The cold of winter ❄️, the icicles on the lamp and snow all around made me stop for a moment and capture this beauty of warmth and cold. Shot on iPhone.
Collection Building by MVRDV Architects - opened November 2021
This public art depot for the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam NL, features exhibition halls, a sculpture roof garden and a restaurant, in addition to an enormous amount of storage space for art. The public can see what’s going on behind the scenes in a museum and private art collectors will be able to store their own collection under ideal museum conditions. The design – a reflective round volume – responds to its surroundings, Rotterdam’s Museumpark.
Collection Building is an art depot open to the public. A public route zigzags through the building, from the lobby on the ground floor where a café can be found up to an exhibition space, sculpture garden and restaurant on the roof. On the way up the route passes along and through art depots and restoration workshops. In depots visible from the route, the exhibition can be changed on a daily basis by simply moving storage racks so each visit to the building can offer a unique experience. On three floors the route passes through exhibition spaces which will be programmed by Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen.
The building - which will store the precious art collection of Rotterdam - will also have spaces not accessible to the general public. For example logistics, quarantine and room for private art collections whose owners can visit their art and even enjoy it in private spaces comparable to the art equivalent of a sky box. This is a new commercial service offered by the museum. The roof featuring a restaurant, sculpture garden and exhibition space offers wide views over Rotterdam.
The Collection Building was realised on the northern edge of Rotterdam's Museumpark, realised by OMA with Yves Brunier in 1994. In order to spare the park, the volume is designed as a compact round volume with a small footprint and will be clad with a reflective glass façade. This will make the building less visible and allow reflections, the public can see what is happening elsewhere in the park. Where needed the reflection will be lesser for transparency and to avoid unwanted light effects. 99% of the works will be visible or accessible to the public. The building will feature seven different climatic conditions facilitating ideal conditions for art storage, offices and the public. The ambition was to reach the equivalent of sustainability classification BREEAM Excellent.
Every night, after the sun sets, you can catch a beautiful light show at the Depot. A video installation called “Wasting life on you” by Swiss artist Pilotti Rist will be projected from a colourful pole beside the museum.
I noticed this truck at the top of the hill and needed to see what it was "looking" at. It was amazing how the truck paint and rust mirrored the colors of the landscape.
Trident Swansong 1980 - 1985
Here is my last Trident scan! And a very sad sight it is. An unidentified British Airways 'British' Trident 3B seen dumped in the old BEA maintenance area at London Heathrow. The aircraft is in a partially dismantled state and would have flown only about 14 years. Next door is the remains of Trident 2 G-AVFA which was being disposed of at the same time. BA Lockheed TriStar-200 G-BHBR is parked up behind the Tridents. These were the days when you could drive round the whole of the Heathrow inner perimeter road at will, and park up in various locations to grab photos :)
Possibly my only close up capture of a BA tug :)
Trident 3 run down - By the beginning of 1984, just six of the 26 Trident 3s had succumbed, these being: G-AWZA (Oct82), G-AWZE (May83), G-AWYZ, G-AWZW (Oct83), G-AWZB, G-AWZL (Nov83), Four more followed in 1984: G-AYVF (Feb84), G-AWZX (Oct84), Nov 84: G-AWZC, G-AWZZ (Nov 84). With G-AWZT having already been lost in a tragic mid-air collision in Sep76, this left just 15 to soldier on into 1985.
From the list above, this shot - taken in Jan 1984 - can only have been either: G-AWZE (b/u 1/84), G-AWYZ, G-AWZW, G-AYVF (b/u 6/84), or G-AWZA (b/u 7/84). Given the state of the aircraft, my money is on G-AWZE :)

Taken with a Soviet made Zenith TTL camera and standard lens. Scanned from the original negative. A somewhat grainy image taken when I was experimenting with some high-speed monochrome print film in the mid 1980s!

Built in 1914 as a music hall and cinema, it later became a bingo hall before falling into serious disrepair following a fire. There are still plans to revive the building but it'll take a huge amount of work to restore it to its former glory as the roof has gone and nature is reclaiming the site.
Atelier 135, Nice, France
This straight photography (no interventions except resizing it to fit the Flickr) questions , in my opinion, the ancient and everlasting photography relation of object and representation, spatially, as well as temporally-past and present . Multilayered it contains reflection of 2022 sunny street at 35 degrees C in NIce, of the street art mural referring on the well known sailor character and the stone wall. At the same time there are these cyanotype motives specially of the fish and the window that correspond with a reflection of the sailor and of the window above that picture. Finally, not as much voluntary there is part of my face and body reflecting, as in old days, the presence of the author. The intensity of foreground and background stresses the special meaning to all elements mentioned above.
Hey.. it's me universe..

The Grand Palace in Bangkok is one of the most iconic buildings in the city. Its architecture and art is simply spellbinding.
Đầu tiên / Zunächst / Foremost:
非常感谢你的这项初步工作。他们只让我有可能创造出一辆汽车作为口鼻罩。
Che miệng và mũi cũng phù hợp hơn ở đây. Thứ nhất bởi vì logic mà chính phủ Việt Nam gần đây đã thông qua luật về xe máy trên phố Vitnamese. Kết quả là luật được xác định là được cả những người phản hồi và những người ủng hộ. Và rằng một công ty Việt Nam tại Đức muốn sản xuất xe điện tại Đức vào đầu năm nay.
Giải thích:
Vì tôi không có tuốc nơ vít thích hợp để vặn ốc trong ô tô đồ chơi, nên tôi có các vật liệu / công cụ / dụng cụ sau đây, v.v. để làm miệng và nắp mũi này. :
- Hai chiếc kìm có kích thước khác nhau
- Hai kim có kích thước khác nhau
- một kim loại đã được xây dựng lại
- Một chiều dài chắc chắn không chắc chắn của sợi nhồi (cũng để nhồi)
- Một chút kiên nhẫn dù thiếu kiên nhẫn
- khoảng 10 cm dây quấn hoa , hoặc cũng 4 tấc

Diese Mund und Nasenbedeckung ist mal wieder mehr passend. Einmal wegen der Logik der Tatsache das die vietnamesische Regierung erst kürzlich ein Gesetz zu Motorrädern auf vitnamesischen Straßen erlassen hat. Das Gesetz hat somit bestimmt seine Gegner wie Befürworter. Und das eben auch eine vietnamesische Firma in Deutschland Anfang des Jahres noch Elektroautos in Deutschland fabrizieren wollte.
Zur Interpretation:
Da ich nicht den richtigen Schraubenzieher für die Schrauben im Spielzeugauto habe, habe ich folgende Materialien/Werkzeuge/Utensilien etc. verwendet, zur Schaffung dieser Mund- und Nasenabdeckung. :
- Zwei Unterschiedlich große Zangen
- Zwei Unterschiedlich große Nadeln
- Einen umfunktionierten Nadeleinfädler
- Eine gewiss ungewisse Länge an Stopfgarn (eben auch zum durchstopfen)
- Eine Prise gedult trotz ungeduldt
- circa 10 Zentimeter Blumenwickeldraht

This mouth and nose cover is once again more appropriate. Once because of the logic of the fact that the Vietnamese government has recently passed a law on motorcycles on Vietnamese roads. The law has thus determined its opponents as supporters. And that just also a Vietnamese company in Germany at the beginning of the year still wanted to fabricate electric cars in Germany.
To the interpretation:
Since I do not have the right screwdriver for the screws in the toy car, I used the following materials/tools/utensils etc., to create this mouth and nose cover. :
- Two different sized pliers
- Two different sized needles
- A converted needle threader
- A certain uncertain length of darning thread (also for darning)
- A pinch of patience despite impatience
- about 4 inch of flower wrapping wire

Many adventures were had while I tried to understand the mystery of the underwater merpeople morgue. One of these involved a chance encounter with a wandering hobbit who was socially distancing in our village pub. After many, many beers, and much talking of the toot, my diminutive, hairy-footed friend let slip that he knew of some rogue Ents that had departed Fangorn Forest in search of a new home. Apparently, they had met up with the wizard Merlin and joined him in his secret woods somewhere in middle England. Plying the little halfling with many pints of our village cider (a heady brew that is know to have killed fully growth mammoths with half a pint and strip a Morris Minor of all its paint in 37 seconds) I eventually discovered the location of this mystical place. The journey was arduous and many good people lost their lives in crossing the magical boundaries that surrounded Merlin’s lair. I, myself, was one of only three survivors. Alas, we could not stay long as our presence was felt via rumblings in the Force and the Ents had started to waken. I only manage to a get a few snaps on my trusty Nikon before we departed. Mysteriously, my SD card managed to format itself on the homeward voyage. Luckily, Pete, our chimney sweep, put me in touch with Brokkr and Eitri, the Norse dwarf blacksmith brothers, who had diversified in recent times from making golden treasures for the Aesir and set up an online IT Helpdesk service. With their canny computer knowhow and knowledge of the dark arts, they managed to retrieve this solitary image from my camera.
The remains of misfortunate adventurers are clearly visible within the pixels. But how many can you tally?
This picture I made for the contest on the official LEGO Russia account. Actually, I made two pictures - on the smartphone and on camera, the first one being easier to quickly upload on the social network, but since my phone is a phone and NOT a camera, it was low quality, so I took the second one on my Nikon exclusively for Flickr.
The contest was not a photo contest, though. It was a post contest, so you needed to write about how you use Lego to get rid of stress. My answer is art creation. I wrote a big post about it.
My grandfather painted landscapes in oil, my mother draws well, but I can't draw, although I always wanted to learn. And I learned but in a different way. I create the images that I want to but can't draw from LEGO, both in the form of photographs and in the form of digital renders. My photos are not the builds in the classical sense - I do not build big objects as builders do, and I usually have no brick-built backgrounds, because I do not strive to make everything beautiful or perfect. The main thing is to convey the idea.
I'm very emotional and I react strongly to what is happening around me. To cope with emotions (which I have a lot!) I put them into my art. Many of my photos/renders are inspired by specific events, in some, there is more than one meaning is embedded, and random details (up to the music in the description or the choice of a scene from the film) are not accidental quite often. Through creativity, I broadcast my feelings at a given moment in time and talk about what worries me: films, books, music, situations, and problems (although not all of them concern me directly). Sometimes my thoughts are expressed in a somewhat abstract way so that everyone can see something of their own, or because I can't write about the meaning directly.
And so I use my Lego to destress: I'm being angry, then I'm being angry once more, and then I figure out how to make a photo or render out of this situation. You know, they say: when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. My lemonade is even able to collect likes. xD
So why Bellatrix is the puppet? That's up to you. But yes, for me it's very personal. Besides, Bellatrix is awesome, you can check my previous tribute to her!
Aaaand this photo was technically very hard to take because I'm right-handed, and I'm doing all my shots without assistance! :) And I know it would be much easier if I used two plates to attach the strings the way real puppets have. I attached it to fingers for a reason as well! There's a purpose behind every detail...
