Bethesda Terrace and Fountain

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

  

Bethesda Terrace and Bethesda Fountain with its Angel of the Waters statue

  

Bethesda Terrace and Fountain are two architectural features overlooking The Lake in New York City's Central Park. The fountain, with its Angel of the Waters statue, is located in the center of the terrace.

 

Bethesda Terrace two levels are united by two grand staircases and a lesser one that passes under Terrace Drive. They provide passage southward to the Central Park Mall and Naumburg Bandshell at the center of the park. The upper terrace flanks the 72nd Street Cross Drive and the lower terrace provides a podium for viewing the Lake. The mustard-olive colored carved stone is New Brunswick sandstone, with a harder stone for cappings, with granite steps and landings, and herringbone pattern paving of Roman brick laid on edge.

Lots of lines, which I love. It might be a faux door or even a faux window. I didn't inspect it closely.

Yellowstone National Park is known for its flows of boiling hot water. Which is appropriate, given that it sits on top of a massive super-volcano.

 

In the area where this scene is located, boiling water flows over the surface. In this case, the minerals in that flow have dropped out as the water cooled in spots, leaving these organic ropes of "terraces".

 

These particular borders are 1-2 inches (2-5 cm) thick.

Location : Jatiluwih, Bali - Indonesia, This place is one of the most favourite rice terrace for photography shoot. The landscape was very beautiful with multiple layers in depth. Don't miss it when you do a holiday trip in Bali.

Terraced rice paddy fields are quite a spectacular marvel, both in their beauty and their ingeniousness.

 

A while ago I stumbled upon some mind-blowing photos of these, and I really wanted to see if I could do them justice in LEGO. I had quite a bit of lime wedge plates lying around, so that became the basis for the build, augmented with tiles and jumper plates.

 

I wanted to make thin paddies to get the very layered feel to the build. This naturally meant that the terrain had to be quite steep, or the paddies would be wider. I also wanted to intersperse the paddies with some overgrown jungle, to get a nice contrast and some variation. A river at the bottom also made sense since the water had to end up somewhere.

 

The terracing was certainly the most complicated thing going on here. The goal was to get smooth angles with showing as few studs as possible. Smooth angles pretty much means you need to use wedge plates, which also means you have very little area to work with before the studs become visible.

 

The building process was quite frustrating as building up layer by layer doesn't really work as you have to make sure that the top layers will combine well, or you may have to tear everything up. This meant the paddies were actually built from left to right rather than from the bottom to the top. There was still quite a bit modifications needed and I sometimes had to pull whole sections out to fix a small detail, and then try to put it back together again. Not the most fun ;)

 

I generally find lime green a bit hard to work with, as it is easy for it to overpower other greens because of its brightness. It was definitely the right colour choice here though, so had to try to make it work. In the end I think the colours work together because they represent different things, while trying to make them blend might have been harder. Here it is quite clear that the lime is paddies and the other greens are jungle and other random vegetation.

 

The most enjoyable part for me was (as it usually is) the forest/jungle. Making it work on very steep mountainsides was a bit of a challenge, but I had a lot of fun trying out both new elements and new techniques to get a varied, but still natural looking jungle.

 

I am quite happy with the end result of this build, though I feel it generally looks better close up rather than in overview photos of the whole build. Probably because close ups are more immersive. Will have to take some more of those later :)

 

As to whether I have made the rice terraces justice, I would have to say no. Though I do feel the build turned out quite well, the beauty of the real thing is just too high of a benchmark to reach. Just go ahead and google 'rice terraces' and you'll see what I mean :)

On our terrace there are some oldfashioned - some might call them retro/vintage - carriage lights and one of them holds a somewhat illegal lightbulb. 100 w uh my gosh! I always argue with my partner, he wants me to throw them away but I hold against it that they still work and I do not want to waste that. One day, when they no longer work, yep - I will exchange them for whatever will be modern and allowed then - but for now, well, just sue me.

Rhyd-y-Car ironworkers cottages originally from Merthyr Tydfil at St Fagans Museum of History nr Cardiff, South Wales.

Not sure whether I've overdone the processing in this shot. Does it look a little artificial? You be the judge.

 

St Fagans is superb and FREE to enter. Buildings from different historical periods are taken down and re assembled here. Complete with contents in most cases. And very helpful and knowledgeable volunteers to explain the properties history etc. We spent just over half a day there and only saw less than half of it. Workers cottages, school room, farmhouses, shops etc etc. You get the picture. We'll be back.
