I would like to thank all the young and old gentlemen at my local railway station for wearing their DMs with pride today. Never had so many sightings at the station before!
Tokyo Big Sight (東京ビッグサイト Tōkyō Biggu Saito) es el sobrenombre popular del Centro de Exposición Internacional de Tokio (東京国際展示場 Tōkyō Kokusai Tenjijō), un centro de convenciones japonés abierto en abril de 1996. Localizado en Odaiba, en la Bahía de Tokio, el centro es uno de los centros de convención más grandes en la ciudad, y una de las representaciones más icónicas es la Torre de Conferencias. Dos veces al año se celebra el Comiket, una convención de venta de dōjinshi.
Contraída por la Oficina de Finanzas del Gobierno Metropolitano de Tokio, la construcción del sitio estuvo a cargo de ocho contratistas en total, entre ellos compañías como las Corporaciones Hazama y Shimizu. La construcción empezó en octubre de 1992 y terminó en octubre de 1995. Costó en total 40.392 millones de Yen. El 45% de esa suma fue al que estaba a cargo de la Torre, la Corporación Hazama.
The Future of Bulgaria. Although Bulgaria is in the EU, it is threaten to loose all the young people.
my first shot when i landed at the barcelona airpot was this view of the control tower. samsung did a pretty good job of advertising on that spaceship-like structure. little did i know that i would be the owner of the samsung tablet! just got one yesterday for christmas! love it!
Seems this type of sighting is getting frequent. This was in the sw sky last night from Montreal. It stayed in the same spot in the sky for a good half hour. I actually drove to a darker spot in LaSalle by the river away from the glare of lights. It all of a sudden started flying west in the sky then disappeared. I know you think I'm nuts but?

Being a medic, I refused to have all the bells and whistles that my infantry buds lusted after... besides I'm a dead-eye with just my iron sights anyways.
And since we're in Iraq, its ALWAYS dusty no matter how many times I clean it. Whoever invented dust should be shot.

Sound for Sight is raising funds and awareness towards Sightsavers’ work eliminating the World’s leading cause of preventable blindness, trachoma.
Trachoma is a bacterial infection linked to inadequate water and sanitation and passed on by flies. It is referred to as ‘neglected tropical diseases’ and can be prevented and ultimately eliminated entirely.
The Sound for Sight audience will be taken on a spectacular sensory experience during the show that has been carefully curated by Sound for Sight Founder, Laura Westcott and ‘Mo Pleasure’ the former Music Director of Earth, Wind & Fire.

“I am very excited and delighted to perform at Sound for Sight because being blind from birth, sound is one of the most important tools we possess as blind and visually impaired people. So, treatment and eradication of blindness is a blessing for the growth on the human experience.” – Charlotte Kelly

At first, I thought the range markings too worn to read but some work with a sanding block revealed the range markings hidden beneath the grime and yak grease. According to the specs, the Martini Henry rifle was sighted from 100-1500 yards, 100-400 yards via an 100 yard incremental graduated ramp, and 500-1500 yards raised leaf back-sight. And, while it looks like the numbers are 900, 200, 300, 800 they are, in fact, Nepali for 100, 200, 300, 400.
"Out of Sight" written and illustrated by Charles Lapointe, Harcourt Childrens Books, 1995. I liked the illustrations but the book only received so-so ratings. Trying to show children there's life outside without video games is a tough sell these days. In my collection. Dec. 2022
...sight for sore eyes! As we crossed Khardungla and started to descend, we saw this spectacular sight - where mountains were in layers - each with a color of brown and ice!
The bue hut is the army base, where they stay, as they watch over!

(Taken while blindfolded, along Main Street.)
This is one of the people I encountered during my walk. At the time, I was feeling and photographing a pedestal and its sculpture of two bears, totally unable to figure out what it was. The man was intrigued, and we had a long conversation while I aimed the best I could and took a few pictures of him.
Finally I decided to call it a day, and when I removed my blindfold discovered that he was holding (in his right hand) a hand-printed sign that read “Seek Wisdom.”
