And be sure to check by my other acount: www.flickr.com/photos_user.gne?path=&nsid=77145939%40..., to see what else I saw 2 Weeks ago!!
Yes I'm back again.
However due to my main computer on which I edit my work being struck down with a big bad virus, this picture and all the others I am uploading, were Unedited but have now been replaced with Edited versions. So enjoy and Thanks for your patience and understanding.
I do still hate everything about this shit that is new Flickr and always will, but an inability to find another outlet for my work that is as easy for me to use as the Old BETTER Flickr was, has forced me back to Flickr, even though it goes against everything I believe in.
I don't generally have an opinion on my own work, I prefer to leave that to other people and so based on the positive responses to my work from the various friends I had made on Flickr prior to the changes I have decided to upload some more of my work as an experiment and to see what happens.
So make the most of me before they delete my acount: www.flickr.com/photos/69558134@N05/?details=1, to stop me complaining!!

Early morning arrival, Nieuw Amsterdam, Ft. Lauderdale. Forgot not to place the camera on the balcony rail (normally not a good idea due to ship vibration, but in this case more so if engine No. 6 is operating). Mid-way, top left is the Royal Princess.
Re engine #6, we were told by staff that this engine was not on line all the time, but that when it was on the vibration could be felt more so on the upper decks. Some nights you would go to bed and it felt like you were in a Motel Six of old, with a quarter in the bed vibrator.

My aunt Nancy recently gave me an issue of Architecture from September '87, which she'd picked up secondhand and figured I'd get a kick out of. Funnily enough, it turns out that September 87 was a banner month for buildings - we get reviews of the Lotus Temple in Delhi, the science museum at La Villette, some housing by our friends Tegnesteun Vandkunsten, the Picasso Museum in Barcelona, Stirling's addition to the Tate, and... IBA! Paulhans Peters' commentary is lukewarm, claiming that the enterprise is a rehash of already-established ideas, damned on the one hand by unadventurous architects sticking to what they know, and on the other by outrageous starchitects wrecking the city with their self-indulgent schemes. This sounds very little like the IBA I've seen, but who knows what it all looked like in 1987. However,
A few individual buildings also stand out like birds of paradise in an architectural desert. One of these rarities is the 'Loire Chateau' in Tegel, by Moore Ruble Yudell. Many architects reject it as kitsch, others admire it because it has escaped the depressing monotony of social housing projects. Whether it helps advance the art of housing construction is questionable.
The last comment, by the way, reflects the fundamental ambiguity of IBA's mission: is this a showcase of new ideas on housing, like the Hansaviertel InterBau from the 50s? That would certainly explain the need for involving all these famous architects, as opposed to anonymous schmoes. Or, was IBA "only" an ambitious building campaign for Berlin - hang the big new architectural ideas, Kreuzberg needs us now!
The peaceful, greenfield Tegelsee setting of these buildings and their neighbors (also by "names") would seem to suggest that reversing urban blight wasn't always the driving force of the project. And okay, maybe here they're just trying to develop a new neighborhood from scratch under the auspices of IBA. But certainly a context like this invites the "building showcase" reading.
But getting back to the Moore - is it indeed a "bird of paradise"? Well, I have to say it seems like a nice enough place to live. There's a nice succession of courtyard spaces...plenty of windows, views of the lake and so on. The question for us as archi-people is maybe whether the pomo jokes still make us laugh, or whether they've been slapped on by Moore, to disguise the fact that what we've really got here is nakedly populist, market-ready housing that Aunt Wanda would snap up in a heartbeat.
(The Aunt Wanda Factor is kryptonite for architects, who fear above all being rendered irrelevant, should their user base realize they actually much prefer to live in buildings with which architects have as little to do as possible. Where Aunt Nancy fits into all this, I couldn't begin to guess.)

User interface for my Nikon converted microscope. I mounted a stepper motor on the nikon stand. With microscope lenses I can use stacking photography again. I have a generic lens 4X, 40x and 100x that can give me beautiful images via the Nikon D7100. The step size for the 4x lens lens is 20 um. For a height of 2mm you have to take 100 pictures. With the Zerene stacking software, a photo is then compiled. This software can also create a 3D image. Later I will post more information about the device.
The main controller is the Fischertechnik TXT Controller and connected via the I2C to mijn FPGA unit.
A couple of years ago I noticed a user trail that intersected Espinosa trail and wound north through the adjacent brush toward the foot of a nearby hill. I noticed it because someone had tried to hide their tracks by dragging something, maybe a branch or blanket, across the trail; the air was still, and I remember studying the slope where the trail disappeared and wondering if someone was up there looking studying me. A couple of months later I explored that trail and found the remains of a small camp huddled around a cluster of boulders hidden in the tall manzanita. I followed the trail up to the edge where it began to descend the other side into Secret Canyon, but I didn't go farther. I had a notion where it came out; during one of my early Secret Canyon hikes I started up a dank path along a steep ravine, a trail designed for people coming down. The day was oppressively hot. The ground was muddy and bees were swarming in the shadow of the bank. Before long I turned around.
Today when I arrived at the trailhead I hadn't quite decided where I'd hike but by the time I reached the valley I was already making mental notes about the user trail, and an hour or so later I was turning onto it. There were no signs anyone had been on the trail recently though occasionally old bits of trash, like the empty Prazolan packing, huddled beneath the bushes. The trail meandered, crossing a couple of gulches, and I had to back track once to find it. The camp beside the boulders was still there. The long-discarded clothes and day-packs were weather-beaten and faded. Wadded up between the roots of a bush was a still shiny black trash bag. From the camp I wandered up to the foot of the hill where short bushes grew from the orange ground. I hiked up the hill and followed the ridge east along a series of saddles and peaks that gradually rose like a dorsal fin. Near the last peak a tree, possibly an elderberry, was in bloom. Its leaves were similar to a laurel sumac's in shape and size but were bright green, not the dusty dark green of the sumac, and were serrated and veined. Its yellow compound flowers were drawing lots of bees. I crushed a leaf but it had no particular smell but the flowers had a gentle nutmeg odor.
Since this was the highest point on the ridge, I took some pictures and started heading back, smelling the nutmeg flowers one last time. Near the west end of the ridge I noticed a long row of breadbox sized rocks that looked as if they had been placed there by hand. I couldn't figure out why. The line didn't seem to go anywhere or mark anything. As I was standing there trying to imagine a reason, I noticed a wasp fly to a spot on the ground close to where I was standing. It then disappeared into a small hole not much wider than the entrance to an ant nest. A moment later the wasp came back out, flew around a little, and then ducked back into the hole. It did this several times. But when I bent down to take a picture, I must have alerted it and it flew off. I waited but it didn't return. So I hiked down the hillside, admiring the sun baked rocks, brown as bread, and the delicate trails that crisscrossing the ground.
When I got to the user trail I turned north and started down the Secret Canyon side. I was more than half expecting the trail to be unpleasant - overgrown, dreary. Instead it was like descending through an arboretum with varieties of trees and bushes shading a beautiful trail that followed the ravine down. There were a few times I had to scramble down rock falls or skulk under an occasional bush but the descent was peaceful and pleasant. After about three quarters of an hour I was nearing the bottom of the slope. The brush receded and a wide strip of knee high green grass carpeted the ground. Fifty yards further on I was standing, once again, on Secret Canyon trail. I turned south and started back along the now familiar ground.
At this point, it occurred to me that there was another ravine that came down from the same ridge to my right and it might have a trail along it too. When I got to the ravine it took me less than a minute to discover the user trail. This ravine was much shorter and gentler and the ground around the trail more open. After twenty minutes I was navigating through moderately sparse chaparral at the top of a saddle. I was once again only a couple of dozen yards above Espinosa trail, though I was now about a half a mile west of where the first user trail was. To my surprise, I heard voices coming from up the trail to my left. Several hundred yards away stood a woman in a bright pink t-shirt looking up at me on the saddle. I skittered down the dusty slope. I could now see there were two women, the other one stood above the first on the side of the trail. I waved to them and then headed down into the valley and home.
