Yesterday I queued for my COVID travel test. I haven't sketched in the city or been around people for a while.
One of the initial effects of Storm Desmond on Saturday, December 5th was the closure of the A683 Caton Road due to flooding brought on by constant heavy rain thoughout the day. With this being the main route to junction 34 of the M6 motorway it brought a build up of traffic with jams stretching across Skerton Bridge which was threatened with a temporary closure due to the combination of high tide on the already swollen River Lune. Here traffic is seen queueing to cross Skerton Bridge, which was closed shortly afterwards prior to the high tide. As things worked out the bridge remained closed after the high tide due to being stuck by a shipping container which had been washed down the river, such was the force of the water on that night. The bridge finally re-opened on Monday, December 7th.
To enter Livraria Lello e Irmão one has to buy a ticket for €3. It might be the only bookshop in the world where it's necessary to pay to enter. When buying (a) book(s), the entrance fee is returned. The fee is to limit a bit the thousands of visitors every day. This queue is the evidence that in spite of the fee still many people want to get a look inside. The red cabin is the ticket office, the bookshop itself is at the left just outside the photo at the other side of the street.
Taj Mahal, Agra, Uttar Pradesh, India
As we were standing in the line to enter the Taj Mahal and I took several of this type of shot. If anyone left the smallest gap in the line 15 people would cut. This is the reason these women (and one lucky guy) are standing so close to each other.
I like the color of course as well as the detail of each woman's attire. I especially like the woman with the orange scarf over her head.
There was a mad rush for soya bean fresh curd or Soft Tofu. More commonly known as Douhua or Tauhua. It is a vegetarian dish TauFuFa. The guy had many big steel cylinders filled with fresh gelatinous white tofu and he was serving them with multiple options of syrups and toppings. Chinatown KL Malaysia kualalumpur

The Mary Rose was a carrack-type warship of the English Tudor navy of King Henry VIII.
After serving for 33 years in several wars against France, Scotland, and Brittany and after being substantially rebuilt in 1536, she saw her last action on 19 July 1545. While leading the attack on the galleys of a French invasion fleet, she sank in the Solent, the straits north of the Isle of Wight.
The wreck of the Mary Rose was rediscovered in 1971 and salvaged in 1982 by the Mary Rose Trust in one of the most complex and expensive projects in the history of maritime archaeology.
The surviving section of the ship and thousands of recovered artefacts are of immeasurable value as a Tudor-era time capsule

A view of the traffic queues on Kingsway as traffic faces being diverted away from the flooded A683 Caton Road in Lancaster.
An assortment of people waiting in a queue, and what an assortment it is. From the strandy at the front to the protective granny at the end of the queue they are figures with whom we regularly come into contact.
