It was nice and cloudy yesterday, took Heliot out for some photos. He is wearing the Volks SD17 Steampunk set from the Kyoto 9 Dolpa. The colors and textures of the outfit are beautiful.
Engineer's station on the lower deck of the 1912-built wooden Sydney Harbour ferry Lady Denman. It was from this position that the engineer operated Lady Denman's 1950s-vintage four-cylinder Crossley diesel engine - directed by commands given from the wheelhouse via the polished brass engine room telegraph visible at top left of this photo.
For those who were there back in the day, the sound of compressed air starting this vintage engine as the engineer turned the two big wheels was distinctive and memorable, as was the sound of the engine itself and the smell of diesel. The large cylinder heads atop the engine were visible to kids both little and big who took the time and interest to lean over the wooden balustrade and look down into the engine room.
Constructed before the First World War as a coal-burning steam ferry, his veteran vessel was finally retired from service in 1979 after a career spanning 67 years of operation on Sydney Harbour. She will be well-remember by commuters and residents from Mosman, Cremorne Point, Neutral Bay, Greenwich, Hunters Hill, Balmain and Birchgrove where she operated regularly and reliably for many many years until the end of the 1970s.
She is shown in this image laid up at Balmain Maintenance Depot in June 1979 immediately following her withdrawal from service. She had been replaced by the newly-constructed steel vessel Lady Street - which had just been delivered by her builders (the old NSW State Dockyard in Newcastle) and which was also tied up @ Balmain Yard at the time of this photo.
Remarkably and wonderfully, Lady Denman survives to this day and can be seen at the Jervis Bay Maritime Museum at Huskisson on the NSW South Coast. She is the last of the many dozens traditional large wooden-hulled Sydney ferries that is still in existence in 2020.

The opportunity to spend a little lineside time was presented when I was invited for my vaccination 30+ miles from home at Askham Bar Park and ride, York. And an interesting and varied couple of hours it was with Classes 57, 60, 66 and 88 represented. The DB drivers seemed to be happy to see some lineside interest with cheery waves and lots of tones.

St. Michael's Castle (Russian: Михайловский замок, Mikhailovsky zamok), also called the Mikhailovsky Castle or the Engineers Castle (Russian: Инженерный замок, Inzhenerny zamok), is a former royal residence in the historic centre of Saint Petersburg, Russia. St. Michael's Castle was built as a residence for Emperor Paul I by architects Vincenzo Brenna and Vasili Bazhenov in 1797-1801. The castle looks different from each side, as the architects used the motifs of various architectural styles such as French Classicism, Italian Renaissance and Gothic.
St. Michael's Castle was built to the south of the Summer Garden and replaced a small wooden palace of Empress Elizabeth Petrovna. Afraid of intrigues and assassination plots, Emperor Paul I didn't like the Winter Palace where he never felt safe. Due to his personal interest in Medieval knights and his constant fear of assassination, the new royal residence was built like a castle with rounded corners in which a small octagonal courtyard is located. The castle was surrounded by the waters of the Moika River, the Fontanka River and two specially dug canals (the Church Canal and the Sunday Canal), transforming the castle area into an artificial island which could only be reached by drawbridges.
Construction began on 26 February (N.S. 9 March), 1797 and the castle was solemnly consecrated on 8 November 1800, i.e. on St. Michael's Day according to the Eastern Orthodoxy, though works on its internal furnishing proceeded until March 1801. In 1800, the bronze equestrian Monument to Peter the Great was erected in front of the castle. The equestrian statue had been designed during Peter the Great's lifetime and later, with the casting completed in 1747 by architect Bartolomeo Rastrelli. By order of Paul I, the inscription "From Great Grandson to Great Grandfather" was made on the pedestal that is decorated with bas-reliefs depicting scenes of two Russian victories over Sweden during the Great Northern War.
Ironically, Paul I was assassinated only 40 nights after he moved into his newly built castle. He was murdered on 12 March 1801, in his own bedroom, by a group of dismissed officers headed by General Bennigsen. The conspirators forced him to a table, and tried to compel him to sign his abdication. Paul offered some resistance, and one of the assassins struck him with a sword, and he was then strangled and trampled to death. He was succeeded by his son, the Emperor Alexander I, who was actually in the palace, and to whom general Nicholas Zubov, one of the assassins, announced his accession.
After Paul's death, the imperial family returned to the Winter Palace; St. Michael's Castle was abandoned and in 1819 was given to the army's Main Engineering School (later to become the Nikolayevskaya Engineering Academy). Since then the building has been called the Engineer Castle. Between 1838 and 1843, the Russian writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky studied as a cadet at the Main Engineering School.
In the early 1990s, St. Michael's Castle became a branch of the Russian Museum and now houses its Portrait Gallery, featuring official portraits of the Russian Emperors and Empresses and various dignitaries and celebrities from the late 17th to the early 20th century.

This time I switched my position 90 degrees from the last shot posted to work on Engineer's south face with is the most well know mountain face in the San Juans. I have struggled to catch a good sunset with the cliff face saturated so I was happy.
There was a rain shower in the distance near Silverton which was more like a sunset shower with its redish illuminated glow.
