This is John, my stranger #39. He is an avid photographer and spends hours and hours shooting bird, butterflies, drogonflies, including bald eagles, red tailed hawks, damsel flies. I met John this morning at of all places, St Johns Conservation area. He's shooting a Canon 6D with a 70-200 IS F2.8 zoom and a 1.4X extender. Thanks John, it was my pleasure.

Day 39. Reminiscing.
A bit more classic portrait today. Do kinda like my hair on this one, I got rid of my curls for one day. =)
Strobist info: SB-24 in shoot-through umbrella at camera left.
We had a beautiful walk around Derwent Water today. We'd planned to walk right round the lake if possible, but knew it would probably be pretty flooded at the far end - it was, so we took a detour off up to Ashness Bridge instead, and ate lunch at a high viewpoint there - then doubled back on ourselves. We had loads of rain and hail, but a few breaks in the weather, too - and we were well prepared for all the sogginess. It was still incredibly beautiful, regardless of the weather.
I had a bath this afternoon and Tim popped out to get a few bits of shopping - then he cooked us meatballs and pasta for dinner. Delicious! We are both absolutely knackered, but in a good way, and now settling down to watch the new X-Files. So relaxed! :)

This bus is one of 20 2023 IC CE’s the district is in the process of getting. This was the first of the 16 buses that have been delivered to receive a number. This bus replaced a 2001 International Conventional that was once in the fleet
I was playing a dep gig for the Jake leg Jug Band in Swindon - Duncan, the main man behind the group is also a Port Vale fan so we though it'd be good to take in the Swindon vs Port Vale game which coincidentally was taking place on the same day. Then Sky Sports re-arranged it to a 12.30 kick off, which meant an early start and a five hour wait between the end of the game and setting up for the gig. The game was an entertaining 3-3 draw and the gig went well - in between, we hung out in a restaurant for ages...

German Feldwebel (Sergeant) Panzer Crewman passing an 8,8cm Panzergranate 39 through the escape hatch of a Tiger. (Eastern Front, date unknown)
The 'Panzergranate 39' was one of the most common German armor-piercing rounds of World War 2. The round is an "APCBC-HE-T" (Armor-Piercing-Capped Ballistic-Cap, High Explosive, Tracer) design meaning it had a ballistic-cap tip to improve aerodynamics, hardened-steel projectile with a soft iron cap to help with sloped armour penetration, a small explosive charge and a tracer fuse in the base. The round had a muzzle velocity of 780 metres per second and was capable of penetrating up to 110mm of armour at 1000 metres. "FES" rounds were introduced from 1943 on wards, these rounds had the 'driving bands' made of "Feuereisensinter" (FES) or 'sintered iron' instead of copper due to resource shortages. The driving bands provide the tight seal of the projectile within the barrel rifling, switching to steel bands increased the wear of the gun barrels and required barrels to be changed more often.

This mural is on the side of an upper floor of a building. I assume it was painted from the roof of the lower building next to it. I think it’s pretty - but a shame it isn’t in a more prominent place, as it’s easy to walk past without noticing it.
