Captured with the Rodenstock 40mm/4.0 HR Digaron-W lens (@ f/5.6), Phase One IQ4-150 digital back (@ ISO 50), Cambo 1200 camera (shifted vertically -8mm).
Opened as the London headquarters for the Michelin Tyre Co in 1911, and now a mixed commercial building, the Art Nouveau Michelin House features whimsical tire-themed ornaments and stained glass windows with the original Michelin Man "Bibendum" character in various, generally terrifying, poses.

I wish I had had more time to photograph this delightfully weird building, but I only had an hour or so before I had to leave for the airport that day. The hard morning light only illuminated this one angle reasonably acceptably.

@mattblaze I lived further down fulham road for one year. I used to bike quite frequently in front of that building, which is amazing, every single detail is awesome, from tiles to stained glass !

@Bromind They really don't make them like that any more. And the original Michelin Man was *terrifying*.

I am finding hope in Zohran Mamdani's candidacy and likely victory in the New York mayoral race.
I need to remind myself that one person cannot fix everything. Leaders like Mamdani, Ocasio Cortez, Warren and Sanders give me hope, but their wins are not enough to fix everything, and their losses are not enough to end everything.

@therisingtithes.bsky.social there's a Writing Month website that someone here (they're on the fediverse, but I don't remember their name) stood up when the AI nonsense was announced. Not sure "Writing Month" really sings like the old name, though. NaNoWriMo was fun to say. https://writingmonth.org/

@oblomov I'd check if the same happens here but...
If I follow the link I get 404 Not Found.
If I open it via the instance it says that it cannot find it.
