I.m told that this compound is known as "London Bus Exports".It stands behind Lydney railway station,Gloucestershire.A lot of the vehicles appear to be abandoned and badly run down.This is a view of one end of the yard,from the right hand side we have ASC 671B (Leyland Titan PD3/Alexander. Ex Edinburgh Corporation),then the white vehicle 882 VFM (ex Crosville DFG72,Bristol FSF6G/ECW).Next is 128 DTD (ex Lancaster 128. Leyland Titan/East Lancs).The pink vehicle is LMS 170W (Leyland Fleetline/Alexander AD).The blue and white single decker (with "towing vehicle" in the destination box) I can't make out the registration (it appears to begin with H and ends with D,although I can't be sure).Next in line is BOF 858C,an AEC Reliance/Harrington Crusader.The vehicle with "Nokia" on the side I have no idea about,and couldn't find a registration. Taken 8.7.16.

Seen somewhere just off a back street in Santa Fe back in 2012. A series of five exposures recorded with a Nikon D300 and processed primarily with Photomatix 6.1 among other products.
This is an all-female compound of hawkers and kayayo (market porters). They're mostly new arrivals from rural areas.
Check this; there are 10 rooms in this compound, five women per room, belongings hanging in bags around the walls. Each paying (back in 2000) ยข5000 per night to live there (total per month: ยข7.5m): they generate all this money from selling or carrying.
The things they sell varies from day today โ chewing sticks, oranges, avocado pears, rice and stew โ all manner of things. This means that whatever crops come into Accra from any of the ten regions, these people instantly distribute them to the four corners of Accra at the lowest possible price.
By my calculations as a group, these women generate more cash per square metre that we do in our, one family per compound, high rent areas of Accra. Amazing Ghanaians...
Taking pictures of this leaf brought me back to the time when as a child I would collect different kinds of leaves to press between the pages of a book. Do kids still do that?

I did not invent this. This is the original work of Sean and Steph Mayo. You can see the original creation here: www.flickr.com/photos/legocy/5803377246/in/photolist-qMUe...
I just really liked this idea, and I think it is a great way to make a minifigure-scale compound bow that actually fires. Congratulations to them for their excellent work!
I did modify their design slightly by using the official white rubber band instead of the iffy black ones.
The creators of this have said that you can copy their idea, so I guess you can use this however you want, just be sure to give them proper credit for it.

Right outside our compound's wall across the street there is this instant night market that caters for the massive numbers of migrant workers from outside Beijing. They live in a makeshift housing right inside the compound where they work..see below more pictures.
After 6pm every night summer or winter they are there..:-)
This photo, believe it or not is a group of men that are looking into a laptop..dont know maybe flickr time for them too..:-) selling something, watching movies maybe..
Some more of this pictures below.
The power of solar lights is compounded by a 4 second exposure. Your eyes can never capture what the camera can because the camera remembers the entire exposure whereas your eyes catch fleeting moments. It is hard to fathom. It hurts the brain to think about capturing light over time. But it is evidenced by the power of the camera at night. These are simple solar lights in our back yard - only the camera moved.
50mm lens on a full frame body, reversing ring, speed light using the built in wide angle diffuser on a ttl cord set to 1/16 power just to camera left, lens manually set to f16. Camera set to slow burst mode and so I focused by slowly moving back and forth in burst mode with the flash going off each time.
As always, thoughtful feedback, constructive criticisms, and suggestions are always appreciated. As always, I have used tools at my disposal to interpret the original raw file. Use of this photo without permission is not permitted.
A compound eye may consist of thousands of individual photoreceptor units or ommatidia (ommatidium, singular). The image perceived is a combination of inputs from the numerous ommatidia (individual "eye units"), which are located on a convex surface, thus pointing in slightly different directions. Compared with simple eyes, compound eyes possess a very large view angle, and can detect fast movement and, in some cases, the polarisation of light.
Owning a macro lens is one thing, practicing to hold your breath like a sniper while taking macro shots is another. Not to talk about reduced blood flow in your legs when you squat for hours, and are bent in awkward positions catching balance in a weird, grotesque manner. Macro photography has turned out to be an altogether different challenge for me.

For one reason and another, it was necessary to perform a compound shunt today, so with things moved out and others that are rarely exposed now on view, a few pictures were taken.
A general view here with the main access area unplugged ... happy 'spotting'!
