Lorraine Healy:

“The images were all taken with a Holga or a Diana camera in the Palouse area of Eastern WA in the summer of 2010, at harvest time.”

A great feel for light and space.

Renzo Piano, the architect:

"A green roof, landscaped with native plant species, unifies the different functions. It undulates to accommodate the Academy’s major components: the new planetarium, the Rainforest Exhibit and the Steinhart Aquarium entrance. In the center of this "Living Roof" a glazed skylight covers the Piazza, while other smaller skylights allow natural light into the exhibit space and provide natural ventilation."

New in 2008. If in San Francisco, not to be missed. Some great shots of the roof from a camera on a kite.

NASA:

"Rising on twin columns of fire and creating rolling clouds of smoke and steam, space shuttle Discovery lifts off Launch Pad 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on a picturesque, warm, late February afternoon. Launch of the STS-133 mission was at 4:53 p.m. EST on Feb. 24. 2011."

135 missions sent. A look back at the program.

Design began in 1987. Building opened in 2003. One of Gehry’s finest. Good review from Christopher Hawthorne.

Eric Fischer:

"Blue points on the map are pictures taken by locals (people who have taken pictures in this city dated over a range of a month or more).

"Red points are pictures taken by tourists (people who seem to be a local of a different city and who took pictures in this city for less than a month).

"Yellow points are pictures where it can’t be determined whether or not the photographer was a tourist (because they haven’t taken pictures anywhere for over a month). They are probably tourists but might just not post many pictures at all."

Data as art. Just the right balance. More cities here.

One of a kind Minneapolis museum set amid charred ruins. Jason Kottke tells a great story about how he stumbled upon it.

Giuseppe Randazzo:

"I love the work by Richard Long, the way he fills lonely landscapes with arcaic stones patterns. My version is a poor and lazy version of that eroic approach.. The virtual stones created by several fractal subdivision strategies, find their proper position within the circle, with a trial and error hierarchical algorythm. A mix of attractors and scalar fields (some with Perlin noise) drives the density and size of the stones. The code is a C++ console application that outputs a OBJ 3d file."

Remarkable however done. (via John Pavlus)
