Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord --Importance of memory--
Landschaftspark is a public park located in Duisburg-Meiderich, Germany. It was designed in 1991 by Latz + Partner (Peter Latz), with the intention that it work to heal and understand the industrial past, rather than trying to reject it. The park closely associates itself with the past use of the site: a coal and steel production plant (abandoned in 1985, leaving the area significantly polluted) and the agricultural land it had been prior to the mid 19th century
Conception and creation
In 1991, a co-operative-concurrent planning procedure with five international planning teams was held to design the park. Peter Latz’s design was significant, as it attempted to preserve as much of the existing site as possible. Unlike his competitors, Latz recognized the value of the site’s current condition. He allowed the polluted soils to remain in place and be remediated through phytoremediation, and sequestered soils with high toxicity in the existing bunkers. He also found new uses for many of the old structures, and turned the former sewage canal into a method of cleansing the site.
Design
The park is divided into different areas, whose borders were carefully developed by looking at existing conditions (such as how the site had been divided by existing roads and railways, what types of plants had begun to grow in each area, etc.). This piecemeal pattern was then woven together by a series of walkways and waterways, which were placed according to the old railway and sewer systems. While each piece retains its character, it also creates a dialogue with the site surrounding it. Within the main complex, Latz emphasized specific programmatic elements: the concrete bunkers create a space for a series of intimate gardens, old gas tanks have become pools for scuba divers, concrete walls are used by rock climbers, and one of the most central places of the factory, the middle of the former steel mill, has been made into piazza. Each of these spaces uses elements to allow for a specific reading of time.
The site was designed with the idea that a grandfather, who might have worked at the plant, could walk with his grandchildren, explaining what he used to do and what the machinery had been used for. At Landschaftspark, memory was central to the design. Various authors have addressed the ways in which memory can inform the visitor of a site, a concept that became prevalent during Postmodernism.

Well... she wasn't supposed to look so young, she will appear "older" depending on your enb and lighting conditions. I am so bad at creating mature characters :(
Since I haven't been able to give her a custom voice despite all the times I tried, I have decided to give her her own little home where she can be found!
Meet Calpernia, she may not be cute, beautiful and attractive, but the scars all over her body tell the story of her sad past.
I was tired to create too perfect characters and see everywhere female characters that look like plastic dolls... not everyone is perfect! Calpernia is not, luckily :P Tired of Barbies!
Yes I know, I have to fix the neckseam :(

How I wish I could've gotten a clearer shot of this guy, as I had to enlist the help of Bugguide for an ID...it's certainly an odd looking character!
of an outdoors-woman can be etched in her saddle and her face, she's proud of it and wears it well. Salt of the earth 💕
Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

Someone has put a fair bit of effort to create and maintain an old town feel to this property in Ohio.
I had to search several of my field guides to help make this ID of this scruffy character... (and they weren't a lot of help). Knowing it was a Woodpecker, I judged its features compared to all of the adult birds in the overall family that I know to be regular, if not common, up here. This is the first juvenile Williamson's Sapsucker that I have imaged... or even IDed up here. The Red-napped Sapsucker juvie male is very similar... in fact it was my first ID selection. At this time of year I concentrate on juvie images... the young birds change so fast, and quality images are lacking in the usual reference sources. ( I welcome comments and/or especially corrections to these IDs.)

It was a clear summer night when Cosmy’s starship landed on Earth. He came a long way from the stars, searching for other planets and life forms, cruising through solar systems. But among all the planets he had been before, he found Earth the most beautiful. The nature, the animals, the people, its sparkling colours, almost hurting his eyes the first time he saw the sun shining. He learned to love this place and cried when he saw human beings wasting their treasure. After a month of explorations, something went wrong with his spaceship. He could not come back home. At first he did not feel bad about it, earth was much better than his hometown, or should we say homestar. But as the time passed and winter came, the cold weather, the ice and the snow, reminded him about his home. About his family, about his people. So he decided to find a way to come back home, but he cannot do it alone. Would you help him ?
A colourful character from the motor racing world sadly another loss of life due to cancer.
He did lots of commentary as well as being a racing driver and team owner but there was always a bit of controversy but that made watching the Formula One events on television even more enjoyable.
Goodwood Motor Racing Circuit created this stand near the pits for a lovely tribute to Eddie Jordan.

Fleur de Cactus.
Revealing all here.
This very ephemeral flower usually seen around Christmas, the scientific name is Schlumbergera.
I love the way all the pollen is on the petals.
Sometimes a second bloom around Easter.
Also the name of a famous film and play.
In the film Cactus Flower ( Cactus Flower ) of Gene Saks ( 1969 ), this is Ingrid Bergman's character who plays Stephanie Dickinson, dedicated nurse for ten years the dentist Julian Winston, played by Walter Matthau.
Goldie Hawn had her first screen appearance in this!
Have a super day and thank you, M, (*_*)

Cause The Marvel Family deserves a sitcom, honestly.
King Kull: I don't think I've ever seen this guy done in Fig form before. Ooga chakka.
IBAC: Isn't there like a Satanic version of this guy too? Sabac or something? I dunno. Either way, this is not an easy dude to make look interesting.
Black Adam, Mister Mind and Doc Sivana are pretty much the same as ever.
Mister Atom: Didn't want to build a robot, so pretend this Sentinel is blue and yellow.
Aunt Minerva: This is a weird character, who I kind of love.
Captain Nazi: I hate Fawcett City Nazis. Boots are painted from something else.
Lemme know what you think!
The boyfriend I was chatting with on the left said, “Take a picture of her” while his girlfriend was walking away to join her friend on the right holding a toddler. After confirming that I've captured the scene properly, he gave me a satisfied smile afterwards.
Compositionally, I included his gaze on the left, the main character in the centre, and the friend on the right to keep it interesting and provide context that is thematically linked to other images in the series so far.
After presenting Portraits of Havana set within the Human Condition III album, my next mini-series will cover more sensual aspects of Havana.
Hope you like exploring variety in this developing series and I look forward to your comments!

Professor Lyra Everbane was born on a crisp February morning in 1999, in the enchanting wizarding village of Mould-on-the-Wold. The Everbane family, though not wealthy, was well-respected for their scholarly pursuits, particularly in magical folklore. Her mother, Moira, was a noted magical historian, while her father, Declan, was a wandmaker who specialized in rare woods. From an early age, Lyra was captivated by the legends her mother would recount by the hearth, tales of ancient heroes, magical beasts, and forgotten civilizations.
When she arrived at Hogwarts in 2010, Lyra was sorted into Hufflepuff, a choice that delighted her family. She embodied the house’s values of dedication, patience, and loyalty, often becoming the peacemaker among her classmates. Her warmth and kindness made her a favorite among her peers, while her determined work ethic ensured her success in her studies.
Lyra excelled particularly in History of Magic, Care of Magical Creatures, and Herbology. She was captivated by how myths connected to magical creatures and the natural world. She spent much of her time in the Hogwarts greenhouses or on the grounds, seeking inspiration from nature and befriending the resident creatures. Her fascination with magical folklore deepened under the mentorship of Professor Sprout and later Professor Firenze, who encouraged her to view mythology as more than mere stories—tools of wisdom and prophecy.
After graduating in 2017, Lyra embarked on a journey across the wizarding world. She spent time with Veela in Eastern Europe, learned from centaurs in the Forbidden Forest, and even gained the trust of the reclusive Merfolk communities in Greece. These experiences expanded her understanding of myth as a bridge between cultures and magical practices.
Her travels earned her respect in academic circles, but Lyra always remained grounded, refusing to let accolades overshadow her desire to teach. She returned to Hogwarts in 2029 to become the Professor of Mythological Studies, determined to pass on her knowledge to future generations.
As a professor, Lyra's Hufflepuff traits shone through. Her classroom became a haven for all students, a place where they felt valued and encouraged. She filled her lessons with interactive experiences, bringing myths to life with illusions, enchanted relics, and the occasional magical creature. Her ability to make every student feel seen and supported made her a beloved member of the Hogwarts staff.
While her sunny demeanor endeared her to many, Lyra carried an air of quiet mystery. Rumors swirled among students about the source of her knowledge of Thestrals, and some speculated that her compassion stemmed from personal loss. Despite this, she remained a constant source of hope and wisdom, always reminding her students that even the darkest myths often held lessons of resilience and light.
Today, Professor Everbane continues to inspire young witches and wizards, weaving together the wisdom of the past and the promise of the future in her teachings. Her loyalty to her students, her love of magical lore, and her steadfast determination ensure that her legacy will endure at Hogwarts for years to come.
A rare self portrait made on a grey Winters day when the light outside was very poor. I dislike this grey time of year. If I could I would hibernate until Spring.

Description of Historic Place
The Beaumont Knitting Mill, located at 586 Main Street, is on the west side of Main Street, north of Joseph Street, in Glen Williams, Town of Halton Hills. The three storey stone mill was established in 1878 with several later additions.
The property was designated by the Town of Halton Hills in 1990 for its heritage value under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act (By-law 1990-0045).
Heritage Value
The Beaumont Knitting Mill was established by James Leslie, whose family was among the earliest settlers in the Glen Williams area. It is also associated with Samuel Beaumont, a father of industry in Glen Williams who began to manufacture woollen goods at the Beaumont Knitting Mill in 1878. He made several additions to the mill over the years including a one-and-a-half-storey stone addition that fronts Main Street, which was added circa 1880.
The Beaumont Knitting Mill is the oldest remaining mill in Glen Williams. It is an example of the industrial style building common in small Ontario towns in the 19th century. Typical of this type of structure are the mill's coursed rubble limestone construction, symmetrical composition and mansard roof with dormers. The additions to the building reflect the evolution of industrial activities at the mill over time.
Character-Defining Elements
Character defining elements that contribute to the heritage value of the Beaumont Knitting Mill include its:
- three storey coursed rubble limestone exterior
- four sided mansard roof
- dormers
- projected eaves
- double hung 2 over 2 windows
- limestone lintels and sills
- circa 1880 one-and-a-half-storey stone addition
