WEEK 37 – Hernando Car Place(s) Construction
We're traveling back to the past for the first photo of this week's set! In this street view (courtesy Google) from April 2013, all appears perfectly normal here at the Shell Rapid Lube adjacent to the gas station of the same name but accessible through a different station's (currently unoccupied, and de-gas-station-ized) parking lot. But something strange would soon transpire...

Pricey gasoline and diesel at this new Shell station in Regina. Good thing the station's not open yet! It does make me wonder why they didn't enter 888.8 in to test the complete LED display.

Blue buttercream waves on top with fondant dolphins and various sized chocolate shells around sides of cake attached with royal icing. The clam and four shells on top are hand sculpted out of fondant. The coral is hand piped out of royal icing, there is luster dust on the fondant pieces.

I had an idea for a background for this one involving ice planets and the hollowed out shells of giant creatures used as the exoskeleton and armor for rocket powered mecha that skate along the ice, but nothing in the way of cool names has popped into my head.

I struggle with getting a good photograph of this shell. On the one hand it is incredibly detailed; and yet on the other, it is so hard to get those details to appear in camera. I shot this with back lighting coming through sheers on my workroom window, then layered it in photoshop with another image of a marble tile. A lightroom vignette finished it off.
These pupils were encouraged to draw these shells from life using only watercolour and paintbrushes. I think the colours and textures are brilliant
A brief hiatus from the kind of architecture I usually post. The sunset last night was unusual for our part of Germany and my outing with the dog turned out to take a little bit longer than planned. But the light changed so dramatically over the course of 45 minutes, every time I decided enough was enough, I had to try another exposure and another.......
Be patient with me, I may have to post more than one.
