Wind tunnels are large tubes with air blowing through them. The tunnels are used to replicate the actions of an object flying through the air or moving along the ground. Researchers use wind tunnels to learn more about how an aircraft will fly. NASA uses wind tunnels to test scale models of aircraft and spacecraft. Some wind tunnels are large enough to contain full-size versions of vehicles. The wind tunnel moves air around an object, making it seem as if the object is really flying.

Rustic cabins built on stilts on North Vancouver's Maplewood mudflats were paradise to squatters until 1971, when they were burned to the ground in an effort by the district council of the time to prepare the way to build a shopping mall on the site. But a growing awareness of environmental issues prevented that plan from coming to pass, and today the Maplewood Conservation Area is a protected bird sanctuary.
Malcolm Lowry, the author of the novel Under the Volcano, lived on the mudflats during the 1940s and '50s and wrote about the experience in novels and short stories.
Then world-renowned artist Ken Lum was commissioned to replicate the shacks in miniature, and his work was originally displayed outside the Shangri-La Hotel in downtown Vancouver during the 2010 Olympics.
After the Olympics, Lum readily agreed to gift the artwork to the District of North Vancouver and they were put back in the same spot as the original shacks.

The Titanic Museum in Belfast opened in 2012 on the site of the former Harland and Wolff shipyard in Belfast's Titanic Quarter where the RMS Titanic was built.
The museum tells the stories of the Titanic (which hit an iceberg and sank during its maiden voyage in 1912) and her sister ships RMS Olympic and HMHS Brittanic.
Titanic Museum's design replicates 4 high pointed hulls mimicking the ocean liner, covered by 3,000 individual aluminium shimmering shards.
It is 126 feet tall (38 m) which is the same height as the Titanic's hull.
Over 1500 passengers and crew lost their lives when Titanic sank on 14th April 1912.
I couldn't resist to take a selfie at (or rather under) the Cloud Gate, a sculpture by Anish Kapoor installed in the Millennium park in Chicago, IL, U.S.A. It is definitely one of the most intriguing modern sculptures I've seen installed in public spaces.

Halcyon has been donated to The Center for Wooden Boats and is being placed in their permanent collection of historically significant boats. Built in 1948, she is a 40 ft salmon trawler designed by Bill Gardin and later refit by master shipwright Sam Fry as a comfortable cruising trawler. The design goal was to replicate the original Bill Garden's lines to look like a working troller until you step aboard and realize that she is a new built on the original hull. She will be hosting day charters and serving as a teaching platform for maritime skills.
The 131 ft Schooner Adventuress was launched in East Boothbay, Maine, in 1913. She did arctic exploration, served as a bar pilot vessel in San Francisco and is now offering hands-on environmental education and leadership development to thousands of young people annually and partnering with youth-serving organizations to reach at-risk kids. Adventuress is a National Historic Landmark officially recognized as “Puget Sound’s Environmental Tall Ship.” She was less tall this day as she was sailing without her topmasts.

14th June 2015 - Hawker Hurricane IIC PZ865 at the RAF Cosford airshow.
Named The Last of the Many serial number PZ865 first flew at Langley, Buckinghamshire on 22 July 1944. Instead of being allocated to the RAF, it was retained by its manufacturer, Hawker Aircraft for trials work.
It moved in 1950 to the Hawker factory at Dunsfold Aerodrome and it was given the civil registration G-AMAU on 1 May 1950. It was flown into second place at the 1950 King's Cup Air Race by Group Captain Peter Townsend. At this time it was painted in Hawker Aircraft's dark blue colour scheme with gold lettering and lining. The aircraft also appeared in the Battle of Britain film in 1968.
In 1972 the aircraft was refurbished and presented by Hawker's successor company, Hawker Siddeley, to the Royal Air Force's Battle of Britain Memorial Flight then based at RAF Coltishall, reverting to its RAF serial as identity.
Formerly painted as code JX-E to represent "Night Reaper" flown by 1 Squadron fighter ace Flt Lt Karel Kuttelwascher DFC during night intruder operations from RAF Tangmere, In 2010 the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight began a rebuild of Hawker Hurricane PZ865 which will now wear a new colour scheme, faithfully replicating Hurricane Mk IIC HW840, coded ‘EG-S’, of 34 Squadron, South East Asia Command during 1944, the personal aircraft of Canadian pilot, Flight Lieutenant Jimmy Whalen DFC.
there they are, all my braincells replicated in a silo. happy new year everyone!! i love how time rolls like a wave around this big ball we all live on, striking the midnight hour according to pleats folded on the planet. ok, so i love this!....went out to dinner tonight and discovered a 13 yr old had accidentally walked off with my coat. got it when they drove back but i had done the same thing at the exact hour on christmas eve last week. so coat theft is the new must-have biorythm. love you all, thanks for a year of gobsmack amazing images. you make me happy.
A snippet of landscape taken at the end of the day while driving. It is the quintessential micro-scene replicated ad infinitum across the hill country where I live and travel.
On our only full day in Singapore we visited Gardens By The Bay for the second time. It really is a remarkable place and perhaps this dome is the piece de resistance; an artificial mountain created inside a glass dome that resembles the conditions you would find in a cloud forest.
The Cloud Forest is higher but slightly smaller of the two domes at 0.8 hectares (2.0 acres). It replicates the cool moist conditions found in tropical mountain regions between 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) and 3,000 metres (9,800 ft) above sea level, found in South-East Asia, Central- and South America. It features a 42-metre (138 ft) "Cloud Mountain", accessible by an elevator, and visitors are able to descend the mountain via a circular path where a 35-metre (115 ft) waterfall provides visitors with refreshing cool air.
The "Cloud Mountain" itself is an intricate structure completely clad in epiphytes such as orchids, ferns, peacock ferns, spike- and clubmosses, bromeliads and anthuriums. The design by Grant Associates was inspired by the Maiden Hair Fungus and consists of a number of levels, each with a different theme, including The Lost World, The Cavern, The Waterfall View, The Crystal Mountain, The Cloud Forest Gallery, The Cloud Forest Theatre and The Secret Garden.

NOVA ZELANDA, Aotearoa B/N 2023
First Church is a prominent church in the New Zealand city of Dunedin. It is located in the heart of the city on Moray Place, 100 metres to the south of the city centre. The church is the city's primary Presbyterian church. The building is regarded as the most impressive of New Zealand's nineteenth-century churches, and is listed by Heritage New Zealand as a Category I structure.
Earlier structures:
Prior to the construction of the church, smaller earlier buildings had been used by the congregation, but the rapid rise in the city's population meant that a larger, more permanent structure was necessary.
The original First Church stood close to the former beach in the city's lower High Street. This was a rough, weatherboard building, erected very quickly, and capable of holding some 200 people. It was opened in September 1848, within six months of the arrival of the city's first permanent European settlers from Scotland. So hasty was the construction of the building that early congregations had to remain standing, as seating was not installed until three months later.
A stone church was built in 1850 which expanded and extended the original structure, doubling its capacity. This building not only served as a church, but, in the city's early days, was also a school, public lecture hall, and served as the Otago Provincial Council chambers. The building was utilitarian, and may have only ever been intended as a temporary solution, as plans for a more stately building were being mooted as early as 1856. After construction of the permanent church, the 1848 and 1850 buildings were used as a wool store, but were destroyed by fire in 1865.
From 1864 a third structure ("The Interim Church") was used, on a site above the previous buildings on Dowling Street. A sturdy wooden structure on a stone base, it had seating for 600, and was used until the present building was ready for use in 1873. The wooden building was dismantled and moved to Fryatt Street, where is served as a tram workshop; part of the original stone foundations on Dowling Street are still visible adjoining a city council car park.
Construction:
The current church stands on the stump of Bell Hill, a major promontory which initially divided the heart of Dunedin in two. In the city's early years, gold was discovered inland, resulting in rapid growth in the city. The hill became a massive obstacle to the development of Dunedin, and a decision was made by the Otago Provincial Council to make a substantial excavation into the hill. This resulted in a cutting through which one of the city's main streets, Princes Street, now passes, and the reduction of the height of Bell Hill by some 12 metres (40 ft). Much of the excavated soil and stone was used in the reclamation of land which now forms the Southern Endowment of South Dunedin. The church's site, on a promontory of what is left of the hill, commands views to the south across Queen's Gardens towards the Otago Harbour and South Dunedin.
The building, in decorated Gothic style, was designed in 1862 by Robert Lawson, who also designed the city's Knox Church, which has a similar tower. Lawson had won a competition for the design of the church from among six entrants.[7] Construction was delayed after the decision to reduce Bell Hill, with the foundation stone being laid in May 1868 by Dr. Thomas Burns, and was officially opened on 23 November 1873, by which time Burns, its champion, had already died.[3] The church is dominated by its multi-pinnacled tower crowned by a spire rising to 56.4 metres (185 ft). The spire is unusual as it is pierced by two-storeyed gabled windows on all sides, which give an illusion of even greater height. Such was Lawson's perfectionism that the top of the spire had to be dismantled and rebuilt when it failed to measure up to his standards. It can be seen from much of central Dunedin, and dominates the skyline of lower Moray Place, and has a capacity of over 1000.
The expense of the building was not without criticism. Some members of the Presbyterian synod felt the metropolitan church should not have been so privileged over the country districts where congregants had no purpose designed places of worship or only modest ones. The Reverend Dr Burns's championship of the project ensured it was carried through against such objections.
The building:
The rear of the building, as seen from Queens Gardens, shows the true architecture and extravagant European basilica-like quality of the church, which shocked its early congregation.
The mausoleum of William Larnach and family, in Dunedin Northern Cemetery, New Zealand, is a miniature replica of First Church.
Externally, First Church successfully replicates the effect, if on a smaller scale, of the late Norman cathedrals of England. The cathedral-like design and size can best be appreciated from the rear. There is an apse flanked by turrets, which are dwarfed by the massive gable containing the great rose window. It is this large circular window which after the spire becomes the focal point of the rear elevations. The whole architectural essay appears here almost European. Inside, instead of the stone vaulted ceiling of a Norman cathedral, there are hammer beams supporting a ceiling of pitched wood and a stone pointed arch acts as a simple proscenium to the central pulpit. Above this diffused light enters through a rose window of stained glass. This is flanked by further lights on the lower level, while twin organ pipes emphasise the symmetry of the pulpit.
At 56.4 metres (185 ft), the spire makes the building one of the tallest in the South Island, and it was the island's tallest building until the construction of ChristChurch Cathedral, Christchurch was completed in 1881. It again held that rank briefly from 1888, after the latter building was damaged by an earthquake. The church is currently the city's tallest building, and the fourth tallest building in the South Island (after Pacific Tower, the Forsyth Barr Building, and Rydge's Hotel, all in Christchurch).
The building is constructed of Oamaru stone, set on foundations of basalt breccia from Port Chalmers, with details carved by Louis Godfrey, who also did much of the woodcarving in the interior. The use of "cathedral glass", coloured but unfigured glass pending the donation of a pictorial window for the rose window is characteristic of Otago's 19th-century churches, where donors were relatively few reflecting the generally "low church" sentiments of the place. Similar examples can be found in several of Lawson's other churches throughout Otago.
Other notable features of the building include stained glass windows dedicated to those fallen in war and to the Otago Mounted Rifles. For many years, the church housed a 1908 Norman & Baird organ, though this was replaced in 1983 by a digital organ by Allen. A full set of eight change-ringing bells, cast by the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, was installed in 1975 and are rung by members of the Australian and New Zealand Association of Bellringers. At that time the only such set in a Presbyterian church outside the United Kingdom and claimed to be the southernmost ring of bells in the world.[9][10] A large bell on a pedestal stands outside the church, sent from Scotland in 1851. Also located in the grounds in front of the church is a memorial plaque to Dr. Burns. The entrance gates to the church feature two lamps which started life as Edinburgh street lamps, another connection to the homeland of many of the city's first settlers.
A miniature of the church was created by Lawson in the city's Northern Cemetery as a family tomb for noted early Dunedinite William Larnach.
Regular Sunday services are held in the church in English (10.00am), Cook Island Maori (12.00 Noon), and Samoan (2.00pm). The church is also used for a variety of both religious and secular civic and cultural events within the city.

This fountain is a replication of the wine fountain that was at Hampton Court during Henry VIII's reign.
Originally built by Cardinal Wolsey in the early 16th century, Hampton Court was eventually taken over by Henry VII and turned into his residence. The palace is a blend of Tudor and Baroque architecture and was a home to the royal family until 1737 under George II. In 1838, Queen Victoria opened its doors to visitors.
A yellow-crowned night heron (Nyctanassa violacea) coming in for a landing. I was following it from a distance but just before it arrived some reeds came between us. Nevertheless, firing off shots left one in which there was a clean line of sight to the head, while the rest of the bird was left partially obstructed. I suspect this is the reason behind the low contrast. I very much like the overall look. Unfortunately, it isn't a look that I could easily replicate.
All favs and comments are very much appreciated!
Happy Holidays to all!

Marius Els did an example of using under the brush tool :symmetry and making Mandalas. Since I never used this variant of the brush tool here is my piece called Dream Replication. Enjoy!

Three times now I've come across Weird Ian in the foliage at Biddulph Grange. But not so weird this time: only one hat on. But he was clearly enjoying himself. He told me he had started this painting the day before. The dribbly paint might have been down to difficulties seeing during the nighttime dark.....no, he had gone home overnight and started again early in the morning adding several zeros to the value of the painting by using water from the stream and clay ocre and paste made from ground up moss collected off the rocks. No, he hadn't done that either, perhaps he should have in the name of art. But he had gone for a dynamic palette once more of vivid mauve and purple, replicating the bluebells that were nowhere to be seen, although the triangular moss covered rock is still recognisable. Joyous isn't it? He proudly told me he had sold one..............a picture of some sunflowers called Covid Blues.
