Still testing out my Kodak Medalist II after several repairs, this time with a more carefully re-spooled roll of film. Looking better so far at least
Took this shot at an industrial park in North Quincy, MA. Nothing exciting, but I was mainly looking for a subject with straight lines at infinity.

Ohman, looking through all my Seattle/Alaska pictures it was SO hard to choose just one to represent my week at sea on my cruise, but I kept coming back to this one. Also in Glacier Bay, Alaska. The water is a blue-green from, get this!, silt from glaciers. It's very reflective and clean, as you can see.
This is actually from last year, but I was saving it for when I didn't have a photo for the Sunday Selfie group! This was on display at the Victorious Festival.
It's a miserable day here at the moment, so it's quite nice to look at a sunny shot!
Better large, a little subtle. Yeah, I know, according to the formula, there's supposed to be a mist-shrouded rock in the foreground somewhere. :) We lost the sky to overcast clouds a few minutes after this, before I could get to the rocks. Actually it didn't look much like this, this is idealized quite a bit, and it became something more in the process, I think (?).
Kehoe Beach, Point Reyes.
Cuckoo wasps, also known as emerald wasps are brilliantly beautiful little explosions of colour - which of course make them excellent subjects to photograph. What isn't as excellent is that they are not much about staying still. Instead they seem to be nearly constantly on the move.
This one however was the exception to the rule. I spotted it on the outside of my mother-in-law's greenhouse and marvelled at it staying still long enough for me to get several promising shots. And after that I decided to try and get it onto my fingertip - which also worked! Once there I could turn it around and find a couple of more angles.
But it still didn't leave so I popped up my mobile and took a couple of shots with that camera just because. And then I walked to the other side of the garden with it on my hand and showed it to my wife describing why it was cool pretty much the same way as I have done above here.
This particular species is one of the very similar ones in what is known as the Chrysis ignita complex. The ever helpful expert Alexander Berg slightly leans towards Chrysis solida so that's what I am thinking as well.

Another picture of Sheffield Park Garden taken in the Autumn.
Portrait rather than landscape this time.
The garden is in East Sussex England.
Reflective Moment by Ruth Gee. The University of Illinois' Robert Allerton Park is adding some new sculptures to the Robert Allerton's original marble ones.
Not something I'd usually bother with, but I was out sans Z6 and thought, 'well, why not give it a go' and set up for this shot using my iPhone 11 Pro max and FiLMiC's 'Firstlight'.
Freightliner racing green class 86 no. 86604 reflects in the dirty wing mirror of my car leading classmate no. 86609 north at Forders Lane, off Marston Lane (Nuneaton) on 19th October 2020 working 4M87 Felixstowe to Trafford Park intermodal.
The Class 86 locomotives built upon the Class 81-5 however they included some improved features such as quieter fans.
The locos were initially notorious for causing track damage due to a large amount of unsprung mass however, after modifications which led to the fitting of large flexicoil springs, the problems diminished. The initial class 86/0 subclass was limited to 85 mph due to the track-wear issue, those which were fitted with flexicoil springs were renumbered into the 86/2 series and were 100mph capable. 3 test bed class 87s were numbered 86101-103 and were 110mph locos.
Many locomotives have been exported to operator Floyd in Hungary and are used on freight trains over there.
The 86/7 subclass of two locomotives was 110mph capable however they were withdrawn in early 2013 due to lack of GSMR fitment. After several unsuccessful attempts to find work for 86701 and 86702, both locomotives were exported.
The 86/6 subclass is limited to 75mph and are used on Freightliner trains on a daily basis as working pairs.
From 2015 to 2019, 86101, 86401 and 87002 were hired in by GBRf in order to work ECS moves between London Euston and Wembley ICD for the Caledonian Sleeper. After the arrival of mk5 stock to the Caledonian Sleeper, 87002, 86101 and 86401 came off lease. 86101 and 87002 were sold to Locomotive Services Limited in Crewe and 86401 was sold to the West Coast Railway Company and is currently based at Carnforth.
A cropped reflection of one of the buildings near the Millender Parking garage downtown in Detroit. I have to thank Derek for suggesting this reflection shot, it came out pretty cool.

I love this little decorative window in our living room. It serves no purpose at all other than to add a nice touch to a blank wall between the living room and the front door. Simple and lovely!

Many thanks as always to those kind enough to comment and fave my photos or even to drop by for a quick peek. It is very much appreciated.

This is one I rarely would submit. In fact, I don't I believe I've ever intentionally posted a selfie, but here's that limited posting. I was bored, waiting for my yearbook students to complete their write-off competitions at the National Journalism Convention held on Friday the 13th in Seattle, WA. I was extremely excited about finally being in an area that was truly exhibiting signs of spring. (We were told to prepare for the usually Seattle rain, but the sun shone the entire time we were there.) I couldn't help snapping pictures through the window, into the courtyard at the Convention Center and this accident was one of the results.
Cliches: reflection, selfie, bokeh Have a wonderful Saturday and HCS!
