A phonecall from panicked parents! Stetl School has just reported Louis' God Daughter, and her teacher, missing!
Ellis was gone for a week again. He ought to know better. This took me maybe 20 minutes. In addition, Sgt. Philips replaced his cord with a broken one that causes static.

Lexcorp tower, the office of lex Luthor
A phone rings and Luthor, a stone cold man with a hatred for petty disturbances resents that his evening may be ruined by something as pathetic as a phonecall. What’s worse is he knows it’s not business related. For that, he uses a burner. Reluctantly he picks up the phone, lifts it to ear and lips and utters coldly, the words: what?
Bruce: lex Luthor?
Lex: who is this
Bruce: it’s Bruce Wayne. You know my voice
Lex: yes, yes I do. What can I do for you mr wayne. Looking for an investment perhaps?
Whilst on the other end of the line, it may be Bruce’s voice speaking the words, the man scraping his way through a lex corp ventilation system, most certainly does not dress in the sharply fitted suits that Bruce is so fond of but the heavy black and grey attire of the batman.
Bruce: my security service detected an intrusion last night. Some blue prints were stolen from the tech department.
Lex: oh dear. That’s terrible news. Nothing valuable I hope
Bruce: actually they were very valuable. Which is why my company has put so much into tracking down the culprit?
Lex: any luck? I do hope you find them
Bruce: well this is the strange part lex. Your name is written all over the crime scene. Now I’m sure you’re aware that I fully appreciate that you would want to keep this on the down low which is why I’m calling personally
Lex: and of course you assume blindly that your lackies in forensics made the right call? Yes?
Bruce: lex. There’s no reason to deny it. The men who’s prints were found on scene are known associates of yours. There is photographic evidence of you giving these men briefcases. I don’t need to ask what was in them
Lex: no you don’t. Because I’m sure you guessed that they were cases of wine. A gift to be given to an old friend
Bruce: who?
Lex: I’m afraid I haven’t the time for this Bruce. If you wish to make claims as grevious as these, I urge you to, in future go through my lawyers. Thank you good day Bruce
Bruce: lex...
He doesn’t respond. Simply because he has hung up. All Bruce hears is the monotonous tone of the line. Bruce removes the sim from his chunky phone and places it in his utility belt discarding the rest of the oversized piece of yuppie trash. He exits through the ventilation shaft having taken several Polaroid’s of the buildings various labs. He’ll examine them later but for now he has a second matter of business to attend to within metropolis itself

Now, I always had a very strong intuition even when I was a kid. I could sense from a mile if someone was a good person or a bad person. I felt their energy. Also I know when someone past away before I got that certain nasty phonecall, because their spirit came by. I was never scared by it and it became normal thing to me. But lately I have this nasty nightmares... I dream of catastrofes and explosions and people drowning. And as soon as I wake up I tell my girl what I have been dreaming about..just a bad dream ..at first..untill we see it on the news or hear it on the radio. The accident with the ship near Australia where lots of refugees drowned not so long ago..the terrorist attack last week in Russia with the trains etcetera. I hear their screams and feel their fear..and lately it has taken away my own energy..I am tired. most of all there is nothing I can do about it to save them..nobody would believe me and it has already happened. This scares me. I see to much and I don't want to see it Time to create my protective bubble and hold my energy for myself.
Slightly edited shot of the lovely Miss D and her bike, reflected in a puddle in Amsterdam, taken with my Panasonic DMC-FZ8. No editing besides some added contrast&saturation, no magic tricks, no Photoshop :)
I was outside puddle hunting not long ago when the lovely Miss D saw me hunched over a wet spot while biking by, so she came over to dunk my face in the water have a chat with me, we hadn't seen each other in a while and it was very nice catching up with her :)
This photo is dedicated to her and our friendship, even though it's a bit rusty due to life keeping everybody busy and all that, but it's good to know that nice people like you are out there in the best city in the world and you're just one phonecall (and a 10 minute bike ride) away, thank you :)
this is the photo I was talking about yesterday the bokeh in the background is Harrods as seen in my previous post, what I love about this photo is that it turned out exactly as I imagined in my mind :)

Woke up at 4:30 wayyyyy to early and had to drive Don to the airport...he is off fighting windmills again. Couldn't go to sleep when I came back home, so I took my new bff and went playing with the lights hehe
And I have this terrible song on a loop in my brain,
I would never go to work wearing those heels :) I have a secret to tell ...I can't walk on those heels hehe they are like 12 cm and way to much for me, plus Don looks like my kid if I stand beside him wearing those.
I am working from home today, waiting for an important phonecall which tells me if I'm gonna make it or not, so x your fingers for me :) Have a nice day people <3

Today's Carsounds- Tina Turner .... river deep, mountain high
"You start to play it ... and it's like somebody's nightmare. Then suddenly, this woman comes on. Smiling at you, right ? Seeing you ... through the screen. Then when it's over, your phone rings. Someone knows you watched it. And what they say is, "You will die in seven days". And exactly seven days later ..."

After bringing 90 002 back from Crewe following the completion of it's F exam (but omitting a repaint into Abellio GA colours), 57 008 returned whence it came with 90 011 for similar treatment. The 0Z45 Crown Point - Crewe move left Norwich 20 minutes late but by missing out the booked stop at Stowmarket was actually 5 minutes early passing me hard on the heels of 4M81. The shortage of class 90s today forced the cancellation of some services - perhaps a quick phonecall to DBS might be in order?

What he was actually saying was "I want this on Explore, and thats it. No more messing. Just do it Mr. Flickr".
Then again, perhaps not!
In such situations it is always best to keep your important stuff low to the ground.
Shot inside the Magic Kingdom Monorail station.
4 British red phone boxes, on St Mary's Street in Cambridge. These phone boxes are a very popular photo opportunity among the many tourists in Cambridge. I had to wait my turn to photograph these and for the remaining tourists to get out of my picture. As while I was composing, some Japanese visitors decided to get in my shot and stand next to them, jumping the queue to photograph them. I'm quite sure that British Telecom could make more money charging a fee to photograph these, than they make on anyone actually using the telephones in them.
Well, here we go. Has to be done.
The first night itself was horrible. I thought to myself, what the hell? Why did I do this?
I had such a bad feeling about it. I actually cried. But it was too late to change, and I thought I'll get used to it.
Because you can get used to almost everything.
Sure, I had to find another place really quick, the room looked so pretty, not far away from school ..
But I didn't know you. And that's the thing that nobody could tell me about before.
I really - fu* - hate you.
A 50 year old woman, who behaves like a stupid, petulant teenager,
with a blurred mind, located on another planet far, far away, shoud be my "roommate" for now on?
I was so damn friendly. I didn't say a word about the dirt, I cleaned my stuff, cleaned the kitchen, cleaned the bathroom, and what did you say? That this can't go on like that, I was too muddy. (:
I didn't say how ridiculous this was, maybe because I've been a bit speechless.
But what did I do? I silently accepted the famous 'cleaning-plan' you invented. (Check out the thing with 'c' and 'k' !) I so wish I had taken photos of your crappy place before .. But you know exactly how it looked like, how dirty and dusty it was, how insanitary. You know exactly that you've never cleaned the plastic floor with a brush before (I still have to laugh about that) or swiped the staircaise. You told my grandparents that it was sooo long ago when you did it the last time, it really doesn't matter if it will be cleaned or not, right? You know it, which lies you told them, but you know what?
They thought the exact same way I did.
The phonecalls you did, two feet away from my door, not quietly talking to that one senile boyfriend of yours, and the other one who's voice soundet much younger. (You should wrap up used condoms before you throw them in the kitchen garbage, just a little hint for the future.) How you complained about me, using no nice words, how you didn't care if I hear it or not. How you started cooking at 3 am, not caring about if I'd maybe wake up. How you phoned my grandmother, whining about me like a little child, telling lies. Do you really think she didn't tell me? Do you really think that she believed you? Haha! She knows exactly what kind of person you are. How you talked about me to new candidates for the room, again not caring about if I sat in there, listening. Did you know that those people contacted me on the internet, asking what was wrong with you? Haha, you poor, poor woman, go burn in hell! How we had to share the internet, how you said that your skype sessions were more important than my school homework, how I had to start working at 2 am .. Bitch. How you tried to give me a 'smart' look, like I'm the stupid one; I know that you always wanted to do what I do now, but you only work two days a week for a few hours, and then going to some mental institution because you're unable to live you life. Pretty shitty. (: When I get bored from school, I see your fake, ugly face and think: Start learning, quick!
You are FAKE from head to toe, the biggest liar, the most childish, most malicious person I've ever met. And there were people in my life who made six years of school to pure horror, so congrats.
Mabye I had to experience that. Maybe it was necessary for something upcoming.
But I'd never do this again. I feel so sorry for that young girl who has to cope with you now.
I won't miss a thing.
Unfortunately the photos I took with this lens plus the fuji 2x teleconverter were horribly soft and completely unusable (including the ones of Frederica) - either it's broken or just completely useless. Luckily I have one or two un-teleconverted shots (including this one) that are ok.

Sandhill cranes flying in the sunset in Kamloops, BC.
We had been trying to find the cranes for 4 days, without any luck. On the last day, after we had already begun leaving the location, we got a phonecall saying they cranes were indeed there, but hidden from view from the position we had been in. Talk about luck (and very helpful friends)! We had the pleasure of admiring 150-200 cranes for about an hour, before they took off in the sunset!
Scientific name: Grus canadensis

"You got my phonecall then, Kes? You took a while getting here!"
"Tell me about it, Eden, sheesh, what does a girl have to do to get abducted by aliens around here! It took ages!"
"Perhaps they were only after sweet innocent virginal types?"
"Hey!... fair point though - anyhow, let's blow this joint!"
Watching from on high the Martian Leader is not impressed.
Harriet(4) & Ellie(2¾) have been pestering me to take them back down a tunnel ever since the last time- they love being given the chance to muck about with my torch collection. So Sunday I took all 4 kids to visit this legendary Glasgow underground urbex location. They loved it. Today dropping the two wee ones off at the nursery one of the assistants pulled me aside and said "Ellie says you took them down a tunnel on Sunday". Uh oh, I thought... here comes the phonecall to social work... Instead the assistant was wanting details of where it was because she would love to go take a look!
