There's a lot going on here in my part of VA. 25 homes just went up at the end of the street. I may just take a long walk tomorrow.

There is a motorway being built 100 metres from my house - I could probably take pictures from my balcony - but I have something else in mind...

There is a new building going up across the street from my office, but I will not be able to get on the roof over the weekend, so we'll see what happens.

Man I should have tons of shots for this since I work for a company that handles all the benefits for union carpenters here in northern california, but alas, i don't have my camera. No excuse for that. They're working on the building next to ours...turning it into a Harley Davidson shop. There's been painters out there all day, and guys welding iron gates around the building (it's a tad ghetto here, no offense to anyone who lives in oakland though)

OK - here is my first one - tongue in cheek for UK residents as I am sure they will associate the name with what's going on at Wembly Stadium

and, incase you can't read the writing on the banner - here is a 100% crop:

Good one Blokey ... but why do those Aussie tradespersons over here want to be having an extended Barbie every lunchtime I dunno. They need to get some work done.

... is blowing in the wind - which will probably hit us tomorrow...

Shocking, isn't it? Around 400 pics at the zoo today and most of them have that sky in them.

yup - got those - it's a good scheme if you want to visit more than twice a year - so it has paid for itself and any future visits are 'free'

I am not surprised on the sunburn - it was a great day.

OK, next pic - it's messy - I was not too impressed - but, there again, construction sites are kinda messy. It was either this shot - or another crane!

Sometimes a closer crop looks better:

... and, there again, sometimes it doesn't.

Hampshire is suffering under the govts housing plans , new houses are going up on every available piece of land , much to the chagrin of the die hard locals.

the landscape "style on the 30D produces such saturated colours I think they suffer under compression (note around the top of the ladder)

Sunburn in April? I envy you guys! Spring finally arrived, but on Friday it was sunshine, rain, hail, snow, sunshine, rain etc. Schizofrenic weather! Today just crap rain.
