Compass Bus' DAF DB250/Wright Eclipse Gemini LJ05 BNK, which carries the company's corporate livery, is pictured here on Queens Road, Brighton, whilst working Brighton & Hove's 7X service to Brighton Station. 02/08/16

 

Previously with Arriva London South as fleet number DW126.

 

The summer of 2016 saw the introduction of a new limited-stop variant of service 7. The service, numbered 7X, provides a faster, more scenic link from Brighton Marina to Brighton Station. It runs at a 20-minute frequency along the seafront via Marine Parade stopping only at Paston Place (forCounty Hospital), then non-stop to the Sea Life Centre, Old Steine and North Street.

 

Due to staff shortages, Brighton & Hove worked closely with other local operators to support specific services. The company sub-contracted this service out to Compass Bus, using a pair of VDL DB250/Wright Eclipse Gemini vehicles recently acquired by the company, from Arriva London South.

 

In addition to this, Brighton & Hove also sub-contracted its 77 service out to Seaford & District. Closed-top double-deck vehicles were allocated on weekdays, and open-top / heritage vehicles were allocated on weekends.

2021-019 Compass - This is a stack of 19 images. From my research, it looks like the average number of images to use is somewhere between 30 and 50. As I expected, there are mechanical aids to help maintain consistent microadjustments. Now I just have to decide how much I'm willing to invest in such aids. :)

This Compass jellyfish (Chrysaora hysoscella) is swimming along beside Lundy Island (owned by the National Trust) complete with a little fish in symbiotic relationship.

According to www.marlin.ac.uk "Chrysaora hysoscella has a thickened bell (manubrium) that can grow up to 30 cm in diameter. The edges of the bell are developed into 32 lobes and bear 24 marginal tentacles. These are arranged in eight groups of three which alternate with eight sensory organs and are capable of great elongation. The marginal tentacles are conical in shape with a flattened thicker base giving the jellyfish a fluted appearance. They are also covered with clusters of stinging cells (nematocysts). It has a long and slender manubrium which leads onto 4 oral arms that are fused for a short distance at its base. Typically Chrysaora hysoscella is yellowish white in colour with a highly distinctive brown pattern like the radii of a compass."

The Geomantic Compass

 

The geomantic compass used in Feng Shui evaluations is called the luopan in Chinese meaning "all" and "bowl". It is said that all the knowledge pertaining to the physics and flow of energies of the planet is written inside the compass.

 

The original Geomantic Compass had 36 rings, whereas, the most recent ones are simpler and have from 8 to 24 rings. In these rings, aside from the needle always pointing North/South, we find the correct information to do a perfect feng shui evaluation. The concentric circles of the compass contain the numbers of the Magic Squares (9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1), the 8 Trigrams of the I Ching (Yiying) and their corresponding directions, as well as the Heavenly Stems and Earth Branches. Also in the circles are contained the 28 equatorial divisions which are an important part of the evaluation because they help determine not only the ideal site, but the correct place for that particular individual to live.

 

In order for a feng shui evaluation to be accurate and correct the compass must be used. This is because the individual must be evaluated as to their personal data first in order to proceed with the terrain (topography) and site evaluation for that particular person. For example, in South Florida we have flat land with some areas below sea level. We also have swampy grasslands which are not favorable because stagnant water can attract negative energies. Using the compass we can determine the correct site to avert the negative energies of the stagnant water. This also apply to areas crowded with buildings, particularly apartment buildings.

The final piece for the Seacoast Redefined show. Hooray! I love finishing up the last piece for a show, it's such a satisfying feeling.

This is an antique compass sitting on the joint of my mailbox. I think it gives off an absolutely New England vibe. For the rest of the Compass-Flower pictures, I will let the art speak for itself.

A compass may be needed when travelling across the ill-tempered oceans of human thought

Taken in Salcombe on the last day of July. Plenty of these in our increasing warm coastal waters. I even managed a sea swim 2 days in a row last week. Unheard of for me! Then I saw a few of these and just stayed knee deep !

The diagrams show the folding of the Basic Compass Rose Module. This is just another variation of the Wind Rose Module. Do not use this module together with the Wind Rose Modules. I have not tried that but there is no harm trying. However, I cannot guarantee good results.

 

The assembly is similar to the "Snowflake Modules" posted earlier here - www.flickr.com/photos/61236172@N08/8487800798/in/set-7215... . Please refer to it if you are not familiar with the assembly. Leave a little gap between the edges of the cupboard fold [step 1] for easier assembling of the modules.

Compass Bus took over service 32 on 1st June 2015, following previous operator Arriva's decision its financial performance was not good enough - Compass won the resulting Surrey CC tender process.

 

Four new Enviro200s were acquired for the route.

 

The fourth arrival, YY15 NHM, is seen here, the skirt on its emergency exit door painted brown since I'd last seen it.

 

It's performing the route's double run through Brockham to Strood Green and back, while heading to Guildford.
