For 119 pictures in 2019, #58 "in your time capsule", These are some items representing particular times in my life: a box of Ektachrome slides from the late 1960s, a (still valid) passport for all the times I had to travel to Europe on business (over the last few years, before I retired), and a collection of guitar picks for the time I used to build and play guitars.
Before this pandemic driven lock down , it was common sight that old men used to sit and gossip at railway platform at evening.
This is one such frame at a Railway platform near Calcutta ( Kolkata ) in the state of West Bengal in India.
The image was captured in monochrome mode of the phone camera. Slight film grain processing is applied in photoshop.
The Civil War encampment was filled not just with soldiers but all sorts of people representing life as it existed in the 1860s. I came upon this woman sitting quietly beneath a tent. She caught my eye from several hundred feet away. I approached and introduced myself. She possessed a quiet dignity, a sense of gravitas. She spoke softly and was kind to me. She agreed to pose and I captured this beautiful, timeless portrait.
SHOSHONE MORNING
My first time shooting in Shoshone. The first time I was just passing through when Francisca took me to China Ranch Date Farm.
Revisiting old archives, I ve found this serie. Not sure about if any past time is better. What do you think?
I guess somewhere along the way
He must have let us all out to play
Turned his back and all god's children
Crept out the back door
And it's hard to love, there's so much to hate
Hanging on to hope
When there is no hope to speak of
And the wounded skies above say it's much too late
Well maybe we should all be praying for time

One of my favourite covers, so I shall post the Carrie Underwood's rendition. Guess what, I shall liberate myself and stop putting my signatures across my works! I'm done- until I get a spiffy cursive signature looking stamp. =) I spent the whole of last night catching up to Kathy Griffin's My Life On The D-List. I love that comedienne.

A² 986 hauls the Elecrail Tait Set and K153 as #8570 through Spotswood.
This train will eventually arrive into the Melbourne Arrival yards, then depart for Essendon for the Steamrail Suburban shuttles.
A new watermark for me, something different I had created in Adobe PS. I feel the standard 'Joshua Watson 2018' was outdated, and it's time for an update. Hopefully I can convince myself I like the new one.

Der junge Pilz wächst zuerst als 3–5 cm breites Hexenei, von den ähnlichen Hexeneiern der Stinkmorchel unterscheidet sich das des Tintenfischpilzes durch rosa gefärbte Rhizomorphen. Außerdem kann man beim Durchschneiden der Hexeneier bereits das rot gefärbte Receptaculum erkennen. Das Receptaculum besteht aus einem kurzen (etwa 4 cm langen) Stamm, der in der volvaartigen Hülle stecken bleibt, und 4–6 etwa 10 cm langen Armen. Diese sind zunächst an der Spitze verbunden und treten gemeinsam aus der Peridie aus. Nach der Streckung trennen sie sich und breiten sich sternförmig aus. Die oberseits leuchtend, unterseits blassroten Arme tragen auf der Oberseite die olivschwärzliche, netzartig geteilte Gleba. Der Tintenfischpilz strömt einen starken Aasgeruch aus.
Charakteristisch für den Tintenfischpilz sind die intensive rote Farbe sowie die Anzahl und die Form der Arme des Receptaculums. Pseudocolus fusiformis oder Laternea triscapa können ähnlich gefärbt sein. Das Receptaculum besteht normalerweise nur aus bis zu vier Armen, die länger miteinander verbunden bleiben und sich nicht so stark nach außen krümmen. Die Sporen von P. fusiformis sind im Mittel gedrungener. Bei Clathrus columnatus öffnen sich die Arme ebenfalls nicht sternförmig; die Gleba ist auf den oberen Teil des Receptaculums beschränkt. Arten der Gattung Blumenavia erscheinen wie blasse Formen des Tintenfischpilzes. Die Arme laufen ebenfalls nur wenig auseinander.
Der Tintenfischpilz wächst als Saprobiont auf mehr oder weniger sauren Böden, teilweise auch auf morschem Holz oder Rindenmulch. Er kommt in Mitteleuropa in verschiedenen Waldtypen vor, oft entlang von Waldwegen, seltener ist er außerhalb des Waldes zu finden. Die Fruchtkörper erscheinen in Mitteleuropa vom Frühsommer bis zum Spätherbst. Der starke Geruch nach Aas und wahrscheinlich auch die verrottendes Fleisch imitierende Farbe locken Fliegen und Mistkäfer an, die die Sporen verbreiten.
Der Tintenfischpilz ist in Australien, Tasmanien, Neuseeland und den Malayischen Inseln heimisch, eventuell auch in China, Süd- und Ostafrika, sowie auf St. Helena. In Kalifornien[ wurde er eingeschleppt. Nach Europa gelangte er mit Woll- oder Militärtransporten. Als Erstfund in Europa wird 1913 in den Vogesen bei La Petite-Raon angegeben. In Deutschland wurde er zum ersten Mal 1934 bei Karlsruhe gefunden.

TOYS in a square format .
Well as for the subject , not too much scope here for toys - yes there are dozens of dollies and teddies ( mostly made by my wife ) , but they are more collectables rather than play things and they have figured in in number of previous SSC shots . Hang on though , a board game is squirreled away somewhere and that can create a number of different toys !!
Great !! But have you tried filling a Scrabble board with words of a single subject ? With all the letter tiles at your disposal you very quickly find that your choices become very limited - both from getting the layout correct and the fact that certain letters VERY quickly run out !!
So here is my Scrabble board made up of various toys old and new with many choices absent due to lack of the right letters .The shot was taken outside on the garden table ( hence the strong shadows ) , a quickly taken 3 or 4 shots in less than five minutes - Job done , pity though it took best part of FIVE HOURS over two afternoons to fill the board to what you see above !!
With that in mind , for sight & sound a chance for a bit of Prog albeit rather short compared to some tracks of this genre --
the aptly titled Yes track

Any time is a good time to read a book. Visit your local library! Photo made at the Wentworth Library in West St Paul.

These three Little Black Shags appear to have put themselves out on a bit of a limb... The colony is just out of sight to the right; I wonder if they've had a tiff with their neighbours - or perhaps they're just having a bit of Time Out...!
Thank you for the very kind and encouraging comments beneath this photo...! Your support is very greatly appreciated.
