One of NyÃregyháza's, and pretty much north-eastern Hungary's only two Ikarus 415s, EWS-831 leaving Halmosbokor hamlet behind in the last rays of the early-winter sun.
These two units (the other being EWS-834) are only used as backups now, so it's not that easy to bump into them. During the summer both of them were replacing some Volvos and Credos under maintenance for a solid week or so, but unfortunately we just missed them with Michał (we had more luck with 200 series in the area).
This picture would've been possible without the help of Tamás, I hope that he will also reveal some hits from this rather pleasant day very soon! :)
We really dodged a bullet with our recent winter storm. They had predicted an ice storm with up to a half an inch of ice. But we ended up getting mostly sleet and a couple of inches of snow. The last time we had ice at a half inch, our power was out for almost four days....and we spent the first three in our bitterly cold house, desperately wishing we had a backup option. Every space heater in the area had been snapped up by the time we could get to the store, but on day four we managed to find this kerosene heater. And wouldn't you know, about four hours after we set it up and finally got warm....the power came back on.
At any rate, we didn't take any chances this time, and had our heater set up and ready for action before the event. I'm pleased to say we didn't need it, but as there is another storm on the horizon for the end of the week....this thing is staying right where it is for now. 😊
Hopefully all my uploads from here on out will be new content. This was taken last summer at the Italian Gathering in Columbus, Ohio.
Fighting those furry critters (aka Ewoks aka most hated creature in the whole SW-universe besides Han Solo) has 2 golden rules:
Rule #1: look cool - always
Rule#2: have an AT-AT following you closely
I just love the panic in the eye of the Ewok on the left. Run Forrest, RUN!
Big news, we are announcing the first Hero Tour! next October we will spend 6 days shooting the most remarkable spots around the North Island, New Zealand.
We will start the tour from Auckland airport and quickly head to Rotorua, where we'll be shooting lakes and jetties with a few waterfalls and canyons, then on to a night staying up on Mt Ruapehu shooting the Alpine desert and mountains of central north island. If for some reason the weather turns against us we have a backup planned in Waitomo to shoot glow worm caves. After the mountains we head to New Plymouth to shoot seascapes, more mountains, waterfalls and the Lighthouse.
The tour starts on October 28th and returns to Auckland on November 2nd. There is a maximum group size of 8 people, 3 places are already filled.
You'll be doing this with myself and Dennis Radermacher, both experienced award winning photographers. Whilst there's no formal teaching scheduled we'll be on hand to give help on shooting techniques, and processing during the daytime hours.
We are both experienced tutors, first aid certified and have passenger endorsements for transport, and Doc concessions for locations where we require it.
