Diagonal of Diagon Alley
A simple picture of an alley in Athens after sun-down. Most shops were closed.
If it were not for that parked car, i'd like the shot more.
The nice colors, lines, diagonals, lovely light and a guy at the far end walking towards the camera still made it.
Enriched color, added a diagonal blur to take up the Diagon Alley metaphor for this lovely evening in a wonderful city.
Fun slide to this sunday. HSS!
... Yeh-up. That 'bout sums it up.

One of my attempts at the "Crazy Tuesday" theme "A Special Still Life".
(The theme was creativng a still life consisting of three things, which have nothing to do with each other.)

I reimagined Majisto’s Tower #1906 for the CCC’s Return of the GOAT contest. Dragon Masters has always been my favorite LEGO theme (and favorite castle faction). Initially, I planned to re-do Majisto’s Magical Workshop #6048, after building a micro version. But others have created their renditions of it and Majisto’s Tower seemed more fitting for a castle contest.
Released in 1994, Majisto's Tower, set #1906, was sold only in (North?) America. It came with many terrific parts (190 pieces total) for the price ($20).
The back of the box was printed with an awesome castle, which I incorporated into my build. The color scheme of the paved ground came from this depiction while the foliage covered ground came from the green baseplate of the original set. Sadly, I do not have the box anymore (or cannot find it).
My recreation is approximately twice the size of the original in each dimension. The building portion is about 60% bigger; I expanded the ground and landscaping to fill up the rest. I kept the prominent features: the two towers and gateway as they were in the original and the rocks are in approximately the same place as the BURPs.
I imagined this tower being built at the top of a hill with a cliff drop-off to the left and behind. For this reason, I built the rockwork along the whole back side without a proper wall, true to the original.
A key element from the set is the spiral staircase up to Majisto’s tower. I built mine in the reverse direction as exiting the stairs off the model seemed strange. But to make it fit, I added a balcony off the back of the tower.
I added some potions, candles and a bookshelf to the expanded tower. Like the official set, I kept this room open. This makes it both easy to see the magical equipment and keep the play features from the original set.
As a kid, my eye was quickly drawn to the printed dragons over the entry arch and tower window. Rather than reuse the printed pieces, I brick-built them.

I overhauled my avatar and I've been doing little edits ever since. I feel like I've come a long way since that first picture of 2020! (featured in the Polaroid)

My work for FANDOM, a show that was on at ATVP (At the Vanishing Point).
King Street, Newtown, Sydney.

If the asymmetric placement of those switches causes you distress, feel free to look away. I've tried to push them into the background by not chasing the depth of field. Despite that, they're still there, and I can't unsee them.
There's a long term interest in railways in my family going back to around the 1840s. Mostly it was payday! Never, to my knowledge, has it taken over to the exclusion of all else. Sure, I was on the inaugural run of the rebuilt locomotive 6029. There, I became alarmed at overheard conversations between complete and utter railway tragics.
I have been acquainted with Railway Historical Society volunteers. Interestingly, each and every one of them was able to peel off their overalls to reveal an otherwise normal human underneath. Never, until that day behind 6029, had I been exposed to the full immersion minutiae of railway fandom. I think what really alarmed me was the conversation between two twenty-somethings about which version of coal trucks, and their code numbers, that they had catalogued, and what colliery they'd come from.
Gosh, I forgot to write down the number of the carriage I was on with this fan. Do I feel myself a failure? No, not at this, anyway. Instead, I'm intrigued about how complete the amenities were in this old carriage, and what a lovely job of restoration has been done, right down to this fan.

My second shelf is full of fandom related dolls like Homestuck and My Little Pony though a few other dolls have snuck onto there.
