Love the Ford picture over the map background, Mac. Very well done! Here  are a few pics of some of the antique vehicle collection on display at the Edison Estate in Ft Myers FL.

But I had to settle for a 1955 Buick Special instead...

Totally love the second shot Raven.  I take it that it's not factory.  Ford made them well but not that fancy.

In the transportation theme, here are a few.shots that I got at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, back in January of 2011.

First, some really old transportation; and Eastern model stage coach from the 1880's.  You can tell that it's the Eastern model from the seats on top and the luggage boot that is not covered with leather.  In the area of the US east of the Mississippi, particularly in areas not yet served by railroads, this was the 19th Century equivalent of a Greyhound Bus.

256

Next, an 1896 model Benz (3hp).  This is the model before the one named after Mr. Benz's daughter Mercedes.

256

Last, a 1914 Model T Ford.

Great photos TTGA.  I have seen a picture of the first one at the top before. A bit more fancy than the ones that ran in the West. Not so sure I would like to ride on the top of that Eastern coach. jrSmiley_44_smiley_image.gif

Your vintage street photo looks so much like what York Street in Hamilton, Ontario, looked like when I was a kid. Those 3-story storefronts are exactly like my grandfather's dry goods cap and work clothes store, with living quarters above where I lived for the first year of my life, after which my father bought our first home for $3000. My father's first factory was also located on the same block as my grandfather's store.  Memories.

Was 85 degrees here in the Inland Empire of So Calif. And tomorrow will be 84 degrees. Then back down into the chilly 70's starting on Saturday and Sunday, and the upper 60's most all next week. 

The warm sunny weather will set record high temps for this time of the year here in So Calif.  The warm sunny weather felt so good for a change. Had to dig out my shorts and tank tops, then back to the long pants and sweaters for the weekend.

Really beautiful landscape. It must have taken many, many years of hard work terrace all those hills and plant all the vegetation. And very worthwhile.

We have some areas here in So Calif that are terraced for growing fruit trees. They have been there for many years, and more are added every so often for new planting, while some of the older areas are allowed to rest and rejuvenate the soil.

Thank you for sharing such a awesome photo.

Totally agree. As long as the landscaping is done is a way to preserve the environment and ecosystem that will keep the land fertile it is a very sensible and productive way to farm.

7.2  Raven Wing  replied to  evilone @7    4 years ago

It looks like it could be a sunrise as you suggest, or seeing a sunset. The soft blending of the colors of the sky against the medium of the sea, and falling into the starkness of the rocks and the waves crashing on them and the subtle reflection of the run against the white waves, and the lone person in the red coat, gives the picture an almost 3-D appearance.

At least that is how I see it. Very beautiful.

Can't blame you for that, JaneDoe. I do not hate them, as some of them are really helpful to our environment, even the poisonous ones. But, snakes are not my favorite encounter. Anytime, anywhere. 

The one in your photo really looks line a nasty one. Living for most of my youth in many Southern states I got to know about a lot of different snakes. Most I met we agreed to respect each others space.

Thank you Perrie.

I use use different techniques to blend together various images into what my mind sees. I use Microsoft PowerPoint's many functions and features and CorelDraw to create the images I want to use, or to edit, and then put them all together. Then add them to a background that will enhance or contract with the images. For the last, I add the framing. I try to express various types of Native American traditions and artwork.

It is a labor of love and fun.

Take a look at these ice-covered houses viewers have spotted at Hoover Beach, Hamburg, NY! The strong winds felt across western New York on Thursday resulted in the waters of Lake Erie blowing ashore, encasing parts of the land in ice.

These houses are some of the more noticeable examples of these feats of nature.

Hello to old friends 

I have not been on NT for quite a while and just thought I would check things out a bit

256 256 256

I recently visited NYC and found that you can view art without going to museums, simply by wandering around the subway system and checking out the different stations.

I apologize for photo quality as there was changing and uncertain lighting and a lot of crowd jostling going on but I love these and definitely will continue my art course the next time I am in NYC

What a great street mural. I have seen a good many really great and inspirational street murals just driving around LA. Some like to refer to it as graffiti, but, that is really an insult to the fine artistry of the artwork by those who are either bigots, or have no eye for artwork compared to graffiti.

Thank you for sharing the fine artwork with us.

Hello my good Friend! Good to see you here with us again. There are a lot of things to see and hear around the subway stations in NYC. Thank you for sharing these subway artwork photos with us.

Perrie

Nice to chat with you again as well -- as you might imagine life goes on, the good and the bad come to everyone and the quality and happiness of our lives is how we deal with both - all things considered life is good and I hope the same is true for you and yours.

I thought that only Russia posted art in their subway stations - this is good to see, because it certainly is a lot classier than graffiti.

There is something like these to see in nearly every station - we also saw some fantastic art in different boroughs that technically was graffiti I guess but it was done as part of neighborhood projects and restorations and was actually beloved by all who lived there and the tourists as well.

When I was in Mexico there was a lot of 'graffiti'. It was on the sides of buildings, walls, etc. A lot of it was quite good and I didn't see any attempts at painting over any of it.

A while ago I posted a photo-article of graffiti created by the students of the Sichuan Institute of Fine Art that was quite fantastic.

Many thanks to you, Mac, for providing this group so that we can share our various photos and artwork with the NT Members who appreciate a peaceful place to come and sit back and just enjoy the beautiful scenery.
