Buxton set BX494 formed of a pair of Derby built Class 108 power cars stabled on the centre roads at the station on 1 August 1987 a further 108 power car and a Rail Blue centre coach stand to the rear along with one of the two Independent Snowploughs that always seemed to be resident here. Having looked at the photo again I did notice the lack of a windscreen wiper on the 108 so I'm guessing it wasn't a runner.
Nacreous clouds form in the lower stratosphere over polar regions when the Sun is just below the horizon. The clouds are illuminated from below and often glow in vivid colours. Nacreous clouds form in the lower stratosphere over polar regions when the Sun is just below the horizon. The ice particles that form nacreous clouds are much smaller than those that form more common clouds. These smaller particles scatter light in a different way, which is what creates the distinctive luminescent appearance.
Due to their high altitude and the curvature of the Earth’s surface, these clouds are lit up by sunlight from below the horizon and reflect it to the ground, shining brightly well before dawn and after dusk. They are most likely to be viewed when the Sun is between 1º and 6º below the horizon and in places with higher latitudes, such as Scandinavia and northern Canada. For this reason, they are sometimes known as polar stratospheric clouds. Nacreous clouds only form below -78 °C so are most likely to occur during the polar winter.
Because of the very low temperatures required, nacreous clouds are usually only visible from the UK when the cold air which circulates around polar regions in the stratosphere (known as the stratospheric polar vortex) is displaced and hovers temporarily over the UK. Source, UK Met office
One of the purest form on the planet earth is found here in the vastness of Greenland .there are still great stretches of coast which have never yet been approached by a surface vessel . This is a photo from Rypefjord East Greenland , and our schooner below .Aerail capture from an old drone in terms of quality with today . The scale of wilderness of Greenland is difficult to comprehend. ‘there’s nothing for miles and miles but miles and miles.”Rassmunsen was the only explorer to believe that the traverse has to be done from the East, across the Northwest Passage by dog sled. The Greenlandic anthropologist , together with his two crew mates, a woman called Arnarulunguak and a young man called Qaavigarsuak, left Greenland in 1921 on his fifth and by far the most ambitious Thule expedition. It was a three years dog sledding expedition across Arctic Canada and Alaska to Eastern Siberia. A big thank you to everyone who took time to comment and take a look at my photo. Much appreciated!
trying to get myself back into shooting film. unfortunately everything on this roll was underexposed but still beautiful environments

Tall trees form a light forest canopy at Pinery Provincial Park in Ontario, Canada.
Pinery Provincial Park was initially reforested with red and white pine trees giving the park its name. However, the area is not naturally a pine forest; the natural ecology is a very rare oak savanna. Only later was the true value of the natural ecology recognized, and the health of the oak savanna is now promoted.

A hybrid pairing of 53242/53844 make up Tyseley set T032. The train was the 11.03 Birmingham to Great Malvern, it is passing the doomed Rowley Regis signal box, which was a lovely little GWR standard box.
The track gang are taking out the connection into the yard which had closed. The line, which is still in occasional use, forms one of two goods loops at Rowley Regis. Behind the train on the horizon is a blast furnace which must be in the Langley Green area?

Taken this very evening at a fantastic Christmas market that I visited with friends. We bought beautiful handmade gifts & some yummy Indian food to take back to eat at their house; my first time trying dosa. For Saturday Self Challenge theme “light”.
76/100 : My 100x photos this year will all feature benches or chairs.
In this photograph, art becomes an experience, a silent dialogue between the observer and the work. My lens sought to capture not only the displayed objects, but also the atmosphere and the relationship that is created between people and the forms that surround them.
At the center of the scene, the spiral abstract sculpture creates a sense of movement and mystery, inviting the gaze to follow its sinuous lines. To the left, the black and white portrait observes the scene with a timeless intensity.
But the most fascinating element is the figure, seen from behind, contemplating another work, creating a bridge between the external world and the world of art. Its presence is proof that beauty is not only in the works themselves, but also in the eyes of those who observe them. It is a scene that celebrates contemplation, emotion, and the eternal dialogue between humanity and its creativity.
Die gewundene Form der Pilzfruchtkörper erinnert an einen Tanz, den diese Winterhelmlinge im kahlen Winterwald aufführen. Um dennoch einen attraktiven Hintergrund zu bekommen probierte ich eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Perspektiven aus, von denen mir diese als die gelungenste erschien.
The twisted shape of the mushroom fruiting bodies is reminiscent of a dance that these winter hornets perform in the bare winter forest. In order to still get an attractive background, I tried out a variety of different perspectives, of which this seemed to be the most successful.
Excerpt from the plaque:
From Line to Form
Brian Donnelly began his artistic journey at the age of 12 with graffiti – a style of art that breaks convention. He began tagging the streets of his hometown, Jersey City, eventually branching out to Lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. This was the formative period when he developed his artist persona KAWS and several of his signature motifs. In 1993 he enrolled in Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts, where he received technical training. This salon-style hang of works reveals his love of drawing and his dedication to refining his skill.
KAWS’s time as a graffiti artist was foundational to what would become the ethos of his current practice: claiming public spaces, communicating with broad audiences, and self-promotion through creating.
I made a new LoH team today! I’ve been playing a bit of Terraria lately and I discovered that, in game, there are three forms of combat: magic, melee, and ranged weapons. Using those three criteria, I made three new heroes to join the ranks of the Saviors. L to R
Mage- A sorcerer with an assortment of magic rods, spell books, and talismans to attack enemies and defend himself.
Gladiator- (heavily inspired by Roman) A fearless warrior with lightweight yet incredibly dense armor and two double edged swords. The swords can sever objects with ease.
Firearm- A tech genius with twin machine guns and a jet pack that can fly for short distances. He named his guns “Obliterate” and “Decimate”.

In 1917-1918, Michel de Klerk, commissioned by Eigen Haard, designed a third housing complex for workers on Spaarndammerplantsoen: Het Schip (The Ship).
Completed in 1921, the complex represents the pinnacle of the Amsterdam School and De Klerk's oeuvre. It exemplifies how beautiful social housing can be. It combines mass and individuality. While it is a large block of houses, each unit offers something unique.
Facade detail on Oostzaanstraat
The apartments part (red brick finish) is clearly differentiated from the "public" part (common areas, school, post office ...etc. in dark brick finish and high windows).

In 1917-1918 ontwerpt Michel de Klerk in opdracht van Eigen Haard een derde woningcomplex met arbeiderswoningen aan het Spaarndammerplantsoen: Het Schip.
Het complex werd in 1921 opgeleverd en vormt het hoogtepunt van de Amsterdamse School en van het oeuvre van De Klerk. Het is een voorbeeldproject van hoe fraai sociale woningbouw kan zijn. Er is een koppeling tussen massa en individualiteit. Het is een groot blok woningen, maar toch heeft iedere woning iets unieks.
Geveldetail aan de Oostzaanstraat
Het appartementengedeelte (afgewerkt met rode bakstenen) is duidelijk te onderscheiden van het "openbare" gedeelte (gemeenschappelijke ruimtes, school, postkantoor, enz., afgewerkt met donkere bakstenen en hoge ramen).

M. Wulumuqi Rd. & Changle Rd., Shanghai
As the night wore on, more and more police officers formed a human wall at the intersection of the blockade. A traffic policeman in the middle of the junction (the one on the left) grew increasingly brutal, shouting at the crowd to "back off" and forcing them onto the pavement so that police vehicles and trucks carrying roadblocks could enter. One onlooker said, "This man is so arrogant, and deserves to be hung from a street lamp."
Behind me, the crowd on the pavement was also mixed with a growing number of policemen and policewomen. They mouthed gentle words to persuade the crowd to leave, occasionally pushing and pulling with their hands. A voice behind me said, "Don't touch me! Can't I even stand here?"
However, the actual arrests were made late at night, after most of the people had gradually dispersed.
On the night of 26 November 2022, a demonstration took place in Middle Wulumuqi (Urumqi) Road, Shanghai in memory of the victims of the fire in Wulumuqi (Urumqi), Xinjiang, the casualties of which were caused by the building being locked up as a result of absurd anti-epidemic measures which made it impossible for residents to escape. The police ended up arresting many of the demonstrators and loading three police buses:

On the evening of the 27th, a large area of the neighbourhood where the demonstration took place last night was suddenly blocked off, allowing only people to leave and not enter, perhaps to prevent further demonstrations from gathering there.. A large number of people gathered at the intersections of the blocked-off neighbourhoods, which gradually festered into a new demonstration.
The demonstration on the night of the 27th:

This image shows Glasgow's weather in characteristic form to complete my west coast photo essay. As with the first of these images ( flic.kr/p/2qBbvJc ), this shot captures the essence of this station for me: in Glasgow’s case, busy, populated with exotic trains (from the perspective of a Sassenach), and raining!
The date is Wednesday, 28th March 1984 and an APT set waits to head south on what is likely to be the 0900 relief to Euston. The crowd of gentlemen striding towards the ticket barriers, many of who are lacking in appropriate outdoor attire, are presumably not railway enthusiasts given their lack of interest in the future of travel nor the distinctly Scottish class 27 to the left of the frame.
Unlike London Euston, Glasgow Central still has the grandeur and heritage of the Victorian era. While Euston’s period pieces were swept away in the white heat of 1960s progress, Glasgow Central has been sympathetically restored and, despite the rain, feels like a hospitable station appropriate for a great city.
Glasgow Central was not the original station for the west coast route in the city. The Caledonian Railway originally used the Townhead terminus, 1.5 miles to the northeast, then in November 1849, the new station of Buchanan Street was used. Growth led to the opening of Glasgow Central in 1879, immediately north of the river Clyde that the railway follows for the last 45 miles of its journey from London.
I trust that those that have followed my photo essay have enjoyed the ride. The west coast route is so varied and so long that it has been very easy to find disparate images from my collection. Selecting images for this essay has been challenging: I have been shooting trains on the route since the 1980s, and in the 21st century I still manage perhaps 30-40 images of the line every year. Furthermore, since I started collecting other photographer's images, it seems that the line was popular for others too!

What crazy times these are. These images were taken not quite two weeks ago before Europe (and more specifically Belgium) went into lockdown. We dithered at the time as to whether we should go but of course there was no mandate to shut Borders whilst we were there. That announcement came the day after our return. Our visit was much quieter and quite eerie with no crowds and no problem with maintaining social distancing.
I seem to have lost confidence and enthusiasm for photography (it's taken me 2 weeks to decide to post these) but it will provide some sort of focus for the coming months. At least we are going into longer and warmer days, and with the lack of air traffic over London and the Home Counties it's lovely to hear the birdsong again and reconnect with nature which in it's self is calming and reassuring.
Stay safe and healthy guys.
