Boiler controls and hot water tank going in before the cupboard for them is made and electric sockets and flooring etc coming out. A spare bedroom days before seen during the conversion to a bathroom.

Meccano conversion sets started life as 'A' sets but later became 'X'.
It was a great idea. Someone bought you (say) a set 3 for your birthday and you could buy a set 3X to make up a set 4 and so on until you had the dream of every Meccano child - the set 10.
As soon as I saw this image, the idea of black/white popped quickly into my head. So here it is out of my head. For those colorists, the original is in comments. So easy to change anything nowadays, no?
A monochrome version of an older shot of our cat Mini, when she got too close to the camera one day. I was taking 'close ups' of flowers when her face suddenly appeared, and gave me quite a fright!!!
I'm trying to improve my post-processing skills. Unfortunately for me, Mini had been rolling on the ground just before taking this so I've had to take a lot of 'specks' out. Plus the b&w conversion, in silver efex. I don't think I've ever had a file with so many layers before. All thoughts are welcome!
Have a great weekend, everyone!

In una zona ad alta concentrazione di scrigni storico-artistici, giusto tra la Cattedrale e il Palazzo arcivescovile, si trova la chiesa dei Santissimi Pietro e Paolo, edificata alla fine del ‘600 come cappella dell’adiacente Infermeria dei Sacerdoti, oggi nella sua veste del 1897 dell’architetto Francesco Paolo Palazzotto, che in quel “distretto” non sfigura affatto. Basti osservare il fastoso portale disegnato da Paolo Amato con colonne tortili fiorate e coronato dalla statua dell’Immacolata che immette nell’edificio.
L’interno, progettato dallo stesso architetto, è un’unica aula con due altari laterali con nicchie, frontoni curvi e spezzati, e sculture illuminate dalla luce proveniente dalle grandi finestre. Le statue dei due santi cui è dedicata la chiesa sono state realizzate da Vincenzo Messina. Non manca la mano della superstar dell’epoca, Giacomo Serpotta, cui sono attribuiti gli stucchi che rappresentano le “Allegorie di Ercole” che decorano l’altare di San Ferdinando, le allegorie della Verginità e della Vittoria dell’altare di Santa Rosa, e i due medaglioni con “La Consegna delle chiavi a San Pietro” e “La conversione di San Paolo” sui pilastri del presbiterio. La volta raffigurante “L’Incoronazione della Vergine” è stata affrescata da Filippo Tancredi nel 1697.

Andrey Blokhin e Georgy Kuznetsov,( Krasnodar, Russia) realizzano Conversion , che è un progetto site specific allestito nella chiesa di Sant’Antonin, in Venezia.
L’immaginario, la dimensione estetica e parte dell’iconografia, scelta dagli artisti per l’opera, fanno riferimento a temi religiosi di un passato, probabilmente rinascimentale.
L’effetto è molto interessante: entrando nella chiesa sembra di avere a che fare con un restauro in atto ( effetto attribuibile alle impalcature ) e contemporaneamente con l’olografica presenza di fantasmi, dovuta a la rete plastica che struttura l’opera.
Il tema centrale, che tratta con ironia della nuova fede tecnologica rivolta all’uso della rete (e segnatamente di facebook), è un po’ trito e rischia di rendere banale un lavoro formalmente molto suggestivo
Did you enjoy the snow? I know it can be frustrating being around this much snow but it can also be very interesting. We spent last few days running around chasing snow and I got exhausted, so much that I needed 2 days to get back in the mood to edit some of these images. What do you think?
This shot was done by using a plastic holder for remote controllers, placed it side way against a glass table, place the audio cable in it, shone a LED light on the top to create that flare on table.
End result not that bad with reflections that added some interestingness in the shot.
New Zion Methodist Church, Sabine County, near Geneva, Texas
Seeing a sign for a cemetery, and wanting to get out and stretch my legs, I turned down a dirt lane. It was a bit further than planned, but eventually I came upon an old church with a nearby graveyard. More on this to come.

The out building at this old farm on the fells above Grosmont on the North Yorkshire Moors has been converted into a dwelling.
The old roller would be use for rolling grass and hidden in the vegetation I believe is a drag for spreading mole hills

Another slide to digital conversion from my worldly walk about long long ago.
This is in Morocco, late 1970's.
Despite appearances, all these gents were actually very friendly. Honest.
My travel buddy at the time was another American girl. We'd gone to this town and in wandering around found this small, dirt road side street where the affordable "restaurants" were.....meaning cheap, and patronized by locals.
The proprietors of the restaurants are standing in the doors. Inside, it was just one small room, you sat on the floor on thick straw mats, ate off low tables, and there was always plenty of hot sweet mint tea.
We'd go to the open air market, buy veggies, potatoes, whatever we felt like, bring it back to one of these rooms and they'd cook an unbelievable tagine (stew) with it, in clay pots, in fire fueled ovens.
We'd drop off our purchases and come back in an hour, buy our bread here, and go in to eat.
We were the only females, but we were welcome and treated respectfully. We knew a few words in Arabic (very few), some of the men inside knew a few in English, but they spoke French and I was still a bit familiar with broken high school French.
What we couldn't say in words, we'd mime.
And we'd eat.
Some of the best meals I've had, and some of the most pleasant dining experiences.
Have a nice weekend.
This image was taken at Ogwen Valley, Looking out from Cwm Idwal to Pen yr Ole Wen. When I took this image, I knew it had the possibility of being a black and white, more so that colour as the patches of blue sky were quite strong. One of the aspects of black and white photography I love is being able to get that blue sky, jet black.

A conversion to black & white using Silver Efex Pro 2 where I used a Titanium Toner and the worked with color filters to bring out a much richer tonal contrast for the final image on this overcast and rainy day.
