New kid on the block, British India Line, digs in to the climb to Aisgill at Waitby, with the second southbound Dalesman charter train of the season, May 8th 2018. The 3 cylinder exhaust beat sounded very crisp, great to hear after all the teething problems!

Jubilee 45690 "Leander" makes a spirited climb to Ais Gill with last nights returning Dalesman. The 3 cylinder roar could be heard long before and after she came into view powering her 12 coach load past Angerholme in lovely early evening sunshine.

taken from my window this little guy digging for worms and the sparrow on watch

This brown bear was digging for ground squirrels.

The chase is on. Two Red Fox kit siblings (Vulpes vulpes) chase in play but they always stay close to the entrance to their den. Image taken in Jackson County, Colorado.

Carré exudes innocence. I'd first met her years ago, through a friend, and that was always (having never really had a conversation with her) the impression that I came away with.

 

But then she joined my stable of models, we had several conversations of increasing depth, and I realized that image of innocence belied a deep reservoir of things far more complex.

 

And I'd like to think that shows from shoot to shoot, that each time we shoot I get closer and closer to some core truths about her in my photographs.

 

Which is probably why I enjoy photographing her so much, because every time I do, there's this intent of scratching away at the surface, to get to know her better, to display something more significant in the images.

 

As they once said in The State, I seek knowledge, and its bastard son, Truth.

 

Shot of Carré grinning (probably because I am hysterical) up at the blog: blog.louobedlam.com/post/60111487/as-you-may-or-may-not-k...

Today is my birthday and to say I'm unwell is a bit of an understatement. I have 2 of the children home ill as well as an ill husband. So thought I would have a little look through my archives and this is what I found. I hope you all like it x

A digging nuthatch skeptically looking at me and my camera.

 

Taken with a Sony A-6500 (Sony ILCE-6500) and SEL-100400GM as RAW. Converted to JPEG with LR 6.

Right.

 

Had a bit of shoveling to do.

 

At 06:36 am.

 

- 11 C / 12 F.

mileage 23

because my tire and odometer are being changed, I will be back to '0' on the next ride so remember this number, 87. I'll call this the pre-season and tack that mileage on at the end of the season.

But until it warms up again, I'll be picking up sticks.

Life in Minnesota after a foot of snow.

I like to watch the gulls hunting for crabs.

The do this funny shuffling like dance until the feel the crab in the sand and then dig it out with their beak.

This guy found himself a nice little blue crab.

 

never sure which gulls are which! ID somebody??

Please help identify this lovely bird. It's not that small, about the size of a pigeon....

 

With a bit of "digging" on my part, it could be a female Northern flicker.

Mistle Thrush foraging on grassed areas adjacent to Killingworth Lake.

Sometimes Polar Bears will pound and dig at the hard snow to get at roots or voles for some dietary supplements before they head to the mouth of the Churchill River for seal hunting.

Digging up some old 35mm shots from the time I lived in NY. This one was taken around October 2001 with my first camera, a vintage Pentax K1000. The white stain in the middle is due to the residual dust from September 11. The last glow of the World Trade Center.

Nagarkot , Nepal! It was chilly morning. Went for a walk in Nagarkot, I wish I had take many more photos.

If some racers wander off the beaten path they can end up in the soft dirt. And this can happen. (DSC_4152.jpg)

Kate gets to work in the digger to prepare the ground ready for the foundations

With Kevin Rose, founder of Digg, and Nathan Myhrvold (former CTO of Microsoft). The founders of Google and Twitter were to my right for this TED Braintrust lunch.

 

An usual confluence of invitations had me dining with Gates for lunch and dinner on the same day (coincidentally, philosopher-king Daniel Dennett was also at both meals).

 

After we sat down, Gates lamented the setback from the Muslim clerics who preached that polio vaccines made the girls infertile: "The anti-vaccine movement has killed many people. It's frustrating. But we are working with the clerics. It is very hierarchical, so we can start at the top. In the next three years, we will either conquer polio, or we won't. It's a very important time."
