A view looking to the south at the Yellow Mounds Overlook. While the day prior had been overcast with off and on drizzling rain, this day was amazing and brought out more vibrant colors in that early morning sunlight. Here I decided to catch a view looking across that prairie grass to the noted yellow mounds and then badlands off in the distance. The blues of the skies would then be that color contrast to complete the image for this landscape in South Dakota.

People said that there are several carnivals in the world. That’s true :-)
But there is only one Binche in the world. And that's true too!
After seven weeks of primary celebrations, the 2018 carnival officially began on February 11th. The carnival festivities will take place from Sunday 11 to Tuesday 13 February.
On dit qu’il y a plusieurs carnavals au monde. C’est vrai :-)
Mais qu’il n’y a qu’un Binche au monde. Et c’est vrai aussi!
Après 7 semaines de soumonces, le carnaval 2018 a officiellement débuté ce 11 février. Les festivités carnavalesques se dérouleront du dimanche 11 au mardi 13 février.
Le carnaval de Binche est reconnu Patrimoine Oral et Immatériel par l'UNESCO en 2003 !

Photos i wasn't sure whether to post or not. Prior to meeting outdoors for a naughty outdoor liaison in a discreet location, the camera came out to snap a few photos of my outfit before other eyes saw it and were extremely turned on by it..The raindrops began to fall steadily and capture a rather moody setting before those black nyloned legs and stiletto heels inspired a further release of another liquid... If anyone has any ideas for settings for naughty settings for another similar set in and around London or Anglesey / North Wales do let me know particularly if you would like to join in (faces can be removed) in a naughtier photoshoot. Feel free to email me.

A fun Saturday morning spent discovering the Prior Park Landscape Garden in Bath. This garden was created in the 1700s by Ralph Allen, a local businessman. He rose from a humble background to become one of the wealthiest men in the country after reorganising the postal system.
In the 1990s, 11.3 hectares (28 acres) of the park and grounds were acquired by the National Trust
The main draw to the garden is this fabulous Palladian bridge, one of only 4 left in the world.

Prior to Covid, whether it was destined as a replacement for 33191 or to run alongside is not clear, but 37985 also gained Westcliff-on-Sea livery. It is pictured operating route 26, of which this Saturday was the last day of operation. It was withdrawn with First Essex's network changes on Easter Sunday.

The Ralston Company's automotive roots stretch right back to the 1910's, but it wasn't until the late 1920's that the low-volume products offered really shone.
Like all luxury automotive companies, however, the Wall Street Crash and ensuing Great Depression upset the grand plans that they had put into place. Prior to WWII the Ralston Group was still based in Finland, where the assembly of it's cars took place. Many of the systems, however, were sourced from other makers or suppliers.
The Ralston Type 6 was launched in 1919, featuring a six-cylinder inline engine produced by engine specialist firm Continental Motors.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental_Motors_Company
The Continental engine was used, at the time, by a large number of small, independent vehicle manufacturers who were not in a position to be able to design, tool and produce their own engines independently.
The Type 6 covered a variety of frame lengths and body styles which evolved through the 1920, all models built in modest numbers. Economic volatility through this period led to the dissolution of many competitors in the luxury field, but Ralston, through modest ambition, was able to ride out the storms, if not able to capitalise fully during the fair weather periods. It must be remembered that Ralston was still manufacturing vehicle frames and finishing most bodies in the native Finland, and this compounded the difficulty in being able to react to rapidly changing market conditions.
Nonetheless, 1927 had been deemed the breakout year. The Type 8 was to be launched in mid 1928, using an engine from luxury competitor Auburn, who were readying their own straight 8, under new ownership by E.L. Cord. The Type 8 chassis was planned to support the 'senior' Ralstons - those Imperials, Limousines and Phaetons demanded by the most exclusive of customers, while the new Type-6 for 1927 would be renamed 'Lynx' and act as the 'junior' Ralston, in support of Roadsters, Speedsters and Coupes, in other words, all the smaller body styles, and in particular those that could be made in series production to help lower the cost.
In the end, things didn't go quite to plan. Both the Type 6 'Lynx' and the grand new Type 8 were launched just in time for the Wall Street Crash and financial crisis. The crisis ultimately killed off even more of the facing competition, but the actions to use type-production bodies on the established Type 6 chassis, along with a 'generic' engine, provided about the safest pathway through this period of automotive history. The image of the marque was upheld by the (barely, if at all profitable) Type 8, this series receiving some of the grandest body designs of any vehicle at this time. All variants of both the senior and junior cars were trimmed and detailed to the highest standards, the additional standardisation and volume of the junior Type 6 Lynx helping to reduce the bespoke items (and cost) on all but the most exclusive of fittings.
The car shown here is the Type 6 Lynx MkI-B of 1929 in Boat-tail Speedster (a bodystyle popular at the time). This model, along with all other revise 'B' models can be identified primarily by the reclined radiator grille and flowing fender design. The Boat-tail speedster was not one of the series production body styles, so production numbers for this variant were quite low. All the chassis and powertrain were shared with volume types, and from the cowl forward, this model is near identical to the much more common 'series' Coupe, Coupe-Cabriolet (both with rumble seats), and the Coupe-Sport.
The Type-6 Lynx was subsequently updated every two to three years up until the outbreak of WWII. At that point, the factory was given over briefly to the production of military vehicles, though a final series 'F', a non-luxury trimmed version of the preceding 1938-'E', and built in Sedan, Cabriolet-Sedan and a limited number of Coupe-Sport vehicles.
After the war production of passenger vehicles was largely transferred to the US (the main customer market), via a head quarter transition to Costa Rica, with the Type-8 (renamed to Tigre in 1938) powered by Cadillac V8 engines, initially at very low volumes. Ralston's first new post-war car was the Tigre MkII of 1954, using a modified 1948-53 Cadillac 'C' Body, frame, engine and underbody (some special versions used the long-wheelbase 'D' Body systems). There was no 'junior' Ralston at this time, and even in the vibrant US-market, total sales remained modest, requiring the continued adoption of major systems from a donor manufacturer.
This Ralston Typ-6 Lynx MkI B Boat-tail Speedster (1929) has be built on Lego miniland scale for Flickr LUGNuts 95th Build Challenge, - 'Designing the Ralston Legacy' - a challenge to design the fictitious Dragon 'Motorcycle' model for the fictitious Ralston company, though any of the previous Ralston challenge vehicles, the Tiger or the Rhino are also eligible to be submitted. The chief stipulation is that the model must feature a 'X' in the styling.
Yellow Jacket for the first stack of the year :D used a new stacking rail for this - Raynox I think it is !
A shot from my archives. This was shot in the Prior Park in Bath. The park is set in a sweeping valley where visitors can enjoy magnificent views of Bath. The mansion in the background is now a Catholic school.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bolton_Abbey
Bolton Abbey is an estate in Wharfedale in North Yorkshire, England, which takes its name from the ruined 12th-century Augustinian monastery now generally known as Bolton Priory. It is adjacent to the village of Bolton Abbey.
Bolton Priory
The monastery was originally founded at Embsay in 1120. Led by a prior, Bolton Abbey was technically a priory, despite its name. It was founded in 1154 by the Augustinian order, on the banks of the River Wharfe. The land at Bolton, as well as other resources, were given to the order by Lady Alice de Romille of Skipton Castle in 1154.[1] In the early 14th century Scottish raiders caused the temporary abandonment of the site and serious structural damage to the priory.[2] The seal of the priory featured the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Child and the phrase sigillum sancte Marie de Bolton.[3]
The nave of the abbey church was in use as a parish church from about 1170 onwards, and survived the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
Building work was still going on at the abbey when the Dissolution of the Monasteries resulted in the termination of the priory in 1539. The east end remains in ruins. A tower, begun in 1520, was left half-standing, and its base was later given a bell-turret and converted into an entrance porch. Most of the remaining church is in the Gothic style of architecture, but more work was done in the Victorian era, including windows by August Pugin.
Bolton Abbey Estate
The Domesday Book lists Bolton Abbey as the caput manor of a multiple estate including 77 carucates of ploughland (9240 acres/3850ha) belonging to Earl Edwin. The estate then comprised Bolton Abbey, Halton East, Embsay, Draughton; Skibeden, Skipton, Low Snaygill, Thorlby; Addingham, Beamsley, Holme, Gargrave; Stainton, Otterburn, Scosthrop, Malham, Anley; Coniston Cold, Hellifield and Hanlith. They were all laid waste in the Harrying of the North and were granted first to The Clamores of Yorkshire [4] until c1090 when transferred to Robert de Romille who moved its center to Skipton Castle. The Romille line died out c1310 so Edward II granted his estates to Robert Clifford.[5] In 1748 Baroness Clifford married William Cavendish so Bolton Abbey Estate therafter belonged to the Dukes of Devonshire until a trust was set up by the 11th Duke of Devonshire turning it over to the Chatsworth Settlement Trustees to steward. The 12 000 hectare/30 000 acre/120 km². Estate has five areas designated as Sites of Special Scientific Interest, including Strid Wood, an ancient woodland (mainly oak), which contains the length of the River Wharfe known as The Strid.
The Embsay & Bolton Abbey Steam Railway currently terminates at Bolton Abbey station one and a half miles/2.5 km from Bolton Priory.
Bolton Abbey in popular culture
The remains of the priory can still be seen, and the setting is immortalised in both in art and poetry. These include a painting by Edwin Landseer and watercolours by J. M. W. Turner one of which, Bolton Abbey, Yorkshire (1809), is held at the British Museum.[6] William Wordsworth's poem The White Doe of Rylstone was inspired by a visit to Bolton Abbey in 1807.[7] In episode 6 of the BBC series The Trip, Bolton Abbey is visited.[8] A blurred photo of the Abbey is on the cover of Faith by The Cure, an album from 1981. The 1985 music video for the Love and Rockets song "If There's A Heaven Above" was filmed at Bolton Abbey

Pure magic of light on Sunday, prior to sunset on Medvednica mountain, high above the inversion that wrapped Zagreb and its surroundings in fog, with a view to Pleševica (778m) in Samobor hills and 100km distant Bjelolasica (1534m) in Gorski Kotar
I took this photo three weeks ago, when the leaves were still on the trees. The geese flew close to the lake shore, and at eye level. What a beautiful sight! Wildwood Park, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, I was scheduled to display models at Model Show Europe, which is dedicated to models of cranes, heavy haulage and earth movers. Sadly the event was cancelled, but hopefully the event will take place next year. This delay has one advantage: I have more time to build new models, including this one. So that I don't have to just plonk the truck on a table, I've built a bit of road to go underneath.
