Jain temple - Chandni chowk - Old Delhi.
The Digambar Jain priests evidently go naked. Oh my! well except for the eyeglasses in this case.
The point is to express total renunciation of material goods. they are not 'naked' per se, they are clad in the sky. there are about 2,000,000 Jains in India.
If this guy was ugly would his naked poster be up on Old delhi's main street?

The latest Leeds Met student building.
As a Northern university, the building was clad in a rust style finish to resemble the Antony Gormley Angel of the north. It has got windows on the other sides!

A warrior clad in chitin armor from morrowind.
A nice way to end 2021 on.
I am a fan of elderscrolls, primarly morrowind due to its story and outlandish plants, creatures and landscapes as well as the buildings.
So heres to another year of lego awsomeness.
Happy building

This metal-clad eight-voice monstrosity was extremely powerful for its time, but it was an unreliable beast, crashing spontaneously, one time in the middle of a gig. I shipped it to Roland in California twice for repairs, but the crashes continued.
I paid $4600 for it back around 1981, I think. I finally gave it away to my teenage next-door neighbor, who grew up to be a professional musician, serving as Mandy Moore's music director for one of her tours.
Joggers on the Embankment, for the monthly scavenger hunt: 'Lycra should only be for the very thin!'
I disagree. When I was sitting on the Embankment watching the joggers, I saw lots of lycra. The wobbly people looked really bad in it, but the worst was a lady who was so painfully thin it can only have been through illness (I assume anorexia). The lycra was hanging off her and accentuating all the hollow bits.
The lady in this photo isn't very thin (though she's thinner than me!), but she is nicely toned, and I think she looks fine in lycra.

Top left – photo showing the power substation without a super-imposing structure, the stone cladding is in the form of a late pattern having indented gaps between the granite blocks. The original roller shutter was manufactured by ‘Rolador’ of London, which was a standard outfit in the past 50 years
Bottom left – another single-level power substation built in the 1950s, the stone cladding is however having an even older pattern, with the cement mortar protruding out from the stone face; the granite blocks are also not identical both in size and in surface finishing. Due to recent renovation, the ‘Rolador’ was replaced by stainless steel doors with louvres at the lower side
Bottom right – this is a comparatively big substation having two openings, both with a ‘Rolador’ shutter installed at each opening; the cladding stones remained to be a late pattern with granite blocks in a more regular shape
Top right – the floor of this substation is not at the street level, and a pair of painted steel doors were installed in lieu of the typical ‘Rolador’ shutters. This substation, said to be built in 1965, has not been renovated, the original moulding – ‘China Light & Power Co., Ltd. …’ on the top of the front facade is still untouched
With changes in planning, there will be few new substations built, and the existing old ones will be reduced in number. Original substations cladded with granite blocks remained just a few, the rest were cladded with aluminium panels during renovation work in an upgrading program.
Not seen since 1981 when it was used an quite a few 'local' specials, Morayshire was in the yard minus boiler cladding.

Fotografie facuta in 1936, imediat dupa terminarea ridicarii "Palatului Lido". Arhitect Ernest Doneaud. Este o cladire emblematica a Bucurestiului, binecunoscuta si datorita restaurantului si strandului cu valuri artificiale din spatele hotelului. De remarcat trotuarul foarte larg din fata cladirii.
Designed by the engineer André Waterkeyn for the International Exhibition of Brussels, that took place here in 1958, the Atomium is a structure that is half way between sculpture and architecture, symbolising an iron crystal by the scale of its atoms, magnified 165 billion times.
Work was started in March 1956. Made entirely of steel clad with aluminium, the structure dominates the Heysel plateau. The particular position chosen for the cube, i.e., resting on one sphere with a vertical diagonal, was essentially dictated by esthetical reasons. Such a position made it of course necessary to insure the stability of the structure by three bipods. The nine large spheres joined by tubes which comprise the Atomium, are arranged in the configuration of a central cubic system. These spheres were fitted out by the architects André and Jean Polak.
The Atomium was not intended to survive the Exhibition of 1958. Its popularity and success, however, ensured its place as a major landmark on the Brussels skyline.
Today, the condition of the Atomium requires renovation work. This will start in 2003, thanks to aid from the federal state of Belgium, in collaboration with the Region of Brussels Capital and the City of Brussels.
Dimensions of the Atomium
The Atomium is 334.6. ft. high ; the spheres have a diameter of 59.0 ft ; weight of 2400 tons.
The distance between the spheres, measured on the sides of the cube, is 95.1 ft ; the diameter of the tubes is 9.8 ft. The diagonal tubes are 75.4 ft long and of 10.8 ft diameter.
The diameter of the pavilion on which the base sphere appears to rest is 85.3 ft.
The base sphere rests on the foundation via the central tube of 10.8 ft diameter and twelve columns of 16.4 ft height.
The circular cut-out- in the lower part of the sphere has a diameter of 32.8 ft.
The bipods are 295.3 ft apart and their articulations are 164 ft away from the central mast. Each of the three bipods weighing over 110 tons.
The escalators installed inside the tubes of the Atomium are amongst the longest in Europe. The largest is 114.8 ft long. They can take 3,000 persons per hour.
The elevator speed – the highest in Europe – is 16.4 ft/sec. It takes visitors up to the top sphere in 23 seconds and its capacity is 22 persons.
A floor has an area of 2,583 sq.ft and the height between floors is approximately 14.8 ft. The restaurant in the top sphere can sit 140 persons and the viewpoint situated below can contain 250 persons.
The stairs inside the bipods – which are 115 ft high – have approximately 200 steps.
A scientific exhibition of the peaceful uses of atomic energy will be held in the reception hall, the base sphere and two lower spheres, as well as on the first floor of the central sphere.
