Dhaka, Bangladesh, 2011.
People has a lot of differences.
Some of them prefer to live on the ground.
Some of them grasp the ladder.

"It is better to have a meaningful life and make a difference than to merely have a long life."

It's true that you get what you pay for.
I came across this shot and wanted to post it as a comparison to the previous picture:

As I said before we did have a few minutes wait for the tender to the ship to arrive but we were provided with some nice cold face and neck towels and some very refreshing flavored waters (Orange and Lime) and I'm not talking some powdered drink mix!
When you take a cruise holiday your every need is catered to and you've got nothing to worry about.
Sometimes it's easy to forget that there are a LOT of people both in the front and back of the house that make things happen for your dream vacation. Folks that aren't on holiday, they're working at their jobs to provide for their families back home.
If you should ever go on a cruise I hope that you won't forget these folks and will let them know that you appreciate the hard work they put in to make things easy for you. They bust their butts so that you don't have to.

There are parts I really like and some that I'm not so sure of, but I spent a lot of time working with it and I just couldn't trash it. It's my first foray into textures. I hope it's not too awful. Constructive criticism always, always welcome :)
Scroll down a bit for the original.
Thank you to Stuck in Customs textures.
written on the bag is "together we will make the difference"....sure we will! Guess he (she) also gave up biking.

Well, I was worried when I saw the first IRL pics of the new Adele 1.0 that she didn't look like her promo shots... But I needn't have worried! In fact I like the slight questioning, almost fierce look that my doll has 😍 She's AWESOME!!! 💗💗💗

Many countries have armies of all different shapes and sizes. Some have only small defensive armies, while others have larger more readily available armies. The difference between major nations and minor nations is that the major nations continuously develop and field new vehicles and equipment, while minor nations simple buy older and even obsolete vehicles from major nations. The percentage of each countries military budget inevitably goes towards some form of research for new vehicles, not all of which make it past the drawing board. There are many reasons for this, such as, too expensive, too complex to build, mechanically unreliable, too heavy or too light, or there is simply no real demand for such a vehicle, plus many more. However, the worst reason that a tank never makes it beyond the drawing board, no matter it's potential, is political interference.
There is an established hierarchy in the Tarakian military, made up of long serving loyalists, decorated military personnel, and people with family connections. Although this cohort have served the nation well, they are often criticized of being stubborn, inflexible, unopen to change, and stuffy. For some time, there has been a growing dissatisfaction with the way the upper echelon of Tarakian military is comprised. A new, younger, more progressive generation have been growing support in favour of change, not aggressive change, but a reform on how major decisions in the military are made. A push for a wider group collective, rather than a cabal of cigar smokers deciding among themselves in their reclusive corridors of power.
The Established, and the Progressives. The Established, eager to maintain the status quo and of the mindset that you don't fix what isn't broken. The Progressives, understanding that if you follow a set military doctrine for long enough, eventually someone will study it and find a way around it. Knowing the Established would never freely relinquish an inch of power, the Progressives knew they had to formulate a plan to take it. Even though the Progressives don't have the power to sway final decisions, they do hold considerable power when it comes to initiating research and testing, with the final say on production being left to higher powers. Their plan was to put forward a vehicle that on paper, would be easy for the Established to dismiss, and then use it to prevent the Progressives from putting forward such projects in the future. The Progressives were betting on the Established being complacent and arrogant about the situation, and not fully appreciating the situation. Research and testing can be initiated by the Progressives, so there was nothing the Established could do to prevent this.
During testing, it quickly became apparent that the Established had underestimated the Progressives, and their project. The new tank, named Onyx, not only passed all tests, but surpassed them by a margin the Established would be unable to dismiss. Scrambling for a way to save face, and to prevent the Onyx from making it to production, a tank they see as too aggressive for a purely defensive army, the Established reluctantly concede just enough power to the Progressives on the condition that the Onyx doesn't make it beyond testing. However, knowing they have the upper hand, and could push the Onyx into production, the Progressives accept the deal, with the condition that a set number of production batches will be run, and small regiments of Onyx tanks will be given to front line battalions. The Established, knowing they have no choice but to agree, and concede certain future decision making powers.
Though the tank is rather large, space inside is quite limited. Due to the unusual design of the vehicle, it has a rather shallow hull, which therefore limits overall internal space. At least one third of the vehicles internal space is taken up by the engine and gearbox, with the remaining space being taken up by the crew, gun, and ammunition. The unique shape of the tank comes from it's unusual design, where a SafeShell system is encased in heavily angled, bolt on composite armour. The nose section of the tank is made entirely from composite armour, and is impenetrable to all known anti tank projectiles.
The onyx is intended to be used as a heavy breakthrough tank that will spearhead armoured assaults. Taking advantage of a combination of impenetrable frontal hull armour, immense engine power, the stability from the double track pod system, and a fully stabilised 130mm auto loaded gun. The idea is to overwhelm the enemy with firepower and speed. Even though the tank weighs in at 72tons, it has the mobility and speed of a medium tank. This incredible performance comes from the 2200hp engine and the double track pod system, which gives excellent off road acceleration and maneuvering. Due to having four sets of tracks, the tank has unmatched weight distribution, which allows it operate in terrain that any other tank of this weight would get bogged down. This gives the Onyx unique tactical options that any other tank of it's weight simply wouldn't have.
The gun is the same 130mm found on Ares MkII main battle tank, but has been heavily modified to work in conjunction with a new auto loading system, and a new stabilizer. A bore extractor and a new muzzle break have been added in combination with the 6-rounds per minute firing rate. With internal space at a premium, the Onyx can only carry a meager 36 rounds, of which only the ammunition stored in the turret are stored in blow out compartments. The Onyx only carries one type of ammunition, which is an APDSFS round with 750mm of penetration. A firing rate of six rounds per minute can be achieved thanks to the completely automatic loading system. Two 20mm auto-cannons are located on either side of the main gun, which are intended for enemy infantry, since the tank carries no high explosive rounds. A roof mounted .50 machine gun can be controlled from the commanders control panel.
Due to the rather flat design of the hull, no existing engine would be suitable without a protrusion either on the bottom, or top of the tank, so a new engine had to be designed. A micro fusion reaction was initially considered, but after some number crunching, the price per unit became unjustifiable. Although reluctant to design an entirely new engine, approval was granted for testing, and a prototype multi fuel engine capable of producing 2200hp was produced. Unfortunately, due to the torque produced by such a powerful engine, a new gearbox had to be designed to cope with the stress, and to accommodate the track pod system.
Space inside the tank is limited to such a degree that there isn't even room for fuel tanks, however this turned out to be a blessing for the design. Eight individual fuel tanks are housed in the superstructure of the track pods, four per side. Having the fuel tanks exposes them to potential damage in combat, and even though they're only protected by 50mm of armour in either side, each tank has it's own fuel cut off system. Additionally, the fuel tanks as a whole are safeguarded by a sophisticated fire prevention system, which rapidly fills the damaged tank with an inert expanding foam that instantly douses any flames in the event of a breech to any tank and a subsequent fire.
Due to the unusual design of the hull, limited internal space, and the front nose section being comprised entirely of composite armour, the drivers position is in the turret basket, meaning that he rotates when the turret does. This placement was unavoidable, and caused several of the test drivers to experience motion sickness due to the changeable orientation. The Onyx has a crew of four, including a commander, gunner, driver, and a loader.

Two British Telecom Bedford HA vans displayed at Thorne's Park Wakefield. There are a number of detailed differences......can you spot them?
I am not 100% sure that the van on the right is a genuine ex-Telecom van
My attempt at showing the color differences on our moon's surface. These subtle colors can be brought out easily with astronomy cameras and heavy saturation, but they cannot be seen with our naked eye due to the moon's extreme surface brightness.
The colors are controlled by variations in iron and titanium content. The most notable red to blue color change in the Mare regions is caused by titanium oxide.

This is the 2nd one in the series i have posted. The difference between the previous shot and the one in this posting is the diagonally opposite shutter speed and a further small aperture used here to capture the light circling around the bottle thin and to wait and fill the glass vessel inside battle with fumes all aruond with a higher opening time.
The 4 sec opening has helped capture the reflections of light from the ambience as well.... This bottle was in a pitch dark place. But it has made me lose the detail of the bottle inside slightly due to overexposure.
Hope you appreciate this experiment.

As the evening began to kick in the pair of Stone Curlew (Burhinus oedicnemus insularum) got more active, giving some stunning views in the process, in stark contrast to the distant views we can get of the ones that breed in the UK.
It was even possible to see the subtle differences between the male and female they were so close
