Throw back Thursday

A plastic 35mm viewfinder camera made in the USA by Argus from 1953-1956. It features a 44mm f3.5 Argus Cintar lens with an F-stop 22.

Instead, a few inches of snow outside....

Happy TBT!

Throwback Thursday- my Grandmother is the woman standing on the end of the first row.

This week, let's throw it back to late December 2013, where we find an unidentified eastbound freight cruising under the pedestrian overpass at Rosedale with an assortment of Electro-Motive machinery, consisting of CP GP9u 8249, GP38-2 3117, SD40-2 5730, GP9u 8223, and "bandit" ex-B&M GP40-2 4652. This train was likely the Lambton lifter, as all those geeps were regulars between Agincourt and Lambton during this time. Take note of the crystallized landscape all around...I believe we had a week-long ice storm at Christmas time that really hit the city hard, downed power lines and everything.

Almost to Christmas break. Happy TBT!

#ThrowbackThursday, 9 years ago today, and the RPSI's 461 stands at Maynooth with a rake of cravens, about to return to Dublin on a trial run.

 

Raw file long since gone, so I have played about with the jpg as best as I could. (Affinity & Aurora HDR).

 

Found, edited and uploaded as part of my #lockdown2021 set.

 

**EXIF is wrong, lens used was a Sigma 18-200mm.

Over on the other social media that I use I am offering prints of my images from Amsterdam, London and Venice to raise awareness and funds for Great Ormond Street Hospital to begin a research project into the rare auto immune condition of my little niece Beth. If you are interested the link is in my profile.

Many thanks.

I, was waiting all my life to know you

All about you

And now, I'm staring in your eyes and shake down

I'm all about you

And in our mind it comes so easily

But it's a feeling coming over me

I want to show you but there's no where we can really be free

Everybody's watching

Wouldn't it be good if we could be together?

Take me away

Take me far away from here and I will run

With you, don't be afraid

Navigate, and I will steer, into the sun,

We will run

I try, to remember when I was just a child

In my room

My, imagination used to run wild

But I never knew

That things are never as they seem to be

When I dream to life, it's my reality

It should be easy when 2 people love each other, like we

Everybody's talking

Wouldn't it be good if we could be together?

Take me away

Take me far away from here and I will run

With you, don't be afraid

Navigate, and I will steer, into the sun,

We will run

We

Will run

Woah wo wo, wo

We

Will run

Oh ya ya ya

Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us?

Wouldn't it be good if we could be together!!

(Take me away) Take me away

Take me far away from here and I will run,

With you

Don't be afraid

Navigate, and I will steer into the sun

We will run

I will run

I will run with you wherever you go

Don't be afraid

Let's run away and I will steer into the sun

We will, run!

1934 Brewster Town Car

 

The Brewster was immortalized in the Cole Porter song, "You're the Top" and is the only American to ever win the Gold Medal at the Paris International Exposition, a gathering of Europe's finest coachbuilders.

 

The Ford deal and the end.

 

To save Brewster from the Depression, an employee purchased 135 Ford V8 roadster chassis and designed a body for it, identified by its swoopy fenders and a heart-shaped grille.

 

Stylish and selling for only $3,500, it was a hit at the 1934 New York Auto Show. The bodies were worth more than the chassis. These cars were registered as Brewster and sold at Rolls-Royce showrooms, and were not branded as Fords.

 

That I Would Be Good

Back to mundane life, a short break from the wilderness and adventure.

I wanted to do a throw back Thursday and use this first frost frame from 2011, using an old Olympus camera that I think got 5 Megapixels per frame, oops looked it up and saw it was a whopping 1.3 megapixels per frame compared to now average 20 megapixels per frame. Still a good shot for frost. Olympus D460

My friend and I had a great time dancing with Michael Jackson a few years ago.

#ThrowbackThursday and Feb 17th 2018 was a lovely spring day.

 

The train is the ex-0900 Sligo to Dublin Connolly. 7-car 22000-class with 22219 leading.

 

The barge "Celtic Starr" was undergoing an internal re-fit.

 

Processed in Photomatix (5 different exposures combined).

"Look that sky!"

 

Maybe the first time you saw her you were ten. She was standing in the sun scratching her legs. Or tracing letters in the dirt with a stick. Her hair was being pulled. Or she was pulling someone's hair. And a part of you was drawn to her, and a part of you resisted--wanting to ride off on your bicycle, kick a stone, remain uncomplicated. In the same breath you felt the strength of a man, and a self-pity that made you feel small and hurt. Part of you thought: Please don't look at me. If you don't, I can still turn away. And part of you thought: Look at me.

I made a quick stop at Thingvellir view point. The weather was beautiful and sunny. I have seen Alpes and Mont Blanc in every season but Iceland landscape is really unique. Unique in weather too!!! I had to put off the thickest waterproof layer so I didn't look like... Michelin man. Ssst...I'm not that big...naughty shadow. :)
