The London Terrace buildings encompass an entire city block bounded by Ninth and Tenth Avenues, as well as by West 23rd and 24th Streets
They contain approximately 1,700 apartments in 14 contiguous buildings of between 17 and 19 stories, and was constructed by Henry Mandel Companies and architectural firm Farrar & Watmough. On the outside, the building still appears to be one large complex, but it is operated on the inside as two separate organizations, London Terrace Towers and London Terrace Gardens; many of the internal connections have been closed off.
This Terrace is located in the Park of the Bennesse Art Museum (Naoshima, Japan).

Goulmima, Morocco
A wonderful place to go for a walk!
Goulmima (arabisation of the amazigh word Iguelmimene (the lakes), is a berber city in Morocco situated in the province of Errachidia, in the region of Meknès-Tafilalet. An agricultural oasis, it is fed by the Wadi Gheri, from the central High Atlas mountains. Like other settlements in Tafilalet, it was built as a fortified village ksar. One of the most important ones, Ighrem n'Igoulmimen(Ksar Goulmima), is in the process of restoration. Not just a historical location, several hundred people still live in the ksar.
Terraced Hills Sunset
Experience has taught me that one of the best times to create images having a strong emotional connection with the viewer is when there is a clearing storm during the sunrise or sunset hours. While wandering the rice terraced hills of Bali as a rainstorm was departing into the sunset, I found the conditions I needed to create such an image. When it comes to creating images, weather can be my best friend and best source of inspiration.
The rustic architecture, the flower pots and lanterns make of Tuscany a dreamy place.

Having checked the trailing load of coal hopper wagons, the fireman of 'Austerity' No.49 clambers onto the footplate prior to continuing along the Tanfield Branch towards Bowes Bridge on a murky 18th May 1997.

Verdant growth indicates the agricultural potential of this spot high in the arid mountains of the southern Mani (Greece), known as Kako Vouni ("bad mountain"). An old palaiomaniatiko settlement, probably founded in the Middle Byzantine era and abandoned centuries ago, is dominated by terracing and garden walls delimiting individual family plots. A pair of stone-lined roads through the middle of the village. Houses still stand on several of the plots.

I love how a high ISO long exposure shot turns darkness into light. You can see Claire and Gobi shooting in the Arcade.

I designed a half relief kit of these terraced houses some five years ago. At last I have got around to producing a full relief version.
The kit includes typical decorative front garden paths and also sufficient bricks walls for rear gardens.
This view shows two kits making a line of eight houses.
Terraced fields constructed by the Ancestral Puebloan culture on the top of Mesa Verde. The terraces absorb water that otherwise would flow off of the sandstone surface of the washes, allowing domesticated plants to grow using only natural precipitation.

A timeless scene that could have been seen at many colliery tips around the country during NCB days, with an 'Austerity' 0-6-0 saddle tank propelling hopper wagons with spoil for tipping. However, this was taken during a Bob Branch-organised photographic charter event on the Tanfield Railway on 18th May 1997, featuring Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns 'No.49' (Works No.7098 built in 1943) setting back to Terrace Junction at Marley Hill, prior to it undertaking a run-past.

A reverse view of the image I posted recently of the seafront terrace at Whitstable, taken 20 minutes before sunset.
The Hungduan rice terraces are one of the four clusters that make up the UNESCO World Heritage designation for the Ifugao rice terrace landscapes of Luzon, Philippines. We were lucky to visit Hungduan on the day of a festival where many locals dressed up in traditional clothing.
Machu Picchu is located at the top of a very steep mountain, and the Incas were able to create much arable land with the system of terraces and canals. Their construction methods created such sturdy buildings that a large portion if the walls still stand today. Only the thatched roofs are missing. Roofs have been added to some of the structures to simulate the Incan times.
Machu Picchu is only 7,800 feet elevation. After you've been in Cusco and other areas of the Sacred Valley which range from 9,500 to 12,500 feet, it's a piece of cake ! We've been drinking plenty of the coca tea, which is not from the same plant as cocaine, so I am not forming any illegal habits :). I have found, however, that my habit of using the 2 second timer and holding my breath while taking 3-5 bracketed images makes me quite dizzy !
The mountain peak you see here is actually Huayna Picchu. You can hike to the top though only 400 per day are permitted to do that. I did not do that hike, though I went part way up the Inka trail to the Sun Gate just to be able to say that I hiked the Inca Trail !
We are on the move very early tomorrow from Peru to Ecuador, so my Internet time is very limited.
Cumberland Terrace is a neoclassical terrace on the eastern side of Regent's Park in the London Borough of Camden, completed in 1826. It was one of several terraces and crescents around Regent's Park designed by the British architect John Nash (1752–1835), under the patronage of the Prince Regent (later George IV). The terrace was to stand opposite the Prince's proposed palace in the park and was therefore of particular importance in the scheme. It was named after the Prince Regent's uncle the Duke of Cumberland (King George III's younger brother), later King of Hanover.
The Terrace was built by William Mountford Nurse, with James Thomson serving as resident architect, and was completed in 1826. It consists of three main blocks, linked by decorative arches with typical neoclassical style and grandeur. The central block includes a large sculptural pediment by J. G. Bubb above a long colonnade of Ionic columns.
Cumberland Terrace remains in residential use. Originally comprising 31 houses which were entirely reconstructed behind the original façade in the 1960s, some have been converted into flats but many houses are still separate family homes. The first resident, William Mountford Nurse himself, moved into the terrace in 1828; the building was not fully occupied until 1836.
