Both the flora and the fauna change their apparel for the fall season. A migrating Common Loon is molting to its winter plumage and late day sun illuminates golden foliage of a leaning Paper Birch along the shoreline giving it a glowing spotlight. Boulder Junction, Wisconsin on October 8, 2019.
"NEW ROADS, LIKE TWIN BRIDGES OF CEMENT, SWEEP OVER GERMAN PLAINS AND ROLLING WOODED HILLS
Because of her position on the map, military necessity long ago led Germany to build stone-paved roads radiating in various directions from Berlin. They were sufficient for horse-drawn artillery, but rough for high-speed motor vehicles. Today smooth cement roads, remindful of America's best, are beginning to be laid toward frontiers. Each strip here, wide enough for four cars, is a one-way drive. Surface crossings are often avoided by the use of overpasses, with four-leaf clover approaches."

my good friend mike (midahed) and i have been having pretty intense conversations. and i think that he's, without knowing, really affecting the way i see my photography. the way i interpret my photos. we don't really talk about photography, but more about life's wonders and life's crap and just life in general. we talk about my friends, about my boyfriend, about his wife, about my parents, and about ourselves. I'm slowly beginning to realize that i might be changing quite a bit because of a friend that i just recently found. so i guess this is just to thank him for being a very good friend to me.
i know this photo doesn't show a very happy change, persay. maybe i'm a werewolf inside. haha. anyways.
[you really should check his photos out, they are good stuff]
"BERLIN, WITH MORE THAN 4,200,000 INHABITANTS, IS THE WORLD'S FOURTH LARGEST CITY
Only New York, London, and Tokyo exceed the German capital in population. Though mentioned in history as early as 1237, Berlin is essentially a city of modern times, having grown enormously in the past century. In the distance stretches Unter den Linden, with its old trees, since destroyed. At the right appears the Cathedral; at the left the Schloss, former palace of the Prussian kings, now a museum."

Yep, the weather was definitely making a change here in North Wales... for the worse! :-( I thought that, since the barometer was a retirement present given to my great grandfather (yes, it's THAT old!), it would be appropriate to age it to the same era.

More from my local green space 5mins from where I live taken on yesterdays exercise walk.
A few weeks ago when I walked round Cressbrook Dale there was a river flowing through the dale. That's now drying up quite quickly and much of the river is back underground.
Still don't know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild
A million dead-end streets and
Every time I thought I'd got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet

The 220a was succeeded in March 1956 by the 220S, which was externally almost identical, but had an upgraded version of the 2.2L inline-six (100 PS (74 kW; 99 hp), later 106 PS (78 kW; 105 hp)), due to the use of twin-carburettors.
Visually, the 220S featured a new one piece front bumper, instead of the 3-piece bumper used on the 220a. Also, the twin chrome and rubber strips running under the doors of the 220a were replaced with solid chrome strips. The most obvious difference is the addition of a chrome strip running along the front fenders and doors of the 220S.
The 220S was available with a 4-speed column shift manual transmission, with an optional Hydrak automatic clutch. This made use of small microswitches on the gear selector that automatically disengaged the clutch when the driver changed gears. Many cars have subsequently been converted to use a standard clutch, due to the high maintenece costs of continuing to use the Hydrak clutch.
Also introduced with the 220S was the W105 219, which from the a-pillar forward was essentially a single-carburettor 220a, but rearward from the a-pillar it used the shorter body of the W120/W121 180/190 models.
In July 1956 a Cabriolet (two doors, four seats) joined the line-up, and in October 1956 a Coupé version followed suit. Some Cabriolets were finished with folding rear seats to accommodate additional luggage.
Until October 1959, 55,279 220S saloons and 3,429 Cabriolets and Coupés were built.
The fuel-injected 220SE versions that officially bore the model code W128 were introduced in October 1958 and carried on until November 1960

Das 220 S Cabriolet wurde ab Juli 1956 angeboten. Das 220 S Coupé kam drei Monate später im Oktober 1956 auf den Markt. Es entsprach bis auf das feste Dach der offenen Version. Für beide Fahrzeuge, die auf der 220 S Limousine (W 180 II) basierten, wurden derselbe Preis von 21.500 DM berechnet.
Insbesondere die Fertigung des Ponton-Cabriolets darf als gelungene Entwicklungsarbeit gelten, war doch mit diesem Typ erstmals bei Daimler-Benz eine selbsttragende Karosserie ohne Dachstreben in Verwendung, die zur Vermeidung von Karosserie-Verwindungen eine extrem steife und damit schwerere Bodengruppe erfordert. Das Cabriolet war daher trotz kürzeren Radstands und den zwei Türen 100 kg schwerer als die Viertürer-Limousinen.
Der Motor mit 74 kW (100 PS) wurde unverändert übernommen. Mit diesem Aggregat waren die Wagen ansprechend motorisiert. Das Innere ist mit Edelholz-Armaturenbrett und Fenstereinfassungen, Lederpolsterung, Heizung und Lüftung mit Standgebläse sowie übersichtlich angeordneten Rundarmaturen ausgestattet.
Im August 1957 wurden von fast allen Typen des Personenwagen-Programms verbesserte Varianten präsentiert. Auch das 220 S Coupé und Cabriolet hatte man einer Modellpflege unterzogen, aus der beide Typen mit dezenten Modifikationen und einer auf 78 kW (106 PS) erhöhten Motorleistung hervorgingen. Äußerlich sichtbar war lediglich die Änderung der vorderen Stoßstange mit der Kennzeichenblende sowie die modifizierte Beleuchtung des hinteren Kennzeichens, die – wie bei den Limousinen – in die Stoßstangenhörner verlegt worden war.
Ab September 1958 wurden Coupé und Cabriolet wie auch die Limousine als 220 SE mit Benzineinspritzung angeboten.

Lovecraft often wrote of the rise and fall of other races, whose remnants appear to us as evil gods threatening to break through into our dimension, lurking at the threshold, or more straightforward weird and cosmic horror tales. His breath of imagination surpassed that of many sf writers.

A scene soon to see some changes, the blue FGW HST with dynamic lines will be history and no doubt the cleared land above the train will under go some urban development. 43158 & 43197 head east through Treleigh on 1A82 – 09:30 Penzance – Paddington, Saturday 30th June 2018.
On a very warm June afternoon, residents of Plainfield, a southwest suburb of Chicago, and surrounding locales joined together for a short march to celebrate Juneteenth and to raise their collective voice against what they perceived as racial injustice. The march began at Plainfield Central High School and tracked near the downtown area before gathering in Settlers Park next to the village hall. Once there, the remaining hour was spent in listening and reflection upon the words of people from the community, a religious leader, and local musicians. According to my best estimate, well over 300 people showed up, many with their families and young children.

Mum’s Day-tripper Bag
The majority of what I am designing at the moment is baby related! I have a 5 month old girl and a 3 year old boy and have an endless list of items that I want to design to make things easier or prettier or both!
This bag is really 3 items in one. The main bag, a change mat that acts as a compact changing bag in its own right and a toy I have named the sleepy fish!
I used the layer cake by cutting the squares diagonally into equal strips and piecing these for the main bag. I then used the off-cuts of this with some yardage to make the outside of the changing mat. The remaining squares (the louder, busier ones) were used to make all the components of the sleepy fish toy.
The main bag has 2 elastic sections at the sides designed to hold bottles or anything you need to hold upright, like lotion. There is a large zipped pocket for all your ‘mum’ bits – phone, purse, lippy etc. I have included the eyelet on a flap just inside the bag. This was primarily to hold my sleepy fish toy but could also be used for keys. As with any item that comes in contact with children it needed to be sturdy! I put metal studs on the bottom to protect the fabric and a plastic bag base to help maintain the shape and stability. I have also inserted tubing into the handles for extra strength and interfacing has been used throughout.
The compact changing bag is padded and wipe clean. It has enough storage for a basic change kit. i.e. two or three nappies, wipes and disposal bags. I designed it to be carried within the main bag for a quick change. Once the mat is unfolded all the other bits you need are right there. No more rummaging in your bag to find them mid-change! It is also great when you child is a little older and you don’t need to carry so much ‘stuff’ around. It can just be hung on the back of the push chair and doesn’t take up too much space. As you may have noticed, my laptop wrap, submitted in the audition round was born from this design as the fold up function is so quick and compact.
Although you can’t see it, the sleepy fish toy has a ball rattle inside and all the scales and fins have a crinkly cellophane sewn in to make lots of noises. Perfect for entertaining your baby while you change her. There is a hanging loop with Velcro so it can be attached easily to the eyelet inside the bag or onto a pushchair etc
Happy day-tripping!
