Nature Bridges is a leading bridge company that specializes in top down construction of timber bridges and pedestrian boardwalks through environmentally sensitive areas. Through the use of lightweight hydraulic impact and material handling equipment in combination with hand driven auger machines, our top down construction method means the only things that touch the ground are workmen. The only things left behind are footprints and your new bridge.
As one of the nation's leading bridge builders, we also construct a wide variety of other development amenities, such as golf cart bridges, free span bridges, architecturally designed trellises, fencing, pavilions, decks and docks. Other amenities you may consider are our timber curbing and guardrails for vehicular bridges, roadside walkways, and timber retaining walls for those projects that require the warmth of wood in lieu of concrete and steel.
Nature Bridges is a bridge contractor that prides itself on a solid reputation of superior craftsmanship and meeting our customers' schedules. We require continuing education for our project foremen, bringing the knowledge of the testing laboratory and the field together to continually improve our building techniques.
When planning your next project, plan on Nature Bridges!

The Office of Cultural Affairs, in partnership with the Virginia Beach Parks & Recreation and the Chesapeake Bay Foundation's Brock Environmental Center, commissioned artist, Benjamin Heller for a residency to create Terrapin Basin, this environmentally responsive installation at Pleasure House Point. As a resident artist, Heller will is creating his work on site and be available to the public to demonstrate his process. The City's goal is to use this opportunity to spotlight our natural spaces while creating a deeper knowledge and appreciation for the Chesapeake Bay.
Diamondback terrapins are the only turtle species in North America adapted to survive in brackish water – a mixture of salt and fresh water – like the Lynnhaven River and Chesapeake Bay. Terrapins require sandy beaches which make Pleasure House Point Natural Area's sandy surroundings ideal for nesting.
Terrapin Basin will measure 5' x 7' and be set into the ground creating a basin that invites visitors to explore. The sculpture is constructed from locally sourced sandstone, native to the area, which will be cut, assembled and polished on site. Heller's carving process is similar to the forming of rivers and coastlines – an active process and one that he will share onsite with visitors as the project unfolds. Heller connects the stone form of his piece with the types of nests that Diamondback terrapins dig to lay their eggs, while bringing attention to how human presence that can threaten their habitat. This piece will serve as an educational experience creating conversation about how all of these elements can co-exist and be preserved.

This photograph was published in the Illustrated Chronicle on the 21st of July 1916.
During the Great War the Illustrated Chronicle published photographs of soldiers and sailors from Newcastle and the North East of England, which had been in the news. The photographs were sent in by relatives and give us a glimpse into the past.
The physical collection held by Newcastle Libraries comprises bound volumes of the newspaper from 1910 to 1925. We are keen to find out more about the people in the photographs. If you recognise anyone in the images and have any stories and information to add please comment below.

What kinds of new knowledge can be invoked from the recontextualization of the most frequently used words within the text? I have begun to work on Banned Written works as a source- the three pieces here are just a starting point.
I just joined the library today, after ten years in Korea it is good to have access to English books again. Perks of being home I guess. Borrowed some Photoshop technique books and this photo is the result. A composite of three images, the main photo...a statue (which I shot in Busan a while back), plus some texture and Bokeah that I got from: www.flickr.com/photos/lesbrumes/ Thanks to Lesbrumes for sharing your textures.
Just realized my pro account has expired and my last upload to Flickr was late in 09. Gosh, have I been away from Flickr for that long?.

Yoko Ono with "PROMISE" (7" tall and 5" wide)
for the second Annual World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD), April 2nd, 2009 at the United Nations, New York City, New York
When I was first approached to create an artwork for Autism awareness, I was shocked by the worldwide prevalence of this serious situation especially amongst our children.
We are now standing in the new age together, armed with so much incredible knowledge on how to heal the world. So there is no reason we can’t find a cure for Autism as well. Let’s shed light to this serious problem, work together, and make it well.
My work “Promise Piece” symbolizes that we all hold a piece of this puzzle, and we must work to raise awareness, funds for research, and advocates for families who experience autism.
The promise piece consists of sixty seven sky of promise pieces in total, and 67 million people have autism around the world. Each Promise Piece will be auctioned online and donated to Autism Speaks in order to raise awareness for autism.
There are still holes in the sky, expressing the mysteries of autism. And the holes are needed to be filled. With our belief and trust in working together, I know that it will be filled in no time.
Purchase the pieces of this MURAL OF DETERMINATION. And ask your friends to spread the word and work together with us on this very rewarding event. Once the solution for Autism is discovered, we will see the sky shimmering in it’s original beauty with no holes!
As I have often said:
A dream you dream alone is only a dream
A dream you dream together is reality.
I am honoured to be a partner in this good work.
Thank you, and I love you!
