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.
Please type "L" for a much better view.

No, I belong here.
With you,
In the darkness's midst
It is you I crave.
Thus ends this era of Route 7A photos...

I've had this snow removal contract for a very long time. I do their sidewalks, entrance ways and the Songhees walkways in front of their building along with their parking areas...I took these photos with my cell phone from the seat of my bobcat.

I'd had visions of a lie-in this morning, no such luck...
With the Chelmsford P&R contract lost to Vectare in recent times, the fleet of E200MMCs First Essex possess for them have been at a slight loose end since.
3 vehicles (67190/1/2) have since gained the green 'EssexBus' livery and moved to Basildon, whilst a 4th (67194) has left for the same location in the base black P&R livery.
The remainder of the fleet for now continue to mill about on Chelmsford region duties in the base black livery.
On an exceedingly sunny and warm morning, SN66WKS (67195) climbs its way past Hockerill College on Dunmow Road in Bishops Stortford working the first Route 42A duty of the day to Chelmsford 10/07/22

"The morning air breathes a new and laughing energy into veins and marrow. If every day is a repetition of life, every dawn signs, as it were, a new contract with existence. At dawn everything is fresh, light, simple, as it is for children. At dawn spiritual truth, like the atmosphere, is more transparent, and our organs, like the young leaves, drink in the light more eagerly, breathe in more ether, and less of things worldly."
Henri Frederic Amiel, Journal Intime, 1885

Optare Solo YN03ZWA is used, photographed here on Ombersley Street East, Droitwich Spa before working the 1230 route 354 departure to Redditch on January 21st 2021. The Optare Solo has curtains.
Local rock band Triggered Response contracted me back in December to do their first serious photoshoot. They wanted to take some explosive imagery that showed them off as a band so the idea to have this series of water explosions was born. Minus a flooded room, the shoot went off AMAZINGLY ^_^
Over 10 hours of photoshop was invested into the shot to blend the 8 or so images together! If the interest is there, I can prepare a short Tutorial showing how it's done!
In the mean time, I invite you guys to come check out the Making of Video by Eva Jinn Productions: vimeo.com/19996118

New in dealer stock white, their existing Enviro 200 MMC has gained the more executive grey livery used on their coaches. It now has 7 new sisters, to operate alongside it on the upcoming Solihull TfWM Route contracts A3-8. These were formerly under Rotala Diamond operation, and it is a big step up for passengers, and Silverline who previously has one route (S10) and some contracts.
... In 2015, Diamond won a contract for some services in and around Stratford-upon-Avon, including the evening run on the X19. A part of this contract states that the vehicles used on it must be 10 plate or newer. However, on the evening of February 17th, Diamond sent this rather nice Pulsar out on the route instead.
Diamond's YJ08 EFW (32122) is seen on layover in Redditch Bus Station prior to taking the last X19 to Stratford-upon-Avon. The Pulsar is one of two allocated to Redditch, and both can usually be found on the 146 (Redditch - Birmingham, Smallbrook Queensway). The X19 is operated by Stagecoach Midlands Mon-Sun, with the exception of the last run in each direction (Mon-Sat only), which is instead operated by Diamond Bus.. The route operates hourly (Mon-Sat) and 2 hourly on a Sunday. YJ08EFW was new in June 2008 to John Fishwick & Sons (JFS), as their 8. When acquired, it had been off the road (OTR) for months. Sister EFS (7, 32121) was also acquired by the Rotala PLC. It is a VDL SB200/Wright Pulsar.
The 6E70 BR Railfreight Distribution Contract Services train comprising empty chemicals tanks being returned to Teeside from the West Midlands was recorded passing Milford South. RfD Class 47/3 47349 had charge of the 11:35 Bescot Yard to ICI Haverton Hill Exchange Sidings.

A fairly new arrival for school contract work
So, let me start by making posting the story of Valiant:
Valiant, an Ascendant Lord, built like a castle, with high defense, and average mobility,
It is feared by it’s massive strength and usually, 1 hit from him is all that is needed to win.
Its pilot usually goes around with his son, who he is training to be the next pilot of Valiant. The Son, born blind, can only see when attached to the valiant, which makes this story even darker...
Valiant was seen as a threat, so Joker was contracted to eliminate it...which he did, but left the son alive, he does not kill if it is not on contract.
-- Build comment --
So, I got some new pieces, and I wanted to rebuild Valiant, but I got this idea of making a dynamic plot series, and this gave me the chance.
BTW, I did update the Joker’s design, Let me know if you want new photos of it.
Hope you like it.
... In 2015, Diamond won a contract for some services in and around Stratford-upon-Avon, including the evening run on the X19. A part of this contract states that the vehicles used on it must be 10 plate or newer. However, on the evening of June 9th, Diamond sent this rather nice Ovlov out on the route instead. This keeps happening, where Diamond keep using older vehicles on the contract. The oldest I know of is PO54 NNM (30945).
Diamond's PO58 KPU (30494) is seen passing through Studley on the Alcester Road (A435), opposite Watts Road and Park Avenue, while operating the last X19 of the day down to Stratford. The X19 is operated by Stagecoach Midlands Mon-Sun, with the exception of the last run in each direction (Mon-Sat only), which is instead operated by Diamond Bus. The route operates hourly (Mon-Sat) and 2 hourly on a Sunday. PO58KPU was new in October 2008 to Kent Top Travel (Kent County Council), as their 305. After leaving Kent Top Travel, it went to theSussexBus. They then sold it to the Rotala PLC, who already own PO58 KPY (30408), which sees use at their Tividale depot. KPU entered service at the Redditch depots in April 2018, and is still in rather good condition. The only issue is that it has a water leak. It is a Volvo B7RLE/Optare Esteem, and is one of six of the type ever built.
The other examples of the type are KPV (306), KPX (307), KPY (308), KPZ (309) and KRD (310). All six were new to Kent County Council, Aylesford (Kent Top Travel), where they were used on Canterbury Park & Ride services. When they were sold, PO58KPU, PO58KPV, PO58KPX and PO58KRD were all sold to The Sussex Bus, where they gained their standard red livery. PO58KPY was sold to the Rotala PLC, for their Diamond operation, while PO58KPZ was sold for scrap. KRD was exported, KPV has gone to Essbee of Coatbridge and KPX is also now at Redditch, and I hope that KPY will move to Redditch to operate alongside KPU because it wouldn't make sense to have three odd vehicle examples not operating out of the same depot.
McGill's have won a contract to operate additional Glasgow Subway replacement buses to Ibrox on match days (to the dismay of some Rangers supporters!). Inchinnan based, X23 branded, DAF SB250/Wright Gemini, I6901 (X23 KXJ), operates an "express" service from Ibrox to the city centre. Match day traffic, however, meant it wasn't much of an express service!
