Well,well,well,after yesterday mornings washout,today was most definately SUNDAY :)
I headed up to my favourite place,Howick Scar,where everything seemed just right.The sea was dead calm,with the small waves rolling gently ashore,the sky was devoid of rain clouds which were replaced with a really nice sunrise and despite the sub zero temperatures overnight,it felt really quite warm with the lack of any breeze,absolutely perfect.

Passing an hour and bit sketching indoors. The giraffes are gifts given to Carolynn by my mum and one of her work colleagues. If I have time I think a bit of colour will make a bit difference to the drawing.
Another difference with the Typhoon is that the EAP had a cranked wing, whereas the Typhoon has a straight leading edge. EAP was typically displayed with 6 dummy missiles. Each outboard weapons station carried an ASRAAM and four BAe Skyflash missiles were mounted under the fuselage. These were British developments of the American AIM-7 Sparrow and were also used on F-4 Phantoms in British service and the Tornado F.3, as well as Swedish Viggen fighters.

MAGDA IN MACHINA…
this title is a parody of the expression:
DEUS EX MACHINA…
The term means "The god out of the machine," and it refers to stage machinery in ancient Greek times (around the 5th century BC).
An actor, portraying as one of the Greek gods in a play, would be lowered out of the sky, onto the stage, behind the scene another actor orating the words of the god who then uses his divine powers to solve all the mortals' problems.
The term is a negative one, and it often implies a lack of skill on the part of the writer.
One of my personal examples is when a songwriter runs out of words and fills a song with lalalalala, ole ole ole ole, lol...
deus ex machine (Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary. 2008.)
Etymology: New Latin, a god from a machine, translation of Greek theos ek mēchanēs
1: a god introduced by means of a crane in ancient Greek and Roman drama to decide the final outcome
2: a person or thing (as in fiction or drama) that appears or is introduced suddenly and unexpectedly and provides a contrived solution to an apparently insoluble difficulty.

Well, after quite a long time, I've decided to give my old F-14 Tomcat another try. Since years have passed from my previous attempts, and both techniques and available bricks are now much more advanced, it's basically a completely new construction. There were two aspects which I was especially eager to include - the first one is the brick wing, the second - forward fuselage angling, which is commonly omitted despite being one of the signature features of the Tomcat. The angling is quite subtle (around 2.2 degrees), but considering the length of the plane (around 70 studs), it really makes a difference (around 7 plates in height). The model is still very much a work in progress, and I have still not addressed multiple issues, but I feel that some of you may find the already incorporated solutions interesting. I don't expect the model itself to be finished by Christmas, so it may take before you will see it finished (well, or not).
Having a godly, positive attitude will make all the difference in enjoying happiness, success, and contentment in life. “Words can never adequately convey the incredible impact of our attitude toward life. The longer I live the more convinced I become that life is 10 percent what happens to us and 90 percent how we respond to it.… When my attitude is right, there’s no barrier too high, no valley too deep, no dream too extreme, no challenge too great for me” (Charles Swindoll, Strengthening Your Grip).
1. Loving and serving God must have first priority in our thinking.
Deuteronomy 10:12–13 Now, people of Israel, listen to what the LORD your God demands of you: Worship the LORD and do all that he commands. Love him, serve him with all your heart, and obey all his laws. I am giving them to you today for your benefit. (GNT)
Joshua 23:11; 24:14–15; Matthew 22:37
2. We must maintain an eternal perspective in our thinking.
Colossians 3:2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. (ESV)
2 Corinthians 4:18 We look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal. (ESV)
Matthew 16:23–25; Romans 14:7–8
3. Our minds must be focused on spiritual things—what God desires for us.
Romans 8:5 Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. (NIV)
4. We must have transformed, renewed minds and must not think as unbelievers think.
Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. (ESV)
Ephesians 4:17–24
5. We must think sacrificially, placing others ahead of ourselves.
John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lays down his life for his friends. (ESV)
Ephesians 4:2; Philippians 2:3–7
6. A humble attitude is pleasing to God. Sinful pride he clearly hates.
Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the LORD is hatred of evil. Pride and arrogance and the way of evil and perverted speech I hate. (ESV)
Romans 12:3 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. (ESV)
Proverbs 11:2; 16:18; 18:12; Romans 12:16
7. When others have wronged us, an attitude of forgiveness is commanded. Bitterness must be put away.
Ephesians 4:30–32 And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you. (ESV) Romans 12:17–21

This was the only tree with pink flowers while others had white flowers though it does not mean this type is peculiar.
The worst joke is the one you have to explain.
One picture shows the doll when their box was opened for the first time.
The other shows them put in again after their first photoshoot.
One difference should be obvious, the dolls have changed places. Others are harder to spot.
Can you find them all?

Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference
Gloomy weather today. Took this right outside my doorstep, but not sure what does little flowers are called. Heard from some of my friends that our local Cherry Blossom has bloomed, and I promised myself not to miss it like last year.
Hope everyone have a relaxing sunday!

This is the Little Gem Theater in Detroit. I had pictures already during the day, so I thought I would combine some and make a collage. The Gem Theatre in Detroit (built 1927) houses a two level theatre with traditional row and aisle seating and intimate stage-level seating at cabaret tables. It shares a lobby with the cabaret style Century Theatre (built 1903). The theatre has stylings of Spanish Revival architecture. The structure was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. In 1902, the Twentieth Century Club, a group of cultural, socially prominent women, built a Mission-style building to house their club. The building, now the Century Theatre, is built of red brick trimmed with white sandstone. The first floor originally housed a dining room, while the second floor housed a 400-seat auditorium.
In 1928, the member of the Century club contracted George D. Mason to design a theater addition to the Century Club building. The resulting Spanish Revival-style building was leased to the Little Theatre chain, which showed foreign films, and the building was known as the Little Theatre.
In 1933, due to the Depression, the Twentieth Century Club disbanded. The Little Theatre, however, continued, suffering through several name changes, becoming The Rivoli in 1932, Drury Lane (and then the Europa in 1935, the Cinema in 1936, and the Vanguard Playhouse in 1960. The Vanguard offered live theater rather than movies.
Finally, in 1967, the theatre was named the Gem. The building was used as an adult movie house until it closed in 1978. Soon afterward, developer Charles Forbes purchased the combined Gem/Century building, and began a complete restoration of the Gem Theatre in 1990. The refurbished Gem opened in 1991.
Protected from demolition during urban renewal for Comerica Park, the newest home of the Detroit Tigers, the Gem Theatre and Century Theatre were moved five-blocks on wheels to its new location at 333 Madison Street on 16 October 1997. At a distance of 563 meters (1,850 feet) it is the furthest known relocation of a sizable building. *Info from Wiki
Listen. -- and cry. Beautiful song.
FIRST OFF: I realize I have been quite absent the whole summer. And although I have actually seen a lot of your photos lately I feel terrible for not taking the time to comment and talk to you. I am stuck in this weird state when I feel like I am super busy all the time, when in reality I haven't been doing that much. I just got back from Girls Camp and next week will be seeing relatives I don't often see. It actually will be getting busy with the beginning of my first high school year (I will be a sophomore) approaching. I hope you all haven't lost hope in me and moved on, because I still think all of you are amazing.
SECOND: My family went to this old mine ruin for family night. There was graffiti everywhere. I wouldn't say it was the vulgar type of graffiti. I read the most interesting things on those walls. I will be uploading more from the adventure in the next few days.
PS. If you have sent me a message and I haven't responded I will try to tonight or tomorrow.
:D
Ant trees (Triplaris gardneriana) are dioecious, having either very showy female or distinctly different male flowers, as seen here.

My brother in law married a beautiful English girl and our families finally met. I just wish there was some way to tell who the americans are?
If someone pays a closer look at two similar shots taken by different cameras, will easily understand the difference between the uniqueness of the colors produced by each one of them ... Every camera has its own color profile and greatly influences the chromatic character of the shot taken ...
It so happens that I personally enjoy both the dull and intense colors of my NIKON D90, as well as the extremely vivid and "full of life" colors produced by my compact Panasonic DMC-ZX1 ...
All that I'm trying to do during the processing part is to close my eyes and try to emulate the lighting conditions that I remember having in front of me at the exact moment I took the shot (s) ...
At the shot seen above a heavy rain is imminent at the horizon and the first drops are alerady falling over our heads !!!! The chromatic contrast that declares the season's character is amazing !!!
EXIF: Panasonic DMC-ZX1 with Leica lens, Normal Program (choices made by user), f 3,3, Focal Length 26 mm, ISO 80, Pattern metering mode, cloudy weather adjusted white balance, auto focus mode, HDR made by three original shots with shutter speeds 1/8 s, 1/15 s, 1/30 s and corresponding EV values +1, 0, -1, no tripod, flash didn't go off, shots were bracketed automatically by Panasonic DMC-ZX1 with only one click ...

60026 Helvellyn is at the head of 6N84 04.50 Tyne Coal Terminal - Lynemouth Power Station loaded biomass, pictured approaching Bedlington on the line from Morpeth. 66712 Peterborough Power Signalbox is on the rear, and will lead the train after its reversal south of Bedlington. [Pole, 3/6 sections (~4m)]
This was my main reason for spending a few days in the north-east. Lynemouth biomass trains were being diverted via Morpeth while work to prepare their normal route south of Bedlington for the reintroduction of passenger services was being completed. The line between Bedlington and Morpeth normally sees very little traffic, essentially only the alumina trains between North Blyth and Fort William, which run two or three times each week, and at times which make them very difficult to photograph on the line. I'd seen a heavily backlit shot of the empties along this stretch, taken a few years ago late one summer evening, and realised that the light angle would be perfect early in the morning... The diverted biomass trains looked like they would provide the perfect opportunity to do the shot, especially after driving along here when I visited in April. The line runs almost east-west at this point.
But the first biomass train was booked to arrive at Bedlington at around 6am - and back in April, that was just before sunrise. The empties going back (with a loco on the rear, of course) and the next loaded train (if it ran) would be over four hours later, by which time the sun would be almost exactly in line with the track. My only hope was that there would be some good weather during May half term week (when it would be light enough at 6am), and that this train ran.
But the weather during half term was poor, and I stayed at home. However, a few weeks later (closer to the summer solstice - so a slightly earlier sunrise) there was a sunny week forecast, so I took a week off work. Unfortunately, I wasn't free to drive up until Monday and, typically, the forecast changed so that Monday was wall-to-wall sun but Tuesday and Wednesday mornings were to be thick cloud (Wednesday was also misty), and Thursday and Friday were "sun and cloud". Early Saturday morning was initially looking very good (that subsequently changed to full cloud), but there were no trains running - I assume there was an engineering possession. In the end I drove up on Wednesday (having spent much of Monday ill in bed!) - although that meant I was around at home when GBRf's Colas-liveried 60096 was hired to DCR and worked to and from Brandon (getting three shots of it on Tuesday's empties).
Then the news came through of a serious warehouse fire at the Port of Tyne, which had started on Wednesday afternoon, and it looked like there would be no trains to Lynemouth on Thursday - and there weren't (although the train which had spent the night there did eventually make it back to Tyne Dock - see this photo). But it was looking good for Friday's trains - one set of wagons only, so just two return trips rather than the four for which schedules existed - with 6N84 having been "called" (activated) and with locos showing before I went to bed the previous evening. The alarm was set for 4.15am.
Bedlington is about half an hour's drive from my mother's house (as long as there are no traffic queues at the Tyne Tunnel), so I was here in plenty of time, although the train had set off before I did. But as I drove along Barrington Road, I began to wonder if it had all been in vain: I'd not accounted for the low sun still being behind some tall trees on the north side of the road - and where I'd planned to shoot the train, a stretch completely clear of lineside vegetation and with the railway only a few feet higher than the road, was still in shadow. There was also a lot of cloud around, and it was difficult to see whether the sun would rise enough in the short time to at least light the train, but it looked very unlikely. Luckily I found a spot further along that was shadow-free, but the difference in levels between the road and railway was greater and, more significantly, a few low bushes partly blocked the view of the train; the shot wouldn't be anything like as good.
So I set up here to make the best of the situation. The original plan to use a slight telephoto lens went out of the window because the gap between the bushes was so short, and I needed to stand closer to make the most of the gap. There was also the added complication that the lower road meant I needed to use the pole, but it was a very windy morning... I just about managed to hold it steady at this height, but I've had to combine two frames in order to restore the top of the lamppost to the shot where the loco was in the best position. The sun had been out when I arrived, but had soon dropped back behind some thin cloud, although there was another gap on the way - but probably not soon enough, so I was resigned to getting a dull shot. However, miraculously, as the train came into view - six minutes early (so just before 6am), there was a brighter burst, with some weak shadows; I clung onto the pole to try my best to keep it steady, pressed the shutter, and hoped for the best!
I was amazed how well it has come out, especially given the aperture is larger than I usually like to use. When the images were viewed on the back of the camera, the train leapt out (probably helped by the dark sky), and I drove off happy. In processing, I've increased the brightness slightly and used the haze reduction function a little, albeit less than I sometimes do on sunny pictures.
Bedlington railway station was built slightly to the east of Bedlington, and, as has happened in many places, a new settlement grew up around the station - so this area is officially known as Bedlington Station, although both Bedlington and Bedlington Station have expanded to become a single built-up area. Barrington Industrial Estate (as on the road sign) was built on the site of Barrington Colliery, established in 1821 on land leased from Lord Barrington, and closed in 1948. All the "Barrington" references in the area are about the one-time local landowner - but it made me smile as I'd started this week photographing the spoil empties from the landfill site that was once Barrington Cement Works close to the Cambridgeshire village of Barrington!
I ended my day of photography, over fourteen and a half hours later, stood further down this road and looking the other way...
