The Crazy Horse Memorial is a mountain monument complex that is under construction on privately held land in the Black Hills, in Custer County, South Dakota. When finished, it is expected to be 641 feet long and 563 feet high. It is the largest mountain carving in progress. The sculpture in progress is of the Lakota warrior Chief Crazy Horse astride a stallion with his arm and pointed hand stretched out over the horse's mane. It's taking awhile. The Crazy Horse Memorial — taller than the Washington Monument and well over two football fields wide — has been 64 years in the making. And problems in the underlying rock are now forcing the sculptors to deviate from the original model. Sculptor Korczak Ziolkowski began the project 1948.
Unfortunately I have seen no change in the appearance for many years. We no longer visit the memorial as you can park on the road outside and see just as much.
Where have all the islands gone? Washed away by rising seas!
This year this bungalow and all the sand in front of was washed away during a large swell and big tide. Power is generated on another island and most local people are unaware of how it is generated, nor the need for renewable energy. How long will it be until all the buildings near the ocean are washed away?
The other problem:
Plastic waste is a huge problem on Nusa Lembongan, Indonesia. We need to work together to reduce and recycle plastic.

Celebration of Change 2013: 30 Years of Phenomenal Women took place Saturday, March 30, 2013 at the Wendy Williamson Auditorium at University of Alaska Anchorage, and celebrated 30 years of this annual women's show which was first staged on September 18, 1983 at the Red Ram Motor Lodge at 6th & C in Anchorage (now the location of Dami Japanese Restaurant).
Celebration of Change is an annual show by (and fundraiser for) Radical Arts for Women (RAW), a lesbian and feminist philanthropic organization which funds Alaskan women art projects. It is respectfully an all-women produced and performed show aimed to give Alaskan women a venue to learn skills in event production and encourage their individual artistic talents.

This is still life type shot I created in my dining/games room for a photographic competition at my local camera club. It's meant to represent rather bleakly the changing childhood of today, namely outdoor actvities giving way to the games consoles. Fortunately my two lads still remain activite despite having a games console.
Ex London Country RS108 (APM 108T) is seen here in Scarborough in 1989. It carried Easey Travel, March, livery but had recently been purchased by Hircocks' Upwell and District.
Changed the Hetres to Pari Motos (the Hetres lasted >4000 miles!), ripped the pockets off the sides of the bag, replaced Candy pedals with Eggbeater 11s.
You can't see it here, but I'm also using a top secret 50 g 650B tube. So far they've gone 1600 miles without a puncture, the last 400-500 under the delicate Pari Motos.
I haven't been posting because my brain is tied up in redecorating the bedroom. This duvet cover from Dwell Studio caught my eye while I was at Target the other day and started the whole process. My previous photo must have been my inspiration- probably because I was so excited it made Explore the image was stuck in my brain. I have lots to finish up and will post more photos when it's completed. :)
A change-over complete, the relief driver prepares to start out as two others sit and await their charges at Brandon Terrace, Canonmills. This has been the change-over point for Lothian's service 27 since 1969, and more recently for service 23.
Gemini 357 is part of a newish batch of vehicles delegated to services 4, 5, 19, 23 and 27 though in reality can be found on any route as the enthusiasm for 'branded buses' has somewhat diminished in recent times. The driver will go north past the Botanic Gardens to the typically suburban Silverknowes, where after a lay-over he'll return on the uphill climb to the city and onwards to Hunter's Tryst.
Ömrümce hep adım adım
Her yerde seni aradım
Ben kalbimden başka yerde
İnan seni bulamadım
Kenarlarda köşelerde
Kadehlerde şişelerde
Ben kalbimden başka yerde
İnan seni bulamadım

Old buildings associated with the fishing industy were often painted with red ochre, hydrated iron oxide -- deposits of the pigment occur naturally around the island of Newfoundland, and it was mixed with fish oil* to make paint. These red buildings abound on Change Islands off Newfoundland's coast.
*According to Wikipedia: The dry ingredient, ochre, was mixed with some type of liquid raw material to create a rough paint. The liquid material was usually seal oil or cod liver oil in Newfoundland and Labrador, while Scandinavian recipes sometimes called for linseed oil. Red ochre paint was sometimes prepared months in advance and allowed to sit, and the smell of ochre paint being prepared is still remembered by many today.
Variations in local recipes, shades of ore, and type of oil used resulted in regional variations in color. Because of this, it is difficult to pinpoint an exact shade or hue of red that would be considered the traditional “fishing stage red”. Oral tradition in the Bonavista Bay area maintains that seal oil would give a purer red color, while cod liver oil would give a “foxy” color, browner in hue.

Studio 26 - photo video.
I'm sorry, studio 26 members, I had to pick this one as my final challenge item. With just two items to chose from, it was pretty easy to pick my favorite, as the other one is mostly a walk through an old house.
