An early spot of the year contender for me! This absolute rarity has been sat rotting away in inner east London for about 20 years now, and is full to the brim of junk. Its current owner bought it on New Year's day 2005, and judging by the lack of MOT history it didn't see much use with them!
It should come as no surprise that just 1 Toledo GLX is still on the road, and just 2 from 1992 are SORN.

This is my current reading! As a matter of fact, I've almost finished it. It's a delightful little book on the basic and necessary elements for landscape photography. Author Michael Frye, an excellent landscape photographer himself, makes, all the time, interesting and instructive comparisons to the methods and ideas of great masters like Ansel Adams, Eliot Porter and Edward Weston, including the well-known Zone System. A real bargain for what it actually delivers.
Original creation I did -- made this for the lack of anything else I seem to be able to do right now, I've seemed to have lost my direction...hoping the current can help to get to a better place.

Playa Laida, Ibarrangelu, Vizcaya, País Vasco, España.
La playa de Laida pertenece al municipio vizcaíno de Ibarrangelu y está ubicada en la Reserva de la Biosfera de Urdaibai. Con casi un kilómetro de arena fina y dorada, es la playa más grande de la ría de Mundaka, y ofrece la posibilidad de realizar multitud de actividades deportivas: windsurf, piragüismo, vela...
Pero, sin duda, la práctica del surf merece especial mención. Alberga olas de calidad, largas y blandas, ideales para el longboard. También destacan sus corrientes. En esta zona operan las escuelas de surf de Mundaka.
Otra de las características que distingue a esta playa vizcaína es la poca profundidad de sus aguas, ideal para el baño infantil. Además, en la mitad del arenal, se forma una hermosa duna, desde donde divisaremos una excelente vista de la desembocadura de la ría, con la isla de Izaro al fondo.
Laida beach belongs to the Biscayan municipality of Ibarrangelu and is located in the Urdaibai Biosphere Reserve. With almost a kilometer of fine golden sand, it is the largest beach in the Mundaka estuary, and offers the possibility of a multitude of sports activities: windsurfing, canoeing, sailing...
But, without a doubt, the practice of surfing deserves special mention. It houses quality waves, long and soft, ideal for longboarding. Their currents also stand out. Mundaka surf schools operate in this area.
Another characteristic that distinguishes this Biscay beach is the shallow depth of its waters, ideal for children's bathing. In addition, in the middle of the sand, a beautiful dune is formed, from where we will see an excellent view of the mouth of the estuary, with the island of Izaro in the background.
8256 is seen leading the first portion of 3AS8, the Indian Pacific as it heads towards Platform 3 at Central on Wednesday 25th May 2016. This is believed to be one of the first times an 82 class has been part of the Indian Pacific loco combination.
It is believed the 82 class may replace the more regular DL class on Indian Pacific banking duties, required to assist the train up the Blue Mountains on the return leg to Adelaide. Pacific National currently have a number of spare 82 class locomotives due to the downturn in Hunter Valley coal traffic and recent loss of the Leigh Creek coal service.
Currently only taking clients from my past waiting list.
Will announce when I am taking new clients soon. ❤
Currently (July 2023), I'm working in the office mostly two days a week, three days from home.
What I miss from the office is my off-office time. During my work breaks, I go for a walk in the residential neighbourhood around the office.
another morning of wind gusts and blowing snow and icicles, but also occasional sunshine — the lemon tree is soaking it up, and brave George has gone out to sniff the air (after i cleared the snow accumulation off the porch table for him)
The Sierra Nevada is an upfaulted, tilted block of the Earth’s crust. As it uplifted the east-facing escarpment was cut into by the erosive action of wind, rain, temperature change, frost, and ice. Thus a series of steep canyons developed. The current relief of 10K' to 14K' along the eastern slopes of the southern Sierras attests to this great uplift, which is still occurring.

Swift Current Falls gets its name for a good reason. This is not a place you want to fall into the water. It would be more than a bumpy ride down. The locations is one of the easiest places to get to however most don’t see it from this angle because they look at it from the bridge above. While it looks good from above I really like the walk down to look back up at the falls and the Mountain in the background. I missed sunrise at this location because I was shooting wildlife but I would love to come back and shoot it during sunrise.
Thanks for your interest. Feel free to comment and/or follow me. I am happy to answer any questions.

I've loved it when I've tried it before, but life got in the way with prior attempts and it fell by the wayside.
I did read something else in the interim between the last entry, an insider account of the Mueller investigation. Not special and my life did not change.
UPDATE: I abandoned this; I decided I have too little time left remaining to me to spend on a purposely pointless book. All journey, no destination.
