Lily got displaced from her perch by Coriander, who was being a little pushy! Coriander has since passed from this world, and we still miss her.

I've long admired this new window in the St Martin-in-the-Fields Church, thought it was about time I found out more about it......
"A new East Window designed by Shirazeh Houshiary, in collaboration with architect Pip Horne, was installed above the altar of St Martin-in-the-Fields in 2008. The commission marked the final stage of the church’s Renewal Project led by Eric Parry Architects. The strong design by Houshiary and Horne adds light to the Grade I listed church, and is one of the most significant pieces of religious art commissioned in modern times.
The glass, held within a stainless steel framework, is made of mouth-blown clear glass panels etched on both sides with a subtle, feathery pattern, a recognisable hallmark of Houshiary’s paintings. The glass panels graduate from a periphery of more transparent glass to a denser, whiter centre. The central ellipse itself is lightly etched, and lit in such a way as to form a focal point of light visible internally and externally."

Luke 21:28 “Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”
Life was filled with guns and war,
and everyone got trampled on the floor.
I wish we'd all been ready.
Children died the days grew cold,
a piece of bread could buy a bag of gold.
I wish we'd all been ready.
There's no time to change your mind,
the Son has come and you've been left behind.
A man and wife asleep in bed,
she hears a noise and turns her head, he's gone.
I wish we'd all been ready.
Two men walking up a hill,
one disappears and one's left standing still.
I wish we'd all been ready.
There's no time to change your mind,
the Son has come and you've been left behind.
The Father spoke, the demons dined,
how could you have been so blind?
There's no time to change your mind,
the Son has come and you've been left behind.
You've been left behind.
You've been left behind.
(Larry Norman)
Where would we be without them?

I love the wooden hand above. I bought it for my son when he was studying art. One of his friends broke the thumb off at some stage and I had to super glue it back on. The result is that it isn't as dexterous as it used to be. Poor Thing. It still manages quite well though.

I learned something new...
So, you have thousands of negatives going back some six decades and you know there are some really meaningful frames that you probably would want to scan.
You hold them up to light, you put on your strongest glasses or even a loupe and if you're lucky you might identify a place or a person. But wait, you see a series of portraits and wonder which would be the best.
And hey presto, there is a quick (if dirty) approach as illustrated here, and before you ask, the solution is inverting the colours and now you have positive images.
No more money, no more fancy dress
This other kingdom seems by far the best
Until it's other jaw reveals incest
And loose obedience to a vegetable law.

Westgate Oxford (formerly the Westgate Centre) is a major shopping centre in Oxford city centre, England, that was extensively remodelled and extended between 2016 and 2017.
The Westgate Shopping Centre opened in 1972, and was originally owned by Oxford City Council. The centre included branches of Selfridges, Sainsbury's and C&A. The central library was also moved to the centre from the Town Hall, being opened by Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, on 31 October 1973. Queen Elizabeth II and the Duke of Edinburgh visited in 1976.
The centre was sold in the 1980s to private owners; in 1986, they refurbished it, at a cost of £3 million. Two years later, an early proposal was made to extend the centre by its then owners. Plans for the redevelopment of the Westgate area were originally published in 2004. The new centre has almost 800,000 square feet (74,000 m2) of retail, restaurant and leisure space including a new John Lewis, a rooftop dining terrace with views across Oxford's skyline, and a five screen Curzon Cinema. According to Oxford City Council, "the £500 million redevelopment of the Westgate Centre is a key part of the regeneration of Oxford city centre, creating high quality buildings designed by world-class architects and providing more than 3,400 new full-time equivalent jobs." The new centre reopened on 24 October 2017.
At the heart of Oxford’s new Westgate Shopping Centre is John Lewis & Partners offering three floors of fashion, beauty, home, giftware, technology and electrical items.
With 50 John Lewis shops across the UK, the arrival of John Lewis & Partners and the new Westgate Shopping Centre has given Oxford a significant retail boost for the benefit of both visitors and residents. John Lewis stocks around 350,000 separate lines in its department store and online at johnlewis.com across fashion, home and technology.
John Lewis & Partners (formerly and commonly known as John Lewis) is a brand of high-end department stores operating throughout Great Britain, with concessions also located in the Republic of Ireland and Australia. The brand sells general merchandise as part of the employee-owned mutual organisation known as the John Lewis Partnership, the largest co-operative in the United Kingdom. It was created by Spedan Lewis, son of the founder, John Lewis, in 1929. The chain has promised since 1925 that it is "never knowingly undersold" – it will always at least match a lower price offered by a national high street competitor.
The colouful sculpture is call 'Homage to Doctor Mirabilis' and is a site-specific free-standing sculpture, commissioned for Westgate Oxford’s Leiden Square. Fabricated from stainless steel and neon, the sculpture creates an important focal point and meeting place on the edge of the largest covered square within Westgate.
Doctor Mirabilis was the nickname given to the 13th century philosopher and Franciscan friar Roger Bacon, who lived and studied for some years in the city, and is buried here. The statue of Bacon in Oxford’s Museum of Natural History shows him holding an astrolabe - a device for studying the movement of celestial bodies – and which the artist has re-imagined in this sculpture.

"Designed in collaboration with Whitby Bird and MJP, the bridge was inspired by the idea of the local ribbon industry and lined with over 800 glass fins. ‘Each fin of glass is industrially screen-printed with a gradation, from the faintest mist to a dense solidity of enamel dots. This delicate detail contrasts with the large scale of the bridge. To order the fins with eight different patterns of gradation I used a random method. Blue was chosen as the colour of the glass, most obviously to connect with the sky, but also for its particular visual properties. From a distance things appear more blue: it is the colour of distance and of the spaces beyond us. It was important that the glass would work as effectively with daylight as with the dramatic artificial night-time lighting.’ Alexander Beleschenko"

Interval Timer (1 image per second - 375 total images)
EDIT: The first version has no music... which do you like better? www.flickr.com/photos/pva1964/4501015470/
I was in Manhattan for lunch last week. While waiting for my friend Matt, I pulled out my D300s and played with the Interval Timer.
In the Shooting Menu, I set the D300s to make a picture every second. Then got the camera on a small Manfrotto table-top tripod (709B DGT ALL TABLE TRIPOD BLACK) and aimed it out onto the sidewalk.
I let the camera run while I snacked on chip and salsa (Chevy's TexMex has great chips and salsa!!). This was about a half-basket interval run.
Using iMovie 09, I was able to get all 375 images strung together into a quick 59 second movie.
Fun practice for a future project.

Using hacksaw blades as a measuring tool when slotting for dropouts. Building at full speed and feeling good. I was just talking to Hilary yesterday about how I’m not entirely motivated right now in the shop (end of summer blues?). So I’ve been doing some mindless sort of tasks that are part of the bike building process until the real inspiration strikes which happened just now. I had finished listening to the latest Built to Spill album and I was not entirely impressed because I live in the past when it comes to music. So I put on Keep It Like a Secret which came out in 1999. The song “The Plan” came on and everything changed. I felt a physical charge come over me. I was immediately transported back in time to when Modus Operandi was released (Transworld Skateboarding video that had this song in it). Marc Johnson’s part is incredible and Ty Evans and Jon Holland’s videography is perfectly in sync with the song. It is so inspiring to hear the intro to that video part and then to see how all their hard work came together in the end. If I was a skateboarder, I’d to be so pumped to skate right now but instead, I’m channeling it to making bikes and it’s working! I’m so psyched right now. #builttospill #starrett #forkblades #modusoperandi #marcjohnson

A bottle of Modus Operandi from Wild Beer in Shepton Mallet, England.
Wild Beer Modus Operandi is a 7% old brown ale that was oak aged for 90 days with wild yeasts. It poured a clear golden red color with a tan head and sported a lovely sour aroma with lactic acid, oak notes, sour fruits and balsamic vinegar - just like a flanders red! Mouthfeel was medium heavy with a smooth creamy texture. The taste started out with a mild malt sweetness and a wonderful lactic acidity with hints of brett and oak. Absolutely delicious.

During August 2008, my family and I visited my inlaws and some friends. I made this little journal while on that trip to give me a creative outlet and record our memories.
The original book was handmade by a friend of mine, and I altered it with ephemera from our trip, markers, and stickers. Upon our return, I also added photos from the trip.
