This box is decorated with a tessellation molecule representing the letter Z. Though it may not be obvious from its looks, this design is closely related to the Woven Triangles family. It uses an 8×8 grid for the molecule (12×12 for the whole box). Folding it from the grid
is relatively challenging due to a closed sink used for creating the diagonal stroke. Folding cleanly from a precrease without the grid comes with its own challenges, as usual. On the back of the molecule, an interesting pattern of two triangles emerges.

DIN A4 collapsible, corrugated-cardboard boxes, these are tough, resilient, sustainable! and colour coded in black and white! - so you can tell bottoms from tops. – racist little fukkers.

Our 52 week group has a Red theme for this week (at my suggestion). Took this photo outside my local post office after my weekly trip sending off various CDs/records I've sold on Discogs during the week (I've given up on eBay). Lots more for sale still if anyones interested..... www.discogs.com/seller/stevenkemp/profile
Another photo from the Chapel Hill Camera Club light box workshop. I placed one of my colorful ornaments on top of the open rose petals.

Another image for my current project photographing people inside a box and then outside. This is Pixie.
These two vintage cameras have recently joined my rapidly expanding collection. The one on the left (a Kodak Six-20 'Brownie' E) was made between 1947 and 1953. The one on the right (an Ensign ‘All-distance Twenty’) was made between 1922 and 1932. It's incredible to think it might be nearly 100 years old and yet it's survived in near mint condition. I'm not sure it was ever used.

sorry to have gone AWOL recently... I've been charging around, spending more time on trains than I'd ever imagined possible, and getting ready to move house. From Suffolk to Scotland, and we're off in three weeks. In the maelstrom of packing and sorting, there will probably be few pictures for the next month. If I can squeak a few more in before I pack up the dev tank and scanner, who knows...
But I wanted to post an old picture anyway. I missed my starting-pinhole-anniversary, which was about ten days ago, but this picture was taken one year ago. An hour sitting still by the back door wasn't such a big deal as it sounds: back then I couldn't walk. That's why I started pinhole photography in the first place: the pace suited me.
It's been an incredible year, as I've found my way into this insane love affair with lensless photography. I've learned how to develop film, and print normal silver, van dyke, and platinum (ooh, and pt/pd is pretty). I've had work shown in an exhibition, pictures featured in "black and white photography" magazine, and prints sold.
And I wanted to thank you guys for all your support and encouragement. So, thank you!
Part of an exhibit by artist Michael Walsh at the Bermuda National Gallery that reminded me of a hit by Pete Seeger. The words and music of "Little Boxes" were written by Malvina Reynolds in 1962, and it served as a protest song.
"Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes made of ticky tacky,
Little boxes on the hillside,
Little boxes all the same.
There's a green one and a pink one
And a blue one and a yellow one,
And they're all made out of ticky tacky
And they all look just the same." etc.
One of Scotland's more modern but also short lived signal boxes, Hunterston Junction.
The signal box was built in 1978 to a standard Scottish Region Relay Room design with signalman's area combined. It opened with the commissioning of the short branch off the Largs line into the British Steel High Level Loading Terminal. The new facility built by British Steel allowed iron ore and coal to be rapid loaded to trains direct from conveyors at the Hunterston deep water port replacing what had previously been done at General Terminus Docks on the Clyde in Glasgow. The box opened on 2/4/1978 but initially only controlled movements within the High Level terminal complex and trains running on the 3 mile branch to and from Hunterston Low Level in conjunction with Hunterston BSC Control Tower in the port. It wasn't until 20/7/1986 that it was fully commissioned as a block post on the Largs passenger line when track rationalisation ahead of the electrification of the line resulted in adjacent boxes closing at Fairlie and Holm Junction. Hunterston Junction box ceased to function as signal box when Paisley PSB took over the route on 28//8/1992 when it was down graded to a Ground Frame. So a relatively short life of six years as a fully fledged signal box. It remained in situ controlling access to the High Level Sidings only, being manned by BR yard staff then EWS after privatisation but not in a signalling capacity. With the cessation of coal traffic in 2015 it saw a further downgrade to an unmanned relay room as the branch to the high level was mothballed.
All of the reflections & funky colors are the gardens...I took these at the doorwall and it's very sunny :)
I received a package from my friend Ashley today! I decided to share what she wrote on the box, some words, names, expressions that mean something to each of us.
I can't believe I've known her for more than a year already and that I met her randomly on the internet. And she's coming over in June/July! Can't wait!
Another pic taken from the coaler with the 4F passing on a freight for Stourton off the Aire Valley route as a Peak reverses to go on shed past Engine Shed Junction signal box.
I developed some very expired 110 and 126 film for someone, and helped with a 35mm point-and-shoot, getting a new battery installed and donating and loading a fresh roll of film. I offered to develop and scan the film once she was done also. These were also brought in.
This box had one 110, one 127, and three 126's cameras; unfortunately, I told her shooting these would be difficult, since film for these would be hard to get and develop, so best to use 35mm. For the most part, I think these can go to someone who wants decorative pieces or props.

I think I needed a bit more time and agitation on this roll, and to be honest, I used Foma 400 developing time, because I think this Flic Film Ultrapan 400 is re-spooled Foma.
OK, so the Red Box Project (www.flickr.com/photos/puckpics/albums/72157663674756954) is largely about the variations and situations where GPO Red Boxes and there equivalents are installed.
These may be planters in a garden center, but they are still red boxes created in homage to Sir Giles Gilbert Scott's seminal 1924 design.

Two boxes I recently made. This one is made of Zebrano (aka Zebra wood) with the ribbon/handle made of walnut and maple.
The other box is Here
"Commissioned by Bacardi, and completed in 1975, the Jewel Box is a rare example of Miami Modern architecture.
Designed by Igancio Carrera-Justiz, the Jewel Box hovers forty-seven feet above ground on Biscayne Boulevard. The colorful glass mosaic walls on all four sides of the building are based on designs by German artist Johannes Dietz. Each side depicts the rum-making process: how stalks of sugar cane are converted into molasses.
Its vibrant glamor and vivid extravagance is highlighted during the morning sun, and emphasized at night with strong, hot ceiling lights." Aimee Rubensteen
When there was a lull in the fighting on the front in the war between Finland and the Soviet Union, soldiers made this kind of wooden boxes.

At 180 feet down, Box Canyon is a deep and narrow gorge in Mount Rainier NP from which the Cowlitz River flows. The paved trail here is a little treacherous in wet weather: steep and bumpy, but plans to redo the trail are evident by the construction equipment here. Purple wildflowers were blooming where the mist was kicked up, but behind roped off areas, so I didn’t venture there. I was a little nervous taking these shots, as the best view is looking over the rain-slicked, dry rotted railing and looking straight down, but fortunately, the landscape photography gods were kind to me and I did not lose my camera gear in the abyss.

Detail of Broomfield House on the Chicksand Estate, a modernist social housing estate in Bethnal Green. Built in the early to mid 1960s.
Origami box with Lucky Star molecule. The molecule can be tessellated and is based on hexagonal 8×8×8 grid.
I called it this way because I was happy about this design which I find quite elegant. Even though I have seen some similar ideas (e.g. by Alessandro Beber and Peter Keller), I wasn't able find proof of anyone creating exactly the same design before, so if it really is new, I will feel lucky to have found it. If I do learn of someone folding it before, I will still feel lucky to have reinvented it.
Update: I learned that the molecule is structurally almost the same as Day and Night Tessellation by Haligami, the only difference being how the rays of the star are locked.
The cake I did for my son's 1st bday. First time doing this design (inspired by Rouvelee @ Rouvelee's Creations and Dot @ Cupcakes by Design , Pastrychick)
