Tasting Britain got an invite down to the (recently permanent) Beers & Buns Residency above the K10 in Appold Street, Bishopsgate. A strong time was had by all. What's it all about then? In a nutshell, it's their take on an Izakaya (wikipedia: "a type of informal Japanese drinking establishment that serves food to accompany the drinks"), and has done rather well since it opened in February 2012. Think Asian street food and a massive selection of rare/unusual Japanese craft beers. It's the only place in the UK where you get Hitachino Nest (owl beer!) on draught. And one of the only places you can get the Asahi Super Dry, âsuper coldâ draught (properly served at -2 degrees celsius which supposedly maintains carbonation for longer).
Asides from this, there's a small wine selection (one of every colour, no fortifieds), plus 2 selections of sake (one served hot, one served cold). There were a few milestones here. For example, this is the first time I ever saw a soju bomb or a sake bomb, which are consumed by knocking a 25ml shot of sake into a glass of Asahi by slamming down on a metal drum/barrel (yes, there are lots of barrels around here). I like the idea of this because it involves sake/soju and doesnât involve energy drinks or Jagermeister (which, let's be blunt, are disgusting and do bad things for your body). We got to chat with a chill guy called Jon, who gave us their backstory. Jonâs an ex professional rugby player who kinda fell into a career in hospitality after an injury.
Second milestone? This is the first time I have ever consumed a beer made of sweet potato, which was better than I expected but not as good as I hoped. How about food? Korean style jumbo chicken wings in an array of fkn EXTREME sauces, steamed 'hirata' buns full of a selection of highly delicious and unhealthful fillings (the Aunbergine Katsu turned out to be the best). Also a classic/grunge rock soundtrack, retro pinball and fusball tables and black walls that everybody is encouraged to draw all over with conveniently located pieces of chalk. It's a relaxed, fun atmosphere and is entirely unpretentious (I won't be the first to have said thisâ¦). Would return oh yes.

________________________________
The National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC is a world-class art museum that displays one of the largest collections of masterpieces in the world including paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, and decorative arts from the 13th century to the present. The National Gallery of Art collection includes an extensive survey of works of American, British, Italian, Flemish, Spanish, Dutch, French and German art. With its prime location on the National Mall, surrounded by the Smithsonian Institution, visitors often think that the museum is a part of the Smithsonian. It is a separate entity and is supported by a combination of private and public funds. Admission is free. The museum offers a wide range of educational programs, lectures, guided tours, films, and concerts.
The original neoclassical building, the West Building includes European (13th-early 20th century) and American (18th-early 20th century) paintings, sculptures, decorative arts, and temporary exhibitions. The National Gallery of Art was opened to the public in 1941 with funds provided by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The original collection of masterpieces was provided by Mellon, who was the U. S. Secretary of the Treasury and ambassador to Britain in the 1930s. Mellon collected European masterpieces and many of the Gallery’s original works were once owned by Catherine II of Russia and purchased in the early 1930s by Mellon from the Hermitage Museum in Leningrad.
The core collection includes major works of art donated by Paul Mellon, Ailsa Mellon Bruce, Lessing J. Rosenwald, Samuel Henry Kress, Rush Harrison Kress, Peter Arrell Browne Widener, Joseph E. Widener, and Chester Dale. The Gallery's collection of paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, medals, and decorative arts traces the development of Western art from the Middle Ages to the present, including the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas and the largest mobile created by Alexander Calder.
The NGA's collection galleries and Sculpture Garden display European and American paintings, sculpture, works on paper, photographs, and decorative arts. Paintings in the permanent collection date from the Middle Ages to the present. The Italian Renaissance collection includes two panels from Duccio's Maesta, the tondo of the Adoration of the Magi by Fra Angelico and Filippo Lippi, a Botticelli work on the same subject, Giorgione's Allendale Nativity, Giovanni Bellini's The Feast of the Gods, Ginevra de' Benci (the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas) and groups of works by Titian and Raphael.
The collections include paintings by many European masters, including a version of Saint Martin and the Beggar, by El Greco, and works by Matthias Grünewald, Cranach the Elder, Rogier van der Weyden, Albrecht Dürer, Frans Hals, Rembrandt, Johannes Vermeer, Francisco Goya, Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, and Eugène Delacroix, among others. The collection of sculpture and decorative arts includes such works as the Chalice of Abbot Suger of St-Denis and a collection of work by Auguste Rodin and Edgar Degas. Other highlights of the permanent collection include the second of the two original sets of Thomas Cole's series of paintings titled The Voyage of Life, (the first set is at the Munson-Williams-Proctor Arts Institute in Utica, New York) and the original version of Watson and the Shark by John Singleton Copley (two other versions are in the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Detroit Institute of Arts).

Andrew W. Mellon, who pledged both the resources to construct the National Gallery of Art as well as his high-quality art collection, is rightly known as the founder of the gallery. But his bequest numbered less than two hundred paintings and sculptures—not nearly enough to fill the gallery’s massive rooms. This, however, was a feature, not a failure of Mellon’s vision; he anticipated that the gallery eventually would be filled not only by his own collection, but also by additional donations from other private collectors. By design, then, it was both Andrew Mellon and those who followed his lead—among them, eight men and women known as the Founding Benefactors—to whom the gallery owes its premier reputation as a national art museum. At the gallery’s opening in 1941, President Roosevelt stated, “the dedication of this Gallery to a living past, and to a greater and more richly living future, is the measure of the earnestness of our intention that the freedom of the human spirit shall go on.”

Permanent Residents
19 November 2014 -- 323/365
East Providence, Rhode Island
I stopped at Bold Point on my way home from work today. This flock of Canada Geese were hanging out off-shore, just floating in place. They provided an interesting foreground for a late afternoon photo of the river and bridge. What struck me, though, was the fact that they were still here despite temperatures that dropped into the 20s today. You see, Canada Geese are allegedly migratory. At least, they were migratory when I was a kid. We'd see huge flocks of them flying south throughout September and October, and those flocks would return north in April. Not so much anymore, though. As people started feeding the geese in the ponds and rivers around the state, and as their numbers grew dramatically, their migratory behavior changed. Now, large flocks of the geese are permanent residents and they've turned into a major nuisance, polluting ponds and lakes, and turning most open fields (like golf courses) into fertilizer mine fields.
Post processing started with a classic filter in Topaz B&W FX. I adjusted color sensitivity sliders, adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, boost black, and boost white. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
