The Water Music is a collection of orchestral movements, often considered as three suites, composed by George Frideric Handel. It premiered in the summer of 1717 when King George I requested a concert on the River Thames. The concert was performed by 50 musicians that joined King George I on his barge. King George I was said to have loved it so much that he ordered Handel to play the suites three times on the trip.

I linger as the dead men lay in front of me. The Tranquility must have had enough, finally showing up.
Hector's face is full of disbelief, looking pale.
"And I'm here."
The Tranquility's voice is cloaked, shrouded. Somewhat metallic and human. The accent does sound American.
"Killing Outerdyne's men like I did?" I shout. "And now, you're here, for a conman."
The Tranquility doesn't reply. Hector shoots at him, causing him to retreat, fleeing. Seconds later I hear more footsteps approach behind us. More mercenaries were coming as I use my scanner. By the time my head turns around, the Tranquility was gone.
"Go, Adrian." Hector tells me. "I'll be able to handle myself. I promise I'll be waiting after you're done". "Meet me soon then." I give him a nod before continuing the chase.
I climb on a wall, eyes scanning the Tranquility on the rooftops and hopping over a few buildings. I use my strength to propel me more, eventually getting to the top. Seeming to have predicted my movements, the Tranquility fires darts at me, sprung from his wrists, but I evade them quickly as I can. He shoots more as I slide behind a power generator, taking cover. He continues to run, and I return a few shots back at him. He also misses it.
The chase continues on as he starts moving a little more slower than usual. He eventually stops, legs on the ground. I continue to point my gun at him, until I see blood drip from him. "I'm not...here to kill." He barely mouths words. Putting my gun away, I give him bandages and he covers himself. A few minutes pass and he seems to be better.
"Then explain yourself. You've already killed quite a number."
"Those were Outerdyne's people. Hector was supposed to be my target because I had to kill him. But my connection with him and your intervention, I stopped. I hesitated to kill. Because that never mattered than bringing Outerdyne down."
"Then who are you to him?"
"Only a friend. Unimportant information. Even though you tried taking me down, you have saved me. But there's something I gotta say before you take me in..."
"I didn't have to kill. Because I couldn't risk taking a life. I'm listening."
"The body...it was a damn trap. They poisoned their own, and I walked right into it, my bullet took him in further. Silvio was right all along, being the actual formant he was, feeding me information, but I didn't trust him."
"So is Hector in this?"
"No, he's merely a pawn, but he's a useful asset and a good friend. Take me in now. But promise me one thing..."
"Okay."
Minutes later, Hector told me to go off first, as he would leave, sharing a conversation with the Tranquility. His confidence tricks actually got me, at least half the time. I call Caroline to come.
"Patch us up, Caroline."
The next thing I heard, was:
"Save the agents."
Many thanks for the visits, faves and comments. Cheers
Grey Teal
Scientific Name: Anas gracilis
Description: The Grey Teal is almost all grey-brown. Each feather of the body is edged with buff, except on the rump. The chin and throat are white, the bill is dark green and the eye is red. The secondary wing feathers have glossy blue-black patch, broadly bordered and tipped with white. In flight, a large white wedge is visible on the underwing. The Grey Teal is one of the smaller Australian ducks (males are larger than females). Both sexes are similar in plumage.
Similar species: The Grey Teal is sometimes confused with the female Chestnut Teal,A. castanea. The Chestnut Teal has the chin and throat pale brown, instead of white. The male Chestnut Teal is quite different in plumage, being mostly chestnut below, dark brown above and with a glossed green head and neck. The two species overlap in range and often mix together where they meet.
Distribution: Grey Teals are found throughout Australia
Habitat: Grey Teals are common in all sheltered watered areas. These include fresh, brackish and salt water, and the birds can be found on the smallest area of water in the driest of areas. The most favoured habitat type is timbered pools and river systems of the inland areas, where these birds can be found in quite large numbers.
Seasonal movements: During periods of drought, Grey Teal are very mobile in search of water, often travelling great distances.
Feeding: Grey Teals feed in small to large flocks. Food consists of a variety of types and includes dry land plants, aquatic plants, seeds, crustaceans, and insects and their larvae. Feeding methods are also varied. Birds may dabble (filter surface water or mud through the bill), upend and feed from the bottom, or graze from the surface of the water on plant material.
Breeding: Grey Teals may breed when there is available food and waterways are suitable. Taking advantage of this opportunistic breeding style, birds lay soon after suitable conditions arrive and may raise several broods while the conditions remain favourable. If conditions are not suitable, birds may not breed at all in a year. Most breeding takes place around inland waterways, and nests may be placed on the ground, in rabbit burrows or in tree hollows. The birds normally lay their eggs on the bare floor of the nest site, which are then covered with down (feathers).
Minimum Size: 40cm
Maximum Size: 48cm
Average size: 44cm
Breeding season: Any time of year
Clutch Size: 4 to 14 (usually 8)

50018 Resolution and another class member await their next turn of duty around the turntable at Old Oak Common in July 1988
Despite signs to the contrary at the entrance Old Oak was always a friendly shed to visit.
Logs, speedboats, trains, and traffic all make their way to their destination on or near the Fraser River.
Thought I would post a sign (for Daves amusement)

Training occurs prior to any big event. Proof of concept, being match fit, learning roles, refinement, gestures, movements and timings. Being in a team or performing as an individual.
In this image we see an illustration of an earthwork currently known as a Neolithic 'cursus' and here renamed a 'Transport Dragon Run': here a training ground - in two days, a gathering.
This form of early British Isles Neolithic earthwork sags over time; fails ever to be restored back into vivid form and space, and even gets ploughed back into soil or aligned aside traffic jams, electric windows and passing snaps.
Here the 'Transport Dragon Run' has a long barrow at one end, and a terminal post hole, and so is mildly inspired by the 3km long 'Stonehenge Greater cursus' of around 3500 BC. This earthwork came into time during the lifespan of the nearby 'Pedestal circle' at 'Robin Hood Ball' (4000-3000 BC) and originated some 400 years prior to another nearby earthwork, that of the pre megalithic Stonehenge 1 (3100 BC): a causewayed henge, almost like a simplified memory of a pedestal circle, where display took over from capacity for individual 'Transport Dragons' to execute outwards tangential rush.
[See linked below for an associated Flickr post and drawing that illustrates the early Neolithic 'Causewayed Enclosure' earthworks as 'Pedestal circles' for grouped 'Transport Dragons'. See past posts and a Flickr album for a full explanation of the 'Transport Dragon' and how it was enhanced and enabled by the invention of the 'Tension lever' - currently known as the 'Bâton percé' - again, research and Flickr album via this Photostream]
The dates of the Neolithic vary from east to west and south to north, as do details of regional megalithic, petroglyphic and earthwork manifestation. In the UK, the landscape-art of ditch, bank and raised stone perhaps started with the 'Pedestal Circles': earthworks for groups of late period residual 'Transport Dragons'. The 100 examples of 'Pedestal Circles' were built between 4900 and 4800 BC. Stonehenge 1 had many of the qualities of a causewayed enclosure and this ripple for a true future megasite was thrown around 3100 BC, so 1700 years after the 'Pedestal circle' building boom. In-between are found the hyperbolic and intoxicatingly unusual earthworks currently known as 'cursus' and here referred to as 'Transport Dragon Runs'.
In summary: the following chronology relates to parts of Britain:
- 'Pedestal circles' (Causewayed enclosures) 3700-3625 BC
- Approximative 100 year buffer
- 'Transport dragon runs' (Cursus) approx' 3500-2920 BC
- The 'Stonehenge 1' earthwork 3100 BC
- Approximative 100 year buffer
- Start of the age of megalithic stone circles: around 3000 BC.
Earthwork mounds (barrows/Tumuli) of varied silhouette and armature tended to start after the Pedestal circles and then coincide with the 'Transport Dragon Runs' to then carry on for several ages.
Examples of 'Transport Dragon Runs' include the 10km long Dorset Cursus; the triple henged megasite with dissecting cursus of 'Thornborough', and of course the examples on sites that would later be remembered as 'Newgrange' and 'Stonehenge'. From just 46m long to a staggering 9.7km, there was something in the function of a 'Cursus' that accepted flexibility of local expression. Some examples crossed rivers, many occurred near rivers. Which ever size you choose, the builders of the peripheral banks (via exterior ditch) would need to find a serious and compelling 'self' motivation, or they might need to be bullied and threatened into work by physical and/or psychological strategy. This latter option seems to be snug with the zeitgeist of today's video-game generation, and several prehistory commentators describing 'religious dictators', late prehistoric 'Lords' and other examples of back-dated Medievalism and Empire-ista. In effect, we are currently asked to imagine images of 'overlords' wanting parade grounds - the current Wiki.
There are upwards of 200 known examples of this hard won and early landscape earthwork. The early to mid Neolithic enjoyed still enjoyed forests and scrub interstitial. Parades are very human and not a jarring concept, but post Mesolithic clans might easily doubt a would-be leader's judgement regarding excessive bank and ditch circumferences. Individuals could simply disappear into the quiet and croft. I think that it is also easy to see that parades do not need 9.7km earthwork lines to be majestic or compelling, but do need more than 46m; and that parades that pass over rivers would arrive as 'pétards mouillés' more than respectable heroes or dynamic energies from within Mother Nature's array of lifeforces.
I propose the "Transport Dragon Run' as an alternative explanation to 'Cursus', and those who have read my explanation of the 'Pedestal circle' (Causewayed enclosure) will no doubt already see how the two can be linked and phase-change from circle into elongated oblong.
In the text for the associated post on the anterior earthworks of 'Pedestal circles' (Causewayed Enclosures), I offer arguments that the circles were pedestals for 'Transport Dragons'. Each pedestal had it's own exit (causeway) accessed exclusively by each gathered Transport Dragon. Transport Dragons can surge forwards with ease, perhaps reverse with difficulty (people inside walking backwards or turning whilst holding the interior frame structure) and shuffle sideways with a clumsy fall. From these early circular earthworks, gathered residual Transport Dragons could meet to trade, and mix with newcomers and sedentary crofters who had lost their implicit association with a mythological clan frame. The ability for each Transport Dragon to rush down and tangentially out of a causeway, gave the Pedestal rings a military capacity which could be applied to assure a traditional use and respect for the animate landscape (free riverside passage and so on). Now, if circles were the traditional way for clans of Transport Dragons to meet, then there were downsides that might appear over time. Pedestal circles were static, and the new sedentary populations may not witness the power potential of the form. Likewise, some Transport Dragons may slow down to a point that they loose their vitality, and the emergent properties of several strong legs powering a weighted ornamental and mythological frame might suffer from fitness issues (varied rupestra and ceramic sculptures from the Neolithic can be seen to depict overweight individuals). Here, the Cursus/Transport Dragon Run was in effect an extended Pedestal Circle, with the new interior space perfect for training and displays of acumen, stealth, resilience and sheer power.
As the landscape slowed and the cadence of long journeys reduced down, some Transport Dragons localised to help with earthworks, post glacial monolith moving, clapper bridge adjustment and earth and tree moving around rivers. Being guardians of a 'Transport Dragon Run' enabled these residual clans to retain their local meaning and the idiosyncratic belief systems of each mythical frame from specific deep human prehistories. This desire to remain alive with past and future ideas and beliefs and holistically vital for practical culture would in my mind be enough to motivate this subset of the population to stay strong and dig and build without being threatened or conned.
The above image shows a Transport Dragon Run many years into its period of use. It has lived and it has grown with nature. Three transport Dragons can be seen towards the end of a practise run. For most of the run the fire has been guarded in the sculptured cob jaws as embers of potential energy. On the final 'New Year's' day, they will need to cross the line with the embers turned into a blaze of fire - and here they are practising.
Trade can now be from each end, as can other episodes of people and place. Some Transport Dragon runs are known for endurance (9.7km), some examples for pomp and none lineal runs (Thornborough), and some examples for sprints (46m); some are known for cross-country obstacle, and some also aligned into the spirit of the sun, the moon and the stars. On big days, there were parades along all or a portion of the run. Some Transport Dragons were never raced but simply appeared on banks to interact. Some teams practised on basic frames (illustrated above) which saved the ornamental and meaningful examples for big occasions. Some Transport Dragons stayed local to a dragon run, others dedicated schedules to travel between regional examples. Many locals 'supported' a Transport Dragon without having lived and earned its Mythology. A sense of greater space than a single Neolithic life could know. Of the Transport Dragons that fixed to a place, local services against bandits were offered. This premegalithic Britain was a strong population and landscape role model on display to the watching: for this illustration, 'Saltimbanques', 'Princesses' waiting to be carried, children with outlandish high hats and tasselled sticks, and rowdy early arrivals for the future crowd. To the far side, a group practise a whirling dance around a camp fire, and in the far distance more Transport Dragons are looked at and crafted prior to a breath-taking run of extraordinary technique.
Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year to Flickr and its diverse community. Looking forward...

This impression is captured through camera not post- processing!!!
I visited this spot in 2013 & 2014, and since departing it for 4 odd years a piano has very oddly appeared in a now very sealed building, I mean who carries a very heavy piano INTO a derelict building.
For a change I shot this with my Helios 44m - 58mm vintage lens attached to the front of my Canon 5dsr - I loved the tones it produces.
My new (and first ever) 2019 Calendar is now available to pre-order and you can do so here:
Capturing these layered movements of this Bulova Swiss watch took thirty-two focus stacked images. Though scratched some and dinged a little bit, the brushed metal details and anodized metallic colors are still shiny.

"Whatever the movements of the soul, the spirit, the sensibility that are manifested in one's work, and whether the state is one of anguish or even despair, one's art inevitably bears the sign of... this liberation, this sublimation which evokes in us a finished form."
