Fin de travaux sur la ligne Bourges-Montluçon !
Fermée depuis Juin 2023 (!), la ligne a réouvert en intégralité le Lundi 2 Septembre 2024.
Les derniers trains de travaux stationnent sur la base arrière de La Ville Gozet (comme ici une BR214 et ses ballastières), avant de partir vers leurs prochaines missions.
Anaglyph (from the Greek. Άνάγλυϕος "relief") is a method of obtaining a stereo effect for a stereo pair of ordinary images using color coding of images intended for the left and right eyes. To obtain the effect, it is necessary to use special (anaglyphic) glasses, in which instead of the lenses there are inserted filters of a pair of additional colors: as a rule, for the left eye - red, for the right one - turquoise. The stereo image is a combination of stereo pair images, in which the picture for the left eye is shown in the red channel (the right one does not see it because of the light filter), and in turquoise (blue-green) - for the right one. That is, each eye perceives an image that is colored in the opposite color. It can be used as a rule. In the red-cyan anaglyph, it can be seen as the "white", and the cyan within the anaglyph as the "black". The eye viewing through the cyan filter visions of the opposite. Actual black or white in the anaglyph display, being void of color, are perceived to be the same. Only the green has been perceived. Red is not perceived because cyan gel. However, green and blue are perceived through cyan gel.

Russia, Kamchatka, Tolbachik, "Leningradka" Base Camp
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tolbachik is a volcanic complex, which consists of two volcanoes: Plosky (flat) Tolbachik (3,085 m) and Ostry (sharp) Tolbachik (3,682 m). In the early 70's in the Tolbachik dale were tested first Soviet apparatus "Lunokhod-1" (Moonwalker) and "Marsokhod-1" (The Mars rover). This place was called "Leningradka Base Camp".

Толба́чик — вулканический массив на Камчатке. Состоит из двух вулканов Плоский (3085м) и Острый (3682м) Толбачик. В начале 70-х годов в районе Толбачинского дола проводились испытания первых советских аппаратов «Луноход-1» и «Марсоход-1».
Based on a (3D) design I had made for a past contest flic.kr/p/ViJnST.
Also recently recycled here flic.kr/p/249jCXs.
Nano-instructions: flic.kr/p/249J2d3.
a sort of reflection about what the failure. this is what allows us to make progress?
In any case, I liked crumpled paper after having folded the base!!
fold from one uncut square of kraft paper (40/40cm) for each piece ...
for the hedgehog I use the base of my glyptodon: a sort of frog base ...
So I can say now: it's not so esasy to crumpled paper as you want !!!!!

E.27-12 (792-12) / E.27-04 (792-04) / PILATUS AIRCRAFT PC-21 / ACADEMIA GENERAL DEL AIRE (AGA / 792 ESC) / BASE AÉREA DE TALAVERA LA REAL (LEBZ) / SPOTTING DAY
El Pilatus PC-21 (designado como E.27 por el Ejército del Aire y del Espacio de España) es considerado uno de los aviones de entrenamiento más avanzados y eficientes del mundo.
De fabricación suiza (Pilatus Aircraft), es el pilar de la modernización de la formación de pilotos militares en España, sustituyendo al icónico reactor CASA C-101 Aviojet.
🚀 El Concepto: Rendimiento de Jet con Coste de Hélice La clave del PC-21 radica en su capacidad para ofrecer un rendimiento de vuelo muy similar al de un reactor de combate, pero utilizando un motor turbo hélice. Motor: 1 turbohélice Pratt & Whitney Canada PT6A-68B, con una potencia de $1.600$ CV (caballos de vapor).Velocidad Máxima: $685$ km/h. Aunque es subsónico, su velocidad y su tasa de ascenso son excepcionalmente altas para un avión de hélice. Maniobrabilidad: Capaz de soportar factores de carga de hasta $+8G$ / $-4G$. Esta capacidad permite realizar la mayoría de las maniobras avanzadas necesarias para la instrucción de combate. Eficiencia: Es la principal ventaja. El coste por hora de vuelo del PC-21 es significativamente menor (se estima que hasta un 50% menos) que el de un reactor de entrenamiento avanzado puro.
💻 Tecnología de Vuelo y Cabina El PC-21 se distingue por su avanzada aviónica, diseñada para simular la cabina de un caza de quinta generación:
Cabina Digital (Glass Cockpit): Posee pantallas multifunción (MFD) que reemplazan los instrumentos analógicos tradicionales.
HUD (Head-Up Display): Dispone de un sistema de visualización frontal que proyecta información vital (velocidad, altitud, blancos) directamente en el campo de visión del piloto.
HOTAS (Hands On Throttle And Stick): El piloto puede operar los sistemas cruciales sin quitar las manos del mando y el acelerador, imitando la ergonomía de un caza.
Simulación de Sistemas: Puede simular el uso de radar, armamento aire-aire y aire-suelo, y sistemas de contramedidas electrónicas (ECM). Esto reduce la necesidad de horas de vuelo en aviones de combate costosos como el Eurofighter o el F/A-18.Seguridad: Cuenta con cabina presurizada (algo que el C-101 no tenía) y asientos eyectables Martin-Baker CH16C para el instructor y el alumno.
Uso en España (Ejército del Aire y del Espacio)
El PC-21 es la plataforma de entrenamiento central en la Academia General del Aire y del Espacio (AGA) en San Javier (Murcia).
Rol en la AGA: Sustituye al C-101 en la formación de futuros pilotos. Gracias a su avanzado paquete de entrenamiento (que incluye simuladores y un sistema de instrucción basado en tierra), permite una formación aeronáutica completa que abarca desde las fases más elementales hasta la transición casi directa a las unidades operativas de combate.
Patrulla Águila: Como mencionamos antes, el PC-21 es el avión que asumirá el rol de la Patrulla Águila, que está actualmente en fase de transición y reentrenamiento para adaptar sus espectaculares maniobras a las características del nuevo turbohélice.
En resumen, el Pilatus PC-21 es un avión que combina un alto rendimiento acrobático con una tecnología de cabina digital, convirtiéndolo en la herramienta perfecta para formar a los pilotos militares del siglo XXI con la mayor eficiencia de costes posible.

Been away a long while with really all sorts going on! Difficult times but all well and happy now. So here's one from the iPhone! Lovely day in the Lakeland fells, great light ...no camera though so don't look too closely. The plan is to get back out doing stuff...er..soon?!
These are called gravity base foundations. These are concrete blocks each weighing 5,000 tonnes. They will be submerged off Fécamp (Seine-Maritime) to accommodate the offshore wind farms. In total, 71 concrete monsters built and parked in Le Havre for several months must leave the port area. Le Havre pilots have received 500 hours of specific training to enable this exceptional transport.
On appelle ça des fondations gravitaires. Il s'agit de blocs de béton pesant chacun 5 000 tonnes. Ils seront immergés au large de Fécamp (Seine-Maritime) pour accueillir les éoliennes du parc en mer. Au total, 71 monstres de béton construits et parqués au Havre depuis plusieurs mois doivent quitter la zone portuaire. Les pilotes havrais ont reçu 500 heures de formation spécifique pour permettre ce transport hors norme.
This is my third and last display base (after those I've built for Tahu and Lewa), created for the Month of Earth.
Thanks to the amazing gabriele.zannotti : without his tutorials, I would've never been able to make the crystals glow, or the focal blur effect on the renders.
The US navy had a base at Capricorn Wharf along Macquarie Street, Teneriffe in Brisbane during WWII which played a significant role in the war in the Pacific. During the regeneration of the area in the 1990's, a heritage park and trail were established to pay homage to not only the US submarines and their crew but all submarines from Australia, the USA, Great Britain and New Zealand that were either based here or used Brisbane as a port of call and repair facility during the war.
The article below describes some of the history of the base and also has a number of photos of the site as it was during the war and the '90's regeneration project also. The area has nicely matured now.
The three photos from left clockwise are the centre of the current commemorative park which includes quite a few plaques with descriptions of various submarines from all four nations and other associated history from the conflict as well as seating in the shape of various classes of vessel. The top right shot features a submariner's prayer and details of one submarine based here that was lost at sea and the final shot is of course of the flags of the four nations involved. More details of all US and Australian vessels that served from Brisbane are shown on commemorative plaques in Newstead Park down the road.

Development of the trilogy blog – pride – persons.
The second part of this trilogy that I dedicate to explain, and to explain myself, because I use the captions (feet) of my photos as if they were my personal blog. This time I will comment because I feel proud, basing on my concept of person that I exposed in the first photo of the trilogy.
I am a heterosexual crossdresser girl. It is a fact … but, what does it means? If I you tell the truth, I don´t know it with certainty. It seems as if every crossdresser girl had her own definition … probably because there are many branches inside the crossdress … but this it is another theme. I suppose that to the others happen like to me, I am ashamed instinctively of this facet of my life, it is something cultural, the image of the "transvestite" is at least ridiculous, laughable, even I fall down in it without thinking it. It is like if it was so unnatural, so out of place, so incomprehensibly … why a sane man, that considers himself as man, would try to pass off as a woman?... And this it is the nice image, also there is the vicious image, in which you are a disgusting pervert which who know how many more barbarities will do. It is not to feel very proud … not. But the reason wins to the instinct, I am a person, and as such I have reasoning and feelings, and they say to me that this it is not the reality, it is not my reality. Maybe it is a parafilia, as some people say, or maybe it is the aptitude to overcome the assigned role and experiencing positive sensations that are denied to us without reason. I do not have answers, disease or quality, I don´t know, but I know that I do not have motives for which to be ashamed. I am a person, with multiple characteristics, but none of them defines me lonely and to be a crossdresser girl is not the exception, only it is a small part of me. Globally I am not discontented with me, do not understand me badly, I should improve very much as person, but if tomorrow I would die and I would have to give account for my life and for what I am, I believe that I would go out in peace, and it is a motive of pride. The global pride like person, to feel yourself well with total honesty is what really matters. And the pride for the different characteristics that I have? It is a different pride, with different purposes, bad some as arrogance, and other more positive as the reaffirmation. The pride that I feel for be a crossdress girl is of this type. If the things were as they should be, surely I would not feel proud for it, would be another characteristic more as to have small foot or the dark eyes. But unfortunately the things are not like that, and some groups have had to use pride as method of defense, as reaffirmation against discriminations and injustices.The example most clear is the homosexuality. I am hetero and it allows me to see the situation from out, impartially, and I believe that they do very well in feeling proud, because understandable better or worse, what harm do it?, why to make to feel badly to a person for a quality that goes implicit in that person?... My crossdress does not harm anybody either and though I can give up practising it, it is not anything that could make disappear of me, as I cannot change my liking or my way of being, it is a part of my intimate self. So, if I see it good for the others, why not for me?
I look around and see so many motives for what the people should be ashamed, so many attitudes, so many actions that cause so much harm … And later I look at me, being ashamed instinctively for wearing a dress or for feeling feminine … Not … I refuse to accept it, it is possible that in the moment I could not avoid the instinct, but I refuse to accept consciously a shame that does not correspond to me, because of it I am proud! This one is not an allegation in order that we all go out to the light and feel us superproud (though it would be very well also I understand that it is very difficult and dangerous), it is for feeling us well with ourselves and we do not torture psychologically ourselves without motive. The crossdress makes me feel good, and when I dress and look at the mirror, there goes out for me a smile of satisfaction and pride. I am proud!!
Desarrollo de la trilogía blog-orgullo-personas.
Segunda parte de esta trilogía que dedico a explicar, y a explicarme a mi misma de paso, el porque utilizo los pies de fotos como si fueran mi blog personal. Esta vez os comentaré porqué me siento orgullosa, basándome en mi concepto de persona que expuse en la primera foto de la trilogía.
Soy una chica crossdresser heterosexual. Es un hecho… pero, ¿que significa eso? Si os digo la verdad, ni yo misma lo se con seguridad. Parece como si cada chica cd tuviera su propia definición… quizás porque hay muchísimas ramas dentro del crossdress… pero ese es otro tema. Supongo que a las demás os pasará como a mí, me avergüenzo instintivamente de esta faceta de mi vida, es algo cultural, la imagen del “travesti” es como mínimo ridícula, risible, yo misma caigo en eso sin pensarlo. Es como si fuera tan antinatural, tan fuera de lugar, tan incomprensible… ¿por que un hombre cuerdo, que se considera hombre, intentaría pasar por mujer?... Y esa es la imagen amable, también está la imagen viciosa, en la que eres un pervertido asqueroso que ha saber que barbaridades mas hará. No es para sentirse muy orgullosa… no. Pero la razón vence al instinto, soy una persona, y como tal tengo razonamiento y sentimientos, y ellos me dicen que esa no es la realidad, no es mi realidad. Quizás se trate de una parafilia como dicen algunos, o quizás sea la capacidad de superar el rol asignado y experimentar sensaciones positivas que nos son negadas sin razón. No tengo respuestas, enfermedad o cualidad, no lo se, lo que si se es que no tengo motivos por los que avergonzarme. Soy una persona, con múltiples características, pero ninguna de ellas me define por si sola y ser una chica cross no es la excepción, solo es una pequeña parte de mi. Globalmente no estoy descontenta de mi misma, no me entendáis mal, debería de mejorar muchísimo como persona, pero si mañana muriera y tuviera que rendir cuentas sobre mi vida y lo que soy, creo que saldría en paz, y eso es motivo de orgullo. El orgullo global como persona, el sentirse bien con una misma de forma totalmente sincera es lo que realmente importa. ¿Y el orgullo por las diferentes características que tengo? Ese es un orgullo distinto, con distintas finalidades, algunas malas como la soberbia, y otras mas positivas como la reafirmación. El orgullo que siento por ser una chica crossdress es de este tipo. Si las cosas fueran como deberían de ser, seguramente no me sentiría orgullosa por ello, sería otra característica mas como el tener los pies pequeños o los ojos negros. Pero desgraciadamente las cosas no son así, y algunos colectivos han tenido que tirar de orgullo como método de defensa, como reafirmación ante discriminaciones e injusticias. El ejemplo mas claro de esto es la homosexualidad. Yo soy hetero y eso me permite ver la situación desde fuera, imparcialmente, y creo que hacen muy bien en sentirse orgullosos, porque se entienda mejor o peor, ¿que mal hacen a nadie?, ¿por que hacer sentir mal a una persona por una cualidad que va implícita en ella?... Mi crossdress tampoco hace mal a nadie y aunque puedo renunciar a practicarlo, no es algo que pueda hacer desaparecer de mí, al igual que no puedo cambiar mis gustos o mi forma de ser, es parte de mi yo íntimo. Así que si lo veo bien para los demás, ¿por que no para mí?
Miro alrededor y veo tantos motivos por lo que la gente debería avergonzarse, tantas actitudes, tantas acciones que hacen tanto mal… Y después me miro a mí, avergonzándome instintivamente por ponerme un vestido o por sentirme femenina… No… no lo acepto, puede que en el momento no pueda evitar el instinto, pero me niego a aceptar conscientemente una vergüenza que no me corresponde, ¡por eso estoy orgullosa! Este no es un alegato para que salgamos todas a la luz y nos sintamos superorgullosas (aunque eso estaría muy bien también entiendo que es muy difícil y peligroso), sino para que nos sintamos bien con nosotras mismas y no nos martiricemos psicológicamente sin motivo. El crossdress me hace sentir bien, y cuando me visto y me miro al espejo, me sale una sonrisa de satisfacción y orgullo. ¡¡Estoy orgullosa!!
