This picture was taken from the bridge in the middle of the garden. I was looking back at the beautiful pagoda building with inlaid wood doors and windows that were intricately carved. The weeping willow tree to the right of the building just added another layer of beauty.
Shown here is a photograph of the sculpture Classical Figure II by Carl Roseberg on display in the Roseberg Gallery in Swem Library at the College of William and Mary. The sculpture was created in the 1960s and is made from lignum vitae wood.
Lignum vitae is an especially heavy, hard wood. The sculpture was carved with the aid of a summer grant from the Society of the Alumni.

Built in 1914, this Classical Revival and Richardsonian Romanesque Revival-style building was designed by Franzheim, Giesey, and Faris to house the Stone Department Store. The building features a rough-hewn stone facade along Main Street and Bridge Street, with red brick facades facing away from the streets, one-over-one double-hung windows, a polygonal corner at the intersection of the two principal facades with roman arched transoms on the third floor, a modified first floor facade along Main Street, a cornice with dentils and modillions, doric engaged columns and pilasters between window bays, decorative trim at the spandrels between window bays, and a three-story Italianate-style building from the late 19th Century, which has been incorporated into the north end of the building. The building is a contributing structure in the Wheeling Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. Today, the building houses the offices of Williams Lea.

St James's church in Bulkington, an imposing edifice in grey sandstone dating mainly from the fourteenth century. It's tall 15th century tower is particularly impressive, and distinguished on it's south face by a series of tiny canopied windows that light the spiral staircase to the belfry (this seems to be a north Warwickshire peculiarity, found also at Middleton, Curdworth and Yardley). Much of the main body of the church dates back to the 14th century with later alterations.
The interior is broad and spacious and lighter than the exterior might lead one to expect, thanks to the rendered walls and minimal use of stained glass (only a couple of Victorian windows in the chancel). There has been some Victorian restoration, as witness by the elaborate chancel arch from this period, however the most notable features here are from the late Georgian period, namely a couple of memorials by local sculptor Richard Hayward and the unique font at the west end, a delicately carved Neo-Classical bowl perched atop an antique fragment of a column, brought back by wealthy travellers and reworked into a plinth for the font here.
Bulkington church is normally kept locked outside of service times, though it is possible there may still be limited open hours on Saturday mornings. This was my second visit and my time in the church was rather limited as the opportunity to climb the tower was offered and I simply couldn't turn this down!

永安漁港(舊名崁頭屋港),位於臺灣桃園市新屋區永安里,社子溪出海口北側。永安漁港是中壢區漁會轄區內的唯一漁港,屬於第三級漁港,亦為臺灣唯一以客家族群為主體的漁港。
永安漁港原為一小漁港,為因應漁船大型化需要,不但新闢碼頭,還挖深航道,並延長興建原有防波堤。漁港現在有漁筏99艘,漁獲種類以鯧、鰆、小卷、烏魚、鰹、鯊、黃花魚等為主,漁獲量主要供銷外縣市為主,為增加漁民收益。
杉原海水浴場位於臺灣臺東縣卑南鄉內的杉原海灣,原是全縣僅有的海水浴場。離臺東市約12公里,它位於弧狀的都蘭海灣南緣,浴場長度約為一公里多,珊瑚礁廣佈於南北附近的海域,海灘上有著柔軟細緻的沙子,地形也相當開闊平坦,水質更是清澈見底,適合許多水上活動的進行與親子間的互動,亦是觀光客休閒遊憩的好地方。
沿岸中的生態豐富多元,時常可以發現兩棲動物的蹤跡。但由於近年來東部海岸受到太平洋海水的嚴重侵蝕,以及人為違法超建旅館,除了使海岸線逐漸向內陸縮減,更破壞原有動植物的生態平衡,若持續下去,杉原海岸將可能無法倖免於此地理環境與人為因素的浩劫之下,在可預見的未來和近期快速消失的危機之下,民間團體已經發起自救會,想要保護台東這唯一珍貴的海岸,政府也和專家著手進行環境調查和執行維護的工作。
2003年,德安投資公司向臺東縣政府提出杉原海水浴場投資計劃,以BOT方式,預計在此經營海水浴場。2005年,縣政府通過此投資案,而飯店業者改為進行開發,興建美麗灣度假村,引起環保人士的抗議

The noodles stuck together, but the sauce... the chef said he wanted a little more love in the sauce, and we gave it to him. He said it was the best he's had in the class. As in, EVER, not just our class.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Archibald Fountain, properly called the J.F. Archibald Memorial Fountain, widely regarded as the finest public fountain in Australia, is located in Hyde Park, in central Sydney, New South Wales. It is named after J.F. Archibald, owner and editor of The Bulletin magazine, who bequeathed funds to have it built. Archibald specified that it must be designed by a French artist, both because of his great love of French culture and to commemorate the association of Australia and France in World War I. He imagined its civic design and ornamentation developing to rival his dream city Paris. The artist chosen was François-Léon Sicard.
The fountain was unveiled on 14 March 1932 by the Lord Mayor of Sydney, Samuel Walder.
Classical tradition
Sicard was one of the foremost sculptors of his day, a classically educated artist, whose inspiration was derived, at least in part, from his study of classical Greek and Roman art and literature. In submitting his proposal for the design of the sculptural groups, Sicard wrote: "Apollo represents the Arts (Beauty and Light). Apollo holds out his right arm as a sign of protection, and spreads his benefits over all Nature, whilst he holds the Lyre in his left hand. Apollo is the warmth which vivifies, giving life to all Nature. At the touch of his rays, men awake, trees and fields become green, the animals go out into the fields, and men go to work at dawn.
"The ancient Pliny adored the sun, symbol of Life. It is on this account that I wished this figure to be the chief one in the memorial.
"At Apollo's feet the star of day is indicated by a semicircle, of which the rays spread out in jets of light (the rising sun). The horses' heads represent the horses of Apollo's chariot. Out of their nostrils the water will fall into the first basin, to fall from there into the second, and run away into the large basin.
"The large basin is divided into three groups. One represents Diana, goddess of purity, of peaceful nights, symbol of charity; the ideal which watches over mortals - all that stands for poetry and harmony. The second group symbolises the good things of the earth - it is the young god of the fields and pastures, of the pleasure of the countryside. The third group represents sacrifice for the public good. Theseus, vanquisher of the Minotaur. The spirit triumphs over bestiality. Theseus delivers his country from the ransom which it had to pay to this monster. It is the sacrifice of himself for the good of humanity. Between these groups tortoises throw jets of water. The fountain is electrically illuminated and floodlighted at night.
"It depicts Apollo, representing beauty and the arts, on a central column holding out his right arm as a sign of protection over all nature. On the three plinths radiating from the central column there are figures representing Diana, the goddess of purity; a group representing the good things of the earth; Theseus slaying a Minotaur, representing the sacrifice for the good of humanity."
Interestingly, Sicard quotes Pliny as one of the ancient Roman sources for the modern understanding of the qualities supposedly represented by the gods. Rather than merely using the visual examples of works such as those by Pheidias, the iconic sculptor of classical Athens, whose free standing and frieze statuary represent the acme of the classical depiction of the human form in larger-than life bronze or marble, Sicard used literary sources to explain the symbology behind the form. The figure with the ram and goat is possibly Aristaeus.
His choice of classical figures was in keeping with the European tradition of the sculpture and architecture of the precinct of Hyde Park. There is no indication in the writings of Sicard, or indeed, in the appraisal of his work, that there was any intention to link the figures in the sculptural groups with any religious or sexual themes.

The last classical building biult in Singapore before the wars years. I believe it was finished in 1939.
Yes I know its going slow. But a good thing finally - bought me a big pencil (koh-i-noor 1820 jumbo 1 piece, grade 8B) and really started pushing and some dark contrasting tone finally came out. Worked on the neck and a bit on the shoulder here.
The 9B from Lyra I have is kinda oily and when I tried it out it was sort of an unpleasant surprise. Thank God it was not permanent and I just erased and covered it. But it was really quite impossible to move it around on paper (smudge) so I wont be using that one (maybe just for sketching). Oh, and I finally found me a Faber Castell 3,5 mech pencil (HB). Will do hair with that.
