Lens: smc Pentax-DAL 50-200mm f/4.6-6 ED WR
I bought this lens for a super bargain price. Basically it got bad reviews because the focus mechanism is noisy which it is. I was thinking about selling as I never really use it but with this photo I'm somewhat impressed so I think I will keep and use it.
These are the first of many to come. I spotted under a Doublefile Viburnum at the corner of the house. Hopefully we will have many more.
Basically, Bartholdi High School. Auguste Bartholdi, the creator of the Statue of Liberty, hails from Colmar
Basically the same image posted weeks ago but painted AND with one change that you will need to look carefully for. You'll never find it.
These steps were inundated with tourists just hours before and will be so again as soon as the sun comes up.
I love this time of the morning. The light is pleasing and there are no crowds, allowing me to work at my own pace and where I want. Sometimes I look for people to include in my photographs but usually at night when again the light is good. But the morning is my favorite time. I own the morning. I'll sleep when I get old.
Basically popped down to Port Quin (a historic fishing village and port ) on a reconnaissance mission to sum up some vantage points for any forthcoming sunsets.
However there had just been a heavy shower and as so often happens the light then turned out to be quite interesting, and in turn was accompanied by some nice shadows as well. I thought it was worth getting the kit out and bagging a couple of shots.
Thank you for looking, and very much appreciate your comments.
I travel to take photographs and take photographs to travel :-)

Basically an edited gyazo photo. I messed up the shadows and the resolution but in the end i still liked how it came out.
A trio of Union Pacific GEs leads the North Platte to BRC Clearing manifest past our mobile grill-out session on the UP Clinton Subdivision. Fret not, out of all the times we've taken over this class B road, not a single soul has shown up to get through the pseudo-blockade we have going on. Taken on 7/2/22.
Basically, bokeh is the quality of out-of-focus or “blurry” parts of the image rendered by a camera lens – it is NOT the blur itself or the amount of blur in the foreground or the background of a subject. The blur that you are so used to seeing in photography that separates a subject from the background is the result of shallow “depth of field” and is generally simply called “background blur”. The quality and feel of the background/foreground blur and reflected points of light, however, is what photographers call Bokeh
Instant love for the Pyer Poncho by Varsity at the Men Jail. It's stylish as all hell - be aware it keeps your arms rigid by your side but it really needs it so basically just suck it up. It's worth it.
Teaming it here with the Liany hat from CheerNo - this is an ancient item from 2011 and I don't know if it's still available folks, sorry - and the Dakota earrings from Jumo. Belt and pants are Tomoto. Gloves are from Noche.
Running out of clever things to say with my pics so I'll just stare moodily off into the distance as I pose in great things other people have made.
So basically, I made my closest friends here on Flickr in lego form.
X MAN loves Batman, so he has suited up as the dark knight.
Liv} Mains mercy so this was the obvious choice.
I am in a Captain America suit, because I have a healthy obsesssion.
The comments are probably going to be flooded with inside jokes.
PLEASE COMMENT IF YOU FAVE
Thanks,
Boss.
I gotta get better about uploading.
Wot it says basically !!
To all my flickr friends I will let Scary Santa say it all !!

A straight shot seen from the road with just a vignette added plus a few words .
Thank you all for all the views , faves and comments throughout the year and have yourselves a lovely Christmas and a great new year to you all !!
Another collage of images. This one is basically three. The self portrait, the tunnel which I made out of painted plywood and the shadow which was created in photoshop.
Basically, the rest of the pic I posted some months ago...
Amtrak 3, the Southwest Chief, splits the blades at East Wagon Mound, NM on BNSF's Raton Sub. Sadly, this was one of only four sets I saw between Springer and Las Vegas (ESS Colmor, WSS Levy, Intermediates between Levy and Wagon Mound, and ESS Wagon Mound). The rest appear to have been replaced by the standard stop-light style.
Gotta love the wide-open views of northern New Mexico.
Basically, from my front door tonight, but with some enhancements/adjustments trying to get it uploaded in time for some Wednesday groups.
On late Thursday night, July 7, 2022 I replaced the one that was here with one barely noticeably change, but a better job on touching up some pixelation in the lower part of the sunset, that really wasn't very good. The whole basic picture is almost exactly the same but with some tiny little improvements. I know tiny little is redundant, but that is how I like to say it. Ever since I was a tiny little girl. ;o)

basically it is an orchis italica but it can only be crossed with another species in order to be so different from the majority...
After basically only seeing Csx standard cabs I felt the need to go back to October for some fall color. Tilden 8 heads back to the yard with loads for the lake freighters.

June 8 Snowfall in Yellowstone National Park. This photo was from our trip in 2019. It really can snow basically any month of the year in Yellowstone.
I saw these "ghosts" in a store window display on Melrose in L.A. and I was so taken with them that I never even bothered to look at what kind of store it was! This is a straight photo (pretty much) but I suspect you'll see these ghosts reincarnated in some future photo-manipulation project.
Falkland steamer ducks are flightless, so it is interesting how they chase other steamer ducks. Basically, they use their short wings to do their version of the breast stroke, paddling furiously. I saw some aggression from one, and they can really move. They seem to be quite aggressive at times, with lots of the battle being performed underwater.
These are big ducks, up to 4kg. I find their plumage to be quite striking. This individual seems to be missing some feathers on its head, with patches of orange and red showing. I saw others that looked similar.
They are closely related to the flying steamer duck, which can fly, judging by its name. Both can be found on the Falkland Islands.
This was basically a house money shot. I had already accomplished the scenic "wow" shots of this train, as it trundled back to Trona I debated not even taking this picture. Nothing special... but the light was great so why not. Well, good thing I ignored the impulse to be a moron, because this exact shot is no longer possible. TRC 2007 and 2009 have been cut up this past week and will never again ply the desert. Acquired in 2002, Trona would end up with 3 former UP SD40-2's. The deck was stacked against them from the beginning. To start, they were already ratty looking and were replacing some gorgeous looking SD45-2's, painted in a resplendent red and silver scheme. Then of course, they weren't as neat as the former SP units on property still sporting their scarlett and grey. Third, a more common locomotive there was not. Union Pacific rostered 1,079 SD40-2's at one time, part of the staggering 4,029 produced by EMD between 1972 and 1989. At some point though, they transcended being mundane and entered the realm of cool again. In the age of GE dominance and Tier 4 nonsense, Trona's 7 EMD's became the rock against which progress gnashed its teeth. Watching these ugly beasts climb the grade, roaring through a hellish landscape on only two steel rails as they climb nearly vertical out of the basin.... I guess they aren't so mundane after all.
Basically Eilidh´s version of "Square Go then, Outside. Right now. You won't." -insert eyes emoticon here-.
I do realise I spend most of my time creating stuff or taking pictures and then work than actually developing poor Eilidh.. But oh well... Maybe one day I will be able to RP properly. Lol.
Fuji X-Pro1 plus Helios 44M-7 at F8. Our furniture is a kind of bricolage - bits and pieces from different places and often relating to particular stories, lives re-arranged and expressed through our eclectic interior, a composite entity just as my mind is. Therefore, should it be true that the outside is a reflection of the inside, then this should also hold for my hobby, photography. I am not creating anything when making images. I am re-arranging what I see. Different from, say, a painter, I do not create something new. I am actually interpreting or translating what I see. Most of the time, that is. Sometimes, I design something and then take the picture. Usually, however, I am looking at things that are already out there and then give this a visual expression. Basically, I am a translator. And I am keenly aware that there can be very fine and also less convincing translations.
So basically the last 3 pictures I took them in less than 2 min on the same day … random pose.. uff amazing -snap.. pose changing, fuck dope .. snap… pose changing kinda cute snap 😂✨ this was literally me… and some days not even trying my best something good comes out.. and all this to say life is exactly like this.. one day amazing one day less of it and it is ok ❤️
Another shot from my trip to Wales... and another location where we had to pay to park! Coming from Scotland where our land is much more free and accessible we found this a bit of a culture shock in a way that everywhere wanted money for parking!
I was lucky as this was taken about mid day and I got a nice bit overcast light and a high tide which hid what was a messy foreground! Especially when there was basically no wave action the LE was my best approach!
A small mosaic pot ... on its side ... with a Lobelia growing out of it ... in another larger mosaic pot. The red chips of glass really sparkle in the sunlight.
So proud of how my balcony is looking at the moment.
Bleh. Basically the title. I'm planning on doing an application for the nightwing role in the Lego DC Comics Stories group, and I'm planning on using this fig. Anyways, if you haven't checked it out, GO DO IT NOW OR I WILL TRADE YOUR SOUL TO SATAN.

That's from the vine covering one side of our garden wall. I let the vine cover a large area basically for this time of the year and the colour explosion it creates.
It's been done before but I'm basically benchless and desperate! The Flower Pot men are at the Rocks Cafe Griffin (actually at Dohle's Rocks) just across the Pine River, north of Brisbane. Nice quiet little dead end suburb to have a peaceful coffee and cake and talk to the Masked Lapwings and Magpies while eating. HBM
But basically he was incurable, for he did not want to be cured ... Certainly he was a most inconvenient and indigestible component in a community whose idea was harmony and orderliness. ... And, to our mind, this was the very reason his friend cherished him (Hermann Hesse, The Glass Bead Game).
