A job as a labourer on the Wulong Mine spoil tip is not a happy one in western eyes, but these workers are not only bemused at visitors but friendly beyond belief, apparently quite used to the many photographers that now appear from all corners of the globe to visit this most inhospitable of places. Fuxin city in Liaoning Province unfolds below as Fuxin Mining Railway 'SY' class 2-8-2 No.1195 waits for its spoil train to be dealt with in a 21st century manner, more traditional tools still being relied upon to add those final finishing touches to the mountain of waste material created over decades of deep and opencast mining. A traditional 'tuc-tuc' vehicle has found its way to the top of the tip to transport a labourer home, such vehicles being quite rare now in the Fuxin area, being replaced widespread by electric-powered vehicles, but still having the added luxury of coal-fired stoves for keeping passengers warm!. This scene, quite incredible for 2016, can surely not last for much longer in the ever-evolving China of the 21st century.

Anthocharis cardamines, male

 

Thanks to everyone for your visiting, favs & comments :).

The chick fell off the adults back and tumbled into the water. It carried on trying to get the fish down its throat. In the end the adult ate it. The Arches, Carr Mill Dam, St.Helens, Merseyside.

After upgrading firefox for the new version (3.5.1) isn't possible to "open" this box in an editable way. The only way to edit it is with organizer.

Is there anybody that knows how to solve this?

Thank you

 

I found the reason of this problem in the forum: the extra "Better Flickr" is the responsable in the new version of firefox...

Thank you ** Monish ** for the tip.

Tip

Sometimes natural light is more than enough.

So always also shoot some images with the available light it might be that you don't need the strobes ;)

There was some sun when I set off for my usual walk and I saw a few butterflies on the roadside as I headed for the reserve. However by the time I got there it was overcast, so I headed back.

This was one of those seen - all were either female orange tips or other whites.

It was worth a few nettle stings to get this shot of mating Orange Tips. The male on the left, the female on the right.

Only the last few flowers of this gladioli stem could be saved after wild winds last night flattened the late bloomers in my garden. Dame Edna would not be pleased.

This musical phenomenon comes to Theatr Clwyd for the first time thanks to Tip Top Productions.

 

Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.

 

The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.

 

Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years

Una tarde de paseo en pleno otoño, con algunos granizos y chubascos tipo agua-nieve.

11-12-15_MG_4330 It was a treat to find one of these again, several years ago I had my only other one of this species and barely got any usable photos of it at that time.

'Anthocharis cardamines' 'Orange tip' Butterflies ( Female at the front and her Male admirer behind.)

It's always a good idea to check the closet for creepy old men with a camera. They are usually harmless but can be a bit of a nuisance when you are trying to get to sleep.

Sun. the 8th and leisurely walkabout thru the city.

Late May to July. Widespread and frequent throughout Britain, although more local in Scotland. An unmistakable moth which closely resembles a twig from a Silver Birch when at rest.

 

When at rest, the wings are held almost vertically against the body with two buff areas at the front of the thorax and at the tips of the forewings which look very like the pale wood of the birch. The rest of the wings are the same mottled grey colour of the birch bark.

 

Occasionally the adults can be found resting in the day on a twig or the ground. They fly at night and comes to light, usually after midnight.
