Sorry, my dear flickr friends, my little daugther is ill and I haven`t time to give invites and comments!
Two beautiful blossoms for the price of one. I don't know the name of these flowers, but they are very pretty and captured locally.
just for fun. a painting i did for work. it was just supposed to be something silly for the facebook page. the idea was to portray the characters from a movie in the style of some artist. so this is painted over a famous photograph and (though it's mostly only texture remains) it has a similar composition. i actually used another painting for the project, but i thought i'd just let this one see daylight. can you guess the original photographer? can you guess the movie?

Two similar yet obviously different grasshoppers. Top one is a meadow grasshopper, Chorthippus parallelus. I think the smaller one on the right is a lesser marsh grasshopper, Chorthippus albomarginatus - but I'm not 100% on that one, comments welcome. Correction - two Meadow Grasshoppers, f & m.
I thought this was just a spider (thanks to E_O_S for the ID) but turns out its a harvestman (a close relative), it wasn't until I had a close up look at him that I spotted the face on his back..... I wonder is it to ward off predators??

Two Cool Dudes, Matt Chapman, in the Embry Riddle Extra 300L, and Bill Stein, in the Edge 540, half of the 4CE, performing at the 2016 Oregon International Air Show held August 5-7, 2016, in Hillsboro, Oregon.
Two Harbors Lighthouse was built in 1892. The lighthouse is still an active aid to navigation. It is also a museum and Bed and Breakfast.
London United TA209 (SN51 SYH) loads for Surbiton on a 281 journey, with another bus running full route to Tolworth behind.
Bringing up the rear of all four buses is an Abellio Surrey 514 - I'd seen enough of the Christmas chaos in Kingston and escaped on said 514, heading to Surbiton to find the new Enviro200 I'd seen (and missed) on the other 514 working earlier in the day at West Molesey.
Eden Street, Kingston, Greater London.
From the small temple of Nekhbet-Hathor or as it also known by the name Temple of Amenhotep III.
On the wall behind the two Hathor columns, Nekhbet is in a form of a vulture above Amenhotep III, when he receives life from Horus. And Nekhbet in her human form with Amenhotep III offering to her. The goddess's barque is also depicted on this wall.
In the wall beside the entrance, Thutmose IV and Amenhotep III receive the offerings.

100 Block of S. Michigan Ave.
Chicago, Ill
Walking south on Michigan Ave. I heard a woman say, "Oh, my. I think I'm going to get sick." Then another woman say, "Disgusting." People in front of me were gawking to my left. Turning, I see two young ladies, dressed in bride dresses being photographed on the median in the center of Michigan Ave. If it was a show it was an impressive one as they kissed, they dipped and they held each other close. Passersby stopped and stared, cars stopped as drivers and passengers alike stared or got out their picture phones and the onlookers on the sidewalks pulled out their cameras. It was one of the most interesting random events I've ever seen, not because of the photo shoot, but how everyone reacted to it, only in Chicago.

ok this is it for a while, folks. we're leaving for vacation very early tomorrow morning, but i'm saying farewell to flickr tonight so i can pack and get ready for two weeks in maine -- wooot! we'll be in portland for a week with old friends, then a pitstop at llbean, then a week just with the hubs in a cottage on the coast, with some books, some wine and the ocean.
so i'll leave you with some lines on the asphalt and some lines from the boss:
hey what else can we do now
except roll down the window
and let the wind blow back your hair
well the night's busting open
these two lanes will take us anywhere
we got one last chance to make it real
to trade in these wings on some wheels
climb in back
heaven's waiting on down the tracks
oh oh come take my hand
riding out tonight to case the promised land
oh oh thunder road, oh thunder road
oh thunder road
lying out there like a killer in the sun
hey i know it's late we can make it if we run
oh thunder road, sit tight take hold
thunder road
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
To, Too, Two...

This image is a grid of various blends of the numeral 2 that I created on my way to the final, Too Many Twos, which you can see here:
www.flickr.com/photos/qthomasbower/3563416561/
Each is a processed blend of some of the most "interesting" numerals 2 on flickr, composed with some of the best images of the number 2 in modern art, composed with images from the Visual Mashups pool that, while entirely abstract, had the same basic form as the number 2.

Congratulations to the Visual Mashups group!

Two finely turned out deckers waiting for their departure time at Kings Lynn bus station,both working on route One.
The nearer bus an East Lancs Myllenium still looks like a newish bus, while the Enviro 400 behind has the sleek modern look which makes this one of my favourite new bus types.

The International Finance Centre (abbr. IFC, branded as "ifc") is an integrated commercial development on the waterfront of Hong Kong's Central District.
A prominent landmark on Hong Kong Island, IFC consists of two skyscrapers, the IFC Mall, and the 55-story Four Seasons Hotel Hong Kong. Tower 2 is the second tallest building in Hong Kong, behind the International Commerce Centre in West Kowloon. It is the fourth-tallest building in the Greater China region and the eighth-tallest office building in the world, based on structural heights; by roof height, only the Taipei 101, Shanghai World Financial Center, Willis Tower, International Commerce Centre and Burj Khalifa exceed it. It is of similar height to the former World Trade Center. The Airport Express Hong Kong Station is directly beneath it.
Two International Finance Centre, completed in 2003, is attached to the second phase of the ifc mall. This 415-metre-tall building, currently Hong Kong's second tallest, is quoted as having 88 storeys and 22 high-ceiling trading floors to qualify as being extremely auspicious in Chinese culture. It is, however, short of the magic number, due to the fact that "taboo floors" like 14th and 24th are omitted as being inauspicious – 14 sounds like "definitely fatal" and 24 like "easily fatal" in Cantonese.
