The cladding on the Victoria Gate car park in Leeds becomes an abstract rhythmical pattern of lines in the afternoon sun.
3rd layer of insulation, you can see the wires here, going through the drilled holes in the vertical batons
today I've been fitting some new security cladding to the front of the house - the secret of its sucess is that it looks just like regular bricks - no need to alarm the neigbours - just act casual - don't think anyone's spotted it - thought I'd give it a coat of paint so it really blends in - the Zebras haven't noticed anything unusual - thanks for looking - best bigger
Ich habe großen Respekt und Hochachtung vor Flechten aller Art. Denn sie entwickeln sich scheinbar "aus dem Nichts" heraus zu meist schönen Pflanzen, bleiben dabei immer äußerst genügsam, können lange dauernde Notzeiten überleben, und sind nicht zuletzt Wegbereiter für alle anderen Pflanzen, die für ihr Gedeihen bereits höhere Ansprüche an ihre Umgebung stellen. Hier präsentiere ich eine von einem Waldspaziergang mitgenommene Strauchflechte, vermutlich die Igel-Cladonie (Cladonia uncialis), auf einem Stein mit Landkarten-Flechten (Rhizocarpon geographicum).
I have great respect and high regard for lichens of all kinds. Because they develop seemingly "out of nothing" into mostly beautiful plants, always remaining extremely frugal, able to survive long periods of hardship, and are last but not least paving the way for all other plants that already make higher demands on their environment to thrive. Here I present a shrub lichen, probably the thorn clad lichen (Cladonia uncialis), taken from a walk in the woods, on a stone with map lichens (Rhizocarpon geographicum).
got the M9-P re-clad while the sensor was being replaced - never got around to taking a shot of it though.

Yesterday I went to my favoured woodyard to get a price for imported 150mm x 35mm redwood Loglap treated green (tanalised) shed timber cladding. For a 4.2m long piece it was £25.80 (inc VAT). Expensive.
They have brilliant customer service, and the guy behind the counter introduced me to this composite cladding, perfect for a shed.
It comes in slightly cheaper than the Loglap timber… But… it never needs painting or staining. Just power washing annually!
There are 8 colours available… Ivory, Light grey, Teak, Redwood, Stone grey, Olive green, Charcoal, and Coffee.
Current we’re mulling it over, but, we like the Charcoal.

An image taken last year on our visit to Shropshire and it won't be long now before the Shropshire hillsides of the Stiperstones and the Long Mynd are covered yet again in this gloriously coloured Heather.
My brother's Manus' family have been building a new house - they will move in in April. I am amazed at the quality of the stone cladding. I think it is art- I could look at the patterns for ages.. All of the stone you see has been collected from around the house, either surface stones lying on the field or from the earth dug out for the foundations. This earth was riddled with a tractor riddle and then washed and left in piles for the stonemasons to pick over and use.
As a gardener I usually curse having stony ground. Maybe every cloud has a silver lining waiting to be found.
Snow mixed with freezing rain.
Thank you so much for your views, comments and faves! They are encouraging as I continue on my photographic journey.
Morning light falling on the Gorgeous Himalayas. Peaks are so nearby that I dont need a 70-300 or even 55-200.
Hoya CP filter was used to reduce the glare

Royal Bank Tower, Royal Bank Plaza, Toronto, headquarters of RBC and built in the 1970s after the bank decided to move its home office from Montreal to Toronto. The tower is 591 feet tall. The exterior is clad in gold-bronze glass. The North and South towers contain 14,000 windows that project from the facade to form angular bays set into brushed aluminum frames. The glass for the windows was manufactured by Canadian Pittsburgh Industries, and was coloured using 2,500 oz of gold, valued at $70 (Cdn) per pane at the time.
No self respecting 55 year old should be seen in a dress like this. Fortunately, I have very little self respect. I blame the wonderful Cindy for egging me on.
Roan Mountain is the highpoint of the Roan-Unaka Range of the Southern Appalachian Mountains, located in the Southeastern United States. The mountain is clad in a dense stand of Southern Appalachian spruce-fir forest, and includes the world's largest natural rhododendron garden, and the longest stretch of grassy bald in the Appalachian range. The Cherokee National Forest and Pisgah National Forest converge atop the mountain, with Roan Mountain State Park located near its northern base. The Appalachian Trail crosses most of the Roan's crest. The Roan High Knob Shelter is the highest backcountry shelter on the entire 2,174-mile (3,499 km) trail. Roan Mountain comprises the greater part of the Roan Highlands, a 20-mile (32 km) massif stretching from Big Rock Creek in the west to U.S. Route 19 in the east. Most of this massif lies along the Tennessee-North Carolina border, between Carter County and Mitchell County. Yellow Mountain and Hump Mountain, on the northern tip of the massif, are part of the Roan Highlands but are generally not considered part of Roan Mountain proper. Roan Mountain contains five mountain peaks, and is roughly divided into two sections by Carver's Gap. The first section — composed of Roan High Bluff and Roan High Knob — lies west of Carver's Gap and is characterized by a thick coniferous forest. This part of Roan is shaped something like the body of a double-humped camel, with the "humps" being High Bluff and High Knob. Tollhouse Gap lies between the two peaks, and contains the Rhododendron Gardens, the largest of its kind in the world. The second section of Roan Mountain — known as Grassy Ridge — is east of Carver's Gap, and is the longest stretch (appx. 7 miles) of grassy bald in the Appalachian Mountains. A grassy bald is a type of highland meadow characterized by thick grass and sparse tree coverage. The three peaks atop Grassy Ridge are Round Bald, Jane Bald, and Grassy Ridge Bald. The bald area spans the summits of all three, covering an area roughly equal to 1,000 acres (4.0 km2). The Appalachian Trail, after traversing Iron Mountain to the west, crosses Hughes Gap and ascends Roan's northern slope to Tollhouse Gap. From there, it makes a sharp turn to the east, crossing Roan High Knob, Carver's Gap, Grassy Ridge, and Yellow and Hump Mountains before descending to US-19 and the White Rocks Mountain area. From the slopes of Old Black in the Great Smoky Mountains, some 150 miles (240 km) to the south, to Mount Washington in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, some 1,500 miles (2,400 km) to the north, Roan Mountain is the only area where the trail rises above the 6,000-foot (1,800 m) mark.
