...a new camera...finally. I had my heart set on a dslr, but since I can't afford one at the moment, I dropped a few bucks on a Nikon Coolpix 530, which is considered a bridge camera, bridging the gap between p&s and dslr. I'm sure for most of you, this camera would be a huge step down, but for me, it's a huge upgrade. Like moving from a shack into a nice 3 bedroom house...not the mansion I wanted, but enough comforts to keep me content for now ;-)
I like the fact that there is a macro attachment I could order for this camera. Also has manual settings, along with a descent zoom. And one of my favorites...the lens is not scratched lol! My old little camera had a big scratch at the center top of the lens, and a blur spot to the side where a raven pecked it (long story).
I bought this the night before last, spent yesterday shooting...closeups, foliage, the kids...getting to know my way around it. I'm hoping for a nice sunset tonight, but I don't know..the sky looks a little too clear ;-)
I'm off to catch up with everyone. I hope you had a great start to the new week :-)

Funny twist to the Test of Courage summer activity. The challenge is to shave the leg of Karakasa, the umbrella demon (´ᗜ｀)ゞ

After all the hot dry weather we've had, there are dry leaves all over the ground - I think autumn is arriving early. And as long as it doesn't get hot again, I will be over the moon to welcome autumn :)

A fledgling Northern Mockingbird tests and stretches his wings before making a short flight. Check it out -- you can see the bone structure since he's not fully feathered!
With light fading fast 37219 leads 37610 into the passing loop at Dawlish Warren. They were working the 3Q52 2036 ExRS to LSKD track tester.
Good advice - test the harness *before* you get out there.

When i was grovelling in the woods over a week ago for my first Bluebell shot of the season I have to admit age and some limitations didn't help but I do love vintage bokeh though was finding it extra difficult.. Jonathan bought this lens for my birthday which incidentally is today, because I had looked at many reviews and thought the auto focus might help in this new lens, length 135mm f/1.8.. It was ordered one day and delivered the next and in time for me to test that is was fine. So the other day when i went the first of two short walks. I was able with the Sony A7RM3 to auto focus on the flower I wished, I then had the facility to override the auto focus using manual focus DMF in the camera settings and also bought up the focus magnifier to tweak where I wanted it sharp. It definitely is not vintage but I personally still loved the painterly bokeh I was able to get but with a little help initially from the auto focus ability of the lens. The new lens is a Samyang 135mm f1.8 and I will hopefully get some portrait shots too which is one of its main strengths but I don’t use any lens conventionally tbh….
Freshly arrived on ONR's property in Rouyn-Noranda the night before, extra CN Test train 4791 is splitting the decommissioned ABS signals in front of the old T&NO station at Temagami. CN's Test train is just back from a "milk run" in Northern Quebec, having tested the La Tuque, Saint-Maurice, Taschereau, Chapais, Matagami and Val-d'Or subdivisions. The ONR scheduled to test their entire network before handing it back to CN a couple of days later in Hearst.

New 500mm 4.5 / trying to figure out if it is as sharp as the 150-450 wide open, it is close between the two I think. Next I need to take some shots on apsc
Testing a new lens, not as sharp as I’d hope for its first use but totally my fault. I was in aperture priority instead of manual and the shutter was a little slow for handheld. This is my default test location, it’s close to the house.
BNSF's RSP38-2 moves around the Westwood yard and onto the main. Crews were testing it to make sure it works in case it is needed later in the season.

Metra MPI MP36PH-3S 402 was out and about on a joy ride shortly after delivery. It was passing the Stone Avenue stop on the BNSF Chicago Subdivision in 2003.
BNSF wasn't impressed with these things and Metra eventually reassigned them to other lines.
A dial test indicator consists of a gauge; on the gauge is a pin level mounted on a spring. When the pin contacts a surface, pressure forces the pin lever up, causing the dial gauge to move. Numbers marked on the perimeter of the dial test indicator display the amount of pressure applied to the pin lever.
