Celebrated another birthday yesterday. Nothing too exciting - just happy to be alive during these times. I contracted Covid and have just finished quarantining. Luckily my symptoms were not too bad. Praying this next year is a much better one.

Accroché à son piton rocheux, dominant la ville de Mazamet, le village d’Hautpoul garde l'entrée de la Montagne Noire et de ses vastes forêts. Selon la légende, Hautpoul aurait été fondé en 413 par un roi wisigoth et tiendrait son nom de la contraction de alto pullo, le lieu perché.
Occurs in woodland, gardens and hedgerows. Butterflies often perch in sunny spots, spiralling into the air to chase each other.
The aptly named Speckled Wood flies in partially shaded woodland with dappled sunlight. The male usually perches in a small pool of sunlight, from where it rises rapidly to intercept any intruder. Both sexes feed on honeydew in the treetops and are rarely seen feeding on flowers, except early and late in the year when aphid activity is low.
The range of this butterfly contracted during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries but has spread back since the 1920s. It has continued to spread over the past two decades, recolonizing many areas in eastern and northern England and Scotland.

A new year, renewing contract. She signed herself into my power. Every letter, every stroke of her pen was a surrender—her breath, her thoughts, her very essence now bound to my will. She is no longer just an amazing capable woman; she is a vessel, a creation of my command, ready to be shaped, molded, and used. Her soul dances to my rhythm, and in her submission, I find my absolute control. She belongs to me —completely, utterly, and without question.

Roberts Bank Superport is a twin-terminal port facility located on the mainland coastline of the Strait of Georgia in Delta, British Columbia. Opened in 1970 with Westshore Terminals as its only tenant, Roberts Bank was expanded in 1983–84, and in June 1997 opened a second terminal, the GCT Deltaport container facility.
Part of Port Metro Vancouver, Roberts Bank is also known as the Outer Harbour of Canada's busiest port. Westshore is the busiest single coal export terminal in North America and is operated by the Westar Group on a long-term contract. It typically ships over 20 million tonnes of export coal a year and early in 2010 completed a $49-million equipment upgrade, bringing its capacity from 24 million to 29 million tonnes per year.

For a number of years, the Buckingham Branch operated the Shenandoah Valley Railroad (SV) under contract. That short-line extends from Staunton through Augusta County north to Pleasant Valley outside Harrisonburg in Rockingham County. In 2002, the operating contract was lost to another Virginia-based short-line road, the Eastern Shore Railroad (ESHR). Today, the Shenandoah Valley Railroad, operated by the Durbin and Greenbrier Valley Railroad (DGVR), interchanges with the Buckingham Branch at Staunton. (Wikipedia)
In 1968 the C&O placed an order for the first of what would total approximately 226 new extended vision cabooses from International Car Company. This batch was unique in that they were the first to sport the new standardized color scheme of Enchantment Blue rather than the yellow used previously. The cars were numbered using the B&O numbering sequence and ranged from 3100 to 3325.
Various number groups were assigned to specific areas of the C&O. Detail variations included cupola windshield wipers, primarily on units assigned to the Pere Marquette District in Michigan. Car 3260 and higher were built without running boards (or roofwalks) and end ladders; additionally these were removed on a number of other cabooses.

I was originally enrolled into the GETTY IMAGES collection as a contributor on April 9th 2012, and when links with FLICKR were terminated in March 2014, I was retained and fortunate enough to be signed up via a second contract, both of which have proved to be successful with sales of my photographs all over the world now handled exclusively by them.
On November 12th 2015 GETTY IMAGES unveiled plans for a new stills upload platform called ESP (Enterprise Submission Platform), to replace the existing 'Moment portal', and on November 13th I was invited to Beta test the new system prior to it being officially rolled out in December. ESP went live on Tuesday December 15th 2015 and has smoothed out the upload process considerably.
These days I take a far more leisurely approach to my photographic exploits, and having moved from professional Nikon equipment to consumer bodies and lenses, I travel light less constraints and more emphasis on the pure capture of the beauty that I see, more akin to my original persuits and goals some five decades previously when starting out. I would like to say a huge and heartfelt 'THANK YOU' to GETTY IMAGES, and the 22.893+ Million visitors to my FLICKR site.

**** This frame was chosen on August 7th 2018 to appear on FLICKR EXPLORE (Highest Ranking: #80. This is my 103rd photograph to be selected, which for me is both amazing and exciting, as I never view my images as worthy compared to some of the awesome photography out there. EXPLORE is Flickr's way of showcasing the most interesting photos within a given point in time -- usually over a 24 hour period.
Flickr receives about 6,000 uploads every minute -- That's about 8.6 million photos a day! From this huge group of images, the Flickr Interestingness algorithm chooses only 500 images to showcase for each 24-hour period. That's only one image in every 17,000!..... so I am really thrilled to have a frame picked and most grateful to every one of the 17.950 Million people who have visited, favourite and commented on this and all of my other photographs here on my FLICKR site. *****

I've had to go to Sebring FL three times in the past few weeks. Two hours away. It's where I lived when I moved here to The City Beautiful. I still owned a villa there, which I thought had been carefully rented for the past three years. It had not been cared for whatsoever. I was in the process of evicting the tenants for other reasons when Hurricane Irma came smashing through Highlands County the week before they were to vacate.
The City of Sebring sewer and water backed up into my villa. In addition to wind damage to the front porch and roof. Needless to say, aarrgghhh!
So $4,000 later, I at least got the wet stuff remediated by a wonderful Christian company (I used to go to church with them) and signed up with my new Christian real estate agent to sell this at last.
It's a God thing, and to make a long story shorter, this week was my last trip down to my trashed house. I got a very generous contract to purchase "as is" my tiny little villa in the hood. I was saved in this town almost eleven years ago, and my heart has been broken this past month. But I am counting my many, many blessings.
I'm still waiting for FEMA to show up and inspect (no hurricane coverage with my insurance) the damage before closing the sale.
Anyway, this is a shot of the Sebring Diner (one of my favorite places to eat there) with the telltale ravages of Hurricane Irma showing in the signage.
So lots of tears but I'm again on the mend from yet another heartache.
Counting my blessings and thankful for many things.

Perhaps both...
Routes 35 and 47 both began new contracts this year specifying new hybrid vehicles, both routes upgraded with MMCs but they carry the opposite chassis. The 47 uses Volvo B5LHs with the MMC body whereas the 35 uses AD E40Hs with the MMC body.

The other day I was contracted be a part of a music video. It was a long day, but a lot of fun!
I like this photo of me (which isn’t usually the case). So I decided to edit it a bit in Lightroom/Photoshop. Saturated the pink color, sharpened and denoised it a bit. Put a boarder around it just to give it some “artistic” nuance. Then upscaled it since it was an iPhone pic…
…hmmm… not bad. 😊
OK, it's been done before. I get that. But it's also a compositional idea that appears simple and one I wanted to try for myself. With today a write-off through rain, I decided to give it a whack.
Two hours later I finally got the shot I envisaged, with the assistance of the kitchen bench, a black shirt, a torch, a tissue to muffle the torchlight, a ring, an old book by Balzac (the source of the title), a wireless remote, tripod, a Canon EOS 1Ds Mark III and a Canon EF 85mm f1.2L II lens.

So on a whim I watched Judas Contract, the newest movie from DC's animation studios, and as someone who's never read the story it's based on, and isn't actually a Titans fan, I honestly thought it was pretty good. Bizarrely enough it may be one of DC's best animated movies to come out after the Flashpoint movie.
Anyways, here's some figs.
Brother Blood: I didn't originally intend on making him but he had an interesting presence in the movie (at least until he turned into generic supervillain number six-million) so I ran with it. Elrond head, Indiana Jones torso, two capes, Glam Rock Bats legs.
Slade is an Onlinesailin in Ninjago armor.
Terra: Harry Potter head, CMF Amazon warrior torso.
Beast Boy: Put together this outfit after I used all the black and purple Beast Boy parts to make better figs. Clone armor, CMF robot legs.
Nightwing: Now with LBM Bruce Wayne hair.
Starfire is official, and Raven I posted long ago.
I didn't include Blue Beetle cause I killed his fig almost as soon as I got it (and also he had no bearing on the film whatsoever) or Damien cause it'd just be the official fig.
Let me know what you thought of the movie!
Cheers!
me: i worry too,...
her: you shouldn't.
me:
i know,... but I do,... a little, a comfortable amount, like you said.
i worry that one day you'll get tired of my face,...
that when you do,... atleast if i juggled, you'd still be interested...
so i'll learn to juggle,...
her: ...
me: when i'm 70 and you've gotten bored of shooting me,...
and you say that you're off to shoot the latest hot young juggler,...
and i'll be like
"No, wait rabbit, look at this trick i just learned!"
her: can i get that in writing?
me: i'm giving you my word,...
her: no i want that in writing,... so that you can read this again when you're 70.
me: ok i'll flickr it.
her: yes!
me: i hope flickr dies before i'm 70.
