loggers cutting this tract of land found this old house deep in the woods. If you look close there's a vulture on the chimney
I am now able to explore more in-depth places that I have photographed in years past when visiting my son in Illinois. Within an hours drive, there are a number of forest preserves and state parks that blend the human and natural history of the state.
One of my favorites is Lake of the Woods Forest Preserve where trails wind through dense vegetation along the Sangamon River, linking a museum with botanical gardens and the lake with fishing and paddle boats. An old covered bridge spans the river to provide access to the park's amenities.
Yesterday, I played around with the multiple exposure app on my phone, which is becoming my go-to camera these days. I'm pleased with the results so far.
Rediscovering my big girls.........the Iple resin really does photograph beautifully. Add the gorgeous face up by Lyn and you have a totally photogenic subject.
Daniel Arsham: Relics in the Landscape is an exhibition at Yorkshire Sculpture Park, showcasing six bronze sculptures in the park's Formal Garden. The works explore "fictional archaeology," presenting decayed cultural objects as if rediscovered in the future. Highlights include eroded sculptures of a bicycle, Bugs Bunny, and ancient statues, blending past, present, and future themes. The exhibition runs until 30 March 2025.

Some more floral texture, or in other words 'Welcome to the jungle'. I am about to go home now. See you all tomorrow. Be good!
'Pistols, red flowers and pitchdark dense forrests
Bright heavy metal and sharp shiny lenses
Sinister green plants of some gruesome king
These are a few of my favourite things.'
... Yes, I got inspired again. hehe...
(Rediscovering) Fuiji XE-1 + Fujinon XF 35mm f/1.4
Fuji XE-1+Fujinon 35mm 1.4 is an extraordinary photographic tool. Lightweight, low light champion, fantastic colour, contrast and bokeh. I deeply regret that I let it go in order to fund the purchase of a new camera. I'm restless with cameras and lenses. After a while the itch to shoot with a new camera and a different set of lenses becomes very strong. Every camera and lens has it's own secrets and mysteries waiting to be discovered. In the past couple of years I've briefly loved and care-lessly parted company with half a dozen cameras and close to three dozen lenses. Nikon, Fuji, Canon and now...Sony. I dream of the time I can begin shooting with Leica and Hasselblad!
This is my first microscale ever; As a matter of fact, I think it's my first non minifigure-scale build in years. Trying to get the hang on it. Let's make sure I do seconds :D

This is a rediscovered print of 8 x class 37’s all in their shiny new GIF liveries. I recall that I went all the way out to Spain to photograph the class 37’s & 58’s that had been repainted in the blue livery of GIF, Continental rail and sent out there to assist in the building of a new high speed route between Madrid & Barcelona.
A total of 14 heavyweight class 37/7’s and 8 class 58’s were repainted and shipped out there between 2001 and 2005.
Our first morning saw us at the depot near Lleida which was one of 2 locations the locos were serviced and stabled between duties.
What I can recall is taking this photo and being on print film I wound on and the winder of my trusty Pentax ME Super snapped!
I was gutted and didn’t even note the details of the locos in the line up!
With only 2 shots in the bag on the first day the rest of my trip was not that enjoyable as I then became the designated driver of our little group and had to suffer watching the many freights with class 37’s on them pass me by at the locations we found between Calatayud and Zaragoza.
I cannot even be certain of the date of this image!
We did visit Zaragoza and tried to find a camera dealership that could repair or replace the winder but we were out of luck.

A tough conversation with someone I admire last week. This week, is a new week, refocusing and finding inspiration in my own little world and rediscovering everything I love about photography.
Another rediscovered photo first lost to a failed back up drive containing a few years worth of RAW files and a lot more.

I rediscovered this building today on a trip back from the dentist. Its been in this state for at least 10 years, I was quite surprised that its still standing. I only had a 40mm micro with me, but at least I had my camera. I not sure what the building was, I think it may have been used as an hotel at so point.

In the south of Laos, in Champasak Province near the Cambodian border, some 200 km from Angkor Wat and about a one hour drive from Pakse on a good road, is the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Vat Phou. It is an exceptional archeological site originating in the 6th century and thriving until the 15th Century. Its influences come from Khmer, Hindu, and Buddhist traditions that blend elegantly in its architectural, ritualistic, and artistic designs. Construction on what we see today as Vat Phou started around 1000AD, and bears clear visions of Hinduism. Taking advantage of a natural axis from Phou Kao Mountain - from which flows a natural spring that is still considered sacred nowadays - to the Mekong River, the ancient khmers designed a geometric pattern of temples, shrines, and man-made waterways. The deliberately chosen location of Vat Phou along an east – west axis, is coupled with the fact that the peak of Phou Kao Mountain is shaped like a lingam. Such a phallic shape is usually associated with the Hindu God Shiva, as is the worship of the rising sun, hence the east – west alignment of the temple. After centuries of lying in ruin, hidden within the jungle, a French explorer, Henri Pamentier, rediscovered Vat Phou in 1914. After photographing the site, it once again disappeared form the world’s consciousness. Interest resurrected itself again in the mid 1980’s when UNESCO initiated an archaeological survey of the site. This survey led to heritage legislation being implemented, with the conferring of protected status being given to the site in 2001.
Photo of the northern palace of the World Heritage Site of Vat Phou in Champasak - Laos. In the background the Phou Kao Mountain. The walls of the northern palace's corridor are laterite, while those of the southern palace are sandstone. The northern building is now in better condition. The palaces are made in the early Angkor Wat style. Vat Phou in Champasak is a scaled down version of Angkor Wat but that can only mean a change for an almost tourist free experience at a one of the most significant Buddhist religious sites of Laos. I enjoy to photograph ruins, trying to catch that ancient atmosphere. Here you don't feel like a tourist but more like an explorer.
Het Wat Phou tempelcomplex ligt op een uurtje fietsen vanaf Champasak. Een fiets kun je voor 0,50 per dag huren via je guesthouse. Je kunt Wat Phou ook met een gecharterde tuk-tuk bereiken. Wat Phou betekent in het Laotiaans bergklooster. De Wat Phou, de meest interessante Khmer-ruine buiten, ligt op 8 kilometer ten zuidwesten van Champasak. Het is in feite een verzameling tempels en heiligdommen aan de voet van de Lingaparvata berg. Het Khmertempelcomplex werd in de 9de eeuw door koning Jayavarman IV als Shiva-heiligdom gebouwd. In vroegere tijden verbond een 200 km lange weg deze tempel met Angkor Wat in Cambodja. Hoewel de plek nu verbonden is met het Theravada Boeddhisme, wijzen zandstenen reliefs erop dat de ruines ooit aan de Hindoe-goden gewijd waren. Met de ondergang van het Angkor rijk werd Wat Phou overwoekerd door de jungle. In 2001 is Wat Phou door UNESCO uitgeroepen tot een World Heritage Site. Met steun van de UNESCO zijn restauratiewerkzaamheden in volle gang. UNESCO heeft inmiddels wel geleerd van eerdere restauratiewerkzaamheden aan Angkor Wat. De inmiddels gestarte herstelwerkzaamheden stuitten daar op opmerkelijk verzet van deze bezoekers. Ze waren ontstemd over de pogingen het overwoekerende oerwoud terug te dringen. Voor hen werden een paar gebouwen ongemoeid gelaten, zodat het beeld gelijk bleef aan de op foto's vastgelegde dromen die ze, eerder thuis hadden gezien. Gelukkig krijg je hier als je door de gedeeltelijk overgroeide ruïnes dwaalt een goede indruk hoe groot het complex geweest moet zijn. Boven op de heuvel staat een verborgen tempel in het oerwoud. Je voelt je even geen toerist maar ontdekkings-reiziger! Vanaf de boven op een heuvel gelegen centrale tempel kijk je uit over een groot deel van het complex en de in de verte gelegen Mekong.
For some unknown reason my fascination with BJds has been rekindled and I've fallen head over heels for DIM dolls and Dollstown. These two stunning DIM dolls recently came to live with me and have faceups by two artists I greatly admire; Esthy and WinterNightPoem-both originally commissioned by NeverTooOld. Thank you so much Gail for letting me adopt these two wonderful girls. I am so in awe of both of them. <3
Rediscovering analog:
Photo taken with Minolta SRT 201, MC Rokkor 100 mm f 2.5, Velvia 50 slide film, no adjustments other than slight crop.
I love the colors, but am not sure whether soft light is the film's strength. Also, the film seems to be extremely sensitive to the slightest overexposure, i.e. washes out immediately. Last, I had the film in the camera for about a year. The exposures taken more than 6 months ago (prior to development) seem useless.
I rediscovered two negatives of photos I had taken of Class 73 locos at Norwood Junction on 8 July 1977. The first one shows 73120 passing on a parcels train. Can anyone advise the significance of the "C3" head code?
73120 was new, as E6026, in April 1966. It became 73120 under TOPS, and then 73209 when operated by Gatwick Express. It was rebuilt as 73961 in 2014. In 2025 it is operated by GBRf and is named "Alison".

An old shot rediscovered whilst searching my Oxford archives for bicycle themed shots for my upcoming Artweeks 'City of Dreaming Tyres' Exhibition. In conjunction with two other Oxford Flickr members I'll be exhibiting at Zappi's Cafe and Bike Zone, St Michael St, Oxford from 17th to 26th May, though it looks like we can continue to use the space for a while after that too.
Obviously no bikes here but I thought a sepia conversion of this shot really should be uploaded as it's one of my favourite views of the Radcliffe Camera.

Vat Phou is known for the intricacy of its carvings. I entered the East West Corridor Northern Palace. High above on the corner was a naga ante-fix "snake heads" staring out onto the grounds warning off any who would come too near. The two tiered triangular pediments form a truss like structure for the roof beams which originally enclosed the great corridors truly giving the impression of a vast temple pointing to the heavens. This was surely Shiva's earthly home. Vat Phou is built largely of sandstone, a medium that lends itself to the elaborate decorative wall carvings which are still observable today. The buildings themselves are miniature in scale, unusually so when measured by the standards of Angkorian construction. These factors have made this temple a pleasure to explore, and have led to its being widely praised as a "precious gem", or the "jewel of Khmer art.". Vat Phou in Champasak is a scaled down version of Angkor Wat but that can only mean a change for an almost tourist free experience at a one of the most significant Buddhist religious sites of Laos.

I rediscovered this image in my archives and thought this would be a good time to post it. This tree was by the main road where I was following some warblers when this Downy Woodpecker landed on it.

The rediscovered bridge
Eyes widened when Horsens Municipality began removing an earthen dam at the Gudenå (River) in the spring to create free passage for, among other things, trout.
A 50 meter long and 14 meter high railway bridge was found under the earth dam, which has been well hidden for 85 years.
I am sure you have all had the same experience : you come across an outfit in your dresser that you have not (for whatever reason) worn in ages. And before putting it on ebay, you decide to put it on one last time and you absolutely love it. Leaving you to wonder why you did not wear it for such a long time.
This outfit was like this!
Hope you like it as much as i did. Hugs Helene
Last year my wife rediscovered this Orchid not knowing it is one of the most elusive species in Floirda and is extremely rare.It grows in mossy sinkholes, cypress knees, and rich hammocks. So this year we went back and pleasantly surprised to find several colonies at different locations not to far from the one we found last year so it looks like it is loving the swamp as much as we do.

I recently rediscovered a pond that I thought had been so badly "refurbished" by its owner that it would never be the same. But I was wrong. After 3 years of nature reclaiming its own, it's better in many ways. This is a red saddlebags dragonfly and I haven't seen them around here before, although I'm sure they are. I earned at least ten itchy bites on this evening, but I had fun.

Having rediscovered some stockings I actually bought some new ones today. The old ones kept falling down so hopefully these will be better.

"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life. " ~Berthold Auerbach
Recently, I have been listening to all kind of music and finally received my new In-Ear Headphones ....I am so happy...they sound excellent. My old ones were hurting my ears. I hated it!
Also, I discoverd the world of NetFlix. I need to catch up with a lot of movies and tv series that I have missed. :)
So music has taken control of this weekend. Hopefully, everybody is enjoying a relaxing Sunday.

Our tree lady finally got a crew out yesterday and took care of all our trees blown down by Hurricane Irma. We can actually see the fig tree now. :-) We decided to leave the tree as is and let the garden lady decide what to do with it. It's still alive and green.
We also got our damaged gutters replaced yesterday. Excellent day!
Early - mid last year I began work on a Tython moc which I didn't get around to completing and scrapped. So I thought I would go and build a moc similar to the one I was building last year. The whole moc is essentially a sized down version of last years.
Last years Tython www.flickr.com/photos/78006269@N04/8429688724/in/set-7215...
Following the sacking of Coruscant in 3651 BBY by the new Sith Empire the Jedi order retreatred to their ancestral home world of Tython. The moc is basically of the Jedi rediscovering Tython following their retreat.
I am quite happy with the outcome of the moc, sadly I thought I had more stems than what I actually have so that is why the floor seems a bit bare,
I would like to thank Dayton for once again doing an amazing job editing, I don't know what I would do without him.
Feedback is greatly Appreciated

After rediscovered the negatives today I can finally post one of my more evocative 'Western' pictures as D1065 'Western Consort' lays down a typical trail of Maybach exhaust as it accelerates out of Paddington on the 13.30 to Penzance and meets D1054 'Western Governor' passing Subway Junction on the ex-09.45 Plymouth.
Alas, like all my colour negatives from 1976 the scans have a huge yellow cast and this is the best I could come up with after much time working in Photoshop.
