There is some more information about Ile St. Louis on the first page of comments. And here is a link to a wonderful series of old maps of the historic center of Paris, showing the development around the Ile de la Cite and Ile St. Louis from the 1400's to the 1800's.
paris1900.lartnouveau.com/paris00/ile_cite_st-louis.htm
DESCRIPTION: C'etait le debut du mois de mars et je me regalais du ciel ombrageux sur cette vue classique de l'Ile St. Louis. On prendrait ce quartier - vu de la Rive Gauche - presque pour un autre village entierement diferent, sur une autre riviere, dans un autre lieux qu'au centre de Paris. L'Ile St. Louis, cette soiree la, juste apres le coucher du soleil que l'on voix legerement a gauche, me semblait absolument paisible .... une ile tranquile parmi l'activite' frenetique de Paris vers le soir quand tout le monde rentre chez eux, en toute vitesse. Ici le temps paraissait completement arrete' .... on ne voyait personne, et seulement deux ou trois petites lumieres clignotaient des fenetres. On entendait dans cette tranquilite' la Seine couler, comme elle l'a fait depuis des siecles.
DESCRIPTION: The Île Saint-Louis is one of two natural islands in the Seine river, in Paris, France (the other natural island is Île de la Cité, the Île des Cygnes is artificial). The island is named after King Louis XI of France (Saint Louis).
The island is connected to the rest of Paris by bridges to both banks of the river and by the Pont Saint Louis to the Île de la Cité. This island was formerly used for the grazing of market cattle and stocking wood. One of France's first examples of urban planning, it was mapped and built from end to end during the 17th-century reigns of Henri IV and Louis XIII. A peaceful oasis of calm in the busy Paris centre, this island has but narrow one-way streets, no métro stations and two bus stops. Most of the island is residential, but there are several restaurants, shops, cafés and ice cream parlours at street level, as well as one large church, Église St. Louis en L’Isle. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%c3%8ele_Saint-Louis
This is an authentic part of Paris like it looked in the 17th and 18th century! Pretty, elegant, narrow streets, dignified premises and picturesque interior courtyards, like in the Marais. An oasis of peace in the middle of this busy modern city. An amazing oasis full of the atmosphere of pre-modern times. www.apartexchange.com/Guide_paris3-ilestlouis.htm for an excellent short history of the island.
Comments and Critic are highly appreciated.
Description: It has been quite a while since my last visit to the As-salam Mosque in Puchong. Arriving at location just after blue hour, I am grateful that I was greeted with a warm but soft light from the sun. As someone who is very new to timelapse, I can't help myself from taking a timelapse. This image is part of the 880 images taken for the timelapse that morning.

PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVORITE
A loud speaker booms through the corridors.
“Attention all Justice League Of America members, please report to the central control room immediately.”
One by one, the JLA files into the central control room.
“Ok, ok I’m here. What I miss?”
“Don’t worry Oliver, we wouldn’t start without you.” A voice said as Oliver ran into the room
Oliver looked up to see a tall man, completely shaven, standing in front of the team.
“I know you. You’re Lex Luthor, the CEO.”
“Glad we can skip the introductions, Mr. Queen-“
“I also know about all that shady business Lexcorp gets up to. Destroy 3rd world villages mining for rare meteorites. Tired pretty hard to cover that up.”
“I see my reputation proceeds me.”
“You can say that again.”
“Well, unless our own conscientious objector has anything to say-“
“Oh I got plenty to say to you, Luthor-“
“Save it. We have a mission to complete here” Captain Atom interjected
“Thank you Captain. Now, just to make everything clear, I’ll be providing off the books funding for this little escapade, and I’ll also be one of it’s main heads of this operation”
“Called it” Oliver said through a fake cough. Dina chuckled under her breath as Lex scowled.
“Anything you would like to add Mr. Queen?”
“Yeah, I got a question, what happened to your hair? Cause I remember seeing you on TV and you had some nice ginger locks not to long ago.”
Lex sighed.
“I have found that in life there can be a lot of… distractions. Lots of little things that build up over time that can get in the way of your goals. So sometimes, you just need to get rid of all those distractions that get in your way to get what you want. Do you follow?”
“Yeah I think so.”
“Good. Now, here are your mission’s. You’ll be splitting up into pair’s of two’s and you’ll be hunting down known criminals and fugitives from the law. We’re not waiting for them to make a move.”

Eastern bearded dragon
Scientific Name: Pogona barbata
The eastern bearded dragon is an agamid lizard found in wooded parts of Australia. It is one of a group of species known commonly as bearded dragons. Other common names for this species include Jew lizard and frilly lizard, the latter being a confusion between this and another dragon, the frill-necked lizard (Chlamydosaurus kingii). This species was originally described in 1829 by Georges Cuvier, who named it Amphibolurus barbatus.
Description: P. barbata is one of the eight recognized species within the Pogona genus. Adult males can grow to about 60 cm (24 in) from the snout to the tip of the tail, while females may reach 50 cm (20 in) in overall length. The head is large and triangular in shape. The throat is covered with spiny, dark grey scales which can be raised to form an impressive "beard". Several groups of even longer spiny scales are located at the back of the head, the corners of the mouth, the external ear openings, and running posteriorly along both sides of the abdomen. The thorax and abdomen are relatively slender and flattened dorsoventrally. It is usually grey-black in skin colour and is sometimes reddish-brown, yellowish-brown, or dark brown. Juveniles are paler in colour than the adults and have patterns that fade as they mature. As the animal matures, it develops a subtle pale yellow, blue, or green tinge on the forepart of its head. If excited and at higher temperatures head, flanks and legs have a yellowish to orange colour. Usually however they are rather dark, from yellowish to grey and black. The inside of the mouth is generally a bright yellow colour. P. barbata resembles its close relative, the central bearded dragon, but may be distinguished from the latter by its less robust body and the row of spines along the lateral edge of the body, which continues over the forearm.
Distribution and habitat: It is most common in eastern Australia south of Cape York Peninsula, but specimens have been collected from Cape York, through central Australia, and even from the west coast of Australia.
Ecology and behaviour: Eastern bearded dragons are diurnal. They are semiarboreal and perch on exposed places such as tree branches or logs, retreating to lower and cooler places when too hot. They are more aggressive than the central bearded dragon. The males are territorial and permit only females and juveniles in their territory. Dominant males are usually the biggest dragons and get the highest perches. Females tunnel into dry earth to lay a clutch of eggs. When threatened, it inflates its throat and displays its beard. If further provoked, it opens its mouth to display the bright yellow colour of the lining of its mouth. In its close relative, the central bearded dragon; the lining of the mouth is of a reddish-pink hue. However the eastern bearded dragon will perform this beard display more often than its cousin.
Diet: The eastern bearded dragon feeds on a variety of small animals, including mice, smaller reptiles, and insects. In captivity, it also eats leaf vegetables such as clover and small flowers, fruits, and berries.

So, I didn't actually plan on making her, but I just saw Suicide Squad on Saturday for the first time. Harley was literally the only thing that was keeping me interested along with deadshot's character arc.
So this fig is Squad inspired, with my own twists.
Also, new background!
Harley Quinn:
Her head is official, with blue and red eyeshadow added on. Her hair is from the CMF babysitter, painted in a off white, with baby blue and pink painted onto the tips. It also has some blue and red hairties. I liked the jacket less version in the film, so I went for that approach. The red top was swapped with blue, and the blue arm stripes were swapped with red. The shirt design is based off an actual HQ shirt, but I added the Card suit logos. The shirt is ripped at the ends, to give Harley a sense of edginess. The shorts are straight from Suicide Squad, but I didn't feel like adding fishnet stockings. The boots are knee high, with simple detail.
Overall, I really like how it turned out.
I plan on making the other Gotham Sirens, but with my own twists.
Again, please comment if you fave!
Thanks!
Boss.

Comments are welcome if you have an opinion about whether the right or left image is better. They're welcome anyway but I'm curious which one you like better.
In childhood, I had a relative whose house had a well and you had to pump a handle, like the one shown here, to get water. It was potable water from a well but you had to work for it.
Out of frame: this place had "grenade" style glass carbon tetrachloride fire extinguishers. In concept, good. Downside: in a fire the extinguishing agent decomposes into phosgene gas.
…It’s very hard to motivate change when the costs are up-front and the benefits [are later].

For Leeds Fisrt Friday Gemma and I helped out two first-timers as we love to do. What a brilliant night! Rose and Becky had such a good time - and Becky even came out with us the next night to a non-lgbt club! Amazing, and wonderful to see someone new really taking to being out and about.
Also, I did my second ever karaoke performance at The Bridge, which I absolutely loved! And it turns out there's a little diva buried inside me somewhere - at the end of the song, I got a couple of cheers from the back of the pub, and in response I blew a kiss, LOL! Diva!
Another of Gemma's awesome slow motion corridor walking videos. I forgot to upload this one the other day when I uploaded the others.

Following a comment on a posting a couple of days ago, here's a railway image from the late John Cooke taken when on a family holiday in the mid '70s.
It shows a Swindon built 'Cross Country' (Class 120) DMU doing the honours on the short contorted but scenic branch to Looe. Even the station arrangement at Liskeard was odd where branch trains ran from what was effectively their own station across the road running at right angles to the main line platforms, Trains then ran round in a big loop (crossing the main line) to a point where they reversed to continue their journey to Looe.
In modern times, the branch has just re-opened following a couple of months of closure due to flooding and wash-aways at the close of 2025.
I would like to thank all of my Flickr Friends for their comments, awards, and invites over this past year. I appreciate all of them very much and look forward to seeing and commenting on all of my contact's images next year. I hope that the new year is a good one for each and everyone of you.

Sorry to everyone for the absence of comments today, Yahoo have been depositing everything from my Flickr contacts into one folder & it's taken me all day to sort through 240 ish e mails .. normal service resumes tomorrow (hopefully)
Wallington is a country house and gardens located about 12 miles (19 km) west of Morpeth, Northumberland, England, near the village of Cambo. It has been owned by the National Trust since 1942, after it was donated complete with the estate and farms by Sir Charles Philips Trevelyan, the first donation of its kind. It is a Grade I listed building.
The estate was owned by the Fenwick family from 1475 until their financial problems caused them to sell their properties to the Blacketts. The hall house was rebuilt in 1688 around the ancient Pele Tower house for Sir William Blackett and was later substantially rebuilt again, in Palladian style, for Sir Walter Blackett by architect Daniel Garret, before passing to the Trevelyan family in 1777. Charles Philips Trevelyan inherited the property from his father George Otto Trevelyan in 1928.
Set in 100 acres (40 ha) of rolling parkland, the estate includes a wooded dene (valley), ornamental lakes, lawns, and a recently refurbished walled garden.
