NO TRIPOD USED, HANDHELD ONLY AND THEY CAME OUT PERFECTLY ALIGNED. I TOOK ONLY THREE PICTURES TO MAKE THIS PANORAMIC.
Liu Fang Yuan, the Garden of Flowing Fragrance, is one of the largest Chinese gardens
outside China. Designed to create, preserve, and promote the rich and complex traditions of Chinese
culture, this authentic garden is a special place for visitors to feel inspired by the elegant harmony
of nature and poetry. Thanks to visionary landscape architects and artisans from China and the
United States, inspired historians, expert gardeners, and generous benefactors, Liu Fang Yuan
reflects today an exceptional combination of learning and beauty.
A Chinese garden is often compared to a work of art: It is like a scroll painting composed of carefully arranged scenes. As you stroll through the pathways and pavilions of Liu Fang Yuan, new vistas are revealed as if a scroll were being slowly unrolled. In the garden, as in a painting, several key elements play an important part in creating balance, meaning, and beauty in the composition.

Coronavirus hero Captain Tom Moore has been promoted to Colonel on his 100th birthday. The veteran has raised over 30 million pounds for the NHS. His big day will also be marked with a flypast by a Spitfire and a Hurricane over his Bedfordshire home.
Happy 100th birthday Colonel Tom. You are an inspiration and epitomise everything that is, a British soldier 🇬🇧
Classical Khmer kings of medieval Cambodia promoted the notion of Devarāja, a cult of the "god-king” that provided the religious rationale for royal authority. They were depicted as divine universal rulers or deified monarchs with transcendental qualities.
The gigantic smiling faces at Bayon Temple portray the great Mahayana Buddhist king, Jayavarman VII, as a living god on earth - a Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara or enlightened Buddhist saint overseeing a vast and disparate empire with an enigmatic blend of benevolence and absolute authority.
Bayon Temple served as the primary locus of the royal cult and was Jayavarman's personal mausoleum at the height of his rein over the Khmer Empire in the late 12th Century. The temple is positioned at the centre of the ancient Angkor Thom city complex and rural metropolis in northwestern Cambodia. Over 200 serenely smiling visages carved on more than 50 sandstone face-towers remain throughout the temple.

The Kapellbrücke is a covered wooden footbridge spanning the river Reuss diagonally in the city of Lucerne in central Switzerland. Named after the nearby St. Peter's Chapel,[1] the bridge is unique in containing a number of interior paintings dating back to the 17th century, although many of them were destroyed along with a larger part of the centuries-old bridge in a 1993 fire. Subsequently restored, the Kapellbrücke is the oldest wooden covered bridge in Europe, as well as the world's oldest surviving truss bridge. It serves as the city's symbol and as one of Switzerland's main tourist attractions.
Lucerne is unique in that its three wooden pedestrian bridges, the 14th-century Hofbrücke (now destroyed) and Kapellbrücke and the 16th-century Spreuerbrücke, all featured painted interior triangular frames. None of Europe's other wooden footbridges have this feature. The paintings, dating back to the 17th century and executed by local Catholic painter Hans Heinrich Wägmann, depict events from Lucerne's history. Of the original 158 paintings, 147 existed before the 1993 fire. After the fire, the remains of 47 paintings were collected, but ultimately only 30 were fully restored.
The wooden boards that held the paintings varied from 150 centimetres (59 in) to 181 centimetres (71 in) wide and 85 centimetres (33 in) to 95 centimetres (37 in) wide. Most of the panels were made from spruce wood boards, and only a few were made from linden wood and maple. The paintings were created during the Counter-Reformation, featuring scenes promoting the Catholic Church. The paintings were sponsored by the city's council members, who, upon sponsoring a panel, were allowed to attribute their personal coat of arms on it. An explanation of each painting was printed below each scene. The paintings ran all along the bridge, dating from the life and death of Lucerne's patron saint St. Leger to the legends of the city's other patron saint St. Maurice.

China, Harbin, Song Hua Jiang Gonglu Bridge, or Songhua River Highway Bridge & National Street crossing the Songhua River from Harbin to the Sun Island & ahead. The tower is one of the three identical towers on both sides & centre with spiral staircases for pedestrians connected to the top of the slight over 2 km long bridge.
This bridge is leading directly to the "Ice & Snow Festival" & further to the Siberian Tiger research. centre
Not only for its special position, but also as the centre of Heilongjiang's political, economic, educational & cultural life, Harbin is described as the pearl beneath the swan's neck. Lying on the east of the Songnen Plain, what is more, Harbin plays a vital role in communications between South & North Asia as well the regions of Europe & the Pacific Ocean.
Harbin was the birthplace of Jin, 1115-1234 & Qing, 1644-1911, Dynasties, the latter of which had a very considerable influence on modern Chinese history.
At the end of the 19th century, Russia built the terminus of the Middle East Railway here. Later, more than 160,000 foreigners from 33 countries migrated to Harbin, promoting the development of a capitalist economy in the city. The economy & culture of Harbin achieved unprecedented prosperity at that time & the city gradually grew into a famous international commercial port. Assimilating external culture, Harbin created its unique & exotic cityscape. The majestic St. Sofia Orthodox Church & Zhongyang Dajie each built in a European style have the effect of bringing you into an 'eastern Moscow'. Even though you are sure to be attracted by various exotic buildings, the Dragon Tower which embodies the wisdom of the Chinese people is a must on your journey.
Besides these rich cultural heritages, Harbin is favoured with beautiful natural scenery. Based on meandering Song Hua River & subject to severe low temperatures in winter, down to -30°C, when I took this Pictures the Temperature varied between -20°C & -26°C but dry air, Harbin boasts a unique ice & snow culture. So, Harbin is also called the "Ice City".
The impressive "Ice & Snow Festival" is the greatest & unusual one in the world, therefor Harbin is also called the "Ice City".
As well the large Siberian Tiger & white tigers research centre, with about 500 tigers & a few other species, does an important work to prevent this species from extinction. The Research centre can be visited, tours in small a bus are available, passing through wide natural, separated, sections, however the focus point is to save the tigers.

Les Suds in Arles
Drawing from world music all that is unique, and in the end, shared in common, this évent at once festive and pedagocic, boasts a globalization independent of any dominant culture.
Here, the programming openly crosses aesthetics, musical traditions and the most recent movements, space and time, to promote cultural diversity and distinction. Firmly rooted in a region naturally turned toward the Mediterranean and opened to the world, Les SUDS,à ARLES offers a platform of departure from contemporary creation. Fully assuming its southern roots, the compelling programme of this exceptional festival weaves a refined musical identity, within a setting that is no less amazing! Enlivening a unique architectural heritage, the most beautiful voices and sounds in the world- from the most famous to recent discoveries – are invited into the heart of this beautiful Provençale town that becomes, for seven days and six nights, a global city.
Seen here promoting a local garage (who specialise in Audis, BMWs, Mercs and Porsches, AKA, the complete opposite of a Fiat Punto!).
It's gained another owner since. Also note the 4D plate, which may just be my least favourite current car modification fad.

The idea to promote the Nine Little Streets as a shopping area came from Djoeke Wessing. Still a local shop keeper, she wanted a common name for the area to give the same allure as the Jordan. This, she felt, would promote cooperation and business growth, but also attract more tourists to the hitherto relatively unknown area. The Association of The 9 Streets was founded on November 12, 1996. Nobody thought it was a good name at the time, but the name has stuck, and the area retains de 9 Straatjes' name.
The Nine Streets: Reestraat, Hartenstraat, Gasthuismolensteeg, Oudespiegelstraat, Wolvenstraat, Berenstraat, Huidenstraat, Runstraat y Weide Heisteeg.

About a year ago I posted a slide scan of a blue 1954 Chevrolet delivery truck, here is a link to that photo - flic.kr/p/2orwX6Y - I had purchased that slide, and the one posted here, from the same seller, and both photos look like they were taken at the same facility (whose location is unknown), just a few months apart, the mount for this one only shows “May 1953”.
This spotless, smart-looking, brand new yellow step-van has hub caps and an emblem just below the windshield that show it to be a Chevrolet. – What I thought to be most interesting was the center of the grille which had a circular chrome or stainless design as well as the name “CAR O VAN” in red letters.
I could not find any evidence that Chevrolet had ever mass-produced a step van model with this name, but I did however find a photo of a GMC truck brochure from about this same era promoting “Three New Wide Universal CAROVANS” - “Bodies mounted on GMC package delivery chassis” offered in three different wheelbases, but the photo on the brochure shows just a standard step-van grille with “GMC” lettering.
So perhaps the truck in this photo was a one-of-a kind prototype for Chevrolet with the CAROVAN model name and trim, whose exact details and ultimate fate have since been lost to the passing of time……….But I sure would love to know where that very cool grille ended up ! - May 1953.

i thought i'd get some signs and stuff ready to promote the 'It's yours, take it!' street exhibition for which i'm one of the 'nailers'.
as always i got sidetracked and did some free art too
Born from the bowels of the Free Art Friday Flickr Group, "It's yours, take it!" is a global free art project taking place in 5 cities. Stateside we have Chicago,Illinois, Honolulu,Hawaii and Phoenix, Arizona. Outside the land of consumption is Tel Aviv, Isreal and Portsmouth Hampshire, UK.
38 artists are contributing one piece each to these five locations. In place of curators we have "Nailers"... those that will be putting these pieces up at an impromptu outdoor location. The installations will be put up around the last weekend of March, 2008. Stay tuned for previews of finished pieces and complete photographic coverage!

Statuette of Tauret dedicated by the designer Parahotep (1292-1190 BC - New Kingdom - 19th dynasty) - painted wood 41 x 17 x 21.5 cm. -
Provenance Deir el-Medina - Egyptian Museum, Turin, Italy
La dea Tauret – il cui nome significa letteralmente “la grande” – ha corpo e testa da ippopotamo, coda e dorso di coccodrillo e zampe leonine, tutti animali noti per la loro aggressività nella protezione della prole. In quanto divinità venerata soprattutto in ambiente domestico, non ha templi e statue colossali a lei dedicate: piccole statuette in terracotta e legno venivano solitamente poste nelle case per proteggere i nuovi nati o per favorire la fertilità.
The goddess Tauret-whose name literally means "the great one"-has the body and head of a hippopotamus, tail and back of a crocodile, and lion paws, all animals known for their aggressiveness in protecting their offspring. As a deity worshipped mainly in domestic settings, she has no temples or colossal statues dedicated to her: small terracotta and wooden statuettes were usually placed in homes to protect newborns or to promote fertility.
"Thrawn is promoted to the rank of Admiral and is tasked with ending a hostage situation on "Scrim Island", on the planet Batonn. His request for studying the situation further is turned down by fleet Admiral Donassius. Finding it hard to follow the order he has been given, he and Vanto embark on an undercover mission on Batonn to learn more about their opponents and their intentions."
This was the 12th Episode for RebelLUG's Thrawn collab, you can find a YouTube video of it here:

Overall I'm pretty pleased with the outcome, and I really do love the rocks and the whole terrain. Checkout the video for a more detailed look of it. I'm hoping to get two projects done over my two-week break (A tank and a small diorama) so look out for those.
I have always dreamed out of doing a flour shoot and for whatever wild reason- I had yet to do it until PPC. We gathered for our photo walk with Brooke on day 2 and two different shoots happening with flour and it was wonderful. I was so mesmerized watching them dance around with the flour.

Special logojet promoting 'Star Wars - Galaxy's Edge', the latest movie in the Star Wars franchise, featuring the 'Millennium Falcon'.
Named: "Hot Lips", later "The Falcon" (Sep-19).
Originally ordered by GECAS for lease to Alitalia as EI-CVI, the lease was cancelled and the aircraft was leased to Virgin Atlantic Airways as G-VLIP in May-01.
In May-10 it carried large 'Harry Potter' graphics until Jan-11. In Sep-19 the aircraft was renamed 'The Falcon' and repainted in a Star Wars 'Millennium Falcon' special livery promoting the 'Star Ward - Galaxy's Edge' movie.
Virgin Atlantic were due to start retiring their seven remaining B747-400's from the end of 2000, however the COVID-19 Pandemic in 2020 caused them to retire the aircraft early. All seven aircraft were initially stored at Manchester, UK in Mar/Apr-20.
They are gradually being moved to Ciudad Real in central Spain for long term storage and lease return. This aircraft ferried Manchester / Ciudad Real on 15-Jun-20.
It was ferried to London-Heathrow and onwards to Marana, AZ, USA in Dec-20 where it was permanently retired.
