Every 4 weeks a Network Rail test train operates from York to Manchester Piccadilly seen in the evening sun at Huddersfield, with 43272 & 43250 still in LNER colours.

A test run comprised mostly of not yet in service CRRC bilevels departs Montreal West on its way downtown. Threatening clouds are nearby and it will pour about twenty minutes later. It is rumored that these cars will enter service within a month or two.

These are rare test molds, apparently directly from Billund instead of one of Lego's suppliers (Bayer, BASF, Borg-Warner, etc.). Could this mean that these colors have actual IDs that we haven't found yet? Or were these colors never that far in the process?

 

The colors are metallic/pearl — these could be prototypes from LEGO Friends' long development, around when 315 and 316 came out. Or perhaps they're even older, from the early 2000s when we had so many pearls at once?

 

These bricks feel modern but don't line up well with known solid colors. The lightest one could conceivably be 22/221 darkened by the metallic additive, and the middle is similar to a dark 124. The darkest here is closest to 104, but much less saturated.

 

I have no extras, most of these bricks are already off to other people.

It is as I had feared. When I shot the first test roll and heard and felt the grinding of the mechanisms inside the camera body, which gave me the distinct impression of wanting to be left alone to die in peace, I thought "Oy vey. This is not a good thing."

 

And when I saw the scans of the processed film and saw that the film transport apparently doesn't work reliably after the 24th shot or so, I shook my head in dismay and thought: "This is definitely not a good thing."

 

But then I took a good look at those shots that had come out well, I sat down heavily, in amazement and I thought: "Cor. This is a good thing."

 

Sharpness, contrast, colour rendering, creamy bokeh, it's all there.

 

So, now what? I think I can work around that film transport problem by just using 24 exposure rolls, if I can confirm that the problem will turn up only if the wound up roll is too thick.

 

By the way, a Contarex Special with a Planar 1:2 50mm lens was what astronaut Ed White used during his EVA on the Gemini IV flight in June 1965.

Buttons on a ground-fault-circuit-interrupter (GFCI) outlet, one kind of a class of devices also known as residual current devices.

 

The test button should be pressed monthly to confirm the unit works properly, but I wouldn't be surprised if regular testing is rarely performed, if ever.

Merci au modèle qui s'est prêté involontairement à ce shoot.

I can't recall how many years ago I first shot this neat old place. At that time the roof was in disrepair.

I had been wondering how the place stood up to old man winter. There were many buildings around SE Idaho in better shape than this one that didn't make it.

It came as no surprise to see the roof collapsed.

Don't worry ole friend you are still grandeur to me. I will still stop by occasionally to see how you are doing.

Testing a Fotodiox Nikon to Micro Four Thirds adapter.

Before sliding the ND Filter, I usually take a snapshot with just the ND grads. To check the focus, exposure, etc. I call it my test shot but worth hanging on the wall.

A Siemens SC-44 Charger locomotive runs through Camp Pendleton on a test run for North County Transit District Coaster service. This was the first day of testing for these locomotives.

A look at the replay, and I decided the hat wasn't right, nor the shoes - just going to another Ableton class in the city!

Test Track at EPCOT Center in Walt Disney World. Please View On Black. Thanks!

 

In the early 1992, the decade old World of Motion was due for an updating. GM suggested re-creating a proving grounds where cars are designed and test for saftey and durability. The idea was endorsed by Marty Sklar, who remembered a trip the Imagineers had made to the Milford proving ground in 1976 when work was starting on the World of Motion. Disney wanted a thrill ride for EPCOT and the final result was Test Track with a stated goal of "re-creating an authentic proving ground complete with an incrdible test-drive..." - Source "Inside Test Track - A Collectors Book from the Disney Magazine"

So, for awhile now I've wanted to make a moc out of the metru green armor shells I have from Ogrum and Chi Cragger(F&I) , since those are the only three Constraction sets to have Metru Green armor shells. So working with the very limited amount of metru green, I came up with this guy. Not much to say here really in terms of background/actual character info.. Just basically a bulky, enthusiastic fighter.

 

Also wanted to test out a connection method with the skrall armor... Think it came out ok.

 

Also gearbox credit goes to Logan... I believe... Pretty sure it was one of his designs.

today consisted of errands on my bike and designing a poster for my roommate's True West play

 

this is a test for the poster

This picture is a result of a very funny photo shoot (mainly) within a flooded nature reserve during a test of the Canon EOS R5 with the Samyang AF 85mm 1.4. The SERVO AF delivered very mixed results if the model was more far away and worked best from close distances.

Testing my camera for waterproofness :P
