Its interesting how all the businesses in the background to this picture have all gone, and many no longer trade. Some would say that the connection here is that with the closure of this part of the road to traffic, and a lack of parking in town, or having to pay for it has helped cause this decline. No doubt this has been repeated throughout the country. I never thought when taking this photo that I would be recording social change as well as the change to the buses.
A Snoopy is followed by an earlier Transit through the bottom of Union Street, Torquay in 1988.
Shops have changed as follows, from the furthest to nearest:
Marks & Spencer is now Primark
Woolworths is now H&M
Peter Lord is now The Carphone Warehouse
Stead & Simpson is now Clintons Cards
Etam is now a 99p Store and
John Menzies is now W H Smith's
While my husband ran 105 km. I had lots of opportunity and time to capture beauty along the way. (you can congratulate him on my stream... :-) )
The searchlights at Burke siding near Savanna have fallen, as witnessed by a BNSF stack train led by 4449.
The Queen Elinor transforming doll from the Disney Store. You don't actually have to put her in the bear suit, it works fine on its own. But I guess if kids were acting out the story, it would be fun to put her in the suit.

One of the coolest parts of a Sichuan Opera is Bian Lian 变脸; literally "Face-Changing". It is an ancient Chinese dramatic art that is part of the more general Sichuan opera. Performers wear brightly colored costumes and move to quick, dramatic music. They also wear vividly colored masks, which they change within a fraction of a second.
Below you can see a video my wife took from the performance. Needless to say it was cooler in real life!
Also, I stole the above description from wikipedia XD

That goes for the queen's guard as well!
Changing of the guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace in London.
Unfortunately I didn't have much time to really have a good look around this new shopping/dining development called One New Change. I had to wait a few minutes to get into this central position to get this shot and then I sat down and waited for the passage to be free of people wandering. I blended 5 shots in HDR Efex Pro to create this.
Afterwards I took the lift to the top floor where there's a bar/cafe and was amazed at this rooftop haven. People were just relaxing up here in the afternoon sunshine and absorbing the view of the London skyline. The sun was too harsh to get any photos from up there, I must go another day in the am or at sunset because the view had all the famous landmarks like the Shard, London Eye and St. Pauls cathedral.
Since the trail along Change Creek leads to some of my favorite hiking trails, I often photograph this spot. This is the first time I have seen the creek frozen.
Here is another image of the Ferris Wheel with the fancy light set-up. The guy who said it keeps changing was right. Just about every shot I took is different.
I have to provide service to all my cleaning customers daily, so being served as the customer is quite the change for me!.
Climate activists gathered in front of the ExxonMobil international headquarters to give them our red line message.
[...] Men do change, and change comes like a little wind that ruffles the curtains at dawn, and it comes like the stealthy perfume of wildflowers hidden in the grass [...]

The Selkie sponge applicator dipped in icy water didn't really work to change the hair. So I submerged it, which worked great. It went from orange to this red. None of the color changes are very drastic, but they're still cool.

The London, Brighton and South Coast Railway (LB&SCR) A1 Class is an English class of 0-6-0T steam locomotive. Designed by William Stroudley, 50 members of the class were built in 1872 and between 1874 and 1880, all at Brighton Works. The class has received several nicknames, initially being known as "Rooters" by their south London crews. However, the engines were more famously known as "Terriers" on account of the distinctive 'bark' of the exhaust beat.
W11’s working life was originally in the London area, based at Battersea Shed, in 1901 it was used assisting with sea defence works at Newhaven. In 1901, having been declared surplus to requirements, she was purchased by the Isle of Wight Central Railway. As part of the deal, she was overhauled at Brighton Works, repainted in IWCR livery and given the number 11. She was transferred to the Island on 8 January 1902.
She passed onto the Southern Railway in 1923 she was renumbered as W11 and in 1930 was given the name ‘Newport’.
In April 1946 she was taken out of use and stored, being shipped back to the mainland on 22 February 1947, for overhaul at Eastleigh Works. Ownership changed again in 1948 to British Railways under the No. 32640 and continued to be active along the South Coast working the Hayling Island branch, the Kent and East Sussex Railway and spells at Brighton, St Leonard’s and Newhaven. Final withdrawal from service came on 27 September 1963.
A1X (Terrier) Class 0-6-0T No. W11 ‘Newport’ (32640), (2640) (40 ‘Brighton’) designed by William Stroudley, built in 1878 at Brighton Works. Rebuilt to A1X in 1918’

i only have about 5 minutes to type this, so i'll come back and add more later--maybe.
my second graders are doing an incredible job on these lil "heidelberg houses". i used ideas by jenn (thanks!!) in atlanta to use up a ton of popsicle sticks.
i decided to focus on The Heidelberg Project as an inspiration--and especially the idea of "change".
The kids really got into it and I am sooooo happy w/ the results. the classroom teachers are on board and doing writing/reading about Heidelberg, AND......we are hoping to win a field trip from Target so we can go in the spring. Yay!
i'll post more of the houses later. now off to prep for 1st grade.
Thistles always catch my eyes. There is just something about their spiky bodies, and then the various changes of their lives, that speak to my soul. I loved how these two were captured so close together and yet in such different stages of life. I think it is always healthy to have different ages of people in your life. You miss out on so much, if you shut out any age from interacting with you. Sometimes that means we need to take a bit more effort, in making the time for someone, who may be young or old, or in a physical hardship. Whatever age you are, I pray you will be enriched by others of all ages, and that your heart will be full to overflowing from the wonders they bring into your life. God bless you all.
