I originally processed and subsequently posted this image back in 2020, just after I took it. But visiting it again while busy moving files to a new PC, I was struck that I had not captured the feel of the scene as I remember it. It was too light and the original version as presented by the SOOC JPEG file was much more like what I wanted now. Therefore, I processed it again from the JPEG file as opposed to the RAWTherapee version from 2020. I like this much better. The original text from 2020 follows:
I was awakened very early this morning, well before dawn, by a loud noise. Could not get back to sleep so I decided to head out for a pre-dawn wander through downtown Grimsby, Ontario. As the dawn Blue Hour set in, I was on Ontario Street and noticed a small illuminated doorbell button on the frame at number 2A. I decided to emphasize the blue by forcing the camera white balance to incandescent light and got this. - JW

Cessna O-2A Skymaster.
Intro:
The Cessna O-2 Skymaster (nicknamed "Oscar Deuce") is a military version of the Cessna 337 Super Skymaster, used for forward air control (FAC) and psychological operations (PSYOPS) by the US military between 1967 and 2010.
About this creation:
I have a weak spot for odd looking aircrafts, so the Cessna 337 Skymaster with its push-pull engine configuration and twin tail-booms, has always had my interest as a model subject. I wanted it to fit my other range of aircrafts so it`s build to 1:40 scale. Major challenges for this model was: the main-wing shape and the propeller. The main wing shape is done by use of hinges inside the wing. Most of the wedge gap is covered by 1x2 tiles. I found no suitable 2 blade propeller, 7 stud dia. , in LEGOs range of propellers. For my civil Cessna 337 Super Skymaster, I made a brick-built one, just to see if it was possible, and I`m actually quite pleased with the result. For this one I have modified a 9 stud dia. two blade propeller into a 7 stud diameter. I`ve added a self-adhesive printed template onto each propeller blade and sanded off the excessive area. With this modified propeller I was also able to add a spinner.
About the Skymaster:
Crew: 1/2
Powerplant: two 157kw (210hp) Continental IO-360-GB flat-six piston engines.
Performance: max speed 336 km/h (206mph); range 2288km (1422 miles); service ceiling 5485m (18.000ft)
Dimensions: wingspan 11.63m (38ft 2in); length 9.07m (29ft 9in); height 2.79m (9ft 2in)
Weight: 2100kg (4630lb) maximum take-off weight

Sentinel-2A fully integrated at IABG’s facilities in Ottobrunn, Germany on 24 February 2015, before being packed up and shipped to French Guiana for launch.
Offering ‘colour vision’ for Europe’s environmental monitoring Copernicus programme, Sentinel-2A combines high-resolution and novel multispectral capabilities – a first for ESA. With a 290 km-wide coverage path and frequent revisits, Sentinel-2 will deliver views of Earth’s changing lands in unprecedented detail and accuracy.
Information from this latest mission will help to improve agricultural practices, monitor the world’s forest, detect pollution in lakes and coastal waters, contribute to disaster mapping and much more.
Sentinel-2 will be launched in June on a Vega rocket from the CSG, Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana.
More information available via the article: Last look at Sentinel-2A.

Deserted train station Lelystad-zuid. It's construction never completed. In a sense it died before birth. You won't find it on any timetable, it's not connected, but it can not be removed.
