One street across from Henriques Street, which is where I was going.

Happy New Year to all Flickr members.
Having failed to complete a Project 365 last year, I'm hoping to get back into using Flickr again in 2015... with no specific projects in mind.
E71 brought me back to Ilford, and is seen complete with AL code! This was actually from its second employment as it was new to SW for the 24. This third chapter of its career sees it nominally allocated for school work at River Road, though appearances on routes such as this, 101 and 147 are common. 27.10.19.

Today, NS brought back the coal trains that interchanged with the Buffalo and Pittsburgh Railroad via the old Pittsburg and Shawnut RR via Freeport, PA. Here they are tied down at Freeport, PA after interchanging with the Buffalo and Pittsburgh RR. To see a train run on a line that hasn't seen a mainline train in 10+ years is astonishing to say the least.

Back to work in Cincinnati. That is all.
Un miliardo di anni fa, quando seguivo le lezioni al DAMS, a Roma, la professoressa di Teoria e Tecniche del Linguaggio Cinematografico ci parlò di un film sperimentale degli anni 70, si chiamava Back & Forth. Come nel finale de La conversazione, la telecamera andava avanti e indietro all'interno della stessa stanza, se non ricordo male. Un rumore di fondo, che seguiva con un ritmo incalzante il movimento, cresceva e cresceva, e se non sbaglio il volume aumentava fino alla fine. Era ipnotico e ossessivo. Ma la cosa che ci colpì tutti fu un'altra: la docente ci raccontò che in non so quale università americana, il docente lo faceva vedere tutto, per intero. Obbligava chi non se la sentiva a uscire PRIMA dall'aula, dopodiché chiudeva gli altri dentro, a chiave, per impedire a chiunque di uscire.
Back & forth come concetto, probabilmente, è fastidioso, noioso e faticoso da seguire.
E, se a un certo punto pensi di non farcela, alzi bandiera bianca.
Ma l'obbligo di stare lì, di subire l'ipnosi come sotto tortura, di farsi trascinare dal back e dal forth una dieci cento mille volte, o ti rende più forte e consapevole... oppure ti uccide.
back cover collage, awesome!

That one was hell to make. >_<
I fell in love with this design on DA and I simply had to make it on his back. The original drawing was black and white but I wanted some colours; so I played around with my watercolour pencil and some water.
The dull weather drags on, making bird pics tricky on my zoom toy. So I gave up and went for some smaller aviators.
I finished my last exam for the school year 3 days ago and it's definitely a good feeling to be free for a couple months. Weirdly enough, my friend and I went walking in downtown Toronto and we ended up back on campus!! There is seriously something wrong with me and it keeps drawing me back to campus!! Ah well, at least I got to take pictures of the campus. I've spent about 6 years on this campus but haven't really done any roaming around or took any pictures of the campus for those 6 years!

Deep in the Tugela Gorge in South Africa, we got a good view back up to the second highest waterfall in the world, which we had hiked to the top of two-days prior.
The best way to get a sense of the scale of the world is to travel by foot. When in the Drakensberg Mountains we hiked along the Tugela river that orginates in the mountains you see in the background of this photo, tumbles over the cliff edge as Tugela Falls and then heads to the sea in Tugela Gorge where I am standing. Following the path of the river this way provided a strong sense of the scale of the landscape both in terms of the size of the river and in the surrounding climate and plant life.
When so many aspects of modern life serve to make our planet seem smaller and smaller, taking time out to travel long distances by foot and rough it out a bit makes it clear that there actually is a lot to experience, enjoy and protect on our planet.

... and photography!
Sorry I've been MIA for the last couple of weeks. I've been lacking inspiration for a while and the gloomy winter weather doesn't help. Torrential rain for weeks and relatively warm temperatures mean that, unlike most of the rest of the Northern Hemisphere, we don't even have any snow for some creative shots! And boy do we need some with those Winter Olympics starting here in just three weeks!!!
A car accident last week kept me busy with insurance paperwork, calls to the body shop, and visits to the doctor and chiropractor for whiplash suffered by myself and my three boys! Luckily we're all doing fine now.
Oh, and I had my first real photo shoot at the weekend for a local Day Spa needing shots to update and improve their website :-))
Anyway, thanks to those who sent emails and messages - I appreciate your concern. I'm back sparodically and will catch up with your streams in the coming days.
A vertorama of the inner part of Morro Bay from Los Osos. I was using a Sony NEX 5n in jpg mode with auto ISO so there was a different ISO on the upper and lower half of the photo. Still learning the camera and the settings are a little more challenging to adjust on the fly compared to my Nikon. I could have used the auto pano mode set to vertical but didn't on this shot. Blending the leaves was also a little time consuming but I'm still satisfied with the overall result.
Arriva Dennis Tridents have returned to the streets of Luton, following their transfer from Ware. New in 2000, they were originally used on the 38; 5427 loads at the Galaxy in the gathering gloom on local route 8 on 15 October.
We've been away on a long journey for the past six months and have just returned a few days ago. My body is still catching up to this time zome, so instead of being a night owl I'm awakening before dawn, and while I wouldn't consciously chose it I can see the allure.
This view is looking west about 30 minutes before sunrise, when the earth's shadow can be see above the horizon and the east-facing upper-floor windows begin to catch the light.
