Some pictures taken by the late Michael Cleary. I will be uploading any I think may be of interest. None were catalogued. Where I know the approximate date I will state it. Similarly I will give the location.
For some years Blue Triangle operated Essex Sunday contract service 622 between Harlow and Great Yeldham. RTs were most commonly used, but an RCL also appeared.

just woke up and made this in photoshop for some reason, might use it as a background image for a myspace or something.......
my wife asked me,
where have you been the last three hours ?
I created a picture.
Wow, she said, looks like a Mackintosh.
I didn't think of Charles Rennie ... I was just in a flow ...
I said, pretending to be indignant
and smiled at her ...

have left the grid several times, that's the only way good things happen ...
grid versus texture versus pattern ...
;-) ...
Because I mentioned Ch.R.Mc ...
I could have also mentioned Oswald Mathias Ungers ...
Mackintosh was contradictory in a contradictory time of upheaval ... he admired the style, Wiki thinks, because of its restraint and economy of means rather than ostentatious accumulation; its simple forms and natural materials rather than elaboration and artifice; and its use of texture and light and shadow rather than pattern and ornament. In the old western style, furniture was seen as ornament that displayed the wealth of its owner; the value of the piece was established according to the length of time spent creating it. In the Japanese arts furniture and design focused on the quality of the space, which was meant to evoke a calming and organic feeling to the interior.
At the same time a new philosophy concerned with creating functional and practical design was emerging throughout Europe: modernism. The central aim in modernism was to develop a purity of expression with designs explicitly responsive to intended building use. Ornament and traditional styles were demoted. Although Mackintosh has been counted as a pioneer of modernism, his work always retained a decorative sensibility and features ornament. Mackintosh took his inspiration from his Scottish upbringing and blended them with the flourish of
Art Nouveau
and the simplicity of Japanese forms.
While working in architecture, Charles Rennie Mackintosh developed his own style: a contrast between strong right angles and floral-inspired decorative motifs with subtle curves (for example, the Mackintosh Rose motif), along with some references to traditional Scottish architecture. The project that helped make his international reputation was the Glasgow School of Art (1897–1909). During the early stages of the Glasgow School of Art Mackintosh also completed the Queen's Cross Church project in Maryhill, Glasgow. It is the only built Mackintosh church design and is now the Charles Rennie Mackintosh Society headquarters. As with his contemporary
Frank Lloyd Wright,
Mackintosh's architectural designs often included extensive specifications for the detailing, decoration, and furnishing of his buildings. The majority, if not all, of this detailing and significant contributions to his architectural drawings were designed and detailed by his wife Margaret Macdonald whom Charles had met when they both attended the Glasgow School of Art. Their work was shown at the eighth
Vienna Secession Exhibition
in 1900.

I had the day off of work today and I had intended to do housework all day, but when my son was over last night he mentioned going to see Beauty and the Beast today. It's both of our favorite Disney animated movies and he's been waiting for this live action version to come out for months and months. So we went early this afternoon after I had done a couple things around the house, The movie was great, totally lived up to our expectations!! We both loved it. I spent the rest of the afternoon and early evening grocery shopping and running errands. Okay, and some Pokemon Go, too. I am hosting my book club tomorrow night and I still have too many things to do. I asked the kids if they could think of any triangles and my younger son remembered that my daughter has one in her emergency kit in her car. So I grabbed it and took a quick shot for the theme! It's after 9:30 and I better get moving quick!
Today's shot is for The Hereios' theme, triangles.

I challenged OASIS to create new models under one condition - it must be made from four units only. As always with the creation process, when you look for a 4 units models, you can find 6, 7 or even 8, but not the elusive four... This model is called Effervescent; a beautiful word, if I may say.
This is a modern triangle baby quilt I made for the sake of making! Love the peachy (not pink Britt!) colors and kind of funky shapes.

@outergate: in response to the front door at sunset photo: thanks for the critique, you are right there isn't really a story. i like the photo because of the feeling it evokes, nothing more nothing less. yes it's an abstraction, but the mood it sets with the color and reflection is what i thought was cool. thanks for the visit!

Jasper the Spoodle in that wonderful doggy sit/lie down. He's such a big rangy guy I always revel in his positions.
I see three triangles in this photo. I wonder, are there more?
Addendum: there are many more. I was counting the triangle of his legs to bottom, the triangle of his tail, and the triangle on the rug, lower right. Lots of dark triangles and triangles within triangles.
Whatta group you are! You all help me to see better.
I'm behind on comments. I'll catch up. So sorry.
I always find it interesting how you see things when you start looking. I've walked past this fence hundreds of times, and noticed it anew today. As well as the triangle "handle", the knots in the wood make a lot of circles within the rectangular palings. Cool.
