The pedestrian walkway under the Hagley Road, Birmingham. Taken while waiting for people to pass the other way as the tunnel is a bit tight for social distancing restrictions.
The tunnel marks the point where the former Harborne branch line passed under the road. It closed as part of the Beeching cuts and was converted into a path in the 1970s.
METRO RAIL SYSTEM , DRIVERLESS, AN ENGINEERING MARVEL.
Great Deal of Planning , sync, co-ordination and Precision image capture of your friendly family in the lead window of a moving train from a lead window of train approaching from opposite direction. In fact, one photographer failed to make the precision shoot.
The fast moving train emerging out of an yet to be completed station was shot from another fast moving train. People you see in the front window are travelers enjoying the exiting city scape. Similarly we were viewing from the fast moving train from the opposite direction. Yet Another Hi tech marvel in Dubai.

I had to atually do some "Honey Dos" last weekend.
You know the ones - Honey do this, Honey do that.
So some paint on metal posts had to be touched up and naturally it was a special paint which I had to hunt down. Made by Resene Paint in New Zealand, it is a metallic paint, and quite stiff as you can see from the picture above, taken after stirring it to try to make the contents evenly dispersed throughout the mix.
For those that are polychromatically challenged, metallic paint has a aluminium type substrate added which gives it a sparkly effect.
Most new cars these days are painted in metallic as often and only white is offered in the "normal" price and any other colour costs extra, perhaps another way that the manufacturers use to surgically remove more $$ from you.
Metallic paint is also called polychromatic or "metal flake" paint.
Historically, it was difficult to achieve an invisible repair if the paint was damaged because it is critical at which angle the flakes in the paint lie. Modern techniques have more or less eliminated this problem. Similarly it was difficult for amateurs to get an evenly dispersed mix of the metallics, and when sprayed on a surface, would clearly show up. Trust me I speak from experience.
It appears that metallic paint use on cars goes back to about 1930 which surprises me.

After finishing the lessons in Scott Kelby's "7-Point System for Adobe Photoshop CS3", I had to go back and revisit some of my older stuff.
I started with this JPG image, adjusted the foreground using Camera RAW and then made another image in Camera RAW and adjusted the sky.
I merged the two images in Photoshop and then darkened the sky, lightened the foreground, desaturated the blues and yellows a tad, etc.
It's not remotely realistic. The sky is pretty dark for an image that's looking right at the sun.
Oh... and if it looks familiar, it's because I did another HDR Version months ago.

Unison is a memory hog... but heck I need my Newsgroups. I guess downloading 2.5 million headers at once will cause a few memory management problems. :-)
Sorry guys, I can't make my mind up so here is a series of dragonfly images I took in my garden. As you can see, it is the same common darter on a garden sculpture but turning just a couple of inches one way or another gave me these different backgrounds.
