#TravelTuesday along Colorado’s Alpine Loop National Backcountry Byway with Guest Photographer Bob Wick
Southwest Colorado’s Alpine Loop National Backcountry Byway provides access to some of the most spectacular scenery anywhere in the Rockies. Here, jagged peaks up to 14,000 feet in elevation rise above rushing streams and wildflower filled meadows. My favorite time to photograph here is in mid-late July when the wildflowers reach their peak. Another amazing time is late September when the aspen turn the mountainsides golden.
Heading west from Lake City, make sure to stop at Cataract Gulch. This trail here is a somewhat arduous but very rewarding climb along a forest clad stream plunging over rocks and falls. Even a short hike up part of the trail offers great scenery and photo opportunities.
A few miles further West, the American Basin in Handies Peak Wilderness Study Area has a plethora of wildflowers including fields of Colorado’s state flower, the columbine. You can scale 14,000 foot Handies Peak with a long non-technical but demanding day hike. Stop by alpine Sloan Lake along the way with its turquoise waters and alpine flowers. Photo tip: I try to photograph wildflowers in the morning before it gets windy. I also get low; shooting from the same height, or even looking up from below taller flowers as it provides a fresh and interesting perspective. Use a very small aperture (F-16) to keep both the flowers and distant landscape features in focus.
You’ll need four-wheel drive to reach the higher passes on the Alpine Loop which top-out above treeline at over 12,800 feet on Engineer Pass. Just to the west of this pass is the ghost town of Animas Forks, at 11,200 feet. The restored log cabins offer excellent photo subjects. The surrounding communities of Lake City, Silverton and Ouray offer a variety of services including jeep rentals. Photo tip: When photographing at high elevations around light colored rock or patches of snow, your camera’s light meter can be tricked into underexposing the image – set your camera to snow/beach mode or overexpose by one or two stops to get the correct exposure.

Located in Washington, Iron, and Kane Counties in southwestern Utah, Zion National Park encompasses some of the most scenic canyon country in the United States. Within its 232 square miles are high plateaus, a maze of narrow, deep, sandstone canyons, and the Virgin River and its tributaries. Zion also has 2,000-foot Navajo Sandstone cliffs, pine- and juniper-clad slopes, and seeps, springs, and waterfalls supporting lush and colorful hanging gardens.
With an elevation change of about 5,000 feet-from the highest point at Horse Ranch Mountain (at 8,726 feet) to the lowest point at Coal Pits Wash (at 3,666 feet), Zion's diverse topography leads to a diversity of habitats and species. Desert, riparian (river bank), pinyon-juniper, and conifer woodland communities all contribute to Zion's diversity. Neighboring ecosystems-the Mojave Desert, the Great Basin, and the Rocky Mountains-are also contributors to Zion's abundance.
What is one to make of this confection? It is really quite quirky. The balustrade wall is a rare accompaniment to stone cladding. The gate posts are tall and slender, and have been created at the opposite end from the front door . The darker clading inbetween floors mimics the moulded features of the original house, seen on its neighbours and precludes any random use of colour elsewhere in the cladding. The use of a sea green banding beneath the guttering is baffling. Windows are replacements in a faux Georgian style.

Clad in her juicy velours, she has just returned from her daily 3 mile jog and must catch up on e-mails and texting. Kidding Kidding. This is my beautiful Mommom, born in Palermo, Sicily in March of 1913. I spent a few hours visiting her (she is quick to tell you she lives "unassisted") and I brought my camera, flash, and a stand. We set up various poses in the common area of her building. I was playing the part of a very (un)knowledgeable Stock Photographer and she: The Model. Start to Finish she was amazing to work with. She role played every task I suggested, and did really well with all the expressions I asked her to make. I brought the outfits, applied the make-up, fluffed up and sprayed her hair.
At 97, her biggest complaint is that she is bored - she doesn't really have any one her age to play with :-(
Better capture of this derlict of the Belmont Row Works. Looks like it might get demolished had there not been protests. It might have been built in 1899. Look at it now, the state of it. It is a terracota brick-clad structure.
It was the Belmont Row Works a factory on Belmont Row. It was destroyed by fire and wind in early 2007.
It was a factory to build bicycles for the Victorians.
It might possibly get restored.
It was the Headquarters for the Eccles Rubber and Cycle Company, and it housed rubber manufactory. By 1918 it was occupied by the Co-Operative Society, which used the premises to make underwear. In 1931 the factory was making pianos, and by 1941 bedsteads.
In the future, it might be developed as part of the Eastside Locks scheme.
Found the following news article at the Birmingham Maill website Restoration agreed to historic Birmingham bicycle factory
This is the Eastside Locks area.
Kylie Minogue
Australian pop princess Kylie Minogue played the third of three shows at East London’s O2 Arena in support of her 12th studio album Kiss Me Once.
Minogue played a hit-packed career-spanning set featuring classic hits such as Hand on Your Heart, Got to Be Certain and I Should Be So Lucky along with new hits Spinning Around, Kids and Can’t Get You Out of My Head. Controversially, clad in leather, the 46-year-old covered INXS hit Need You Tonight made famous by her late ex-boyfriend’s band.
Camp fun was had by all in the East London Arena as we wave goodbye to Britain’s favourite Australian import.

Bagsværd, a town which much the same as London ‘towns’, has been swallowed up by a ‘greater’ district, in this case; Copenhagen. This church which sits on a busy main road addresses the street by means of a single entrance, and long blank facade. As with the Utzon's Kingohusene, the idea of abstracting what is out of view. the exterior facade and materiality bearing no relevance to the softer, more intimate interior. This sets up a language, which gives an expectation a similar interior which is in fact a polar opposite. The interior is an abstraction of the sky, in the form of clouds, with the exterior becoming a further abstraction of this through surface treatment. The flowing curves of the interior are juxtaposed with the hard angles of the exterior, the treatment of which appears to be made up of separate ‘objects’, corridors, passages, courtyards. The exterior works off a grid with columns coming down to the ground where a ‘double opening’ has been created. This gives the impression of a consruction method behind the facade (the pre-cast concrete cladding sits as a layer ‘on top of’ the primary members), as opposed to a transfer structure which the column most likely is. The facade appears to have been peeled away to reveal the column. A pattern which hints at the extents of the internal ceiling is emblazoned proudly on the street elevation , giving the only clue (however subtle) as to what may lay inside. Internally the concrete feels impossibly suspended, as with clouds in the ‘real’ sky. In the main church hall, the peeling back of concrete allows light to enter from the top, much as the sun would shine through breaks in the clouds . The windows of this skylight are concealed so that it is simply light from ‘somewhere’ which is thrown into the space.
2 story stainless steel clad penthouse stair. Caliper Studio detailed, fabricated and installed for AVO Construction and Ben Hansen Architects.
A natty little porch with sloping roof has been built to remove any trace of the rounded arch with keystone (as next door) The natural choice of finish is stone cladding. Some of the mortar is a bit messy. One can't fault the wonderful pebbledash which masks the yellow brick with red banding. Mid to late 1880s I guess. The stock brick wall belongs to next door, but provides contrapuntal interest.

Falkentorps architectural expression moved from neoclassicism to modernism to functionalism, represented by remarkable works as the housing development “Classen Garden” (1924, together with Carl Petersen and Paul Baumann), the office building at the North Port (1930-32, together with Paul Baumann) and the Hotel Astoria (1935) next to the Central Station, all in Copenhagen. Falkentorp was from 1911 an engaged and debating a member of The Free Architekt association.
