Der 1911 eröffnete St. Pauli-Elbtunnel – in Abgrenzung zum seit 1975 bestehenden Neuen Elbtunnel auch Alter Elbtunnel genannt – unterquert die Norderelbe auf einer Länge von 426,5 Metern und verbindet mit zwei Tunnelröhren die nördliche Hafenkante bei den St. Pauli-Landungsbrücken (Nordeingang) mit der Elbinsel Steinwerder (Südeingang). Er wird als öffentlicher Verkehrsweg sowohl von Fußgängern und Radfahrern als auch eingeschränkt von Kraftfahrzeugen genutzt. Er galt bei seiner Eröffnung als technische Sensation, steht seit 2003 unter Denkmalschutz und wurde am 7. September 2011 von der Bundesingenieurkammer und der Hamburgischen Ingenieurkammer-Bau mit dem Titel Historisches Wahrzeichen der Ingenieurbaukunst in Deutschland ausgezeichnet.

The largest church in the world the Vatican contains many side alters that routinely have a mass in progress. Priests and bishops come from all over the world to say a mass here in the most holy of cathedrals. This is just one that was empty as I passed.
I'm starting to shoot film - this shot is from my first ever roll (unaltered and uncropped). Altered Landscape series is an oxymoron of sorts - capturing reality on film, but making it surreal...
Alter Elbtunnel der Freien und Hansestadt Hamburg.
Old Elbtunnel of the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg.
My first altered Altoid tin made for the Wicked Circus Altered Altoid Tin Swap on craftster.org. The exterior is mostly painted polymer clay, the trailer is balsa wood.
This is one of the first books I made. I used pieces leftover from other projects. The tags were re-used from another project I made, when I was doing demos at Michael's Craft store.

The Old Elbe Tunnel was completed in 1911. The tunnel is 426m long and runs 24 m beneath the Elbe river.
The tunnel was built to help thousands of workers cross the river to get to and fro from work.
The tunnel walls are decorated with glazed terra cotta ornaments displaying items related to the Elbe river. While mostly fish or crabs, a few show different items like waste and rats, too.
The wonderful crafty_dame sent me lots of fantastic papers in the mail, so I've been experimenting with using only collage on my spreads. The postcard in the centre is a page by itself. I love the way the red head peaks over the top!
Einer meiner Lieblingsbäume in meiner Nähe ist diese alte Eiche. Sie steht ganz nah zum ehemaligen Standort von Haus Heyde, einem Rittergut, das in den 1960´er Jahren leider komplett geschleift wurde. Nur die alten Baumriesen im ehemaligen Park und im nahen Umfeld zeugen noch von einem Ort mit viel Geschichte.
On 31 December and 13 January, «Old New Year's Eve», the «Chläuse» make their way around the Appenzell hinterland. The origin and meaning of this ancient custom are the subject of speculation, because few written documents exist.

So, still on the trip of posting stuff I've been meaning to post for a while. I'm enjoying it I must say. Clearing the decks so to speak, at least a little, whilst I slowly march my way through a whole heap of editing and sorting. Egads those photo things can get out of control if one isn't careful!
This'll be the last post for a few days though, so I hope all y'all enjoy it.
Alter Südfriedhof - München
The Alter Südfriedhof (Old South Cemetery) also known as "Alter Südlicher Friedhof" is a cemetery in Munich, Germany. It was founded by Duke Albrecht V as a plague cemetery in 1563 about half a kilometer south of the Sendlinger Gate between Thalkirchner and Pestalozzistraße.
The cemetery was established in 1563, during the reign of Albert V, Duke of Bavaria, for victims of the plague and located outside the city gates. It was also the burial ground of the dead from the Sendling uprising of 1705, in which over 1100 were killed after they had surrendered to the troops of Joseph I, Holy Roman Emperor. From 1788 to 1867 it was the single collective burial ground for the dead of the city.
The cemetery today serves as an Art and Cultural history monument, and is open to the public as an official Munich park. Most of the monuments, which suffered from exposure to weather and pollution, have been renovated and cleaned, in a three-year project (2004–2007). The St. Stephan's church has also been renovated.
