This safety pin keeps the two cushions together so they won’t slide off the slick plastic chair! Eventually I’ll sew them together.. Other projects are taking precedence now though.
Must measure this to see if it fits the MM parameters!!
yay...It does!! Posting size verification, now.

One hand holds the face. The other keeps the cigarette alive. The entrance does the work of a chair.

New toy. Along with lockdown, partially responsible for the reduction in my photographic output. A handheld shot in poor light.

every morning this place is filled up with fog. this mythical phenomenon is created in the following manner: the bottom of the basin, although the surface is dry, contains a lot of groundwater, and the evaporation of the water over the night forms fog.

The connection of the river Bedón with the sea generates this tongue of stones for the use and enjoyment of its visitors.

After experiencing air issues in Manville Yard, the Q410-14 dug their mid-train DPU out (ES44AH 1776) and placed it on the head end of the train to rectify the issue. This caused significant delays on the Trenton Line, which allowed them to make daylight on the River Sub. Pictured is Q410 passing the Q157 at Ridgefield Park with all three Spirit engines on the head end.
For several weeks now, coming on to nearly 4 months, Journey Beyond Rail's "Indian Pacific" luxurious passenger train has been diverted via Melbourne. Normally, this service runs between Sydney, NSW on the East Coast and Perth, WA on the West Coast of Australia. When travelling within NSW, the train heads west out of Sydney towards Broken Hill close to the South Australian border, then onto Adelaide, thence Perth. However, due to severe rainfall in mid to late October causing multiple washaways to track between Broken Hill & Parkes closing the line; The Indian Pacific would be made to make a deviation. The deviation would be to depart Adelaide and travel towards Melbourne, VIC, rejoining NSW at Albury and continuing north along the Main Southern Line to Goulburn. Due to time restraints, the train from Adelaide to Sydney & vice versa would terminate / originate at Goulburn. After the passengers have disembarked the train, they would join coaches (buses) for the remainder of their journey to Sydney. On one such occasion, we see Pacific National locomotives NR86 & NR28 working train number 3AS8 up the Cullerin Range just south of the temporary terminus of Goulburn. Both locomotives are painted in a special livery, specifically to haul the Indian Pacific, albeit different versions. The difference being in the logos. Once upon a time, the Indian Pacific liveried NR's stood out amongst the rest of the fleet being painted in an all over dark blue, with one even being painted in a bright yellow livery. Now, they wear the Pacific National Corporate colours with Indian Pacific logos. Wednesday, 18th January 2023.

From my Red Water series...I found this holly leaf perched on a small rock in the stream. It reminded me of a coracle that had been pulled ashore. A tricky one to compose, shoot and process; this is focus stack of 2.5, 5 and 15s exposures.
I'm considering changing the bottom garage part to dark bluish grey for some contrast, but haven't decided yet
VWH2098 LK15CWW seen at Finchley Central working on route N20 towards Barnet Church and then Barnet Hospital.
At a driver's request, the route is temporarily extended to Barnet Hospital to transport any hospital workers using the route overnight. The slipboard regarding the extension is noted on the front window.
This pretty frog has smooth, bright skin, generally green, although there are also specimens that are brown or yellowish. A characteristic trait is the black line running from the edges of the eyes, with horizontal pupils, to the back of the eardrum. It also has suckers on the toes of its front and rear legs.
Its cryptic colouring, blending with the vegetation where it lives, is a strategy to foil predators.
Its area of distribution ranges from North Africa to southwest Europe. On the Iberian Peninsula, populations are concentrated in specific points of Andalusia, Catalonia, the Basque Country and Minorca. This species is quite generalist, living in all types of temporary and permanent bodies of water and a large variety of environments.
They primarily feed on insects as adults, while the tadpoles scratch the surfaces of aquatic plants or walls to absorb detritus, algae, etc.
To attract females during the reproductive period, the males emit their croaking songs en masse. The female lays 140 to 680 eggs in small clusters of 3 or 4, which stick to plants under the water. The tadpoles hatch after 8 to 15 days, completing metamorphosis 2 or 3 months later.

A look at the downtown Broken Arrow on Main Street getting ready for the Rumble in Rose District. The fight ring was assembled on the corner of Commercial and Main. Temporary fence to keep out those with no ticket.
I was only going to take a couple of days off Flickr, as I was out both days, with little time at home.
Then, an unprecedented heatwave struck. I've never experienced anything like it. Our thermometer in the back yard recorded 41C (106F) in the shade on Monday. As we were unprepared for it, when it hit, all the stores sold out their AC units immediately. Our place was sooo hot, but stepping outside, was like going into a sauna, and I could only do it for a few minutes at a time. Over 100 people have died in the past few days from the heat, something that is just so sad. The air outside is filled with smog and small particles of ozone. I was constantly spraying myself with water and sitting in front of a fan, that actually just blew warm air around. I couldn't sit in my computer room for more than a few minutes.
Today it looks like it's breaking - I feel cooler air coming in the window this morning.
We ordered an AC unit, but won't get it for a couple of weeks.
Scientists say that this will become the norm as climate change continues. Pretty scary....
