I've had this lens that I cannot stand to use and it's been buried in my camera bag for over two years now. I have been making myself use it because I can use a lower ISO when I use it and I like that. However it's a prime lens and I can't zoom like I'm used to and I hate that part. I took this one tonight and I'm ok with it.
When I found my first green tiger beetles (Cicindela campestris) I was astonished to see how fast they were running , but pretty soon I managed to at least get some decent photos of them even though I was nowhere near 1:1 magnification.
Practice makes perfect though so eventually I figured out how to get close so this is a shot taken using the Canon MP-E65mm lens set to 2.2:1 magnification which I would have considered ridiculously close at the beginning.
UK designer Thomas Heatherwick masterpiece at Nanyang Technology University in Singapore.
Resembling a cluster of elongated bee hives, the Learning Hub at Nanyang Technology University explores new ways of teaching at a time when computers and the internet are challenging the rationale of learning institutions.
The hub’s form is dictated by its function, and brings together 55 tutorial rooms into a structure without conventional corridors, which have traditionally created social separation and isolation. The learning hub has no one door, it is porous. Students can enter from 360 degrees around into a large central space which links all the separate towers together. Each tower is made up of a stack of classrooms which build up gradually, with gardens on selected floors.*

Taken with a tilt shift camera to control the vertical distortion, 3 images were stitched together. The 2 students at the bottom of the image forms a focal point in an otherwise empty space.
Come ariete immaginario
apro un varco nelle mura.
Abbandono la città;
me ne vado alla ventura.
Cerco isole deserte
dove covano i gabbiani,
là per ore starò inerte
senza l'ansia del domani......

Both my parents work with education, my mother is a teacher and my father is a professor at the university, so even though I didn't choose their profession, I've inherited their curiosity about new things.
Didn't know how to make an image about learning, so this pen (and the decoration, which is on the other end of the pen) gets to represent learning. I think making notes or writing essays is part of studying.
Happy MM!

Our Mother of Sorrows Catholic Church and School: 1967-2009
September 15th is the memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows. Simeon predicted that a sword would pierce Mary’s heart (Luke 2:35) and the Church honors her seven sorrows. There have been two churches with this title in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, one in Monroe and the other in Roselawn, pictured above, which closed in 2009. Take from The Catholic Telegraph issue dated 28 September 1967, the caption reads,
“Archbishop Karl J. Alter addresses parishioners at the newly renovated Our Mother of Sorrows Church, Cincinnati [Roselawn]. The school cafeteria was converted into a church to accommodate a larger number of persons. Parishioners performed most of the work, according to Father Andrew J. Hoying, pastor. The dedication ceremony was held on the feast of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Sept. 15.”

A third entry for the ABS Builder Challenge finale, hosted by InnovaLUG. #azureblueftw
The crafty seed part was used 5 times, and it's pretty obvious how. This build was definitely not paintstaking. . .
In honor of my father, who taught me how to paint, and had to deal with my crazy painting skills / mistakes. A big shout out to all you fathers out there who help teach young men these skills!

Through the creations that I build, I hope to inspire other young (or perhaps older) LEGO builders to unleash their inner creativity. We all need a positive way to express ourselves, so let's let LEGO be an extension of us. Your creativity belongs to you, and nobody can take that away. Build what you want to build, and how you want to build it.

The Rolex Learning Centre ("EPFL Learning Centre") is the campus hub and library for the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL), in Lausanne, Switzerland. Designed by the winners of 2010 Pritzker Prize, Japanese-duo SANAA, it opened on 22 February 2010.
Kazuyo Sejima and Ryue Nishizawa, partners of the Tokyo-based design firm SANAA, were selected as the lead architects in EPFL's international competition of December 2004. The team was selected among famous architects and even some Pritzker Prize Laureates such as Zaha Hadid, Rem Koolhaas, Diller Scofidio + Renfro, Jean Nouvel, Herzog & de Meuron, Ábalos & Herreros and Xaveer De Geyter.
The construction took place between 2007 and 2009. It cost 110 million Swiss francs and was funded by the Swiss government as well as by private sponsors (Rolex, Logitech, Bouygues Construction, Crédit Suisse, Nestlé, Novartis and SICPA).
The building opened on 22 February 2010 and was inaugurated on 27 May 2010. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolex_Learning_Center

A great moment of life is seeing wild animals in their own natural habitat. Cannot beat it, and very addictive.
Just back from 'Tour de Bear' in the Canadian Rockies, Western Canada. Very tired, but some absolutely beautiful wildlife moments and worth every minute we put in. And there were a lot of minutes too, with us spending hour after hour, and day after day looking for wildlife.
Also, met a number of great photographers around our trip. All out in the golden hours searching for these charismatic animals.
Two siblings black bears, one black and one brown in colour. We named these bears Lilly and Marshall
