Sky Walk Bridge at Dublin Airport on a cold winter day.
The day was ending and the shadows from the bridge was covering the ground in darkness
An Anna's Hummingbird at our feeding station. Caught the light right for a change which brought out the iridescence to come through.
Seen in North Morro Bay, ca.
Anderson Cooper visited Wolfson Children's Hospital. One of the most interesting celebrities that I have covered.

Onsite Hydraulic Repair, 24/7 UK coverage. Each van is professionally kitted out with the appropriate tools for removal, manufacture and refitting of hydraulic hose assemblies accompanied by stock to ensure that 99% of jos are carried out there and then.
The trouble with getting coverage every day for 5 weeks straight is that you end up with quite a backlog of photos to edit. I've slowly started getting around to editing my shots of Japan & this one had been in the back of my mind since I landed back in Australia.
On the Chichibu Railway, a DeKi 500 locomotive is seen crawling across the famous Arakawa River bridge working empty limestone train #7305 from the Taiheiyo Cement plant in Kumagaya to the mine in Kagemori.
After spending 3 weeks solo in Taiwan & Korea it was a welcome change to be joined by two good friends from back home (also railfans), in the process I somehow doubled up as a tour guide & a translator despite only knowing about 4 sentences in Japanese.
I didn't have much of a plan this time around, the main thing I came back for was the EF64s on the Hakubi line, anything else that was seen would be considered a bonus. Safe to say our trip got off to a very rough start. After convening in Narita we drove up to Chichibu to shoot some limestone trains, everything was looking promising with 2 spotless days forecast. Only problem was, the trains weren't running. After spending the morning hoping one would turn up we went to a few stations to ask the staff if they knew anything about the limestone trains running. Sadly they had been suspended for the weekend.
We made our way to Fuji the next day & got our EF210 fix. Next on the hitlist was the Sangi Railway, surely that would be running right? No. We spent the afternoon sat at Nyugawa waiting for something to turn up. Having seen nothing, we went to the station & the guys asked the station master if any cement trains were running. He made a few phone calls & told us that nothing was running for the next few days. Safe to say things were looking bleak.
From the next day onwards we finally started seeing results, the Hakubi line certainly didn't disappoint & when we went back to Chichibu for the second time we were pleased to find the limestone trains were running.
It was certainly a rollercoaster of a trip. With about 4000km of driving, god knows how many litres of Sake & Strong Zero's consumed, it was a fantastic time. I look forward to coming back to Japan again in the near future.

The coverage of 16mm can include your toes and maybe shows too much of some subjects. Here Toe Free is a mainly quiet just off the roadside evening scene. Without added LED illumination from a none photographic light there would be less to see, less contrast, less colour and less shadow realm within the hedgerow, the mainly quiet just off the roadside almost hedgerow.
These flowers are blooming on track off the roadside. They are a part of an ad hoc hedgerow. They have sprung up where they stand. It is fortunate that they have had a chance to rise and to fulfil nature that adapts and adopts wherever it can taking every opportunity and each chance to enhance the world that we share for the better for all of us.

This Mazda RX7 is one of the most amazing cars I have ever photographed. The Lamborghini paint was so vivid, the motor sounded amazing, and the car looks so streamlined and aggressive! I'm definitely very excited to share this with you guys!
The car belongs to Brent Villareal, the marketing director for TunerLifeStyleTV.com - an awesome online magazine. Definitely give it a look if you haven't seen it. www.TunerLifeStyleTV.com
The photoshoot was done late in the evening, we were quite short on time so I did the best I could and improvised where necessary due to a lack of equipment. Most of my good lightstands, my umbrellas, and a few other things were not with me at the time. Pardon the dull backgrounds, we didn't have alot of time to venture out and try different settings.
Brent is definitely interested in being covered in D-Sport magazine, hopefully with these photos I'll be able to grab someones attention over there and shoot again when the car is finished (soon).
Before I forget, check it out - TunerLifeStyleTV's Video Coverage of the RB7!

in 1966, at independence, botswana was the second poorest country in the world. perhaps that is why it was not fought over by the colonial powers. since independence, the discovery of diamonds changed the economics of the country. the government actually used diamond revenues to invest in health and education. every citizen has health care coverage, private insurances compete with the national service.
tomorrow, june 25, a major rally will be held in washington dc, by the national physician's alliance (a group that emerged out of a student organization so that physicians for whom patient advocacy was a core value, could have a voice). the us struggles to provide health coverage to all. the american medical association has once again shown its venal nature by opposing any national health plan as an option on the table.
Animal overpopulation in the East End is a major problem, slowly but surely we are getting support from the media in addressing the importance of Spay/Neuter.
