My dad changing a tire on his 1922 Dodge Business Coupe. He carried a leather case with a large set of tools. This was probably taken before I was born, but it was the first car I drove. The spare looks to be a new Goodyear.
As I recall, these tires were 32 x 3+. The car had only rear wheel brakes. I remember Dad telling me some tires lasted onlty 5,000 miles.
I watched you change
Into a fly
I looked away
You were on fire
I watched a change in you
It's like you never had wings
Now you feel so alive
I've watched you change

I put all my small change (1p, 2p and 5p) in this jar - It's nearly full now, I wonder what I can afford to buy with it?
Oh it has been a crazy two weeks at work and my brain didn't have time or energy to do anything more creative than this. I fell out my back slider with the camera and shot the first thing I saw...fall leaves...but at least I didn't miss another week!!!

What are you changing?
Who do you think you're changing?
You can't change things, we're all stuck in our ways
It's like trying to clean the ocean
What do you think you can drain it?
Well it was poison and dry long before you came.

Today was a WTF day. I lost. I fought damn hard for my client, and I still lost. The Powers That Be turned out in droves against my client. Days like today make me want to give up, but then I just get angry at myself for wanting to give up. I'll never give up; instead I'll listen to Jenny Lewis at full volume and sing at the top of my lungs.
FGR -- I'm sorry, this is all I can muster. We're having guests for dinner so my time is limited, and the handy tutorials offered in the group aren't geared for Paintshop Pro (except for one about fancy cards), so I looked this one up on my own. Here's the tutorial. It's easy peasy.

Climate Corporate Governance for Financial Institutions - Building resilience to climate change risk
During the past decade, with extreme weather causing hundreds of USD billions of
losses per year and the changing climate intensifying the adverse effects of wasteful
practices, environmental considerations have overtaken economic concerns as the
main sources of global risk, according to the World Economic Forum.
Financial regulators and the European Union are responding with recommendations
and guidance on the disclosure of climate-related financial risks to help integrate
sustainability into investor portfolio management. Credit rating agencies are
developing new ways to anticipate how climate-related risks could impact businesses
and financial institutions.
But is this enough?
To assess whether the financial sector is adequately equipped, the EBRD is brought
together representatives from financial institutions to share their practical experience
of the ‘what’ and ‘how’ of climate-related risk management.
The event discuseed ways to achieve an effective investor-led climate response
via climate corporate governance, standards-based climate finance, climate risk
management, climate-related capital market products.

So I decided to make some more camera changes. Selling the 50Ds, replacing them with (eventually) a pair of 1D MkIIIs, with a 1D MkIIN backup
The first MkIII arrived today, and I'm enjoying it a lot. The 1Ds just feel better in my hands than the camera+grip combos I've been using.
I'm also selling my last EF-S lens, so all of my lenses will be usable on APS-H and full frame cameras.
My new 12-24 Sigma also showed up (12-24 on full-frame, no less), so I'll now have a 12-24, a 24 1.4, a 24-105, a 70-200 and 1.4x and 2x converters, plus a walkaround 28-300.
Eventually, I might finally be done buying camera gear. I doubt it, but it's possible. :)
Panel Discussion “Influencing Change – Donor Climate Finance at Work”
A key event of the Donor Programme was a panel entitled Influencing Change – Donor Climate Finance at Work where we heard about the role donors and the private sector play in shaping the post-Paris environment in the EBRD region.
This focused on the scaling up of the EBRD’s green finance between now and 2020, which will support countries’ ambitions to move to a low-carbon, green growth path.
The Programme also offered an opportunity for donors and the EBRD to discuss the results of their partnership, progress over the past year as well as future challenges and reforms. The Donor Report 2015 was also launched. The day concluded with a donor Assembly of the SEMED Multi-donor Fund, which will include a session on the Bank’s refugee response.

I changed the rear of the turret, after shortening the whole thing by one stud (good suggestion, Tim, it looks better), and reworked the storage area into an enclosed blow-out compartment. I think it works better.
The removal of the Polaris Building will change the skyline for a bit until the next project takes place.
With a population of 35,000 Fairbanks is the economic hub for for the northern regions of Alaska, there are a above average large retail stores which the population relies on for basic needs. It is not unusual for folks to fly to Fairbanks for just shopping from the numerous small town in the region.

City of Toronto ad campaign, Front Street. I love this ad because it speaks to the power of safe playgrounds to change children's lives and give parents a place to connect and form their own informal support networks -- something every parent needs.
With daylight savings over and the days getting shorter, I'm often seeing great sunsets over the city on the way home from work. Have stopped a few times, but the light just fades away so quickly.
I liked this sunset, but by the time I managed to stop, the colours had all but faded out of the clouds. Still, got to sit there, enjoy the light display and draw in the last of the days energy.
Really starting to notice the change in the face of the city. There is construction everywhere, kinda nice. Change is good!
Inside the cordon, Christchurch city centre.
Even the chair legs are bent. Perhaps a weighty security guard, a soldier
(hopefully they are allowed to sit down now and again), or a policeman moved the chair to this position, then abandoned it when they were reassigned to some other desolate street corner in the Red Zone.
The bicycle has most likely been chained to the bike stand since the 22 February 2010 earthquake.
