A pair of candy dishes. Both are about four inches in diameter. The one on the left is rainbow poplar. The one on the right is a Dominican wood called Chechen. It smells like bologna when cut, which isn't nearly as cool as it sounds.
486 is prepared to be turned on the turntable in the yard in Durango, it was the replacement loco for our trip, apparently the other loco failed just before departure.

Playing with a selfie using Black Hot night vision mode on the Therm-App imager turned my beard and hair white. I had to open my eyes a lot wider than normal otherwise they just didn't show up.
Eyes are a dead giveaway as to whether an image is a real IR fake thermal picture. The eyes are a fairly uniform temperature, about the sane as the rest of the body, so they don't show up much. Fake thermal images almost always have a clearly visible pupil.
Comments are warmly welcomed.

mum clicked this one with her phone when we were getting the roof of our place in Goa fixed up before the rains ..
turning an OD _inside_ the chuck jaws. Makes me nervous, even though I'm always careful and haven't broken anything... yet.
nrhp # 01000282- Steamtown National Historic Site (NHS) is a railroad museum and heritage railroad located on 62.48 acres (25.3 ha) in downtown Scranton, Pennsylvania, at the site of the former Scranton yards of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad (DL&W). The museum is built around a working replica turntable and a roundhouse that is largely a replica but which includes two authentic sections built in 1902 and 1937. All the buildings on the site are listed with the National Register of Historic Places.
Most of the steam locomotives and other railroad equipment at Steamtown NHS were originally collected by F. Nelson Blount, a millionaire seafood processor from New England. In 1964, Blount established a non-profit organization, the Steamtown Foundation, to operate Steamtown, USA, a steam railroad museum and excursion business in Bellows Falls, Vermont. In 1984, the foundation moved Steamtown to Scranton, conceived of as urban redevelopment and funded in part by the city. But the museum failed to attract the expected 200,000 to 400,000 annual visitors, and within two years was facing bankruptcy.
In 1986, the U.S. House of Representatives, at the urging of Scranton native Representative Joseph M. McDade, approved $8 million to begin turning the museum into a National Historic Site. The idea was derided by those who called the collection second-rate, the site's historical significance questionable, and the public funding no more than pork-barrel politics. But proponents said the site and the collection were ideal representations of American industrial history. By 1995, the National Park Service (NPS) had acquired Steamtown, USA and improved its facilities at a total cost of $66 million.
Steamtown National Historic Site has since sold a few pieces from the Blount collection, and added a few others deemed of greater historical significance to the region. Low visitor attendance and the need of costly asbestos removal from many pieces of the collection have spurred discussion about privatizing Steamtown.

Yeah, she was doing that. Pilot Jim Howard was impressed at how quickly she picked up the basics of flight control.
Belgian Air Force F-16 demo burning and turning under a dark sky. Didn't use the teleconvertor for a number of shots as I thought it degraded image quality too much. Turned out that handling technique was more of a factor then the teleconverter.
