Hello again Flickr :)
Here's a little post van I made in Digital Designer and rendered with Bluerender. I'm not sure why it hovers slightly above the ground, but I can't fix it...
I'm am currently on a four-month work placement at LEGO in Billund, so I'm living the dream right now! :DDD If you want to read a bit more aout it, go to my blog here: hardingco.tumblr.com/post/148805088036/dream-come-true
Anyway, I hope you like my little build and as always, I appreciate any feedback!

GENSI-VIOLA AMERICAN LEGION POST 36
WINDSOR LOCKS, CONNECTICUT
THE AMERICAN LEGION POST WAS FIRST CHARTERED ON SEPTEMBER 23, 1919 IN THE TOWN OF WINDSOR LOCKS, CT AND WAS THE 36th POST IN THE STATE, AND WAS NAMED "MEUSE-ARGONNE POST." THE NAME WAS DERIVED FROM THAT GREAT BATTLE DURING WW1. ON AUGUST 12, 1927, A SECOND CHARTER WAS ISSUED BECAUSE THE NAME WAS CHANGED TO "GENSI-VIOLA" AFTER TWO SOLDIERS, PRIVATE LOUIS GENSI AND PRIVATE FRANK VIOLA FROM WINDSOR LOCKS, WHO LOST THEIR LIVES IN WW1.
PHOTO OF MEMORIAL HALL IN WINDSOR LOCKS, SHOWS BUILDING WHICH WAS DEDICATED IN 1890 TO HONOR THE VETERANS WHO FOUGHT IN THE CIVIL WAR. A PLAQUE IS MOUNTED ON THE WALL INSIDE THE BUILDING LISTING THEIR NAMES. IN 1953, A LARGE MONUMENT LISTING THOSE THAT FOUGHT IN WW1 AND WW2 WAS PLACED ON THE GROUNDS OF MEMORIAL HALL. A SEPARATE LISTING IS ALSO ADDED WITH NAMES OF THOSE THAT PAID THE SUPREME SACRIFICE. TO THE LEFT OF THIS MONUMENT AND AT A SLIGHT ANGLE WAS PLACED A SMALLER MONUMENT HONORING THOSE THAT SERVED IN THE KOREAN WAR. TO THE RIGHT AND EQUALLY SPACED, IS A MONUMENT HONORING THOSE THAT SERVED DURING THE VIETNAM WAR. THOSE THAT SERVED IN OTHER CONFLICTS ARE NOW LISTED INSIDE OF THE BUILDING.
BEAUTIFUL PLANTINGS SURROUND THE MONUMENTS WITH A PATHWAY OF SLATE FROM THE STREET SIDEWALK TO THE FRONT OF THE MONUMENTS. A LARGE FLAG POLE, CENTERED IN THE REAR OF THE MONUMENTS IS WHERE THE UNITED STATES AND MIA FLAGS ARE HOISTED. A LIGHT ILLUMINATES THE FLAGS AT NIGHT. CEMENT STANCHIONS, AT THE PERIMETER OF THE ROADWAY AND EQUALLY SPACED WITH A CHAIN RUNNING PARALLEL TO THE GROUND THROUGH THEM, HELPS ENHANCE AND PROTECT THE MONUMENTS. MEMORIAL DAY AND VETERAN'S DAY CEREMONIES ARE CONDUCTED HERE AND THE AREA IS CONSIDERED HALLOWED GROUND IN HONOR OF ALL VETERANS WHO PAID THE SUPREME SACRIFICE.
INSTALLATION OF THE MONUMENTS ON THE GROUNDS OF MEMORIAL HALL HAD TO BE ONE OF THE PROUD MOMENTS OF THE POST, TOGETHER WITH THE HOME COMING PARADE THAT WAS HELD WHEN THE GULF WAR VETERANS RETURNED HOME. THE DEDICATION OF MEMORIAL HALL IN 1890 HAD TO BE LOOKED ON AS A BEAUTIFUL ADDITION TO THIS SMALL MILL TOWN BY THE PEOPLE OF THAT ERA. AFTER 110 YEARS, THE BUILDING AND GROUNDS ARE BEAUTIFUL TO LOOK AT, AND ARE ADMIRED BY ALL.
POST 36 OCCUPIES MEMORIAL HALL WHICH IS LOCATED AT THE JUNCTION OF RT 159 AND RT 140, ALSO KNOWN AS SOUTH MAIN AND ELM STREETS, IN THE TOWN OF WINDSOR LOCKS, CT.

The Post Office Palace was built (architect H.Schoede) and inaugurated in 1893 on 16 October.
The complex consists of 3 buildings. In the centre there is a two floor post office with attic, on both sides of it, two one-floor buildings: one of them was a warehouse and stables, while the other one is meant for keeping of the carriages.
The interior of the hall survived unchanged until now. In the Post Office tower an ancient carillon was installed (13 November 1987). The instrument, constructed and installed according to Peter Schilling‘s project by masters of Schilling bell foundry in Apolda (Germany).

It's been 3 years us outcasts have had to scavenge for supplies. A few have settled down in communities, and have small groups of soldiers guarding them form bandits. I live in the largest one in Russia...but let me tell you how i ended up here in this living hell.
In 2024, scientists found a way to travel at FTL speed, this was a great accomplishment. The first tests launched nearly a billion people into space, they reached a system, and confirmed it had several earth-like planets. The next group was sent...then the next....but something was wrong....The massive FTL reactors would leak huge amounts of radiation into the area surrounding Earth....And it had adverse affects on the environment. A few of us were left behind when the final ships left Earth. We thought we were humans about to rule the galaxy....instead we inherited Hell. We probably deserved it too. I wandered for five years....starting in my post as a U.S. Marine is Germany...fighting my way form Germany to safe houses...which turned out to be overrun by various mutant creatures or "infected", humans who were suffering from a terrible brain disorder, making them revert to primitive tribal instincts, they were strong, fast and clever. But i was always the better man.
I'll show you the various modifications I've to this AK47 i found.....
I always thought there was a lot of similarity between Aboriginal art and circuit boards, so I tried combining them here (along with some other gimp magic)
on the beach at Herne Bay. The now isolated end of the pier can be seen out at sea (the central part was destroyed by a storm many years ago)
Groynes are wooden structures that reach out into the sea to prevent the beach being washed away by longshore drift. Here the wooden boards are missing, just leaving a line of posts leading into the sea
Secret #15.
For this I used a picture which I took a couple weeks ago. I took it through a window in which was some water..
You may start to wonder on what I shouldn't have given up. If you do start to wonder that I ask you not to try to figure it out. If I want you to know, if you are supposed to know, I think you already know.
Thank you.
Took this one in the alps some days ago. The cows are back in the valley, the wires are removed from the fences. Everything ready for the first snow.
A small draft of an environmental protection poster. Ideally, the finished version will have a small-run sale of 50 giclee prints on Hahnemuhle W. Turner Watercolor paper, with all proceeds above cost and shipping going to the Sierra Club.

A Post Office B size wall letter box on Holyhead Road in Llanfairpwllgwngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch near the junction with Lôn Graig. Monday 10th January 2011
Note, the letter box was manufactured for the Post Office by W.T. Allen & Company

Walking around Hampstead i noticed this old wall post box there are still a few left in London that are still being used in this age of high technology. This one is probably from the Victiorian era so they are still in competition with the internet email I wonder when their day is up I can't see this model on the following link so I only guess it is Victorian. www.norvic-philatelics.co.uk/2009/images/090818_postbox_s...
I have since come back to this description and I have now noticed that at the top of this post box there is a V space R that must stand for victoria regina.
