A spare truck on the trash collection route in my area this week. Nice to see an ex-Veolia green unit once more. It still remains to be seen what will happen to these older ex-Veolia units once WM starts integrating with existing Advanced operations at the Saint Paul yard.

Entitled The Great Wall Of China [1907] H Ponting. [RESTORED] I repaired spots and small defects, adjusted contrast, tonality, and adding a sepia tone.
Ponting's placement of a person (or in this case, persons) somewhere in the foreground was a de rigueur photographic technique of the day. It was done primarily to add a human element and to provide a sense of scale to the scene.
The Great Wall of China 萬里長城 is a misnomer (at least in its English translation, the Chinese meaning is more along the lines of "ten thousand Li long city"). It would be more accurate to describe it as the Great Walls of China, as they are the remnants from a historic series of stone and earthen barriers. Erected throughout northern China, they were mostly built and revised over two thousand years between the 5th century BC and the 16th century. Origins of each wall section from various times were contingent upon their political and military needs in accordance to their dynastic periods.
The oldest, original walls were constructed for the purposes of protecting against Xiongnu nomadic incursions into the areas occupied by the various disparate states that were to later form China. After the Qin consolidation, these separate structures were then integrated into an almost continuous whole, mostly using rammed earth structures. Unfortunately, little of that wall actually exists today. The majority of the wall that still remains (ie the one that we have generally come to know) was built during the Ming dynasty, which relied more heavily on integration of brick and masonry work. History, legends and myths about the Great Wall abound. In the last hundred year or so, industrialization and modernization of the areas which the wall passes through has endangered it as entire sections were destroyed to reclaim construction materials. Other sections were refurbished, in some cases rebuilt using modern engineering, and have seen heavy use as tourist attractions; still others have been entirely overgrown or reclaimed by nature. Reportedly, less than 30 percent of the wall remains intact. Nevertheless, it is considered to be one of the most important historic constructions of man and specific parts of it was listed since 1987 as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
The present wall starts from Shanhaiguan, dipping into the Bohai Sea in the east, and ends at Xinjiang's Lop Nur in the west, following along the southern border of the Chinese province of Inner Mongolia. The most comprehensive survey to date has determined that the wall as currently recognized covers a distance of 8,851.8 km (or 5,500.3 miles), consisting of 6,259.6 km (3,889.5 miles) actual wall, combined with various other structures like trenches and natural defensive barriers of impassable hills and rivers. Contrary to popular myth, you cannot see the wall from outer space or the moon.
The Great Wall varies from tourist trap (like the section at Badaling, near Beijing) to extreme, off the beaten path wilderness. Certain sections are so dangerous that it would be suicidal to attempt ascending unless one has special climbing equipment with a technical and advanced mountaineering support team. Try as I might, I was not able to gather any real statistics on Great Wall related accidents or deaths, which is unusual as every tourist location has accidents. In any case, I suspect that the PRC government doesn't really want to keep such statistics to begin with.
In another forum dedicated to just information about the Great Wall, one writer told of how one tourist was killed, and offered some safety tips:

She was sent out to take a look into the dark auras located in the cemetery. Entering through the dilapidated fence gates, the pressure was immediate. This place was definitely eerie, but not just in a metaphysical way, it was definitely... manifesting!
A zombie had appeared. "This is going to be a pain." as she rolled her eyes, accompanied by a disappointing sigh, dusted off her tome, and began chanting the incantation. An irregular magic binding circle illuminates the ground, the zombie is locked in the area. More groans, moans, and grunts echo the tenebrous field.
"So annoying, I am so not in the mood to deal with this, bye!". She writes down some words on a sticky note, sticks it to the wall, and she casually walks out the gates, as the population of undead grow behind her. The note reads: "Beware of people with skin issues.".

Greek Special Forces group 'Alpha' raided major Turkish cities today. A small detachment discovered advanced weaponry and bio-weapons in a secret laboratory deep underground. Anthypolochagos (Second Lieutenant) Alexander Chaconas said this: "It was both fortunate and unfortunate that we stumbled upon this lab, for we now realize that the world is not what we thought it was. This place, and others like it, must be destroyed along with their rulers."

This is one of those builds where I like some individual bits, but not the entire thing. Still, I thought that this could be worthy of a post, so there you go.
The part sticking out of the windscreen is 30602, for the sake of greebling. Not much else to say here to be honest...

I was offered the opportunity to write a tutorial for Advanced Photoshop magazine back in January... at last it's been published.
The tutorial uses my WLTB™ urban flat shot to educate and inspire fellow Photoshop users into generating their very own architectural abstract images.
It's quite complicated... so don't say I didn't warn you :-)
ON SALE NOW :-D
I was approched by Advanced Photographer to feature my work in the portfolio section and to use some images in the technique article of the magazine, which has been released today. This has been a great experience for me and a whole new learning experience too!
It still seems a bit crazy that after 6 months messing around at this light painting lark I find myself here. So a big thanks to all the like minded nocturnal lightpainters that hang out on flickr for the constant niceness that comes my way. And a massive thanks to Charlotte and the team at Advanced Photographer for the opportunity to feature my work.
I have put the PDF's on my website and these can be seen in the about me section here:
