The British Rail Class 153 Super Sprinter are single-coach diesel-hydraulic railcars which were converted from two-coach Class 155 diesel multiple units in the early 1990s. The class was intended for service on rural branch lines, either where passenger numbers do not justify longer trains or to boost the capacity on services with high passenger volume.
Network Rail purchased three Class 153 units in May 2021 to test automated train-borne inspections of switches and crossings.
153311, 153376, 153385
Network Rail converted two retired Class 153 units into Visual Inspection Units (VIUs). These units can automatically detect wet beds, low ballast, and railhead defects
Network Rail chose to convert older rolling stock like the Class 153s because they are easy to drive and maintain, and they are available. This also helps the transport industry be more sustainable and cost-efficient
A trustworthy friend (Martin Balman) let me use his Fisheye to take this shot while he went to Morrisons!

It doesn't actually say anywhere whether one should use the garden plant or its wild relative!

Got a a lot of riding in yesterday. Rode two parks and some street as well with a bunch of people including Matt Colisch, Shawn Lee, Garret Nilson, Mikey Babbel, Eric Babbel, Nick Ramstad, Aaron Shultz and more. Really good day and got a bunch of shots.
I called out Mikey to boost this hump at a skatepark in Oceanside, California. He produced like always...

Nothing mellow about these yellow sunflowers lining the front of one of our local plant stores. The colors are actual ~ all I did was adjust the white balance in DPP & cropped square, that's it... View On Black
I went out to grab something to eat last night around sunset and stopped here on the way. As I was bent over with my camera pointed toward the flowers & my tush toward the road, I got honked at 3 times & whistled at twice. Maybe I should do this more often ~ LOL!
Have a Happy Sunday!

What appears to be, on the face of it Niall Mackenzie's old Cadbury's Boost Yamaha - or at least a replica.
Now, like everyone else I would be reluctant to admit that I get persuaded to buy consumer products as a result of advertising or sponsorship. But on the way home, an hour or two after I took this, I stopped for some petrol (or gasoline) and needed a snack as I hadn't eaten anything for several hours, since breakfast....and guess what I picked up off the shelf???
On December 10th, Mauricio Macri will mark two years as President of Argentina. A great deal has changed since his surprising electoral victory in 2015. Macri has presided over an improved macroeconomic situation and has set out an ambitious reform agenda aimed at boosting competitiveness and growth. Following a recession in 2016, Argentina is expected to grow at 3 percent this year.
There have, however, been considerable costs associated with the economic policy shift, which made Macri’s Cambiemos coalition’s defeat of a divided Peronist Party in October’s mid-term elections all the more striking.
Can we expect the Macri Administration to achieve its reform agenda in the next two years? What are the likely obstacles and how does the government plan to deal with them? Will the formerly dominant Peronist Party be able to reorganize after suffering two consecutive defeats? What is the likely role of former President (and now Senator) Cristina Kirchner?
To discuss the Macri administration so far, as well as the challenges ahead in the next two years, the Dialogue is pleased to welcome Carlos Pagni, one of Argentina’s best informed and most influential political journalists and commentators.
Finnish Prime Minister Sanna Marin urged Europe to support Ukraine militarily and to boost Europe’s energy independence with renewables while on 13 September 2022 as part of the This is Europe debate series.

My G5 with Metabones Speed Booster and Minolta MC Rokkor 58mm f1.4. Turning the lens into a 41mm f1.0!

Bought this Sony E-mount to Nikon F mount 'lens booster' off Ebay (this one also has an aperture ring to work with newer 'G' type lenses as well). Attached is the Nikon E-series 50/1.8.
Similar to the Metabones 'booster', this one supposedly makes the 50/1.8 behave like it would mounted on a full-frame sensor (close to original FoV & 'effective' DoF), basically turning my NEX-3N into a RX1 (but with a 50/1.8 instead of a 35/2).
Testing to follow.
