A smallish Angler fish (Lophius piscatorius) taken at the Farne Islands. As can be seen it is angling for its meal by twitching its lure on the front spine of its dorsal fin. If you look in Large its blue eye is fantastic.
"The angler fish grows up to 200 cm in length and is a very distinctive fish, recognizable by having its head and body depressed, a wide mouth, broad head and a fleshy 'lure' at the end of its first dorsal spine, which is used to attract prey. Its colour can be variable but is principally brown or greeny brown with reddish or dark brown mottlings. It always has a white underside. The skin is loose and scaleless and the midline of the body is fringed with leaf like flaps. Lophius piscatorius is a slow moving, bottom dwelling fish most comonly seen half buried and concealed in the sediment.
The angler fish uses its lure to attract prey to within reach. Prey items are usually smaller fish (such as spurdogs, rays, sand eels, sculpins, sea snails, cod, whiting, pouting, haddock, flatfishes) but a range of items have been found in angler fish stomachs including; lobsters, crabs, squids and occasionally seabirds. Lophius piscatorius is otherwise known as monkfish and is an important commercial fish."
"The Angler" is my entry for the "LEGO Moments in Space" contest on LEGO Ideas. The top 25 entries advance to the LEGO judging phase where winners are picked. You can help! If you like the design you can vote for The Angler from the 10th to the 19th of February.
I imagine exploring deep space is similar to exploring the depths of our ocean. There’s no oxygen, it’s dark and there are many wondrous things to behold. One of the curious creatures of the ocean is the anglerfish with their bioluminescent ‘fishing rod’ to capture prey. It inspired me to design a small spaceship with the looks of the anglerfish. Wouldn’t it be nice to have a light while exploring the depths of space?
Thought this was funny the place this Caterpillar has chosen to pupate into a Angle Shades Moth in our garden lol
Many UK moths fly in the daytime - often mistaken for butterflies. This Angle Shades moth popped out as I was tidying up the yard. I have even seen one on a frosty day in the middle of winter

Squarepeg of Leeds have a regular turn over of vehicles. Recent ones still wait their turn in the paintshop including this former Manchester Community Transport enviro 200. It is operating the Horsforth local service 31 on Scotland Lane / Way. The houses here are literally on the threshold at Leeds Bradford Airport, the noise might take some getting used to for them again shortly ?
Boxes (or cases) stacked asymmetrically on top of each other form this modern house. At the same time it´s an angle case study.
