CN 500 is the first train to go onto Track 29 the day after freezing rain and then a bit of snow fell in Montreal. It will pick up seven cars before heading back to Pointe St-Charles Yard.
A bit of plodging was required to capture this composition, taken last November on the edge of buttermere. A bit of plodging was required to capture this composition, taken last November on the edge of buttermere.
There were a couple of groups of people on Waterloo bridge the night before last trying to get this shot with mobile phones who asked me to send a photograph of the view - so here it is
(bit dark for iPhones)
A bit like London buses; you wait ages for one, then two come along together!
Here we see a Spitfire Mk 1a leading a Mk Vc onto the Duxford grass. The Mk 1 type had been in service since 1937 and the Mk V which was essentially a Mk 1 with a more powerful engine, introduced late in 1940.
In this picture, we can see the difference between the 'a' wing on the leading Spitfire, which could carry 8 machine guns and the 'c' wing on the Mk V which could carry either 4 cannon, or 2 cannon and 4 machine guns. This one is configured for the latter.
Note also how the markings changed during the course of the war; the Mk 1 has the Dark Earth with Dark Green topsides camouflage pattern, whilst the Mk V shows the later scheme introduced after 1941 which replaced Dark Earth with Ocean Grey, which was found to be more effective. The Mk V also carries a couple of 'friend or foe' visual identification aids; a pale band around the fuselage immediately in front of the tail plane, and yellow wing leading edges, so the plane could be identified when seen head on.
Went for a wander in Abbeyford Woods with my friend Fran (who managed to get us lost ... which was rather amusing) ... the light wasn't great and avoiding copious amounts of dog poop meant I didn't get a great deal of interesting images ... but I love this one :D
Think I used the Takumar 55mm ... but to be honest I forget :D
Another bit of flash photography due to our recent inclement weather, I caught this Great Tit in such a position that it looks as if its hiding behind its wing...now you see me, now you don't! ;)

Something a bit different today as we take a look at the dome of Sizewell B nuclear power station. The imposing landmark occupies an odd space on the prettified Suffolk coastline, and I captured this whilst walking between the idyllic holiday village of Thorpeness and the thriving Minsmere nature reserve. Captured with my 400mm wildlife lens, stitched from around 8 shots...

Images captured in the breathtakingly beautiful Urabandai area in Northern Japan.
A mild winter so far gave us the chance to witness these early December sceneries one month late.
This image was captured with the new Nikon 19mm tilt lens on the D810.
Bit of a sombre tone today, not well and really not enjoying being stuck at home for the next 7 days but at least I have company unlike this little guy.
This is the view of the top floor of the structure next to Wind Tree in the Winyard Quarter on Auckland's waterfront.
It is a strange structure but certainly has some nice lines. I watched the Matariki lights on the bridge from up here. I totally expected there to be lots of people, I was mistaken.
Trying something different. A bit insta of old.
3-shot HDR, shot with a Nikon D7000 and a Nikkor AFS DX 18-200mm F/3.5-5.6G lens, and combined in Photomatix before being processed in GIMP and Photoscape.
For those of you still working it out, it's an inverted reflection from the canal in Cromford, Derbyshire, on the edge of the Peak District.
Finally got close to a pair I've been watching on the River Cannich and typically it was early evening on a very dull day
Just a bit of a grab shot really as I was out looking for Hares mainly, or hopefully. But the Hares were nowhere to be seen today, then I heard this Buzzard calling loudly right above my head. So as I say, a bit of a grab shot as it passed over my head.
This younger more subordinate ram to a bigger, probably older male, shows quite a bit of wear on his horns.
Its a bit of trek for me from Stoke to Ladybower and Ive been meaning to drop in here when there was no wind. I made two visits last year in a hope to get still water and this was about as good as it got.
