Sir Charles Spencer Chaplin KBE (16 April 1889 – 25 December 1977) was an English comic actor, filmmaker, and composer who rose to fame in the era of silent film. He became a worldwide icon through his screen persona, the Tramp, and is considered one of the film industry's most important figures. His career spanned more than 75 years, from childhood in the Victorian era until a year before his death in 1977, and encompassed both adulation and controversy.

Although Chaplin Lake was quiet - see previous post and triptych showing why - there was some bird activity on nearby Reed Lake. The shorebirds were mostly delayed by our late spring, but ducks, geese, and gulls were present in abundance.
Normally this is my least preferred shooting angle, and I probably would not have bothered if it weren't for the light on those small waves; the lake was choppy that morning. Those parallel bright lines created an appealing graphic setting for the American Wigeon pair hanging out close to shore.
I did some upscaling on this using ON1 Resize.

My sister and I wandered through the alternate reality of Ikea yesterday where Charlie Chaplin was on display. :)
Thanks to everyone for the group invites, awards, kind comments and favorites!
So very much appreciated!
Notes from John Hodge: This is the 6.30am Swansea to Paddn, 8am ex-Cardiff, and as you can see, it is hauled by an 81A Britannia, which I can see is 70020 Mercury. This dates it to pre January 1958 when all the WR Britannias were allocated to Cardiff, and also predates when the train was the up Capitals as it has no roof boards, I would say just after the engine was allocated to OOC as it still looks in good nick. It may well be the engine off the down papers (12.45am Pdn) as the 8am Cdf was a Canton turn, and perhaps the 81A engine off the papers had been stepped up to work the 8am.
Due to the recent unauthorized publication of my images in a magazine. newspaper and two published books without payment I have to now make this statement. I keep attending online Railway Soc events where speakers brazenly show my images without any acknowledgment of the photographer or the fact they have just stolen them off my FLICKR site. Hence I have been forced to add a copyright sign in the corner.
