Not quite a high enough shutter speed employed in this quick grab but I was happy to catch a lone street walker on what was quite a busy high street in Oxford.

La escultura, a tamaño natural, está hecha en bronce. La muchacha apoya la espalda en la fachada del Palacio y cruza la pierna izquierda por detrás, con la puntera del zapato en el suelo. Calza sandalias de verano y lleva libros en el brazo derecho.
Su autor, Antonio SantÃn, la bautizó Tras Julia. Un dÃa, vimos que la definÃa como un monumento a la Antigua Universidad de Madrid

The life-size sculpture is made of bronze. The girl leans her back against the facade of the Palace and crosses her left leg behind her, with the toe of her shoe on the ground. She wears summer sandals and carries books on her right arm.
Its author, Antonio SantÃn, baptized it Tras Julia. One day,
we saw that he defined it as a monument to the Old University of Madrid
The architectural theme in these three photographs today culminates in this impressive University of Tasmania apartment block. It sits right alongside the community gardens I have mentioned in my previous photographs. The university describes the unique process of construction employed by local architect and building firms:
"The Inveresk apartments are Tasmania's first prefabricated timber-framed multi-storey residential development, combining prefabricated, lightweight timber framing with structural cross-laminated timber (CLT) in favour of traditional concrete and steel. The building was designed by local firms Morrison and Breytenbach and Circa Morris-Nunn Architects, with technical expertise from the University's Centre for Sustainable Architecture with Wood and the team's structural engineers."

This was the first assignment where I was both the story writer and photographer. The article I wrote is found below this photo's byline, seen here:

Studies In The Art Of The Slack Key
by Bill Adams
The Waimea Music Exchange store at Parker Center was filled with the beautiful sounds of Hawaiian music this past Saturday morning as a group of students from Cornell University participated in a slack key guitar lesson taught by the Big Island's own Don Kauli'a, whose album "Sweet Wahine" was nominated for a 2008 Grammy Award.
The students are enrolled in Cornell's Earth and Environmental Systems (EES) Field Program. A 5-month course which spans the entire spring semester, students engage in field, class and laboratory studies focused on the various ecosystems of our Hawaiian island chain and of Hawaii's history and culture.
Led by Professor Dr. Alexandra Moore, the EES Field Program is based out of Waimea and hosted by the Hawaii Preparatory Academy. The students' living quarters is the 8-bedroom Waiaka House near the main campus of HPA.
Dr. Moore explained, "The students are immersed in studies geared towards "Kumu Pa'a I Ka 'Aina, which translates to 'Knowledge and understanding that comes from the land.'"
The stated mission of the EES Field Program is "To inspire stewardship of the Earth through first-hand experience with the power, and fragility, of Earth's interconnected systems."
Upon completion of the EES Field Program, students will achieve 18 credit hours from courses such as; Field Study of the Earth System, Biogeochemistry of the Hawaiian Islands, Field Study of Marine Ecosystems, Internship Experience, and an Introduction to Hawaiian History and Culture, which included Saturday's slack key guitar lesson.
The Program stresses the importance of respecting the Hawaiian ancestral lands and to give something back to the community by engaging in a variety of service learning (in class) projects and local volunteer opportunities. Students are also encouraged to explore ways in which they can contribute to the well-being of their adopted community.
Before Saturday's lesson began, the students were able to briefly meet and chat with another famous Big Island slack key guitar master, Sonny Lim, a 2007 Grammy Award winner for his work on the album, "Slack Key Guitar Volume 2".
Participating in Saturday's guitar lessons were a diverse group of five Cornell University students; Hannah Kubica, a junior from Little Falls, New York, Keisuke Irie, a senior from Bergen County, New Jersey, Matt Connelly, a sophomore from Syracuse, New York, Kourtney Reynolds, a senior from San Diego, California and Tyler Huth, a sophomore from Boston, Massachusetts.

Rover School is in session...
In Basic Rover Operations 101, one of the first skills we must master is the use of the Grabber. This clawed implement provides a handy way to interact with the environment without needing to leave the comfort of your plush upholstered pilot's chair or risk contamination from unknown flora or fauna.
Here some PinkTron Exchange Students pass the test with a demonstration of their Grabber prowess. (Don't worry, the Daisy Gazer student volunteer was unharmed in the demonstration.)

I am currently studying photography, specifically I am studying my new Nikon D810. The new Camera and lens arrived with 525 pages of manuals between the two of them. Yesterday I received delivery of two books with 1,266 pages of Nikon D810 related content in which to study. Today I have a headache, but I think it's because I spent yesterday in the backyard while pollen rained down from the pine trees.

Melbourne is getting a new underground railway line and creating more stations. Around the perimeter of the new 'Anzac' station was an unattractive hoarding. The local grammar college obtained permission for the students to paint their vision of trains at stations. Making the whole area of interest.
