It's surprising how often children's toys turn out to be fabulous kitty toys as well. This is supposed to be a North American P-51 Mustang, in case somebody is wondering, and according to Heidi no kitty paw was involved in its bumpy landing!
Meanwhile, I have lots of time to go through my older shots, as my camera needs to be repaired and at the store they told me this could take THREE TO FOUR WEEKS! Well, first-world problems... ;-)

Part of a series of images I hope to collect these next few months.
are you here to make your confession, my son?
yes, father. it's my first time. I'm not sure if I can do it.
of course you can. what are your sins, my son?
you promise not to tell anyone?
you can rely on me. in fact, it's nothing personal at all. go ahead, ask me if I care.
you don't care?
whatever you did is definitely not my problem. no way. isn't that comforting?
somehow it's not exactly what I thought.
you see? I knew I could put your mind at ease.
yeah. something like that.
Walking through some woodland today, and saw this tree. Immediately, it made me think of my older sister and her eyebrow tweezers lol. No stray eyebrow hair allowed.

Fellas, there are like 1/2 dozen threads on this topic. The culprit is Android mobile, and the best guess is that Android bots are just going through people's entire libraries. Probably copying every image as they go, but if you're pro and click through to the details of where your pics are coming from, safe bet it's mobile/Android.
Not that you'd ever learn that from someone authoritative like, say, Flickr support....

After a busy day and thinking that I wouldn't get to upload this week I had a look through the games that we have and came across one of my wife's birthday presents.
As I was struggling for ideas on how to present it I decided to go for diagonal lines and curves.
We did have a Trivial Pursuit box bit unfortunately all the pieces with exception of the cards are missing.
The problem of paper waste is SO BIG it may seem magnified but I'm sad to say it's not...
Used paper towels create 254 million tons of trash every year.
Once used, paper towels cannot be recycled.
As many as 51,000 trees per day are required to replace the number of paper towels that are discarded every day.
A problem, I think you'll agree!

I went out to try to get a photo of Comet C/2022 E3. We had finally gotten a clear night. I had read a few accounts saying that the comet was visible if you looked in the right spot and it was easily visible with binoculars. So, I went out knowing that I was violating one of the cardinal rules of astrophotography - the moon has to be below the horizon. On this night the moon was up at sunset and was setting at 6:00 a.m. I had a 7:00 a.m. meeting so going in the early morning was out of the question (and that was getting awfully close to sunrise anyway). Besides this, it was very cold about 10 degrees(F) with a light wind. I hadn't used my star tracker for a few months and it turned out that the battery was dead. No problem. I brought a backup battery. But....... the wrong cord. Darn! Have to get pictures without the tracker. Then the compass function on my star phone app wouldn't work. I don't know if that was due to the cold - did I say it was penetratingly cold? After turning the compass off and getting everything oriented to the right direction I got the stars lined up and figured out the right spot to look. Then my camera did something it's never done before. (I think I did say that it was damn cold) It wouldn't leave the menu page if I was using the back screen. OK. I'll just turn the back screen off and use the eye piece. Of course all of this is happening along with the usual frustrations of trying to do photography in the dark - though it wasn't as bad as usual due to that bright nearly full moon.
So, you can easily see the comet with binoculars right? Wrong. Not with a nearly full moon up. Eventually I had to give up when my fingers were too numb to run any of the camera functions or the knobs on the tripod, but I couldn't leave without getting a photo of something. The choice was easy - the dastardly moon that had foiled me in getting any photo at all of the comet.
I've been studying recent developments in the whole AI/Midjourney technology thing, and discovered a serious problem: some of my images here on Flickr have been used to "train image-generation AI".
There's a site you can use to find out if any of your work has been used to train the Laion-5B and Laion-400M image datasets: haveibeentrained.com I have found my photographs reproduced in whole, clearly without my permission and in violation of my Intellectual Property Rights.
Class Action lawsuits are ongoing to prevent unauthorized use of people's work, because clearly there need to be some rules about what can and cannot be used to train these datasets. You may want to look to see if any of YOUR photos are used in this way.
I'm contacting management at Flickr to find out what my options are. ALL of my images here on Flickr are marked as Copyrighted, and no unauthorized use of them is permitted. I'm curious to see how Flickr responds to this problem. I'm ready to permanently pull the plug on my Flickr account if I am not satisfied with the outcome. @flickr
Until there is some sort of resolution of this problem, either through class action lawsuits or Flickr safeguarding members work from misappropriation, I will only post a blank grey square every day, indefinitely.

Ook kan ik vaak geen commentaren geven en komt die vervelende panda weer in beeld.

“Wowsers, Sky, what have you been up to? You look shattered.” Asked Bertie as he watched his friend still struggling with a jar of honey.
“I’ve been trying to sort out a problem we have, Bertie. At the moment the problem is winning.”
“Is it anything to do with that jar of honey, and all these tools, Sky?”
“It is all to do with these tools and this jar of honey, plus all the other jars of honey we have in hiding.”
“I borrowed some from Posh rather than start my own honey this morning. I think it was older and I didn’t want his jars to go out of date and then him have to throw it away.”
“That is very good of you, Bertie, to think about Posh’s honey and how bad he would feel having to throw some away. It does not, however, help me to solve this problem any more than all these tools have done.”
“Hello, Bertie, Sky, looks like the man is going to use his picture taking thingy again. What are you doing, Sky?” Asked Posh as he joined his friends sitting down beside them.
“We have a problem, Posh. The people the man buys his groceries from have either changed or they have changed the honey they are supplying. The problem is that I can’t seem to get the top off the jars. I have tried three or it could have been two, I’m not that good at counting, but I do know that I couldn’t get to the honey.”
“I see, yes, it is a different size jar, I can see that. Have you tried the thing that wraps around the top of the jar and sometimes opens it?”
“Of course, it didn’t help. You try and see if you can move it, Posh. You are bigger and stronger than me so you might be able to open it.”
“Very well, you hold onto the jar, Sky, and I’ll try and remove the lid.” Said Posh Bear as he grasped the lid and tried to turn it.
“No, sorry Sky, I can’t move it. We’ll have to come up with another way to open the jar.” Said Posh.
“Can I try, Sky, I might be able to open it for you?” Asked Bertie.
“If Posh can’t open it then I don’t think you’ll be able to, Bertie. I could ask Buttons to open it but he wants to have half the jar every time he opens one.” Said Sky scratching his head with his paw.
“Well, tell him he can’t have half the jar after he has opened it, Sky. Just say that it is wrong to take advantage like that.” Said Bertie trying not to grin.
“Bertie, have you seen the size of that bear? If he says Easter is in December this year, I’m not telling him it isn’t. He is a bit of a grump at any time and anyway, it wouldn’t improve his mood telling him he couldn’t have some honey.” Said Sky now looking desperate.
“Are you sure I can’t try and open it for you, Sky? I wouldn’t want half a jar in payment.” Said Bertie softly.
“I know, Bertie and thank you for your kind offer but I honestly feel that if Posh has tried and I have tried, and failed, then it is going to take someone extra strong to get this open. I wonder if the shop we get our honey from sells a honey jar opener. Maybe that is the answer.” Said Sky slightly brightening up at the idea.
“That would be good long term, Sky, but that won’t help you right now.” Said Posh Bear.
“Thanks Posh, that has really cheered me up. Which school did you go to, to learn such tact and diplomacy? Here comes the man and he is ready for the picture I think.” Said Sky trying to smile and failing.
The photograph taken the bears waited until the man began clear things away before they too started to move. Bertie picked up the jar of honey in his paws, placed it between his leg paws and gripped it tightly then took hold of the lid and twisted. There was a slight hiss, and the lid came off.
“Sky, you need to be careful when you take your jar of honey back as the lid is off.” He said smugly.
“But how, what did you do, how did that…? Stammered Sky.
“It was easy, you just need the knack. Let us go back to your stock and then I’ll show you how it is done on two more jars, one for Posh and the other for me.”
“But, but two jars?” Asked Sky in astonishment.
“Yes, Sky, I think it is about time you began sharing like the rest of us. It is the only way you are going to get any more honey.” Said Bertie firmly.
“I’m going to really enjoy this jar of honey.” Said Posh bear smiling. “A jar of Sky’s honey, that is a first!”
I have a serious problem with Cardinals - whenever I see one I am compelled to take a picture of them. The usual scenario is this: I'm in the middle of tracking another bird that I've been following for countless minutes, waiting for it to show itself. Then along comes this beautiful Cardinal to distract me and it works. Of course as soon as I go to shoot the Cardinal the other bird comes out in the open for a second and naturally I miss the shot. I'm sure the Cardinal knows exactly what it is doing - just look at that expression on his face.
Union Pacific 602 hustles an eastbound flanger into Truckee, California, just as the sun begins to set across the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Dispatcher 74 took a chance having the flangers follow the MRVRO out of Norden. With only a half hour left before the flanger crew would die on the law, any small problem could have tied up the line for hours. The gamble paid off as the flangers were able to get into Truckee, where a fresh crew would turn the train and head back out. The new crew would work throughout the night, battling the winter weather that makes Donner Pass so infamous.

The motorists stopped by this train should accept the fact that the old man isn't going to listen to any complaints!
This was the longest cut that I ever saw come out of the east end of Gibson Autorack Sort Facility. It must have been 200 cars and stretched from the east end, across 165th St, turned to parallel the NS at Osborn, blocked Osborn Street, and blocked 165th St. another time! One giant horseshoe of autoracks...all handled by a single IHB genset!

The problem with finding a good location is the waiting for a good subject to happen by. So the mind turns to other things, like photographing people doing interesting things.

Its grown so big its developed a bit of a droop!
Did think about giving it a bit of a prod to see if I could unbend it but then thought against it as I don't know what creepy crawlies were lurking!
I had a two hour trot round the mountain (well, a teeny weeny part of the mountain), yesterday afternoon and it was fabulous. Icy cold, brilliant sunshine, lots of dogs to talk to and new gardens to scurry around.
And yes, I did have a giggling fit when I was processing this!

El agua es un recurso vital para sobrevivir, pero debido al rápido crecimiento de la población y al cambio climático, el agua –o mejor dicho la falta de ella- se está convirtiendo en un problema que muchos creen podría ser el detonante de más de un conflicto bélico en el futuro.
Para el año 2017, dice la ONU, cerca de 70% de la población global tendrá problemas para acceder al agua dulce.

More First World Pilot Problems: just came off the night shift and noticed that there's a Porter throwing people out the door barely an hour's drive away. Instant dilemma: should I stay (and get some sleep) or should I go? Once again, the answer was self-selecting! Though skydive PC-6s are a dime a dozen in Europe, they're nevertheless still good for a fun afternoon out...
