Hey all,
Here's my first entry into this years CCC! When I saw the categories, I knew I had to build at least for the circus category, as I liked that one a lot.
I hope to be able to make 6 entries, as the master-builder prize is quite tempting, although I'm absolutely unsure if it's realistic...
As for the build itself, I'm quite pleased with how it turned out... The tents were quite challenging, as they are 6- and 10-sided shapes. I was able to close the gaps really well imho...
I hope you enjoy this build as well, and stay tuned for more entries!

Hello, all! I have been working on this build for the past couple days, and I'm quite pleased with the way that it has turned out. It was greatly inspired by one of Ian Spacek's builds. Thanks to Simon Liu and Hacim Bricks for critiquing it. It wouldn't be the same build without their input.

Built for the medieval dungeon category of the Colossal Castle Contest. I hope a more fantasy feel is accepted.
The Civilian Conservation Corps built some rock cabins in the 1930's to shelter passing travelers in Valley of Fire State Park, Nevada. The beautiful color is from the native sandstone in the area. Now the cabins are in a picnic area. This photo was taken in 1995 on slide film and scanned to create a digital file.

Thanks to Steve Skinner (www.flickr.com/photos/steveskinner) for always pushing me to excel in my photography. He's patiently waited for years for me to make the switch to Canon and I'm glad I did. After a quick trip to Yosemite I got a chance to use it a little. The weather was less than ideal....high 80's daytime, 60's at night and not a cloud in the sky. With such horrid conditions, we came home early.

These are not some restored structures from centuries ago but built by the Civilian Conservation Corps from the matching local rock during the 1930's to house workers in the area. From 1933 to 1942 the CCC over the course of it's existence employed over two an half million of mostly young men to work in over in over 4500 different camps planting trees, building roads etc. So many of the roads and some structures in our federal and state parks were built by CCC workers.
I used a 10 stop ND filter to blur the clouds on this windy day giving the shot the feel I was looking for.
Built by the Civilian Conservation Corps in 1935-36, this building fits right in with the natural surroundings of Pokagon State Park. See: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CCC_Shelter

"CCC Boys" camp interpretive sign at the Upper Falls overlook at Gooseberry Falls State Park. The camp was located to the left of the Upper Falls.
The "CCC Boys" basically developed this whole park, and many more parks, waysides, roads and other things that we have taken for granted for many years.
Gooseberry Falls State Park is located in Castle Danger, north of Two Harbors, Minnesota.
Whether on a computer or a phone, you should be able to enlarge this image to a point where you can read what the sign says. I have kept this one at its full resolution.
Me: Are you still mad?
Quinne: Nope not at all.
Me: Oh good....are you up to something?
Quinne: Nope.
Me: Are you lying?
Quinne: I'll guess you'll find out, now won't you?

My 10th entry into the CCCXIII.
I really like how this is all one color of build with exception of the figs.
Please enjoy!
The Civilian Conservation Corps built this picnic shelter in the 1930s, long before Congress established Theodore Roosevelt National Park in 1978.
Much of the park has its origins in a Depression-era program that purchased marginal and submarginal lands as a form of relief to ranchers and farmers facing bankruptcy from the agricultural depression. Some of those lands ended up in the national grassland system, including the Little Missouri National Grassland. Other lands ended up as part of the national park, which is mostly surrounded by Little Missouri NG.
