Glass block, part of curved wall of central stairwell of Museo de Ciencias Naturales y Antropologicas, Parque General San Martin, Mendoza, Argentina. November 2007
My parents at the holocaust monument, Berlin.
Taken with Canon AE-1 analog camera. Kodak Elitechrome 400 film (five and a half years expired). Cross processed as color negative.
No post-editing. Negative scanned with Epson Perfection V500 Photo, cropped and downsized for the web.
This time I added some lace at the bottom of the mushroom, and I think that really does something for it!
I tried to sharpen this picture some, to make the details more visible, since my cell phone takes such poopie pictures. Tomorrow my shiny new 14 megapixel camera comes in, and I'll be able to take much better photos then!
Made from a free tutorial at www.artisania.wordpress.com
Thanks for the free pattern Sonja!
I bought this one in 2019. Overall nice block - not as crisp as LEGO but OK. However the stickers were horrible and don't stick well especially curved areas - so need some clear tape to fix them properly. Anyway, I love Flying Tigers so all is forgiven!
Here is the my Santa I made for my block. He is not complete at this moment.. but he is cute. Only missing his eyes.

Oh Chicago: the windy city, the city of big shoulders, the second city is always first in my heart. How do I love thee?
The hot dogs and the bike paths! The blues and the theater, the optimism, the casserole-heavy potlucks! The bootleggery, meat-packery, Great Fire-y historical charm! Olmstead and Obama! Oprah and International Mr. Leather! But more than that, Chicago, I love that charmingly flat inflection that greets me every time I wait for the train:
"ATTENTION CUSTOMERS: AN INBOUND TRAIN, TOWARD THE LOOP, WILL BE ARRIVING SHORTLY."
Joy! Rapture! Public transit!

We had a tree come down so we are making the best of it. I have been chopping up limbs to make natural blocks for the kiddos.
The experimental canted valve heads for the DZ302 Chevy small block are a fascinating piece of automotive history! Developed for Trans Am racing in 1968, these heads were ahead of their time, showing Chevy's commitment to maximizing performance. The ability to reach around 450 HP, especially with track-ready modifications, speaks volumes about the potential of this design.
It's interesting to see how the canted valve configuration was a precursor to the success of the Mk IV big block, showcasing Chevy's engineering foresight. The inclusion of the Cross-Ram intake on the prototype adds another layer of coolness to the setup!
It’s a shame this didn’t make it into production; it could have changed the landscape of small block performance. What do you think the impact would have been if these heads had become mainstream?
