A series of images from a walk up and over Helvellyn, via Keppel Cove in the English Lake District on a lovely late spring day in 2022.

This little lake is hidden away under the shadows of the Ox Mountains. I was never there before but it was a nice surprise to discover it!

During my trip to Portland last weekend, a few of the local photographers took me up to one of their favorite spots, Zig Zag Falls. As a California native, who hasn't been to the Pacific Northwest sinceI was a kid, I can honestly say I immediately fell in love with the greenery and the stunning fall colors.

Here's my latest no-bangs Francie in her first outfit;- Zig-Zag-Zoom from 1971/72. I just decided to photograph her as she is displayed in the Barbie Family House with the others, though the lighting in my dolly room is not the best. I may do a more 'studio-style' shot of her wearing this soon. A blonde no-bangs actually wore it in the 1971 fashion booklet and dealer's catalogues for 1971 and 1972 (pictured at top left,) but I decided to leave the hat off to show off that glorious platinum blonde flip!

Lloyd's Building - Lloyd's of London
UPDATE SEP 2011 - #29 on Explore for 19.09.2011 - thank you very much everybody! :-)
Over the weekend I took a visit to the Open House London event and was so glad I did. I've always wanted to go into this building everytime I pass it and on Saturday morning I had that opportunity :-). I only had to que about 25 minutes and once in I was expecting expansive floors and a high atrium which I did get but what I wasn't expecting was how close the office desks were crammed together (you can just see them in the photo above). It must also get very noisy in here as there are just desks and desks everywhere but it is such an awesome building, a highlight from the weekend.

Information
The Lloyd's building (also sometimes known as the Inside-Out Building) is the home of the insurance institution Lloyd's of London, and is located at 1, Lime Street, in the City of London, England.
It was designed by architect Richard Rogers and built between 1978 and 1986. Bovis was the management contractor for the scheme. Like the Pompidou Centre (designed by Renzo Piano and Rogers), the building was innovative in having its services such as staircases, lifts, electrical power conduits and water pipes on the outside, leaving an uncluttered space inside. The twelve glass lifts were the first of their kind in the UK. It is important to note that (like the Pompidou Centre) this building was highly influenced by the work of Archigram in the 1950s and 1960s (see Plug-in City by Archigram for an example).
The building consists of three main towers and three service towers around a central, rectangular space. Its focal point is the large Underwriting Room on the ground floor, which houses the famous Lutine Bell. The Underwriting Room (often simply known as the Room) is overlooked by galleries, forming a 60 metres (197 ft) high atrium lit naturally through a huge barrel-vaulted glass roof. The first four galleries open onto the atrium space, and are connected by escalators through the middle of the structure. The higher floors are glassed-in, and can only be reached via the outside lifts.
The 11th floor houses the Committee Room, an 18th century dining-room designed for the 2nd Earl of Shelburne by Robert Adam in 1763; it was transferred piece-by-piece from the previous (1958) Lloyd's building across the road.
The first Lloyd's building (at 12 Leadenhall Street) was built on this site in 1928. In 1958, due to expansion, a new building was constructed across the road at 51 Lime Street. In 1978, again due to the prospect of overcrowding, Lloyd's commissioned Richard Rogers to redevelop the site and the original 1928 building was demolished to make way for the present one which was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in 1986. However, its entrance at 12 Leadenhall Street was preserved, and forms a rather incongruous attachment to the 1986 structure. Demolition of the 1958 building commenced in 2004 to make way for the Willis Building, a new 26-storey tower and ten-storey building.
The Lloyd's building is 88 metres (289 ft) to the roof, with 14 floors. On top of each service core stand the cleaning cranes pushing the height to 95.10 metres (312 ft). Modular in plan, each floor can be altered with the addition or removal of partitions and walls.
In 2008, The Twentieth Century Society called for the building to be Grade I listed.
The building is owned by Dublin-based real estate firm Shelbourne Development, who purchased the building in 2004 from a German investment bank.

Hello everyone!
I'm off to India for a much needed 2 week holiday. See you all when I get back! I'm taking 3 cameras with me and, hopefully, I will have some nice shots for you when I return.
