I've said my bit on what counts as Cyberpunk or not before and I won't do it again. I'll just say that I never liked the scale of Lego's official motorcycles, All being massive, bloated, ugly hunks of plastic dwarfing the minifigs that are supposed to ride them. I wish they would go back the scale they had in '83-'96, and if I ever start up a 3rd party part maker properly-scaled motorcycles are on my list of pieces to make. Either way, I tried to solve that issue myself with just stock pieces. I ended up with something that's only so marginally smaller than Lego's current offerings that it really doesn't make a difference, but the design took too much effort and I'm honestly too proud of to dump. So here we are.
A close comparison shot of a black-headed gull (rear) and a Mediterranean gull in winter plumage. The bill of the latter is heavier and it's hood remnants extend closer to the back of the head. However, the most obvious difference is the wings, with obvious black tips for the black-headed gull.

See, here is the difference between what Monsieur Vraets does and what I do in similar photographic ventures: he plans it out, pictures the shot in his mind's eye and skillfully captures it in all its glory... me, I go in shooting like I got a rapid fire Uzi stuck to my eye, rattling off frames like as if tomorrow wasn't going to happen and then spend an enormous amount of time sorting through 700 shots in the hope that one just, well, kinda ain't bad.
Shuwaikh port - Kuwait
The photograph shows a bit of the indifference in the municipality's supervision on coastal locations in Kuwait. As you can see, the beach is full of rubbish and dirt which has destroyed the natural look of the sand. Making the place somehow unusable. Anyway, it is also related to the people's awareness of this subject. I think multimedia means in the country must pay attention to this problem and raise people's awareness.
Technical Data:
It is not a HDR photograph, the bottom part is exposed by hitting a lot of flashes - which made me blind =D - by me and my friend. The white balance was taken down to 2700 to give this pinkish mood to the photo. Long exposure was used in order to prevent noise from high ISO and to give a special effect to the water.

Are they really different?
How man are different? On, two or three?
What is the reason of the difference?
The thickness? The color? The material?
Are they really different? They all are ropes ....
There was a time, there was always a time. A time when she was nothing more than a figure in the crosshairs of some scope, years had passed with this being the case. Something had changed, a point of no return... he wasn't just a thick headed marine anymore following orders, he was here by his own free will.
Another from the archives again..
Good news about the camera. My insurance will be paying out but they wanted me to pay the difference of £130 between their supplier and what I paid for mine. Then they suggested I could buy it and they would send me a cheque once I had provided proof of purchase, but I can't do that either as totally skint. The last option that I have suggested is that I provide proof of supplier and they send me a cheque. Hopefully they will agree with this but I think it will take a couple more weeks as I need to clear the cheque and then transfer to PayPal as buying off ebay.
I am now pulling out what hair I have...
Doing long exposure and Photoshop tuition around the Edinburgh area if anyone is interested please PM me.
Also will be selling my water damaged Canon 7d. I believe it is the microprocessor that has blown as it functions apart from live view and the image doesn't process but everything else is fine. So if anyone wants to take this on or wants spares please let me know before I put it on ebay.
St Maarten and St Martin - Caribbean - Dutch and French
What is the difference between St Maarten and St Martin?
During the 17th Century there was intermittent rivalry between the Dutch and French for control of the island and its salt mines. In 1648 the two countries signed the Treaty of Concordia which divided the island in two and urged its people to live in a cooperative manner.
Saint Martin (French: Saint-Martin; Dutch: Sint Maarten) is an island in the northeast Caribbean Sea, approximately 300 km (190 mi) east of Puerto Rico. The 87-square-kilometre (34 sq mi) island is divided roughly 60:40 between the French Republic (53 km2, 20 sq mi)[1] and the Kingdom of the Netherlands (34 km2, 13 sq mi),[2] but the two parts are roughly equal in population. The division dates to 1648. The southern Dutch part comprises Sint Maarten and is one of four constituent countries that form the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The northern French part comprises the Collectivity of Saint Martin and is an overseas collectivity of the French Republic. As part of France, the French part of the island is also part of the European Union.
What a difference a day makes; last Friday I was at a press call for the Moscow State Circus and the on Saturday I photographed a massive Orange Lodge march through Johnstone involving over 40 bands (it took at least 40 minutes to pass my viewpoint). While most people probably think that such marches are only held in Northern Ireland they are very much part of life here in Scotland as well as in parts of England. The weather was kind for once, if not a little too sunny given the length of their march, marching all round the town while playing their instruments and carrying their various banners is no mean feat!!
I am in the small town of Dubois, WY tonight. It is 80 miles from Yellowstone National Park, which is where we are heading in the morning.
This is what I see behind the motel we are in.
The difference between the two of them is pretty accurate in this picture. Londyn is just so tiny compared to Brooklyn. Brooklyn does not have ankles. She has "fankles" aka fat ankles. I think she has my ankles at the end of my pregnancy.
Last doc's visit there was a 2 pound difference between them but I'm curious to see if next time the difference will be greater.
“What is the difference between a squash and a pumpkin?”
Well, to keep it simple, pumpkin is one type of squash and squash generally refers to four species of genus cucurbita, including the species to which pumpkin belongs. So, to make it clearer, both squash and pumpkin belong to the same family (the cucurbitaceae). A pumpkin is a type of squash. Squash is considered a fruit and it grows on a vine. Here in the US and Canada, we usually break down the squash family to winter or summer squash, depending on when they are harvested.
One thing that makes pumpkin a little different from other squash, besides being orange with yellow-orange skin, is its stem. Anyone who has ever handled one knows that its stem is stiff and spikey. Another thing that sets pumpkin apart from its sisters in the squash family is that its seeds are edible.
Pumpkin can be grown in many parts of the world whereas growing other varieties of squash is more restricted by specific weather conditions. At the market, our world magically comes together. There you’ll find many varieties, some edible, others ornamental.
Biscayne Park, FL
At first, I spotted the Green Heron and tried to zoom in to photograph. I snapped a few shots and then realized that the tree itself was interesting. I changed my position to shoot the tree and that made all the difference with the background. It turned out better than expected.

Paint makes a Big Difference.

The massive onslaught of look-alike General Electric motive power on today's railroads has taken a lot of the fun out of this hobby, but when those things have a decent paint job, they can breathe a little life back into being a railfan.

After a while, you learn the subtle difference between holding a hand and chaining a soul. You learn
that love doesn’t mean leaning,
and company doesn’t always mean security. And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts, that presents aren’t promises; and you begin to accept your defeats with your head up, and your eyes ahead - with the grace of woman, not the grief of a child. You learn to build all your roads on today, because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans, and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much. So you plant your own garden, and decorate your own soul, instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
You learn that you really can endure.
That you really are strong.
That you really do have worth.
And you learn,
and you learn,
with every goodbye, you learn. - Veronica Shoffstall

This whole day was amazing! I wanted to do my take on "Cupid, Reimagined" in this shot. I wanted to show Cupid as someone who, instead of shooting lovers down, collects flowers and teaches people to be the right person to themselves first - not a prerequisite for "love" per se, but certainly for a deep and long-standing love.
by Remigius Hogenbergh,print,published 1572
Matthew Parker (6 August 1504 – 17 May 1575) was Archbishop of Canterbury from 1559 until his death in 1575. He was also an influential theologian and arguably the co-founder (with Thomas Cranmer and Richard Hooker) of Anglican theological thought.
Parker was one of the primary architects of the Thirty-Nine Articles, the defining statements of Anglican doctrine. The Parker collection of early English manuscripts, including the book of St. Augustine Gospels and Version A of the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, was created as part of his efforts to demonstrate that the English Church was historically independent from Rome, creating one of the world's most important collections of ancient manuscripts.
The eldest son of William Parker, he was born in Norwich, in St. Saviour's parish. His mother's maiden name was Alice Monins, and she may have been related by marriage to Thomas Cranmer. When William Parker died, in about 1516, his widow married John Baker. Matthew was sent in 1522 to Corpus Christi College, Cambridge,[1] where he is said to have been contemporary with William Cecil, but Cecil was only two years old at the time. Parker graduated BA in 1525, was ordained deacon in April and priest in June 1527, and was elected fellow of Corpus in the following September. He commenced MA in 1528, and was one of the Cambridge scholars whom Thomas Wolsey wished to transplant to his newly founded "Cardinal College" at Oxford.
Parker, like Cranmer, declined the invitation. He had come under the influence of the Cambridge reformers, and after Anne Boleyn's recognition as queen he was made her chaplain. Through her, he was appointed dean of the college of secular canons at Stoke-by-Clare in 1535. Hugh Latimer wrote to him in that year urging him not to fall short of the expectations which had been formed of his ability. In 1537 he was appointed chaplain to King Henry VIII. In 1538 he was threatened with prosecution, but the Bishop of Dover, however, reported to Thomas Cromwell that Parker "hath ever been of a good judgment and set forth the Word of God after a good manner. For this he suffers some grudge." He graduated DD in that year, and in 1541 was appointed to the second prebend in the reconstituted cathedral church of Ely. In 1544, on Henry VIII's recommendation, he was elected master of Corpus Christi College, and in 1545 vice-chancellor of the university. He got into some trouble with the chancellor, Stephen Gardiner, over a ribald play, Pammachius, performed by the students, which derided the old ecclesiastical system.
On the passing of the act of parliament in 1545 enabling the king to dissolve chantries and colleges, Parker was appointed one of the commissioners for Cambridge, and their report may have saved its colleges from destruction. Stoke, however, was dissolved in the following reign, and Parker received a generous pension. He took advantage of the new reign to marry in June, 1547, before clerical marriages had been legalized by parliament and convocation, Margaret, daughter of Robert Harlestone, a Norfolk squire. During Kett's Rebellion, he preached in the rebels' camp on Mousehold Hill, without much effect, and later encouraged his secretary, Alexander Neville, to write his history of the rising.
Parker's association with Protestantism advanced with the times, and he received higher promotion under John Dudley, 1st Duke of Northumberland than under the moderate Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset. At Cambridge, he was a friend of Martin Bucer and preached Bucer's funeral sermon in 1551. In 1552 he was promoted to the rich deanery of Lincoln, and in July 1553 he supped with Northumberland at Cambridge, when the duke marched north on his hopeless campaign against the accession of Mary Tudor. As a supporter of Northumberland and a married man, under the new regime Parker was deprived of his deanery, his mastership of Corpus Christi, and his other preferments. However, he survived Mary's reign without leaving the country – a fact that probably aggravated more ardent Protestants who went into exile and idealized their fellows who were martyred by Queen Mary. Parker respected authority, and when his time came he could consistently impose authority on others. He was not eager to assume this task, and made great efforts to avoid promotion to the archbishopric of Canterbury, which Elizabeth designed for him as soon as she had succeeded to the throne.
He was elected on 1 August 1559 but, given the turbulence and executions that had preceded Elizabeth's accession, it was difficult to find the requisite four bishops willing and qualified to consecrate Parker, and not until December 19 was that ceremony performed at Lambeth by William Barlow, formerly Bishop of Bath and Wells, John Scory, formerly Bishop of Chichester, Miles Coverdale, formerly Bishop of Exeter, and John Hodgkins, Bishop of Bedford. The allegation of an indecent consecration in the Nag's Head Fable seems first to have been made by the Jesuit, Christopher Holywood, in 1604, and has since been discredited. Parker's consecration was, however, legally valid only by the plentitude of the royal supremacy; the Edwardine Ordinal, which was used, had been repealed by Mary Tudor and not re-enacted by the parliament of 1559. The Roman Catholic Church asserted that the form of consecration used was insufficient to make a bishop, and therefore represented a break in the Apostolic Succession, but the Church of England has rejected this, arguing that the form of words used made no difference to the substance or validity of the act.
Elizabeth wanted a moderate man, so she chose Parker. There was also an emotional attachment. Parker had been the favourite chaplain of Elizabeth's mother, Anne Boleyn. Before Anne was arrested in 1536, she had entrusted Elizabeth's spiritual well-being to Parker. A few days after this, Anne had been executed following charges of adultery, incest and treason. Parker also possessed all the qualifications Elizabeth expected from an archbishop except celibacy. He mistrusted popular enthusiasm, and he wrote in horror of the idea that "the people" should be the reformers of the Church. He was not an inspiring leader, and no dogma, no prayer-book, not even a tract or a hymn is associated with his name. The 56 volumes published by the Parker Society include only one by its eponymous hero, and that is a volume of correspondence. He was a disciplinarian, a scholar, a modest and moderate man of genuine piety and irreproachable morals. His historical research was exemplified in his De antiquitate ecclesiae, and his editions of Asser, Matthew Paris, Thomas Walsingham, and the compiler known as Matthew of Westminster; his liturgical skill was shown in his version of the psalter and in the occasional prayers and thanksgivings which he was called upon to compose. He left a priceless collection of manuscripts, largely collected from former monastic libraries, to his college at Cambridge. The Parker Library at Corpus Christi bears his name and houses his collection.
Parker avoided involvement in secular politics and was never admitted to Elizabeth's privy council. Ecclesiastical politics gave him considerable trouble. Some of the evangelical reformers wanted liturgical changes and at least the option not to wear certain clerical vestments, if not their complete prohibition. Early presbyterians wanted no bishops, and the conservatives opposed all these changes, often preferring to move in the opposite direction toward the practices of the Henrician church. The queen herself begrudged episcopal privilege until she eventually recognised it as one of the chief bulwarks of the royal supremacy. To Parker's consternation, the queen refused to add her imprimatur to his attempts to secure conformity, though she insisted that he achieve this goal. Thus Parker was left to stem the rising tide of Puritan feeling with little support from parliament, convocation or the Crown. The bishops' Interpretations and Further Considerations, issued in 1560, tolerated a lower vestiarian standard than was prescribed by the rubric of 1559, but it fell short of the desires of the anti-vestiarian clergy like Coverdale (one of the bishops who had consecrated Parker) who made a public display of their nonconformity in London.
The Book of Advertisements, which Parker published in 1566, to check the anti-vestiarian faction, had to appear without specific royal sanction; and the Reformatio legum ecclesiasticarum, which John Foxe published with Parker's approval, received neither royal, parliamentary nor synodical authorization. Parliament even contested the claim of the bishops to determine matters of faith. "Surely," said Parker to Peter Wentworth, "you will refer yourselves wholly to us therein." "No, by the faith I bear to God," retorted Wentworth, "we will pass nothing before we understand what it is; for that were but to make you popes. Make you popes who list, for we will make you none." Disputes about vestments had expanded into a controversy over the whole field of Church government and authority, and Parker died on May 17, 1575, lamenting that Puritan ideas of "governance" would "in conclusion undo the queen and all others that depended upon her." By his personal conduct he had set an ideal example for Anglican priests, and it was not his fault that national authority failed to crush the individualistic tendencies of the Protestant Reformation.
