Apologies to those who commented on my last shot as now deleted as on the big screen looked OK, but not on Flickr.
Another from Glennifer Braes in Paisley on a lovely warm Autumn day. Originally a two exposure shot, but not required to use this option in the end.
I am drawn to trees almost as much as the sea and its always a safer option...and a good one when not much weather.
Comments are highly appreciated.

Jacky Winter
Scientific Name: Microeca fascinans
Description: The Jacky Winter is a small grey-brown flycatcher with a faint pale eye-line and white underbody. The dark tail has prominent white outer feathers which are obvious when it lands, wagging his tail from side to side. The Jacky Winter typically sits upright on a bare branch or perch, wagging its tail and uttering its 'peter-peter' call. There are three sub-species, with slight geographical variation, darker in the south and paler in the far north and inland. This species is also known as the Brown Flycatcher, Postboy, White-tail or Peter-Peter.
Similar species: The Yellow-bellied Flycatcher, Microeca flavigaster, is slightly smaller, with a longer tail, lacking the white edge. Female and immaturePetroica robins are similar, but have a distinctive light bar in the wing.
Distribution: The Jacky Winter is widely distributed in mainland Australia and in south east New Guinea.
Habitat: Jacky Winters prefer open woodland with an open shrub layer and a lot of bare ground. They are often seen in farmland and parks.
Seasonal movements: Resident and in some places a seasonal visitor.
Feeding: Jacky Winters dart out from a perch to snatch at flying insects, returning to the same perch again. They dive and twist in the air, hovering and grabbing at insects.
Breeding: During breeding, the Jacky Winter sings constantly and has high, slow song-flights. The cup-shaped nest is very small and made from grass and strips of bark, bound with spiders web on the fork of a dead branch. The female incubates the eggs and probably broods the young, fed by the male. They may raise several broods in a season. Their nest is always in an exposed position, clear of leaves.
Calls: The call is clear and carries far, a rapid 'chwit-chwit-chwit-peter-peter-peter'.
Minimum Size: 12cm
Maximum Size: 14cm
Average size: 13cm
Average weight: 15g
Breeding season: August to January
Clutch Size: 2
Incubation: 17 days
Nestling Period: 17 days

Johann Strauss II became one of the most popular waltz composers of his time.
Some of Johann Strauss's most famous works include - The Blue Danube, Kaiser-Walzer, Tales from the Vienna Woods, and the Tritsch-Tratsch-Polka. Among his operettas, Die Fledermaus and Der Zigeunerbaron are the best known.
Strauss was diagnosed with pleural pneumonia in 1899, and died in Vienna, at the age of 73. He was buried in the Zentralfriedhof.
Strauss's music is now regularly performed at the annual Neujahrskonzert of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.

A man in a black trench coat enters a dark room. The only light is from a small flame lit in front of a shrine. On the shrine sat a skull. The man walked to the shrine and placed his hands on either side of the skull and closed his eyes. He took a deep breath in and when he let the breath go he began to talk to the skull.
"Sista'. Tell me, where is John Constantine?"
The flame on the shrine waved furiously around. The skull eyes lit up with a blue candle that sat inside it. Suddenly a voice sounded from the skull.
"I dO nOt KnOw."
The man sighs but does not break his connection with the skull. Instead he takes another deep breath and asks another question.
"Have you seen him at all recently?"
"No... WaIt, I SeE sOmEtHiNg. A fAiNt LiGhT. yEs, I sEe It. JoHn CoNsTaNtinE."
Suddenly the man's vision is taken over by the skull. A scene comes to his view. A neon bar light shines in his eyes.
"Where is he?"
"HoLd On, BrOtHeR."
The man's vision shifts and he appears in the bar. Suddenly the man he is looking for appears on a bar stool. He takes the final drink of his beer and asks for another. Moments later he is given another beer to which he begins to drink. His attention is drawn to a television set playing a soccer game. He suddenly lets out a swift cheer as the team he is rooting for scores a goal.
"Yes! That's my boy Benteke!"
The man's vision becomes hazy and a sudden headache causes the man to bring his hands to his head. He opens his eyes and looks at his sister's skull. He leans down and kisses the forehead of the skull.
"T'ank you, sista'. I now know where John Constantine is."
The man turns and walks out of the room. As he gets to the doorway he turns back to the shrine and smiles.
"Goodbye, sista'."
He walks out of the room and suddenly the fire in front of the shrine extinguishes itself...

Credit to SupremeDalekDunn for doing similar shots like this and inspiring me to do one for this shot. I'm not entirely sure the way I pulled this off is the same way he does, but it worked for what I wanted to do.

This concludes Hellbazer Vol 1 - The Rogue Shadow. I know that I said, or think I said, that these volumes would be longer, but this is exactly how I imagined and wrote the story. When rewriting to actually upload I thought of making it last a few more issues but ultimately decided against it.
Also stay tuned as I got a pretty cool Halloween story coming for Hellbazer. Nothing too big as I just started back up the story and I'd like to ease myself into the story.
Cette ancienne maison de style Second Empire inscrite dans un ensemble de constructions plus récentes fut construite vers 1875. Suivant la tendance du "Façadisme" on en a vidé l'intérieur, seules les façades fermant le coin de rue ont été conservées. Toutefois, une restauration soignée contribue a redonner aux vénérables façades leur fraîcheur d'antan. Le bâtiment abrite maintenant un McCafé.
comments off.
composition not as good but i like it. and pleased it's straight from the camera, no editing.

Concours Event - San Marino, CA June 1973. The slide had unfortunately begun to break down before I scanned it. Be careful with your slides! Keep them cool and dry and clean or they'll be junk in no time.
Back to the car: The 246 is one of the sweetest Ferrari's of all time. Very nice driver. Despite being 'only' a 2.4L V6 it gets down the road with impressive speed (it only weighs 2400 lbs) and its handling is superb.

I don't actually call my truck that, but it turns heads everywhere it goes. If a day goes by and someone doesn't comment on the truck or ask me questions about it, it is an unusual day! Out in the middle of nowhere, though, attention's not really an issue. :^)
One of the funniest interactions was when someone pulled up along side of me at a highway traffic light and waved for me to roll down my window... the two passengers saw the exhaust/intake pipe for the heater on the back of the truck and wanted to know if my ALU-CAB Canopy Camper was a smoker. Before the light turned green, I hurriedly explained that the coaxial pipe was for an adapted sailboat heater used to heat the cabin and tent. I assured them that it was not a smoker!
This photo was taken in the Owyhee Mountains beyond the Succor Creek State Natural Area in Oregon. From that spot nestled up against the base of a cliff, I could see for miles in every direction, with only one other vehicle... just a tiny speck way off in the distance. Earlier that day, the couple had waved hello as they passed by me while I was walking around after driving the truck up a long and steep incline..
If you look closely, you can see some of the truck's dashboard instrumentation. Seeing that reminds me about what someone said. While stopping for gas in a really small town, a local policeman pulled up, rolled down his window, and shouted, "Wow! You've got more electronic gear in there than I have in my squad car! I probably should've taken that as an invitation to chat with him for a minute, but after days out in the wilderness alone, I wasn't feeling in a particularly talkative mood yet.
It has been put through the paces on some demanding terrain... this summer I busted off half of the rear bumper.
That other thing that I notice in this image and many others is something called lens compression. Some of the rock formations look fairly close when reality they are miles away.

Our annual May Lincoln weekend and we had some company this time round.
We organised a meal at Ole Ole Tapas with a few friends - Alice, Isobel, Trisha and Cindy. We all walked up Steep Hill to get there but it was well worth the effort - the tapas at Ole Ole is amazing.
Aslo gave a first outing to my modified handbag. Many thanks to Gemma for helping with the wiring and advice for this - it looks amazing! I'm so pleased with it!

Friendship - you're all that matters to me (Shine).
Without my friends, I am nothing. Without them, all of this is for nothing. I treasure my friendships. And Gemma - well, she is my soulmate.
Gemma made this beautiful video of our weekend and put it to one of my favourite songs - Shine by Take That. I am in floods of happy tears every single time I watch this.
Facebook (famille et amis) et les photos à regarder sur mon ordinateur prennent beaucoup de mon temps. Je fais sûrement à arriver à trouver du temps pour venir faire un tour sur vos galeries.

Since 2017, I've been engaging in a number of short, private crossdressing opportunities at home, after acquiring and trying out some new clothes, shoes, and accessories. This is another pic posted from this renewed CD activity, and was taken inside at home.
As usual, I really enjoy color-coordinating attractive/sexy/cute outfits, and this one features:
* a Sepia Collection "Broadway" long layered curly frosted golden blonde wig with bangs, from Wig Factory in SF;
* Kayleen by LA nude-beige laser-cutout caged slingback 4.5"-wedge heel sandals, from amazon;
* a California Sunshine "gold coast" yellow women's one-piece swimsuit with side-cutouts, from Kohl's;
* a Forever 21 yellow semi-sheer chiffon sash-belted kimono swim cover-up;
* an INC yellow floral-printed sheer-polyester neck scarf with 5.5" end tassels, from Macy's;
* a Sonoma "camel" straw small hobo handbag, from Kohl's;
* gold/yellow necklace, watch, and bracelets;
* gold rings & earrings; and
* french-tip press-on nails.

Has anyone else noticed an enormous drop in Stats Views in the past 10 days? I know a few people have commented on this in the Help Forum. After 22 September 2019, mine have dropped down to very roughly one quarter to a third the number. I know Stats are not usually really accurate, but a sudden drop that continues always makes me wonder if there is a Flickr glitch somewhere. I know a lot of people have been saying that their Contacts' new images are not showing up on the Contact page.
Yesterday was spent on backing up photos and starting the major task of slowly deleting photo folders from my computer. I still don't have enough room for my computer to function properly, so I will have to spend a lot more time in the days ahead, deleting more.
On 5 September 2019, friend Pam and I had a great day out in Kananaskis. It had been just over two months since I drove myself out there, but Pam had been only two days before. There were a few different places that she wanted to stop, and she was hoping to see a bear - preferably a Grizzly, but we were out of luck for that. However, we were lucky enough to see two Black Bears, which was such a treat.
Our day started off really well, leaving the city at 7:00 am. Driving along a backroad SW of the city, a small, rather cute, old barn was our first find. It was set back from the road a little and easily missed, so I'm glad I spotted it.
Further on, we came across a White-tailed Deer feeding in a field, and it looked so beautiful in the early morning sun. Normally, I don't get out this early and I know I miss that special light.
Going to have to finish description, etc. later .... I've been saying that ever since, too. Just not getting enough time at the moment .... sigh.
