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.
The Rhiwargor Waterfall, known locally as Pistyll Rhyd-y-meincau, is a spectacular waterfall on the River Eiddew in Montgomeryshire whose tall plunge gushes down the heather clad slopes of its valley near Lake Vyrnwy.

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.
At the back of the old asylum at Denbigh. Stand 3, asbestos clad coal silos. An iconic fixture at this well known site. I thought I'd get in and get a shot looking straight up one of them. The sound in here was surreal and made for a natural acoustic fast repeater echo chamber. The camera was low and impossible to view thru the viewfinder, so instead I just looked at the camera front and side elevation and squared it with any straight line I could reference from by eye.
This is Portland's new Hyatt Regency. The cladding in the elevator lobby is gorgeous, in shades of blue, white and yellow. I'd like to think it's real stone. What do you think?
The disgraced Gordon Sondland had the project tied up in litigation for years. The shamless bastard [n.b. this is statement of opinion - I'm not claiming his parents were unmarried at the time of his conception or birth] then offered to settle his suit providing he got the right to manage the hotel.
Now he's gotten his comeuppance. Portland ain't Brussels, is it, Gordon?
if interested in using this photo or any other one on my stream, let me know and send me an email. thank you

The design of PPG Place, by Philip Johnson and John Burgee, melds the notion of the modern corporate tower with a neo-gothic monument. Clad in almost a million square feet of glass manufactured by the anchor tenant PPG industries, the architects ingeniously rethought accepted practices in curtain wall design to create "the crown jewel in Pittsburgh's skyline." The 1.57 million square foot complex was one in a series of high profile corporate projects completed during Johnson's controversial foray into postmodernism. Commissioned by PPG Industries, formerly the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Company, the headquarters occupies a 5.5 acre site in the central business district and was part of an urban revitalization effort after the demise of the steel industry. PPG Place is a cluster of 6 volumes: a 40 story tower, a 14 story volume, and four 6 story buildings. The composition of lower volumes negotiates the verticality of the main tower and the lower surrounding context, yet all buildings are materially integrated and organized around a central plaza. The buildings house office space, retail shops, restaurants, and a publicly accessible winter garden.
Morning light falling on the Gorgeous Himalayas. Peaks are so nearby that I dont need a 70-300 or even 55-200.

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.
Perhaps a 'New Sensation'

Today Ivatt 2-6-0 46521 is withdrawn and under overhaul in Loughborough shed but back at the 2012 Winter Gala it was our new toy. Here is 46521 out on the main line on its first day in regular service at the GCR heading south on the Quorn straight.
The Quorn Down section signal is clearly off for us but the gaggle of hi-vis clad photographers behind it are intent on grabbing a shot of the shiny new engine in the beautiful winter sunlight.

The Inn at the Pier in Pismo Beach has an old-fashioned wooden look, but at street level it has a nice looking stone wall, as seen here, seemingly without cement between the flat bricks, because it is actually just a thin layer of stone cladding in front of cinder blocks. I assume that the “wood” above it is actually vinyl cladding...
