A really cool fountain I saw today at the Asian American Festival - Japantown, San Francisco
Such awesome weather!
Yuba in a triangular cat house in the living room in California in February of 2016. He knew something was going on but not what (we were in the middle of fixing up the house to sell it and moving to Japan).

This delightful triangular building was designed by Sir Thomas Tresham (father of one of the Gunpowder Plotters) and constructed between 1593 and 1597. It is a testament to Tresham’s Roman Catholicism: the number three, symbolising the Holy Trinity, is apparent everywhere. There are three floors, trefoil windows and three triangular gables on each side.On the entrance front is the inscription ‘Tres Testimonium Dant’ (‘there are three that give witness’), a Biblical quotation from St John’s Gospel referring to the Trinity. It is also a pun on Tresham’s name; his wife called him ‘Good Tres’ in her letters.
Equilateral triangular units (Tomoko Fuse)

The orange center doesn´t close perfectly due to the unit angles.
My design?
Early CNR RDC Cars were fitted with a triangular number board above one end of the car, i'm working on installing one on the end of my old Proto 1000 RDC car.
Stained glass panel by Julie Dickens.
Three years of study at the Architectural Stained Glass Department at Swansea culminated in the degree show, with each student (usually fewer in number by now than at the start!) allocated a window space in the building to display their work, with a mixture of panels representing the various techniques explored and styles developed by each individual.
I usually took a full set of photos of each show (I was known for being obsessive compulsive with a camera even then!) and felt uploading the full set best represents the range of talents and ideas, in many cases of people who never worked in the medium in post-college life.
If any of my contemporaries are looking in I hope they will be flattered and see this as a tribute to their achievements. If for any reason anyone is unhappy about their work being shared online do please let me know.
This is a random photo as I've been slacking in the photography department lately. Have some plans to change that in the near future.
The ongoing tragedy of English Martyrs church in Hillmorton, formerly home to one of the largest schemes of dalle de verre glazing in the country and now shorn of it's coloured glass, which is to be replaced by double glazing.
Three of the four major abstract windows, by noted artist Leonard Jonah Jones, were removed in late 2011 following the deterioration of some sections of the glazing on the south and mainly west sides. Individual chunks of glass had fallen, largely due to thermal expansion and contraction and the smooth edges of the glass (instead of the more usual knapped edges) being less secure. The fourth window remains in place but is likely to be removed in the next week.
The major problem however was compression distortion in certain areas (principally the west side) caused by the accumulated weight of the panels and the inadequacy of the concrete transoms to support them (these were poorly bonded to the building and thus were the main cause of failure), the church remains closed since one of these concrete beams fell out in April 2010, sending the panel above it crashing to the ground.
There were those who wanted to see the windows retained and the defective areas restored, but there were no cheap options, and sadly a rather more brutal alternative was favoured by the majority of the decision makers in the parish, and this major piece of 20th century church art has been lost as a result.
As someone who has known and loved these windows all my life I find the situation heartbreaking. However many are rather less sentimental about the glass, some to the point of welcoming the opportunity to remove it, and to make matters worse my position on the 'wrong side' of the window debate seems to have made me deeply unpopular amongst the more influential people in the parish; having been told my input was unwelcome, I can't help feeling that way generally.
Here the removed panels, many broken into pieces the process, are seen as they were left lying in the churchyard where they remained for some time, but have now been moved. I still cling to the hope that all the elements can be kept together and stored, possibly for some form of eventual reuse somewhere. If anyone has space for indefinite storage for 76 panels of assorted sizes (many in smaller pieces) of dalle de verre glazing I'd love to know!
