Can we say Bell Keeper's irresponsible?
Why does this progress have to be?
Old Bell out of action, what do we see?
Confronted by this new atrocity
OK, so the new Taco Bell next-door (1171 Main St.) isn't exactly atrocious, although I'm sure some would disagree! Either way, this is one pic dreaded but expected. On a Wednesday when I took the "Tea in the Drive-Thru" photo, the old road sign was up, by Friday it was unceremoniously knocked to the ground. It did appear days later some guys may have been mulling over de-branding this old structure, obviously that has already started here.
One would like to think this will still look like a mission-style Taco Bell when it's all over, stay tuned...

The church of the Holy Innocents at High Beach, Epping Forest, is a delightful building of entirely 19th century origin which I have driven past many times and have occasionally photographed on the outside. However I was lucky enough to spot the church doors were open one Saturday while out with 'MCE' and we met the ladies of the church who were tidying up after an event. They kindly showed us around inside and are clearly very proud of their building.

The church history is somewhat complicated but the shorthand version is that the present building was built in 1873 by local man Thomas Baring [of Baring Brothers' Bank] who was a parish warden at the old church and who offered to build the new church at his own expense provided he could have the final say in the design.
The architect was Arthur Blomfield [later Sir Arthur] who chose the Early English style. Poet John Betjeman later said Blomfield could: "turn out an impressive church in almost any style". The design consists of an apsidal chancel, transepts, a nave and a north west tower. It cost £5,500 to build.
Curiously the parish, which had first started at the St.Paul's site elsewhere in 1836, appeared to exist somewhat outside the church hierachy. Although opened without ceremony on June 22, 1873, the new church was only licenced for Sunday services and baptisms with all weddings still being performed at St.Paul's.
Indeed the new church was not actually consecrated until 11 years later, in 1883, and only after a petition for consecration to the Bishop. Two days after the consecration the vicar applied to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for the church to be made a parish church only to find that he first needed the permission of the vicar of nearby Waltham Cross.
The original parish area had been taken out of Waltham Cross's orbit in 1836 but no signed waiver existed from Waltham Cross over the parish fees. All this came as a surprise to the vicar of Waltham Cross as he had exercised no claim over the fees and didn't even know he was entitled to them. However he was a good sport and willingly signed a waiver on all fees paving the way to parish church status.
The earlier St.Paul's church was finally demolished in 1885 following vandalism by day trippers who now flocked to Epping Forest from the East End of London and because the earlier church was poorly sited and needed repairs. The old site is near Lippitts Hill but contains no traces of the 1836 building.
Today Holy Innocents has a tower and spire 125 feet high and the tower contains thirteen hemispherical bells cast in 1873 at Whitechapel Foundry. These are not controlled by traditional bell ropes but by a carillon, a framework of wooden handles which control hammers in the belfrey. Mrs Jane Begley demonstrated these to MCE and myself. She explained the sheet music uses a simple numbered notation and - after a little prodding by myself - MCE had a go and was soon broadcasting "All Things Bright and Beautiful" over a three or four mile radius of Epping Forest which made for an interesting afternoon. My thanks to Mrs Begley for her patience and enthusiasm.
There is some controversy over the spelling of 'High Beech' or 'High Beach' and Mrs Begley pointed out that the carpet in the chancel hedges its bets by including both spellings [see photos].

Horse driven carriages, and that also for entertainment purpose are nowadays almost a story of the myth in most parts of the World. Kolkata is one of the places where one can still see this happening. Its a roaring business around the Victoria Memorial Hall in weekends and on Holidays. The current picture shows 3 drivers with their carriages waiting outside Victoria Memorial Hall in search of passengers.

It's difficult to read this much text while driving... especially at 60 MPH and trying to hold the camera steady! Garmin FAIL!
A cartel driven SUV that was part of a two vehicle attempt to cross the border in the early hours of May 14, 2016, lies on the Mexican side of the border.
While the perpetrators were able to cut through the steel barrier with a cutting torch, this Ford SUV became buried in the sand when the perpetrators attempted to pull the large piece of the barrier that they had cut free into Mexico, in order to drive their vehicle(s) into the United States.
The Border Patrol spent the rest of the day playing "wack-a-mole" with about ten individuals from this group who were trying to cross the border without the use of their vehicles.
The SUV had California plates but the one on the front didn't match the one on the back, the vehicle looked like it was built from more than one car and the whole scene just screamed "half ass."

Wind driven rain and sea. I just love a bit of a gale. I tried down the pier a bit but it was SO wet! Makes for dire photography but just had to do something.

I've driven past this cool Katipunan (KKK) themed street art on a side street of Ramon Magsaysay Boulevard in Manila for years, but I only had time to actually stop and photograph it the other day, September 15, 2022.
I thought to shoot a small behind the scenes vlog also since people often ask me where I find these neat spots in the city to photograph.
Also on that same street is a Street Side Grotto, which was very fortuitous for me, since I've been photographing these little vernacular street altars for over a decade now, and I often driven past one but was unprepared to photograph. Luckily that day I had my stuff with me and had the extra time to do so.

I was driven by this restaurant door in Sayville Long Island, on July 4, 2009, after an early dinner on the water. The open door mural painted on the fully closed door of the restaurant is cutely creative. But it is also a great reminder for tough stages in life, when one can feel enslaved by circumstances but knowing that Independence Day is here and now, right in front of us.

Grok: The key is the aviation detail: on Saturday, April 11, long-range propeller-driven aircraft carrying 66 passengers began to be replaced by jet aircraft accommodating 850 passengers. This points to a significant shift in aviation technology. Historically, propeller-driven aircraft like the Douglas DC-7 or Lockheed Super Constellation, common in the 1950s and early 1960s, carried around 60-100 passengers. The introduction of large jet aircraft, such as the Boeing 747 (which could carry up to 660-850 passengers in early configurations), began in the late 1960s, with commercial service starting around 1970. However, no specific record pinpoints April 11 as the exact date for this transition in New Zealand. The closest match is the gradual replacement of aircraft like the DC-8 (up to 259 passengers) or early 747s in the late 1960s to early 1970s. For Christchurch, Air New Zealand’s shift to jets like the Boeing 737 or DC-10 on international routes aligns with this period, particularly around 1970-1973.The mention of “eleven cinemas and theatres within the environs of Cathedral Square” suggests a vibrant cultural hub, typical of Christchurch’s central city before the 2011 earthquake reshaped it. A “southeasterly aspect, aerial view” likely shows the pre-earthquake layout, with landmarks like the Christchurch Cathedral dominating the square. The note that “only two buildings have been replaced” in the decade prior to this “lifetime ago” suggests a relatively stable cityscape, pointing to a time before major urban redevelopment or seismic disruption—likely the 1960s or early 1970s.The “Great Kiwi Brain Drain” refers to the emigration of skilled New Zealanders, particularly to Australia, the UK, and beyond, seeking better opportunities. This phenomenon gained momentum in the 1970s, driven by economic stagnation, high taxes, and global demand for talent. The shift to larger, faster jets would have facilitated this diaspora, making international travel more accessible and symbolizing the ease of leaving New Zealand.
