Tweemanspolder, Zevenhuizen, The Netherlands.
Four windmills (1722) used to keep the polder dry until replaced by a pump in 1950. They are inhabited, and are still functional.
My son John is in the yellow hat.
John found the sport of rowing after many years of soccer. He fell in love with the sport. It was one of the best sports he could have chosen for building himself and his self confidence. The initiative and drive resulted in his excelling in athletics as well as academics and receiving a full ride scholarship to East Tennessee State University where he is completing his second year in Pre-Med. I would highly recommend rowing to anyone who has access to water and a team.

Vader likes his beer a little bit on the “dark side”, but getting to it's not easy when you're only an inch and a half tall....

One of the best examples of teamwork in action I witnessed on the railroad happened during my trip to Montana last year.
After attending Mass at a quaint church in Thompson Falls, we headed out to Trout Creek to spend the rest of the day. Our first train was westbound manifest NORPAS, which we got crossing the Clark Fork just west of town. Not long after passing our location, we heard the crew call out an emergency over the scanner. The train had lost its air and it wasn't restoring. We decided to venture west to see if we could see what happened. As we were leaving, another westbound, a hotshot Q train, barreled on by wasting no time, but was quickly stopped up around the siding at Tuscor.
We arrived at Noxon, about 15 miles from the border of Idaho, as the crew was assessing the situation. The train had ripped a knuckle within the first 20 cars of its 100+ car train. The unfortunate part of this was that the broken knuckle was on the west side of the car. With three units on the head end and no DPUs, the crew couldn't back the train into the siding at Noxon to set it out. At this point, the dispatcher asked the crew of the Q train to tie down, uncouple their power from their train and assist the ailing NORPAS.
While it took some coordinating on parts of both the crews, the power from the Q train coupled up to the remaining 80 some cars of the NORPAS, pulled the train east to clear the siding switch and then shoved the train into the siding so they could set out the broken car.
By the time the Q train power returned to its train at Tuscor, another westbound manifest, the LAUPAS, had arrived and was in the process of tying their train down. The dispatcher then instructed the crew of the LAUPAS to board the Q train, who would depart Tuscor once he was back together. The Q train would then leave and stop at Noxon to pick up the crew from the NORPAS and ferry them both west to Sandpoint. New crews would be sent to retrieve both trains later in the day. The Q train is seen here crossing the Clark Fork at Noxon with both the NORPAS and LAUPAS crews on board.
This whole fiasco, while unexpected and frustrating for both the crews and the dispatcher, was executed with such professionalism and precision that it not only impressed me, but it solidified the reason why railroads need two people in the cab. Could you imagine how much longer something like this would have taken if each of these trains only had one person in the cab?
We returned to Trout Creek for the remainder of the day and traffic was light, but the weather was absolutely spectacular. This is certainly a memory I intend to preserve going forward!
some weeks ago we were at Hockenheim Historic 2016 www.hockenheim-historic.de
For this scene I have played with the brightness and saturation of the background to give it a bit of a modern and historic flair ;-)
I'm curious about your comments.

The photo: I've discovered this well-functioning team a couple of weeks ago.
This evening I was able to take candid photos of a group having Happy Hour / Trivia Night as part of a team building exercise. A fun event.
Liked the results here of using the gelled CTO warm bounce flash to help add some details to what was a very dark venue there in then bar ... but capturing the moment at high ISO also really allows the full light and various source of light to be scene in the setting. Bouncing the light also keeps all the nice shadows and depth to the scene as well.
One of the teams here was working on coming up to an answer for a question.
A jay carrying acorns to its cache. These birds can carry as many as 5000 of these fruits in a year. They remember where they put most of then but not all, which helps the oak tree to colonise new territory.
In the waining hours, in the last light of the day, I finally took Toby out for a game of fetch.
I throw it, he brings it back - a nightly ritual that never seems to grow old.
Temps were still in the 80s but I couldn't let National Dog Day pass without celebrating in the only way the pup knows.
In the background , Henry snuffles amongst the plants, celebrating the day in his own special way.
Daily Dog Challenge: 2843. "Day of the Dog"
Our Daily Challenge 8/23 - "Walls"
Our humble retraining wall. It came with the house. Not much to look at, but it does the job and so long as it continues to do so there is little chance of our replacing it.
With some down time on the Death Star these wee troopers work together solving this dual ball Labyrinth puzzle.
I was reading a book in the sunroom when I heard a ruckus in a bush outside the window, so I went outside to investigate. As it turned out, a pair of Carolina wrens were busy moving into an old birdhouse that was resting against our house. I immediately grabbed the camera and a lawn chair, and watched as the pair worked together to bring assorted nesting materials to their new home. I watched them for nearly an hour until clouds began to roll in. It was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon.
