despite the seemingly similar look of these shophouses, this view across the corridors is just further proof that these buildings house people of all different cultural backgrounds.
on the far most left, the owners have cleverly injected the façade with a new look while retaining its traditional form. door knockers are added instead of the conventional doorbell. (or is it the other way round? lol) and next door, the chinese culture adds to the unique flavour of this neighborhood.
and more :
Joo Chiat is home to many early, transitional, late and art-deco shophouses and early-style bungalows which lend the area its unique character. The shophouse styles have motifs and ornate details that marry Chinese, Malay, European and Peranakan culture.Joo Chiat was designated a ‘conservation area’ in 1993, giving it the same status as historic sites such as Chinatown, Little India and Emerald Hill as the neighborhood represents a significant stage in urban development in Singapore from the 1900s to 1940s.
Seemingly most abundant on the red silt-sandstones of the Chugwater Formation, the scabrous stiff leaves are distinctive and persist in desiccated condition over the winter. This species was not found in the sagebrush steppe of the Pryor Mountain area. This site lies along the escarpments just to the east of the Horseshoe Bend area along the Bighorn River northeast of Lovell Wyoming.
You have probably heard about Vietnam mainly through stories of its historical struggles for independence. But, there is much more to discover about this country which unique culture is more than four thou¬sand years old and abounds with wonderful legends and historical monuments. Vietnam is definitely a must-see destination to enrich your world-wide travelling.
Offering a tropical climate, Vietnam dis¬plays green vegetation all year round. Throughout its seemingly endless range of mountains, visitors can explore mysterious caves, some of which were discovered in recent years. Not only do they offer an unfor¬gettable scenery to admire, but they also pro¬vide great opportunities for geological, archaeological and historical research.
Visitors will also witness the peaceful coexistence of fifty-four ethnic groups, each with their own traditions, festivals, clothing, songs and dances. All of them have worked in harmony for thousands of years in order to build a nation and to form a strong
culture that has been able to assimilate other eastern and western cultures, while preserving its own unique identity.
Travelling over Vietnam, whether in ancient or modernized cities, in populous or peaceful villages, in remote mountain hamlets of ethnic minorities or quiet islands, is a great experience to get in touch with a fascinating nation, where tourists are always welcome.
Travel Atlas will provide useful tips, addresses, and precious information on geography, history, culture and tourism for those who wish to discover Vietnam.
In a seemingly academic attitude this man seriously studies his daily newspaper in the corner of my favourite café.

The Making of 'Chin Warmer':
Same day, same place as 'Deep Thought' but a different time on this blustery, wet and chilly late spring day.
My Port Macquarie Panthers Camera Club mates and I had been driven inside due to the weather so I made sure I got a seat that would give me a good view of the small elevated table in the corner. It is a great place for my innocent candid subjects to sit as there is light coming in from behind and to their left, creating a good deep shadow in the corner behind them.
This photograph is the type of shot I was originally after when I shot 'Deep Thought' so I was a fortunate photographer that day to nail both.
Enjoy!

Seemingly delicate this small branch added a small challenge for this old lens, my eyes and fingers.
This seemingly injured bird was hanging out in the boat basin, moving from slip to slip offing fantastic looks.
Seemingly, I was one of the first 1,000 people to register for the London cycle hire scheme. So they sent me a free t-shirt two sizes too small, but with this on the back to ensure that I didn't wear it anyway!
One Seemingly Boring Friday Night Turned Out To Be Very Fun Despite The Lashing Rain And The Terrible Surface. Half Way Through Looked Up And There Was An Old Man Staring Down At Me And He Smiled Politely And Walk On... Raises The Question Of What Was He Doing Out At Two In The Morning.
Selattyn Road Cemetery, Glyn Ceiriog, North Wales.
The cemetery has not been used for some time now and is seemingly abandoned.
There is seemingly no one in the Space Needle, the site of Seattle's hottest New Years Eve ticket night before last. All the festive decorations are put away, and even the sky has turned gray and rainy (although the light spill often makes it look chocolate in photos). It is back to normal for another year, but it won't be quite a normal year for the Space Needle. A year-long celebration is just gearing up. There will be some big doings to celebrate it's 50th anniversary. Lots of transformation is going on below at Seattle Center. There was disappointment that a ginormous Ferris wheel (think similar scale to the London Eye) was not able to be installed as planned. Last night it was just as well because it was so windy it probably would not have been able to operate anyway. I'm surprised this shot came out as clear as it did given the cold gusts that pummeled me. I just had a mini tripod with me and the wind was shaking the camera so badly I called it quits pretty quickly. You can see what I mean below :-).
Seemingly high street shops are now selling woolly hazmat suits for those afraid of the Northern Line #365
Fantastic day! A seemingly endless stream of bikes that went on for hours. The sound of the bikes was so strong you could feel it in your bones. One of the coolest sounds on earth. There are actually 2 separate Rolling Thunder organizations : Rolling Thunder® Motorcycle Rally, Washington DC, Inc. and Rolling Thunder®, Inc, National
seemingly this boating pond on burnham on sea beach is to be removed.so if you ever thought about photographing it nows the time
Seemingly floating on Lake Pichola, the whitewashed Lake Palace Hotel was a former summer palace built by the Maharana in 1740. Today, it is perhaps the most romantic and certainly the most photographed hotel in India. Beyond it on the lake shore is Udaivilas, Oberoi's superdeluxe hotel property.
So continues my seemingly endless quest for a dependable compact Yashica C/Y body to back up my Contax 137MD. This one looks very nice, and the meter seems to work, and the battery check lights up, but the shutter will not fire, and the film will not advance. I am hoping that it is a simple mechanical problem, as the film rewind button on the bottom is also stuck in the depressed position, but I won't know for sure until take the bottom off. But it may be that this camera is suffering an electronic fault similar to those common to the Minolta X-700/570/370 bodies. I hope not, because otherwise, this camera looks very good, even the original soft leatherette covering is (mostly) intact.
The camera came with an off-brand 35~75mm zoom lens. This one was made with the "Katana" brand, so maybe it is as sharp as Damascus steel.
This seemingly simple picture captures many aspects of my study abroad experience. First, the picture was taken on King's Beach which is where we spent many of our days. It was also our view every day from our home. The city in front of me is PE which took us in as friends and family. I am also wearing a Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University sweatshirt which is wear we attended school. Finally, the South African flag holds significance for many South Africans as a symbol of a new democracy and for others it serves as a reminder of a place we call a second home.
Seemingly in a hotel or restaurant. Identity of the couple on the right unknown. Sadly, Barbara and Don, as well as my mother, have all left us.
A seemingly mild ride reveals itself to be an overwhelming thrill on stomachs full of greasy food.

By Paula Rego
This work is a seemingly innocent scene showing four young girls. It exemplifies Rego's powerful use of iconography and socio-political allegory. Despite the blissful atmosphere, there is an underlying sense of threat, amplified by the rake in the foreground. The girl in the background is taunting a pelican. The bird, which according to legend pierced its own heart to feed its young with its blood, is a symbol of self-sacrifice. Under Salazar's regime women were venerated as child-bearers, but at the same time gender discrimination and violence towards them was rife.

Paula Rego
(July – October 2021)
The UK's largest and most comprehensive retrospective of Paula Rego’s work to date.
Since the 1950s, Paula Rego has played a key role in redefining figurative art in the UK and internationally. An uncompromising artist of extraordinary imaginative power, she has revolutionised the way in which women are represented.
This exhibition tells the story of this artist’s extraordinary life, highlighting the personal nature of much of her work and the socio-political context in which it is rooted. It also reveals the artist’s broad range of references, from comic strips to history painting.
It features over 100 works, including collage, paintings, large-scale pastels, ink and pencil drawings and etchings. These include early works from the 1950s in which Rego first explored personal as well as social struggle, her large pastels of single figures from the acclaimed Dog Women and Abortion series and her richly layered, staged scenes from the 2000-10s.
This is a unique opportunity to survey, in the city that Rego has lived in and called home for most of her life, the full range of her work.

Seemingly just as busy these days and always worth a visit - especially if you like 37's at the moment.
On view are 25059 (KWVR) 20066(HNRC) and the regulars 85006, 83012, and 81002.
Seemingly unbothered by my presence, (unless you look at the other shot!) But he did calm down very quickly and just stayed there for ages.

Seemingly abandoned, the top floor of the factory appears unchanged since the factory closed in 1976.

Seemingly unrelated, the sextant, earthquakes, and port gave rise to what we now know as Portugal. In short, the invention of the sextant jump started the “age of discovery” and Portugal’s conquest of Brasil, Spain, Madagascar, Macau and others. Barrels of wine enticed sailors to endure the stench of life abroad. To keep the wine from fermenting into vinegar, brandy and cherries were added and thereby unwittingly creating port. England’s thirst literally fortified Portugal’s economy in the 18th century.
From the 2000 flamingos that winter in the Rio Formosa to the Moorish, Romans and Celtic, Portugal has a history of migrations.
This history is what shapes Portugal’s architecture, language and cuisine abound. For example, centuries of Roman influence account for the number of words that begin with “Al”, the word Arabic sounds like “a rabbit”.
In the Algarve Moorish mosques became Catholic monasteries and are now train depots, police stations, and other public facilities. Castles of various dictators are tourists attractions.
The seemingly endless onslaught on men wanting a piece (or two) of me has been grinding my nerves lately. I've been unusually comfortable in my skin, not feeling the need to impress, but content with the way things are, caring more about the girl I am once I open my mouth than the one so accustomed to batting mascaraed eyelashes and smirking at handsome strangers. Maybe it's too much to ask, but I'd like to think I'm a little more than just easy on the eyes.
Seemingly none. Earmarked for demolition as part of a £35m 'regeneration' of Lime Street providing hotel, retail and (yet more) student accommodation.

The seemingly distorted and almost mirrored-looking ridgelines at upper right were caused by the weather conditions at the time.

The interior is a delight, seemingly unrestored, long and low with a plastered ceiling to the nave, a strange almost featureless chancel arch and a fine C15 panelled wagon roof to the chancel having carved wall plates with fleurons, ribs and bosses (although most of these restored). The clue was the small windows at the west end of the nave for a west gallery, although the present one seems to be more of a reinstatement of what was once here rather than original C17 work which the listing information says (and Pevsner offers early C19). It is accessed by a pull down ladder on small wheels, and you can closely inspect the Royal Arms dated 1792. Much of the woodwork is C17, there is extra seating available by pulling out sliding benches. Painted texts on the wall too, including one "The aged women...... shall teach the young women to be sober, to be chaste, keepers at home, to love their husbands." The north transept is subdivided and has a glazed screen to the two sections beyond (locked). The only jarring features, clearly seen in my view, the electronic sixties/seventies-styled organ behind the C13 font and the prominently displayed fire extinguisher! The village stocks are preserved in the porch, presumably for among others those young women who did not heed the advice inside!

Among Chiang Mai's seemingly endless array of richly adorned temples, Wat Chedi Luang is one of the most unmissable, consisting of various intricate temple buildings arranged around the massive ruined chedi that gives the complex it's name, a huge brick-built stupa that has remained in it's dramatic earthquake-shattered state since medieval times.
The huge chedi was begun in 1391 and wasn't completed until 1475, at which point it's spire rose to nearly 300ft. The huge stupa only remained complete until 1545 when an earthquake brought most of the upper part crashing down, never to be rebuilt. There was some limited reconstruction in the early 1990s, restoring the form of the tower part of the structure to something like it's original state.
Some of the sculpted decoration has been restored too; originally there was a terrace of lifesize elephants halfway up the base (very little remains of the originals, though those at the south west corner have been reconstructed. The staircases on each side are guarded by the largest, most fearsome nagas we saw, more monstrous than the usual elegant serpents.
The main wihan (prayer hall) only dates from the 1920s but is a particularly beautiful building with facades covered in gilded foliate ornament, and striking Buddha sculptures within.
"...seemingly imaginary Cape Horn. To quote Jerry Kirby: “every time I ask it seems to be a thousand miles further away than the last time I asked.” I told him to stop asking. We've been thinking and talking about it for so long now that I'm starting to wonder if it’s still there."

Of coEpilogue 2urse there were more, seemingly magical, moments waiting for us to arrive on this particular trip alone ( an eccentric mansion in Milwaukee, driving in the runaway parade lap at road America, the Hotel Wisconsin that time had bypassed completely ( $8/night ) and getting lost in the Deep South while barely touching northern Indiana. We made almost every weekend that summer into an adventure,,,mostly on the road. Although they were all eye-opening , none quite measured up to the first, or ever will.

Seemingly Abandoned
23 May 2013 -- 143/365
Johnston, Rhode Island
The remains of a hay wagon and some farm equipment lay seemingly abandoned on the border of Dame Farm and Snake Den State Park. Technically, the two overlap since the historic farm was is part of the state managed property when Snake Den was purchased from the Palazzi family in 1969. The state plans to maintain this portion of the farm as a working farm to preserve Rhode Island's "rich but diminishing agricultural heritage."
Despite the name, Snake Den is not associated with any of the reptiles that reputedly occupied much of the state. Rather, it's named for a canyon-like fissure that is a remnant of the state's glacial past. The 1000 acre park has numerous hiking trails that were sparsely marked the last time I wandered through the area. Some of the trails lead to this field, although the abundance of deer ticks (and the accompanying threat of Lyme Disease) in the area has reduced the number of summer visitors significantly.
Post processing started with a brilliant warm filter in Topaz Adjust. I adjusted adaptive exposure, regions, contrast, and protect highlights. A levels adjustment was added in PSE.
