Taken whilst on a family holiday in Liapades in Corfu, back in 2019. We often visited the centre of Liapades in the evening for something to eat and the locals would regularly sit out and chat. This group caught my attention from the taverna, who looked so relaxed in the warm evening air.

Page, Arizona - 2013 I made this photograph a very short distance away from the entrance to the Antelope slot canyons in Page, AZ. I can tell my interests have changed as I was far more interested in what this power generation station had to offer than the often photographed slot canyons. Personal evolution I suppose.
Contrasts in the city. Some homework for social report photography.

HST 43319 awaits departure at the head of the 1S18 11:35 to Edinburgh Waverley, Class 91, 91125 awaits departure with an empty stock back to Neville Hill, Leeds runnings as 5Z11 11:03 Neville Hill TRSMD, then the new kid on the block and also my train back to Leeds, Azuma 800107 with 1D14 11:30 Leeds.
Now if I’d managed to blag a ride on the empty stock 91, we be back in Leeds an hour and half before the Azuma, the 91 was the last service up the ECML beyond Peterborough due to planned engineering work around Newark / Grantham the Azuma and following HST had a pleasant detour through Spalding, Lincoln and Gainsborough.
This was my first experience of an LNER Azuma, and in all honesty I don’t know what all the moans and groans are about, the seat reservation worked a treat, we had a standard class table, which aligned perfectly with the window, the ride was smooth and fast on electric and I hardly noticed the switch from electric to diesel and back. The seats, after 3 and a half hours were just fine, and on the plus side we arrived back in Leeds bang on time.

Dublin Bus currently Enviro400 EV 79 operating route 42 from Dublin City Centre to Portmarnock is joined by ALX400 AV42 now based as a driver trainer at Phibsboro meet at the 42 terminus at Portmarock beach.
AV 42 was previously attached to Clontarf & would have operated many a time on the 42, AV 42 on the 42.

A couple of weeks ago, I went for a walk around my favourite forest park (Parkanaur). They have a wonderful herd of white fallow deer, and I happened to arrive in the evening when they were out in the open. This gorgeous young buck (you can just see his antlers beginning to grow) looked a little startled, but I still got close enough to get this shot :)
Hope you are all having a great Wednesday, at least we're half way through the week :)
Thanks again everyone for the great comments on my previous photos, I am overwhelmed by how kind you all are. Trying to catch up is so difficult, but I'll get there :)
Cruise liner Europa leaving its berth at Greenwich and making its way past some of the smaller ships at the Tall Ships Festival. The liner is being aided by an escorting tug.
In holland mask use is optional, some people might go full hazmat (not that many), a few opt to wear a homemade mask or a surgical mask. Many folks are also opting to go without. The result is that kids and younger people will not wear one at all, older and/or sicker people do wear them when they go out. Though not all, it´s a personal decision here, though if we get another peak I´m sure will see more people wearing them.
Leucanthemum vulgare, also known as Oxeye Daisy and Dog Daisy.
(Description for the Butterfly Aricia agestis follows below)
Family: Asteraceae.
Grows up to 1m tall, flower heads to 5cm across.
Flower season: May to September.
A widespread plant native to Europe and Asia. Plant was introduced to Australia, New Zealand and North America. It likes a temperate climate where the average annual rainfall exceeds 750mm (30 inches). Favouring soils that are heavy and moist, often grows in neglected pastures and along roadsides. Being a typical grassland perennial wildflower, it can be found growing in a variety of habitats. Meadows, fields, under scrub and open-canopy forests, edge of woodlands is also an ideal habitat for the Oxeye Daisy.
A mature plant can produce up to 26,000 seeds, it can also multiply itself by its under-ground root system which continuously puts out lateral shoots to spread away from the mature plant. By spreading itself this way, it produces a negative effect to other native plants growing close by.
In over 40 countries it is considered to be an invasive species, it is also detrimental in meadows where livestock are to graze especially cattle.
This plant was top-raked for pollen production per flower head, in a U.K. study of meadow flowers.
Aricia agestis. Common name: Brown Argus Average wingspan 29mm
Flight Season… May to September.
Unlike most other blue species, the Brown Argus has no blue scales on the upper-side.
Found mainly in southern England and in some parts of Wales not found in Scotland, Ireland and the Isle of man.
Habitat… Most commonly found on chalk or limestone, this is where the ground suits the main food plants. Will also be found on heathland and in open woodland. This species stays local and in small colonies, will not travel more then a few hundred metres from where it emerged.
Generally speaking this species has two broods a year in central and southern England, if the weather is favourable then a third generation is possible.
The Brown Argus Caterpillar’s main food is common Rockrose (Helianthemum chamaecistus)
Ants are attracted to the caterpillar’s “sweet juices” it produces, as it grows bigger. Eventually they will take it underground and continue to “farm” the secretion from the caterpillar, until it turns into a chrysalis. This in turn, protects the caterpillar from predators.
Beneath a canopy of overhead power wires and catenary, two of New Jersey Transit's E60CH electrics hang out in the South Amboy motor storage yard on the morning of 10 July 1985: No. 973 in an Amtrak patch job and No. 960 already repainted into NJT platinum mist. The secondhand rectifiers replaced aging GG-1 electrics and provided a stopgap solution to NJT's electric power needs for a few years, before themselves being supplanted by the next generation of AC propulsion. In the background, standing as a reminder of the steam era when PRR K4 Pacifics roamed the shore, is the old water tower.
