Two cases in a camera store on the Kowloon Peninsula in the Hong Kong S.A.R.. The left case has a number of Leica M cameras (too indistinct to tell what model), and a few Contaflexes, as well as other cameras I can't identify. The right case seems to be for long telephotos on the bottom shelf and a number of TLR cases (unknown if they have cameras inside...) This store is in a building with quite a number of stores inside, (including at least 3 camera stores...) on Kimberly Road near the Tsim Sha Tsui MRT station. (see geotag...) Taken by a just-purchased Nikon F3HP (from this store...) with a Nikkor 50mm ƒ 1.4 AF-D lens (from my D610...) on Fujicolor Pro 400H film (also purchased from this store...)

Japan is known for its Kobe Beef. The Kuromom Ichiba Market has many vendors selling the product. The marbling content is one factor used in determining the price you pay.
From notesofnomads.com
Kobe beef comes from the Tajima-gyu breed of cattle found in Japan's Hyōgo Prefecture, of which Kobe is the capital and the meat's namesake.
Introduced as work animals in the rice cultivation industry during the 2nd Century, Tajima-gyu became isolated from other breeds in the small pockets of arable land within Japan's mountainous landscape.
Herd isolation and distinctive feeding techniques are said to have led to unique differences in taste and texture.
Kobe beef is renowned for its superior flavor, tenderness and high amount of intramuscular fat, giving the meat a marbled appearance.
The complete set of all dolls in the 2015 Disney Fairytale Designer Collection, Heroes and Villains series. They placed side by side in their unopened boxes, covered by their slipcovers. They are in the order in which they were placed in the shipping carton. They are in front of my KidKraft Snowflake Mansion, with the Disney Parks Snow Queen Elsa small figurine doing her presentation gesture at the top of the staircase.
My pre-ordered full set of the 2015 Disney Fairytale Designer Collection Heroes and Villains dolls arrived after a delay on November 6, 2015. I had ordered them at the D23 Expo on August 14, 2015. They are all edition number of 65 of 6000. They came in perfect condition, and I think most if not all the dolls are better than the ones I bought separately (which I have deboxed or will debox). By the way, I got 5 gift bags in this shipment, and got another 5 in a separate shipment. So like most people who pre-ordered the full collection, I am getting twice as many bags as I should have.
Here are my first photos of the set, taken with flash. They were taken in front of my KidKraft Snowflake Mansion. I will later take photos of my deboxed Designer dolls next to these dolls, which I will leave boxed. But before I do that I will have to debox the Rapunzel and Mother Gothel set and the Snow Queen Elsa and Hans set.
This is a really cool place. The shop has a great philosophy and gives employees paid time off and good benefits. All potato doughnuts and they are amazing! FYI: Potato donuts are GLUTEN FREE.
Sejmet (/ˈsɛkˌmɛt/), Sekhmet, Sacmis or Nesert (/ˈsækmᵻs/) was a goddess in Egyptian mythology, a symbol of strength and power. She was considered the goddess of war and revenge, but also the goddess of healing. It was said that her breath created the desert.
Mummies of Ancient Eggypt: Rediscovering 6 Lives
From July 14 to October 26, the CaixaForum Madrid cultural space hostsed an exhibition made up of a collection of objects on loan from the British Museum in London, which explores the idea of mummification and analyzes the testimony of six people who lived in the Ancient Egypt.
This sample contains six mummies of people who lived between 900 and 150 BC. C. in Egypt. Thus, through a non-invasive investigation carried out with the most modern technology, the discoveries that have been achieved by the hand of these specimens are exhibited.
Through scientific and historical evidence, it is possible to observe what life was like in these lands, the tools and techniques used for mummification, the medicinal recipes with which they were cured, the diet of those people, cosmetics and adornments, music, cultural exchanges and even the role of women and children in the Egypt of the pharaohs.
Mummification became a common practice in ancient Egypt, believing that the body had to be preserved in order to reach the afterlife. For them death was just the beginning and this represented the separation between the body and the soul.
The first mummies are dated between 4000 and 3000 BC. C. and it is thought that this practice could have come from accidentally unearthing some corpses, which had dried due to the heat of the desert. By keeping much of their physical appearance, they tried to manually mimic this preservation. In this way, they dried the deceased by extracting the viscera from the body and then dehydrated them with natron and embalmed them.

This is my Littlest Pet Shop collection as of November 2008. It includes some McDonald's pets I have taken the plastic bases off of, and has been expanded since this photo was taken.

Finally found a perfect display case for my LEGO Collectible Minifigures! The display is a higher quality plastic than I'm used to when it comes to display cases. Seems much stronger. There are rubber feet (dots) at all 4 corners to prevent the case from slipping.
I worked for a short while in order to come up with a nice configuration of these figures. Wanted the back row to be raised so that you could see most of each figure in the back row. I wanted there to be some space in between figures and I wanted to have symmetry in terms of space. With this display case I was able to achieve my goals.
I bought the case at AC Moore. They were on sale last week for 40% off. Each one cost me about $13 and I bought 4 of them so I can have the same display for the first 4 series of these figs (if there are 4 series-at this rate though there could be more!).
The company that makes this display case is called MCS Industries, Inc and this in in the "Collector's Museum" line of their products. The dimensions are 15.5inX3.5inX3.25in.
Soon I'll do the same thing for Series 2 but with Blue bricks to match the color of the packs.

One of my favourite decorative items in our home. Andrew and I found an old wooden tool box at the recycling yard. We added more sections to the drawers and it's now a display case for our little treasures.
A quick construction of a minifgure Display for my "official" and custom HP mini figures. The shadow boxes are from IKEA (BAS c. 2009) and the "Hogwart-y" building built around. The back uses Technic pieces for release of the boxes.
Also gives me the capability to extend as the collection (and my organization) develops.

After our pork dinner, we decided to take a little walk around our neighborhood — Mapo-gu. It was already late, around 10 PM, and almost everything was closed. The streets were quiet, the shop windows dark… and then — unexpectedly, we stumbled upon a true island of joy in the middle of all that silence.
✨ Bright, yellow, glowing — it was MEGA COFFEE.
I peeked inside — this is a well-known Korean café chain you simply can’t miss. It’s famous for its giant-sized drinks, cheerful yellow interiors, and ultra-Instagrammable menu 🍹💛
Here’s what was displayed in the window (left to right) — it all looked like something from a dessert fairytale:
1. 큐브라떼 (Cube Latte) — iced latte with chocolate or jelly cubes, MEGA COFFEE’s signature drink
2. 🍪 쿠키프라페 (Cookie Frappe) — Oreo shake topped with whipped cream and cookie crumble
3. 🍓 스트로베리치즈 (Strawberry Cheese) — strawberry cheesecake frappe with real cheesecake chunks
4. 🍓 딸기통크런치 (Strawberry Crunch) — strawberry frappe topped with cereal (with a “추천” sticker — “recommended”)
5. 🌿 민트초코쉐이크 (Mint Choco Shake) — mint chocolate shake with a thick layer of whipped cream
6. 🍊 허니자몽티 (Honey Grapefruit Tea) — refreshing tea with honey, grapefruit, lime, and ice
⸻
💛 What makes MEGA COFFEE special:
• The drink sizes are truly mega
• Iced Americano for just 1,500 won (you can even see it on the banner at the entrance!)
• A massive menu: frappes, shakes, teas, juices, lattes
• Constantly updated seasonal and aesthetic creations — with cereal, pudding, whipped colors, and more
This is your classic Korean dessert café experience — a place where students and young people don’t just grab a drink, they stay for hours with something pretty in hand

That night, we didn’t end up getting anything — we were just way too full after dinner.
But the next morning… of course, we came back ☕💛

I originally posted a version of this photo here, but I'd always been a bit bothered by how dark it looked so I decided to have another go at adjusting the colour and contrast, and here it is.

Taweret bears physical aspects of both a fertility goddess and a fearsome protective deity. She takes the form of a female hippopotamus, a highly deadly creature. She is also often seen with features from other predatory creatures, most notably being the tail of a Nile crocodile and the paws of a lioness.

In case you didn't know, I started a blog to share my ramblings on photography and most everything else that's on my mind. Today's post looks at the thought process behind converting a portrait to black and white or keeping it in color. Click and share if you want, but don't expect me to spam the blog everyday!

While on vacation in the Wisconsin Dells Denise and I went to downtown and walked the main drag. One of our stops was the Goody Gum Drops Candy store. If you want to get a specific flavor or make your own blend of Jelly Bellys . this is a place to go. This is only one side of the Jelly Belly dispensers. As you can see there are a LOT of choices. It isn't level intentionally... due to a sugar overload. Thank you for your comments and faves.

A place to spend several days - and probably one of the most wonderful museums of the world. The Ashmolean covers 10.000 years of human history and is a must to see when somewhere near Oxford.
I took these Two Photographs of Displays at the World of Coca Cola Museum in Atlanta, Georgia. This Display Honors Retired NASCAR Driver Tony Steward, who Drove the Number 20 Pontiac Grand Prix Home Depot Car during the 1999, 2000 & 2001 NASCAR Racing Seasons. The Model Car at the bottom of my Photograph is too small to be able to verify the Model Year of the Pontiac Grand Prix in the Display Case.
Pharmacist John Stith Pemberton invented Coca Cola in 1886. The Coca Cola Museum fronts on a small park near the Hilton Garden Inn Hotel where we stayed during our visit to Atlanta. The World of Coca Cola Museum is located at 121 Baker Street NW, Atlanta, GA 30313.
In June 2018, my wife & I attended a Family Wedding at the Hilton Garden Inn, 275 Baker Street in Atlanta, Georgia. One end the hallway on the on the 13 Floor (they call it Floor PH) gave me a Great View of the CSX Tracks, while the other end of the hallway gave me a great view of the Skyview Ferris Wheel across the street from Centennial Olympic Park.
Since we were in Atlanta for several days, I had some time to visit the Coca Cola Museum, which was a short 2 blocks away from our Hotel.
