The side of the former Palace Cinema, Conwy.
The Palace Cinema has a chequered history, closing as a cinema and running as a Bingo hall until before the Pandemic. Later, there was a cafe/restaurant upstairs, though this appears to have now gone and plans are afoot to re-open the restaurant under a new name and reputation.

Why would the sky look like a giant fan? Airglow. The featured intermittent green glow appeared to rise from a lake through the arch of our Milky Way Galaxy, as captured last summer next to Bryce Canyon in Utah, USA. The unusual pattern was created by atmospheric gravity waves, ripples of alternating air pressure that can grow with height as the air thins, in this case about 90 kilometers up. Unlike auroras powered by collisions with energetic charged particles and seen at high latitudes, airglow is due to chemiluminescence, the production of light in a chemical reaction. More typically seen near the horizon, airglow keeps the night sky from ever being completely dark. via NASA ift.tt/1lRVIJA
I made this desk out of an Ikea closet organizer. I needed something with a pretty small footprint and the dimensions of the organizer fit the bill. I just added a keyboard tray. This system has two added benefits. I can turn it into a standing desk without too much difficult, and I can add storage as needed. The chair is a fully adjustable Sayl from Herman Miller. This chair is advertised as inexpensive, but is more than double the base price once one adds all of the ergo adjustments. I had an Aeron for several years before this and much prefer the Sayl for its adjustability, size, and colours.
Alice Auaa was established in 1995 by the self-taught Osaka-based designer Yasutaka Funakoshi after he had spent two years importing Punk, Fetish, New Wave and Gothic clothing from London. While Alice Auaa promotes itself through magazines such as the iconic Gothic & Lolita Bible, its concern with S&M, bondage and Gothic horror set it apart from mainstream Gothic Lolita labels.

Japanese street style: Gothic Lolita
Gothic Lolita emerged during the 1990s, inspired by the theatrical outfits worn by members of Visual Kei rock bands. One of the most influential of these was Malice Mizer (1992–2001), whose leader Mana established the Moi-même-Moitié fashion label in 1999. Visual Kei and Gothic Lolita owe much to the 1980s British Gothic Rock scene and the androgyny associated with David Bowie, Marc Bolan and their New Romantic successors. Despite their often ghoulish appearance, Gothic Lolitas are no less concerned with innocence and cuteness than their Sweet Lolita counterparts.
Part of the V&A exhibition - Kitty and the Bulldog: Lolita fashion and the influence of Britain
(23 April 2012 – 27 January 2013)
Kitty and the Bulldog explores the way in which British fashion – notably Victoriana, Punk and Gothic – has influenced the development of Japan’s ‘Lolita’ style, a cult fashion movement whose defining feature has been its preoccupation with cuteness, or ‘kawaii’. The display features nine outfits recently bought in Tokyo for the V&A's permanent collections.

So I uploaded some of my pics to the American Landscapes competition and today they did a feature on my shot as part of the promotion. It's pretty cool to see my pics on a website.
Singapore National Day Parade
Singapore celebrated its first National Day as an independent nation in 1966, one year after Singapore's separation from Malaysia on 9 August 1965.
The first National Day Parade started in the morning at 9:00 a.m. that day. People came as early as 7:00 a.m. in order to get good vantage points. Singapore's first President, Mr Yusof bin Ishak and Singapore's first Prime Minister, Mr Lee Kuan Yew, were seated with members of the government at the grandstand on the steps of City Hall. When the parade began, 6 military contingents (including the Singapore Infantry Regiment, SPDF and the then Republic of Singapore Police), a mobile column from the SIR, and various schools and civil contingents marched past City Hall and then into the city streets. Three military bands accompanied the parade inspection and later the march past with military music. The Singapore Fire Brigade also took part in this first parade with its firetrucks included in the mobile column. Rounding it all was a massed lion and dragon dance performance from drum and dragon troupes nationwide.
The following year, the contingents increased to 76, including those of the then established Singapore Armed Forces, the RSP and more cultural groups, with the addition of more civil marching groups. The reason is partly due to the introduction of the National Service program in the military and police forces, and later extended to the Fire Brigade, later called the Singapore Fire Services in the 1970s. Street performances by various groups also debuted in that year's parade. The 1968 edition, although held on a rainy morning that surprised even the marching contingents and the dignitaries, saw the first ground performances on the Padang as the weather improved - a prelude to today's show performances. 1969's parade, the one where the Mobile Column made its first drivepast, commemorated the 150th year of the city's founding and had Princess Alexandra of the UK as principal guest.
On the August 9, 1970 NDP edition, the Flypast of the State Flag and the Republic of Singapore Air Force Flypast debuted. A combat simulation performance by Singapore Army personnel was one of the new highlights for that year.
The 1971 NDP was the first to include the iconic mobile parade floats from various organizations. Choirs also debuted on that year's edition.
The 1973 parade was held from the afternoon to early evening for the first time to attract more attendance from the public. The next year, colour broadcasts of the parade on television began.
The 1975 parades, held to celebrate Singapore's 10th year, were for the first time decentralized into 13 parade venues for more public participation. Almost all of them lasted for an hour and all of them even had route marches on the streets to the participating venues.
By the time the NDP was held at the National Stadium (for the first time) in 1976, the NDP Guard of Honour, composed of officers and personnel of the SAF and the Singapore Police Force made its first appearance, followed after the parade proper by the very first evening presentations by various groups, a prelude to future evening NDPs in 1980 and from 1984 onward. 1977's parade was a decentralized event like two years before (and like 1968's was damped by the rain) while 1978 would see the parade back at the Padang grounds. 1979's parade was yet another decentralized one, held in several high schools and sports stadiums nationwide.
The 1980 parade, held at the National Stadium, almost rained at the start, but the performances went on as planned as the weather improved later. This was the first parade in which the feu de joie of the Guard-of-Honour contingents made its inaugural appearance. 1981's NDP was the very first parade appearance of the then SPF Civil Defense Command, presently the Singapore Civil Defense Force, later combined with the SFS in 1989. (The SCDF of today showed itself for the first time in the 1982 NDP held in the Padang.) They were held in two decentralised venues, Jurong and Queenstown Sports Stadiums for further increase public attendance and participation in the celebrations. 1982's parade, back at the Padang site, featured more contingents and for the first time the mobile column drove past after the marchpast had concluded, thus making it a predecessor to the parades at the Padang from 1995 onward (every 5 years).
1983 would be the final year that the NDP was held in multiple venues.
The 1984 NDP, now back at the Padang, celebrated Singapore's Silver Jubilee of self-governance and included a bigger Mobile Column, the first appearance of the popular Silent Precision Drill Squad from the Singapore Armed Forces Military Police Command and the first true evening fireworks display (plus the debut of the very first NDP theme song) while NDP 1985 celebrated the nation's 20th year with more participants in the parade segment and in the show proper. The 1986 edition was the first true evening edition of the parade, and the first to use flashlights for audience use. 1987's parade, held at the Padang, was the first ever evening event held there and featured the first appearance of the massed military bands of the SAF. 1988 saw the card stunt feature being used for the first time during the National Stadium event and the 1989 edition, the first National Stadium daytime event, saw the debut of the nationally famous Red Lions parachute team and the daylight fireworks after 1966. The parade returned to the Padang in 1990 to honor the nation's silver jubilee year, which would turn out to be the last afternoon event ever to be held.
In 1997, for the first time, there was a National Education Show, where Primary 5 students watch NDP rehearsals.
The government set up the electronic voting ticketing system in 2003 in order to tackle the problem of overcrowding. Such ticketing system enables citizens to stand a chance at winning the tickets by registering their e-mail addresses or mobile numbers at the NDP website or phonelines.
Starting 2008, the NDP is also aired all over the Asia-Pacific region through Channel NewsAsia.
2009's NDP was the first ever edition to have an integrated show including the parade segment.
In 2014 Third Warrant Officer Shirley Ng became the first female Red Lion parachutist to jump at the NDP.[1][2]
2015's parade, even as all was planned for the parade to be at the Padang, will be the first ever parade to be held both there and at the Float at Marina Bay, breaking a parade tradition in the process. NDP 2015 is the first National Day Parade without the founding leader Lee Kuan Yew, who never missed a single National Day Parade since 1966, for whom he had died on 23 March 2015, within 8 months after attending the 2014 edition.
NDP editions
The venue of the parade is usually at the historical grounds of the Padang, where the declaration of Singapore's independence was held. Since the first parade in 1966, all the way to 1975, the venue was located in this central area to bring the parade closer to the people. In 1976, the parade was held for the first time at the newly completed National Stadium, where the much larger capacity allowed for more to view the parade live.
Although offering about 60,000 seats in the National Stadium, the demand for tickets remained high. Hence there were several attempts to decentralise the venue to bring the celebration closer to more Singaporeans. From 1975 to 1983, celebrations were alternated between a decentralised event and one centered at the Padang or stadium. From 1984, the parade was held twice at the stadium before being brought back to the Padang. This three-year cycle was repeated up to 1994.
From 1995, it was decided that the Padang would be used as the venue every five years. The Padang, although historically important, posed a greater logistical challenge and also offered fewer seats for spectators. The event and rehearsals also required the closing of surrounding roads. There was a need to construct temporary spectator stands around the field. The site remained, however, the only feasible venue for the mobile column, as the heavy vehicles could not be driven onto the stadium track. The Padang was used as the main performance venue for the 2005 parade, with fringe activities decentralised to Marina South, Jurong East, Yishun and Tampines.
Several alternate locations were mooted, including the utilisation of the Padang, which is physically bigger and less likely to disrupt daily functions in the city.
Parade being held at the Marina Bay Floating Stadium in 2007
On 16 October 2005, it was announced that that 2006 NDP would be held at the old stadium for the last time before moving to The Float at Marina Bay [1]. The 130 metre by 100 metre platform would be used for the next five years until the new stadium is completed. Although offering a seating capacity of only 27,000, which is less than National Stadium, there is a vast area for 150,000 extra spectators along the Marina Bay waterfront.
Since the 2000s (decade), every year's parade would revolve around a theme which would guide the planning of the parade and show.
After ten-year hiatus, the 2016 edition of NDP will return back to the new National Stadium

A Southeastern Network train from Bexleyheath to London Bridge Station at 06:01am this morning, and despite the BBC weather centre assuring me of heavy cloud and light rain, Londoners were treated to a rather spectacular and beautiful sunrise this morning.
Photograph taken at an altitude of Nine metres at 07:34am on Thursday 22nd October 2015, off Bankside on London's South Bank, looking towards The Millennium Bridge, officially known as the London Millennium Footbridge, which was designed by Norman Foster, and was constructed between 1996 and 2000.
It is a steel suspension bridge for pedestrians crossing the River Thames in London, linking Bankside with the City of London. I affectionately call the Bridge, 'The wibbly-wobbly bridge', after somewhat embarassing teething problems which had the old girl flexing in her moorings when first opened. This view looks towards Monument, Tower Bridge and HMS Belfast moored on the River Thames. The mighty Shard is on the right of the frame.
Here, we look further onwards towards St Paul's Cathedral. The Cathedral was designed by architect Sir Christopher Wren, with construction commencing in 1675 and the official opening in 1708. It stands One hundred and eleven metres tall and is a Church of England cathedral, the seat of the Bishop of London and Mother Church of the Diocese of London, It sits at the top of Ludgate Hill, the highest point in the City of London.

New for 2017, Octan unveils its long-awaited nostalgia racing team featuring its all-new modular gasser chassis. While the cars carry no "offical" Octan logos or other branding, the paint scheme leaves no doubt who is unofficially sponsoring this team of young engineers and builders who concidentally all work together at said company. The fleet consists of the original pilot car, a 1955 Chevy; a mid-sixties compact Station Wagon of undetermined make, and a late-forties Ford coupe. The 55 and wagon feature flip-up front ends while the Ford simply needs nothing more than the hood removed. While these cars are not street legal in their race trim, there have been unconfirmed sightings of them at the late-night street races that absolutely never take place on Bricksburg's industrial West Side neighborhood on the first and third tuesdays of every month.
------------------------------------
I'd like to introduce the new modular gasser chassis that is the second in line with the modular hot rod chassis I debuted this time last year. The new gasser chassis features great flexibility to accomodate many different body styles as seen here. Wheelbase and ride height are adjustable in several ways yet they all share common mounting points. As with the hot rod chassis, wheels and engines are easily changed. The front frame clip can easily accomodate either fixed or flip-up front ends.The chassis is low enough that bodies can easily be configured to fit minifigs as these models all do. As a final note, the 55 Chevy is an update of a former build. Can you spot all the changes?
Thanks for looking, I hope you enjoy these as much as I did building them.
A striking architectural shot of a grand interior staircase, likely located within a luxurious hotel or historic building in Portugal. The stairs feature a plush, vivid red carpet runner, leading the eye up toward a large, multi-paned window that bathes the landing in soft, natural light. The rich, dark wooden handrails are supported by intricate black wrought iron balusters and decorative accents, lending an air of classic elegance and fine craftsmanship. The walls are painted in a warm, neutral tone, emphasizing the textures of the wood and the vibrant color of the carpet. This staircase evokes a sense of timeless luxury and is a beautiful example of preserved European interior design and historic architecture.
