It looks like a synchronized ballet but it's a well studied and tactical swiss wrestling move called "Brienzer vorwärts". The foreground wrestler is doing this move in order to push his opponent with the back on the sawdust and, therefore, win the game.
A little dog watching me taking photos. He didn't pause for long and soon approached me to see what I was up to.
Two men play Shogi, the Japanese strategy board game also known as Japanese chess or the Generals' Game, on Minato Park, Nagasaki.
In Shogi (from shou-general and gi-board game) there are twenty wedge-shaped pieces of slightly different sizes for each player, placed on a 9x9 board (usually rectangular). Except for the kings that have different markings and colors, opposing pieces are identical and what belongs to whom is indicated by the way the pieces are placed on the board (facing forward toward the opponent's side). All pieces except the king and the gold general have a reverse side, which is revealed when a piece is promoted (the promotion zone is at the furthest one-third of the board). The goal of the two players (Sente-person with the first move and Gote-person with the second move) is to checkmate the opponent’s king (ōshō-king general). Interestingly, a game can end if a player performs an illegal move or if the same game position occurs four times with the same player to move (Sennichite).
Had some fun on some back roads and stopped to snap some pics along the way.

I received a call at work about 11:30am on Monday telling me that my younger son was involved in a car accident and to go to the hospital. He was driving and was t-boned on the driver's side. Except for bruises, the passenger was fine as well as the man who was driving the truck. My son had a hematoma in his brain, a lacerated spleen, five broken ribs, a broken jaw, multiple facial fractures, a small pneumothorax, and two broken collarbones, one of them severely displaced.
Fortunately, we saw improvement in the two most threatening things, the hematoma in his brain and the lacerated spleen. By Wednesday night he was moved out of the ICU to a regular room. Thursday he had two surgeries, one for his broken jaw, which was realigned and wired. And the other for the one broken collarbone that was severely displaced.
The surgeries went well and he feels, and so do we, that he's on the road to recovery. As of Thursday night, we were waiting to hear from the doctors when he might be released

A large piece of equipment -- I have no idea what it is -- needs a special flatcar and is making a special move on Norfolk Southern. There were two of these things in the consist of NS train L53 on the Cleveland Line crossing the Cuyahoga River.
They backed over the bridge, pulled forward over the connecting track, and came to a stop for the conductor to detrain.

WW II era steamer American Victory before the short move down the channel in Superior WI. Heritage tug Edward H is seen working the ice along the hull. The Victory is now owned by Algoma Central Marine. It's future is not looking very bright with word is it will give up its unloading boom to another laker. The Victory will most likely be transported to a scrapyard down lake for final dismantling.
It was quite a trek to get to this old farmstead which is on my parents' land. My dog & I had to plow thru a really tall thick bumper crop of wheat to get there on a very hot summer day. ...Of course I went inside!
Black and white conversion of orchid closeup. The lighting came out kind of mysterious...hope it works.

"She's the way - She turns the tide
She sees a man, inside the child
It's all right, it's all right, all right
She moves in mysterious ways
Love
It's all right, it's all right, all right
Lift my days, light up my nights
Love
One day you will look... back
And you'll see... where
You were held... how
By this love... while
You could stand there
You could move on this moment
Follow this feeling"
