The rose-ringed parakeet (Psittacula krameri), also known as the ring-necked parakeet, ringneck parrot (in aviculture) or the Kramer parrot, is a medium-sized parrot in the genus Psittacula, of the family Psittacidae. It has disjunct native ranges in Africa and the Indian Subcontinent, and is now introduced into many other parts of the world where feral populations have established themselves and are bred for the exotic pet trade.
Gursky stitches together many images to form vast and detailed panoramas. This is only a small section as I wanted the spectator and no edges to his photograph.

"Take a leap of faith and begin this wondrous new year by believing. Believe in yourself. And believe that there is a loving Source - a Sower of Dreams - just waiting to be asked to help you make your dreams come true." Sarah Ban Breathnach
This photo was taken on one of my last trips. Well accompanied by a fellow friend and photographer had the pleasure of visiting some spots I had in my "short list". One of those places was the Chapel of Senhor da Pedra in Miramar ... it was worth it, is indeed a magical place at all levels.
This shot for me represents the Trade-Off between the human and the divine...this place is fantastic!
Wishing you all a fantastic 2017!

The World Trade Center Transportation hub is not any train station. It is an architectural wonder, created by architect Santiago Calatrava.
In this photo of the Oculus, you can see its white lines reaching up to the sky and enclosing the World Trade Center in NYC. Obviously, the World Trade Center is much taller, but the angle and 14 mm lens create an optical illusion. The diagonal lines frame the larger building.
I chose a black and white low-key processing allows the light to stand out on Oculus while the rest of the buildings fall into the background. In the foreground, you can barely see silhouettes of people looking at the buildings, including my daughter and wife.
And you can see a second popular image of the Oculus showing the light from inside its shadows on my Facebook page.
In a bold yet calculated move, the French 32 gun frigate sweeps by the British 64. Although outgunned, the frigate is armed with heavy 24 pound long-guns while the older 64 replies with two batteries of 12 and 18 pounders. with 9 pounders on the quarterdeck.

You can take a look at my wish list, but I really need zombie parts and foliage.
We were invited by the son of the local royal family to visit the ruins of his ancestor's palace. But after a day full of nodding and 'ohhh's & ahhh's' i needed a cigarette break. While wandering off in the neighbouring jungle, i crossed paths with an old geezer. Although we were unable to communicate with words, we shared our treasures. I had cigarettes, he had nuts and some sort of citrus fruit. After a while of keeping each other company in silence, we both returned to our separate worlds.
I had visited the Empire State Building in late August, and learned they had a webcam for tourists (which was a real novelty 19 years ago). I was at work on 9/11/01 when I heard the terrible news of the attacks, and tuned into the Empire State Building webcam and pointed it at the Towers. This was the horrible scene - we didn't know the 2nd tower would soon fall too.
Though not a great photo, I've uploaded this shot of the shunt loco at Milton Park purely because I've never seen another photo of it.
Milton Park Trading Estate - now reinvented as a science park and innovation community - occupies the site of a former RAF supply depot west of Didcot. The RAF site was rail connected to the adjacent Great Western Main Line (GWML), and the connection was retained to the trading estate.
BR certainly served Milton Park during the Speedlink era, with local trip workings delivering Cargowaggon type ferry vans to what appears in railway literature as the Lansdown International freight terminal here.
I do not know if freight traffic continued here after the demise of Speedlink in July 1991, but in this mid-1993 photo, the rails serving this particular building are certainly rusty. I do not recall how many rail-connected buildings there were at Milton Park by this time, so traffic could have course been using a different siding with all movements carried out by the main line locomotive. I seem to recall there may have been some freight traffic to Milton Park during the late 1990's as EWS were seemingly offering freebies to everybody.
A few months after I took this photo however, a return visit to the site (probably in an attempt at a better photograph of this loco!), the track alongside this building had been removed and the loco was not here. The link to that photo is below.

In 2025 this building still stands, but with the long loading dock completely enclosed and the building being very much repurposed. There are also no clues that the building was ever rail served.
As for the shunt loco, Adrian Barr's informative and extensively researched comment below identifies it as Hunslet 0-6-0DH No. 7276 of 1972.
I'm sure some of you will be able to fill in any remaining blanks, so as usual any corrections and/or further information would be much appreciated.
