Replicated in the 1990s after the original was demolished in 1931 to remove religious relics from Moscow and improve accessibility to Red Square for tanks and soldiers.
This image meets the project goals since it is a photo in which the lighting and composition of another photo was replicated to create this photo.
The process I used to get this photo was I first got out my camera and put it on my tri-pod. Then I took my camera and tri-pod, set them up next to my work bench, grabbed 2 lights, and set them up around my work bench in order to get the correct lighting. Then I took my tree trimmer, put it in my vise, got out my Dremel and its accessories, put the right bit in the Dremel, and placed the bits container behind the vise at an angle. Then I took my Dremel, turned it on, got the right hand position and angle, began sharpening the blade, and started taking pictures until I got this one. In the editing of this photo I added a gradient layer over the background layer, duplicated the background layer, changed that layer to soft light, and erased parts of the duplicated layer and gradient layer and used the paint brush tool to paint certain areas in the photo for a layer mask. In the editing of this photo I also bumped up the whites, temperature, tint, exposure, clarity, and vibrancy and turned down the brightness.
The strengths of this photo are in the composition, since the way things are arranged in the photo are almost exactly the way they are arranged in the original photo, and lighting, since the objects in this photo are all well light and the lighting in the photo matches the original photo’s lighting almost exactly. The weaknesses of this photo are in the cropping of this photo, since the edges around the things I cropped did not turn out that great, and the sharpening of this photo, since the Dremel itself seems kind of blurry and out of focus.
These shots were taken during the evening at Madurodam, The Hague. Madurodam is a miniature city where you will see the well-known buildings and scenes in The Netherlands replicated on a scale of 1:25. Most of them were shot with my Nikkor 50mm f/1.8.

Shamima Akter Jahan works as an assistant Camp in Charge. She grew up in Rajshahi with two sisters and studied physics in Dhaka. In the camp, she says, the Rohingya accepted her well but “it was a big change and shock for them.” In the 27 year history for the RRRC she is the first female CIC. "I don't know why, maybe no one thought a lady could do this job." She considered doing the job as soon as she saw it advertised. Her boss at the time told her "You should go, you'll be a pioneer. Maybe you can be an example for other women." Her role is to support the CIC in areas of law and order and mediating disputes. Also coordinating between the police, local government, community leader and Mahji, as well between all the NGOs and beneficiaries. Everyday she is deal with issues of gender based violence, 6-7 cases daily. About dealing with GBV she says "This is the toughest job I do here. Psychologically it was difficult." She recalls a particularly difficult incident, where a woman's husband was beating her every day and divorced her because she gave birth to a girl instead of a boy. "I couldn't believe it. You see this baby girls face and you're shattered. The baby was only 2 months old. I couldn't resolve it. Every time I see the babies fave it tortures me. I this this personally. As men, the other CICs can understand the same way. The women in the camp are very open with me. This is a privilege. Everyone thinks this job is very male dominated, but it's just the opposite. The camp is 60% women. We need more female CICs." Regarding the issues, specifically gender issues facing the Rohingya population she says "We can work easily here as Bangladeshis because we passed this patriarchal phase in our country too. We are replicating and using the same techniques as what we did here 30 years ago in Bangladesh." "In the office, when we are having CIC meetings, among 50-55 people I am the only woman, and it's not a good thing.

This photo album features inspiring women who serve in the security and defence institutions and networks in their respective countries. Their work helps to prevent conflict and build sustainable peace by delivering effective and responsive security services to their communities.
When women’s needs and experiences are at the centre of security sector reform, security institutions become more inclusive, diverse, and representative of the population they serve. This means they can more effectively respond to the specific needs of different groups.
The United Nations supports national efforts to increase the participation of women at all levels of security and defence sectors in post-conflict contexts. The promotion of gender equality in the security sector is a core element of global efforts to build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels.

“Models are not replications of reality. They are simplifications, and thus, are imperfect,” said Hansen during one of four lectures during his visit to France. His argument for confronting that reality was to accept that there is little we can know with certainty, but much we can understand about uncertainty itself. "Let's push uncertainty to the forefront of economic analysis."
The 2013 Nobel laureate—famed for teaching economists that they could "learn something without knowing everything" via his General Method of Moments—traveled to Paris in May 2015 to speak to alumni at the University Chicago Paris Center.
Capturing a similar photo to number 4. It was interesting with two subjects as they kept jumping at different times or one person would move more than the other. Eventually we got the timing right of both the camera and couple with the shutter at 1/400. I love the texture of the girls curly curly hair, its her trademark, and is wild as she is.

Launching a marketplace always seems like a brilliant idea when no one else has done it before, but there can often be several reasons why that’s the case. Let’s suppose for a moment that your core idea is as superior as you think it is, what do you do next?
It’s a constantly varying field with companies going to the wall, rising from the ashes, and making the news with pioneering IPOs every particular day. The secret is to break it down by making things simple. So, Matthew Ledvina wants every startup must know the answer to these simple questions if they want to move in the right direction.
From where does the Marketplace Growth begin?
The marketplace comes with new listings or services that have the potential to benefit a global audience. This is one of the best examples considered for the global network that affects the travel marketplaces such as Airbnb or Expedia.
Creating networks helps to spring up multiple parallel systems in the same larger marketplace with the local approach. Deliveroo and UberEats are some of the best examples. If you are living in NYC and accessing the services that the person living in Paris can’t get. Consider that your local network is still delivering the services that you need the most. Apart from it, it lets you figure out the category to which the marketplace falls into. However, this can be the most crucial step in establishing meaningful growth projections.
Do you truly understand the Supply Chain?
You could have a supply chain in which each supplier is presenting the same type of products largely dependent on the same, or you have a chain supply that has everything unique. The first thing to be understood is that it is easy to replicate but easier to scale, and the second thing to be considered is that it is hard to replicate but harder to scale. So, a financial marketplace would need to create a match with the clients to be reputable lenders and in doing so there is a need to understand that it doesn’t price the client out of the market. This would require flexibility and adaptability on the part of the marketplace to deal with clients that have a specific set of individual needs.
How you can change the sellers vs. buyer’s mindset?
As you know that continuing with the financial marketplace sellers are the lenders and buyers are the clients looking to borrow. There can be no marketplace without lenders and buyers. So, there is a need to create balance for both. Understanding where does the balance lie is the core concern?
To generate really a disruptive event in the world of lending, a new class of lenders will also be required to provide trouble-free access to credit to a wide range of people who may not have had access to it through conventional way.
Typically lenders will cover themselves against risk with exorbitant interest rates, and that’s precisely the term in the equation that needs to change to establish a kind of trust among the consumer. It is the need to understand the question of whether to focus on the dollar amount or the frequency of transactions.
Whether Airbnb or Uber?
Many would opt for high-dollar, high-frequency but unfortunately, that’s not on the table and is not considerable. Airbnb mainly focuses on the dollar amounts, whilst Uber’s core perspective is to prioritize the frequency of the lower-value transactions. So, it is advisable to push the frequency side of things as hard as possible whilst you get things up and running. It’s what gives the brand exposure to the largest audience, and it’s what creates the liquidity to expand and be competitive in the competitive world.
Final Thoughts
Tech ventures are alive and well, and the recent Uber IPO shows the world that it has still enthralled the online marketplaces. On the Final Note, it can be said that can be as complicated with the tech side of things as you like, but if you don’t have some core grounding regarding how the function of a marketplace, the uprising in the lending world will have to wait for someone else to come along. It is what Matthew Ledvina demonstrates the new startups.
