A very hot day in July on a caerwent MOD site dismantling a train. Not every girls dream weekend, but my finacee is into electric train restoration and I try to help out where I can, still the only cool place that day was under the digger

The Oldest New Zealander..
From www.kcc.org.nz/animals/tuatara.asp :
Tuatara is a Maori word meaning "peaks on the back".
The tuatara is famous because it is a very ancient – it is the only survivor of a large group of reptiles that roamed the earth at the same time as dinosaurs. It hasn't changed its form much in over 225 million years! The relatives of tuatara died out about 60 million years ago which is why the tuatara is sometimes called a ‘living fossil’ - cool.
Tuatara are NOT lizards…
* The arrangement of their teeth is very special. The single row of teeth in the lower jaw fits between two rows of teeth in the upper jaw. This helps tuatara tear apart hard insects such as weta, and chew the heads off small seabirds – yuck!
* Tuatara mate differently from lizards. The male tuatara does not have a penis; he mounts the female and passes sperm straight from his cloaca to hers (the cloaca is the hole that sperm enters the female through).
* They have a gland beneath the skin on the head, which contains a simple ‘third eye’.
* Lizards have visible ear openings but tuatara do not.
But like lizards, if they lose their tails they are able to regrow them
There's a new pipe going in on 75'th Street between Lafayette and Longmont, Colorado. This may be the first time they didn't pave the road and then put a pipe under it, instead of the opposite order!
I have no idea what this truck is - but it has very big wheels. They were all lined up on the quarry road ready for work on monday.
This digger sits in my friends boatyard, been wanting to shoot it for as long as i could remember, here the best i got. Thank you to Mr Chris Bethell for teaching me how to edit!
seen on a local building site - where's her hard hat and hi-viz? Mind you none of the blokes were wearing them either - mind you she could do things with that digger you couldn't do in a car
Awww, digger dog!
I shot this in RAW+JPG mode because I recently learned that a JPG picture has 265 brightness levels at 8 bits, meanwhile a RAW image at 16 bits has over 65,000 brightness values which makes for much better post processing. Also RAW is lossless and by converting it to jpg you can edit the in camera settings again and again, effectively retaking the shot.
The diggers are still fixing the damage to the sea defences after the winter storms.Chesil Cove, Portland 09.09.2014
Another digger design - pure coincidence and not done specifically for my sister this time.
I'm trying to get back into doing stencils with only one layer. Multi-layered designs can be more advanced, sure, but I think the excersize of forcing something to be cut from a single sheet and the final design coming from one colour is in itself a good thing - it forces you to think harder and work your way around the issues in a creative manner.
Worth having a look at the detail of this one - another thing about doing a single layer of ink is that the edges are crisper.

Another for my 100x project of square cropped, central horizon and focal point, along the beach.
It was a lovely bright and golden sunset on this early evening. I'm not sure what they are doing exactly, but looks like they could be putting in a new groyne....it's right by a storm drain outlet.
Spotted on a deralict digger at Cloud Farm near Malmsmead, Devon, UK.
