That time again. It comes around so quickly.

Struts training! Online! in UK, USA, Canada!
This black lab is enthusiastically leaping after its retriever training toy. Its trainer signaled to retrieve and is about to throw the toy, which you can't see. This went on, over and over, for over thirty-minutes.
The lab could barely wait between throws and easily swam several hundred yards over the course of its training session. I'll bet that it slept like a log when it got home.

i had the honor of being chosen to photograph firefighting students in action by my photography professor; very educational the rigorous training they go through
These guys are under basic Army training, I'm their Platoon Sergeant putting them through their paces. This is the Final attack, and what you see is not fog but a smoke grenade used to mask the movement of the troops. all i had on me was my iPhone. i wish i had my camera.
The last ALX300 at Bluebird, 22312 now operates from Aberdeen as a trainer. Seen here at Tullos depot on such work.
This reinforced concrete hemisphere is known as the Dome Trainer. Built in 1943, it was one of about 40 built around the country, of which, it is thought, only 6 survive.
It was designed and built as a Ground-to-Air gunnery trainer. Projection equipment inside the Dome displayed film of dive bombers and other aircraft making attacks from various positions within a 180 degree arc. The image was moved around the Dome using a complicated system of cams and mirrors. Films were projected in colour, with full sound, creating a realistic experience for the trainees sitting in the middle at a replicated anti-aircraft gun. On firing at the attacking aircraft the instructor could gauge whether the gunner was on target by viewing the yellow light flashes projected onto the wall of the dome as he pulled the trigger; the gunner himself could not see this because he was observing through a yellow filter.
For its time, it was a very sophisticated training simulator. Trainee gunners, once competent in this would then go to Weybourne or Stiffkey for live firing at target drones towed behind aircraft.
It is believed the Dome was also used as an Air-to-Air gunnery trainer. The films would have been slightly different and the trainee would have been sitting in a mock up of a turret such as that seen on a Wellington bomber. It is possible it was also used for navigational training purposes by projecting star groups onto the walls/ceiling.
In 1961 the Ministry of Defence sold off the Airfield and its sundry buildings, a large part of which, including the Dome was acquired by Bernard Matthews pic. The Dome is now a Scheduled Ancient Monument, probably Norfolk's youngest such monument! It has since been donated to the North Norfolk Historic Buildings Trust (NNHBT). It is the Trust's intention, together with the Friends of Langham Dome (FoLD) to repair and restore this building incorporating its wartime use as a trainer for Anti-Aircraft Gunners. It is hoped that if enough funds can be raised and the Dome renovated, that it will be managed by the Friends and made available to the public and schools, telling not only the story of the Dome but also the important contribution made by Langham, and other East Anglian airfields, to the defence of the country in World War 2.

„We had another extra training today. Everybody fears being reconditioned, so our Sergeant decided to take us out to yet another sniping exercise to make sure we meet the standards. It is apparent that some of the men need the training. I, for my part believe, that I am currently in top shape ! Hopefully we get off this waterball soon, and find a chance to proove that we are the very best army in the galaxy.“

Finally, I get around to post something again ! I hope you enjoy this little MoC. It was quite difficult to build the platform and I assume it is one of the most unstable builds ever. But I think it was worth the trouble !
Also, a late Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and your families !
EDIT: Check out the awesome video with voice over made by Groove Bricks !
Transport for Wales plans to introduce locomotive-hauled services between Swansea/Cardiff and Manchester Piccadilly from the timetable change in December 2022.

The stock is I believe, some former Grand Central Mark IVs, please correct me if I am wrong!
My latest roll with the trusty AE-1 was the Lomochrome Metropolis film from Lomography. I had no idea what to expect from the muted colors in example shots, but I instantly fell in love with the results. It's different from the otherworldly Lomochrome Purple XR, but quite beautiful and probably retro in the best way I could imagine. Definitely going back to this one.
Taken with Canon AE-1 analog camera. Lomography Lomochrome Metropolis XR 100-400 film.

Cold, dark, damp and unpleasant today, and these guys were out on the water. Rather them than me!
If you'd like to see the others from my 365, they're here: flic.kr/s/aHskPxovML
Thanks for looking!
Several officers are overseeing a training, and a large group of soldiers is spectating from the rear. It seems like they are going through some kind of obstacle course.
In reality however, the terrain would be in much worse condition, and enemy MGs would be shredding the charging troops...
Shoot for personal trainer, Angelika Zaucha's new website! first time in a studio environment for a long time, so this was definitely challenging
Collection of shoes I used and still use. Runners say that you should change your shoes every 700K. Otherwise, the sole get thinner, and you hurt your knees. Good commercial argument for shoe makers. Those models cost more than 140$ each!
I am training for the Vancouver Marathon, may 1st.
I am still playing with Mark's D200. Nice toy. And nice feeling of speed, after years spent waiting for films to be developed and scanned.
This is a photo of a photo. I forgot I took it on my iPhone a few years back. A visitor to my Flickr's feed took me on a Memory Lane tour, and I went for a search for a different picture to post, and lo and behold - I came across my Dear Old Pa. It almost glorify war - young men and women are always seeking Thrills, not realizing they fall prey into the hands of the Chess Masters who shake and replace the pieces on the Board, aka the Globe. We, the People, are just Pawns, or Armed Peasants, in this game called The Art of War, or as some might refer to it - The Art of Living. It is slightly complex, I'll be the first to admit that. Wait - is that an Uzi? lol. It is just a stick, I think.
