It wasn't the most spectacular of sunrises, but I have seen far worse. And the longer I look at this shot the more I like it. ;-)
When we came home Saturday afternoon and I opened my shots on the computer I didn't like a single one. Now three days later I at least like one.
Street shooting in Liverpool, NSW a few weeks ago. This "extra chatty" old man was obviously making this woman uncomfortable so I thought I'd see his reaction if I took a photo. Needless to say he was not impressed when he noticed me about to click the shutter. I told him I was taking a photo of that cool looking trolley of capsicum.
Shot with the old Rebel EOS with 40mm panake lens and Fujifilm Xtra 400 for the extra chatty old man!

A little later, CSX CP w/b run-through #201 on July 4, 1987 at Plymouth, MI. American flags would have been a nice touch here, but would not have satisfied the rule book.

This is how I keep and sort all of the extra LEGO heads I have not currently being used for another purpose. I put all similar heads together and have a stick in the middle of the wheel so I can spin it around and look at all of the heads on the other side. It's a pretty nice thing for quickly locating a head I want.
When your craving something and the bakery doesn't have what you want.. the twins have created some tasty cravings but when you cant find it you think youll go crazy with out it.

...are needed during a heat wave! Plus, extra cooling measures are needed. I tried to keep The Girls cool by misting them, and applying a cold damp cloth to the inside of their ears. Trying to keep Anise in the shade at 3 in the afternoon was difficult because she wanted to go out for her 'walk' at walk time. When it's 40 degrees outside I put my foot down and cancel the 'walk'. However, without a 'walk' she'll squawk ~ ha ~ unless her mouth is full! Thankfully, today it's only going up to 27 C. Yesterday in our province of British Columbia a town called Lytton broke a record for Canada and reached 49.5 C ~ OUCH ~ that's HOT for our parts!!!
Certainly not the best photo, but there's a bit of a story behind this one.
In summer 2012 we attended the air show at Avord, but this event was below par, partly because that year, the higher powers decided that only French aircraft would be present.
I don't think we bothered with a flying programme but had to leave just before 5pm in order to get back to Paris at a reasonable hour. But we had only been back on the open road for a few minutes when this formation came into view - two Mirage 2000s in formation with a KC-135 tanker.
The KC-135 is one of three additional aircraft acquired from the US in 1994, these receiving extensive updates before arriving in France. The one in my photo is 525, derived from its US serial of 62-3525.

The Downeaster's Saturday evening Portland Extra was "cancelled" due to a lack of equipment (in particular, Amfleets) needed to build a consist capable of traveling at track speed on the Main. The assigned crew instead attached their engine (P42 no. 93) to the back of Train 698 and piggybacked their way to North Station. They then embarked on a crosstown move, picked up a new Amfleet coach from South Station, and zipped their way back to Portland.
In perfect light, we see 698 barreling towards Winnocks Neck Road on the Scarborough Marsh. Phase VI P42 no. 108 can be seen nose to nose with the 93 at the back of the consist.
If you really want to have some fun and while away some hours, this is what you do. Get a stick of some sort and drill a hole in it. That's where you put your water dropper . . . Are you with me so far? Place that over a clear pan filled with water over colored paper.
Then with one hand (it's takes some coordination here) you start dripping water from the water dropper, and with the other hand you are snapping pictures. That's as technical as I'm going to get, but believe me, it's very addictive.
This was one of my favorites because it looks like a little lotus to me. . .
“When a dog bites…… “. Well, in this case, it would be one of my favorite things to see a bat dog picking up the bats. Watching the Myrtle Beach Pelicans win in extra innings 13-12 against the the Charleston River Dogs.
Go North East's Chester-le-Street based "Northern" branded Volvo B7TL/East Lancs Vyking 3983 (PJ02 PZL) is pictured here at the company's Chester-le-Street Depot. 17/10/15
Acquired by Go North East in 2009 having previously been in the fleet of Go-Ahead London General as fleet number EVL52, Chester-le-Street Depot is allocated just one dual-door East Lancs Vyking bodied Volvo B7TL, in the form of 3983 (PJ02 PZL).
On weekdays, this vehicle is primarily allocated to scholars and Nexus Miscellaneous Works contracts. On a morning, this vehicle should be allocated to the peak-time morning extra X21 journey which operates between Spennymoor and Framwellgate Moor, and on an afternoon, it should work the extra X22 journey from Metrocentre to Durham, which additionally calls at Team Valley, after working two scholars services. It regularly crops up on other services, too, with other double-deckers deputising for it on the aforementioned running board.
Chester-le-Street operates a peak-time X1 service, departing Newcastle at 17:08, which 3983 (PJ02 PZL) shows the destination display programmed above. Introduced to Chester-le-Street from 31st August 2015 with a Dennis Trident allocation (interworking with Park View Scholars service 887), this working is set to return to Washington Depot from 26th October 2015, where it will instead interwork with Park View scholars 885, with a Volvo B7TL allocation.
