After a few years of inaction, I installed a new Li-ion NP-400 battery in my 2005 Konica Minolta DSLR Dynax 5D to replace the dead original one, and I did a small series of pictures with the two KM zoom lenses to re-evaluate the small Sony 6 MP CCD (still not a CMOS) sensor and optics.
The KM Dynax 5D was the latest DSLR body released by Konica Minolta before to be sold to SONY Corp.

Mundane suburban symmetry. Grey brick on grey sky on grey pavement. Dull and neutral, blending in, unnoticed.
Incomparable to the aged character of a Toronto laneway, but just enough to warrant wasting some megabytes on.
I've been reading a lot about paleontology in the 1800s, when scientists would describe entire species from a handful of bones. Like the Crystal Palace critters. So... this happened

He was killed in action, aged 29, when leading an attack against the Germans near Ypres on 14th. February 1915.
His Colonel wrote:
“His natural bent for games and his prowess thereat showed him up as one to be reckoned an asset to the Battalion. His naturally free carriage made his smartness the more conspicuous and admirable. His spirit of fair play rendered his strict sense of discipline acceptable even to those who suffered most therefrom. The reports on him in a series of years have called him 'full of influence for good with his juniors', 'a typical leader of men', and it was as such, alas! that his last great effort ended fatally for him. Whatever he had given him to do he did thoroughly. At manoeuvres, he was always a leader, a setter of the best example. When senior subaltern he was invaluable in putting young ones right, and his manners and his way of doing his work were always patterns for them to copy.”

His DFC was gazetted in February 1945. The London Gazette of 4th. November 1949 records he was awarded the Territorial Efficiency Medal as a Flight Lieutenant,
On the night of Monday 21st. March 1949, Handley Page HP-70 Halifax C.8, serial number 1396, registered G-AJZZ and owned by Lancashire Aircraft Corporation (LAC), flew into high ground during 'Operation Planefare', the Berlin Airlift. Making the return flight from Berlin Tempelhof Airport, on final approach to Schleswigland airfield, the aircraft was too low and crashed few hundred yards short of runway. Three crew members, Captain Robert John Freight, pilot, John Sharp, aged 26, navigator and Henry Patterson, flight engineer were killed. The only survivor was radio operator Hamilton, who was thrown 40 feet over a hedge. Despite his injuries he walked the two miles to Schleswigland airfield and reported the accident. After a stay in hospital he returned to duties on the airlift. The aircraft was destroyed.
A little over a year after the property had been flooded out, it happened again.
The property manager and maintenance manager didn't answer calls. The after-hours emergency contact did answer but said they didn't know what to do (and then buttdialed me while they were watching porn).
Someone was to come out the following day to see how bad this bout was and figure out what to do next. No one ever came by.
