What a difference a day makes! Yesterday it was overcast and raining - today it's a fine but 'Crisp Autumnal' start!
It's 10.00am on Sunday 9th October 2016 - the final day of the Great Central Railway's 2016 Autumn Gala. Now we see 'Resplendent' SR 1917 Urie Designed 5P 4-6-0 'King Arthur Class' 777 Sir Lamiel 'Glisten', in the mid morning sun, when passing Rothley Brook with the 10.15am service for Leicester North.
On April Fools day, it was my 10-year anniversary with my man. So we got married and kept the same amazing anniversary.
Happy 'Roid Week!

Maybe I'm a monster
Maybe all the things they said were right
Maybe you should for your life
What do you see in the dark?
Do you even know where you are?
Are you awake or this is a dream?
Not everything is as it seems
Can you sense it, don't care if you don't
Sometimes you don't know the difference
Black of the night, just the disguise
Imagination running wild
Maybe all the things they said were right
Maybe you should for your life
Maybe I'm a monster ...
The title here was suggested to me by the difference and the opposite nature of the freshness of the vegetation in my landlord's flower and rock garden, and the presence of the very old and very grey whitetail buck skull, a great distance away from life, which has been lying among the vegetation there for the five years that I have been renting part of this house, and probably a lot longer than that. The new and the old. The living and the deerly departed.
Tried the new Lightroom feature 'Enhance Details' on this image. I can't tell much of a difference except the raw file went from 69MB to 73MB.
The peregrine's breeding range includes land regions from the Arctic tundra to the tropics. It can be found nearly everywhere on Earth, except extreme polar regions, very high mountains, and most tropical rainforests; the only major ice-free landmass from which it is entirely absent is New Zealand. This makes it the world's most widespread raptor, and one of the most widely found bird species. In fact, the only land-based bird species found over a larger geographic area is not always naturally occurring, but one widely introduced by humans, the rock pigeon, which in turn now supports many peregrine populations as a prey species. The peregrine is a highly successful example of urban wildlife in much of its range, taking advantage of tall buildings as nest sites and an abundance of prey such as pigeons and ducks. Both the English and scientific names of this species mean "wandering falcon," referring to the migratory habits of many northern populations. Experts recognize 17 to 19 subspecies, which vary in appearance and range; disagreement exists over whether the distinctive Barbary falcon is represented by two subspecies of Falco peregrinus, or is a separate species, F. pelegrinoides. The two species' divergence is relatively recent, during the time of the last ice age, therefore the genetic differential between them (and also the difference in their appearance) is relatively tiny. They are only about 0.6–0.8% genetically differentiated.
While its diet consists almost exclusively of medium-sized birds, the peregrine will occasionally hunt small mammals, small reptiles, or even insects. Reaching sexual maturity at one year, it mates for life and nests in a scrape, normally on cliff edges or, in recent times, on tall human-made structures. The peregrine falcon became an endangered species in many areas because of the widespread use of certain pesticides, especially DDT. Since the ban on DDT from the early 1970s, populations have recovered, supported by large-scale protection of nesting places and releases to the wild.
The peregrine falcon is a well respected falconry bird due to its strong hunting ability, high trainability, versatility, and – in recent years – availability via captive breeding. It is effective on most game bird species, from small to large.
There really isn't much difference in the natural color of the walls in this canyon. The apparent difference springs from the light that shines on it. The bluish rock on the left is in shade, as is the canyon wall directly opposite it. Although the section in the center and right of this shot are under an overhang, the opposite wall catches the afternoon sunlight and reflects it, lighting it up a strong orange color.
What a difference a day makes. This is what "Isles of the mist" location on Loch Garry, shown in the last four scenes, looked like the following day, with no direct sun, no mist, though still reflecting.. As flat as a pancake.
(Actually, here on digital, after a tweak to contrast in "curves", it looks a LOT better than the original slide ever did!)
However, the photo isn't the only thing that's feeling "flat". In fact I'm feeling rather sick at the moment, like, "This would be a good time to give up photography altogether"!
What happened? Well, this evening, I "Upgraded" my catalog backup in Lr Classic 9. (It's been telling me to do it for a while.) There's a big warning with it , "This operation Cannot be undone!" Also, it tells you to ensure you have made a recent backup.. Well I back up 3-4 times a week so, no problem there. Right? WRONG!
I never actually opened those backup folders to see what was in them, I just assumed when I clicked on "Back up now" it was backing up everything.. Now I find that from the time I went "Adobe subscription Lr", nothing since that date has backed up. Updating the backup has deleted those 18 months of work! That must be close to 2,000 hours worth!
I know everything more recent really has gone, because it now accepts imports from anything later, which it wouldn't do if they were still in the catalogue.
(I'm keeping things in perspective though, especially at this time with C-19, when FAR more serious losses are happening for many people.)
Thank goodness the original pictures/files are safe, but all my grading and processing from that date, appears to have completely gone.

My second in the series of last nights sunset, to show what a difference 5 minutes can make! The reds took over the sky and the waves started coming in a bit faster, all beginning to change the scene. I love seascape photography for many reasons, mainly as you can make of it what you will using your creativity combined with the conditions nature gives you.
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.
Taken with Nikon D200
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 ....
Mixed series of four inc. video. Grey again, so returned to the local park. What a difference, very few ducks and the little birds were hiding. A nice dogwalker put me on to this buzzard as she passed. Had to follow it through the wood until I got two clear shots of it.
Different Day...Different Flower...Different Lens set up...Different Bee?

Incidentally, if you participate in quite a few award groups, and you haven't already found this Photo Awards Counter you might take a look. It is very useful.
Taken with the Nikon Z 8 w/ Nikkor Z 600mm f/6.3 VR S w/ Z TC-1.4X teleconverter. As you can see it's a fabulous lens, and so light weight I miss it already. However I actually don't think it's that much better than my NIKKOR Z 180-600mm f/5.6-6.3 VR w/ Z TC-1.4X teleconverter.
The weight factor is a big deal at just over 3 lbs. But even at only 3 lbs. it's still to heavy for an 81 year old fellow that has been beating the stuffings out of myself my whole life.
With, count em' 2 torn rotator cuffs. And if I have to go through that much pain to left my camera and lens, it's hardly anything compared to the pain I've been going through thinking about the pain and suffering I have to endure parting with nearly 5 grand, now that's real pain. If had unlimited funds, I'd keep it in a heart beat.
----------------------------- JESUS ✝️ SAVES-------------------------------
SALVATION THROUGH FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST - ALONE!
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men by which we must be saved."
❤️❤️ IT'S ALL JESUS AND NONE OF OURSELVES! ❤️❤️
16 I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the SALVATION of everyone WHO BELIEVES: first for the Jew, then for the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel a RIGHTEOUSNESS FROM GOD IS REVEALED, a righteousness that is by FAITH FROM FIRST TO LAST, just as it is written: "THE RIGHTEOUS WILL LIVE BY FAITH." (Romans 1:16-17)
16 KNOW that a man is NOT justified by observing the law, but by FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST. So we, too, have put our faith in Christ Jesus that we may be JUSTIFIED BY FAITH in CHRIST and NOT by observing the law, BECAUSE BY OBSERVING THE LAW NO ONE WILL BE JUSTIFIED. (Galatians 2:16)
1. Now, brothers, I want to remind you of the gospel I preached to you, which you received and on which you have taken your stand. 2. BY THIS GOSPEL YOU ARE SAVED, if you hold firmly to the word I preached to you. Otherwise, you have believed in vain.
3. For what I received I passed on to you as of first importance: that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, 4. that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, 5. and that he appeared to Peter, and then to the Twelve. 6. After that, he appeared to more than five hundred of the brothers at the same time, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. 7. Then he appeared to James, then to all the apostles, 8. and last of all he appeared to me also, as to one abnormally born.
9. For I am the least of the apostles and do not even deserve to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God. 10. But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God that was with me. 11. Whether, then, it was I or they, this is what we preach, and this is what you believed. (1 Corinthians 15:1-11)
7. Therefore Jesus said again, "I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. 8. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. 9. I am the gate; whoever enters through me WILL BE SAVED. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10. The thief comes only to STEAL and KILL and DESTROY; I have come that they may have LIFE, and have it to the FULL. (John 10:7-10)
1 Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. 2 For I can testify about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. 3 Since they did not know the righteousness that comes from God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God's righteousness. 4 Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes.
5 Moses describes in this way the righteousness that is by the law: "The man who does these things will live by them." 6 But the righteousness that is by faith says: "Do not say in your heart, 'Who will ascend into heaven?'" (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 "or 'Who will descend into the deep?'" (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8 But what does it say? "The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart," that is, the word of faith we are proclaiming: 9 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. 11 As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame." 12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile--the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, 13 for, "Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved." (Romans 10:1-13)
Jesus came to bring spiritual LIFE to the spiritually dead and set the captives FREE! FREE from RELIGION, ERROR and outright LIES, so WE might serve THE LIVING GOD! In SPIRIT and in TRUTH!
So you'll KNOW, and not think you're to bad for God to love. The Christian LIFE isn't about how good WE are, because NONE of us are! It's about how GOOD JESUS IS! Because JESUS LOVES US, so much he died in our place and took the punishment for all of our sins on himself. The wages of sin is DEATH, and Jesus took the death WE so richly deserved for us and died in our place. The good news is, there's no more punishment for sin left. WE, you and I were all born forgive as a result of the crucifixion of God himself on the cross that took away the sins of the whole world. All we have to do is believe it, and put your Faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ. That my friends is REAL UNCONDITIONAL LOVE! YOU ARE LOVED. ❤️ ✝️ ❤️

What a difference getting a few shots in the sunshine makes.
The 2 birds on the left seemed to be bowing to their leader unless it;s a mating thing. They were very loud

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.

Thank you very much to all of you my dear Flickr friends for your so kind comments!
Ok Woodsman! Your ego isn’t too humiliated?
I just want to put your ego knockout! :)))
Woodsman, do you realize how many sexual acts I see in spring and summer around my stream? :)))
Yesterday I asked to you these questions: do you see that your desires are the expression of your insatisfaction about your past, your insufficiensies? and do you think it’s the samething with the sexual desires?
You answered you were not sure!
Woodsman, you certainly know that your sexuality is the source of all the energy? Right?
Do you realize that in the life of all the people the sexual acts with their lover are the closer experience to the unity…. the closer experience to your return to the unity?
But also, do you realize too that your sexual attirance for the women is always caused by your separation of the unity?
Do you see better now that your total satisfaction is impossible as much as you’re separated of your lover… of the others…. of the light… of the nature?
Ok Woodsman, that’s all for today! Tomorrow my questions/story will be on the difference between you and me!
:)))… to be continued tomorrow…!
My wild river reflection!

The stare I got was so intense and almost felt hypnotic..
The red squirrel has been a native in the UK for several thousand years, whereas the first greys were brought here from North America in 1876. Over the years more were introduced, notably by the Duke of Bedford to the park at Woburn Abbey where they thrived.
Undoubtedly, the grey squirrel has adapted well to our countryside and towns; some would say at the expense of the red squirrel, which is only partly true. Certainly direct conflict between the two species seems to be unheard of.
It is not so much a case of the grey squirrel driving out the red, but more a case of being better equipped and more adaptable. A major factor is the ability to survive tough winters due to the fact that greys generally carry more body fat. Although the size difference between the two types of squirrel is not dramatic, a full-grown grey can weigh almost twice as much as a red. Grey squirrels are also more adventurous and happier foraging on the ground, whereas red squirrels spend most of their lives high up in conifer trees, and their diet is less varied, although both species are generally vegetarian.
Grey squirrels are still often regarded as vermin, compared to their popular cousins though. In the 1920s and 1930s, grey squirrels were beginning to cause significant damage to commercial forestry; in particular to beech trees. A law was passed in 1938 banning further importation of these creatures, and in following years various methods were tried without success to control grey squirrels. Many people still call them ‘tree rats’, but they are here to stay and give much pleasure, especially in urban parks and gardens where they become
Huge colonies of the red squirrel population were wiped out between 1900-1920 by the parapox virus, which is similar to myxomatosis in rabbits. Not only that, but red squirrels were hunted right up until 1927. In fact there was even a Highland Squirrel Club dedicated to this ‘sport’! Hunting, disease and changes in the management of forestry all contributed to the population being drastically reduced, from which it has never recovered. Man should accept the blame for his part in their demise.
Grey squirrels are playful, curious and agile animals, and living proof that man can’t always assert his will on nature with poison and guns. Farmers and foresters have learned to live with the grey squirrels and are beginning to manage forests to encourage red squirrels, particularly in the north-west of England.
