The latest addition to The Big Lemon Coaches fleet is this Mercedes 814 Plaxton Cheetah Y259 NAK. Purchased from Charlton Coach Hire, this vehicle will operate school services during the week and local private hires at weekends. This now makes 5 large coaches , 1 small midicoach & 1 support van making up the coaching fleet. It’s worth noting this fleet list as The Big Lemon Coaches Limited trades separate to the The Big Lemon CIC which is now solely the bus operations.
I've got an arbutus in my garden and this latest flowering, with the latest sun ray attracted butterfly, bee and others browsing insects
I can't imagine why anyone would stand in a wet and windy Rottingdean this morning, 7th December 2024, just to get a snap of a bus but then again it's been a two year wait to catch one of Big Lemon's former Arriva Enviro 200s out on the road in Sussex. Technically, GN08 CHC was new to Arriva Southend as their 4006 for use on TfL services out of Grays depot before gaining London number ENL86. CHC was one of a job lot purchased by the Lemon from Thandi back in 2022 which truly have turned out to be lemons.

When this shot was taken 58003 represented the latest in freight haulage technology for the UK.It was barely 2 years old but within 14 years it was withdrawn from service. The 9F actually only lasted 8 years before going the same way in 1967.Ironically 58003 is now no more being cut -up in 2010 whilst 92203 'Black Prince' is still in regular use on the G&W-Rly at Toddington.Both Classes were victims of managements lack of vision.A typical UK disease.

I wonder what my Fashionistas are talking about. I haven't played with them lately. I need to reconnect...
I was having some structural issues whenever I tried to pick it up, so I decided to flip the ship on its side and began a slight redesign. I've kept the overall flow so it didn't set me back to much. Still have more detailing and engines

Here’s the latest in my series of mini models. Although it’s not bigger on the inside, I think the way the doors connect to the central structure is especially timey-wimey … and also very cool! I'm also very happy with how the door panels turned out.
This one flew off the loom in a matter of a few hours over a few days. I really like the color combo. I just may be getting the hang of the new artform.
Melbourne based street artist Rone (Tyrone Wright) used the decaying glory of the 1933 Harry Norris designed Streamline Moderne mansion, Burnham Beeches in the Dandenong Ranges' Sherbrooke, between March the 6th and April 22nd to create an immersive hybrid art space for his latest installation exhibition; "Empire".
"Empire" combined a mixture of many different elements including art, sound, light, scent, found objects, botanic designs, objects from nature and music especially composed for the project by Nick Batterham. The Burnham Beeches project re-imagines and re-interprets the spirit of one of Victoria’s landmark mansions, seldom seen by the public and not accessed since the mid 1980s. According to Rone - Empire website; "viewers are invited to consider what remains - the unseen cultural, social, artistic and spiritual heritage which produces intangible meaning."
Rone was invited by the current owner of Burnham Beeches, restaurateur Shannon Bennett, to exhibit "Empire" during a six week interim period before renovations commence to convert the heritage listed mansion into a select six star hotel.
Rone initially imagined the mansion to be in a state of dereliction, but found instead that it was a stripped back blank canvas for him to create his own version of how he thought it should look. Therefore, almost all the decay is in fact of Rone's creation from grasses in the Games Room which 'grow' next to a rotting billiards table, to the damp patches, water staining and smoke damage on the ceilings. Nests of leaves fill some spaces, whilst tree branches and in one case an entire avenue of boughs sprout from walls and ceilings. Especially designed Art Deco wallpaper created in Rone's studio has been installed on the walls before being distressed and damaged. The rooms have been adorned with furnishings and objects that might once have graced the twelve original rooms of Burnham Beeches: bulbulous club sofas, half round Art Deco tables, tarnished silverware and their canteen, mirrored smoke stands of chrome and Bakelite, glass lamps, English dinner services, a glass drinks trolley, photos of people long forgotten in time, walnut veneer dressing tables reflecting the installation sometimes in triplicate, old wire beadsteads, luggage, shelves of books, an Underwood typewriter, a John Broadwood and Sons of London grand piano and even a Kriesler radiogramme. All these objects were then covered in a thick sheet or light sprinkling of 'dust' made of many different things including coffee grinds and talcum powder, creating a sensation for the senses. Burnham Beeches resonated with a ghostly sense of its former grandeur, with a whiff of bittersweet romance.
Throughout the twelve rooms, magnificent and beautifully haunting floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall portraits of Australian actress Lily Sullivan, star of the Foxtel re-make of Picnic at Hanging Rock, appear. Larger than life, each portrait is created in different colours, helping to create seasonal shifts as you move from room to room.
Although all the rooms are amazing for many different reasons, there are two major standouts. The Study features walls of books covered with a portrait of Lily Sullivan, and the entire room is partially submerged in a lake of black water with the occasional red oak leaf floating across its glassy surface. The Dining Room features two long tables covered in a Miss Havisham like feast of a trove of dinner table objects from silverware and glassware to empty oyster shells and vases of grasses and feathers.
The Dining Room installation I found especially confronting. In 1982, I visited Burnham Beeches when it was a smart and select hotel and had Devonshire tea in the dining room at a table alongside the full length windows overlooking the terraces below. I was shocked to see a room I remember appointed with thick carpets and tables covered in gleaming silver and white napery, strewn with dust and leaves, and adorned with Miss Havisham's feast of found dining objects.
I feel very honoured and privileged to be amongst the far too few people fortunate enough to have seen Rone's "Empire", as like the seasons, it is ephemeral, and it will already have been dismantled. Rone's idea is that, like his street art, things he creates don't last forever, and that made the project exciting. I hope that my photographs do justice to, and adequately share as much as is possible of this amazing installation with you.

I rarely capture photographs of the gear I use to capture photographs, but this year has seen some changes to my camera and lens rig.
These are two of my latest 'lovelies': a Canon EF 14mm f/2.8L II USM, which I purchased on 12/01/2017 to replace my long-serving Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II USM; and my much newer Canon EOS 5D Mark IV, which I purchased on 23/06/2017.
The Canon EOS 5D Mark IV is a substantial upgrade to my Canon EOS 5D Mark II, a 2008-vintage camera which I have been using since 2010. I will keep my 5D2, but the new 5D4 will be my main camera.
I am looking forward to taking advantage of the increased dynamic range and reduced high-ISO noise of this latest generation of full-frame Canon sensors.
This is my latest puki, mermaid Flora.
I have clear in my mind her character and her story and I hope to make a photostory or something similar.
Ande yes, her name is Nutella. There's a story behind it.
I was trying to make a "water" effect but I don't think it's very good. I have to think of another way. Light is strange "under the sea"!
