A very simple study of the setting super moon on April, 8th, 2020. Like the soft color-gradient at the western horizon. Luna was with a distance of only 357.035 km kilometers on its nearest distance to earth within the next five years.

Control the angle, value the distance, find the right spot. Then you will see the squared face of a rounded dome...
Il signore delle cupole
Controlla l'angolo, valuta la distanza, trova il punto esatto. Poi vedrai la faccia quadrata di una cupola rotonda...
Le maître de dôme
Contrôlez l'angle, évaluez la distance, trouvez le bon endroit. Ensuite, vous verrez la face carrée d'un dôme arrondi ...

Value the person you love now.
Tomorrow, when you send a message, she may not be online anymore and it will hurt not to see her typing ...
You will comment "nostalgia" on the old photos, and she will not be there to answer;
You're going to knock on the door and she may not be able to open it;
You will want to call again to hear that voice and she will not be able to answer ...
Life is mysterious and full of "maybe", so be sure to show your feelings tomorrow; tell the person you love how important she is, maybe she just has to listen to you tonight.
The Shiva Vishnu Temple of South Florida is a non-profit religious organization with a mission of operating a traditional Hindu temple based on Vaasthu and Agama Shaastra and imparting religious, educational, and cultural values to our community and future generations. In 1996 we embarked upon building a traditional Dravidian (South Indian) style temple under the guidance of chief architect, Dr. Ganapati Sthapati of Chennai, India, a well-known temple builder of international repute. The construction began in April 1999. Twelve shilpis (sculptors) came from Mahabalipuram, Tamilnadu, India in April 2000 and carried out the Indianization of the temple.
The main temple building has two Raja Gopurams (entrance towers) and two Vimana Gopurams (Towers) over each of the main Shiva and Vishnu Garbagrahas (Shrines). The total area of the temple is approximately 6200 sq ft. The temple ornaments and architectural style are of Chola, and Pandya dynasty (10th century) for Shiva and Parivar (associated) shrines, and Vijayanagara dynasty (12th century) for Venkateshwara and Parivar shrines. The Ayyappa shrine is built according to the Kerala style of architecture. The second building is the community hall which opened in April of 2001. It houses educational and cultural activities and is occasionally rented for private ceremonies to Temple members and devotees.
Mahakumbhabhishekam (sacred purification) and Pranaprathishtapana (consecration) of our temple were celebrated from November 23 to 25 of 2001 and the temple has been open to the public since then. We have four well-trained priests from India who perform daily puja services. The temple’s religious rituals strictly follow the Agama Shastras: Shiva agama for Shiva and Parivar devathas, Pancharathra agama for Vishnu and parivara devathas.
The temple organizes a number of religious services and celebrates major Hindu festivals throughout the year, which are open to the general public. Devotees have the pportunity to sponsor any of these religious services. The temple priests can also conduct specific religious services on behalf of devotees either at the temple or in their homes.
The construction of the temple was made possible with generous contributions from the members of our community. The temple is operated by revenues generated from services and donations. Your generous donation is always welcome
and is tax-deductible.

Former Value Giant Drug and Discount Store located at 2558 Mission St. in San Francisco,CA. The building which is now quite neglected reused the letters to rename the store Giant Value. When I took this photo it seemed as if the store might have closed, but I cannot confirm any such closure. This store is arguably an institution on Mission Street showing up on many photos I have come across...

My biggest wish is to finish my ekhem.."me verse".. 4 versions of the justice societies but that'll take ages. But who knows maybe one day I'll be able to afford all the parts.
I generally take a photo and then do my value sketch. If time I do a color sketch but most time I just paint. Really I don't care so much about local color because I will do my own thing from the value study. It works for me.
[...] The whole value of solitude depends upon one's self; it may be a sanctuary or a prison, a haven of repose or a place of punishment, a heaven or a hell, as we ourselves make it [...]

One of the iconic images of Bangkok (and one of the most iconic scams) is Thailand's pervasive tuk-tuk (named because of the sound of their small engine). These are motorized rickshaws that serve as an alternative to taxis. They are popular amongst tourists for their novelty value, but that is exactly what they are a novelty. When in Bangkok I would recommend taking taxis for their safety, ease of use, to avoid one of the classic Bangkok scams and to preserve your precious lungs.
First, as you can see from the photo, tuk-tuks have an “open-air” design so they offer no protection in case of an accident. In addition, Thais are very small people and the tuk-tuks reflect that. I am six feet tall and I look like the Hunchback of Notre Dame when I ride in the back of one of these!
Second, tuk-tuks have no meter and the moment you open your mouth and speak English the fare doubles or triples compared to what an equivalent taxi fare would be. All taxis in Bangkok are metered, but some drivers will tell unsuspecting tourists that the meter is broken. If that happens simply walk away and look for another taxi. More times than not the driver will tell you to come back because by some great miracle the meter has started to work! Never step into a tuk-tuk unless you have successfully bargained a fair price otherwise you will be taken for a ride (physically and fiscally).
Third, one of the classic Bangkok scams is that a very friendly Thai will approach you on the street and produce a Bangkok map to help you with your sightseeing day. Your new “friend” will tell you that some of the popular sites are closed for the day, like the Royal Palace, because it is a national holiday. For a small price, usually 20 Baht (about $.65 cents USD), he can have his friend, who conveniently pulls up to the curb in his tuk-tuk, take you around to less touristy sites. The “tour” will take you to some temples, but also to a tourist agency (posing as the official tourist office) where they will try to sell you overpriced train and bus tickets. The finale is a trip to the local tailor where you have the opportunity to buy a customized suit. You gotta look stylish while in the Bangkok, right? Fortunately, I didn’t fall for this scam as I was well aware of it, but I met many travelers who succumbed to the “inexpensive” tuk-tuk tour.
Lastly, the “alfresco” tuk-tuks expose passengers to the high levels of pollution, besides, the heat and humidity that Bangkok is known for. Bangkok taxis are air-conditioned and compared to taxis I have taken New York City and Chicago, are well kept.
When in Bangkok be sure visit the “must see” attractions such as Wat Arun, the enormous reclining Buddha and the Royal Palace. If you are feeling a little adventurous then hop on a local tuk-tuk for that essential Bangkok experience, just be sure to bargain hard and hold on for dear life!
Check back for more of my Thailand adventures!
Happy Travels!

Derby 'Lightweight' DMU makes a stop at Sellafield in June 1964.
It would seem this is almost certainly a railtour or charter given the number of people milling around.
There is no mention on the SixBellsJuction site but perhaps this is not surprising. An era when all sorts of organisations were organising trips.
