A giant whale made from 5 tonnes of plastic waste jumps up from the water of a canal in Utrecht. The artwork is in Utrecht during a period in 2019 and Utrecht University and its partners are organising activities for the theme of sustainability around the presence of the enormous art installation.
The whale, or, as the artwork is officially called, The Skyscraper, is an art project created by architecture firm Studio KCA from New York, for the BrugesTriennial. More than five tonnes of plastic waste collected from the beaches of Hawaii was used to create the artwork. It breaches out of the water, eleven metres tall.

"Plastic Soup" is the theme for a contemporary Street Art Museum in Kijkduin's old shopping centre which will be torn down in October to make room for "Nieuw Kijkduin".
Walls, floors, ceilings, windows, even roofs of the shops that were already empty were free for the street artists (one of them Ringo Mollinger from The Hague) to contribute to the works against plastic pollution in order to make people aware that we are close to "5 to 12" and should change our consumer habits.

Sinds 21 juni drijft er een 250 kilo grote wereldbol gemaakt van zwerfafval en met een doorsnede van vijf meter in het Amsterdamse IJ.
De Amsterdamse fotograaf en kunstenaar Peter Smith (stichting Klean) maakte de globe met de naam 'De Wereld van Zwerfvuil'. De globe drijft tussen Amsterdam Centraal en het filmmuseum EYE.
De wereldbol blijft tot 21 september liggen, dan is het de landelijke Keep It Clean Day.

A visit to Lacock Abbey, Fox Talbot Museum and Village in Wiltshire.
Lacock Abbey in the village of Lacock, Wiltshire, England, was founded in the early 13th century by Ela, Countess of Salisbury, as a nunnery of the Augustinian order. The abbey remained a nunnery until the suppression of Roman Catholic institutions in England in the 16th century; it was then sold to Sir William Sharington who converted the convent into a residence where he and his family lived. It was fortified and remained loyal to the crown during the English Civil War, but surrendered to the Parliamentary forces once Devizes had fallen in 1645.
The house was built over the old cloisters and its main rooms are on the first floor. It is a stone house with stone slated roofs, twisted chimney stacks and mullioned windows. Throughout the life of the building, many architectural alterations, additions, and renovations have occurred so that the house is a mish-mash of different periods and styles. The Tudor stable courtyard to the north of the house has retained many of its original features including the brewhouse and bakehouse.
The house later passed into the hands of the Talbot family, and during the 19th century was the residence of William Henry Fox Talbot. In 1835 he made what may be the earliest surviving photographic camera negative, an image of one of the windows.
In 1944 artist Matilda Theresa Talbot gave the house and the surrounding village of Lacock to the National Trust. The abbey houses the Fox Talbot Museum, devoted to the pioneering work of William Talbot in the field of photography. The Trust markets the abbey and village together as "Lacock Abbey, Fox Talbot Museum & Village". The abbey is a Grade I listed building, having been so designated on 20 December 1960.

Zinkendschip in Plasticsoep. Martijn van Daalen vertaalde de essentie van het werk van Jheronimous Bosch (de strijd tussen goed en kwaad), naar het heden. Hij vervijg het geloof van de middeleeuwen voor de klimaatverandering van vandaag en laat de dagelijkse strijd van modern mensen zien. Dit is de strijd van een commerciële wereld, waarin wij elke dag weer plastic varpakkingsmateriaal kopen, terwijl wij weten wat de gevolgen zijn: "Plastcisoep"
In de tijd van Jeroen Bosch speelde de strijd tussen goed en kwaad zich vaak af in het geloof, de kerk en het bijgeloof. Jheronimous Bosch moet dit ook hebben gevoeld.
Sinking ship in plastic soup. martijn van Dalen translated the essence of Bosches work (which is the battle between gooed and evil), to our present days. He sustituted the religious believe in the middle ages for the nowadays climatechange., thus showing the dayly battle of modern men: which is one of a commercial world in which we dayly are buying plastics in the supermarket. , while we know the consequenses; "Sinking ship in Plastic Soup"
In Bosches time the battle between good and evil often took place in religion, the church and superstition. Jheronimous should have feld this too.

Tits breed mostly in lowland areas, but can reach altitudes of up to 1,300 m. They prefer large areas of moist, broadleaved woodland, often oak or beech, though they can occupy wet alder woodland, riverside trees, parks and gardens or orchards.
OK .. wait a second ... this is not a pair of birds or "Tits" as certain species of birds are called ... actually this image represents what a warped mind I have as I came across a very strange scene in a local forest, a ripped up inflatable boat ... WTF?
So what do i do, I take a few pieces and arrange them into this wonderful scene .... I think I have a serious problem ??? What do you think?

I thought I would give D-76 another try as I haven't had great luck with it in the past. This time, I heated the solution well when mixing and I filtered the mixed solution. Seems to have worked, no particles on the negatives. Glad I gave it a second chance as it seems to like HP5+.
I have also been shooting lots of HP5+, starting to appreciate the nice range of grays it can produce.
