I love this building

A Tri-colored Heron gives me every opportunity to get a decent shot as he hunts on Horsepen Bayou.

 

This particular heron gave me every opportunity to take photos as he ran here and there trying to catch some fish. He was very difficult to track as he moved so quickly at times. Hope you'll don't get bored with all of the shots.

The first time I got up close and personal with an F117 Stealth Fighter at one of the Mildenhall Air Fetes ( year? ) I remember the armed sentries around it that were looking menacing....

 

leach turquoise under chun tan:

finally! a leach turquoise that turned out right...

beautiful watery finish, extremely runny

(had to grind off a large chunk of foot)

with a fairly even grading of color

from the top red to the bottom aqua...

this didn't go exactly as i had planned. i didnt want to be able to see the trampoline in the picture at all, but oh well.

No tradename is known for this egyptian/antique face. Nicolette Gray attributes it to the Marr TF in c1853.¹ Oddly enough, she cites no catalogs issued between 1843 and 1860; perhaps an interim specimen was available to her research.

 

The temporary tradename is drawn from apt text selected for a specimen shown by the Johnson TF ≤1867.²

 

This face is not the earliest-known example of a three-dimensional "beveled" type design. On the contrary, Kelly writes that a sans-serif one tradenamed Octagon# (Solotype Wood Type Nugget#²) was shown in 1838 by George Nesbitt.

 

Nesbitt, a New York printer, was the sales agent for wood types produced by Edwin Allen (Windham, CT), apparently the only supplier he represented. Kelly adds that "the design is believed to have originated in France."⁴

²The date 1867 is deduced from the stereotyped(?) specimen published by MSJ in July 1869, which is imprinted L. Johnson & Company while other pages are marked MacKellar, Smiths & Jordan. According to Annenberg [164], “Lawrence Johnson died on April 26, 1860, but the firm continued to operate and distribute type catalogs with his name until 1867.”

Underground mine chamber

390xxx, Leighton Buzzard, 12.08.2012.

 

Now I'm not the biggest fan of Pendolinos, but I am beginning to appreciate that they can produce a nice photo, if you go about it the right way. Here, a London-bound Virgin Trains Pendolino leans into the curve, as it exits Linslade Tunnel and approaches Leighton Buzzard station. Line speed here was 80mph for many years, but is now 125mph.

The train is missing the front cover that hides the Dellner coupling.

Queen Street Station in Glasgow. A fair bit of deliberate distortion from the ultra-wide.
