Bus Eireann SC274 & 310 pass at Busaras, March 2012.
SC310 entered service very recently, while SC274 comes from the 2008 batch.
The Mirrors are the first noticeable difference.....
Another from our mini adventure to the DuPage Children's Museum. I try to get high colour shots when i there as they have so many wacky coloured walls etc, but this shot just had the carpet in it, which when converted to black & white give a cool ripple texture, in my opinion anyway.
The difference between a carousel and a merry-go-round is that one goes clockwise and the other counterclockwise. True? Actually, there’s really no difference between the names, although in England and much of Europe, these rides usually go clockwise; in the U.S., it’s the opposite. And to some Americans, a merry-go-round is simply that spinning playground fixture for kids.
I looked at the sky and thought that looks interesting, I looked in the viewfinder and it was different. I took two shots and they were different. I processed one, three times and there were more differences. I think skies are the most difficult to get back to what caught your eye in the first place, and are probably one of the most significant aspects of your photographic style.
Bias (solid) and ±1 sigma variability (dashed) of CloudSat-AIRS cloud top height differences for V4 (black) and V5 (red), and for the upper (top panel) and lower (bottom panel). Improvements to cloud retrievals were obtained in V5 over V4, which are more apparent in the upper cloud layer comparisons. In fact, the high height biases for low clouds decreases by 1-4 km and the low height biases in high clouds decreases by 0.5-1.0 km.

About AIRS
The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder, AIRS, in conjunction with the Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit, AMSU, sense emitted infrared and microwave radiation from the Earth to provide a three-dimensional look at Earth's weather and climate. Working in tandem, the two instruments make simultaneous observations all the way down to the Earth's surface, even in the presence of heavy clouds. With more than 2,000 channels sensing different regions of the atmosphere, the system creates a global, 3-dimensional map of atmospheric temperature and humidity, cloud amounts and heights, greenhouse gas concentrations, and many other atmospheric phenomena. The AIRS and AMSU fly onboard NASA's Aqua spacecraft and are managed by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California, under contract to NASA. JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

Sequence differences between eight S. cerevisiae strains, S. paradoxus and S. bayanus.
A: Schematics of PDR5 gene regions; B: Amino acid difference for whole PDR5 sequence; C: Amino acid difference for transmembrane domain regions of PDR5 sequence. The topology information for the WT Pdr5p was downloaded from UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot database (www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P33302). PDR5 DNA sequences of eight strains of S. cerevisiae (DBVPG1788, DBVPG1853, K11, NCYC361, S288c, YJM789, YJM981 and YPS606) were downloaded from a recent study [41]. Only the DNA sequences without any frame-shift mutations were used in this study. DNA sequences of PDR5 gene in S. paradoxus and S. bayanus were downloaded from NCBI database. The phylogenetic tree of these species was adapted from Fitzpatrick et al. [60]. The data were analyzed by Matlab and the different color schemes represent levels of amino acid similarity.
Although Jimi & I had our artistic differences, I'm forever grateful to him for asking me to join him in the 1970s Portland punk community. During this period, we opened for (or shared cards with) The Wipers (Greg Sage), Black Flag, Henry Rollins, the Dead Kennedy's (Jello Biafra), Napalm Beach, The Rats (Fred Cole), The Malchicks (Billy Rancher), The Cleavers (Chris Warner) & others. When the Dill's came to Portland, they requested The Inputs open for them.

An old abbey in Bristol, I didn't make a note of the name of the place.
There are six differences between the photos (not including brightness, contrast) the obvious one is the sky, the question is which one is the original image?
Raccoon in top photo is from the east coast of North America while the raccoon in the bottom photo is from the west coast. There definitely seems to be regional differences in appearance to me. Looking at raccoons from Stanley Park (difference of about 40 miles from my place), they look pretty much the same as mine. And all my raccoons look very similar. Wthout any identifying scars, bad eyes or other features, I can't tell who's who.
Raccoons on the east coast look quite different to me & I think anyone looking at these two photos would agree. I can't say if the look of the top raccoon is typical. It's of a raccoon mother who visited Gale's (yeimaya) place & her photo too, of course.
What I've seen that looks different are (I'll use my raccoon to point out differences since she's typical & I don't know if Gale's is).
West coast compared to east coast:
- ears are further apart on top of the head
-ears are less furry
- face looks broader
- less of a ruff around the side of the face
- a bit darker vertical facial streak extending to meet the nose in a solid band (can be seen better in my Water Baby photo) www.flickr.com/photos/judesjewels/7632644222/
I find it hard to quantify what's different exactly but it's like facial recognition - alter a familiar face in some small ways & suddenly, it looks like a different person. It's what I've found when I look at raccoon photos of others here on Flickr. Either they look 'familiar' or they don't. Where raccoons that live in the middle of the continent fit in, I couldn't say.
Has anyone else noticed that raccoons look a little different depending on where they're found? I'd love to know, please!
Nuance. Holding this journal, the difference is tangible. Not a perfect book, but perfect for someone. The Zerkall Frankfurt paper is truly lovely.
9.75" x 7" 96 sheets (192 pages, both sides)
Materials
>About the leather: Kodiak Oil-Tanned Leather, dark brown.
Here is a leather as rugged as its name implies. This oil-tanned leather has pronounced grain that gives character to the soft hide that is durable and moisture resistant. 4 oz.
The leather detail on front cover flap is a bit of green nubuck cowhide (an old favorite).
>About the paper: Frankfurt, Ivory, by Zerkall
Characterized by irregular 'wavy' laid lines and the sexy Zerkall watermark, Frankfurt is a delight to handle. Writing on this artisan paper versus commercial paper is a world of difference. But don't take my word for it!
Zerkall Renker & Sohne paper mill, run by the Renker family in its fourth generation, dates from 16th century in the valley of the river Kall between Cologne and Aachen in Germany. Although the mill now only manufactures mouldmade papers, their sheets mirror papers of the past while incorporating modern technology to insure stability and permanence. Zerkall mixes exacting amounts of cotton rag and high alpha cellulose to obtain sheets that are strong, yet able to absorb ink without bleeding. All their papers are acid free, neutral sized, alkaline buffered with calcium carbonate and contain no optical brighteners.
>About the endpaper: Egyptian Papyrus
Papyrus was, and continues today to be handmade from the papyrus reed that grows in freshwater marshes along the river Nile, though today this growth is rare and controlled. Egyptians considered it the "everlasting" paper because it has been found in perfect condition in tombs dating back to 2700 B.C.

Difference in using DX at 200mm and FX with 300mm. These are SOOC JPG's. The only difference was scaling the size of the D90 to match the D750's output.
One would think that a 200mm in DX and a 300mm in FX would yield an identical image but it won't simply because of the difference in the actual projected image changing the relative size and position of the scene. This can be seen at the difference in the windows on the right, the size and position of the two houses on the middle in the back and specially the top window on the right.
This was also a good test for the sharpness of the 70-200 with an old lower resolution sensor and the sensor of the D750 with an good lens.

BALLOT BOX
Friday 7 and Saturday 8 July, 9pm, £10/£8.
King’s Arms Theatre, 11 Bloom Street, Salford M3 6AN.
‘This vote is the most important decision our generation will potentially ever make’. Ballot Box is a short, satirical comedy that follows the final weeks of the 2016 EU Referendum televised campaign. Set in a London studio flat, two unemployed actresses watch the political pantomime unfold on the box. Originating from opposing backgrounds, the women hold different values, resulting in a hilariously tumultuous relationship. However, on the morning of the referendum result, one of the characters receives tragic news, altering both their lives forever. Ballot Box raises questions about values, friendship, loyalty and overcoming differences. The relationship between the women is a reflection of a split nation facing change and confusion.

One of the forty gargoyles and grotesques around the church.
Winchcombe is a lesser sister of the great wool churches. The building is guarded by forty of the country's finest gargoyles: devils, people and eccentrics, and the effect is extraordinary.
The tower has eight pinnacles and a large golden weathercock, given by St Mary Redcliffe, Bristol, when the latter's spire was restored in 1874.
Winchcombe was built new on older foundations in 1454-70. The abbot of the monastery built the chancel and the townspeople the nave. The chancel was rebuilt in 1690 and its roof raised. The interior is thus a single large space, where the only difference between nave and chancel is in the tracery.
The east window glass, by John Hardman in 1885, is considered one of his masterpieces and portrays Christ calming the storm surrounded by his disciples aboard a large ship. The sedilia are Perpendicular.
Across the chancel is a curious memorial to Thomas Williams (d.1636). He is kneeling, supposedly to face his wife, but she is not there. She apparently survived to marry a second time and wished instead to join her second husband in death.
Behind a curtain in the north aisle is a former altar cloth, beautifully embroidered. The border shows the pomegranate emblem of Catherine of Aragon, who stayed at neighbouring Sudeley. The cloth was made up from 14th century priests' copes. This is a great treasure, as are the carvings on the west screen, which include one known as the Winchcombe Imp.
If it wasn't obvious enough already, I did not do much reading on Pokemon B & W before it got released.
I decided to restart the game, since I was torn on what pokemon to get into my team and I already went through most of the game so I had no trainers to fight and nothing to do =/.
Ah well, I made my mind up and got my new team ready now, but this time I'm playing as a Female character.
But as for the for interface..everything was pink..and hearts everywhere, why hearts! gah XD
The Pink DS is my sister's and is running Pokemon White with a male character. The Black DSi is running Pokemon Black with a Female Character.
St Peter and St Paul, Knapton, Norfolk
Here we are again in the rolling landscape up near the north-east coast, and if this area can sometimes be a little bleak in winter, in summer it is a joy to behold. In any case St Peter and St Paul is nicely tucked away in its little village, sheltered in a fold of the hills that lie just inland. As usual around here, a 15th century rebuilding has left big windows and a building full of light. A refreshing difference is that the tower is offset, suggesting that the original church was to the north of the present one. The priest door in the chancel has its own little porch, a smaller version of the one at nearby Trunch. These are unusual. Presumably, someone local thought it was a good idea, which it is, and you can't help wondering why there aren't more of them.
Like Needham Market in Suffolk, Knapton's otherwise fairly run-of-the-mill late medieval church is saved by one extraordinary feature, its roof. The double-hammerbeam is also one of the widest in England, crossing about 12 metres in a single span, a remarkable feat. However, while it is the technical brilliance of Needham Market that makes it outstanding, here at Knapton the roof is more reminiscent of another great Suffolk roof, Woolpit. As at Woolpit, the vast array of angels and other figures creates a sense of business, as though we are looking up into, I suppose, heaven itself. But these are no mere decoration. Rather, they were probably intended as a psalm of praise, a liturgical adjunct to the devotions of the Catholic faithful in the nave below. For this reason, they were frowned on by protestants and in many cases destroyed.
At Woolpit, the puritan iconoclast William Dowsing found no fault with the angel roof during his visit of January 1644, because it had already been stripped of 'superstitious imagery' by the Anglican reformers of a century earlier. So virtually all the angels there are Victorian. How about at Knapton? Well, I was interested to come across an 1882 report from William Morris's Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings describing a visit to Knapton church. The SPAB was in the habit of dropping in on medieval churches which were undergoing restoration to make sure that the job was being done properly. At Knapton, the late Victorian restoration was at the hands of the great George Gilbert Scott. The Society journal records that a deputation from the Society having visited this church, about to be restored by Mr. G. G. Scott, reported that it was of great architectural value, possessing among other things a very fine old Perpendicular roof, rich with carving and painted decoration. A letter was addressed to Mr. Scott by the Committee, explaining their views as to what ought and ought not to be done, which Mr. Scott received in a very friendly spirit, expressing his agreement with the views of the Society in this instance.
Here at Knapton, many of the angels in the rafters do indeed appear to be medieval, but in any case the great restoration of the roof here was in the 1930s, and the larger angels on the wall posts date from this time, although the figures of saints, kings and prophets set in the posts above them do appear to be unrestored. Perhaps we may assume that the 1930s would have meant a restoration more focused on preserving details than that of half a century earlier, and this is why so much sense of the original is retained.
Below the great roof is one of the great Norfolk font covers, a beautiful white 18th century Palladian affair bearing the palindromic Greek sentence NIYON ANOMHMA MH MONAN OYIN - 'wash my sins not my face only'. A cover of this description was noted at Hingham in the 1840s, but did not survive the comprehensive Victorian restoration there. I wonder if this could be the same one?
There is a spectacular deep-cut ledger stone with a skull and winged egg timer for the appropriately named Richard Flight, and a single pre-Reformation brass inscription still asking for prayers for the soul of its owner. The heartily restored rood screen has curious little gates with fluted columns. All in all I must say that I like Knapton for being unusual and idiosyncratic just as much as I do for its wonderful roof.
