An endemic bird of the Western Ghats, these are small colorful Bulbuls that we struggled to shoot. Unlike their other cousins, we sighted these in small groups on 2-3 at best and often in the bush!
They are the size of a typical bulbul, around 17-19 cms, olive colored with a grey head and a small yellow patch on the head around the beak. They were foraging in the bush, hunting for insects, looking around the nests for spiders, but it was tough to get a clear shot. In the forest, where the leaves are yellow and dropping fast, the bird was hard to sight in this season - its colors offered a natural camouflage for them. I must admit that though we spent 6 days in their area, we barely saw them.
We got the other two endemic cousins of this bird though, the flame throated bulbul and the yellow browed bulbul.
Thank you so much in advance for your views, feedback and faves.
CITY DOME : conçu par l’architecte de la ville Robert Morham en 1895. Bâtiment classique octogonal de plain-pied, à 8 baies avec grand dôme circulaire, situé dans le coin NE de l’enceinte. Toit en dôme en cuivre avec fleuron boule. Le City Dome a été construit pour abriter un télescope de 22 pouces (56 cms) fabriqué par J. Buckingham qui était trop grand pour être utilisé dans l’observatoire de Playfair. Le télescope y est resté jusqu’en 1926, date à laquelle il a été démantelé pour être exposé au Musée royal d’Écosse. Dans les années 1950, il était dans un état de délabrement grave. La fin du 20ème siècle a vu la réparation externe et interne et la rénovation du dôme ; un plafond suspendu cache l’intérieur du dôme et le bâtiment sera (2002) aménagé en amphithéâtre et auditorium.
CITY DOME : Designed by city architect Robert Morham in 1895. Classic octagonal, single-storey, 8-bay building with large circular dome, located in the NE corner of the compound. Copper domed roof with ball finial. The City Dome was built to house a 22 inch (56 cms) telescope made by J. Buckingham which was too large for use in the Playfair Observatory. The telescope remained there until 1926, when it was dismantled for display in the Royal Museum of Scotland. By the 1950s it was in a serious state of disrepair. The late 20th century saw external and internal repair and renovation of the dome; a suspended ceiling hides the interior of the dome and the building will be (2002) converted into an amphitheater and auditorium.
A pretty uncommon and migratory courser found in the western parts of India during winters. They migrate from the Middle East and parts of North Africa like Morocco and are seen in the dry desert grasslands where grass grows a couple of inches. These are small birds around 19-24 cms and hard to sight in their habitat - which is cream / brown colored desert grass. Took us sometime to find them and only when they moved.
Shot these during our trip to Rajasthan - the winter is apparently delayed there and we loved the weather. But that has impacted the migration and several bird species numbers are quite low. Like this courser - the guide informed us that they are apparently seen in 20-30 numbers, but this time we only saw like 2-3 of them at best. As the days get colder, the naturalist thinks we will see more of them.
Many thanks in advance for your views, faves and feedback - very much appreciated.
I always thought the combination of CGSY and CMs in CFCLA corporate livery was a neat pairing, and this would be the last time I ever saw it. CM3304 and CM3316 work empty grain 9365 to Temora.
On the return trip for this train, 39 out of 41 wagons derailed whilst descending the Illawarra Escarpment, and destroyed them along with alot of rail infrastructure. The line was closed for 1 week, with full operations returning just a few days ago.

I've had two rolls of Adox CMS 20 II sitting on the darkroom shelf, staring at me, for two plus years now, waiting for me to act. I have hesitated, since access to the Adotech developer Adox has made specifically for this film is often difficult, and it does need a special, low contrast developer to get "continuous tone" out of it.
But yesterday I decided to do some research and I found a couple recipes for copy films in Anchell & Troop's Darkroom Cookbook and gave two a try: TDLC-103* and a modified PMK dilution. This image is from one of the TDLC-103 negatives.
The PMK negs were usable as well, but created less highlight separation than the TDLC-103, so in the future, I will just use the TDLC-103.
Photographed with my Kodak Signet 35, which has a f3.5 Ektar lens (A Tessar formula), and the aperture used here was likely f11 or f16. Talk about sharp - click on the image to see the detail. Remember - this is a 35mm negative! (from a camera made in 1954: flic.kr/p/2mXJWBf)
* basically, TDLC-103 is a very dilute D-23 with Sodium bicarbonate.
Beautiful botanical garden, replete with plumeria.
