Additionally, as of March 9, 2024, it has returned to Ludwigsburg.

Near to Hartshead Pike, Oldham, Lancashire, UK... The building on the far left of this picture used to be a pub - The Collier's Arms!
I have a lot of respect for those
who make it
to show a picture every day.
Sometime and somewhere
I have on my forays into the villages
shot this picture
how come? I don't know.
One colour
Well I was looking forward to this but was playing by ear after a 12 hour shift. I went upstairs to my prop chest and picked out various things and then proceeded to the wife's craft room and her scrapbooking sheets. Radomnly tried various things and then saw what looked good after downloading.(one can never really tell)
Happy Macro Mondays
House number 9 seems to have gone missing.

China is still developing. 2025 will see the country starting its second phase of industrialisation, in its vast and resource rich western provinces, with Chongqing as the administrative hub and international port 1500 miles inland from the sea. Phase 1 industrialisation started from a low base in the 1970s and has made China the world's biggest economy and a manufacturer double in output of its only global competitor the United States. Phase 2 is beginning at an infinitely higher technological and infrastructural base, and is already mind-boggling.
The house on the right recently sold for $1.7 million. Crazy property values
I really love this little house. Been meaning to photography it for a while but never managed the shot. Glad i got this because i fear this one will bite the dust in the next couple of years.

Elizabeth Quay is a mixed-use development project in the Perth central business district. Encompassing an area located on the north shore of Perth Water near the landmark Swan Bells, the precinct was named in honour of Queen Elizabeth II during her Diamond Jubilee.
The project includes construction of an artificial inlet on what was previously the Esplanade Reserve, and modifications to the surrounding environs including Barrack Square, with the project opening nine sites for potential development. Completed facilities were initially projected to include 1,700 residential apartments, 150,000 square metres (1.6 million square feet) of office space and 39,000 square metres (0.42 million square feet) of retail space.
Planning Minister John Day and Premier Colin Barnett turned the first ground at the Esplanade Reserve on 26 April 2012, and Barnett announced the name "Elizabeth Quay" on 28 May 2012. Construction of the inlet and associated infrastructure were completed in January 2016, ahead of the Perth International Arts Festival and Fringe World. The quay was officially opened on 29 January 2016. Construction of the associated buildings will be completed at varying times thereafter, with the first – The Ritz Carlton Hotel and an adjacent residential tower – opened on 15 November 2019.
Description
The Elizabeth Quay precinct is centred around an artificial inlet that opens to the Swan River at its south. At the eastern side of the mouth of the inlet is an islet, which contains the Florence Hummerston Kiosk (which hosts a hospitality complex), the Bessie Rischbieth statue and a playground, and is connected to the eastern shore by a short bridge and to the western shore by the longer Elizabeth Quay Bridge, a pedestrian and cycling bridge which spans the mouth of the inlet.
On the eastern shore are 24 public short stay moorings for recreational boats, as well as the Meet Our Australian Sailor sculpture on the south-eastern shore near the islet. The eastern side contains a 28-storey Ritz Carlton hotel and an adjacent residential tower, as well as two smaller buildings containing food and beverage outlets. The north shore, designated "The Landing", features the sculpture Spanda at its centre, with a carousel immediately west of the public artwork. Directly north of The Landing, across Geoffrey Bolton Avenue which bisects the area from west to east, is the 19-storey Nine The Esplanade office tower development (scheduled for completion in 2025), with the 29-storey Australian headquarters of Chevron Corporation located in the north-east of the precinct. To the north-west, adjacent to the Nine The Esplanade development, is an empty lot yet to be developed as of February 2025; this lot has been slated for the future 56-storey Fifteen The Esplanade mixed-use development.
The western shore features the Elizabeth Quay Jetty for Transperth ferry services to South Perth as well as commercial moorings. To the north-west is a shaded water park and play area and a building containing public toilets and a food and beverage outlet, with the mixed-use EQ West development consisting of two towers (52-storeys and 25-storeys, under construction as of February 2025) taking up the rest of the precinct to its west and south-west. The art piece First Contact stands on the south-west shore, near the western entry to the Elizabeth Quay Bridge.
