Normal procedure is for the daily 7A09 07.12 Merehead to Acton to wait in Woodborough loop until the Plymouth to Pad plastic passes ,however on 05/Jan/22 it left the loop early ahead of said plastic unit,only to find itself having to use Hungerford loop to allow the Plymouth to Pad to pass.Here 59202 in charge of todays 7A09 creeps up to the signal with the Tytherington to Appleford being the last occupant of the loop only having just left a short while ago.
A example of two chemists and an intern failing to follow lab procedures and thus, increasing the chances of being in contact with these highly lethal concoctions.
Aside from the college intern wedged in the lab cart, notice that none of them are wearing gloves, no lab coat worn, open-toe sandal, legs exposed to skin reactions and the lab goggles they all wear have no secure sealing around the eyes exponentially increasing the chances of pupils becoming dilated and permanent blindness (refer to the notes attached within image 1.1 above)

Every day at 11:00 a ScotRail Class 156 from Mallaig to Glasgow meets with the Jacobite Steam train (also known as the Hogwarts Express) from Fort William to Mallaig at Glenfinnan, the only station between Fort William to Mallaig with two platforms. There is a slight problem however, as the siding is only long enough for 6 coaches, while the Jacobite is 8 coaches long. So how do these trains pass each other?
1. The Jacobite stops at platform 1 just before the level crossing to platform 2.
2. The ScotRail train enters platform 2 and all disembarking passengers have to quickly cross in front of the stream locomotive.
3. The Jacobite pulls ahead just enough to clear the rear switches while still having coaches on the platform.
4. Now the Class 156 can leave for Glasgow.
5. Later, the steam train continues its journey towards Mallaig. In the meantime, its passengers can visit the small museum in the station building and the historic signal box.
This is repeated EVERY DAY at 11. In the summer, when the Jacobite runs twice per day, probably even more often.
One thing you can (almost) always count on in the Canary Islands is stable weather all year round. And so, almost every day begins with a fantastic sunrise over the sea, if you are on the right side of the island.
I really wanted to capture this morning scene on the kilometre-long sandy beach of Maspalomas on Gran Canaria with my telephoto lens. In doing so, I was eyed critically by some sports enthusiasts and asked if I was photographing their bottoms.

Same procedure as last time: Actually, I wanted to take some pictures of strawberries, but I didn't like them.
Now, this is a bird-vetch :)
Have a wonderful weekend, boys and girls !!
FROZEN SOAP BUBBLES
My personal procedure: Wait until it's -7 to -11 degrees F in northern Colorado, put on all of your North Pole Expedition outer wear and boots, choose one of the 24 different soap bubble solutions that you have created after doing some online research, take it outside and immediately spill some on your back porch, say a naughty word, decide where you want to create your bubble and then change your mind 62 times, set up your tripod and camera exactly where you need it and then try to lower your frozen tripod legs, say 2 naughty words, begin to blow your bubble, watch it blow away in .0000054 mile per hour breeze, say a REALLY naughty word, continue watching your bubbles blow away, finally get a bubble to begin to freeze and begin shooting, watch the crystals form in the bubble and giggle just a bit, watch the bubble pop, blow some new bubbles, watch them pop over and over again, say MANY nasty words in a row, ignore the frostbite now hitting your exposed skin, it just DOESN'T MATTER! ANYTHING FOR THE SHOT!
Repeat this process at night, early in the morning and late in the afternoon over 3 days.

Some shots from skiing at Whistler. Composing a shot is was a little tricky for me while skiing and it went something like this. [Skiing along and come to a great view] stop - stick your poles in the snow - take off your gloves - unzip your camera pocket and take out the camera - try to see something on camera screen (no viewfinder) - too bright outside to see - remove googles and try again - still can't see anything - by now my glasses have darkened to sunglasses like a day at the beach (my glasses are auto tinting and extra sensitive in the cold) - look over my glasses like an old man trying to read the newspaper and finally see something and take a shot - reverse procedure and keep skiing.
They are all very worried about Benny at Ground Control. Could be nothing, but better activate all the emergency procedures. Those also include a rescue expedition to Outpost Alpha. Someone is getting ready for the voyage. Quick, quick! Every minute is precious!

"Same procedure as last year ?" is a catchphrase out of the 18 minute one act play 'Dinner for one'. Dinner for one or Der 90. Geburtstag has played on German television every New Year's Eve since 1972.
Starring Freddie Frinton and May Warden, the film shows an old woman and her butler at a dinner table where they pretend her deceased friends are sitting. The butler asks, "The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?" The woman replies, "The same procedure as every year, James!" Then the butler proceeds to pour many rounds of drinks for the table, impersonating her friends giving toasts, and drinking all of the alcohol himself. The film ends as the very drunk butler walks the woman to her room and asks, "By the way, the same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?" She responds, "The same procedure as every year, James!" He says, winking, "Well, I'll do my very best!"
The 18-minute single-take black-and-white 1963 TV recording featuring British comedians Freddie Frinton and May Warden has become an integral component of the New Year's Eve schedule of several German television stations.

She’s worried by him. He's not looking happy. He seems lost in thought, his mind in a far off place. Yes, she's been watching him, Mrs Claus has. And he's taken to drinking on these long dark nights.
For him, Christmas is complicated this year. The job has always been pretty easy for as long as he can remember. Which is several hundred years. Ever since he took over the job from St Nicholas. But now, and very suddenly.....he's getting cold feet! Of course he tends to the reindeer through the year, and relaxes through the summer with lazy days sitting in the sunshine on the mountainside, cuddled up to Mrs Claus. She's his soul-mate and kindred spirit and they are very much in love. The elfs work away happily in the workshops nearby. There's a great spirit between them and they have a boisterous party in the end hut every Saturday in the summer months, with singing and dancing, and perhaps too much beer.
But all is not well. And it’s not just Christmas 2018 on his mind. Already he’s worried about Christmas 2019 too. Word has it that the major toy suppliers are stockpiling already, causing a shortage of product that’s affecting him now. And what's he going to do if there is a hard Brexit? All the children's gifts are going to be stopped in the French ports it appears . And even if they get through they are warning of long delays and higher prices. Christmas might have to be postponed, or even cancelled. It’s not just about the toys. There’s the staff issue too. He would like to employ more elves to make more toys but his cheap labour of Polish and Romanian elves (There’s also a Syrian elf pretending to be Croatian) will have been forced to go back to their own countries. For God's sake he might even have to employ British elves but they will want higher wages, and manufacturing quality will fall (But at least he can put labels stating "Made in Great Britain" on them to cover up the faults and cracks in them). So many problems. Lord knows, he's even heard that he won't even be able to fly his sleigh across the sky on Christmas Eve because Britain has left the EU. And he will have to pay money for a visa. And the reindeer will need to be quarantined each time they cross a border. And Customs will want to inspect his sack. It all seems so nightmarish.
Yes, Brexit is one headache for Santa, but there's a greater problem on his mind. He's dedicated his life to giving presents to boys and girls all over the world. But this gender equality thing is really vexing him. He is Father Christmas. Yes, a slightly rounded, pale skinned mature gent who loves nothing more than to go He-He-He and make people smile. But he doesn’t adjust to change easily. He’s heard some folk are questioning him. Why does Santa have to be a man, they say? OK, he’s tried to get with this new way of thinking, even suggesting that Mrs Claus comes along on Christmas Eve and helps him get the presents out. A bit of sex equality. He would love her to be there but SHE insists it is a man’s job and she wants to stay in and get the ironing done before they go on holiday on Christmas Day. He’s further stressed that they are asking on social media why he only employs elves and not elfettes? And if he did would they get the same pay? Some are branding him sexist and a misogynist. For generations he has given dolls and more feminine toys to little girls, and cars and construction toys to boys. But now he's not even allowed to think of the children in terms of girls and boys. Who is he to assume they identify with being one or other and give them toys historically associated with their gender? But bad as that is, now there are the ‘others’: neither male or female, despite outward appearances, some who were boys last Christmas, and are now girls....and some who haven't decided yet. How can he possibly plan ahead? Another problem is that there is falling demand for the traditional toys he normally delivers. Kids are so demanding and the number of texts and emails he gets from children demanding…yes DEMANDING the latest smart phone or Playstation console depresses him. Where do they think he will get the money from? And so many have the gall to complain when they don’t get what they want! They even ask to know his Formal Complaint Procedures !!! Who do they think Father Christmas is? The way things are now is just insane for a middle aged gent who has always generously thought on the romantic side of tradition and tried year after year just to make people happy.
Christ! The maniacs in charge of the asylum have already driven him to drink and now they might make him swear in front of Mrs Claus. WTF is going on? How can he single handed keep children's dreams alive when these do-gooders and very unseasonal snowflakes stupidly destroy everything that creates happy, well-rounded children? They will eventually kill Christmas if they get their way. As far as he is concerned if things don’t improve pretty darned quick, he’s had enough and he’s buggering off and he will just find a part-time log cutter’s job somewhere out of the way in Finland. Somewhere he can have a nice quiet, happy life with Mrs Claus and no more late night’s out on Christmas Eve.
Here's wishing all my flickr friends a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year. I hope 2019 smiles better.
(PS I had to put a couple of extra stone on just to look more like the real Santa, and just let my body go. I think it is quite a good likeness now)
My procedure for taking a long exposure is always the same. I look for what I think will be a nice shot, work out the composition and take it as a normal landscape shot. Check the histogram and see if the shot might need a grad or two on, retake it and check the histogram. If everything is okay all I have to do now is work out the correct long exposure, attach the ten stopper, make sure any areas of light leakage are covered and then take the shot. An area that sometimes doesn't get covered is that most ten stop filters come with a warning that they are actually anywhere between nine and a third and ten and two thirds and NOT exactly ten. That can make quite a big difference - 2/3rds of a stop might be several minutes. I tend to add 25% to my B&W ND110 filter. This shot is the 'test' shot for the long exposure that followed. Invariably I prefer the normal shot but sometimes not......
If you haven't seen any of this series before I should add that the tiny figures on top of the hill are actually a group of tourists on a Rabbies Trail Burners trip led by the inimitable Ross Hutton. What a way to see Scotland.

As well as being a heavy train it's also a lengthy one, this was the first time I had seen PFAs as barriers between the KXAs on one of these workings.

One of my stay-at-home photo projects for today was to work out how to create these colourful abstract images..... a new procedure for me and also one that in passing introduced me to the possibilities of "smart objects", They were all based on photos that I took 12 years ago, but as the originals were merely "record shots". I have never used any of them before, and two of the images are based on the same original photograph, but it has been processed differentlyin each case.

Procedure: 1) Object on the paper in the sun. 2) Rinsing the paper with water 3) Let it dry. Take care that the paper is flat. Most of the time I don`t take care of that - I like it wrinkled and with folds.
Prozedere:
Objekt auf dem Papier in der Sonne.
Mit Wasser spülen.
Trocknen lassen
Using Sunprint Kit (Lawrence Hall of Science University of California, Berkley)
Photography Fotografie: φωτός (phōtos) light, Licht γραφή (graphé): drawing, zeichnen = Drawing with light, zeichnen mit Licht.
As it is said that the invention of drawing was to outline the shadows on the wall, so the invention of photography is that light (and shadows) draw on depictions on chemically treated paper.
The purest way of photographic depiction is the photogram: light, in this case natural light, sunlight shines on a light-sensitive paper. The objects to be depicted are put directly on the paper. According to the translucency and to the shadows the objects are making on the paper the light-sensitive layer reacts.
Die ursprünglichste, purste und direkteste Form der fotografischen Abbildung, des Zeichnens mit Licht ist das Fotogramm. Materialien: Lichtsensitives Papier, Fotopapier, Licht, Sonnenlicht, abzubildende Objekte, Wasser (Entwickler) - Das abzubildende Objekt wird direkt auf das Papier gelegt, Entsprechend der Lichtdurchlässigkeit der Objekte und ihrer Schatten reagiert die lichtsensitive Schicht des Papieres mit verschiedenen Helligkeitsabstufungen.
Berühmte Künstler außer Man Ray und Christian Schad zum Beispiel: Pablo Picasso, László Moholy-Nagy, Imogen Cunningham
