The train is the 14 car 'off season' configuration that will be typical until the tourist season kicks off again in the springtime. Most of the leaves on the deciduous trees have departed their branches for the season also. Soon, this eastbound streamliner will be traveling after dark through this part of it's route. It was nice to have a clear enough evening to show off the stainless steel Budd cars in the last light of the day one more time before winter.

HISTORY — TWO CENTURIES OF PUBLIC LIFE
Standing prominently on South Clerk Street, The Queen’s Hall is one of Edinburgh’s most significant examples of the successful adaptation of a historic ecclesiastical building for modern cultural use.
Its origins lie in the rapid expansion of Edinburgh’s southern suburbs during the early nineteenth century. As the population of Newington and the surrounding districts increased, additional accommodation for public worship became necessary.
The building was commissioned as Hope Park Chapel of Ease, designed by Edinburgh architect Robert Brown, with construction beginning in 1823 and the chapel opening in 1824.
It was originally associated with St Cuthbert’s parish and provided worship accommodation for approximately 1,700 people — an indication of the scale of Edinburgh’s expanding population.
In 1834 the chapel became Newington Parish Church, acquiring a more independent ecclesiastical identity.
Following the union of congregations in the twentieth century, it became Newington and St Leonard’s Parish Church in 1932.
For more than 150 years, the building served successive generations of worshippers, until the congregation was dissolved and the church closed in 1976.
THE TRANSFORMATION INTO A CONCERT HALL
The church’s closure coincided with a growing need for suitable rehearsal and performance facilities among Edinburgh’s professional musical organisations.
The Scottish Baroque Ensemble, Scottish Philharmonic Singers and the recently established Scottish Chamber Orchestra were among those seeking a permanent or regular performance base.
The former church offered an unusually promising opportunity. Its generous internal volume, galleries and favourable acoustic properties made it particularly suitable for orchestral and chamber music.
A fundraising appeal was launched in 1977, ultimately raising approximately ÂŁ850,000 for the conversion.
The architectural work was undertaken in 1978–79 by Robert Hurd & Partners, with Larry Rolland responsible for the adaptation.
The project retained the building’s essential Georgian architectural character while introducing the facilities necessary for a modern concert venue.
The Queen’s Hall was officially opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 6 July 1979, giving the building its present name.
It subsequently became particularly associated with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and established itself as an important venue in Edinburgh’s year-round musical and festival programmes.
ARCHITECTURE — GEORGIAN CLASSICISM
The exterior is an impressive example of restrained Scottish Neoclassical architecture.
Unlike the elaborate Gothic Revival churches that became fashionable later in the nineteenth century, Robert Brown’s design draws upon the classical vocabulary of symmetry, proportion and architectural order.
The principal elevation facing South Clerk Street is constructed in dressed sandstone and arranged as a broad, symmetrical composition.
Its architectural features include:
* A central projecting pedimented section, establishing the principal axis of the building.
* A carefully ordered arrangement of tall, round-headed windows.
* Pilasters and strongly expressed horizontal stringcourses dividing the façade.
* A restrained classical entablature and parapet.
* A series of ground-floor entrance openings beneath the principal windows.
* A prominent central clock tower rising above the roofline.
The tower is the building’s most conspicuous architectural feature.
Its substantial lower stages rise into an open, columned belfry surmounted by a slender, metal-clad spire and finial.
The combination of a classical church façade and a tall steeple is characteristic of Scottish ecclesiastical architecture of the Georgian period, blending the architectural language of the classical temple with the traditional visual prominence of a parish church.
The tower also provides an important vertical landmark in the densely developed streetscape of Edinburgh’s Southside.
Although the building has undergone alterations and adaptation, its external architectural identity remains remarkably legible.
INTERIOR AND ACOUSTICS
The auditorium retains the essential spatial character of the former church.
Rather than a conventional theatre with a proscenium arch, fly tower and backstage scenery facilities, The Queen’s Hall is principally an open concert auditorium arranged around a performance platform.
The original ecclesiastical proportions contribute significantly to its character.
Its relatively intimate relationship between performers and audience is particularly appropriate for chamber orchestras, solo recitals, vocal performances and smaller musical ensembles.
The galleries, high ceiling and enclosed volume create a distinctive acoustic environment.
The building is widely admired for its clarity, warmth and natural resonance, qualities particularly valued in performances of classical and acoustic music.
Importantly, the conversion did not attempt to disguise the building’s ecclesiastical origins.
Historic decorative elements survive, including painted eighteenth-century religious panels depicting the Lord’s Prayer, Creed and Ten Commandments, transferred from the former Buccleuch Parish Church during the twentieth century.
An early nineteenth-century chamber organ, associated with the organ builder William Gray, also forms part of the hall’s musical and architectural heritage.
The result is an interior that retains the atmosphere of a historic place of worship while functioning as a concert venue.
TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The Queen’s Hall is a flexible performance space rather than a purpose-built opera house or conventional theatrical auditorium.
Its principal technical characteristics include:
Audience capacity: A maximum of approximately 800 seated, depending on sightlines and seating arrangement, or 900 standing.
Auditorium configuration: Adaptable for formal concert seating, standing events and cabaret-style arrangements.
Performance area: An open platform suitable for orchestras, chamber ensembles, soloists, amplified groups and spoken-word presentations.
Acoustics: A naturally resonant auditorium particularly suited to unamplified music, supported by professional sound reinforcement for amplified performances.
Lighting and sound: Modern concert lighting and audio systems allow the venue to accommodate a wide variety of musical and other performances.
Architectural limitations: As an adapted Georgian church, the building does not possess the conventional stage machinery, extensive wing space or fly facilities associated with a purpose-built theatre.
These characteristics have helped establish The Queen’s Hall as a versatile venue without sacrificing its historic architectural identity.
THE QUEEN’S HALL AND EDINBURGH’S FESTIVALS
Since 1979, The Queen’s Hall has played an important role in Edinburgh’s cultural life.
It is especially associated with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra, while its programme embraces classical music, jazz, folk, traditional Scottish music, contemporary music, rock, comedy and spoken word.
The venue also contributes to the Edinburgh International Festival, Edinburgh Festival Fringe and Edinburgh Jazz & Blues Festival.
Its comparatively intimate scale offers an alternative to Edinburgh’s larger performance venues, including the Usher Hall and Festival Theatre.
Among the internationally recognised performers who have appeared at The Queen’s Hall are Nina Simone, Nick Cave and Adele.
The building celebrated forty years as a concert hall in 2019, followed by celebrations marking its bicentenary in 2023–24.
ARCHITECTURAL AND CULTURAL SIGNIFICANCE
The Queen’s Hall is protected as a Category A listed building, having been designated on 14 December 1970, before its conversion to musical use.
Its importance lies in two complementary aspects of Edinburgh’s history.
Architecturally, it represents the expansion of Georgian Edinburgh beyond the Old Town and New Town into the developing residential districts of the Southside.
Culturally, its conversion demonstrates how an important historic building can be given a sustainable new purpose without losing the architectural qualities that make it significant.
The transformation from a nineteenth-century chapel into a twentieth-century concert hall was not merely an exercise in preservation. It created a new cultural institution while retaining the historic fabric of an established Edinburgh landmark.
More than two centuries after its construction, the building continues to bring people together — originally for religious worship and now principally for music and performance.

The 1957 Chevrolet pickup truck is one of the most iconic American classic trucks ever produced. Part of Chevrolet's legendary Task Force Series (produced from 1955 to 1959), the 1957 model is highly sought after by collectors, hot-rodders, and vintage enthusiasts alike. Often called an Apache, Chevrolet didn't start badging them as such until 1958.
Features a bold open-grille design with distinctive dual headlights and an integrated bumper. Distinctive dual spears on the hood house the turn signals, mimicking the look of the popular 1957 Chevy Bel Air sedan.
The windshield is a dramatic, panoramic wraparound glass design. The bed is built with a classic wooden plank floor lined with steel dividing strips.
It was available in standard small-window or highly prized "Big Back Window" panoramic configurations.

Le site des dunes de Tadoussac offre une configuration idéale pour l'observation de la migration des oiseaux. En raison de la largeur du fleuve Saint-Laurent, les oiseaux ne se risquent pas à le traverser à cet endroit. Il se crée des couloirs de vents favorables compte tenu de la configuration particulière du fleuve avec le Saguenay et son fjord, Le site des dunes est dégagé et offre à l'observateur un point de vue unique. On voit les oiseaux de proie arriver par-dessus la montagne, quand on regarde vers l'est-nord-est. Un premier couloir passe côté fleuve, à main droite, et on y voit souvent les oiseaux glisser le long de la dune avant de remonter. L'autre corridor passe plutôt côté terre, à main gauche. Ils suivent ensuite le fleuve jusqu'à ce que ce leur soit facile de le franchir, à partir de Québec et plus au sud. Ces temps-ci, un ornithologue professionnel fait le décompte des migrateurs. Sa connaissance des oiseaux est formidable. Il identifie les espèces à distance à leur silhouette et à leur vol. Il peut facilement statuer sur leur âge. Grâce à lui nous avons observé de nombreuses espèces qui nous auraient échappé.
Il y avait activité de baguage des passereaux, le jour, et des nyctales, la nuit, au pavillon des dunes. L'observatoire des oiseaux de Tadoussac, l'OOT, organisait et gérait tout ça.
The Tadoussac Dunes site offers an ideal setting for observing bird migration. Because of the width of the St. Lawrence River, birds do not risk crossing it at this point. Corridors of favorable winds are created given the particular configuration of the river with the Saguenay and its fjord. The site of the dunes is clear and offers the observer a unique point of view. We see the birds of prey coming over the mountain, when we look to the east-northeast. A first corridor passes on the river side, to the right, and we often see the birds gliding along the dune before going up. The other corridor passes rather on the land side, to the left. They then follow the river until it is easy for them to cross it, starting from Quebec and further south. These days, a professional ornithologist is counting the migrants. His knowledge of birds is tremendous. He identifies species at a distance by their silhouette and flight. He can easily decide on their age. Thanks to him we observed many species that would have escaped us.
There was banding activity for passerines during the day and owls at night at the pavilion des dunes. The Tadoussac bird observatory, the OOT, organized and managed all of this.

Captain Davie described the configuration of the great banking room. "Before conversion, three sets of four teller stations were placed between the square pillars on the right side. Each station included the main parts of classical architecture in reduced size, the horizontal entablature resting on the two vertical columns and consisting of cornice, frieze, and architrave. Strong structures supported a bronze hinged wicket at each of the 16 positions. Some of these groupings have been rearranged to accommodate hotel design requirements."
Although the use of the San Diego Trust & Savings Bank building changed ten years ago, from a bank and offices to a hotel with 245 guest rooms, the original features of the structure remain remarkably intact. The Courtyard-Marriott Hotel, located in the heart of a vibrant downtown San Diego, is a spectacular example of successful readapted use. The hotel stands proud in the bank's place, as the sentinel of an important piece of San Diego history.

1953 Kaiser Manhattan
In 1951, Frazer debuted a new design that would continue until the company’s end of U.S. passenger car production in 1955. Designed by Howard “Dutch” Darrin, the cars were longer, lower, and swoopier. The top-of-the-line Manhattan cost just over $3,000, and fewer than 300 were produced in all.
For 1952, the Manhattan name was shifted to the Kaiser nameplate, and the car received a markedly different exterior that was consistent with the rest of the brand. Most notably, a pronounced dip adorned the center of the windshield and rear glass, and the grille had a simple top bar that curved around the front fenders. For this model year, body style choices were greatly revised, as the convertible model was removed, a club coupe and a two-door sedan were added, and Traveler configurations could be ordered. List prices dropped considerably, and production numbers were much higher.
The 1953 model year was mostly the same, though the Manhattan could be ordered with “Bambu” interior, and body choices were limited to a two-door club sedan, and four-door sedan, and a Traveler sedan. For 1954, Darrin redesigned the Manhattan’s grille in a new “jet air-scoop” design, supposedly borrowed from the Buick XP-300 show car. More importantly a McCulloch supercharger became standard on the Manhattan’s old flathead six, which boosted output to 140 hp. Even so, sales dropped to 4,325 Manhattans.
By 1955, it was all over. Only 1,231 supercharged Manhattans were built that year, with 1,021 being sent to Argentina. The tooling was sent down to Buenos Aires and the Kaiser Manhattans continued to be sold in South America until 1962 as the Carabella.
Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sint_Servaasbrug:
Sint Servaasbrug (or the St. Servatius Bridge) is an arched stone cyclist and pedestrian bridge across the river Meuse in Maastricht, Netherlands. It is named after Saint Servatius, the first bishop of Maastricht, and (despite being largely rebuilt after World War II) it has been called the oldest bridge in the Netherlands.
The Sint Servaasbrug connects pedestrian traffic from the Binnenstad district of Maastricht on the west bank of the Meuse (the most central part of the city) to the Wyck district on the east bank.
The bridge is made of limestone, and in its current configuration it is 160 metres (525 ft) long and 9 metres (30 ft) wide. Its seven arches each span approximately 12 metres (39 ft), and are supported by seven piers. A separate steel drawbridge with a span of 54.5 metres (178 ft 10 in) connects the east end of the bridge to the east bank of the river.

So this is the picture that I've really wanted to take for the past few weeks, and I finally got everything lined up for it!
The vehicle is the same base as my previous picture, but in what I want to call the "Sentinel" configuration with the back changed out for a more armored module and a computer-assisted rocket launcher and machine gun combo on top so multiples of these can pretty much set up in a defensive position and hold their own against the enemy laying down some serious cover fire and firing off four rockets at a time. The rockets can be reloaded manually through the back.
A robin in our back garden landing on the fork Rachel wasn't at that point using. This is not a Photoshop job!! (Well, beyond a crop, levels, slight sharpen.) I just happened to have the macro lens (f=105mm) on the camera, which helped.
I just finished reading Kristin Cashore's new book, "Bitterblue", and found it entertaining and thoughtful, with a wide range of interesting characters. This quote stuck with me. It's taken from a scene in which the Queen (Bitterblue), sits down to dinner with a few others, and on her mind is the topic of Po and Katsa's relationship, turbulent as it may be.
Bitterblue stabbed a mystery pie across the table with her fork and was delighted when it turned out to be made of winter squash. She pushed her plate closer and shoveled herself a generous portion. "It's just that while I'm sure I would like the making up, I don't think I have the heart for constant fighting," she said. "I think I might prefer something--more peaceful in execution."
Giddon cracked a grin. "They do give the impression that no one else has nearly as much fun making up."
"But people do, you know," said Bann, perhaps a bit slyly. "I wouldn't worry about them, Lady Queen, and I wouldn't worry about what it means. Every configuration of people is an entirely new universe unto itself."
Wise words, I think. Anyway, here's a scene from a recent hike up Silver Star Mountain... the light? Was incredible at this particular point in the trail. And I couldn't stop swooning over the wildflowers.

Artist’s impression of the BepiColombo spacecraft in cruise configuration, flying past Earth and with the Sun in the background. After launch, BepiColombo will return to Earth two years later to make a gravity-assist flyby, before flying by Venus twice and Mercury six times before entering orbit around the innermost planet.
In this view, the Mercury Transfer Module is at the rear, with its solar wings extended, spanning about 30 m from tip-to-tip. Because the arrays are tilted towards the Sun, the underside of the panels can be seen. The 7.5 m-long solar array of the Mercury Planetary Orbiter in the middle is seen extending to the top, with the high-gain antenna dish to the left, and the magnetometer boom and medium gain antenna to the right. The Mercury Magnetospheric Orbiter sits inside the sunshield, its antenna folded inside and visible in this view.
BepiColombo is a joint endeavour between ESA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, JAXA.
