A very friendly driver gesturing a friendly symbol. I've noticed that out of all the depots, drivers out of the Port Coquitlam Transit Centre tend to be the most laid-back.

It's a Christmas wreath, however it was seen on a rural walk away from any housing, at Easter time, so a bit of a mystery how it came to be there.

out and about, abroad in the big city. shopping,walking, talking. seeing, doing, being. this time is all we have, use it well.
Ooooppppssss!!! Of course, I planned to focus on the flower in the foreground, but the auto focus thought otherwise... Still, I just love the colors here... :)
The Royal Crescent is a residential road of 30 houses, laid out in a crescent, in the city of Bath, England. Designed by the architect John Wood the Younger and built between 1767 and 1774, it is among the greatest examples of Georgian architecture to be found in the United Kingdom and is a grade I listed building. The houses have been home to various notable people for over 200 years. Changes have been made to the interiors, however the facade remains much as it was when it was built.
The Royal Crescent now include a hotel and museum with some of the houses being converted into flats and offices. The buildings have been used as a location for several films and television programs.
It was originally called just The Crescent and the adjective Royal was added at the end of the 18th century after Prince Frederick, Duke of York and Albany had lived at numbers 1 and 16. Wood designed the great curved façade of what appears to be about 30 three storey houses with Ionic columns on a rusticated ground floor. The columns are 30 inches (76 cm) in diameter reaching 47 feet (14.3 m) and there are 114 in total, each with an entablature 5 feet (1.5 m) deep. The central house has two sets of coupled columns.
Each purchaser bought a certain length of the façade, and then employed their own architect to build a house to their own specifications behind it; hence what appears to be two houses is sometimes one. This system of town planning is betrayed at the rear of the crescent: while the front is completely uniform and symmetrical, the rear is a mixture of differing roof heights, juxtapositions and fenestration. This "Queen Anne fronts and Mary-Anne backs" architecture occurs repeatedly in Bath.
Together with his father John Wood, the Elder, John Wood the Younger was interested in occult and masonic symbolism; perhaps their creation of largest scale was their joint design of the Royal Crescent and the nearby Circus (originally called "the King's Circus"), which from the air can be observed to be a giant circle and crescent, symbolising the soleil-lune, the sun and moon. The Circus, along with Gay Street and Queen Square, forms a key shape which is also a masonic symbol.
In front of the Royal Crescent is a Ha-ha, a trench on which the inner side of which is vertical and faced with stone, with the outer face sloped and turfed, making the trench, in effect, a sunken fence or retaining wall. The ha-ha is designed not to interrupt the view from Royal Victoria Park, and to be invisible until seen from close by. It is not known whether it was contemporary with the building of the Royal Crescent, however it is known that when it was first built it was deeper than it is at present. (Excerpted from Wikipedia)
A similar view of the unfinished interior of the sit-out. The space was designed based on measurements taken from the future users so there's just the right space so sit across the sit-out, and small windows just above shoulder height to cast light on to whatever its users are reading.
Here is my next shot from the London 2012 Olympic beach volleyball session that we attended. This is the American pair of April Ross (in the red hat) and Jennifer Kessy (in the white hat) during their round of 16 match against Simone Kuhn and Nadine Zumkehr of Switzerland. The US pair won the match. The final score was 2-0 (21-15 21-19) and they then went on to take the silver medal.
Each evening of the games we logged on to the ticketing website and attempted to get tickets for various events that had more tickets being released. After entering the details of what you wanted you had to leave the PC for around an hour while it went through the motions and then decided there was nothing left! On just the one occasion tickets came available....and I almost fell off the sofa. So at 11.30pm the night before we secured three tickets for the beach volleyball. An afternoon off work was swiftly arranged and off we went.
When we arrived we found that our tickets (block 211, row 31, seats 212-214) were for the press area that had been released when it was realised that they wouldn't be used. The view was very good and we watched one women's and one men's match. Both were close, but not quite close enough and were finished in 2 sets each rather than going to three.

Another 'tweaked' version of a previous upload. I'm starting to get the hang of some of the features in PS that can give my shots a little 'lift'.
In this case I've increased the brightness of the car alone, leaving the sky and foreground just as dark as they were previously.
Since their wings don't shed water, Anhingas dry them out this way soon after a swim or a dive for prey.
Only three vehicles are out of the depot on a sunday, the rest have the day off. Seen here are four ex-Blackburn Wright Eclipse Urban's, an Optare Versa, and a Malton-based Coastliner Eclipse Gemini 1. Please see my other photos for further description and information.

The passing out parade of a group of newly commissioned officers at Sandhurst. These are officers in the Territorial Army who have just marched past the commanding officer having taken the oath to accept their commissions. One of them (the soldiers) belongs to my daughter.
This is not a world I ever expected to come into contact with, let alone have the opportunity to photograph at Sandhurst. It was an amazing day.
These are my business cards/ stickers!
My contact info is printed on each one of the aperture blades.
Super great quality, if you ever need stickers printed make sure to check out standoutstickers.com/ .
Also the top picture is the actual printed sticker, I just took the photo against a piece of tile.

How things have changed, Horse Cove just west of Dawlish was a great place to take pictures , it was best from about 15:00 onwards there was a large flat area above the railway where you could sit and see the trains coming out of Dawlish , my girlfriend Lesley and i spent many happy hours here sunbathing and talking pictures, we never had problems being there, it is right next to the Devon Coastal path the fence having long since fell down. it all changed now the Coastal path is all pallasied fenced , you can still see the spot where we sat but you can not get near it now. in this picture we see Class 47 47576 Kings Lynn passing by with a ballast train. 26/06/1990. O happy days KC.
