Surprise - when you move your mug, you're greeted with a little butterfly!
What do you think, partner? Bright and cheery enough for you on a gloomy day?
First attempt at capturing a star trail under the expert tutelage of Eric Mc Donald and Mark T . This shot was taken at Black Tor on Dartmoor and consists of some 90 frames, stacked and blended in Photoshop. The orange and red glows at the bottom of the image are caused by ambient light coming from Princetown and the mast at North Hessary Tor.
#Tulabelle COMPLETE!!! Okay here's the tea, I wasn't feeling her at first but omg wow!! I love her! She's iconic and colorful glam!!!
After completing the run-round manoeuvre (see previous image), Class 58 No. 58031 heads away from Bloxwich and approaches Sneyd Lane bridge with the empty MGR rake for Essington Wood Disposal Point on 15th July 1986. The 'new' Bloxwich station, which opened in 1989, is now located by the bridge in the background. It replaced the earlier station, which closed in January 1965, which was located beyond the background bridges close to the signal box seen in the previous image.

Completado ya mi primer proyecto fotográfico, ha sido fácil y difícil, días que en una sola foto tenía el día hecho y días de desesperación pero todos los días superados... Siempre intentando comerme el tarro para conseguir fotografías diferentes, intentando variar, no ser cansino con un solo tema, me he pasado con los desenfoques...lo sé, pero es que me encantan.
Un año intenso en el que mi dedicación a la fotografía ha sido plena e intensa... Cuando me preguntan a ver cuanto tiempo le dedico, me pasa la cabeza... las 24 horas al día,hasta de cuando dormimos podemos sacar, posibles fotos, simplemente de un sueño, motivo: es una adicción, un hobbie que como te enganche y quieras ir superándote día a día necesita su dedicación. Cuando consigo una cosa ya no me motiva, quiero otra, son mini retos personales, quizás el ser inconformista, virtud o defecto, depende como se mire.
Del proyecto puedo decir que es una gran forma de aprender cosas porque te obliga a tener que pensar, depende el nivel de autoexigencia que tenga cada uno. Pero requiere muchísimo tiempo.
Un año en el que he conocido gente fantástica, de la cual he aprendido mil cosas, cada fotógrafo somos un mundo diferente.
Un año en que tengo inmortalizados momentos, recuerdos de cada día ver una foto y recordar. Simplemente fotografía, que no se necesita que una fotografía bonita para recordar... días alegres, días tristes, sentimientos, emociones... Fotografías que te sacan una sonrisa, fotografías que te saltan las lagrimas.
Dar las gracias a toda la gente que ha estado ahí siguiéndome, apoyándome en varios bajoncillos que he tenido... Gente que conocía ya de antes del proyecto y gente que os he ido conociendo mientras he ido completando días... Muchas gracias a todos...
Gracias a esa persona que estuvo hasta la mitad del proyecto y que tanto me aguantó con las fotos.
Dar las gracias a Medialuna85 la principal motivadora, de unos meses aquí... Solo se nos ocurre a nosotros, retos de una palabra una fotografía... una locura... Un añadido más a este proyecto... Una encantadora persona con un gran corazón.
Gracias a mis padres, por ayudar a dar ideas ( porque no le sacar una foto a esto) y yo comiéndome la cabeza como sacar una foto a una simple esponja, una varilla de esas pasteleras... muchas cosas... mis abstractos de la cocina XD. Mi hermano y cuñada también, gracias por aguantarme a dejaros a hacer fotos... Paciencia es poca la que tenéis conmigo.
Ahora me veo mas capacitado que hace para enfrentarme a este gran mundo y seguir aprendiendo.
El motivo del la foto de mi ojo es porque de el han salido todas y cada una de mis fotos. El es el culpable tanto para lo bueno como para lo malo.
Nos seguiremos viendo pero ya sin la presión de tener que subir fotos para completar días...
Un placer.

I needed to correct the impression from my previous platypus shot that tails were optional! Here you can see the "beaver" tail clearly, but not some of the dangerous sharp bits attached to the hind legs because I don't know if this is a male or female.

After shoving their train into the clear at the west end of the yard in Grand Rapids, the power heads back to the main before changing ends and going to the other end to grab their train for the trip back.
The big Blandin Paper mill which is the reason for this trains existence puts out steam in the distance.
three 30 x 40" panels of rural architectural structures that are supposed to mimick accordian book structuring and travel. i'm still in the process of figuring these babies out. all of that darkness is 4B graphite goodness. and i push hard when i draw and these panels had a bit of a texture so i really had to work the graphite in. woe is me. woe is me.
Went up to Zion in December 2006 after Merrie's foot surgery. This is the time to go if you wish to avoid crowds.
Finall completed with one, two more to go by 2018 Star Wars Days. Now back to Echo Base. Many thanks to some of the awesome builders whose builds I viewed many times to help get my done. Thanks to Peter Brookdales (although his is quite larger), Jhaelon Edwards, which push me to redesign my 10 year old designs and lastly Maciel Szymanshi's beautiful ATAT, which is just soooo awesome!!!
This is my completed Supernova quilt. I call mine a babynova because all of the fabric squares and rectangles were cut at half the original pattern size. The finished quilt measures 26.5" square. It is hand quilted with black perle cotton size 8. This was a wonderfully put together quilt along hosted by the talented Lee of www.freshlypieced.blogspot.com.
NHN's pair of GP38-2's hauls their sixteen car train up the runner this afternoon in a fairly intense snow squall. Trains have been short lately, giving a slightly better chance at shooting the southbound before darkness settles. It would be a straight shot to Dover today, although they did come north with 22 gas and 2 steel cars this morning.
I couldn't really bend in the right way to get a clear picture that I liked, so I will just post the ones that are good, so you can get the "picture".
All I can say, is that this hurt so fucking bad. I have lots of tattoos, and hours upon hours of work, but for whatever reason, yesterday was NOT my day.

I've been living and shooting along the Norfolk Southern Lurgan Branch for six years now and I've shot every regularly scheduled train except for the nocturnal H58. The second trick local originates out of the yard in Shiremanstown on the Shippensburg Secondary and enters the Lurgan at LG 3. The push-pull train works the customers between there and CP Lees Cross Roads and is usually done work by dawn. One late night after work I heard the crew on the radio say they would be working Lane Enterprises, a plastic pipe manufacturer that gets plastic pellets by covered hopper at LG 35. I also heard the eastbound unit was a former Southern Railway high-hood GP38-2 and it would be running long-hood forward, so I knew that night would be the night I'd stay up and cross this train off my list. The moon was rising into a hazy, humid sky at 4AM as the train stopped just east of the Lane siding. The conductor is walking to the head-end after putting the train back together as the engineer charges up the air and gets ready to head back to the yard.

History and heritage
Because classroom space was in short supply, a hall was considered a luxury for Canterbury College. The Great Hall opened to both acclaim and controversy on Diploma Day 1882.
In its early years, it housed the College’s small library and was used for public lectures and formal graduation ceremonies. Over time, the University allowed greater use of the hall for events such as music recitals, student dances and society gatherings. Prior to the earthquakes, the great hall held a wide range of events and performances year-round.
The Great Hall provides a strong reflection of local heritage and culture. It makes rich use of native timbers, with kauri and rimu panelling, along with rewarewa, totara and matai lozenges.
It provides space for memorial plaques and icons, the first of which was dedicated to Helen Connon, the first woman to graduate with honours in the British Empire.
In 1938, a large stained glass window was dedicated to the sacrifices of College students in the First World War. This Memorial Window was rededicated in 2016 after its restoration following the Canterbury earthquakes.
Have tried and tested this concept before as well but could not resist trying it again !!!

Well... That is that, the end. Back in July, I visited Northampton for the first time with the idea of getting a shot of the 86/6s during their crew change on the Coatbridge intermodal service. Four months on, I have managed to get shots of the final 11 86/6s leading 4S88 at Northampton.
Freightliner racing green class 86/6 no. 86608 stands during a crew change at Northampton in multiple with Powerhaul liveried classmate no. 86622 working 4S88 Felixstowe to Coatbridge intermodal on 12th November 2020.
The Class 86 locomotives built upon the Class 81-5 however they included some improved features such as quieter fans.
The locos were initially notorious for causing track damage due to a large amount of unsprung mass however, after modifications which led to the fitting of large flexicoil springs, the problems diminished. The initial class 86/0 subclass was limited to 85 mph due to the track-wear issue, those which were fitted with flexicoil springs were renumbered into the 86/2 series and were 100mph capable. 3 test bed class 87s were numbered 86101-103 and were 110mph locos.
Many locomotives have been exported to operator Floyd in Hungary and are used on freight trains over there.
The 86/7 subclass of two locomotives was 110mph capable however they were withdrawn in early 2013 due to lack of GSMR fitment. After several unsuccessful attempts to find work for 86701 and 86702, both locomotives were exported.
The 86/6 subclass is limited to 75mph and are used on Freightliner trains on a daily basis as working pairs.
From 2015 to 2019, 86101, 86401 and 87002 were hired in by GBRf in order to work ECS moves between London Euston and Wembley ICD for the Caledonian Sleeper. After the arrival of mk5 stock to the Caledonian Sleeper, 87002, 86101 and 86401 came off lease. 86101 and 87002 were sold to Locomotive Services Limited in Crewe and 86401 was sold to the West Coast Railway Company and is currently based at Carnforth.
