This sweet mural by Nick Sweetman, is an awareness tribute,
… to some of the most important pollinators on our planet.
The mural turns 3 corners. I will do my best to show it left to right. The above shot was taken from across the street. Cars, vans, trucks and busses dominated 19 of the 20 shots I took.
I used pano for this. It captures the zig-zag of the 3 walls.
I did a sideways pano for the above pic.
Spring is 4 weeks away!
The car wasn’t much of a problem,
.. and I grabbed a couple of window reflection shots.
Subism Collective (UK) – This huge mural was painted in 2011 in collaboration with Red Bull by four artists (Deus, N4t4, Philth and Ventsa) from the Derby-based digital creative agency “Subism”. This earth, wind, fire, and water-themed illustration is known as a landmark in the Northern Quarter!
It’s a fabulous mural from Manchester, U.K. Thank you, Alex!

Much to my consternation, my dear blog pal, A Frank Angle, is retiring from the blog world. Good-byes are difficult, so instead, I have decided to induct him into:
Opening this tribute, direct from Holly’s House Of Heart, is Rene Rosso doing her rendition, of renditions, of a song by:
…one of Frank’s fave bands;
Here is one of the many renditions.
Frank has written some very popular posts over his 11 years. One of his most interesting regular articles was “Opinions In The Shorts” aka OITS.
The first time I ever read an OITS, the opening shot was a bunch of shorts on a clothesline. I figured huh, this guy sits around in shorts, writing opinions. Cool!I was wrong; opinions yes, shorts no.Dale, from A Dalectable Lifehas been a lovely, loyal co-host on many of Frank’s posts.
For this special occasion, Dale has cut short her Paris Gown fitting at Art Gowns, to model this OITS outfit I designed. We hope you have an opinion about it!
Frank is from Cincinnati, and is a huge baseball fan.
Direct from Art Towards A Happy Dayis Marina Kanavaki. Marina graciously agreed to model this Cincinnati Reds Art Gown. This and all Art Gowns art here today have been specifically created for Frank.
Music has always been a big thing on Frank’s blog. Most recently Frank has been producing music concerts. However, before that he produced many Theatrical Musicals.
That’s me above, in a pair of tights with Marina’s artwork (Paths of Color) on them. I’m off to the theatre, to see one of Frank’s productions. As a matter of fact, the post was titled “Off to the Theatre in Paths of Color”. If you click on the pic you can read the post!
Frank, here’s Rene Rosso with another song for you!
To all reading: Frank’s last 3 posts are scheduled for: January 28, January 30, February 1 & February 2. Click on the pic below, to check out the first of the last.
Now, here’s Rene Rosso with her special choice of song for you. As always, with RR, the Torchier, the better.
Eye will miss you.
Dear Frank,
Time is such a thief. I just found you several years ago and now after a short time, you will not be around. The photo below (also the header, which I tried to filter into looking like one of your cosmic headers) was taken when I was in my 30’s. I dug it up for this post.
Dale, Marina and Holly were all in cahoots with me. They knew what I was up to, and they all approved their outfits.
