Cardiff rock band playing their 2006 hit single Monster at the Monmouth Festival. The younger elements in the crowd loved them.
I took this shot about an hour ago while dog walking. Used my new phone camera (Moto G) and by the time I got back it was already on my computer and (something) had generated an artistic interpretation complete with border!

And the last catch from the event is this. A South African import based on the Opel Rekord D. Possibly converted to LHD as they were almost the same apart from the engines.

My YouTube review of this lens:
Aquesta joia és la Kodak No.3A Folding Pocket, una càmara produida entre 1903 i 1915, i destinada per Kodak als amateurs avançats. De fet es defineix com a càmara de "butxaca", tot i que ha de ser una gran butxaca d'abric o anorak!
Aquesta càmara en concret és de la variant B-2, produida a Rochester (NY) entre 1904 i 1906. Compta amb un obturador FPK Automatic molt bonic i un disparador de pera modern que l'hi he afegit per acabar de donar-li el toc classic (la majoria de disparadors d'aquest tipus estan desaparescuts, el cauxú no ha sobreviscut un segle).
Aquesta càmara feia servir carrets de 122, que fa dècades que no es produeixen. Però amb uns adaptadors hi he fet servir carrets de 120.
El que més em fascina d'aquesta càmara, que per cert funciona quasi com nova, és que finalment he establert que es tracta del model que portà Frank Hurley mentre acompanyà a Ernst Shackleton en la seva odisseia antàrtica, entre 1914 i 1916. Primer pensava (com diuen moltes webs), que portava la molt més portable Kodak Vest Foldking Pocket (VFP), però una foto de Hurley a Elephant Island el mostra amb la funda de cuiro inmensa de la 3A Folding Pocket!
Hurley portava diverses càmeres de plaques, amb les que feu les principals fotos del inici de la expedició. Però quan el vaixell Endurance s'enfonsà, es va veure obligat a quedar-se amb la molt més "petita" 3A Folding Pocket, i 3 rodets. Les fotos que feu de la èpica supervivencia antartica durant més d'un any son mítiques.

This beauty is a Kodak No.3A Folding Pocket camera, built in Rochester, NY, in 1904-1906. The No.3A camera was produced from 1903 to 1915, but this is the B-2 variant, so it's sure that was produced in 04-06.
A wonderful detail of this camera, and what convinced me to own it, was that I'm now quite sure it was the camera that Frank Hurley used in Shackleton's antartic oddisey, one of the most dangerous and wonderful trips ever done. Most web sites tell that it was a much more portable Kodak Vest Pocket Camera, but there's the picture of Hurley in Elephant Island with the huge case of a Kodak No.3A:

This camera is provided with a FPK Automatic shutter and I bought also a modern reproduction of a rubber bulb (original ones are mostly destroyed by time). This is the origin of the "B" or "bulb" setting in even modern DSLR.
This camera used the 122 film format, long gone, but with an adaptor, modern 120 film could be used with some limitations (much more panoramic pictures and you have to guess how much film you have to roll for each pic).

DUNREE LIGHTHOUSE IS BUILT 46M ABOVE THE HIGH WATER SEA LEVEL AND HAS INCREDIBLE VIEWS OVER LOUGH SWILLY AND OUT TO THE WILD ATLANTIC. IT WAS BUILT IN 1876 AFTER THE DUKE OF ABERCORN REQUESTED BETTER LIGHTING FOR THE LOUGH AND SUGGESTED CONVERTING THE TWO MARTELLO TOWERS LOCATED AT MACAMISH AND DUNREE. THE GOVERNMENT HAD NO INTENTION OF DISPOSING OF THEIR MARTELLO TOWERS AND SO, AFTER A SURVEY, CHOSE THIS POSITION ABOVE DUNREE FORT FOR A NEW LIGHTHOUSE. IT WAS ALSO DECIDED THAT THE BUILDING SHOULD NOT BE MORE THAN ONE STORY HIGH AND SO THE LIGHTHOUSE WAS DESIGNED WITH THE LANTERN ATTACHED AT GROUND LEVEL TO THE FRONT OF THE DWELLING. IN 1927 THE LIGHT WAS CONVERTED TO ACETYLENE.WHICH MEANT THAT JOHN MURPHY, THE KEEPER AT THE TIME, NO LONGER HAD TO KEEP A NIGHT WATCH.
THE LIGHT HAD ANOTHER CONVERSION THIS TIME TO ELECTRIC IN 1969. THE SOURCE OF ILLUMINATION BEING A CLUSTER OF 100 WATT, 220 VOLT LAMPS. IF THE ESB SHOULD FAIL THEN A SMALL ELECTRIC ALTERNATOR AUTOMATICALLY TAKES OVER UNTIL THE MAINS SUPPLY HAS BEEN RESTORED. THE CHARACTER OF THE LIGHT IS FLASHING (2) WR 5 SECONDS. ITS RANGE IS 12 MILES WHITE AND 9 MILES RED. ITS INTENSITY IS 5,000 CANDELAS WHITE AND 1,200 CANDELAS RED. THE HEIGHT OF THE STRUCTURE IS 6 METRES.
IN 2015 A NEW 4 METER HIGH GRP NAVIGATIONAL TOWER AND BEACON LIGHT HAS BEEN FITTED TO MAKE THE SITE FULLY AUTOMATED. THE NEW NAVIGATIONAL TOWER WILL ALSO SERVE AS A DAYLIGHT MARKER.

"This beautiful and quite rare Fiat 132 1800 S automatic was sold new in Rome to Rolando Filipetti, the personal driver of Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti. The car comes with a lot of memorabilia from this relationship; a farewell letter signed by Andreotti, a personal Christmas card and an autographed photo. Historical documents and the original user manual are also present with the car. Before the car was exported to the Netherlands in 2018, the car was extensively serviced in Italy (September 2018). Among other things, the radiator has been renewed, as well as the fluids, hoses and tires. The Fiat was provided with new paint in the past, this was done very neatly and professionally. The car shows all original details and the original interior is completely original and in pristine condition. This Fiat is in a very good to excellent condition, you will find only light traces of previous use in the interior, and some minor imperfections such as a paint damage on the co-driver's door, a small rust spot at the bottom of the right front fender and two missing 'plastic head' - screws into the taillight covers. The mechanism works perfectly, the engine runs smoothly and the automatic gearbox shifts accurately. The odometer currently shows 06,243 kilometers. It is realistic to assume that the car has driven 106,243 kilometers from new given its beautiful overall condition. This is a rare Fiat 132 1800 S Automatic with a 1970s Italian government relationship close to the most famous Prime Minister. It will be hard to find a more beautiful and better preserved example!"
Producer: Outland Industries
Class: Heavy Cybernetic Platform Armament
Action: Short recoil, gas assisted
Caliber: 14.5 x 114 mm APHEI, telescope case
Firing rate: 600 rpm
Effective range: 3000 m horizontal, 2000 m vertical at standard habitation levels
Muzzle velocity: 1012 m/s at standard habitation levels
Nicknamed the "Barking Scorpion" due to its association as the primary paired weapon of the SCRP-10N model Heavy Cybernetic Platform and its distinctive firing report.
Calling this a rifle is a bit dubious due to its ridiculous proportions and firepower. Fully automatic and feeding from a linkless feed system as either a backback or more commonly from the internal ammunition bay of a HCP. A recoiling barrel and internal counter-recoil systems are used to mitigate as much of the recoil as possible.
Paired with a CyberLink Broadspectrum Ballistic Scope allow a sufficiently trained cyborg to lay withering fire on enemy infantry and light vehicles, humans and others alike.
Like all equipment from Outland Industries the Type-145 is packed with redundant components and capabilities. In case the linkless feed belt is damaged it can be easily dropped off and operation may continue from detachable 4 round magazines until repairs can be assumed.

It made me laugh just now, when I noticed the automatic tags by Flick had identified this as a Pheasant, even with its tail missing. Wow, I'm rather impressed! At least it didn't say "pet" or "cat".
Yesterday's weather was beautiful and I finally got out for a walk in Fish Creek Park with birding friends. We started off at the Boat Launch, checking the Bow River for any waterfowl, then walked to the first storm water pond. From there, we walked down the path by the river, where, among other things, we spotted a little male Tree Swallow working at his nest cavity. Also a Black-capped Chickadee doing exactly the same thing. At one point, we heard a rustling in the dead leaves on the ground and then caught sight of a Meadow Vole. We even heard one little squeak : )
Our last stop on our walk was to check on the pair of Great Horned Owls. Dad was sleeping in a tree not far from the nest tree and Mom was on the nest. We couldn't see any young ones yesterday morning.
The Balsam Poplar trees were full of bright red (male) catkins - they always look so beautiful, especially when seen against a blue sky. We saw one flower on our walk - yellow, and I think it was Silverweed, if I remember correctly. When I returned home later, I was welcomed by another yellow flower - my first Dandelion of the season : )
After the bird walk, I had intended going straight home, but on the spur of the moment, I turned on to the small road leading down to Bankside (still in Fish Creek Park). Sometimes, I get the feeling that I am meant to go somewhere, that there is a reason, and usually it ends up with my seeing something beautiful. Well, yesterday, the 'something' was this gorgeous male Ring-necked Pheasant! On the drive to the parking lot, I had already seen another male, but the one in this photo ended up crossing the path, giving a much closer view. As soon as I got out of my car, I recognized a lady in the distance - it was friend, Shirley, who had already spotted this bird. A fisherman mentioned it to us, as well. After watching the very well-hidden bird, we were treated to a clear view when it walked across the path ahead of us. Such a spectacular bird!
"The ring-necked pheasant is a native of Japan and southern China. It was first successfully introduced into southwestern Alberta in 1908. It soon became common throughout central and southeastern Alberta in agricultural areas of the prairie and parkland zones." From Alberta Fish and Wildlife.

Finally dressed up my Cocktail Time for a wedding last Friday, it's an amazingly good looking watch, just look at the second hand😎 taken with my phone.
8x45mm automatic rifle known by the name Wildcat.
Oh look, I did 0.6 thing. Again. And only in under 2 hours. However, I feel like the scope is missing something. I don´t know what, and right now it is too late (2am) and this is 0.6 so no code saving.

And the last catch from the event is this. A South African import based on the Opel Rekord D. Possibly converted to LHD as they were almost the same apart from the engines.
In 1967 Volkswagen added a version with a semi-autoatic transmission to the Beetle range. It was coupled with the 1.5 litre engine at first.
