After wrestling with these photos for hours on my computer, I remembered that the monitor was set in the "low blue light" mode. Yes, it helps eyes but suffocates photos.
Green Street, Champaign IL
Barney was hoping I was about to pull a dog treat out from my coat pocket! I always mean to buy - & then switch over to using - a proper treat pouch thingy, to carry the dogs' snacks with me on walks but somehow I never do & as a result all my pockets seem to permanently have dog treats in them. My coats, light jackets, hoodies, jeans... Both collies perk up whenever my hand drifts near my pocket because they just assume I'm reaching for a tasty snack!
Barney did get a teeny tiny treat off me when I took this snapshot of him (who could say "no" to that face?!)... but sadly we're having to make some adjustments with his care at the moment & that means fewer snacks are being handed out. Around mid-month, I decided to take a urine sample up to the vet because... well, I just felt something was slightly "off" with Barney - nothing major had cropped up. Over the past year, whenever Barney's been "under the weather", it's been because he has a urinary tract infection, hence me deciding to get a urine sample. I honestly expected to be told it was clear, he was fine & I was fretting unnecessarily, or at worst, that yes, I should come pick up more antibiotics for a UTI.
It turned out Barney didn't have an infection but his urine was too dilute & there was blood & protein present. He had a blood test the following day & the vet rang the morning after & confirmed poor old Barney now has chronic kidney disease :( Given his age, it isn't surprising but at the same time... I wasn't expecting this news when I took the sample up 2 days earlier, so it's come as a shock. I do think we caught it reasonably early - the vet said his results weren't too bad. Barney's now been switched to a specialist renal diet... which is why I am now having to cut out biscuits & other snacks as much as possible. Apparently, the occasional special treat is OK but the food works best if it's pretty much the only thing they eat. Luckily, Barney does appear to love the new kibble! I'll have to start putting some of that in my pockets, I suppose. Anyway, we're taking Barney back for another check-up in a month, so fingers crossed he'll be doing alright then. Obviously, there's no cure for chronic kidney disease... but hopefully we can manage his condition & keep the old boy happy & comfortable for as long as possible

In our household our hearts are turning towards Christmas and the greatest story ever told. My younger sister is a talented singer/songwriter and on her latest album (a Christmas album - check it out on iTunes: apple.co/21GQ524) she shared a song she wrote by the name "Luke Chapter 2". I had that song in mind when I thought of the concept of this image. The Bible opened to Luke Chapter 2 and the story of the birth of Jesus with the lights of Christmas blazing in bokeh beyond. I tried a few different approaches, but settle on this SMC Takumar 50mm f/1.4 lens with a single Metz 64 AF-1 flash and a Lite Genius Super Scoop II defuser a ways behind the camera so that the light would be soft by the time it hit the bright white pages of the Bible. The end result is pretty cool, I think, and is almost straight out of camera.

Thank you to everyone who pauses long enough to look at my photo. Any comments or Faves are very much appreciated
So it's been about a week, and I guess I'll do weekly updates till this dude is finished, (seeing as he's my biggest fig 'project' yet). Haven't finished the helmet yet, but I've started on the pants and painted the pauldron. All that's left are the sandals, pants, helmets, and weapons!
Few days ago had reliased the third episode of Life is Strange 2. I really love this game and decided to build a little scene from it.
Two YaHP-2s of the 2nd Airborne Rifle Battalion, in General Combat Livery. Two crewmen discuss Fusouese trading card games. Famed for their cramped conditions (especially for any infantry who happen to want to tag along inside the vehicle's miniscule infantry-carrying compartment), they are nonetheless loved by their crews.
With the need for a highly mobile and light vehicle for their airborne operations, Khakassia would purchase production rights for the Papri-22 Strijelac, renaming it to the Papri-23Kh. It would prove highly useful with its very mobile frame and small stature, but would lack in the department of weaponry. Although capable of using turret-mounted ATGMs, it was only capable of internally mounting a 7.62mm heavy machinegun, so another vehicle was sought out.
Luckily, a fledgeling production firm at the growing city of Zamchurnyy would have just the vehicle to complement the Papri-23Kh: the ЯХП-2. Standing just barely taller than the average Khakas man
(which isn't very tall), and only 17'5" long, it is one of the smallest tracked vehicles to enter production into any modern military force. However, what it lacks it makes up for in firepower, which is highly important for any airborne vehicular operations. The turret was taken from old early-variant Transnistrian lend-lease BMP-2s from when the former Grodiron/Yiddeian nation had been an active member of the YSSR. It would see its most active service within the air wings of the Yiddeian armed forces, with its small size allowing it to traverse over terrain many other nations simply couldn't; a necessary factor in the highly mountainous terrain of Khakassia where modern IFVs oft find themselves stuck, and nigh-impassable by modern main battle tanks. It features amphibious abilities, necessary in the vast stretches of undeveloped land within and around Khakassia, with one of the April exercises actually taking place in a meltwater lake upon a glacier in the Geghya Range.
Thanks to Ian for inspiration, I really did like making this. Definitely the cutest thing I've made yet.

Canadian Pacific SD40-2 No. 6055 works a ballast train at Yahk, British Columbia on May 5, 2018. No. 6055 was built in December 1984 and was among the last SD40-2s ever purchased by the CP. Today, the locomotive is still sporting its mutlimark and is one of only a handful of SD40-2s still working on CP.

Scanning catchup finally completed. Negatives have been gathering dust! North Yorkshire as seen by my Soviet 1950's Moskva 2 folding medium format camera monstrosity. Negs are 6x9cm scanned using xsane software in Linux. Involved DIY kitchen sink witchcraft developing shenanigans. Used Czech Fomapan B&W 100 film developed in exhausted chemicals! These are unedited scans as from 2480 Epson Scanner. Not bad for a beat up 1950's worn out camera. Will get them off my doorstop computer asap to a mobile android device for some proper editing as snapseed is for me really the only proper photo editor of any use nowadays. Everything else is so complicated!
143 932-2 fährt mit ihrer S9 nach Eilenburg am Wärterstellwerk von Krensitz vorbei. Viel befahren ist die Straße, am neben dem Stellwerk liegenden Bü nicht. Jedoch und das ist das schöne an unserem Hobby kommt manchmal alles zusammen was nur zusammen kommen kann. Die Chance, dass der Müllwagen genau zur Zeit der S9 angefahren kommt ist wahrscheinlich schon nicht hoch, aber das der Fahrer dann die Haltelinie einfach mal 10m Überfährt und sein Vieh mitten auf der Kreuzung vor dem Bü abparkt hat mich schon leicht eskalieren lassen. Die Krönung war noch, dass der Fahrer halt ganz entspannt seine Bockwurst aus der Frühstücksbox holt und sich im Gesicht herumspielte....
