Detail is dialed down to the most simple possible. Three complications: activity rings in the upper left corner (they're greyed out b/c the face is locked right now), current temperature in the upper right corner, and day + date on the face.
Each morning I change the accent color, usually to match my shirt, because why not?
In 1979, utility workers accidentally cut into a petroleum line in Culver City, California, creating an explosion that leveled half a city block. Since that time, utility workers have developed a code engineers or construction foremen spray paint on the street to denote unseen hazards beneath the surface to help workers avoid accidents during construction projects. They use both colors and shapes to create their nomenclature, which, to a an ordinary pedestrian, can seem like a mad graffiti artist's chaotic manifesto, a work of art inspired by Cy Twombly, or something reminiscent of the paintings found on the walls of caves. In any case, this is how one might decipher the code: red = electric power lines, cables, conduit and lighting cables; orange = telecommunication, alarm or signal lines, cables or conduit; yellow = natural gas, oil, steam, petroleum or other flammables; green = sewers and drain lines; blue = drinking water; purple = reclaimed water, irrigation and slurry lines; pink = temporary survey markings, unknown/unidentified facilities; white = proposed excavation limits or routes.

It's not clear to me if this Kaiser is a Special Traveler or a DeLuxe Traveler. They share the same engine.
The Kaiser-Frazer Corporation was formed in July 1945 by two successful businessmen Henry J. Kaiser (1882-1967) and Joseph W. Frazer (1892-1971).
Immediately after the war their industrial activities changed to develop and produce cars.
In the first three years the Kaiser-Frazer Corp. was quite successful. The company offered cars simultaneously under two different brand names: Frazer and Kaiser. The sub-companies shared bodies and technics.
The first cars appeared in August 1946.
New for 1949 was the Traveller Utility Sedan. This was a combination of a kind of commercial hatchback with a station wagon. The car had a back door which opened in two parts. The backseat could easily folded down to create cargo space. Industrial designer Howard "Dutch" Darrin (USA, 1897-1982) had a main influence on the styling, but the designs were revised by Robert Cadwallader.
Alex Tremulis (USA, 1914-1991) joined the design team in 1950 (after the 1948 Tucker failure).
For model year 1951 Kaiser offered a restyled Special and DeLuxe range, with a very low belt-line.
Production of the Kaiser model year 1951 started already in March 1950. This was a half year ahead of other car brands.
For 1951 and 1952 the Traveler Utility Sedan was available as two and four door version.
The Deluxe Traveler Utility Sedan replaced the 1949-50 Vagabond Utility Sedan for model year 1951.

A local power utility station in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. I like the way a long lens can flatten a scene and create a sense of chaos in an image. Here, the out of focus posts are fairly close to the camera, whereas the utility station is quite far away.
One day in June, I decided to load up a couple of old cameras with some 135 format, black and white, film. One was a Nikon FTn with a 35 mm lens that I gave to me daughters. They are seven and nine years old, and were interested in learning some photography. I loaded a Spotmatic 1 for myself. I planned to shoot the whole roll with a 300 mm lens, but some of the shots were taken with other lenses.
Check out an album containing more of my photos shot in 2018.

When I lived in Canada we had one of these cars. It was very handy for transporting things. I collect these die-cast model cars as well.
A small spaceship I imagine being some sort of exploratory vehicle operating out of a larger space station. The build was a fun vessel for messing with angles possible using cheese slopes,
One of the shots I took, and prepped as a candidate for my new entry to LEGO Ideas. Please support here: ideas.lego.com/projects/2384769b-f69c-401e-a7a3-840e96ab7156
This was one of the competitors in the Lancashire Automobile Club's annual Manchester to Blackpool Veterans and Vintage Car Run in June 1975 and is pictured in Manchester before the start of the event. It's a 1924 Trojan Utility, but I don't have any other details of the car or owner as I no longer have the programme of the event. The Trojan had a 1,527cc 4-cylinder two-stroke engine, later reduced to 1,488cc to bring it into the under 1½ litre class, but the DVLA record says that this car has a 1,141cc engine. It also has solid rubber tyres.

These Utility boxes are on a lot of the corners in Ithaca, NY and are painted by local artists.
