Townsville were lucky to host the 6 day "2011 National Water Ski Championships" this Easter weekend.
I went down two days in a row practicing my panning skills...which I tell you where pretty pathetic...not as easy as it looks. I did manage to get a few nice sharp photo's as they passed by at high speed.

*** Biking to the office.
I liked this contrast of suit carrier and old bike especially the old briefcase on the luggage rack :-)
A build for Alego's challenge for french RLOC BrickPirate to build sci-fi speeder using the rotor blade part 62743.
One night I got the urge to make a super sleek, open top racer using my 2 favourite colours (black and dark red). I wanted it to be a really dense, compact build with a smooth upper body and badass looking engine chassis underneath. So I did.

Ich habe kürzlich alle meine alten 4x5 inch schwarzweiß-Filme digitalisiert - und begonnen hat alles 1978 mit dieser alten Speed Graphic mit adaptiertem Aero-Ektar, die mir eine Freundin aus den USA mitgebracht hat
Lately i digitized my old 4x5 inch b&w films. It all began with this old Speed Graphic with an adapted Aero-Ektar a friend brought back from the United States in 1978.
After my speed-visit to the fabulous classic vehicle museum Metropole, Druten, I discovered some twelve classic German Fords. Members of the Dutch Ford Taunus club were enjoying a nice activity there...
This is one of the last Taunus P6 sold in the NL.
The Ford Taunus P6 was available as a 2-door and a 4-door saloon, as a 3-door estate car and as a 2-door coupe. On the base of the Taunus estate also a panel van was for sale.
The P6 had four engine options: 1200, 1300, 1500 and a 1700.
The P6 15m was recognizable by its narrow, rectangular taillights. The bodywork was otherwise identical to the P6 12m.
1498 cc V4 petrol engine.
Performance: 55 bhp.
863 kg.
Production Ford Taunus series: 1939-1994.
Production Ford P6 Taunus 12M series: Sept. 1966-July 1970.
Original old Dutch reg. number: June 18, 1970.
With current owner since June 18, 2016.

Another speeder to add to the grid. It came together during last weekend's 24 hours of Spa-Francorchamps, a GTWC race that I rather enjoyed. So that's the name.
Engines were the first thing to get built, there's a little breakdown of them at the end of the photostream but it's nothing hugely complex. After that it was the front stabilisers and then I realised I needed to connect those parts to some kind of cockpit.
I ended up with quite an industrial-looking cockpit, using my favourite part again, but inverted this time and with the 4-wide speed champions windscreen on top, which was good to use. I have lots of them.
I'll obtain a couple of 2x2 semicircle tiles and switch them out with the round ones at the front, but aside from that this was just a fun little build that I'm happy enough with. Got a decent amount of Star-Warsy greebling in, so hopefully the racing bulls graphics on the wedges can be excused as Fambaas from Naboo, or some other creature from the lore!
There's a couple of pictures with this and the junkyard speeder too, so keep scrolling.
I meant to upload this earlier in the day, the reason I didn't is because I'm already working through speeder number three. This next one is red and certainly not a Ferrari...
Hello, these are two BARC-Speeders from Clone Wars which I have built. There are two Versions: a red and a blue one. Next to them there is a Clone-Officer and ARC-trooper Fives. I‘m really happy with the result and hope you all like it👍😁. If you‘ve got suggestions, write them in the comments below. Bye! 🙋♂️
Transitano al PM Sant'Oreste questi due ETR400 accoppiati in quelli che erano i primi servizi effettuati da una doppia di ElettroTreni in servizio FR sula rete AV. Qui l'ETR400.18 accoppiato con l'ETR400.35 transita effettuando un FR Napoli Centrale - Torino Porta Nuova. Ringrazio per la compagnia gli amici Filippo Cicconetti e Roberto Giovagnorio...

Possibly the biggest, baddest, most bulbous speeder bike to emerge from the drawing boards of Llwyngwril Systems. The Turbinia was based around a massive turbine.
Centuries later, all the evidence left for its existence are these four archive photos. They leave many questions unanswered:
Was the giant turbine some form of centrifugal compressor? If so, were did the all of air go? The nozzles on the rear of the bike are quite small.
As the turbine made up a considerable part of the mass of the speeder bike and was effectively a large gyroscope, how the Turbinia generate enough turning force to manoeuvre?
How did the pilot get up to the cockpit?
The mechanics of the anti-gravity systems needed for the Turbinia to hover are, of course, simple and well known.

For those of you who missed the Poinciana Trees, you’ll be glad to know we have a whole kilometer of them ahead!
A day out in the Cotswolds at the end of November 2024 on the look out for Short-eared Owls.
Eventually mid afternoon a couple of Shorties came into view. They were quite distant.
Short-eared Owls are medium sized Owls with mottled brown bodies, pale under-wings and yellow eyes. They are often seen hunting during the day. In winter, there's an influx of continental birds from Scandinavia, Russia, Iceland to the UK.
I think I was having a "brain fart" as not sure what was going on with the shutter speed/aperture/ISO which were all over the place ?

Speed Limit should be 30 or is it 3? Taken over by vines… kudzu? Poison ivy? Something else? Don’t know, just thought it was neat looking at the time and something that never was scanned or shared 2-3 years ago.
Rey's speeder reminded me of a sunglasses case. And after I saw the movie, the speeder looked like Luke's land speeder flipped on its side. Nevertheless, it is my favorite craft of the entire film.
The design was inspired by de-marco's design.
And coincidentally, Andrew King uploaded his version of Rey's speeder at the same time as me. Check it out!
