I need some help, if I were to get a lens first what should I buy, a macro (sigma 105mm) or a landscape lens (canon 40mm f2.8)?!
part of my local patch, this was taken with my telephoto at 120mm, just a grab shot to be honest!
Petteri Tarma, from Joensuu, taxis his locally-sponsored Cap 231 back after a competition flight. I was able to catch the Josek aircraft just as it passed the banner advertising the pilot's, and the sponsor's, home town.
WEEK 30.2 – Oakland Kroger, Pre-Remodel (I)
Speaking of the former Hernando Kroger: not only is Oakland here similar in that it has the same exterior design and the same interior décor, it even goes so far as to also have some local flair of its own!
I felt that my Hernando store was extra special due to personal bias the presence of some cool historical photos of the town that were placed all around the perimeter walls. (You can see those at the start of this album, if you're interested.) Unfortunately, when that store was demolished, only a handful of those local flair pics made it into the new Marketplace store... but all of them were salvaged from the old store, so I'd like to think the rest are still out there somewhere :)
As you'll see, Oakland didn't have local flair pictures in quite the same quantity as Hernando did, but the ones they did have looked almost exactly alike in the way they were framed and captioned (simply exchanging my beloved cupola icon for that same “Fayette County” logo we saw in the vestibule). And one thing Oakland had that I don't recall ever noticing in Hernando is that small plaque attributing the local flair: “Historical Photos and Facts Compliments of Ms. Joy Rosser and Oakland Deposit Bank.” Good deal!

One of a short set of Bluebell photos from a local photowalk. Taken during the only nice weather in a whole week!
1980 Bedford TK Pantechnicon JUX 95V in the livery of A.H. Vater and Sons, Heathfield, Sussex was an unusual entrant on the 2016 HCVS London to Brighton run. Hre it passes Preston Park on the morning of May 1st.
Items in the Museo Maffeiano, Verona. Memorial of a local architect/builder who obtained a magistracy. You can see his curule seat and lictors, as well as the tools of his trade.
l_dawg2000 began an album over the weekend documenting some roadway improvements occurring along Highway 51 in Hernando (check it out here!), and began the series by posting an image of the gas station at the corner of Commerce Street and 51 right at the beginning of Hernando’s town square. The only thing is, in his photo the gas station is branded as Dees Oil, which is itself a recent development! So to supplement his new “after” pic, I’ve decided to post what “before” pics I have of the station.
We’re beginning with this shot taken the evening of September 14th, 2015. As compared to l_dawg’s linked photo, you can see that the station used to have a high(ish)-rise sign at the intersection, as well as a more traditional canopy. The station is generically branded as “Local Express” here, but there’s a clue as to its previous ownership elsewhere in this shot. Bonus points to anyone who guesses correctly without first flipping to the next photo to see the answer!

Some local landmarks taken on a night meet with the fine folks of the CCC. Me and Scott stopped off at the sculpture Temenos to see what we could get from that view point. I like it, it was tough going but the results please me.
I honestly suggest large on black. View On Black
Took a walk around the Dysynni River. Plenty of birds about but not many flying. Nice to finally have some sunshine :)
A quiet Saturday walk through local villages leads to the annual Festa in Sobreiro - and a local lady kindly gives us a huge Pumpkin - so tonight's menu includes baked Pumpkin
After a fantastic lunch at Blvd. BBQ in KCMO, I saw this BNSF local rolling down the Ft. Scott Sub with pure BN power on the point, and I had to go chasing it. When I was a kid, I remember seeing these in tiger stripes with fuel tenders and B30-7A's leading the Expediters to/from Chicago, but in 2014, I'm happy to shoot them on anything.
This is at CP Rosedale, and I'm looking northeast towards Mill St. (that's my old 2010 Pontiac Vibe) and I-35.
