No Group Banners, thanks.
I generally do not use mobile phones for my photography, preferring to use a dedicated camera; but on this occasion, I only had the phone with me, so here is an exception.
This photo was taken at the Harbourfront Theatre in Summerside, PEI. The band on stage is called Rum Ragged and they are a folk group hailing from the province of Newfoundland and Labrador. They put on an exceptionally good show. The music was superb, the personalities that made up the band were likeable, and the audience was engaged.
This photo was taken with a Pixel 8a. While I had the camera set to record both JPEG and raw files, the raw versions were very poor, to say the least, and were not supported at all by my raw editor of choice anyway. Thus, this is essentially an out of camera JPEG image which was only very slightly adjusted in DxO Photolab. All that said, the resulting photo isn't terrible and does at least give a sense of how the performers looked on stage with the colourful lighting employed for the show.

Overview of 7 Train Upgrades in Queens
The 7 train line, which connects Flushing to Midtown Manhattan, is undergoing significant upgrades in Queens, including at the 33rd Street–Rawson Street station. These improvements are part of a broader initiative to enhance the subway system's infrastructure and accessibility.
Key Upgrades at 33rd Street–Rawson Street Station
Accessibility Improvements
ADA Compliance:
The station is currently undergoing renovations to become ADA-accessible. This includes the installation of elevators, which is part of a larger $6 billion investment in accessibility across the subway system.
Elevator Installation:
The contract for adding two elevators at the station was awarded in December 2023, with work expected to improve access for all riders.
Structural Enhancements
Temporary Platforms: To accommodate construction, temporary platforms have been set up at the 33rd Street–Rawson Street station, along with other nearby stations.
Service Changes:
As part of the ongoing upgrades, Manhattan-bound 7 trains are skipping the 69th and 52nd Street stations through early 2026. Riders are advised to use nearby stations like 74th Street–Broadway and 61st Street–Woodside during this period.
Timeline and Impact
Construction Duration:
The upgrades are expected to continue into 2026, with various phases of work being coordinated to minimize disruptions.
Customer Experience:
These improvements aim to enhance the overall customer experience by providing better access, improved safety, and modernized facilities throughout the 7 train line.
These upgrades are crucial for ensuring that the subway system meets the needs of all New Yorker's, particularly those requiring accessible transit options.

Per Wikipedia:
In 1994 the reservoir was renamed in honor of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis to commemorate her many contributions to the city (which included helping to save Grand Central Terminal from demolition and helping to restore it as an architectural landmark, protesting against proposed structures that would have marred Central Park's beauty, and serving as a board member of the Municipal Art Society). Furthermore, she enjoyed jogging in the area, and the windows of her apartment at 1040 Fifth Avenue overlooked the reservoir.

The Sunnyside Train Yard, Queens, NYC is comprised of 180 acres (72.8 hectares), which is 6x the footprint of Hudson Yards, 2x the size of Battery Park City, and 30 acres larger than Roosevelt Island. As with the other yards (Atlantic & Hudson), Sunnyside is also slated to have a platform constructed above it, so as to further erect buildings and roads atop that. For several years now major realtors have been building properties around the perimeter of the Sunnyside Yard. They're all like vultures, waiting on the kill.

The New York State Appellate Division of the Supreme Court
is the intermediate appellate court in New York State and is located at 27 Madison Avenue within the Flatiron district of New York City.
The gorgeous First Department courthouse was designed by architect James Brown Lord, commissioned by the Justices in 1896. The building was conceived as an expression of the ideals of the law. Lord was responsible for the construction as well as the art and decoration of the building. It opened its doors in 1900.
The iconic, Beaux-Arts structure features a marble facade adorned with classical statues and is a major New York City landmark.

When I went past this historical haunted house on Catherine Street in Alviso today, I saw a for sale sign in front of it. So later I looked up the real estate website and checked out its listing. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw its value went from $634K in 2011 to almost $1.3 million today. I wonder if the real estate agent would list ghosts as part of its amenities. You can check out its listing here:

I caught a glimpse of a shady character inside the jail house in Pinoeertown while I was trying to take a photo of this old west building. The entire town used to be a movie set for western movies in the past. It 's quite interesting to look around.
We had a little break from the storm this afternoon. So I went out and did some walk during lunch hour. The low hanging clouds above the East Bay hills had presented good photo opportunities.
After almost an entire year, this project is starting up again thanks to new funding

Damp night in the neighbourhood, the first day of December 2018. The year is coming to its end damn fast...
Taken with my new Xiaomi Mi 8 smartphone. Wide-angle lens, default camera app, on full auto mode - this is almost straight out of the camera, no editing except cropping it to cinematic 2.39:1 aspect and some levels tweaking. Not bad for a mid-range phone, I'm sure my old DSLR wouldn't be able to match this image quality, regardless of the lens.
My first Car was a Renault 5, it was a Green 1300 GTL UUT 310S and it never looked this Good or went that fast!!! :-)
The Renault 5 Turbo 2 was at The Classic Motor Show at The NEC in Birmingham. Down Loaded from my Sony Smart Phone with the Flickr App.
Concrete pumping is a specialized technique used in the construction industry to move freshly mixed concrete from a ready-mix* truck to the placement area. This process utilizes hydraulic power to transport concrete through a system of pipes and hoses, significantly simplifying the logistics of concrete placement compared to traditional methods like wheelbarrows or crane-lifted buckets.
(*) Ready-mix concrete is concrete that is manufactured in a batch plant and delivered to the job site ready to use. It is ideal for large patios, driveway renovation, pool decks, home foundation slabs, parking lots, and new sidewalk construction.

The UBB aka Unending Building Boom has been slowly suffocating everything in its intensity. And still, they continue to build. This photo was taken from atop the Honeywell Street bridge which spans across the Sunnyside Train Yard. In time a platform will be constructed above the yard, and 180 acres (73 hectares) of railway land will be transformed into the next New York City

Phone calls and Skype home done, all bright eyed and brushy tailed after a second surprisingly good night of sleep.

Here's an interesting tidbit of information not many people know about:
The Hell Gate Bridge in New York City, completed in 1917, is known for its steel arch design and was the longest steel arch bridge in the world at the time. The Sydney Harbour Bridge, in Sydney Australia, inspired by the Hell Gate Bridge, was completed in 1932 and is notable for being the widest long-span bridge globally, showcasing a similar arch design

It as pretty surreal that I had to come to this place to work earlier this week. Next thing you know, I am flying out on one of these planes as shown in this photo.
Spring will arrive soon as the tree branches have begin to spread out. Had taken notice of it about a week ago and thought it odd because it has been so cold. Doesn't matter, for they know somehow

I took a photo of this Victorian house earlier this morning and posted to my social media account in order to showcase the fall colors in our area. Comments from my friends started pouring in. As I applied HDR effect to this photo emphasizing the moody sky, one of my friends helped to add more spooky effect to it. This is the image as a result of our collaboration. I know, we are getting closer to Halloween.
