An older photo to remind me, that archives still include an interesting material. After all those years, I've got thousands of photos, selects from selects from selects, and still, most of them will never see the light of the world. It is nice to pick one from time to time and post it. Let the work be worthy...

Went out to take a windmill photo with a sky that looked like it could drop a little rain. The sky to the south looked worthy of a photo. We haven't had the best skies lately so this one was not disappointing. It didn't rain that morning but we did get a little bit later that evening.

We visited Roseberry Topping for a last try with the Bluebells [which are past their best]. I spotted this rusted steel frame, erected by the National Trust and set my mind on framing a shot.
This past weekend, my hiking friend Kelsie and I headed to the northern Olympic Peninsula for some much needed R & R. This view was three feet from the zipper opening of my tent. Yep......it was a good outing!
Playing with the Sky replacement feature here. I bought the Nikon D100 body to take this for £40 in CEX (Second hand shop Aberdeen) I already owned the 50mm lens. Old and a bit slow but still a worthy contender, if instant focus isn't a priority.

Somewhere over the rainbow, bluebirds fly
Birds fly over the rainbow, why, then oh why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow
Why, oh why can't I?

I don't normally use quotes, but I was struggling to think of a suitable description for this photo and I suddenly remembered this quote, which is one I've always liked (and is also very true!) and it seemed to go with the photo somehow, so I thought I'd put it up :)
I took this outside the very old and beautiful Malvern Priory, Barney is lying outside the side doors, which were just wonderful, I had to try and take a photo of him next to them :) It was a very quick photo shoot, as I doubt dogs are really supposed to be off lead in the churchyard. Barney is well behaved but I understand not everyone appreciates large fluffy canines, especially where people come to sit and have a quiet moment... So I hurriedly took a couple of shots and we continued our walk home. Anyway, I rather liked this one :)

Meet my new adventure rig, a sweet Toyota Tacoma, freshly upgraded and ready to hit the road! Drove my last adventuremobile into the ground this summer, and got this replacement a few months back. A brand new frame courtesy of Toyota, new OME suspension, and this thing has me so stoked for a summer of on and off-road exploration.
Inaugural trip happened last week, where I took it up to Montana for a week of IEEE conferencing and skiing, then back through Salt Lake for a friend's birthday, and home to Colorado again.
I got to test out the truckbed-bed a few nights in the Montana cold, and it was great! Stoked for more to come

After spending much of the day wandering around in the car trying to eek out a parking space on a sunny long weekend in Brighton, I thought I would instead drive further west instead and got to Worthing. It was not as crowded as Brighton and so spent the evening there and drove home.
Worthing's pier was the thirteenth to be built in England at a cost of £6,500 by the Worthing Pier Company. The first pile was driven into the seabed on 4 July 1861. Designed by Sir Robert Rawlinson, the Pier was officially opened on 12 April 1862. Over the years it has been rebuilt and enlarged.
The Pier was a success from the start and inevitably there were soon plans for improvements. Two kiosks were added on the landward end of the Pier in 1884 to house the tollhouse and a souvenir shop. By 1889 a pavilion had been erected at the southern end of the Pier. The landing stage was also at the southern end. It was very important to the success of the Pier as Paddle Steamers regularly moored there. The best known was the Worthing Belle, in recent years the Waverley has been a regular visitor.
The Pavilion Theatre sits at the northern end and the southern end pavilion has recently been totally renovated and returned to its former glory as a cafe & venue having been a night club for several years. An amusement arcade is in the middle of the Pier. It is a regular attraction for people to take a stroll along the deck and for fishing.

SMW captures DM&IR 215 working the E-lead Switch at Proctor on a beautiful late afternoon. Welcome to Arrowhead country CN Southwell!
No doubt about it... I was humming my little victory tune in the car on the way home after shooting this one!!
I had absolutely no idea where I was going, or what I wanted to shoot when I left home with my camera yesterday afternoon. What I did know was that the clouds were looking very good and that the wind had died down completely... so I was hoping to find a nice dam somewhere... with some nice foreground interest... preferably something that I haven't shot a million times already!
While driving around aimlessly but quite intently... I kept thinking about what my friend Mark Vee recently said to me. He was so impressed with some of the subjects and compositions that I've managed to capture with my new D3100 lately... that he wondered if it wasn't perhaps a "lucky" camera? I must admit that I have been feeling rather lucky lately... somehow I've managed to find something (fairly) interesting every single time that I've gone out shooting with this camera. I was really hoping that my luck would hold out and that I would find my nice dam and interesting foreground real soon... the sun was going to set in 20 minutes... and I still hadn't found anything even remotely worthwhile!
Just then I drove past the field where our three "experimental" wind turbines are parked... should I bother to stop I wondered... I've shot these things so many times already... and I didn't remember ever seeing a dam here before. But time was running out... I'd better get my camera on my tripod soon... the light was starting to look really good... if I didn't stop now... I was going definitely to miss out on the best part of the sunset!
So I parked the car... hopped over the fence... and ran into the field to see what I could find. Imagine my surprise when I discovered this little pool of water... exactly where I needed it to be... to reflect the wind turbine perfectly in the water. Then I noticed the cracked mud covered by less than an inch of water... that would make the perfect foreground interest... what a luck! Although the wind had died down... every now and again a slight gust would start turning the blades of the turbine. That meant that I would have to wait till they stopped completely if I wanted to match up their position in both the upper and lower images that make up this Vertorama.
The sunset was nice... but the blades were still turning! I tried to shoot the upper and lower images when the blades were in exactly the same position... but I never managed to time it just right. But then... just as the clouds were at their pinkest... the blades stopped turning... and a gap opened up in the clouds right behind the turbine... framing the blades perfectly... what a luck! The best part of the clouds was also positioned perfectly to the right of the turbine... allowing me to compose my Vertorama with the turbine off-center in the frame... what a luck!!
Don't you just love it when everything falls into place like this? I simply couldn't have asked for more! This must be a "lucky" camera!! :)

As I drove through the town of Lusk, Wyoming, Philip and Mike spotted this gondola sitting on a stub track along the main. Living out it's last days in maintenance of way service, this Darby-built gon rolled out new from their Kansas City plant in 1966, and still sports a nice KATY logo on the side.
If they could make this place safe it would definitely be worthy of UNESCO World Heritage Site status.
The Kirk of St Nicholas is arguably the most important and undervalued building in the royal burgh of Aberdeen. The present structure is mainly of 18th and 19th century date, but incorporates portions of the 12th century church and stands on the site of the 15th century building, which was one of the largest and most prestigious burgh churches in Scotland. The archaeological significance of the Kirk and its precinct has several facets: Surviving remains of upstanding structures in the transepts dating from the 12th century are of major significance to the study of Scottish mediaeval parish and burgh churches. Fragments of architectural and decorative stonework from earlier church buildings are located at various places within the present structure and are worthy of further study and interpretation. Excavations within Collinson’s Aisle (North transept) in 1974 and evaluation work more recently in 2004 and 2005 have amply demonstrated that archaeological deposits dating to the period of 12th and 15th century structures remain below the present building. It is possible that evidence may also exist below ground of an even earlier church building. It is vital that all these features are protected and, should the opportunity arise, be explored further. Very little is known from archaeological evidence about the form and construction of pre-15th century Scottish burgh churches. The Kirk and Kirkyard have been used for burial for at least 900 years. Several fine monuments of the 17th century and later date survive within the Kirk and Kirkyard, while others have been discovered during recent archaeological work inside the Kirk. Many of the external memorials are in a poor state of repair and there is a need for a programme of detailed recording and conservation work. www.kirk-of-st-nicholas.org.uk/archaeological/
Narcissus is a genus of predominantly spring perennial plants in the Amaryllidaceae (amaryllis) family. Various common names including daffodil, daffadowndilly, narcissus, and jonquil are used to describe all or some members of the genus. Narcissus has conspicuous flowers with six petal-like tepals surmounted by a cup- or trumpet-shaped corona. The flowers are generally white or yellow (orange or pink in garden varieties), with either uniform or contrasting coloured tepals and corona. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissus_(plant)
