Trust fall, baby
It's a trust fall, baby
Picture a place where it all doesn't hurt
Where everything's safe, and it doesn't get worse
Oh my, we see through bloodshot eyes
Picture a place, somewhere else far away
Where you know what they mean, and they mean what they say
To us and would that be enough?
Are we running out of time?
Are we hiding from the light?
Are we just too scared to fight
For what we want tonight?
Close your eyes and leave it all behind
Go where love is on our side
It's a trust fall, baby
It's a trust fall, baby
You and I and everyone alive
We can run into the fire
It's a trust fall, baby
Yeah, it's a trust fall, baby
Jump with me, come with me, burn like the sun
We'll talk, then we'll cry, then we'll laugh 'til we're done
Oh, my, it's like we're out our minds
We've been running for our lives
We've been hiding from the light
We've been far too scared to fight
For what we want tonight
Close your eyes and leave it all behind
Go where love is on our side
It's a trust fall, baby
It's a trust fall, baby
You and I and everyone alive
We can run into the fire
It's a trust fall, baby
Yeah, it's a trust fall, baby
What if we just fall?
I'm not going without you
(And you're not going alone)
I fell so far 'til I found you
(But you know what you know, when you know)
So, I'm not going without you
(And you're not going alone)
'Cause you know, when you know
Close your eyes and leave it all behind
Go where love is on our side
It's a trust fall, baby
It's a trust fall, baby
What if we just fall?
What if we just fall?
What if we just fall?
What if we just fall?
What if we just fall?
What if we just fall?

At this time of the year the dahlias are in their pomp. I went out to a local walled garden intent on taking images of all things Orange..and nothing else. I found that following this discipline really does help to make one more observant.

I took a drive up the Mckenzie river in Oregon yesterday. The peacefulness and beauty of this place never disappoints. This is a easy spot to get to just below Sahalie falls.
Completed in 1908, the old Public Trust Building in Lambton Quay, Wellington is the only surviving building made of a true New Zealand granite – from Tonga Bay in north-west Nelson.
Syeda Amina Trust® is doing LIVE TV Appeals for the GAZA CRISIS on UMMAH TV Sky Channel 828 throughout Ramadan 2014.
The current death toll in Gaza has now at least 200+, and with no Israelis killed of which of 34 deaths were innocent children. Today the Israeli Commandos are planning a ground incursion into Gaza that will inevitably increase the killing.
We urge all people of humanity - no matter what creed, colour or religion to please stand up for the people of Palestine and end this genocide and ethnic cleansing.
For decades the Palestinians have been treat as sub-humans with a continuous blockade to stop humanitarian aid. Slowly the Israeli Government has bombed then starved the population to death.
The current situation is such that hospital beds are completely full, blood is short
Al Shifa Hospital in Gaza has made a plea to Al Jazeera to provide vital medical aid urgently. Al-Shifa Hospital is the largest medical complex and central hospital of Gaza, located in the district of North Rimal.
We are collecting donations on UMMAH Channel and on our website and we urgently require donations for the following short term relief:
Food Packs: £75
Medical Kits: £100
Temporary Shelter: £100
These are the minimum donations you can donate but if you can donate higher then Allah Subhanawatala will increase you rizq ten fold.

Red-tailed Hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) - The Great Swamp National Wildlife Refuge,
Basking Ridge, New Jersey
Well, you really can't trust these guys, especially if you're a snake or squirrel. But what I'm referring to in my title is "The Raptor Trust" where this guy was nursed back to health. The Trust is essentially a bird hospital where injured raptors and other large birds (usually brought there by nature loving citizens), are nursed and cared for until they can be released back into the wild. The trust is also a permanent home for a dozen or so raptors (including a resident Bald Eagle) that were brought back to good health, but who's injuries were so debilitating they were unable to fend for themselves in the wild. For many years the The Raptor Trust released their patients back into the wild at The Great Swamp (a mile or so from "The Trust") This particular RT is a living testimonial to the good work done at the Raptor Trust, and wears evidence of its successful rehabilitation on its beak, and you can see it's back its old tricks making a living in the wild.
The trust doesn't tag their patients during recovery, so you may wonder how I know this guy was a patient. The secret is to look closely at its feathers where you can see wear on the shoulder feather tips that brushed up against its cage during its recovery.
The trust no longer releases it's patients in The Swamp at the request of the NPS who feared The Swamp was being over populated by The Trust's old patients. So these days, people friendly hawks are a little harder to come by at the swamp, and the squirrels, voles and snakes are a whole lot happier about that!
The exterior of Dyffryn House at Dyffryn Gardens.
It is in Dyffryn in the Vale of Glamorgan. Not too far from Cardiff. The gardens are owned by the National Trust. There is also a house on the site, that is undergoing refurbishment, it opens at midday (the parts that are open though).
Dyffryn House was first home to Admiral Sir Thomas Button in the 16th century. Then in the 18th century the Pryce family took ownership. The last family to live in the house was the Cory family from the late 19th century.
Bought by John Cory the house you see today is mostly his remodelling. John's only daughter Florence was the last of the family to live here, passing away in 1937.
The estate was bought by Sir Cennydd Traherne, a local land lower. This is when it began it's life as a training centre and then a conference centre.
The conference centre closed in 1998. For a brief period the house as due to become a hotel. Much of the damage was caused by this plan.
In 2013, 17 years after doors closed, the National Trust has reopened the house to keep the story going.
The house is Grade II* listed.
Location
Set within the large public grounds of Dyffryn Gardens; 2km to south of St Nicholas.
History
Built 1891-3 for John Cory, the well known local industrialist and philanthropist; the architects are said to be Habershon and Fawckner of Newport. There had been an Elizabethan house on the site, successively owned by the Button and Pryce Families. Dyffryn is principally renowned for its gardens, which were laid out for Reginald Cory (John's son) by Thomas Mawson, the internationally known and prolific garden designer; work began in 1904-5. After Cory's death Dyffryn was sold in 1937 and purchased by Sir Cennydd Traherne who leased the property to the County Council. Some internal alterations were carried out in conversion to a conference centre.
Interior
Lavish interiors the main rooms of which are designed in a wide variety of styles in a manner often favoured by wealthy C19 owners. Some of the chimneypieces are said to have been brought from other houses. The single most important room is the Great Hall which echoes those of major C16 country houses (eg Hampton Court and Burghley) with its full height, mock hammerbeam roof and large end window. The walls are enriched with two tiers of pilasters carrying friezes, a dentilled cornice to top and corbelled round arches with gilded keystones below over a panelled dado. 5-bay implied double-hammerbeam roof which is herringbone-boarded. Grand timber chimneypiece with massive cornice carried by full height terms; stone fireplace surround and overmantel with Ionic columns flanking coat of arms. Enormous window to N end with coloured glass depicting Queen Elizabeth I; round-arched doorway below with double doors and marble columns. Splayed dais recess to W wall with coffered ceiling. At S end the minstrels gallery is carried on curved brackets and spans an open passage leading from the staircase hall giving access to the Great Hall and neighbouring rooms, the doorways to which are surmounted by large plaster relief 'tondi'. To the E of the Great Hall is the Billiard Room which has a dado, with integral bench seating, below a deep band of carved panelling in an exceptionally florid Renaissance manner; similar frieze and chimneypiece and a deeply panelled ceiling with ceiling bosses. The Orchid room to S has painted ceiling, Ionic columns and gilded surrounds to wall panelling. Immediately next door is the Rose Room which is in a broadly C18 French style (see especially the delicately painted ceiling with corner roundels and the gilded festoons to the beaded surrounds of the wall panelling). The fine marble chimneypiece however is more ca.1600 in style with tapered figural pilasters, Smythson-like bosses and strapwork surrounding an equestrian figure with a French inscription: "Dieu Benit La Zouche de Courson". To the W is the Tulip Room (now Dining room) with ribbed ceiling including Gothic foliate bosses; bowed W end backs onto the Bar while the N wall backs onto the wainscotted Staircase Hall which at its E end has wall-arcading in a similar manner to that of the Great Hall. Broad stairs with long flights; shaped tread ends and panelled newels with finials. 1st floor landing has paired marble columns and beyond that the stairs continue in a similar manner to 2nd floor. The Oak room opens off the Staircase Hall. This was formerly the dining room and has a panelled ceiling, wainscotting and mullioned and transomed windows all in a Tudor/Elizabethan manner; similar style inglenook-like fireplace with oval smoke window. The two remaining public rooms to W are the Bar and Lounge for the conference centre. The former has lightly ribbed ceiling but luxuriantly foliage encrusted marble chimneypiece in an C18 manner and reuses a remarkable French style 7-double branch chandelier; modern panelling. The lounge has unusual plaster ceiling with broad ribs and thistle, rose and daffodil ornament to square, diamond and lozenge shaped panels. Fine French chateau style marble chimneypiece with putti flanking round-arched fireplace containing Fleur-de-lis fireback.
Exterior
Eclectic design derived from the French Renaissance and English Baroque styles, the former is particularly seen in the Mansard roof and some of the window treatment and the latter in the Great Hall block to the main facade. 2 storeys and attic; rendered elevations with freestone dressings. Hipped mansard slate roof with balustraded parapet over the main cornice; stone chimney stacks with bracketed cornices. The main front to N is dominated by the tall, square Hall block that projects to left of centre; this has balustraded parapet with urns and a pedimented front over a giant, 5-light, round-arched window enriched with keyblocked ornament. The symmetrical part of the design is that there are 3 storey 'towers' to centre and ends. Ground floor is advanced to right of the hall block with similar parapet and urns. Includes two, 5-light, bay windows, with similar glazing to that of the hall; between these is a similar 3-light window beside the present, round-arched, main entrance with spandrel ornament. In front of the hall block is a projecting lobby/porch and a porte-cochere onto the Carriage Court; this has paired Doric columns and a rusticated entrance surround. Glazing is mostly of horned sash type; the attic windows to the pedimented dormers are round-headed in a French manner; some heavily keystoned casement windows to ground floor left with voluted architraves. To right stone wall screens modernised part and the rear of the stable courtyard. 5-window left hand (E) side including shallow splayed bay. Symmetrical 13-bay garden front to S including projecting end 'towers' and broader projecting central bay, which is pedimented in a similar manner to that of the hall block; includes tripartite to 2nd floor and bay window below. The 'towers' have niches containing statues to ground floor. Midway between central and end bays are 2-storey splayed bays; these are linked to the central classical veranda which has paired Doric columns and balustraded parapet with ball finials. Modern extension to W and beyond that is the converted former stable courtyard with pyramidal clock-tower to S range, originally the coach-house; semi-circular windows to loft.

South Front
After many days of dismal weather the sun finally shone today. An opportunity to visit the local National Trust site - Nymans Gardens in Sussex.
The Union Trust Buildling in Pittsburgh. Its from the 17th floor of the Allegheny Building across the street in winter. I see it all day and finally went over to find out what's there. The security guard, Mr. Little, was very knowledgeable about its history explaining that the internal and external facade has been preserved over the years while the offices themselves have been modernized.
Alas, as the building is currently for sale, I was not allowed to take pictures inside or view most of the building.
What I was allowed to see is one of the largest bank vaults on the east coast housed in the basement. The door is a single ~3 foot thick, ~9 foot diameter piece of steel that cracked the brick streets when they hauled it in.
As for the little chapel structures pictures here? They house elevator equipment. :(

I put my trust into you guys in letting you lead the way on this walk…..And now look……We are lost in the deepest jungle miles away from any civilisation ……And to make matters worse…… I swear I caught a glimpse of a python snake in the poison yellow plant undergrowth……And for goodness sake don’t look behind you now, but I swear that is a black widow spider on the gate …..And don’t get me started on the pack Lions I can hear behind the hedge row……Gulps…..Now form a ring of steel around me to protect me from this place and get me back to civilisation as quickly as you can……..What do you mean that I have over exaggerated our problem by calling a worm a snake……A money spider a black widow…..And a herd of dairy cows a pride of lions ……And making a butter cup into a poison plant……And that the facts are, that we are in the Oxfordshire countryside, in middle England……..Ummmmmmmm…….Well okay…….Maybe it was a bit of over reaction on my part……But you should know by now….. That I like to see a pub or two on our walks……And look as I might……I really don’t see one……Do you….No …..I thought not……What that you say…..You have packed a couple of beers in my camera bag for me to sit and enjoy……. That’s great news guys……Now come and sit close with me whilst I enjoy…..And let me say that I never really doubted you guys……As I always knew I could trust a Sheltie to get it right ….
