Lucky catch: The world record locomotive Siemens ES64U4 (EuroSprinter U4) of ÖBB pushes a RailJet train into Munich Central Station.
This particular locomotive holds the world speed record for electric locomotives, at 357 km/h. The record was set on the high-speed track from Nürnberg to Ingolstadt on Sept. 2nd, 2006, while the loco was still owned by Siemens and carried the number 1216 050.
In May 2008 the ÖBB received the loco, since June 23rd 2008 she runs as 1216 025 for ÖBB.

Back to work after a long weekend I took the evening hours for a ride with the scooter of my son to take some shots. My tour went into the countryside of the Melle-Area in Lower Saxony. Enjoying the warm evening I read that this May is the warmest ever in recorded meteorological history. At least in Northwest Germany. Day temperatures in the mid-twenties and 10+ hours of sunshine are a pleasure for all of us. To be continued...

Without the knife ,this could be just a close up of a rose ,so I drew a cutting knife to show how big the rose is.

“Record Store UK” was a nationwide event that was scheduled for the 18th April but obviously didn’t go ahead.
There is great interest nowadays in vinyl records, cassette tapes and other means of recording music that had been thought of as being largely defunct and this has spawned a wealth of smaller, independent retailers dealing in them.
Vinyl Attraction in Newark had not been opened long and suddenly had to close again due to the lockdown. The window is always very interesting, with many discs and memorabilia featuring many groups and names from my youth, even some records that I actually owned.
The event is put back to June and, as yet, no news as to if it will actually happen.
Happy Window Wednesday!
So... My plan was to do badgers on the Mendips tonight, but they didn't show for what ever reason. Then I remembered the Nightjars were only a fifteen-minute drive away, so off I poodled.
I'd heard one out on the ridge the last time I was there, so I thought I better head in that direction. As I neared the top one flew right past me, I knew then I was in the right place. I stood and waited, but by then the cloud was coming over, and it was getting really dark really quickly, so I thought I'd bang it on the head, pick a better night and try again...
As I walked back to the fence line I could see a tiny blob about the size of a blackbird sat on a post, I couldn't quite make out what it was, so I put the pop-up flash on and hit the shutter button. 1/15 of a second was not ideal... had I thought about it, I could have changed the settings, walked up to the little fella (might even be a female as no obvious white on wing or tail outers) and got a better shot, but I was only thinking bird in flight captures... Anyway, I've now hatched a better plan... :@)
Das Record Rapid ist eines der Papiere, die keinen, oder nur wenig Verzögerer im Lithentwickler benötigen. Easy Lith FT Special enthält jedoch eine größere Menge Kaliumbromid. Dennoch kann dieser Entwickler verwendet werden, das Papier benötigt dann jedoch eine erheblich längere Belichtungszeit. Unabhängig von der Entwicklerabstimmung liegt der Snatch-Point normalerweise bei etwa 10 Minuten. Auch bei einer längeren Belichtungszeit kommen dann die Lichter nicht wesentlich farbiger, es sei denn, es wird ein zweiter Entwickler für die Lichter eingesetzt. Nach der üblichen langen Entwicklungszeit im Lith, bringt der zweite Entwickler allerdings nur wenig Effekt, weil die Lichter schon ausentwickelt sind. Soll ein anderer Ton für die Lichter erzeugt werden, muß die Entwicklungszeit im Lith verkürzt werden, damit der zweite Entwickler noch ausreichend unentwickeltes Silbersalz vorfindet. Allerdings würde dann das, für dieses Papier übliche tiefe Schwarz fehlen. Deshalb braucht es eine kurze Behandlung mit einem Nachbrenner (mit B oder Omega) nach dem Lith. Sobald sich ein tiefes Schwarz in den Schatten zeigt, wird zweimal kurz gespült, bevor im Siena die noch fehlenden Lichter entwickelt werden. Das mag kompliziert klingen, doch erfahrene Lithprinter werden dies nachvollziehen können.
Record Rapid is one of the papers that require little or no restrainer in the lith developer. Easy Lith FT Special, however, contains a larger amount of potassium bromide. Nevertheless, this developer can be used, but the paper then needs a considerably longer exposure time. Regardless of the developer adjustment, the snatch point is usually around 10 minutes. Even with a longer exposure time, the highlights then do not come out much more coloured, unless a second developer is used for the highlights. After the usual long development time in the lith, however, the second developer brings little effect because the highlights are already developed out. If a different tone is to be produced for the highlights, the development time in the lith must be shortened so that the second developer still finds sufficient undeveloped silver salt. However, the deep black that is usual for this paper would then be missing. Therefore, it needs a short treatment with an afterburner (with B or Omega) after the lith. As soon as a deep black appears in the shadows, a short rinse is done twice before the still missing highlights are developed in the Siena developer. This may sound complicated, but experienced lith printers will be able to follow this.

En record a les barquetes que feian companyia els remers en els seus entrenaments diaris.
Tan debó ben aviat poguem gaudir de nou de la seva presència !
Don't laugh... Taken at gone 10:30pm... My first Nightjar ever YAY!! ... Tick. :@)
Think I might have to work on the quality a tad.
