Today's photo was taken this afternoon in the City Centre of Coventry. The view is looking across part of Lady Herbert's Garden towards Lady Herbert's Homes. The buildings were constructed in the mid 1930's as a pair of Almshouses. They are now privately run by a charitable trust, Separate from the public Gardens.
The photo was taken using the app Cortex Camera on my iPhone 6.
First I used the app Snapseed to edit the photo. I cropped and straightened the image then added the Tonal Contrast filter. I also boosted the Vibrance, Saturation and Warmth, along with increasing the structure and sharpness. Next I used the app Painteresque to add the Painteresque 2 preset. I then used the app DistressedFX to add the Egret overlay and the Vanilla texture. Finally I used PhotoToaster to add the Recover Highlights preset, the Vibrant FX and a Medium dark Vignette. I then added the Canvas texture and the Antique frame.
Tiny hair-like structures of salt grow and combine to form the salt flats at Badwater in Death Valley. Here is a wider view of the same area showing how the salt combines to form geometric pools.

Inspired by Stephen Shore's gorgeous photo; U.S.10 Post Falls, Idaho and it's lyrical beauty and acceptance of the world around us I went this morning searching for just such a scene.
I looked for a location with minimal expression and inherent beauty, yet without drama. Found it 16 miles away.
Some photos are created in a snap or two. this one took me 10 minutes to compose and click.
Full of elements, yet those puddles are the most important ones.
They give your eyes a runway to take off and escape this place.
A small helicopter build, not particularly great, but I like it. It's the only one Cayuse model in minifig scale apart from one made by LoganLego I believe. He used flex tube for the canopy, while I tried droid hands at first and then changed to this brick built hunk of trans-clear bricks. I think it doesn't look that bad, and it really helps with balancing the helicopter, long tail and structure behind the skids make it really rear-heavy.
