This is a photograph from the Longford Athletics Club 5KM and 10KM Road Race which was held at The Mall, Templemichael Road (Longford Leisure Center), Longford Town, Ireland on Sunday 16th March 2014 at 11:00. The race was organised in conjunction with Longford Sports Partnership and also featured a special 5KM race for Junior runners and joggers. The race was AAI approved and measured with chip timing provided for all participants. The race has expanded since last year with the addition of a 5KM option for participants.

Route Description: The 5KM race took one loop of the following course description whilst the 10KM simply repeated the loop a second time. The race started about 1/2 KM from the Sports Center on the link road to the N4: start (goo.gl/maps/3xaRb Google Streetview). The race then proceeds in a clock-wise direction onto the N4 Bypass (goo.gl/maps/jVv1e Google Streetview) for about 1KM. Then the race turns at the well known McDonald's Roundabout which will be known to anyone who has ran in the Longford Half or Full Marathon (McDonalds goo.gl/maps/6lFIF Google Streetview) and then follows the R198 towards the town center along Battery Road and Crosskeys, Church Street to Bridge Street crossing the Camlin River and then left onto Great Water Street returning back to Templemicheal and the finish area. The only climb on the course is the rise at the McDonald's Roundabout. On the By-pass participants were marshalled onto the walking path inside the hard shoulder.
The race was organised in conjunction with Longford Sports Partnership which was established in 2008 under the auspices of Longford County Development Board. One of the key mission goals of Longford Sports Partnership is to increase participation in sport and physical recreation and ensure that local resources are used to best effect. The Partnership also help to ensure enhanced planning of sport at local level.
This was a very well organised event and the members of Longford AC and the Sports Partnership deserve great credit for this. The running of the 5KM and 10KM races simultaneously worked very well. There were about 180 participants in both races combined. Refreshments were served in the Scouts Hall beside the Leisure Center after the race.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
Great! Thank you! The best link to spread the word around is probably http://www.flickr.com/peterm7/sets
SHOCK! Sweetington actually takes his camera OUTSIDE!! Some shots from my holiday in the Lake District. It seems that even when faced with grand mountain vistas, I am still drawn to the miniature!
This reminds me of my violin.
Along the River during Qingming Festival (清明上河图 - QÄ«ngmÃng Shà nghé Tú) is the title of a panoramic painting in handscroll format generally attributed to the Song Dynasty artist Zhang Zeduan (1085-1145).
This is a real-size reproduction of the Qingming Scroll that we bought in Shenzhen. The original scroll is a national treasure being kept in the Forbidden City in Beijing.
My test wall scroll for a class project. This is fille with the same thing over and over. it's a haiku by abbott gyoson. Or it WOULD be, if I had a picture of the finished one.

Vernissage der ersten gemeinsamen Ausstellung von Ali Görmez (50 FACES & MORE) und Wolfgang Brückner (STRUKTUR-
FORSCHER) im Waldorf Astoria Berlin (19. Etage) - 27. März 2015
* Ali Görmez *
Ob im Fahrstuhl, auf der Straße, im Büro oder auf Veranstaltungen. Gesichter sind allerorts. Überall treffen wir auf sie und beginnen sie in unterschiedliche Situationen einzuordnen, Mimiken zu deuten und zu verstehen. In Gesichtern finden wir unser Verständnis, unsere Zugehörigkeit, unsere Abneigungen und eigene Tiefen.
Auch Pop Art Künstler Ali Görmez liebt Gesichter. Dabei geht es nicht um das Einschätzen und Zuordnen von Schönheit. Denn der Künstler weiß, dass sich Gesichter schnell verstellen können, um sich unverwundbar, stark oder kompetent zu zeigen. Er weiß auch, dass das, was vielleicht im ersten Moment gelingen mag, auf den zweiten verblasst.
Für Ali Görmez sind Gesichter Geschichten und Emotionen. Emotionen, in die er eintauchen möchte. Dabei sucht der Künstler die Tür, um hinter die Fassade blicken zu können, um die Geschichte und das Erlebte zu lesen und den Umgang mit diesem zu verstehen.
* Wolfgang Brückner *
Ausgangspunkt für das Projekt STRUKTURFORSCHER war u.a. die Beobachtung, dass die Identität und Besonderheiten der Lage von Gebäuden und Wohnanlagen meist in den Innenräumen schlagartig verschwindet. Selbst große prunkvolle Bauwerke verlieren in ihren Innenräumen schnell an Ausstrahlung. Und wenn Kunst Teil der Inneneinrichtung ist, hat sie selten einen logischen Zusammenhang mit den Gebäuden und der Umgebung. Wolfgang Brückners Bilder schaffen einerseits eine Identifikation und „Verbrüderung“ mit dem jeweiligen Gebäude, anderseits auch „Traum-Fenster“ in die nähere Umgebung, die eigentlich das zeigen, was z. B. hinter den Mauern zu sehen wäre, wenn der Architekt ein Fenster in eine erweiterte Wahrnehmung hätte bauen können.

Opening NEUE HORIZONTE I - Waldorf Astoria, Berlin 2015
Opening of the first joint exhibition by Ali Görmez (50 FACES & MORE) and Wolfgang Brückner (STRUKTURFORSCHER) at Waldorf Astoria Berlin (19th floor) - March 27, 2015

Whether in the elevator, on the street, in the office or at events. Faces are everywhere. We encounter them everywhere and begin to categorize them in different situations, to interpret and understand facial expressions. In faces we find our understanding, our affiliation, our dislikes and our own depths.
Pop artist Ali Görmez also loves faces. But it is not about assessing and classifying beauty. The artist knows that faces can quickly disguise themselves in order to appear invulnerable, strong or competent. He also knows that what may be successful at first glance fades the second time around.
For Ali Görmez, faces are stories and emotions. Emotions that he wants to immerse himself in. In doing so, the artist seeks the door to be able to look behind the façade, to read the story and the experience and to understand how to deal with it.
* Wolfgang Brückner *
One of the starting points for the STRUKTURFORSCHER project was the observation that the identity and special features of the location of buildings and residential complexes usually disappear abruptly in the interiors. Even large, magnificent buildings quickly lose their charisma in their interiors.And when art is part of the interior design, it rarely has a logical connection with the buildings and their surroundings.Wolfgang Brückner's pictures create an identification and "fraternization" with the respective building on the one hand, but also "dream windows" into the immediate surroundings on the other, which actually show what could be seen behind the walls, for example, if the architect had been able to build a window into an expanded perception.
What could be.....would be.....used to be.....paper..... ;-))
Yes, it is bark from the White Birch about 1/8" thick. The brown side is the inner side of the bark. The white side shrinks to roll inside the scroll when it is peeled off.
The Scroll of Isildur was a scroll made by Isildur himself during his short time in Minas Tirith after the War of the Last Alliance between T.A. 1 and 2. The scroll held Isildur's account of the gaining of the Ring from Sauron and described the appearance of an inscription around the Ring while it was still hot. The Scroll was stored for millennia in the vaults of that city. Gandalf started to believe that Bilbo Baggins' Magic Ring was the One. In T.A. 3017 he visited Minas Tirith and studied the scroll. Isildur's description was vital in helping Gandalf identify the Ring. He visited Frodo Baggins in Bag End and testing his ring in the fireplace, confirmed it as the One Ring of Sauron.

This one I added the "D" for Detroit Tigers and the clock. The original pattern had a baseball in place of the clock.

The Torah ark, where the synagogue's Torah scrolls are stored.
The Foundation Stone of the New West End Synagogue was laid on June 7th. 1877 by Mr. Leopold de Rothschild in the presence of the Chief Rabbi, Dr. Nathan Marcus Adler, and the building was formally opened on March 30th. 1879. The total cost of construction, including the site, amounted to £24,980 which was raised by private contributions and with the help of the United Synagogue, of which the New West End is a constituent Synagogue...As time went on, various alterations and improvements were introduced. During the 1890s the walls were faced with alabaster slabs relieved by the finest Cipallino marble from Saillin in the Rhone Valley. The marble and alabaster pulpit and the marble railing in front of the Ark were also installed, while the octagonal iron columns were covered in marble so skilfully that it is virtually impossible to distinguish them from solid marble. About the same time electric lighting was installed, replacing the original gas lamps, examples of which can still be seen inside the Synagogue above each of the doors.
A notable feature of the internal decoration is to be found in the texts that adorn the walls. This idea was not new, being found in mediaeval Synagogues. There were originally nineteen texts; at a later date those on the side walls of the Gallery were added. The texts concentrate on the ideas of Divine knowledge and worship, as well as practice, duty and love. Most of the quotations are from the Psalms, and were selected by the late Rev. Simeon Singer, Minister of the Synagogue from its consecration until his death in 1906.
The beauty of the Synagogue is enhanced by the magnificent stained glass windows, which were designed and made by N H J Westlake, one of the foremost authorities in England on stained glass windows and mosaics. The rose window above the Ark, executed by Erwin Bossanyi in 1937 in memory of Emma, Lady Rothschild, illustrates numerous aspects of Jewish ritual and tradition, while the centres of the side windows are all different, the framework remaining constant.

This is a terrible photo of a photo. The real print is much better quality and not yellow. Someday I'll scan it.
My dad is seventy-six, and in very good health, used to make gifts, using his scroll saw. Now, his hands are shaky and he's decided to stop, probably for his own safety.
We have quite a collection of his art. We've decided to cover one wall in our home with his work. And, of course, his portrait.

I like these a lot more than my other attempt with this yarn. The smaller stitch count and lace pattern do a great job of obscuring the color-striping.

I took Misty for a walk through the neighborhood, and at the last minute slung my camera over my shoulder. While walking along Fremont Street I spotted this interesting architectural ornamentation. I think you'd call these pilasters, even though they're not really flat columns. Maybe one of my architect friends can confirm or deny my use of the term. Ah, Frank, thanks -- corbels.
