Number 1 in my allocated Wooded Buildings theme for this week. The Acorn activity house in the Meridian Park, Peacehave, East Sussex, UK taken in 2015.
The unnoticed, spontaneous cinematic duel that happened at the State Fair. Well-played number 156! Until next time.
Secret number fourteen:
I have a lot to be thankful for.
It's true. I have a fibroadenoma, not breast cancer. I may not have children of my own, but I have nieces and nephews that I love as if they were mine. I may not have a significant other, but I know I am loved. I may not be in the best shape of my life, but I can still walk. I may not be wealthy, but I have the greatest job and work with the best people. And lastly, I have "met" some of the most amazing people ever right here on Flickr. Thank you.
I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving. I know I sure did.
I did #frogfriday over on instagram (www.instagram.com/tylerareber), so I'll do #fawnfriday here. This one is from a few weeks ago, but I liked the pre-dawn tones in this shot. This fawn was hanging out with a large group of deer and a number of other fawns. It got very curious as to what I was, crouching in some nearby tall grass and started cautiously walking closer and giving me a great head-on shot.

Hey everyone,
Montville, Qld, Australia.
Here's my 2nd favourite image from this year.
I haven't actually shared this one yet but I shot it back in May this year on a very cold evening with my mates from DK Photography.
Marcus from The Chapel was kind enough to let us shoot this place and even dimmed the lights on the inside and outside of the chapel for us to get the shots we wanted, A huge thanks to him for letting us shoot here.
I really hope you like this one, Cheers!
CB&Q E7A 9932A makes its station stop at Burlington, IA with the eastbound Nebraska Zephyr on an evening back in Summer of 1964. Soon this Zephyr will highball Burlington, heading east towards Chicago. Next stop is Monmouth, IL 27 miles to the east.

CSX CW44AC #13 chugs the evening away as it sits 2nd of 3 on a grain train ready to be interchanged back to CSX off of RJ Corman in Bowling Green. The 13 along with 25 other YN2 sisters are slated for overhaul in the coming year.
One of the oldest survivors of America's steam railroading era, this locomotive was built 29 years after the steam engine was first developed for transportation. Breese, Kneeland & Company of Jersey City, New Jersey also operated as the New York Locomotive Works and is represented by the No. 73 on the locomotive builders plate. The company used its standard style, based on a design patented by Henry Roe Campbell in 1836. Known as a 4-4-0 "Classic American" for its wheel configuration, this particular locomotive was manufactured in 1857 for the Milwaukee & Mississippi Railroad Company.
Believed to have been named "Spring Green", the locomotive served the upper midwestern United States for more than 30 years. By 1889, the Arizona & Southeastern Railroad Company, which later became the El Paso & Southwestern Railroad (EP&SW), had acquired it and converted it from a wood-burner to a coal-burner. The smokestack was also likely reconfigured from a funnel type to a straight type at that time. Calling it Locomotive No. One, EP&SW utilized it in the development of Bisbee, Arizona and in other mining and industrial operations in the southwest.
EP&SW retired Old Number One after more than 50 years of service, moving it to a park adjacent to company headquarters at 416 N. Stanton Street in 1909. Except for its brief role in the 1938 film "Let Freedom Ring", it remained there until 1960, even after the rail company became part of the Southern Pacific railroad system in 1924. In 1960, the railroad donated it to Texas Western College (now the University of Texas at El Paso), which placed it at the Centennial Museum. In 2000, the City of El Paso received state and national funds to restore the engine to its 1909 appearance, moving it to the present site at the Union Plaza Transit Terminal.

SW7 number 17 at the engine house near the Letterkenny Army Depot. The following is from a Kevin Painter caption on the RRpicturesarchives site:
"The locomotive has 15 stars on each side of the cab to honor 30 US servicemen that perished when a Chinook CH-47D helicopter with the call sign “Extortion 17” was shot down by the Taliban with a rocket propelled grenade on August 6th 2011 in Afghanistan. It was the largest single event loss of American lives in Operation Enduring Freedom. In addition to US military personnel, 7 members of the Afghan National Security Force and a US military working dog were on board. There were no survivors. Each star is named for one of the US human casualties."
What I loved most about the museum was the little acrylic blocks with numbers on them, beside each item. This matched up with the description placed discretely somewhere else..
Within ten minutes (I checked) of otter number 3 hopping down from its boulder and swimming off, number 4 appeared on the edge of the water! But this one made its way up the shore to a nice spot with a comfy bed of seaweed in between the rocks, and only 20 metres or so in front of us!
With 10 days left in 2024 I will be posting my favorite photo from March. March takes us over Raton Pass and into remote New Mexico to see the blade fall over the Amtrak Southwest Chief at West Levy. Wheeler Walz and I made an impromptu trip to see the few remaining Santa Fe century old semaphore signals before they inevitably fall for good.
This gorgeous building in Montreal is both restaurant and hotel! Gotta love all the detailed architecture!
Beautiful sunset..... we were looking to find the most beautiful one....And she is right by my side:)
Still my favorite :)
Without cats this one, the sound is a lil bit louder...
Our new video of the matte black 599 GTO.
For those who still have not whatched it, have fun :D

Just as well my street address is '21'!
It is a house number on a oval ceramic 'plate' made by David Sharp Pottery in Rye, Sussex, UK. My late mother bought it on one of her two trips to the UK.
Explored as part of the Flickr 21st birthday on 09/02/2025.
