Gebänderter Fidschileguan ♂ (Brachylophus fasciatus)
Der Gebänderte Fidschileguan (Brachylophus fasciatus) ist eine von vier Arten der Fidschileguane.
Der Gebänderte Fidschileguan erreicht eine Kopf-Rumpf-Länge von durchschnittlich 17 bis 18 Zentimetern. Die Gesamtlänge liegt bei rund 70 Zentimetern, der Schwanz kann also über 40 Zentimeter lang werden. Das Gewicht beträgt bis zu 200 Gramm. Es gibt aber auch größere Exemplare mit fast einem Meter Länge. Er ist somit ein großer Vertreter aus der Familie der Leguane, jedoch kleiner als der Grüne Leguan, dem er ähnlich sieht. Die Tiere haben einen flachen Körperbau. Auf dem Rücken tragen sie einen kleinen, kaum sichtbaren Kamm. Der lange Schwanz läuft zum Ende hin spitz zu. Die Finger und die Zehen sind mit sehr langen, spitzen Krallen versehen. Das Weibchen ist einheitlich grün gefärbt. Das Männchen hingegen trägt ein Bändermuster aus hellgrünen und dunkelgrünen, dicken Querstreifen am Körper, der Hals ist mit einem hellen Fleck versehen.
The Banded Fijiguana (Brachylophus fasciatus) ♂ is one of four species of Fijian iguanas.
The banded Fijiguana reaches an average head-torso length of 17 to 18 centimeters. The total length is around 70 centimetres, so the tail can be over 40 centimetres long. The weight is up to 200 grams. But there are also larger specimens with a length of almost one meter. It is therefore a large representative of the iguana family, but smaller than the green iguana, which it looks like. The animals have a flat physique. On their backs they wear a small, barely visible comb. The long tail tapers towards the end. The fingers and toes are provided with very long, pointed claws. The female is uniformly green in colour. The male, on the other hand, wears a ribbon pattern of light green and dark green, thick horizontal stripes on the body, the neck is provided with a light spot.

Rotating out from the 09 right end of Heathrow Airport and bound for Perth in Australia is the Qantas 787-9 Dreamliner "Yam dreaming" livery.
This Indigenous inspired livery is based on the work of Emily Kame Kngwarreye and adapted by design studio Balarinji. The aircraft also bares the name of Emily and the studio Balarinji.
The carrier promotes this Livery as it continues to commit to reconciliation with the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
Canadian Pacific GP38AC 3002 rests next to lines of stored GSNX coal hoppers at Muskego Yard, Milwaukee, after being dropped off by a manifest. The 3002 is one of a batch of nineteen GP38ACs built by Canada's GMDD in 1970-71. The GP38AC, as built by both GMDD and EMD, is essentially a standard GP38 but uses an AR-10 alternator instead of the GP38's generator. 261 units were produced for ten railroads and one utility company; almost all that have not been scrapped have since been rebuilt, but CP's are an exception. They are also notable for the fact that, for a significant portion of their careers, a group was assigned to CP's isolated trackage on Vancouver Island, BC, where they were at some point relettered for E&N Railfreight (Esquimalt & Nanaimo, today's Southern Railway of Vancouver Island, a subsidiary of the Washington Group's Southern Railway of British Columbia, SRY) before being returned to the rest of the CP system (obviously they were re-relettered). A standard geep at Muskego was a sight for sore eyes, as GP33C-ECOs have been the mainstays of yard and local power in Milwaukee for a number of years now. This unit would later go on to Portage, for local work based from there.

Oh, this IS my photo.
A Cape Island style fishing boat, mostly used for lobster fishing, is an inshore motor fishing boat found across Atlantic Canada having a single keeled flat bottom at the stern and more rounded towards the bow. The Cape Island style boat is famous for its large step up to the bow. They are known for being good "sea" boats, and riding the swells well. The design originated on Cape Sable Island, Nova Scotia about 1905.
"No man or woman is an island. To exist just for yourself is meaningless. You can achieve the most satisfaction when you feel related to some greater purpose in life, something greater than yourself." -Denis Waitley
Taken back in the summer of 1989, here's the Cape Islander "Miss Nancy" resting just above the high tide mark. She looks like she won't be going anywhere soon because four hatch covers have been removed, allowing access to the below deck area. I've visited Pembroke many times over the years and was surprised to discover that according to the latest images from Google Earth, everything in the photo except for some pilings is gone. It's possible that a storm could have leveled the structures, or maybe they were torn down.
Original image taken with a Nikon F3HP, 35mm f/2.8 lens, Kodacolor VR-G 100 negative film.
The original negative was copied using a Nikon D3500 camera, 55mm f/3.5 Micro-Nikkor, fitted with a Nikon 4T close-up lens, a 1.6x Sigma achromatic close-up lens on the 4T. Exposure was 1 second at f/11, ISO set at 100. The light source was a 13.5 watt LED bulb (5000K).
