A significant place utilized by the Snuneymuxw people for thousands of years and traditionally known as Saysutshun, Newcastle Island is a wondrous escape from the bustling urban center of Nanaimo just across the harbour.
Alongside the strong First Nations presence and culture on the island, it is also home to many rich histories which include coal mining, a sandstone quarry, and herring salteries, all of which make Newcastle Island a must-see eco-tourism destination for those visiting Nanaimo.

The inspiration for this photo was to feature the sign about Photographing Frank Lloyd Wright that I saw on the Chicago/Franklin "L" station platform, the subject truly intrigued me. I utilized the dramatic simplicity (ironic but true) of black and white photography. Frank Lloyd Wright pioneered the Prairie Style, the first truly American style of architecture. He is famously known for the use of cantilever elements and horizontal lines in his designs. I believe his architectural aesthetic is captured in the framing with the horizontal lines created by the lights, the metal grates, the rails and the bottom layer of wood planking. The lights reflecting on the glass in the background offer a "cantilever effect" appearing as floating suspended layers. This is my best shot of the year!

The Abanotubani District (aka Old Tbilisi) of Tbilisi, the capital of Georgia, is one of the city's oldest neighborhoods. It features bathhouses utilizing natural underground hot sulfur springs, Georgian Orthodox churches, an Armenian Apostolic church, the Jumah Mosque of Tbilisi, Georgian brick homes embellished with wooden balconies, shops, hotels, bars and restaurants. Sophiko Chiaureli (1937-2008) was a renowned Georgian actress. Her statue stands in the Sophiko Chiaureli Garden, which lies between Kote Afkhazi Street and Sioni Street in the district.
Big Boy 4014 is making its break-in run after a year long hiatus in 2020 with UP Train PCYDV 08. They're headed to Denver on the UP Greeley Sub. Thunderstorms are firing all over the area, one above the train moves off to the east while others to our west have blocked out the sun for the rest of the afternoon.
With over a year since the 4-8-8-4's most recent run in 2019, the UP Steam Crew has made numerous refinements to the locomotive, and this particular trip was to test those, along with LEAP PTC, which uses a unique system utilizing the trailing diesel locomotive as mother unit to operate the Wabtec I-ETMS on the steam locomotive leader.
This in preparation for "The Big Boy 2021 Tour", departing Cheyenne on August 5 for New Orleans, LA and arriving back on September 7. Included in that excursion is a fundraiser trip in Louisiana benefiting the Union Pacific Museum.
4014 was built by ALCO in November 1941 with a builder number 69585. The engine last ran on July 21, 1959 and was the second to last Big Boy to operate. It then spent 1962-2014 on public display at the Los Angeles Fairplex in Pomona, CA. It was removed from the RailGiants Train Museum in 2014. After a 5 year restoration in Cheyenne, WY at the UP Steam Shop, 4014 made its first runs in 2019, its first in 59 years.

By utilizing Photoshop, I overlaid the older Wooden Surfside Pier in Surfside Beach South Carolina, which has since been removed, with the new concrete Surfside Pier that is nearly completed. The seamless merging of the aged pier with its modern counterpart within Photoshop creates a stunning visual representation of the evolution of history. This showcases how architecture, technology, and aesthetic preferences have changed over time.
This photograph is not just a creative feat, but it also serves as an important reminder of our roots. It shows us where we have come from and where we are headed in regards to progress.
This artwork is a testament to the power of technology and its ability to bring the past and present together in a seamless and beautiful way. It is a reminder that we must always strive to preserve our history while also embracing the future. The merging of the old and new in this photograph is a symbol of hope and progress, and it is a true work of art.
Excerpt from Wikipedia:
Meiji Shrine (明治神宮), is a Shinto shrine in Shibuya, Tokyo, that is dedicated to the deified spirits of Emperor Meiji and his wife, Empress Shōken. The shrine does not contain the emperor's grave, which is located at Fushimi-momoyama, south of Kyoto.
After the emperor's death in 1912, the Japanese Diet passed a resolution to commemorate his role in the Meiji Restoration. An iris garden in an area of Tokyo where Emperor Meiji and Empress Shōken had been known to visit was chosen as the building's location.
Construction began in 1915 under Itō Chūta, and the shrine was built in the traditional nagare-zukuri style, using primarily Japanese cypress and copper. The building of the shrine was a national project, mobilizing youth groups and other civic associations from throughout Japan, who contributed labor and funding. The main timbers came from Kiso in Nagano, and Alishan in Taiwan, then a Japanese territory, with materials being utilized from every Japanese prefecture, including Karafuto, Korea, Kwantung, and Taiwan. It was estimated that the cost of the construction was ¥5,219,00 in 1920 (approximately US$26 million today), about a quarter of the actual cost due to the donated materials and labor.
It was formally dedicated on November 3, 1920, completed in 1921, and its grounds officially finished by 1926. The interior volume of the shrine complex when originally built was 650 tsubo. Until 1946, the Meiji Shrine was officially designated one of the Kanpei-taisha (官幣大社), meaning that it stood in the first rank of government supported shrines.
The original building was destroyed during the Tokyo air raids of World War II. The present iteration of the shrine was funded through a public fund raising effort and completed in October 1958.
Meiji Shrine is located in a forest that covers an area of 70 hectares (170 acres). This area is covered by an evergreen forest that consists of 120,000 trees of 365 different species, which were donated by people from all parts of Japan when the shrine was established. The forest is visited by many as a recreation and relaxation area in the center of Tokyo. The entrance to the shrine complex leads through the Jingu Bashi bridge. Meiji Shrine is adjacent to Yoyogi Park which together is a large forested area. The entrances open at sunrise and close at sunset.
Petra (Arabic: البتراء, Al-Batrāʾ; Ancient Greek: Πέτρα), originally known as Raqmu (Nabataean Arabic: الرقيم), is a historical and archaeological city in southern Jordan. Petra lies on the slope of Jabal Al-Madbah in a basin among the mountains which form the eastern flank of Arabah valley that run from the Dead Sea to the Gulf of Aqaba. Established possibly as early as the 4th century BC as the capital city of the Nabataean Kingdom. The Nabataeans were nomadic Arabs who invested in Petra's proximity to the trade routes by establishing it as a major regional trading hub.
The trading business gained the Nabataeans considerable revenue, and Petra became the focus of their wealth. The earliest recorded historical reference to the city was when an envious Greek dynasty attempted to ransack the city in 312 BC. The Nabataeans were, unlike their enemies, accustomed to living in the barren deserts, and were able to repel attacks by utilizing the area's mountainous terrain. They were particularly skillful in harvesting rainwater, agriculture and stone carving. The Kingdom's capital continued to flourish until the 1st century AD when its famous Al-Khazneh facade was constructed, and its population peaked at an estimated 20,000 inhabitants.
Encroaching troops of the Roman Empire in 106 AD forced the Nabataeans to surrender. The Romans annexed and renamed the Kingdom to Arabia Petraea. Petra's importance declined as sea trade routes emerged, and after a 363 earthquake destroyed many structures. The Byzantine Era witnessed the construction of several Christian churches. By 700, the city became an abandoned place where only a handful of nomads grazed goats. It remained an unknown place until it was rediscovered by Swiss explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt in 1812, sparking renewed interest in the city.
The city is famous for its rock-cut architecture and water conduit system. Another name for Petra is the Rose City due to the color of the stone out of which it is carved. It is a symbol of Jordan, as well as Jordan's most-visited tourist attraction. It has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1985. UNESCO has described it as "one of the most precious cultural properties of man's cultural heritage".

Back in late October 2009 District two did not operate quite like it does now. Crews were utilized for the full 12 hours, there were rumblings about Rigby closing up. Oh yeah, there were twice as many trains, too. I used to frequent Wells, ME often due to the fact it was a popular place to outlaw westbounds. It seemed as though the trains would move out of Rigby to make room for the westbounds coming out of District one, and Wells was the most fitting and "out of the way" place to put them, as well as a quick cab ride from Rigby. On this particular day I caught up with one in North Berwick, right around MP 232. The real catch was the two six-packs leading (a welcoming sight at that point in time, only 621, 643, and 690 remained operating).
A minimalist architectural exploration focusing on the interplay of color, texture, and geometry. This composition utilizes a vertical bisecting line to contrast vibrant yellow and deep ochre facades. The symmetry of the four windows is complemented by the intricate reflections of neighboring buildings, adding a layer of hidden narrative to the abstract flat-lay perspective.
This was definately the best show of the rare mileage trip for CNJ 113 from Minersville to Port Clinton and return over RBMN's former Reading Territory. This was a special charity fundraising event that would see the beefy steam switcher making an approximately 18 mile trip south over the Minersville and Pottsville branches to the railroad's headquarters community where the locomotive would be turned on the turntable to lead back north.
She puts on quite the show of smoke and sound as she hammers across across Main Street at MP 89 on the former Reading mainline now designated as RBMN's Pottsville Branch.
They are passing the depot that opened in February 1902 replacing an earlier structure on the line that by this date was already 60 years old! The 40 by 100 ft one story station is constructed of Pottsville conglomerate
rock with trimmings of Indiana limestone. Interestingly I learned while researching this caption that the stone for the depot was repurposed from the old Cressona engine house that had been torn down the prior year.
The depot would serve regularly scheduled passenger trains for nearly eight decades until 1981 when Septa discontinued their diesel service extending to Pottsville. Presently the RBMN utilizes the nicely restored building as their passenger department office and occasionally runs special event trains from here.
As for 113, she is a 1923 product of Alco's Schnectady works. Purportedly among the largest and heaviest class of 0-6-0 switchers ever built she is also one of only two surviving Central of New Jersey steam locomotives and the only one in operation, having returned to live in 2013 after a half century cold. Added to that rarity she is also the only anthracite burning locomotive currently in operation making her quite special on many levels. This page will take you to more history of the 113 with many great photos: www.rrproject113.org/cnj-113

The V-22 Osprey is a joint service multirole combat aircraft utilizing tiltrotor technology to combine the vertical performance of a helicopter with the speed and range of a fixed-wing aircraft. With its rotors in vertical position, it can take off, land and hover like a helicopter. Once airborne, it can convert to a turboprop airplane capable of high-speed, high-altitude flight. This combination results in global reach capabilities that allow the V-22 to fill an operational niche unlike any other aircraft. This aircraft has filled the assault support role for the US Marine Corps with the MV-22 since 2007. The US Air Force & the Air Force Special Operations Command has utilized the CV-22 variant since 2009. The US Navy began taking delivery of the CMV-22, featuring long range fuel tanks, in 2020. The Japan Ground Self-Defense Force utilizes a modified MV-22 in humanitarian support, search and recovery, and transport missions. The US Marines also utilize their MV-22s in a presidential support role at HMX-1.

This shot has an interesting story with it. I'm in the middle of testing the Rodenstock line of high end filters for the Canadian distributor, so I have been going purposefully to get certain shots that emphasize the use of filters. This was one shot I wanted to take as a long exposure, so I used the Rodenstock Vari-ND filter set not quite to the maximum (about a 4 stop ND effect). I wanted the full range of both the sunset and to capture the light trails from passing cars while utilizing the cool painted turn arrows on the asphalt surface. This 13 second exposure had just finished when I see flashing lights behind me. I turn, and an Ontario Provincial Police car has "pulled me over". The officer leaves his vehicle in the middle of the road, and comes over to ask me what I'm doing. I explain, and he looks at me like I'm kind of crazy. He then asks what I'm taking a picture of. I start to explain, but then just grab the camera and show him the image. His look changed, and I could tell he was interested. He asked if I was a "pro photographer or something?" I told him I was, and he went back and got in his car...and that was that. I decided that it might be time to stop shooting in the middle of the road :) P.S. Thanks for pushing me past the 2 million view mark on Flickr last night!

Southern Emerald Moth caterpillars are highly unique in that they collect bits of flower petals, leaves, or whatever is available and attach them to their bodies for camo... they also adapt their color depending on their host plant! This guy was using the paintbrush bristle-like dead petals of an Ironweed wildflower for camo while assuming a pinkish coloration...

The eastbound TP&W road freight passes the former site of the TPW-Wabash diamonds and the restored Wabash depot, which looks just like it did when it was built in 1895.
Forrest was a division point on the Wabash's Chicago-Decatur mainline, and, until the 1930s, a roundhouse and engine terminal were located across from the depot. Until the 1970s, the Wabash and its successor, Norfolk and Western, utilized trackage rights on the TP&W between Forrest and Fairbury to access the Streator Branch. The former Wabash was abandoned between Manhattan and Risk Junction in 1991.
instead of buying myself an advent calendar this year I subscribed to a substack that gives prompts everyday for making and creating. I decided to utilize one of my tins to keep it in.
Possibly the most ambitious custom Paladin utilized by the Sons of Fenrir. The Javelin was built on the Varangian lunar base with direct input from the commander of the orbital interception/defense force Ragnar Skallagrim. Ragnar's frame concept had an emphasis on high maneuverability precision striking in a zero-g environment. This unit is equipped with an auto balancing system with the many vernier thrusters installed around its limbs and body, giving it unsurpassed mobility. By simply switching the type of propellent and vernier engines it can operate equally well within an atmospheric combat theater. It's armaments include a standard Tyrfing blade and a prototype gauss rifle capable of launching rounds with three times the kinetic impact force of any known rail gun or similar magnetically propelled ballistics on Arcadia. Making it an incredibly lethal weapon that can take down a frame in a single shot. In the hands of Ragnar, who's prolific piloting skills are known throughout the guard, this frame may even rival the fearsome Tyrant frame.
Arriving a late at the Harry S. Truman Depot in Independence, MO on Main Track 1 of the UP Sedalia Sub is Amtrak Train No. 314, the "Missouri River Runner" with a B32-8WH leading the train. The Dash 8 is here because the usual Siemens Charger used for this train suffered a mechanical failure, thus requiring the need for a rescue unit. This Dash 8 actually led Amtrak Train No. 3 from Chicago to Kansas City a couple of weeks prior to this.
This was also the first day Amtrak resumed service for the "Missouri River Runner" trains between Kansas City and St. Louis, albeit only the morning trains, after flooding problems that persisted for a couple of weeks. Flooding on the Missouri River put the UP River Sub, which handles eastbound trains, out of service between KC and Jefferson City, MO. Although Amtrak runs via the UP Sedalia Sub between KC and Jefferson City, the River Sub traffic was rerouted onto the UP Sedalia Sub, and the added traffic as well as detours from KCS and NS resulted in Amtrak suspending service and utilizing busses from Kansas City and St. Louis. 6/13/19.
Exactly eleven years ago, my buddy Karwik presented a LEGO Jelcz 272 MEX. Back then it was a quite trick model, utilizing many building techniques I’m sure Karwik was a precedessor for like flex tube window frames for minifig cars, strange clip connections and so on.
When we were talking, Karwik mentioned how he’d change the model if some day it should be possible, mostly it was the talk about loosing roof height, rounding off corners and so on.
I don’t think that Karwik will be back in the LEGO world anytime soon, therefore I rebuilt the bus to match his ideas from back then.
It’s not exactly a reverse engeneered model, because I have no good pics of it, and no idea how Karwik built it back then, so however I solved the puzzle might be completley different.
The measurements are the same though.
I changed the chairs inside, I gave up making out how it “should” be, and made it my way, adjusting the amount of chairs to plans of the real bus, I made a rounded off dashboard, added some details, rounded off the roof corners, and made some other minor changes. Also used cut up official stickers rather than printing special decals...
One thing I really suck at is Karwik’s notorious use of “half clip” connections, where he barley snaps bars or flex tubes in a clip at werid angles. No idea how he achieved that in so many creations, when I do it right at the “edge” of where the bar needs to be it just snaps on or off, and that’s it. Kind of desperating when you need to adjust a bus roof that relies on a dozen of these being in exact position...

Ancient Hawaiians utilized ‘ama‘u fronds for various purposes, including as a mulch in the dry-land taro fields. Some ‘ama‘u tree ferns produce pulu, the soft wooly material also found in the hāpu‘u tree fern (Cibotium species). Pulu had many uses in ancient Hawai’i.
The ‘ama‘u tree fern also has connections to ancient myths and traditions. According to legend, the pig god Kamapua‘a may take the form of ‘ama‘u, and has done so at Halema‘uma‘u Crater, a pit crater within the larger Kīlauea Crater on Hawai‘i Island.

The preview photo I posted was clearly incapable of serving the figure justice, at that time I had only completed what you had seen. Her hair piece took a little getting used to, as we have all seen the original hair piece used countless times. However I certainly trust that it serves it's purpose and is a much better choice than this. The additional shot you see above the figure is a recreation of the character's most famously definitive quote : "They believe this is the home of one of their gods! Way I see it, if those freaks wanna meet God, it's our duty to help them along!". The BrickArms DMR with which she's wielding features a painted scope and various other details.
If you leave a favorite, i'd love to hear your feedback below! :)

My Bat family, utilizing the most updated version of the Bat family members. Jason and Alfred are not Lego's as Lego hasn't made one yet(Can we hope for one in the Lego Batman 3 sets?) and I don't have a Lego Alfred.
Left to Right
Jason Todd- A Delta-Verse fig, the only non-purist fig, his hair.
Tim Drake Robin- Nothing special, just Lego's version, except I gave him a staff.
Alfred- Another Delta-Verse fig, I like him.
Batman- Lego's fig, I plan on revamping him A BUNCH once I get the parts.
Nightwing- Gave him a different hair piece and staffs.
Batgirl- Lego fig
Damian Wayne Robin- Gave him a hood, I forgot his sword.
I'll probably add a Bat Woman after I get another Batgirl, and damn, this was a pain to set up.
The DRG Fury utilizes a unique cylinder that allows rounds to be reloaded from the side as it rotates. Extra munition is stored in a special drum mounted off to the side of the cylinder (seen here sticking out from behind, due to the tall narrow shape of the drum) When the weapon is in need of reloading, simply remove the drum and replace it with a fully one, and cycle once to start the process.
Folding stock included to compensate for the higher fire rate of this already high recoil platform.
Inspired by Robbe's latest revolver.
Os Guerreiros de Terracota de Xian
The Terracotta Warriors and Horses is a collection of terracotta sculptures depicting the armies of Qin Shi Huang, the first Emperor of China. A whole army which would accompany it's emperor into immortality.
Discovered in 1974 by local farmers, the approximately 6000 figures of soldiers, that have been reassembled from broken pieces, are all different in it's facial features and expressions, clothing, hairstyle, and gestures.
It is estimated that the tomb took 38 years to build, between 247 BC and 208 BC, and utilized the labor of over 700,000 conscripts. The emperor died in 210 BC.
Explored! Aug 20, 2014
This MOC has filled four purposes:
The first, a ship utilizing the coral and dark bluish grey hulls together. Coral only had the top section in one Friends set, and the DBG only came in the avengers Helicarrier.
The second, to build a ship in a more later age sail style, more straight and less curvy.
Third, to honor my older brothers MOC from 17 years ago or so. He built a ship, called it the Sea Hawk. Combined with the 2009 Pirate line being announced, was what really kicked off my enduring love for Pirate Lego.
And fourth, to build a highly detailed (for me) ship with Power Functions. Not only are there lights, but the ship is moterized!
About the MOC itself, I'm not happy with my stern. When I first started building ships, I found the stern the easy part. Build a box with windows. Boom, your done. I was partially hampered by having to have the Power Function receiver hidden there. The bow, on the other hand, is kinda the reverse. I used to struggle with it (A couple of my older MOCs have HORRENDOUS bows) but nowadays I find them easier. I wasn't originally planning to use the prefab part, but it worked pretty well, and the aesthetic of the part is similar to the 1x4x2 bar fence, which were parts prominently used my my brothers old MOC. Which he probably still has partially assembled somewhere.

When I admire the wonders of a sunset or the beauty of the moon, my soul expands in the worship of the creator"
Mahatma Gandhi's thoughts on nature
