A black and white photograph taken from the Bridgewater Canal towpath at Worlsey. A canal boat at the left-middle of frame is named 'Turning Point', which coincided with three cyclists turning around their cycles. This was Christmas Eve 2021 and in exceedingly grey weather.

Tool steel is being turned on the lathe to make a precision circular cutter. This cutter will be hardened and used only once to help make the gear tooth form cutter.
If I could turn back time, I'd like to meet these people--my paternal great-grandparents Andrew Neil and Fanny Holmes Neil, circa late very early 1900s. I love the posture of these two---there is a closeness and comfortableness in the way that they are posing together.
Andrew was an 1858 immigrant from Sorbie, Wigtownshire, Scotland and Fanny came to the US from Ireland, most likely Tyrone County, in 1863,
My mother recently found this photo in a box of my grandmother's with no identification on it. The hat the farmer is wearing and the woman's bonnet, along with the farm implements and horses seem to indicate the 1890s to early 1900s.
It is very difficult to identify the people for certain because their faces--in particular, his--are obscured; but, I know other family members can be ruled out. The woman in the photograph resembles a photo of Fanny when she was much older, which can be found in my photostream.
I am confident that this isn't a photograph of my other set of grandparents; so, I am basing my identification of this man as Andrew based on my firm belief that the woman is Fanny.
Turning torso, it has 54 (?) floors. In Malmö, Sweden. It looks like it is turning around. Makes you dizzy. 8/2005
Axles for the shay were turned in a collet holder. In this photo, the shop made saw holder has been used to cut two relief grooves using a 1/32" saw blade. The lathe is turned at 230 rpm and the saw is rotated using a portable drill in the opposite direction to cut each groove.
there's something about mid-february,
a change in the light, a feel in the air.
it is still a long time yet until spring,
but winter doesn't have the same hold.

i think this single star is the only winter-crafting i did this year. no hand-drawn turkeys, no christmas ornaments, no handmade valentines, no paper snowflakes, no nothing. this is it.

Ann turns around and shows her back. Her colorful fingernails are on the wall, her head and shoulders are covered by her long black hair and her sweet bum is highlighted by her bright yellow shiny shorts. She's such a tease sometimes and I don't mind at all; I'm loving it!

The autumn colours are really showing themselves in Liadalen with the grasses turning a superb orange colour. The two bodies of water are man made reservoirs supplying both drinking water and power.

I have to smile at how things have changed in England since I was a child. A hint of sunshine and we go all Continental and eat outdoors at every opportunity. When I was younger a few cafés and restaurants had gardens, but they were always at the back of the premises. These days even tiny establishments seem to have seats and tables outside. Of course, we take things to extremes these days and there are hardy souls who will sit outside even when it's freezing cold! I guess the fact that smoking is banned indoors (thank goodness) has a part to play in the change of behaviour too.

The vision of HSB Turning Torso is based on a sculpture called Twisting Torso. In 1999 HSB Malmö’s former Managing Director Johnny Örbäck saw the sculpture in a brochure which presented Santiago Calatrava in connection with his contribution to the architectural competition for the Öresund Bridge.
It was on this occasion that Johnny Örbäck got the idea to build HSB Turning Torso. Shortly thereafter he travelled to Zurich to meet with Santiago Calatrava and ask him to design a residential building based on the idea of a structure of twisting cubes.
HSB Turning Torso is an amazing combination of sculpture and building. It is also one of the few landmarks in the world which becomes part of everyday life with its ten floors of offices, 147 apartments and meeting facilities on the two top floors.
Santiago Calatrava
The architect behind HSB Turning Torso is Santiago Calatrava. The Spaniard is one of the most fascinating architects of our time and is responsible for a number of fascinating projects.
Calatrava is a trained sculptor, architect and engineer and is among other things responsible for projects such as the Olympic Sports Complex in Athens and the World Trade Center Transportation Hub which is being built in connection with Ground Zero. He has also created several bridges, railway stations and air traffic control towers.

Nov 28, 2014: Making tiny parts is a lot easier with a collet closer. Here I'm turning a groove into a bunch of 1/2 in. dia. x 1/2 in. long Delrin whatsits.
This series of 8 photographs were taken at the Vivarais Railway on the Rhône Valley in France during the mid-1990s.
Mallet no.414 moving slowly onto the turntable at Lamastre station.
The Vivarais Railway closed indefinitely on Sunday 13th April 2008. A great loss to railway preservation. It was such an interesting and unusual line, in an excellent location.
From its rescue after the closure of the system in 1968 until 2003 the line had been run by the CFTM, an enthusiast society. It was then handed over to a company in which the Conseil General de l’Ardèche, the regional government, has a majority stake on the basis that it would provide much needed funds to renew the permanent way and to upgrade the railway’s infrastructure.
By 2008, the funding situation had become so desperate that the Conseil General convened an emergency on 10th April at which it decided to suspend services indefinitely, ostensibly on safety grounds. The last train ran the following Sunday 13th April 2008.
There is now a need for major investment. Furthermore, SNCF has given notice to terminate from 2012 the railway’s use of the 2.5kms of mixed-gauge track, the “tronc commun”, at the Tournon end of the line.
Replacement facilities would be needed for which land has been acquired but no construction work has yet started. In 2008 the Conseil General estimated that between 8 million and 10 million euros are required to put the permanent way back into first class condition, to refurbish the steam locos and to build the new station and depot. There is currently no commitment to provide any of this money.
The tourist industry in the region is heavily dependant on the railway which often ran trains as long as 10 coaches during the summer. The local press described the closure as a catastrophe.
Having wyed the train via the Detroit Line, Amtrak's Capitol Limited returns to the station for servicing and later departure as #30. This move was made necessary for about a week while Norfolk Southern's Chicago Line was in near - total meltdown west of Toledo. So far some of the issues seem to have been resolved, and the Capitol is doing better than the multi-hour delays encountered in previous weeks.
This is a photograph from the first running of the Trim AC Bewley's 10 Mile Road Race which was held on Sunday 1st February 2015 at 12:00 in Trim, Co. Meath, Ireland. This race also incorporated the 2015 Meath 10 Mile Road Championships. For the first staging of this event this was an incredible success with almost 800 runners, joggers and walkers talking to the start line. The weather was perfect for running despite the bitter cold temperatures with air temperature of 4C recorded at the start. Some beautiful Spring sunshine helped brighten the day and the roads were clear and dry for racing.

The race started on the Trim Athboy Road (the R154) and headed towards the town before making a left turn onto the Trim Dunderry road. The one mile mark comes just after a Y-junction which the race joins back to before the final 600 meters to the finish. Heading north to Dunderry the route takes a left in the middle of the village and heads west for 2 miles on the Dunderry Athboy road. At the next major junction the race takes another left turning south towards Trim town again. One of the only significant hills/drags of the course happens at around the 6.5 mile marker. Miles 7 - 9 are ran on winding roads with nice hedgerows and shelter from any breeze. During these miles you will begin to see the spire of Trim church in the distance. At the Y-Junction from mile one you have 600 meters to go with a final right turn into the industrial estate and the finish line.
The success of today's race is not an accident. Trim AC, and their army of volunteers and help from other Meath athletic clubs, put in huge work to make this race a success.
Today's race adds significantly to Trim AC's reputation for top quality organisation of race events. The 10 mile road race today follows on from the Braveheart 5KM Trail Race which is held annually in June around the beautiful and historical fields of Porchfields and Trim Castle. Today's race could be the begining of one of the region's largest and most popular 10 mile road races.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!
