my contribution for the macro Monday theme the space in between. I took several photos for the theme. I just thought this one was just right for it. 50 mm lens with aperture control and flash.
My contribution to this weeks theme, still life (with a touch of Halloween), for the photo group Fotosöndag.
Några snäckor från årets Thailandsresa och ett par ljus på ett klassiskt tennfat från Jämtland. Svårare ska det ju inte vara att ta en bild på temat "stilleben". Om det inte var för att det skulle göras på Alla helgons-helgen som till råga på allt inföll på samma dag som Halloween. Inte konstigt att det for omkring en massa konstigt i luften vid plåtningen. Ja, även dagen efter själva begifvenheten. De hade en himlans kul helg de där illbattingarna.
My contribution to the Macro Mondays' challenge, "chain", on 9 December 2019. It's a 19th Century watch chain (also known as an Albert chain) decorated with a gold sovereign from the reign of George II.
My contribution to the images taken during Erlestoke Manor's final weekend before being withdrawn for overhaul. We had just arrived back at Kiddi behind Light Pacific No. 34027 `Taw Valley' having enjoyed a thoroughly delicious meal on the dining train - highly recommended! and took the opportunity for a quick grab shot.
While passengers head for home, and having arrived with her last train prior to being withdrawn, ex-GWR 78xx `Manor' No. 7812 `Erlestoke Manor' stands at the stops of Kidderminster Town Station.
With transport booked she will be heading off to Tyseley for the work to be undertaken and is scheduled to be back in two years time. I believe her tender will remain on the SVR and, after a little work, will be mated with sister loco No. 7802 `Bradley Manor'.

This was my contribution to this year's Eurobricks collaborative layout at Brickworld Chicago, named Ready, Set, Escargot.
The concept to have a snail race with castles on top fighting each other. The snail was designed by Mark Larson, and then we all built our own snail and a castle on top.
My castle is inspired by Japanese castles, and its name means "snail castle" in Japanese. The castle is obviously defended by ninjas, some of which are going on the assault on elemental dragons. The snail is being baited with sushi. The castle also comes equipped with relaxation facilities, such as a zen garden and a hot bath.
This my contribution to Smile on Saturday Group. The theme is : light and dark. Thank you so much for your support, I truly appreciate all the Flickr love ❤️! I wish you a happy day and I’m looking forward to seeing your beautiful pictures!!! And HSoS !!!

By 1845 the Church of England was established in their new place of worship. Voluntary contributions had been received to build a fine Sunday School House.
The designer was Everard James Blackburn who later went on to survey Melbourne and was founder of that city’s water supply (the Tasmanian links with the founding of Melbourne are very deep). A suburb of Melbourne is named after him. But Dr William Valentine (whom we met yesterday with his fine house "The Grange") also figures in this story too.
You see Dr Valentine was one of the major drivers in getting this building constructed, and as Geoff Ritchie from "On the Convict Trail" points out (thanks Geoff!), the building bears a strong resemblance to the primary school in Martock, Somerset, England where Dr Valentine was born. ontheconvicttrail.blogspot.com/2015/05/this-building-was-...
Although serving as a Sunday School, from 1851 until a new school was built in 1878, it acted as the town's day school as well.

This is my contribution to this weeks Macro Mondays theme of "Sweet or Savoury". I chose savoury because my palate prefers the taste, Here we have Chia and Oat Crispbread with a small chunk of mature blue stilton cheese with a couple of pearl silverskin onions, the only thing that is missing is a glass of port..yummy and HMM
Crazy Tuesday contribution "Favorite Song"
"Waldeinsamkeit" is a beautiful german poem by Joseph von Eichendorff (1788-1857). The composer Max Reger (1873-1916) created a song ("kunstlied") based on this poem:
It's International Lego Classicist Day 2021 and this is my contribution for this year!
Ramses II. on his war chariot at the Battle of Kadesh, accompanied by archer and cheetah. The depiction of the scene is a blend between two motives.
The stylistic approach tries to recreate this image of Ramses, with hieroglyphs, cheetah and archer. While the position of the horses - to be more visible - is taken from a second image. The hieroglyphs between Ramses and the horses were spared out for artistic reasons, to have a cleaner look.
.jpg){kind=link}
More images and details of the war chariot will follow the next days.
Happy ILCD 2021! 😊

My contribution for this week's theme "nature"; for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
Well, även gråsparvar i en förortshäck hör ju liksom till naturen. Kanske inte den där avkopplande, friska naturen man är ute i för att reflektion och återhämtning. Men när inget annat finns tillgängligt än en handfull gråsparvar som näbbas i en nyponbuske, får det funka som temabild också.

every day boys like this fellow come to the beach with their horses for giving beach visitors a brief horse ride along the water front for Rs 20/- (say 30 cents). The good old friends - the beach and horses are helping these poor kids to help their parents to raise them and run their kitchen. Thats Nature's contribution to the man kind!

Excerpt from burlingtonculturalmap.ca:
Burlington War Memorial
Ivor Rhys Lewis, 1922
Bronze sculpture on a granite plinth
Governor General Lord Byng dedicated this cenotaph in April 1922. Originally located at the west end of Lakeside Park, later renamed to honour Spencer Smith, the monument was moved to City Hall in 1962. The cenotaph is a 10-foot granite column on a two-tier base. A seven-foot bronze statue of a Canadian soldier in First World War battle-dress tops the column, which lists the names of 38 First World War fatalities from Burlington and Nelson Township, 17 key First World War Canadian battle locations, and the names of 44 local service people who died in the Second World War. Burlington’s contributions to the military conflicts in Korea and Afghanistan, as well as peacekeepers, are recognized on the base of the monument.
A verse from the poem Pro Patria by Owen Seaman is engraved under the Second World War plaque:
To teach that he who saves himself is lost;
To bear in silence though our hearts may bleed;
To spend ourselves, and never count the cost,
For others’ greater need;

Some kind of last minute Marchikoma contribution.
The JH S35 is a mass produced small walking tank. The turret is 360° rotatable, the main weapon can be changed to a gatling, mortar or laser cannon. The tank can rest in a compact position. In this position the main sensor arrays are hidden underneath the 'head' armor and the legs are tucked up making the tank look like a stationary weapon. It also has the ability to move forward fast and agile, with a surprise effect. Usually deployed in large numbers to secure front line measurements.
Occasionally private security companies use them for small operations as they are cheap and reliable, there are also rumors that some might have gotten into the hands of the Yakuza.

My contribution for this week's theme "sunday", for the Swedish photo group Fotosondag.
Går sällan i kyrkan. Ändå är det det första jag kommer att tänka på när nån säger ”söndag”, att det är en kyrklig dag. Märkligt hur vissa saker bara lever kvar.
My contribution to the Brick-Time Stories Collaborative at BW 2015. One of two Robin Hood creations for the collaboration. Eight builders, including Max Pointner, Ian Spacek, Matthew Oh, Lee Muzzy, Daniel Church, Ben Merrill, and Casey McCoy each built a scene from a children's picture book or novel. The scenes were constructed on bases made to look like books, and were arranged into a veritable library of illustrations at the expo.
This creation portrays the classic Robin Hood robbery in the forest. I had tons of fun building this creation, I experimented with a very Mark Erickson style landscaping, and Erickson brothers' trees. :) Gotta love the Ericksons! :D
To make it more artistic, I shaped the landscape that is popping out of the book in the shape of a bow.
Thanks for viewing, and don't forget to check out the other creations of the collaborative!

A further contribution to the master class series; this is actually a fairly large model sitting in a hairdressers window.
Taken for the Nottingham Group’s master class, full details are here - www.flickr.com/groups/nottingham/discuss/72157623597955135/
The adjustments on this one were fairly straight forward – a simple conversion to mono, tweaked by using the black and white gradient map, and a contrast boost; the final and longest task was using the clone tool to create a dark background.

My contribution to the weekly theme, which is "tilt-shift"
We were supposed to go to a classical music concert this evening, but C. got caught up with work, and by the time he finished, the concert was supposed to have started for 10 minutes already. So instead, we went for a stroll along the Danube.
City Palace, Udaipur, is a palace complex situated in the city of Udaipur, Rajasthan. It was built over a period of nearly 400 years, with contributions from several rulers of the Mewar dynasty. It's construction began in 1553, started by Maharana Udai Singh II of the Sisodia Rajput family as he shifted his capital from the erstwhile Chittor to the new found city of Udaipur.[1] The palace is located on the east bank of Lake Pichola and has several palaces built within its complex.
The City Palace in Udaipur was built in a flamboyant style and is considered the largest of its type in the state of Rajasthan. It was built atop a hill, in a fusion of the Rajasthani and Mughal architectural styles, providing a panoramic view of the city and its surroundings. Overlooking Lake Pichola, several historic monuments like the Lake Palace, Jag Mandir, Jagdish Temple, Monsoon Palace, and Neemach Mata temple, are all in the vicinity of the palace complex. Nestled within the Aravali mountain range, these landmarks are associated in popular culture with the filming of the 1983 James Bond movie Octopussy.
History
The City Palace was built concurrently with the establishment of the Udaipur city by Maharana Udai Singh II and his successor Maharanas over a period of the next 400 years.The Maharanas lived and administered their kingdom from this palace, thereby making the palace complex an important historic landmark.
The Mewar kingdom had flourished initially in Nagda (30 kilometres (19 mi) to the north of Udaipur), established in 568 AD by Guhil, the first Maharana of Mewar. In the 8th century, the capital was moved to Chittor, a hill top fort from where the Sisodias ruled for 800 years. Maharana Uday Singh II inherited the Mewar kingdom at Chittor in 1537 but by that time there were signs of losing control of the fort in wars with the Mughals. Udai Singh II, therefore, chose the site near Lake Pichola for his new kingdom as the location was well protected on all sides by forests, lakes and the Aravalli hills. He had chosen this site for his new capital, much before the sacking of Chittor by Emperor Akbar, on the advice of a hermit he had met during one of his hunting expeditions.
The earliest royal structure he built here was the Royal courtyard or 'Rai Angan', which was the beginning of the building of the City Palace complex. The court was built at the location where the hermit had advised Maharana to build his new capital.
After Udai Singh’s death in 1572, his son Maharana Pratap took the reins of power at Udaipur. However, he was defeated by the Mughal emperor Akbar at the Battle of Haldighati in 1576 and Udaipur fell under the Mughal rule. After the death of Akbar, Mewar was given back to Maharana Pratap's son and successor Amar Singh I by Jahangir. ]However, the Mughal army sent many expeditions against the Mewar empire, culminating in a peace treaty between both rulers.
But with the increasing Marathas attacks by 1761, Udaipur and the Mewar state were in dire straits and in ruins. By 1818, Maharana Bhim Singh signed a treaty with the British accepting their protection against the other empires.After the Indian independence in 1947, the Mewar Kingdom, along with other princely states of Rajasthan, merged with the democratic India, in 1949. The Mewar Kings subsequently also lost their special royal privileges and titles. The successive Maharanas, however, retained their ownership of the palaces in Udaipur and converted parts of the palace complex into heritage hotels.

We tend to celebrate light in our pictures. Understanding how light interacts with the camera is paramount to the work we do. The temperature, intensity and source of light can wield different photography effect on the same subject or scene; add ISO, aperture and speed, the camera, the lens type, focal length and filters…the combination is varied ad multi-layered and if you know how to use them all, you will come to appreciate that all lights are useful, even those surrounded by a lot of darkness.
We are guided by three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, our longing to capture in print, that which is beautiful, the constant search for the one picture, and constant barrage of new equipment and style of photography. These passions, like great winds, have blown us across the globe in search of the one and we do understand the one we do look for might be this picture right here for someone else out there.
“A concise poem about our work as stated elow
A place without being
a thought without thinking
creatively, two dimensions
suspended animation
possibly a perfect imitation
of what was then to see.
A frozen memory in synthetic colour
or black and white instead,
fantasy dreams in magazines
become imbedded inside my head.
Artistic views
surrealistic hues,
a photographer’s instinctive eye:
for he does as he pleases
up to that point he releases,
then develops a visual high.
- M R Abrahams

My contribution to the Burtonesque photo competition. I've always loved his movies, and wanted to capture the loneliness of his characters, but in the short moments when they actually find happiness... the visual inspiration to this image came from the scene in Edward Scissorhands when Winona Ryder's character dances in the snow, just before the tragic end. The birds and cages are to make the image "me".

This is a image from the middle falls at Gooseberry Falls State Park. Taken on a beautiful spring day, way up north.
As you can see there was quite a bit of spring runoff coming from the hills. This is why the water has a brownish tinge to it.
