A pair of class 37s, unit 37405 with 37407 tailing, approach Derby some 66 minutes early with the 9.50am Canton Taff Vale Sidings - Derby RTC (1Z33) track-testing train.

 

The early arrival didn't seem to phase the healthy collection of enthusiasts on the station eager to get up close and personal to these 60yo machines. The train stopped here for a few minutes before reversing in to Network Rail's 'Research and Technical Centre', a few hundred yards out of sight on the left.

 

Comments off, thanks.

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

Dezember - die stille Zeit.

Tagesanbruch - die blaue Zeit

Der Augenblick - Bewegungslosigkeit

 

Heute habe ich meinen ND-Rechteckfilter, ein Weihnachtsgeschenk, zum ersten Mal getestet und ich bin zufrieden.

 

Blue silence

December - the quiet time.

Daybreak - the blue time

The moment - motionlessness

 

Today I tested my ND rectangular filter, a Christmas present, for the first time and I am satisfied.

got some new lights this week, trying them out tonight.

  

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.

Focus Shift + Pixel Shift

Sorry, another test image. I took a 20-image photo stack, which included a 16-image pixel shift with the new Nikon firmware v3.00 update. I only took a 20-image stack so the flower would fade off. Any thoughts, +/- are appreciated. Thanks!

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.

My new Barefoot Photo Studio will soon hit the market!

با نُت گام هایت

دلم در شور می زند

هنوز

دور که می شوی

دلم شور...

 

از شور به ماهور می افتم

به گریه ولی نه

در گوشه ای که می سوزم

کوک نمی شدم به گام بعدی ات ای کاش

دور نمی شدی

که بگویم:

شعر!

دارد از نُت بیرون می زند

این دل

Least sandpiper, Calidris minutilla

Sucky, washed out colors courtesy of about a million western wildfires that have made St. Louis and just about the entire continental US appear to have a permanent overcast. I'll have to try this again when blue skies are back, probably after the election.

This Common Grackle is testing my ability to be truly inclusive in the bird kingdom. I worked hard to make our backyard welcoming for the local birds. This spring the Chickadees are back making their nest in the nesting box they used last year. I found the Robin’s nest in my Yew tree and I am hoping the young birds survive this year. The Cardinals are nesting in my neighbours yard but the birds come to our feeder everyday. Last year, we had a Chipping Sparrow’s nest with tiny eggs that hatched. This year, the Grackle has decided to nest in the tall cedar in our backyard. This is not a bird I really want in my yard. They can be noisy and bossy. They look sinister with that glaring eye. Yet, we are learning to accept the couple in our yard. What else can we do? They are letting other birds eat from the feeder. Usually, the Grackles will spill seeds to the ground and then eat from the ground while the other birds take their turn at the feeder. The Grackles haven’t been too noisy this week. I’ve never seen juvenile Grackles, so this could be interesting to see. Sometimes we need to let nature take its course. I don’t find it easy to like these birds but I’ll give them a chance. When the sun shines on their feathers, it reveals their beautiful blues and greens and it softens that dark look they can have. If they can get along in my garden, I guess I can too.

This male American Goldfinch tolerated my watching test the water in the water garden's stream. It seems like it is testing the water's temperature with its toe.
