Have been sat on this for a while as I wasn't sure if it worked with the colour cast left by the 10 Stop ND filter.

I finally splashed out on an Mp3 player, and I am pleased with my purchase.
It has been a few years since I noticed the arrival of MP3 players made by then unkowns such as Rio and iRiver. Music players with flash memory and no moving parts had been predicted since as long as I can remember, so they came as no surprise, but at first I could not see the point.
The memory was small, it was irreplacable, and I did not know how to get MP3 files.
The player above comes with software for converting CD music to Mp3 and has 1GB of memory which is enough for 200 songs or about 12 hours of music.
It also has a voice recorder which I hope to use for recording English speakers for use as teaching materials. The reason why I purchased this particular player, at auction for about $150 USD, is because these older iRiver players accept an external microphone, which is pretty essential for recording dialogues.
The reason why I am recommending it here is because this player, weighing only 60gms including battery, with no moving parts, and an armband, can be worn while jogging.
My play list includes
Messengers, "That's the Way a Woman is"
Tracy Chapman, "Fast Car"
The Cure, "Close to Me"
Elvis, "His Latest Flame"
and
The Zombies, "Time of the Season"
The effect, the buzz, the improvement in jogging speed is phenominal. it is almost frightening. Now I know why Lance Amstrong has an Mp3 player built into his sunglasses.

Battery Creek Lock (operated 1851-1880), across the James River from the James River Visitor Center, Blue Ridge Parkway.
This Beaux Arts building, which houses the ferry slips for the Governor's Island ferry, was built in 1906 and was once called the Maritime Ferry Building, It is on the U.S. Register of Historic Places and the New York U.S. National Register of Historic Places and is #243 on the New York City Landmarks list. "Between 2001 and 2005, in a $36 million renovation, the exterior of the building and its deteriorating wooden piers were restored and its exterior repainted in its original multiple color scheme by Jan Hird Pokorny Architects." -- NYC 2008
I believe this is a Cadillac, though I can't see clearly what model it is.
I should have checked out the information after having taken the photo, but it appears the entire trunk is made up of batteries that run the car, instead of an internal combustion engine.
I also didn't take the time to go to the front of the car to see what was under the hood. But it makes me wonder where one puts their groceries or luggage, if the trunk is now a power grid?
The Intercity 727 from Rome to Palermo/Siracusa is now regularly run by two distinct trainset made up by an E464 and four coaches each.
In this case, the heading locomotive, the E464.276, is also equipped with the optional Battery pack installed on the roof top aimed to allow "Last Mile" performances and free access to the Messina Straight ferries without the need of shunters locomotives in Reggio and Messina stations.

I have been offered a film and challenged to use my film camera for a shoot. It must be 25 years since I have used my trusty OM4. Luckily I seem to have stored it reasonably well and, with some fresh batteries, it seems to be fully functional. I will need to read that instuctions book though!
Clever, I thought, and needed in more places. If you have a subscription or are a member you can switch out your tired battery here for a fresh one. It's only the company's batteries (popwheels) and presumably they are high quality batteries of low fire risk.
More here.
Wallabout, Brooklyn.
Amboy, CA. 30 second exposure, with the aid of my flashlight and the moon, which is right behind the "Roy's" sign. I wanted to shot a longer exposure, no flashlight, but it was SO cold out there, and it put the whammy on the battery to my remote.
This is just one battery, and no photoshop, honest! I made a two-mirror "kaleidoscope" with two 3 cm x 13cm (approx.) strips of first-surface mirror placed in an adjustable cradle. With the angle between mirrors adjusted to 72 deg. to create a five-sector rosette, I placed an AAA battery between the mirrors to make this shot, using a tie-die bandana for the background. The top center battery is real, the other four are reflections. Since AAA battery is about 1 cm in diameter, the total image width is about 3cm x 3cm.
How frustrating it is when the battery in the clock on the wall goes dead and you've misplaced your store of new ones.
Flying visit to Battery Point lighthouse at midday today to try a daytime long exposure with the new Fuji Lens.
Battery Hambright was built to protect a minefield in the north channel of the Savannah River in 1899.
This is part of a WWI- and WWII-era bunker on the Marin Headlands outside of San Francisco. (Actually, you can see the Golden Gate Bridge from this structure.) They were built to defend Rodeo Beach (a possible landing site that could have meant the capture of San Francisco) against an attack from the Pacific, and some of them had high-precision guns capable of hitting a target five miles away.
Battery Hearn - The Americans started setting up Battery Hearn in 1918 and completed work on it in 1921 at a cost of $148,105. This 12-inch seacost west-ranged guns had a maximum range of 29,000 yards and was capable of firing in all directions. It was one of the last major additions to Corregidor's defense system which was intended to defend the island against enemy naval threat from the South China Sea. Battery Hearn had been in action firing towards Cavite from February 1942 and on April 8 and 9, 1942, towards Bataan. This gun emplacement was captured nearly intact by the Japanese when Corregidor fell and it was subsequently repaired by them and put back into action. It was, however, completely neutralized by American aerial bombardment in January and February of 1945.

I went to check out a new location near the Battery on Morecambe Prom for sunset, not much of a sunset due to a low bank of cloud on the horizon but these old wooden timbers are sure going to prove a good spot going forward.
