This is actually a photo of the Basingstoke miniature railway track at Viables. There are leaves on the track and no train is running. This of course is a joke but those words were part of a common complaint on the Basingstoke/London line in the late Autumn months, which certainly, in the past, was totally frustrating for commuters!

The Romanesque Revival Style commercial structure was completed in 1892. The Roman arched windows, horizontal belt courses and the rounded turrets identify it as Romanesque Revival. It honors Judge William Brown, a pioneer of Rockford.

It's not a lodge of Island Borkum ;-)

Circuit de Nogaro, France.

March 14th ... embrace the circle and Pi :)

 

Had some fun with some light, straws and various depth's of field. Could also be some red blood cells under the microscope.

 

Pi ... that ratio that claims to never have an end to the all the decimal points. Driving mathematicians crazy for hundreds of years, yet nature uses that ratio all the time with no care or problems.

 

The problem is simple to solve. We of course have been trying to solve it with using numerical systems based decimal, binary ... etc.

 

They just need to use a number system based on Pi itself. Pi'nary number system. Then it is simple, and calculates out to no pinary 'decimals'.

 

If someone then asks ... well then how many fingers do you have in the Pinary System ... and you tell the 2 Pi of course ... your hands can easily hold two pies :)

 

Hope this gives you some food ... I mean dessert ... for thought today.

Willowbrook Golf Course located in the City of Winter Haven in Polk County Florida U.S.A.

 

Located in Central Florida's Polk County, Willowbrook's well-manicured layout in a natural setting combines mature trees, water hazards, bunkers and doglegs to challenge the experts, yet provides plenty of opportunities for pars and birdies. Willowbrook's natural setting affords players the opportunity to see a variety of wildlife, including alligators, herons, cranes, foxes, ibises and many more of Florida's natural inhabitants.

Foinaven in the distance on the left and Arkle looming larger towards the centre.

I am not sure about this image, the surface of Loch Stack was heavily rippled by the wind and uninviting but I persevered with a 10 stop ND filter resulting in a 30 second exposure. What do you think?

The Charlene A and crew heading out. The cabin light is on, steaming along at 7.5 knots. The fog is heavy, you can smell and taste the salt in the air. It's time to go fishing.

Red-Headed Woodpecker.

 

A 10 inch long bird. Whole head is red, wings and tail bluish-black which a large white patch on each wing, white underparts and white rump. It is conspicuous in flight. Immature resembles adult but has a brown head, 2 dark bars on white ring patch.

 

Their habitat consists of open-county, farms, rural roads, open park-like woodland, and golf-courses.

 

They range from Saskatchewan to Quebec in Canada south to the Gulf Coast and Florida. They are scarce in the northeastern U.S. states. They winter mainly in the southern part of their range.

L'été est une période très prisées pour les courses hippiques à Chantilly.

Summer is a very popular time for horse racing in Chantilly.

I have always thought that vintners are trying to keep the birds out of their vineyards (not that this is really possible) but when I visited the vineyards a few days ago I noticed for the first time that some of them have installed nest boxes in the vines. They are of course empty now but I have to remember to go back there in spring and look if someone will have moved in.

That's right THE ICHI-BAN of SL EVENTS is back and in Championship form as it nears the end of the first week......what am I so excited about? NEO JAPAN man!!! Is your head under a mesh rock?

 

I said mesh..

 

Six months seemed like a year. It's finally midway through my twice a year dose, the ONE, TWO PUNCH of my two favorite events THE ENGINE ROOM and NEO JAPAN, where all my favorite sl creators , these fantastic, superlative artists, with imaginations that hold their own against the imaginations of any others in any genre or realm of artistic endeavor, they all come to the dance and showcase their goods and often debut some of their latest master works, and no smoke blowin', straight up, I don't know how they do it, but they all keep upping their respective games and outdoing themselves, I tell you NO LIE. And being the whatzitz that I have been my whole life, well yep that creativity and talent excites me.

 

After a month of the Engine Room and almost a week of Neo Japan, I am haulin' a few virtual trailer loads of awesome new goodies, new masterpieces from the crème' de la crème, and of course those labors of love, those wonderous expressions provide so much more than just being awestruck, for they inspire and provoke so many others, those of us so inclined...and they become the sparks that start so many separate fires and fuel them, they become tools, building blocks, paints, brushes, a script, etc., etc., , yes the means by which so many others can in turn create artistic expressions and works of their own. It's beautiful.

 

For that gain, that opportunity, it's not only worth it, but in fact a pleasure to pump a little money into the sl economy and even more than that a privilege to in some small way reward and thank these awesome artists for what they provide. To go along with that they have my undying appreciation and my respect. They have earned it in spades.

 

So in the next few weeks, you'll be hearing even more about this stuff from me, and seeing even more than you hear. All of you of whom I have waxed upon have inspired me in a time when I didn't think it was possible. Gracias for that,

 

There is no exaggeration, attempted social climbing, ass kissing, hyperbole or induced inebriation or psychoses in connection with my thoughts and words here, it's my truth and I'm stickin' with it. For anyone that takes exception, scoffs, rolls their eyes, naysayers, doubting Debbies, taunting Tonys, haters...I'll borrow from one of the master works of another artist who it so happens has been one of my very closest and best friends on my life's journey and leave you this....

PEACE \m/ OO \m/

Cape Town, South Africa

 

Cape Town and Table Mountain has been on our travel list for as long as we've had a travel list and so we decided to bite the bullet and go for my 50th. I was just getting back into photography but had been struggling with my Canon 20D and was hanging on for the new 7DII, which took forever to get released and only came out after our trip. After much deliberating and the final word from Mrs R (just buy the bloody thing!) I ended up with the 5DIII instead... lucky me!

 

Now, a place like Cape Town is not the best strategy to test out a brand new camera like the 5D as you can't easily go back and reshoot when you don't know it's full capabilities. However, the ever resourceful Mrs R had secretly pre-booked a half day photography course for us with a local professional photographer named James Gradwell.

 

This is one of the locations he took us to. Bloubergstrand is a suburb of Cape Town along the shores of Table Bay and about 15km due north of the city centre. We were hoping for the classic sunset shot over table mountain but the conditions weren't in our favour, however, these kite surfers more than made up for it. Although, ideal for kites, tripods don't fare too well in these conditions... one of many lessons learnt that day!

 

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

Hermann Park. Houston, Texas.

Early winter

 

Leica M6 and Ultramax

An large space of common salt scoured by wind and rain into jagged spires. Therefore improbably saw-toothed that "only the devil may play golf on such rough links. Listen rigorously and you will hear feels like small pops and pings - the sound is virtually billions of small salt crystals detonating apart as they expand and accept the warmth.

A bit of offroad action from the 2017 Gympie Short Course.

Sometimes I have time to kill, like on a short train journey. To pass the time I sometimes like to see what I can do with an image processed purely from within the camera itself. Thus the end result is what we term a SOOC (Straight Out Of Camera). Of course I added my border afterwards but the image itself has seen no external editing whatsoever. Pretty fun stuff.

 

This is the Yandhai bridge crossing at Nepean, Penrith, NSW.

In the hush of night, a gentle soul took flight,

A girl beloved, now adorned in angel light.

Too soon she left, her absence a silent pain,

Leaving behind memories, like drops of rain.

 

My best friend, my sister, in laughter we'd rejoice,

In tears we'd find solace, with every shared voice.

But fate's cruel hand intervened, stole her away,

Leaving me in shadows, where sadness holds sway.

 

Yet in the quiet moments, when stars softly gleam,

I feel her presence, like a whispered dream.

For though she's gone, her spirit lingers near,

Guiding me through darkness, soothing every fear.

 

So let the tears flow, like rivers to the sea,

For she's become an angel, watching over me.

Though parted by distance, our bond remains true,

Forever in my heart, my dear friend, I'll remember you.

"People don't notice whether it's winter or summer when they're happy." — Anton Chekhov

  

Snow white, fairy tale flowers, YES, they are back in bloom! Inside of course.

 

I do associate their fragrance with Winter AND Spring.

   

The name hyacinth comes from the Greek Hyakinthos, a handsome young man who in Greek mythology was loved by the sun god Apollo.

 

One day they were practicing throwing the discus but the jealous god of the West Wind, who was also in love with Hyakinthos, blew the discus back and it fatally wounded him.

 

From his blood grew a flower which the god Apollo named after him.

  

The bulbs were first brought to Western Europe in the 16th century and were first cultivated in Austria in the 1500's.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, like the tulip, it was to be found only in the collections of very rich flower collectors. B

ecause of the hyacinth's pervasive perfume (used in perfumerie in France), the bulbs were exorbitantly expensive.

 

Their heady perfume, their delicacy and their inimitable spring feeling make them very desirable.

 

Thank you, M, (*_*)
