Atacama Compact Array (ACA) on the ALMA high site at an altitude of 5000 metres in northern Chile. The ACA is a subset of 16 closely separated antennas that will greatly improve ALMAâs ability to study celestial objects with a large angular size, such as molecular clouds and nearby galaxies. The antennas forming the Atacama Compact Array, four 12-metre antennas and twelve 7-metre antennas, were produced and delivered by Japan.

This compact car is strongly related to the Dodge Dart and the Chrysler Valiant.
Available with three different engines, this one has the 2790cc 6 cylinder engine.
Overall production Valiant: 1960-1976 over four generations.
This is the 2nd 1962-1966 generation.
In the back we see the body of a Peugeot 403, hopefully waiting to be restored.

I debated for a long time if this shot is a keeper, particularly because of the somewhat dull background. I thought about cropping it out, but then the shot loses depth. Eventually, the gorgeous colors won me over. I didn't have a tripod at the time, but was able to recover some sharpness in photoshop. This morning taught me the wisdom of having extra time at hand when going for a sunrise. We were staying just outside the park boundaries, and those of you who went there know that it's the smallest of national parks. So we never thought getting there in time would be an issue. As it happened, we missed the sign for sunset point and by the time we made a U turn and found it, the first lights had already appeared. Nonetheless, sunrise at Bryce is something I will never forget in my life.
I had to use that cockpit again!

Locomotive History
Built at Crewe works it entered traffic in March 1964 as D1568, allocated to Tinsley. It would spend the next nine years wandering around the Eastern Region with spells at Immingham (1964, 1965, 1971), Finsbury Park (1964), March (1965), Norwich (1968) and Tinsley (1969) until transferred to the London Midland Region at Bescot in July 1973. Its stay at Bescot was brief and after a two month stay it transferred to Crewe where it would remain for the next seventeen years until its last transfer to Tinsley (its original depot) in July 1990. It was withdrawn from Tinsley in April 1991 and was broken up by CF Booth, Rotherham in February 1994.

Ganga ibérica
(Pterocles alchata)
Las gangas son aves propias de desiertos y estepas de África y Asia, que están representadas en la Península Ibérica, de modo marginal, por dos
especies, las cuales aprovechan medios agrícolas de secano tradicionales. La profunda modificación del campo español es responsable del serio declive que padece la población de la ganga ibérica, hoy reducida a solo 8.000- 11.000 individuos
Descripción y Clasificación
Orden Pteroclidiformes; familia Pteroclidae
Longitud 31-39 cm. Envergadura 55 cm.
Identificación
Ave de hábitos terrestres, compacta, corpulenta y de colores miméticos. El macho exhibe una contrastada cabeza, con cara anaranjada, ojo oscuro rodeado de un anillo azul, y lista ocular y garganta negras (dibujo 1). Tiene el cuello y la nuca de color naranja verdoso, y el pecho rojo castaño, enmarcado por dos bandas negras, de las cuales la inferior delimita el vientre, llamativamente blanco. El dorso presenta ocelos dorados que se pierden en invierno, y en las alas plegadas aparecen espejuelos de color verde metálico y con ribetes oscuros. Posee cola muy apuntada, vermiculada por arriba —lo mismo que el obispillo— y blanca con banda subterminal negra por abajo. El pico y las patas —de dedos cortos— son grises, y la parte anterior del tarso está emplumada en blanco. Se diferencia de la ganga ortega por su menor tamaño, su vientre blanco y su cola con plumas centrales muy largas. La hembra es muy parecida, pero menos vistosa. Sus partes inferiores resultan similares a las del macho, pero tiene la garganta blanca y tres bandas negras en el cuello y el pecho. Por su parte, las zonas superiores están más vermiculadas, y los ocelos del dorso muestran además áreas azules (dibujo 2). Los jóvenes son una versión más pálida y menos contrastada de los adultos de cada sexo. Esta ave exhibe un vuelo poderoso y rápido, que deja ver sus alas apuntadas, blancas y negras por abajo (dibujo 3). De hábitos gregarios, más marcados fuera de la época de cría, suele observarse en grupos, por lo general mayores que en la ganga ortega.
Canto
Su voz, muy distintiva, consiste en un áspero graznido (kataa…, kata… y gaaa…, gaaa…), que puede recordar al reclamo de la grajilla.
abandoned near a construction site, whoever left this poor thing here tried (and failed) to protect it with a tarp.
(not the lens...)

The Sandugo was a blood compact, performed in the island of Bohol in the Philippines, between the Spanish explorer Miguel López de Legazpi and Datu Sikatuna the chieftain of Bohol on March 16, 1565, to seal their friendship as part of the tribal tradition. This is considered as the first treaty of friendship between the Spaniards and Filipinos. "Sandugo" is a Visayan word which means "one blood".
The Sandugo is depicted in both the provincial flag and the official seal of the government in Bohol. It also features the image of the blood compact. The top of the seal explains the history behind the Sandugo event that occurred in Bohol, the fleet and the location where the Spaniards anchored and the place where the treaty was conducted which was dated on March 16, 1565
