One of the features of the Sk8 Park in Grimsby, Ontario is a group of small billboard-style panels specifically intended to host the artistic expressions of those visiting the site. As a result, graffiti is encouraged in places that are acceptable. Furthermore, periodic cleanup of the panels by town staff ensures regular refreshment of the subject matter. This image was taken in mid-February, the dead of Winter, so the snow-covered park was not in regular use and had not been for several months. The last round of painting had been ignored, likely waiting for Spring to get a refresh, with the consequence being the multiple layers of paint had weathered and flaked off leaving colourful abstracts when viewed up close. This section features and area with yellow and green patches. - JW

You all will never hear me saying anything but good things about the detail found at Disney's Animal Kingdom. Most of you already know that I'm sure. This is something that I had always just walked by on all of our past trips. Since it was just Jenea and I on this trip, I seemed to see a little more detail rather than running by it because we are with a big group of family members. :) Please let me know what you all think as any suggestions are welcomed and appreciated. Enjoy!

This shot is number 4/52 from my album 52 regards from the archive - the bit other project.
Many people on Flickr have these 365 days projects but I wanted to do another one. I don't want to force myself to take a picture every day. I just want to take pictures if I want and if I feel that it's right. Also I want to show some "respect" to my "old" photographs and cameras.
So every Friday I will post a photo from the archive back from the days when I had no MILC/DSLM.
I hope you will enjoy it :)

This fly bends down on its long legs to sip some water drops and replenish. It's a pretty long leg. HFDF everyone!

Two Bridges in the heart of Dartmoor National Park in Devon, England.
Located around 2.5 km (1.6 mi) north east of Princetown on the old turnpike road which was built across Dartmoor in the late 18th century (now the B3212). A map dated 1765 suggests the origin of the name, for in those days the road crossed both the West Dart and the River Cowsic, just upstream from the point where they meet, and required two separate bridges. By 1891, these had disappeared and there was just a single bridge, further downstream, over the West Dart.
Today, however, there are again two bridges on the site, because a more modern structure was added in the 1930s alongside its earlier predecessor. Visitors often mistakenly assume that these are the same two bridges that gave the name to the site.
In the 18th century, Two Bridges was best known for its potato market. The site was no doubt chosen because it is in a central location, and easily accessible on what was then, and still is now, the only usable road across Dartmoor.
Some small quarries in the vicinity show that there was also light industry in the area. Those who met and worked in this remote spot were able to gain refreshment and lodging at the Saracen's Head Inn. It was built in 1794 as a coaching inn, and much extended, still stands there today as the Two Bridges Hotel. It continues to be a popular meeting point for tourists and walkers.
The area is also surrounded by prehistoric antiquities, including Bronze age settlements, stone rows and an impressive standing stone, the Beardown Man, situated to the north west. The ancient Wistman’s Wood is a short walk away.
Many famous guests have stayed at Two Bridges Hotel over the years including actress Vivian (Gone With the Wind) Leigh who met her husband at the hotel, HRHs Edward Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII), HRH Prince Charles Prince of Wales, and many others.
A small book "Air Like Champagne" which covers the history of the hotel is available to customers at reception.
