The next addition to the collection, the X-51 Mustang! This was a collaboration with @brick_squadron (instagram) who did the excellent fuselage. I also have to thank Inthert for allowing me to use the mechanism, exhausts, and cannons from his fantastic midi-scale X-wing. From there I used photos to reverse engineer the engines and wings from Jerac's version before modifying them. I will certainly be building this physically with my other planes. Next one to tackle is the Zero!
The 153 peeping under the bridge at Horbury Cutting is hardly modern but when I looked at this scene it appeared unchanged for decades. With the ramshackle wooden fencing and the BR post and wire along with the concrete lighting column with its swan neck spiggot and top entry lantern complete with elongated shield. The Dogbox was working 2L06 Sheffield to Leeds.
The 2023 addition to the fleet of TBD-TP is another Electroputere 060-EA machine that has spent some time in service across the Balkans in the past.
On the photo it is seen with a 30+ rake of coal empties forming freight train 30511 from Golemo Selo to Dimitrovgrad, making a short pause at Svetovrachene to allow the passenger traffic in front to gain some leeway.
In addition to Lego, horsemanship is another of my passions. I've been riding, training, and working with horses for over nine years now, and this little vignette was a Christmas gift for my instructor of six years. But the best part about this little build, of course, is the olive cheese on the base.

John Heinz National Wildlife Refuge is a very large wildlife refuge located in the southwest corner of the City of Philadelphia. It is also partly in the adjoining county (Philadelphia is both a city and a county). It is literally adjacent to the Philadelphia International Airport. It is not uncommon for people on national and/or international connecting flights to take a break to come over to the refuge.
The Dike Trail is probably the most traveled trail at the refuge. It is a gravel and dirt trail that begins at the parking lot and goes out about two miles, where there is a connection that allows visitors to continue around the Impoundment and return to the parking area and Visitor's Center. The entire trip (counter clockwise) back to the parking area is about four miles and can be made in about two hours of leisurely walking. In addition to walking, many people prefer to run or bicycle around this circuit. The Impoundment can be traverse clockwise from the parking lot, by taking the Haul Road and taking all available right turns.
Just before you enter the Dike Trail, there is a landing for launching canoes and kayaks into the Darby Creek. www.flickr.com/photos/alan_jackman/51589039572/in/datepos... Along the Dike trail there is a fishing pier and a second one is under construction, a two level observation deck and a boardwalk, with two gazebos, that extends out into the marsh.
To the right, the Impoundment is a large man-made lake where the water can be raised and lowered by water from or to the Darby Creek (on left side of the Dike Trail, not visible) to take advantage of the wildlife of the season.
The Bridge over the Impoundment is one of the most popular attractions at the refuge. It is about 200 yards long and connects Warbler Woods with the Dike Trail. There are three expanded areas along the bridge, with four benches and a telescope.

Warbler Woods (extreme right), at the eastern end of the bridge, is a great place to see warblers, particularly during spring migration. It is not an accident that many people schedule their work vacation during the month of May.

The Parish Church of Saint Mary & Saint Nicholas
The church of Saint Mary & Saint Nicholas in Spalding was built as a parish church by the priory in approx 1284, originally a cruciform building it has undergone many changes and additions over the centuries.
The market town of Spalding sits in the south Lincolnshire Fens on the river Wellend, it has many fine Georgian buildings, especially along the river bank, this area of south Lincolnshire is famous for its flower bulb industry.
The Fenlands of south-east Lincolnshire, west Norfolk and north Cambridgeshire are rich in medieval ecclesiastical architecture, because of this the area is sometimes referred to as the "Holy Land of the English".
Two Southern Railway SD45s are viewed through the "diesel addition" of the former Interstate Railroad shop in Andover, Va. This scene was filmed on March 28, 1975.
Before getting into the title, let me address the image. In addition to the Finchette on the left side of the feeder, we see here a couple of new additions, not necessarily to the yard but definitely to the camera. So, why not introduce them simultaneously in a sitting pose plainly showing the backside as well as a snazzy flight maneuver by, yes, some of you may have guessed, Pine Siskins. As you can see, they are a pretty colored bird with beaks that are more slender than that of a Finch. We used to have a couple of green ones coming around but no such luck this year yet. One more reason we are looking at this flight shot is that I have encountered some criticism regarding my yard management techniques. I want to make it clear that Levitation is not the only thing happening here, although and perhaps because of my dislike for rules (in spite of my German upbringing – nothing is Verboten here) Levitation is practiced a lot.
The reason I am bringing up the “Counting Flowers on the Wall and Inner Peace” in the title is that I simply neglected to mention a couple of things in my previous exposé on Inner Peace. Not only do I do a lot of bird watching (as you may have realized by now), there are other things such as counting ducks that I previously mentioned. Playing solitaire and watching TV have actually taking a back seat to my taking pictures. Smoking cigarettes is still high on the list. Some of you, however, posted such marvelous flower shots with such vivid colors that I now find myself Counting Flowers On The Wall. These, of course, only exist in my mind but are not any less vivid than the real thing.

Although I like the Statler Brothers (they did the original), this is a much snazzier version with way better sound. Addicted to the toe stomping, hand clapping beat.
A very interesting addition that was brand new into the Lakeside fleet in January 2020 is this Alexander-Dennis, Enviro 400MMC. It was purchased to bring some school contracts to DDA spec away from coaches, also with the additional role of been used for rail replacement. One unexpected use in late July 2020 is use on the commercially operated 449 Ellesmere to Oswestry service, usually the domain of Solos or Solo SRs, thought to be used to help with social distancing capacity on some trips due to covid related regulations currently in play.
Double deckers as a rule are not common with Shropshire operators, certainly not brand new and this is the first double decker to be owned and operated by Lakeside so been purchased brand new is impressive.
our newest addition to the Jones family. we think she's some kind of Hound Dog. some friends of ours found her and 4 other brothers and sisters in a box at the end of a dirt rd. Some people are just heartless. they need a good home! interested?
L&C train 14 has just departed Lancaster and is seen rolling westbound towards Richburg on a misty and rainy morning with a G&O painted GP40-2LW leading the L&C blue high hood GP38AC, and a recently acquired MP15DC. With nearly no two of the same model locomotives on the railroad, the L&C is a haven for oddball mashups of power like this.

Description of Historic Place
The Beaumont Knitting Mill, located at 586 Main Street, is on the west side of Main Street, north of Joseph Street, in Glen Williams, Town of Halton Hills. The three storey stone mill was established in 1878 with several later additions.
The property was designated by the Town of Halton Hills in 1990 for its heritage value under Part IV of the Ontario Heritage Act (By-law 1990-0045).
Heritage Value
The Beaumont Knitting Mill was established by James Leslie, whose family was among the earliest settlers in the Glen Williams area. It is also associated with Samuel Beaumont, a father of industry in Glen Williams who began to manufacture woollen goods at the Beaumont Knitting Mill in 1878. He made several additions to the mill over the years including a one-and-a-half-storey stone addition that fronts Main Street, which was added circa 1880.
The Beaumont Knitting Mill is the oldest remaining mill in Glen Williams. It is an example of the industrial style building common in small Ontario towns in the 19th century. Typical of this type of structure are the mill's coursed rubble limestone construction, symmetrical composition and mansard roof with dormers. The additions to the building reflect the evolution of industrial activities at the mill over time.
Character-Defining Elements
Character defining elements that contribute to the heritage value of the Beaumont Knitting Mill include its:
- three storey coursed rubble limestone exterior
- four sided mansard roof
- dormers
- projected eaves
- double hung 2 over 2 windows
- limestone lintels and sills
- circa 1880 one-and-a-half-storey stone addition

On Saturday, in addition to the red-winged blackbirds, I saw a flock of mallards in the pond, and in among them, a few hybrid drakes. Both were a little bigger than the mallards, but seemed to blend in socially just fine. Tualatin Hills wetland trail near Beaverton, Oregon.
I can't really decide if I really like this shot of the Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects designed ARoS atrium or not. The composition seems quite unbalanced but that's quite unusual for me so I quite like the 'tension' it creates between the two halves of the frame.

From Wikipedia : "The ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum is an art museum in Aarhus, Denmark. The museum was established in 1859 and is the oldest public art museum in Denmark outside of Copenhagen. On 8 April 2004, ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum opened with exhibitions in a brand new modern building, 10 storeys tall with a total floor area of 17,000 m² and designed by Danish architects Schmidt Hammer Lassen. Today ARoS is one of the largest art museums in northern Europe.
ARoS features a shop, café and restaurant. The architectural vision of the museum was completed in 2011, with the addition of the circular skywalk Your rainbow panorama by Ólafur Elíasson. The installation has helped boost the museum's attendance, making it the second most visited museum in Denmark, just behind the well-known Louisiana Museum in Humlebæk."

This chunky, flying brick was a late-addition to the list of imperial shuttles. This particular boat has just ferried Minister Pol-Atumba to T'Rena for trade talks with The Empire. Unbeknownst to the Minister and her guards, she will not be leaving the meeting alive...
This boat is pretty heavily based on this piece. I made a few changes, most of which are pretty obvious. I made the wing tips fold and the cockpit more in line with the brutalist Imperial design language. The rear detailing is based on the lambda shuttle and the windows and guns are based on the zeta shuttle.
I wanted a nice imposing access ramp and I managed to fit two reasonable levels and a spacious cockpit. The main roof lifts off and the cockpit roof hinges up/is removable to see the upper deck. Sliding doors separate the cockpit from the main room and engine access is opposite. The upper deck's floor lifts off to reveal the lower deck/entryway and a ladder connects it all.
The internal structure here is the chonkiest I have ever made. It makes my 2020 SHIP look like a pile of leaves. I am very proud off all of the angles I managed to stick in here, although I do think the cockpit is a tad messy compared witht the rest of the build. All-in-all, I am confident that this boat would be able to support itself and then some irl.

As I have continued to consume photography related content at a ridiculous rate, I feel like I have continued to add tools to my arsenal of editing techniques, while removing old, useless ones. I did my best imitation of an Adam Gibbs style edit, and I am really liking how this looks.
This is yet another image that I had left to rot in my archives because I just didn't know what to do with it. If you look closely enough you're sure to find the many issues because I still didn't understand how to use proper shooting techniques, but I'm incredibly happy with the post processing nonetheless.
With novel decorative addition of the period of white window surrounds BR Class 33/1 33101 passes Brookwood heading 12.10 London Waterloo-Salisbury service.
A new appearance during my lineside visits on the 'main' I seem to remember first seeing the 'up' working of 33101 (pushing) followed by a waiting game for the return!

More gleanings from earlier in the year.
Back window of Seattle Asian Art Museum's new addition.
I had no real clue at the time of what the year would hold for us all.
Standing on the remains of the former B&OCT lift bridge over the Calumet River which was infamously taken out by a freighter in 1988. In the background, the former LS&MS (NYC) bridges are permanently raised and a stack train crosses the sole remaining PFW&C (PRR) bridge that makes up CP 509.
The title is an actual neighborhood. Look at the location description in the info.
My Cable Car , officially the State Cable Transportation Company My Cable Car, is the public company responsible for the administration of the La Paz - El Alto Cable Car urban transport system, which links the cities of La Paz and El Alto , as well as a line tourist in Oruro in Bolivia . The first of its lines began operations on May 30 , 2014 . At the end of the first three lines, it became the longest urban transport cable car network in the world. [On March 9, 2019, the last line corresponding to the second phase of implementation was inaugurated: the Silver Line, which closed the circuit called the Metropolitan Integration Network, and became the tenth line in operation. The system was raised in response to various problems in the metropolitan area of La Paz , made up of the cities of La Paz and El Alto that had a precarious public transport service that did not respond adequately to the increasing demand from users and significant expenses in time and money involved in mobilizing between the two cities, in addition to the chaotic traffic and with high levels of environmental and auditory pollution they generated, the growing demand for gasoline and diesel, which are subsidized by the state. The service allowed the effective connection of the city of La Paz at an average height of 3600 meters above sea level, which has an intricate topography, surrounded by mountain ranges and diverse rivers with the city of El Alto settled on a plain located at 4100 meters above sea level. , reducing travel times and costs.
The cost of the ticket on each line is 3 bolivianos per person. When transferring to another line, the cost is 2 Bolivians. The service allows you to transport bicycles paying an extra ticket except on weekends on the Green and Yellow Lines.

My son & I experienced another big loss in our lives, after just losing my parents whom I took care of. We had to put down our beloved dog Sammy. She was 14 yrs old & died of old age.
This sweet half lab, half cattle dog fell into our laps pretty much. I'm friends with a foster mom for the rescue called Cold Nose Warm Heart Rescue. Max was available for pickup right after Easter! He is such a blessing & wonderful addition to our family!
In addition to the work north of Cherryvale, this SKOL manifest had a pickup from just west of the diamond. Here they are shoving back onto that cut before putting their train back together, and heading off to the east.
another addition to my imagined architecture set :)

In addition to the formation units, the PC-21 joined the RAAF "Roulette" patrol which flew so far on the Pilatus PC-9. The Demonstration Patrol of Central Flight School is based East Sale in the Victoria area. The School formed its first aerobatic team in 1962, the "Red Sales" which flew at the time on De Havilland Vampire, then on Aermacchi MB-326. In 1970, the "Roulettes" were formed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of RAAF and became a permanent team ever since. For the 21 senior instructors of the school, the school commander and the patrol leader offer the selected pilots an opportunity to be part of the "Roulettes". The team is organized into seasons, which last six months, with most members serving on the team for three seasons before moving on to other duties.

The newest addition to the Bridges of London Family Millennium Bridge and one of my favourites Is there a London bridge not to like? The Millennium stretches across the River Thames connecting St. Paul's Cathedral to the Tate Modern. In future posts, I will share some of my favourite London Walks which will include two ways to use this great bridge. If you want a unique visit to London adds each of the bridges along the Thames River to your list of things to do.
For now, I will say the views east or west are not particularly great, though Tower Bridge is in nice view toward the east. What I love most is being at either end of the bridge - Tate Modern side, or St Paul's Cathedral side. I especially favour this area for night photography because there are fewer people out and about after dark. I often mention exploring London after working hours as the city's population dwindles drastically. Depending on the hour you venture out onto London streets, it is entirely possible to have the town to yourself. And, here is a huge promise to you - when you are on your own in the city, you'll appreciate London more and love her even more.
Being atop the Millennium Bridge is fantastic, which I mention above. The contemporary design and airy feel of the bridge lend itself nicely to being below the bridge. If the tide is low climbing down to the banks of the River Thames is easy enough if you don't mind mud on your shoes. The mud does hold a tripod in place very nicely I might add. There are plenty of interesting perspectives for great photos towards The Shard, Tate Modern and even Blackfriars Bridge. The city lights add interesting elements to whichever scene you choose that you will only capture being directly at the water.
For night photography, this is a fantastic spot for a stunning view of St Paul's large dome. Of course, you'll want to be on the bridge and not underneath it. Get right down low, and place your camera on the bridge. Do be warned as others walk by, there is a vibration, so be sure to keep your camera steady. Patience is the key for brilliant images.
Also be aware a few people will ask you not to include them in your photographs. If you know about long exposures, then you know when the shutter is open for a length of time most people will not appear in your image. On one occasion, I proved this to a passerby. She did not like my answer after she told me not to take photos of her. My reply was - "it doesn't matter, you won't show up in my photo." So, I asked her to walk in front of the camera then return to me. She did just that and voila! She was nowhere to be seen in the image.
No matter if you are only a visitor to London or keen to capture brilliant images of the city, the Millennium Bridge should be on your list of things to do. It should be no surprise I think night time is the best time to be here.
I help aspiring and established photographers get noticed so they can earn an income from photography or increase sales.

This is the newest addition to my garden. I spotted this Gazania at our local nursery for $2 and decided on the spot that I had to have it. I love the colour of this one. This is taken with my 75-300 mm lens and the 36 mm Kenko macro extension tube.
A new addition to my "Bayside Impressions" series
I have not done this for a while, but it felt really good to do some black and white long exposure work again. This image and another one were just about right to be added to my series "Bayside Impressions".
Long exposure black and white photography has become a very popular genre in photography and many photographers followed masters like Michael Levin, Jeff Gaydash, Marc Koegel and Joel Tjintjelaar and started experimenting with neutral density filters. I personally enjoy the idea of taking long exposure photographs a lot. It always fascinated me how light gathered on film and produces a image that not only captured light but also time. I did not like the clean and sometimes overproceseds look of some of the digitally processed images. My process is a bit different, it concentrates on the more natural look of a scene and less on the creative interpretation. This is just a different approach and something that suits my personal style more. I hope you are enjoying this photograph. The Bay Bridge and the piers in San Francisco have been photographed many times, but they are still iconic and people will continue to shoot them over th next decades. This is my interpretation, my work, my photograph - one among others but still unique.
Pier 24 is a wonderful place to view and think about photography. If you have not yet been there I highly recommend putting this on your itinerary for the next SF trip.
Recent addition to the Buckie fleet, William John early on Saturday. Looking a bit rusty at the business end but that's all part of the charm.
Amazing builder, Walton F. Wainwright, created an amazing stage with what looks to be like a chapel, a library, and a steaming birthday cake all rolled into one huge monument. Don't miss this one in the back and well worth the trek after listening to one of the talks. A wonderful addition next to the Makati Slade cake

The year in review............once again, I added more than I planned, but oh well.............I will do better in 2021, lol!
