The weir where the Dene flows into the Avon. The weir was part of the landscape designed by "Capability Brown".
This photo is from an album Elstner Hilton compiled in Japan between 1914 and 1918.
Elstner was my spouse's uncle.
While Uncle Elstner sometimes annotated photos that required an explanation, he never dated the pictures. So all we know is they were taken between January, 1914 and December, 1918.
Rica, the Two-toed sloth in the Tropical House at Marwell decided to put on a little show for us. He went from looking like an extra hairy coconut to lifting his head, making eye contact and waving his paw.
There are many details which cover the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel, including many bas reliefs, stone carving and statues which you can find all over, such as this photo we took of one particular detail found between two lovely columns on the monument.

Built between 1935 and 1937 as a WPA project, it was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.
Went out last night with Jo. I couldn't be bothered with dancing after a busy week last week and working late yesterday.
Trent Barton, ADL Enviro 200 MMC, 157 followed by sister 151 head for Ilkeston on the 'Two' service from Nottingham. This 10-minute service frequency was thrown into chaos due to the insane levels of Christmas traffic congestion along the route. This resulted in the clumping of buses and gaps in the service. A 50-minute gap had elapsed by the time these buses appeared, only to be followed by a third bus, 155 right behind. Unfortunately, there are no on-foot inspectors to regulate services these days, everything done by GPS location and radio communication, which doesn't seem to cut it when it gets this bad.
Interestingly, this was the second day of these buses operating on this service, their launch on this route being on Sunday 21st December 2025, ousting Volvo B8REs from 2015. The replacement 2020 ADLs have come from Kinchbus of Loughborough where they had been used on their Skylink service.
Additionally on the day of this photo, there were at least three stand-in buses working the route (Volvos 723, 747 & Versa 821); I don't know why that was? I did witnesses one of the ADLs (156) blowing off excess air pressure, sounding like an angry rattle-snake as it went down the road. It's never a good idea to mass change things outright before Christmas, it generally only adds to the seasonal chaos and frustrations for passengers and drivers alike.

Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... thanks to you all.
Two sides to me and my photography. The left side is my photo look. Smiley-ish with cool make up and hair all pretty (or so I tell myself) and the right side is how I look usually. None to little make up, hair tied back in a variety of 3 styles and just being normal really. Of course, most of you only see my glammed up version (except a few photos where I have no make up on)
I'll break it down - on the right side I have on no make up whatsoever. On the left side, I have on, mascara, eyeliner, blusher, lipstick and lipstick lock. The hair is natural on both sides and is pinned back in the middle and tied in a small bun on the right. Thats it :-)

I achieved this effect by editing in the Nik Collection Color Efex 4 using, amongst others, the bleach bypass filter as adjusted by me.
This image may not be fine art or the best photo I've ever taken. It does contain two stories though. One, a story, story and the second a church story!
The story, story;
"Enter the Snaesfelljokull crater, which is kissed by Scatari's shadow before the first of July, adventurous traveller, and thou wilt descend to the centre of the Earth."
Journey to the centre of the Earth, Jules Verne. Well the mountain in the background is Snaefell and its Jokul (glacier)
Church Story.
This unusually black church dates from 1703. Built by locals it was not ordained until much recent times due to religious politics, Churches in Iceland are of two distinct flavours. This kind of traditional shape. But normally white with red, green or turf roofs (go to Hof for the later). Or they are more recent affairs made of concrete, large in size and of what I would describe as a look at me I'm the only church in the village style!

These breakers are just north of Sunset Beach near Stanley Park in Vancouver. Look closely and you'll find two young women sitting on the rocks enjoying the sunset and the early evening. I used the HDR toning feature of PS in post for this image.

A second tent was seen going up alongside the first little gypsy bear tent down at Lagniappe in New Orleans! How exciting! We also got word that there may be more, and it's possible they may all be headed for Riversong on the Elk River here in Alabama, where there are many more tiny bears!
Happy Teddy Bear Tuesday!

I fell in love with these little tents! The lady who creates them makes two different sizes. They are crafted with so much care and flare! Bev is an amazing person and an artist in sewing and imagination. Her tents are simple wonders - I can say that after an attempt at even a pup tent was a complete failure for me to create! And these adorable tents in MANY different colors and designs come with two sleeping bags for anyone needing a cozy rest! She & I are having so much fun with a collaboration! No, don't ask yet!

As the gypsy tents happened, I also found and fell in love with some tiny knit bears that have come ALL the way from England! Angela's artful little bears are indeed the gypsy bears that are gathering together here in the States! They are articulated and such colorful little travelers full of personality! There are more than a few of her little ones that she has sent on their way to me, and I know for a fact that several have other destinations, too. So no, I am not telling how many bears yet, either! Watch for "the gathering!"
