321366 000610 Ingatestone
By 2000 the 321's had been operating the Great Eastern main line for 10 years and they had been taken over by First Great Eastern.
Nothing much changed and the 321 still plied their trade between London and the East Anglian towns, holiday resorts and ports.
321366 leaves Ingatestone with an Ipswich to London service on 10th June 2000
As you make your way down into the valley, this is the first view that greets you. It is very similar to Tunnel View, but a few miles back and without the view of the valley floor. However, Half Dome is nicely framed at this spot.

I found my first LadyBug of 2011 today. Here she is, basking in the sun on a frostbitten Viburnum leaf on a rare sunny February 21 afternoon in Oregon.
I was chatting to a lady last Thursday while dancing and she started to talk about a girl on facebook who happens to be trans who does a lot of 1940s hairstyles that everybody follows because of her wardrobe and hair-styling.
The lady then turned and said " At first glance people didn't know you were trans" OMG how does one respond to that? Of course i got all embarrassed lol. Nice to be told that though.
I was somewhat taken aback by how many of the members remembered my name after only one week. Looks like i am being accepted into a new family :-)
Still i looked a bit worn out last week i so need some sunlight

This bus was new to Whitelaws, Stonehouse and latterly with Halton Transport as 68.
Yankee Poodle was about to go through a major transformation... we had to take off so many ticks, shave his coat, give him a bath and make sure he was all good medically.

Made it to Explore #169 Thanks everyone, I really like this one.
Been away for a while, so I was pleased to see the first of the crocus showing it's pretty face in my garden today. Sorry for the lack of comments I will try and catch up if I can! Hope you are all enjoying your VDay!
I was very surprised when I saw them in the forest yesterday :)
Wood violet, sweet violet, common violet or garden violet (Viola odorata) is a species of flowering plant in the viola family, native to Europe and Asia. It has been introduced into North America and Australia. It blooms from March to April. The species can be found near the edges of forests or in clearings; it is also a common "uninvited guest" in shaded lawns or elsewhere in gardens. In herbal medicine violets has been used for a variety of respiratory ailments, insomnia and skin disorders. Flowers are also edible and used as food additives for instance in salad, made into jelly, and candied for decoration. The sweet scent of this flower has popular, particularly in the late Victorian period, so this plant has been used in the production of many cosmetic fragrances and perfumes.

Pierwsze fiołki znalezione wczoraj w lesie. Zaskoczyłam się, że już są :)
Fiołek wonny, fiołek pachnący (Viola odorata) – gatunek rośliny należący do rodziny fiołkowatych. Występuje w stanie dzikim w Europie, w zachodniej Azji i północnej Afryce. W Polsce pospolity na niżu i w niższych położeniach górskich. Uprawiany i często dziczejący. Kwitnie od marca do kwietnia. Zasiedla widne lasy liściaste i ich skraje, zarośla, trawiaste polany, trawniki. Rośnie na stanowiskach półcienistych lub cienistych, na glebie próchniczej, lekko wilgotnej. Jest rośliną leczniczą. Działa wykrztuśnie, napotnie, moczopędnie, odkażająco, żółciopędnie i rozkurczowo. Upłynnia zalegający śluz w drogach oddechowych.

First light of a day…
(The above shot is dedicated to special one who is my inspiration of photography)
67 024 has arrived at Victoria with 1Y44 from Folkestone West in its new VSOE livery. 67 021 is on the rear.
I'd told my girls about photos I'd seen on Flickr where people were floating as if by magic.... they wanted to try one and this is the first attempt.
As I've said before, one of my goals in photographing birds was to get this particular resident species, the Oak Titmouse. (Second on the list was the White-crowned Sparrow in breeding plumage.) My first two cameras didn't have the range for avian photography of any kind ... well, with the first exception when an Oak Titmouse popped up on a newly planted five foot orange tree right in front of me.
Still, I persisted, and I think I have 15 pretty good images of this titmouse. One in particular was my prize and was the first image I hung on my wall. (flic.kr/p/ufUbT1) That's not the reason that I never posted this image. The reason for that was that I wasn't on SmugMug or later Flickr, and so I just printed this, put it in an album, and there it stayed until this morning.
I was in the archives again, and I must say I really like this shot. The way the tail just clears and follows the curve of the piece of rotten oak which was also used as a granary for Acorn Woodpeckers (which is why I was there taking pictures that day in March). More than that, there appeared to me that there was movement in this pose. He actually had just landed, and was already about to take off again. 1/640th was my go to prep speed, and it worked very well here. The light was good, too. And that's why I'm starting off the week for you (I can look at it any time) with one 3 gram Oak titmouse on a Live Oak (that's the name, not the description).
I've described this bird many times. Let's just let it go with this: The Oak titmouse (Baeolophus inornatus) is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. The American Ornithologists' Union split the plain titmouse into the oak titmouse and the juniper titmouse in 1996, due to distinct differences in song, preferred habitat, and genetic makeup. It sleeps in deep cavities, and what better place than a woodpecker hole in an oak or yucca. We are surrounded by thousands of acres of three of the twenty species of oak in California: valley oak, interior live oak, or blue oak. The Valley Oak is the largest oak in the state, and we have 30+ heritage oaks within a quarter mile of my front door. (Heritage oaks are huge, some with canopies 100 feet or more across, 70 feet tall, and with trunks about 25 feet in diameter. How can you tell if one is a "heritage oak?" Easy: every heritage oak is numbered with a metal tag about 8 feet off the ground ... and that's all I'll say. They are also between 200 and 350 years old. And every one has an Oak titmouse in it! I just made that up, but it's where I'd start to photograph these little flitters.)
