Pentax K-30, Rokinon 8/3.5 Fish eye
For the Pentax Forums single in January challenge
It was a beautiful day, but work kept me late. After walking the dogs, I left the house in desperation for subject matter. I followed the heavenly glow to a local car wash. Couldn't get enough!

Scoops
Derby station pilot on the 10th April 1976 is newly arrived 08303. Also in the photograph can be seen Engine Sidings No2 Signal Box (opened in March 1890) controlling access to “4 shed”, the locomotive works and various sidings in front of the power box and would survive until February 1987. 08303 is attached to a London Midland and Scottish Railway Period III standard 50ft full brake to diagram D2007 and in the background, stabled in Etches Park carriage sidings is a maroon Mark I coach, a rare sight by 1976 although I suspect it is condemned.
Locomotive History
08303 was originally D3373 and is a Derby built locomotive and entered traffic in August 1957, allocated to Newton Heath MPD where it was to remain until transferred to Longsight in July 1968 and Springs Branch in the October 1971. Its final transfer was to Derby in December 1975 and it would be withdrawn from Derby in December 1981. It was finally broken up six years later in April 1987 at Swindon works.
Praktica LTL, Orwochrome UT18
Today we went for a slightly damp walk in Clash Woods, Muir of Ord. A change of scnery and some fresh air was required, but the rapidly deteriorating weather put us off the idea of heading to Glen Garry.
Angus and Roki both had a wonderful time charging about the place!

Esztergom was the capital of Hungary from the 10th till the mid-13th century when King Béla IV of Hungary moved the royal seat to Buda. During the same period, the castle of Esztergom was built on the site of ancient Roman castrum. It served not only as the royal residence until the 1241 (the Mongol invasion), but also as the center of the Hungarian state, religion, and Esztergom county.
After changing his residence to Budapest, Béla IV gave the palace and castle to the archbishop. Following these events, the castle was built and decorated by the bishops. The center of the king’s town, which was surrounded by walls, was still under royal authority. A number of different monasteries did return or settle in the religious center.
Meanwhile, the citizenry had been fighting to maintain and reclaim the rights of towns against the expansion of the church within the royal town. In the chaotic years after the fall of the House of Árpád, Esztergom suffered another calamity: in 1304, the forces of Wenceslaus II, the Czech king occupied and raided the castle. In the years to come, the castle was owned by several individuals: Róbert Károly and then Louis the Great patronized the town.
The Ottoman conquest of Mohács in 1526 brought a decline to the previously flourishing Esztergom as well. In the Battle of Mohács, the archbishop of Esztergom died. In the period between 1526 and 1543, when two rival kings reigned in Hungary, Esztergom was besieged six times. At times it was the forces of Ferdinand I or John Zápolya, at other times the Ottomans attacked. Finally, in 1530, Ferdinand I occupied the castle. He put foreign mercenaries in the castle, and sent the chapter and the bishopric to Nagyszombat and Pozsony.
However, in 1543 Sultan Suleiman I attacked the castle and took it. Esztergom became the centre of an Ottoman sanjak controlling several counties, and also a significant castle on the northwest border of the Ottoman Empire. In the 17th century Esztergom was besieged and conquered several times during the Ottoman-Habsburg Wars. Most of the buildings in the castle and the town that had been built in the Middle Ages were destroyed during this period, and there were only uninhabitable, smothered ruins to welcome the liberators.
In 1761 the bishopric regained control over the castle, where they started the preliminary processes of the reconstruction of the new religious center: the middle of the Várhegy (Castle Hill), the remains of Saint Stephen and Saint Adalbert churches were carried away to provide room for the new cathedral.

50013 Agincourt stands in the sunshine at Waterloo at the head of an express for Exeter, 10th October 1980.
Locomotive History
Originally D413 it was built at the English Electric Vulcan Foundry works and entered traffic, allocated to Western Lines (Crewe) in March 1968 on Crewe – Glasgow West Coast Main Line duties. On the 28th October 1971 413 leading 446 on 1M40, 18:00 Glasgow – Manchester was in collision with the rear of an Up car carrying train at Oxenholme. The leading cab of 413 was extensively damaged with one side of both 413 and 446 also damaged. In May 1974 with the completion of the electrification to Glasgow 50013 was transferred to Bristol for Western Region duties. The Western Region decided to name the class 50 locomotives after Royal Navy Warships and 50013 was named Agincourt on the 19th April 1978, without ceremony, at Laira. 50013 was refurbished at Doncaster works in the summer of 1980 and re-entered traffic on the 7th June 1980. It survived in traffic until withdrawn in March 1988 with fire damage and was broken up by Vic Berry, Leicester in June 1989.
HMS Agincourt was a Dreadnought battleship originally ordered by Brazil. She held the distinction of mounting more heavy guns (fourteen 12inch) and more turrets (seven) than any other dreadnought battleship. This was in keeping with the Brazilian Governments requirement for an especially impressive design however to accommodate the impressive armament the armor protection was sub-standard by contemporary Royal Navy standards. Construction commenced in the Armstrong Whitworth shipyard in 1911 however a warming in relations with the country's chief rival, Argentina, led to the ship's sale while under construction to the Ottoman Empire. The ship was nearly complete when World War I commenced, and British Admiralty fears of a German–Ottoman alliance led to her seizure for use by the Royal Navy. Named HMS Agincourt she joined the Grand Fleet in the North Sea and spent the bulk of her wartime career on patrols and exercises including participating in the Battle of Jutland in 1916 where she fired 144 rounds from her main armament. HMS Agincourt was put into reserve in 1919 and sold for scrap in 1922 to meet the terms of the Washington Naval Treaty.

My H put these fairy lights around the bed at Christmas. I love them so decided to keep them up when I put the rest of the decorations away. They do reflect off my Kindle screen though!
158872 passes through Attenborough with 1Y03, 06:00 Sheffield – Nottingham, 10th May 2011. Northern Rail services between Nottingham and Sheffield/Leeds are normally routed via Mansfield Junction – Radford Junction – Trowell Junction so I was surprised to see this service at Attenborough. Is this the booked route for 1Y03 or has it been diverted this morning Trowell Junction – Toton Centre – Attenborough Junction due to its normal route being unavailable. In the 1980’s the route between Radford Junction and Trowell Junction was proposed for closure and I was responsible for the design of the upgrade of the signalling to passenger standards between Attenborough Junction and Toton Centre to allow the closure to take place. Although the closure happened the infrastructure was only “mothballed” and the route reopened after a couple of years. 158872 was built at Derby works in 1992 and I first saw this unit brand new at Derby on the 30th March 1992. It is one of ten class 158 units (158863—158872). fitted with 400 bhp Cummins engines in lieu of the 350bhp Cummings or Perkins engines fitted to the rest of the class. On entering service it was allocated to Cardiff and remained on Western Region duties around Cardiff and Bristol (latterly allocated to Bristol St Phillips Marsh and operated by First Great Western) until transferred to Neville Hill for Northern Rail duties in 2008.

I was on a mission today to find "7" of something for the photo of the day. I thought it would be nice once a year on the 10th December to find an appropriate number of "things" to photograph.
Been a pretty good day really, just one moment when there was a story about a 7 year old boy in South Wales being killed in a car accident in the early hours of the morning. That was when I decided to mark this day with a photograph that had some meaning.
Happy birthday wee man - hope you like sheep!
