This photograph was taken this morning from the Heritage Bridge looking towards Orchid Country Club and beyond before sunrise.
The sun was rising below the horizon, and illuminated various clouds and cloudlets of interesting shapes and shades. The colourful clouds were progressively illuminated, with the mirror-like reflections providing added interests to the captivating landscape. The ripples in the foreground, in the middle of the photograph, were probably caused by a fish in the reservoir.
Best wishes for a wonderful weekend!
Tool is an American rock band
Tool formed in Los Angeles in 1991, in the middle of the grunge era. Vocalist Maynard James Keenan, drummer Danny Carey, guitarist Adam Jones and bassist Paul D'Amour managed to forge a terrifying, claustrophobic sound, the ideal soundtrack for the insanity of an inmate confined in solitary confinement. It is a highly psychological music, which seems to want to open the most hidden ravines of the human psyche, where evil hatches waiting to be triggered by an external stimulus. The sound of Tool does not just reproduce the teachings of the masters of the 70s (certainly Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and Blue Oyster Cult), but assimilates the characters of a series of bands that have made the history of the last 20 years of extreme rock .
The aggressiveness of Metallica, the darkness of the Swans, the barbarism of the first Soundgarden, the tediousness of Godflesh echo in a highly spectacular sonic mosaic, somewhat in contradiction with the intent of the band to make existential music. What distinguishes Tool from the myriad of "hard" bands that populated the charts in those years, is the recovery of the progressive 70s, which can already be felt in the first compositions, but which will undeniably reveal itself in the last album, Lateralus.

I was really drawn to this progression of colours, and I think the lensbaby really emphasizes it.

This photograph was taken at dawn this morning at Lower Seletar Reservoir looking towards Orchid Country Club and Heritage Bridge (on the right).
This photograph captured the progressively illuminated and drifting clouds in the dawn sky and the Bridge. The mirror-like surface of the reservoir provided an enchanting view of the serene landscape.
Best wishes for a wonderful weekend!!
I liked this frame of the Annapurna lit in the morning light as it shows how from right to left the life sustaining nature of the mountains change. Annapurna has one of the high number of climbing fatalities in the world, however as one comes little further away from it, the green cover is better and also life sustaining. I also love how this image is tricking us to believe that all the mountains in it are of the same height, while in reality, Annapurna towers above them as the 10th highest mountain at 8,091m

Le château Les Bernardières (ou des Bernardières) a été construit au 12ème siècle, surplombant une route commerciale qui longeait la vallée de la Nizonne.
Il est fortifié sur un plan défensif au XIVème, durant la guerre de Cent ans, afin de se protéger des anglais qui revendiquent l'Aquitaine.
C'est ici, en 1377, que Bertrand du Guesclin bat les troupes Anglaises.
Au XVIème siècle, Antoine d'Authon, seigneur des Bernardières, après avoir vendu son château,
arme un navire en 1518. Dabord corsaire, il termine en 1546 comme pacha d'Alger et amiral de la flotte ottomane sous le nom de Barberousse II .
Reconstruit au XVIIe siècle, le château Les Bernardières, évolue progressivement en demeure de style Renaissance.
Château Les Bernardières (or des Bernardières) was built in the 12th century, overlooking a trade route that ran along the Nizonne valley.
It was fortified on a defensive level in the 14th century, during the Hundred Years War, in order to protect itself from the English who claimed Aquitaine.
It was here, in 1377, that Bertrand du Guesclin defeated the English troops.
In the 16th century, Antoine d'Authon, lord of Bernardières, after having sold his castle,
armed a ship in 1518. First privateer, he finished in 1546 as pasha of Algiers and admiral of the Ottoman fleet under the name of Barbarossa II.
Rebuilt in the 17th century, the Château Les Bernardières gradually evolved into a Renaissance-style residence.
Mons
Nouvelle gare | New station
Située à proximité du centre de la ville de Mons, la gare fut mise en service en 1841 par les Chemins de fer de l'État belge et reconstruite à trois reprises depuis lors.
Le troisième bâtiment, qui datait de 1952, a été démoli en 2013 puis est progressivement remplacé par une nouvelle gare, conçue par l'architecte Santiago Calatrava ; le budget, prévu à 37 millions d'euros en 2006, atteint 480 millions en 2024 (en fin de chantier), soit 13 fois le montant initial.
En août 2023, la fin des travaux de la nouvelle gare (prévue à l'origine pour début 2015) est annoncée pour février 2024. En mai 2024, le chantier « touche à sa fin». La nouvelle gare a finalement été mise en service le 18 décembre 2024 et sera inaugurée le 31 janvier 2025.

---------------
Located near the centre of the city of Mons, the station was opened in 1841 by the Belgian State Railways and has been rebuilt three times since then.
The third building, which dated from 1952, was demolished in 2013 to be gradually replaced by a new station, designed by the Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava; the budget, planned at 37 million euros in 2006, reached 480 million in 2024 (at the end of the construction), i.e. 13 times the initial amount.
In August 2023, the end of the work on the new station (originally planned for early 2015) was announced for February 2024. In May 2024, the construction site "neared its end".
The new station was finally opened on 18 December 2024 and will be inaugurated on 31 January 2025.

Lutry (Suisse) - Le festival musical la « Folle semaine » de Lutry (2019) s’est terminé avec quatre concerts, dont celui du bassiste Achille Ouattara accompagné de la chanteuse Paméla et Moïse (le batteur hors champ).
Des musiciens émérites qui pour la circonstance, se sont associés avec trois autres guitaristes (également hors-champ) rencontrés pendant le festival. On a eu droit à un concert unique et mémorable d’Afro-Funk. Mais pendant la « balance » (réglage de la sono), ils se sont amusés en reprenant des titres de rockprogressistes et sont partis dans un délire sur du jazz fusion. Et le tout dans la bonne humeur. Cette photo a été prise au début du concert avant que la lumière ne devienne trop ingérable en raison de la faiblesse du matériel d’éclairage.

Lutry (Switzerland) - The Lutry "Folle Semaine" music festival (2019) ended with four concerts, including that of bassist Achille Ouattara accompanied by singer Paméla and Moïse (the drummer off camera).
Distinguished musicians who for the occasion were joined by three other guitarists (also off-screen) met during the festival. We were treated to a unique and memorable Afro-Funk concert. But during the "balance" (adjustment of the sound system), they had fun by taking up progressive rock titles and went into a delirium on jazz fusion. And all in a good mood. This photo was taken at the start of the concert before the light became too unmanageable due to poor lighting equipment.
SSC - Something Old Something New
For Old I have a collection of old 45 singles here featuring Great Balls of Fire by Jerry Lee Lewis and for New my iPhone set to play internet music. I decided to include the journey in between with a selection of CDs here featuring Ray Charles' last Album Genius Loves Company then moving on to my iPod which unfortunately is not functioning correctly at the moment. The title is a nod to the 70s genre of ProgRock.

Apologies, just realised that I have strayed from the brief, shouldn't have had the bit in the middle.
Happy Valentine's Day to everyone, especially to those who are single. This day kind of sucks hey ;).
On this day to celebrate love, I would like to share a story about my son Micah who is 6 years old and severely autistic. He has been predominantly non-verbal but is progressively saying more words. Micah said mummy to me for the first time today <3. A greater love I could not have in my life. Cherish the moments and appreciate love in all its forms - there could be no greater gift on Valentine's Day for me.
A quiet Sunday afternoon at Northern Industrial Sands finds a couple of SD40M-2's sandwiching PGR 42 SD38-2 (ex-Reserve Mining 1242) on a train tied down for the weekend along with Wisconsin Northern 1501 GP15-1 'City of Bloomer' with a lone box car.
