Two back profiles of KSRTC. One the left is a premium class - the Super Deluxe Air Bus, and on the right is the common man's Super Fast! Wish some sense prevailed in the body building shops..
Haven't been shooting in a while work, family and other aspects of life have been keeping me away from shutter therapy. I decided to give 28mm another shot and found the Coolpix A for a great price at Fm forums, I had the Ricoh GR which I loved but sold off a while back was actually going to reacquire the GR again but got such a great price on this one that I couldn't pass up a solid camera indeed and the menus felt right at home because one of the very first DSLR I had was a D40 and Nikon's menus felt consistent.
A bit of erosion and a flat roofed building seen from the bus on the way from the border into Shenzhen.
With this muslin, there is a large fold happening across my middle/upper back that was new.
I already stuck a pin in there to mark this change for the next round. The fold extends the whole way across my back and even into the arms.
Before cutting another muslin, I’m going to stitch it closed (like a giant tuck/dart) and see what happens to the rest of the bodice.
Spotted some decent locations by my work... Just was waiting for a day to work...

Rangers work tirelessly to protect some of the world's most endangered species like tigers, elephants and rhinos, which are also among the most widely targeted wildlife by poachers for the illegal wildlife trade.
Please support WWF's Back a Ranger project, which helps rangers get the equipment, training, resources and infrastructure they need to stop wildlife crime.

I have never liked this and the poor lady looks very uncomfortable with no support for her back.
Some tourist guides and reviews describe this as being located in the Croppies Acre or the Croppy's Acre when it is in fact located in a very small park named the "Croppies Memorial Park" which is located closer the the Sean Heuston Bridge. Some argue that the distinction is not important as they are separate sections of the same park. But having encountered many tourists who failed to locate Anna Livia I believe that it is important to be aware that there are two parks or two distinct separate sections.
The larger park was closed to the public for many years and it was until recently managed by the Office of Public Works. My understanding is that the smaller park was always managed by Dublin City Council but they are now responsible for both parks but opening hours are different as one is open 24 hours every day.
Anna Livia is a bronze monument located in Croppies Memorial Park in Dublin, Ireland. It was formerly located on O'Connell Street.
Designed by the sculptor Éamonn O'Doherty, the monument was commissioned by businessman Michael Smurfit, in memory of his father, for the Dublin Millennium celebrations in 1988.
The monument is a personification of the River Liffey (Abhainn na Life in Irish) which runs through the city. Anna Livia Plurabelle is the name of a character in James Joyce's Finnegans Wake who also embodies the river. In the monument's original location, the river was represented as a young woman sitting on a slope with water flowing past her. Dubliners nicknamed it the Floozie in the Jacuzzi, a nickname that was encouraged by the sculptor.
The official was that the monument was removed from its site on O'Connell Street in 2001 to make room for the Spire of Dublin. However, it is most likely that it was move because it was a magnet for litter and anti-social behaviour. Also, the original structure was badly constructed a it was described by many as “crude” and “provincial”. Worse still it was not nearly as popular as some would have you believe.
In late February 2011, partly reworked and refurbished, the statue was relocated to Croppies Memorial Park next to the Liffey, near Heuston station.

Just had to add this one showing the grace of the old harbor-cranes vs. the new-interpretations across the way.
I'm going to have to go back to get one with the arm of the crane as well. It was a hurried job.
In the background one sees the harbor-office.
