my first trial with a pinhole. Just using a rising pinhole cap on my DSL camera ( which rendered it a no lens camera ;-) )
Kind of a fusion between a lot of adventurers vehicles (elephant caravan, scorpion tracker, sphinx secret surprise ect) I always imagined the ST to be more of a small buggy like design... I may experiment with tan coloured bricks as well, but this works for any Adventurers vigs.
Orange Empire Railway Museum
The Orange Empire Railway Museum (OERM), 2201 South "A" Street, Perris, California, is a railroad museum founded in 1956 at the Pinacate Station as the "Orange Empire Trolley Museum." The museum also operates a heritage railroad on the museum grounds.
The collection focuses on Southern California's railroad history. It houses the largest collection of Pacific Electric Railway rolling stock in the world, much of it rescued from scrapyards after the discontinuation of their passenger operations.
Two early Los Angeles narrow gauge streetcars from the Los Angeles Railway run each weekend on the half-mile long, dual gauge "Loop Line". A passenger-carrying diesel or electric freight train with open gondolas fitted with benches and at least two cabooses runs on the 1.5-mile (2.4 km) long, standard gauge mainline that was once a spur line of the Santa Fe Railroad. The main stretches from south of the museum northward to the junction with BNSF Railway, where the historic Santa Fe depot on State Route 74 stands. The BNSF Railway spur is in active use, and the railroad grants permission for OERM trains to use the spur for special events. A Pacific Electric interurban "Red Car" also operates on the mainline on selected weekends, but the line electrification ends a block south of the depot. Streetcars and locomotives are selected on a rotating basis. The museum maintains a steam locomotive in operating condition and its use is scheduled for each third Saturday, September through May, certain special events and major holidays.

Today's afternoon I happened to find a strange airplane track nearby Sakurajima. Then I recalled that today the H-II Transfer Vehicle (HTV) was going to be lanched from Tanegashima Island, which is apart about 100 km from the Kagoshima main land. Thus the track was not by an airplane but actually by a rocket. Nickname of the vehicle is Kounotori, Oriental Stork or White Stork, and the Konotori is a spacecraft used to resupply the International Space Station (ISS). This photo was 4 or 5 minutes after the launching, so the track was transformed by complex air streams in high altitudes.
今日偶然に重富の海岸でコウノトリの打ち上げの軌跡を桜島の脇に目撃しました.種子島からの打ち上げを県本土でこのようにはっきり見えるとは思ってませんでした.コウノトリは国際宇宙ステーションへの補給機です.これは打ち上げ後4,5分のもので,上空の気流で軌跡は変形しています.
