Abdirizaq Mohamed Abdi Abdulle, a driver with the Mogadishu Taxi Company drives through the streets of the Somali capital Mogadishu, 01 September 2013. Operating since the end of May of this year in the city's dusty and once again bustling streets and thoroughfares, the MTC's distinctive yellow and purple cars offer customers taxi fares around Mogadishu at competitive rates and in the first 3 months of operations, the company has increased it's fleet of vehicles from an initial 25 to over 100. The company, according to Abdirizaq, also enables employment opportunities for Somalia's youth following two decades of conflict in the Horn of Africa nation that shattered a generation. Now, thanks to the relative peace that has followed the departure of the Al-Qaeda-affiliated extremist group Al Shabaab from the city; an internationally recognised government for the first time in years and thousands of Diaspora Somalis returning home to invest in and rebuild their country, the MTC is one of many new companies establishing itself in the new Mogadishu and offering services that were hitherto impossible to provide.

The illuminated counter was a feature of this bank branch for decades, although it had been cut down a bit from its original size when this picture was taken in 2014. With counters out of fashion in banks nowadays, this counter has since been removed. Happily, a small part of the glasswork has been retained as a wall decoration.

A Somali man carries a large sailfish on his head as he transports it to Mogadishu's fish market in the Xamar Weyne district of the Somali capital, 16 March, 2013. Every morning Mogadishu's fisherman bring their catch ashore upon which it is quickly unloaded and transported to Xamar Weyne's lively and chaotic fish market where it is sold for consumption on the local market and increasingly, for export to other countries. Over the last two decades, instability on land has greatly restricted the development of the country's fishing industry, but now that Somalia is enjoying the longest period of sustained peace in over 20 years, there is large-scale potential and opportunity to harvest the bountiful waters off the Horn of Africa nation, which boasts the longest coastline in Africa.

Bent Sea Rod Bleaching

A colony of the soft coral known as the "bent sea rod" stands bleached on a reef off of Islamorada, Florida. Hard and soft corals are presently bleaching- losing their symbiotic algae – all over the coral reefs of the Florida Keys due to unusually warm ocean temperatures this summer. Months with waters warmer than 85 F have become more frequent in the last several decades compared to a century ago, stressing and in some cases killing corals when temperatures remain high for too long.

A Somali boy jumps between to old fishing boats above Mogadishu's fishing harbour near the fish market in the Somali capital, 16 March, 2013. Every morning Mogadishu's fisherman bring their catch ashore upon which it is quickly unloaded and transported to Xamar Weyne's lively and chaotic fish market where it is sold for consumption on the local market and increasingly, for export to other countries. Over the last two decades, instability on land has greatly restricted the development of the country's fishing industry, but now that Somalia is enjoying the longest period of sustained peace in over 20 years, there is large-scale potential and opportunity to harvest the bountiful waters off the Horn of Africa nation, which boasts the longest coastline in Africa.

Tram 11 “The Boxcar” (4&#x29

Tram 11: “The Boxcar” This cheerful little red 28-seater, built in Philadelphia, U.S.A., served Dunedin for decades and came to Christchurch for restoration in the 1990s. Its seats run the length of the car, rather than face forward with a central aisle as is usual.

Miniscribe 2012 10 MB hard drive

This is the first hard disk I owned that is now a paper weight that I keep on my desk. It's a 10 MB (not GB) Miniscribe model 2012 hard drive from 1983 that couldn't even hold the raw file that this image is made from. One of the four read/write heads has gotten bent out of shape in the decades that it's been sitting around without its cover. That's a typical 16 GB USB flash drive beside it for comparison. I used a couple of white cards as the base and backdrop for this picture then used Photoshop to remove the seam where they meet. It's illuminated by natural light in my kitchen.

Suleiman Mohamed Daras (centre), manager of the Mogadishu Taxi Company discusses fares and routes with a fellow worker at the company's head office in the Somali capital Mogadishu, 01 September 2013. Operating since the end of May of this year in the city's dusty and once again bustling streets and thoroughfares, the MTC's distinctive yellow and purple cars offer customers taxi fares around Mogadishu at competitive rates and in the first 3 months of operations, the company has increased it's fleet of vehicles from an initial 25 to over 100. The company, according to one of it's drivers, also enables employment opportunities for Somalia's youth following two decades of conflict in the Horn of Africa nation that shattered a generation. Now, thanks to the relative peace that has followed the departure of the Al-Qaeda-affiliated extremist group Al Shabaab from the city; an internationally recognised government for the first time in years and thousands of Diaspora Somalis returning home to invest in and rebuild their country, the MTC is one of many new companies establishing itself in the new Mogadishu and offering services that were hitherto impossible to provide.
