3D red/cyan anaglyph created from glass plate stereograph at Library of Congress - Prints & Photographs Online Catalog: www.loc.gov/pictures/
LOC Title: Richmond, Virginia. Ballard house on Franklin Street
Date: April 1865
Photographer: John Reekie
Notes: A famous hotel and Richmond landmark for over half a century, there are hundreds of references to the Ballard House in the Library of Congress digital newspaper collection. I've transcribed a few below and for some more, including an interesting account of Col. Mosby meeting Generals Lee & Pickett here at the hotel, see my other postings.
Alexandria Gazette – July 21, 1865
"Applications for Pardons.
About a hundred and fifty applications for pardon were received at Washington by the Attorney General yesterday, among them….John P. Ballard, owner of the Ballard House at Richmond, recently seized under the confiscation act….”

“THE BAPTIST CITY MISSION
A Great Work Set on Foot by the Baptists of Richmond.
"NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSES” The Old Ballard House Turned
Into One and Work Has Commenced.
The old Ballard House, corner of Franklin and Fourteenth Streets, has in recent years become a cheap tenement house, and in a general way has gone to rack. It is located in a section that policemen and others regard as about the most unsavory part of Richmond….. The old Ballard House has been leased and eight rooms fitted up for the work, thus carrying the gospel directly to those most needing it.”
The Washington Evening Star - June 27, 1920
“Richmond Landmark To Go
Richmond, Va., June 26 (Special). – Another of the landmarks of the city is soon to disappear - the old Ballard House. Charles Dickens and wife were entertained there in 1842, and in 1860 the establishment furnished entertainment for the then Prince of Wales, later King Edward VII. President Rutherford B. Hayes was a guest in 1877. The Marquis of Lorne came in 1883.”
Notes on anaglyph: At the extreme left, missing from one side of the stereograph - everything from where the man is leading the horse to the edge - including the striped pole, sections of the buildings, and the carriage. I copied those from the other side and layered them in, adjusting their positions for the 3D effect. I also exercised some of my "artistic license" with the carriage wheel, copying the right half and flipping it horizontally to get the left half, for a 3d impression of a complete wheel - as opposed to presenting a blacked-out corner. The overall shape of the original photo was circular, so getting some good crops out it was like "fitting a square peg in a round hole." -PT

In a window of sunshine during a break from the overnight rain which is supposed to start up again and continue for the rest of the day, I took a wander around downtown Grimsby, Ontario this morning to see what Spring colours are now showing up. After a prolonged and nasty winter, everything seems to be running about 2 weeks behind the usual blooming periods. But it seems that one of the local businesses located on the corner of Main and Ontario Streets has taken matters in its own hands and adopted a spring-like pastel colour theme on its side wall. That, combined with the message on its window, ‘Create Joy’, simply said Spring. - JW

El Museo de Anclas Philippe Cousteau se eleva en forma de atalaya en la península de La Peñona, un promontorio de la naturaleza rodeado de mar, en uno de los extremos de la playa de Salinas, localidad situada en el Concejo de Castrillón (Principado de Asturias).
Este Museo está concebido como un conjunto monumental al aire libre, donde se resalta la belleza de las anclas, que junto con el Templo de los Océanos, o el busto de Philippe Cousteau, proporcionan un interés añadido a una "Peñona" que siempre tuvo un carácter mítico para los castrillonenses.
Es una creación original para rendir un homenaje continuado de amor a la mar y a sus gentes, a toda la cultura que representa.
El mismo nombre escogido para la denominación del Museo, es la síntesis del origen vital y universalidad con que el propio Philippe Cousteau se refería a la mar.
La Cofradía Buena Mesa de la Mar cuando decidió crear este Museo, pensó que Philippe Cousteau, hijo del gran oceanógrafo Jacques I.
Cousteau, podía ser quien representase con su ejemplo de juventud y dedicación a la mar hasta el último suspiro de su vida, ese homenaje eterno a la mar y a sus gentes.
Es un Museo singular, está al aire libre y cualquier persona puede acceder a él en cualquier momento, sus "puertas", siempre están abiertas para su visita.

The very name chosen for the name of the museum, is the synthesis of vital origin and universality with Philippe Cousteau himself referred to sea.
The Brotherhood of the Sea Good Food when he decided to create this museum, thought that Philippe Cousteau, son of the great oceanographer Jacques I.
Cousteau could be who represent youth by his example and dedication to the sea until the last breath of his life, that eternal tribute to the sea and its people.

Thanks to our old friend Alexander Pope for the inspiration via his lovely quote: "To err is human, to forgive divine." Which has been modified and twisted many, many times over, and here once again.

Hello All-
This was last card for the evening. I had to use my favorite color - Orange and Kraft. Here;s the end result and I love it!
First, I stamped the Kraft cardstock using HA Cling Stamp Dots using VersaMark ink and then heat embossed it using clear powder.
I stamped the WHITE cardstock using the HA Friend Definition Stamp - CL125. I used the HA Hue Ink in Sand. I then used Distress Ink Spice Orange on the front and edges. I stamped the flower and the word sentiment. Lastly, I used some Prima Flowers in white, distressed them using the Spice Orange. I also stamped the flowers with the Friend Definition Stamp to add some fun.
Thanks for stopping by!
Part of the Azabudai Hills complex in Tokyo, Japan, this building showcases a refined approach to urban architecture. Its rounded vertical panels and golden-bronze facade create a striking interplay of light and shadow, adding depth and character to the structure. The building is seamlessly integrated into its surroundings, with a tiered base that connects to the pedestrian-friendly spaces of this mixed-use development. The metallic finish contrasts beautifully with the glass-and-steel skyscrapers nearby, emphasizing material diversity within Tokyo’s skyline.
Designed as a key element of Azabudai Hills, this structure reflects the complex’s emphasis on blending aesthetics with functionality. The accessible pathways and landscaped areas surrounding the building highlight a commitment to inclusive and thoughtful urban planning. The facade’s dynamic surface evolves throughout the day, capturing the essence of Tokyo’s ever-changing light and energy. As a part of one of the city’s newest and most ambitious redevelopment projects, this building exemplifies the forward-thinking design and attention to detail that define the Azabudai Hills complex.
In this photoshop tutorial we will use some photo manipulation techniques to create sexy robot girl. We will use some filters, blending mods and textures.
