Space Shuttle pin badge and coin, keepsakes from a fantastic trip to Cape Kennedy Space Centre 6 or 7 years back!
Named as such because Elton John is performing is last UK concert ever as I process and post this while watching Glastonbury.
I think Rocketman is only going to be moving as fast as a tow truck can haul it. Decidedly his days of power and thrust are behind him.
This boat had been sitting in high weeds for a couple of years. A man was bush hogging the property the other day and had to pull this boat out of the weeds in order to mow. As soon as he left, I rushed in to capture the glorious moment. I’m sure it will be another two years before it is mowed again.
Ich wünsche euch allen ein glückliches Neues Jahr!

Welcome to Sydney's 'Sculptures by The Sea', 2024.
See the amazing video:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqBbTA63tns
And for more videos see:
Sculptures are exhibited each year in October & November, along the coastline between Bondi Beach and Tamarama Beach.
This is one of the sculptures at the Tamarama Beach end of the walkway. I photographed this yesterday, Wednesday 30th October, 2024, at sunset.
I have called this sculpture 'Rocketman'. And so here is the amazing 'Rocketman' song by Elton John. Check the video!!

But this sculpture is actually called 'Naught Bondi' by an artist known as Milarky.

Well I decided to end my busy week with a feel good Rocketman image! Such a busy week and tomorrow I have to take some graduation pics for Sam's friend and co-worker. I'm not too crazy about doing it...we'll see! Have a nice weekend everyone! :)
She packed my bags last night, pre-flight
Zero hour, nine A.M.
And I'm gonna be high
As a kite by then
I miss the Earth so much, I miss my wife
It's lonely out in space
On such a timeless flight
And I think it's gonna be a long, long time
'Til touchdown brings me 'round again to find
I'm not the man they think I am at home
Oh, no no no
I'm a rocket man
Rocket man
Burnin' out his fuse up here
- Elton John
I've just received this wonderful Elton John Custom minifigure from @minifigurehq and all I can say is WOW It's an amazing custom which even comes with it's own highly detailed Goodbye Yellow Brick Road custom album tile. Yet again more wonderful work from those peeps @minifigurehq
I feel kinda bad getting the dog to do something she's not supposed to be doing, but her version of 'Rocketman' is soooo much better than Elton's.
I just can't stop creating little scenes, with my custom Elton John minifigure I got from www.minifigures.com/minifigures/
An F/A-18 pilot with VMFA-112 'Cowboys' taxis in at MCAS Miramar with a load of Zuni five-inch high-explosive rockets following a Close Air Support sortie over Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat Center 29 Palms. If I recall correctly, high winds in the target area led to delays in the JTACs on the ground approving the aircraft to strike, which is why these Hornets came back with most of their ordnance.
Shot for my article on VMFA-112 for Combat Aircraft Journal magazine a few years back.
I am of the age that when he and the others aimed for the moon and the stars, they carried my dreams with them. They had the right stuff!

This little contraption is a rocket launcher. It was causing a lot of excitement amongst these little dudes, they were all fighting over who was gong to go next. The mothers decided to make some rules.... one at a time. Little Matt on the right just couldn't contain himself and when it was Dan's chance he did a premature launch himself.
I saw rocketman, I loved it uuwuwuwuwuwuwu
Andddd I might do a movie review idk we’ll see
Btw did I mention I actually really like how this looks aaaaah

Since Richard Branson successfully rocketed into space and landed safely today, I thought it appropriate to post this photograph of Rocket Liquors.

Today we are driving to the Black Rock Desert in Nevada to spent a weekend at Balls 30, a big experimental rocket launch - the same place where Burning Man takes place. Can't wait!
This photo is from last year. About 300 rocketeers gathered to launch high power rockets. At night it's time to relax and socialize. We took along a comfy antique chair from home to shoot portraits on the playa of the Black Rock Desert lakebed. The playa is big, about 200 sq mi (520 km2). Our friend Tony poses with his rocket at moonrise, while glancing at the night sky.
I processed a balanced and a realistic HDR photo from two RAW exposures, blended them selectively, carefully adjusted the color balance and curves, and desaturated the image with a higher contrast except for the person. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

He's not quite up to snuff...but doing much better. Now Penny has goopy eyes and some of the symptoms. I might have to take one of them in to the vet and if I can't get rid of this bug. At least it hasn't been real bad. Well off to work tomorrow...this one to two days per week isn't bad! :) Have a nice evening all! :)
Saturday 21: Rocket is doing very well! Thank you for all the nice comments and well wishes!!! :)
Just to let acouple people know who've asked what kind of dog he is....he's a mini dapple Dachshund. :) Probably weighs about 18 lbs.

Over the weekend we joined a rocket launch event at a big Californian ranch called Snow Ranch, located east of Stockton. The event is organized by LUNAR, the Livermore Unit of the National Association of Rocketry. Tony Cooper, a committee member carries his piñata rocket to the launchpad. Candy rains out of the sky to the delight of the children.

I don’t know about you, but music festivals always seem like busy places to me. Not exactly in keeping with a love of donning outdoor gear and heading for a lonely headland by the ocean. Each year we go to a local festival, entry wristbands provided gratis by the organisers to stop us complaining about the din from the centre stage, which happens to be about four hundred yards from our front garden as the crow flies. Or rather as the rooks fly in their thousands at roosting time each evening. Ali and I dip in and dip out of the show, bemused by the multitude of bright bucket hats and improbable steampunk glasses, feeling like fish out of water in the clothes we wore when we went to do the shopping at Aldi a couple of hours earlier. With a limit of ten thousand revellers, it’s about as much as we can cope with. And only in small doses at that.
So while various people I know, including my own daughter seem quite content to shell out huge wads of money if they’re lucky enough to get through the online queues and hours of hanging on the telephone, the thought of going to a full sized festival scares the living daylights out of me. Crikey, that's at least two song titles in the last sentence. Obviously I’d have been rather keen to see Jimi Hendrix, The Who and Santana at Woodstock amongst others in 1969, but I was only three at the time and I didn’t have a passport yet. Even if I did, I’m not sure my parents would have agreed to me travelling all that way on my own.
But along with seemingly half the nation, we’ll quite happily tune into the televised broadcasts from Glastonbury each June. Last year an eighty year old Paul McCartney took us back to the days I’m not old enough to remember, with a repertoire in which I knew every song as an old friend. And this time it was the farewell concert in this country by Elton John, a man who has an uncanny knack of appealing to every generation. While I’ve never rushed to buy any of his records, it felt like one of those performances that would stay locked in our memories - a special event that transcended music and connected so many people. Watching that joyous sea of souls in the audience, dressed in all manner of colourful and crazy apparel, grinning, singing, crying, making marriage proposals(!), waving at TV cameras and escaping life's shackles in those two hours was what touched me most of all. The enormous outpouring of love was so infinitely palpable, even to those of us watching from our sofas at home. What a wonderful thing to witness at a time when not everything in the world is going entirely swimmingly.
As we watched, twenty year olds belting out each chorus, standing next to seventy year olds doing exactly the same thing, I was struck by how his songs have become a roadmap of peoples’ lives, the emotions from both the performers and the crowd bursting from the screen and into living rooms everywhere. Every song took someone to a memory somewhere back in time it seemed. Happy memories and sad ones, small and insignificant memories and life changing moments all happened to someone to the soundtrack of "Your Song" or "Rocketman." When he was joined by Rina Sawayama for a blast of “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart,” I was immediately transported to that long hot summer of ‘76, watching cracks appear in the ground where there were once puddles and overdosing on Dartmoor blackberries. So many shared moments, so many personal ones, all happening together in those Somerset fields on a Sunday night in June.
And then as he sang “Someone Saved My Life Tonight,” a small wavering voice, one that I know so well piped up from the other half of the sofa. She never remembers the words to songs, and the ones that do come back she habitually puts in the wrong order, quite often deliberately because she knows it drives me to distraction. She even sings the words of one song to the tune of another, just to watch my exasperation levels hit the ceiling. But there in soft tones, “butterfly,” then “fly away,” and “high away” came in regular triplets as I watched her quietly through moistened eyes. “That was always my favourite one,” she confessed after it had finished. I’ve had “Butterfly” in my head for the last few days on permanent loop and I’m not bored of it yet. In fact I might never be. It was only the next day that I realised Elton had made another moment somewhere for someone. One I’ll forever treasure alongside somebody I’ve loved beyond words since the first time she grinned at me across a crowded office all those years ago.
And here’s the butterfly, walking along the Offa's Dyke Path on the border of England and Wales above Hay Bluff, patiently tolerating my preoccupation with landscape photography and grand scenes away from the crowds as she so often does. Thanks to Elton, life’s roadmap has another smiling signpost in the shape of a perfect butterfly. I even rushed out and bought her a copy of the record.
