Today is Tuesday, and so far we’ve had no sunshine, with grey skies and drizzle on the cards for the whole week.
I’ve taken lots of photos of the garden, but without sunshine they lack something.
This is just the bottom corner, behind the pond, that we call the shrubbery!
I have the camera poised, ready to dash out if the sun puts in an appearance!
Brightness achieved by using the flash.
The CC 40101 built by Alsthom in 1964, a true pioneer for its time: Quad-voltage working, three-axle monomotor bogies and the new 'Nez Cassé' body style of French locomotives.
In exhibition at Cité du Train - Patrimoine SNCF | Musée | Mulhouse | Alsace.
Lange Zeit waren sie charakteristisch für die französische "Ligne 4": die Loks der Reihe CC 72100. Inzwischen sind die mächtigen Maschinen fast vollständig von ihrer einstigen Paradestrecke verschwunden. Um so mehr freute es mich am 16. August, 72180 in Paris Gare de l'Est anzutreffen. Zwischen den modernen Triebwagen wirkte die stark nach Diesel und Schmierfett riechende Lok wie ein Relikt aus einer vergangenen Zeit.
My plan yesterday to shoot the 911 was the Thre B's, Boonesboro, Boyd, and Butler. I got the first and third but scratched Boyd for Robinson as seen here. So today's OARCB (old ass rivet counter boomer) mundane wedgie, is T117 at Robinson yesterday afternoon. Like at Boonesboro, I had this shot to myself to my surprise. (OK, I guess I do kinda need a shower...)
CC week 17: Black & White in camera
Camera set to B&W. Used a 3-shot Dynamic Range Optimizer bracket and found I preferred the lowest DRO image as it seemed softer and more appropriate for these little flowers.

His story:
CC-3333, nicknamed "Bow," was a clone trooper Lieutenant during the first year of Clone Wars, the galaxy-wide conflict between the Galactic Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems. He later became a Commander(mainly leader of the Clone Marines of the 501st), and finally Senior Commander(leader of the 501st). In the first year of the war, Bow was in second command of Torrent Company, a unit of the famed 501st Legion in the Grand Army of the Republic alongside his superior at the time; Captain Rex. Bow served under Jedi General Anakin Skywalker and Captain Rex, and was a freethinking, tough, and aggressive trooper. He was loyal and committed to his duty and to his fellow clones, Bow proved to be a extremely smart and capable leader, even under extreme circumstances, he fought on even in the face of death, but proved victorious. Bow displayed a strong working relationship and a degree of friendship with fellow Clone Troopers, Appo, Vill, and their Captain; Rex. Bow served in countless battles, and succeeded them 100%. Of the 501st, Bow be came a famed Clone Officer, who was well-known, and admired by his superiors and his Clone Brothers.
Order 66:
By the final year of the Clone Wars, Bow became a Clone Commander, mainly in command of the clone marines of the 501st, and the third leader of the 501st Legion. In that same year, Supreme Chancellor Palpatine declared the Jedi Order enemies of the Republic and issued Order 66, a contingency order for the Republic's Grand Army. Bow, Appo, and Vill led the 501st against the Jedi Temple on the planet Coruscant, serving alongside the Emperor's new apprentice Darth Vader, formerly Anakin Skywalker during Operation Nightfall. Bow and his marines killed a number of Jedi and Temple guards that night, counting of almost all of the Jedi dead; along with the others of the 501st. When Senator Bail Organa came to the Temple to investigate what had happened, Appo, Bow, and several troopers met him on one of the Temple's landing platforms. Appo informed Organa that there had been a rebellion, but when Organa tried to enter the Temple, he, Bow, and the other troopers drew their blaster upon the Senator and ordered him to leave. As Organa turned to go, a Jedi Padawan, Zett Jukassa, rushed onto the pad and began slashing at some of the troopers with his lightsaber. Appo ordered his troops to open fire on Organa, only to be cut down by Jukassa. Appo's fellow Commander; Bow, killed Jukassa, but allowed Organa to escape. Jukassa's attack seriously wounded Appo, but with the help of Bow he survived and recovered, later filing a report on the death of Jukassa and a number of other Jedi killed in the Temple.
Elimination of the Jedi:
On many accounts, Clone Commanders Appo, Vill, and Bow led the 501st Legion, now under the direct command of Darth Vader, to kill the remaining Jedi over the Galaxy. In the process, they succeeded, but Appo and Vill were killed. Bow now became the leader of the 501st Legion. They became Vader's fist. They kept their armor, instead of taking the new Imperial armor, which was an honor. They kept the Galaxy in balance as they fought beside Lord Vader. They also fought beside Lord Vader or his agents.

Hey, guys it's been a while since I upload a custom though. I'm just starting up new projects with my new applebarrell paints. I've got an idea, should I do every clones commander that have been seen in the clone wars and in episode 3?! Please tell me the answer in the comments bellow. This fig is for BX's customs's Order 66 contest. I sure hope you all like it and as always Comments and favorites are appreciated
Thanks guys,
Hugo.
PS: The backpack is a small adding to the fig and this version of bow is actually the armor he wore during "Operation Knightfall"(Order 66) when he was third in command of the 501st legion.:)
CC week 31: Share your own photo hacks
Want a black background for a flower macro and don't have the right conditions to get that background. Don't want to pick the flower and take it elsewhere for that shot? Hold a black plastic plant pot behind it. See comments for details.
