive system on long-travel coil springs made the Range Rover well capable on an off road.

Musée du Louvre exhibited an early model as an „exemplary work of industrial design“. Early models had very basic interiors, Rover’s Saloon Car features like power-steering, carpeted floors, air conditioning, cloth seats and wooden interior trim were fitted in later during production.

 

Like the real car, the model features a Technic ladder frame chassis on coil spring suspension and rigid axles.

The build is Creator Expert sized, length 39 studs, 14 width, height about 17 studs.

Peeping around the corner!

I took this photo at the Toronto Zoo. It was an overcast day and the sky was gray. Because of this I changed the sky with a blue sky photo of mine, to bring some life to the image.

How does that tree keep from falling?

Teasing tentacles prying rock fisures apart. An age old poison ivy rootbase at an even older stone wall in the city of Kyllburg in the German Eifel.

One wonders where the living cambium ends and the rock itself begins.

Now that's a tree that has what it takes to survive! If you look closely, it has 4 large rocks in the roots, that were taken right from the rock face as it grew!

Going through some of my older stuff. :)

Rock-strewn shoreline of the Winnipeg River during a summer of unusually low water levels. Knife painting on cradled plywood panel (oil, 11x14 in, sold).

From my archives. Seen in the vicinity of Sedona AZ.

 

This tree and the smaller bits of vegetation are vivid examples of how plants will struggle to find a foothold in order to survive.

Spotted during an early morning walk in Chefchaouen Morocco. I'd love to go back in a few years and see that this little guy is thriving. I'm rooting for him. Pun intended.
