Been looking through the archives. What an emotional journey! Anyway, here is an image I processed several years ago and I for some reason didn’t feel it was up to the mark. Well today I do! Enjoy!
Old, photography, nostalgia, blar blar blar!
Over a foot and half of snow and bone chilling temps. 5* all day yesterday and I walked to the mail box and fed the birds...........that's it.
Southern Railway "Merchant Navy" Class No.35018 "British India Line" works hard to get last Sunday's return "The Waverley" Carlisle - York charter up the gradient and away from the former Cumwhinton station.
Just digging through the archives and came across this one. It was made at a hotel with artificial lighting, so the colour was interesting but felt unnatural, so I converted to monochrome and kind of tided it up a bit. I particularly like the subtleties of the mist and complexities of the detail. Anyway, I need to start shooting again, haven’t been out in anger for quite a long time! Bloody Covid!!!

This is how we were affected by the swell,the odd bit of water coming onboard and obviously our speed was right down.
FYI we are 60 metres wide and at the time our draft was 22.0 metres
Lower Saxony - Göhrde
The Göhrde is the largest contiguous mixed forest area in northern Germany. Here you can get to know a natural area that is unique in its own special way. The Göhrde state forest is an impressive woodland area and its core areas are covered with very old trees.
Also known for the Göhrde murders.
It used to be the hunting ground of the Dukes of Brunswick and Lüneberg and later, the Kings of Hanover and the German Emperor. At the time of the murders the forest stood close to West Germany's border with East Germany.
Also the E6 is on the route.
The E6 European long-distance hiking trail is part of the European hiking trail network and runs from Kilpisjärvi in north-western Finland to the Dardanelles in Turkey. The total length is 6030 kilometers.
Pileated Woodpecker digging into an old log for grubs. He carved some pretty decent holes very quick and was rewarded with some tasty bites.
Our friend here is sat on the wall of the excellent allotments in Bramham village encouraging us to dig for victory against this horrible virus. More homegrown food the less time we spend in the shops.
Stay safe and be alert my friends
Bramham is a village in the civil parish of Bramham cum Oglethorpe, West Yorkshire, England
Bramham is at the crossroads of the east-west Roman road from York through Tadcaster to Ilkley and the north-south Great North Road, now the A1 road, giving it a history that goes back to the Romans

This is from back in the day when there was plenty of activity down in the open cast pit at Fuxin. But the bucket shovels were searching for seams of coal that were already running out.
I detect there is a narrow gauge electric line at the top of the picture. I guess that’s the track running to the depot on the south side of the pit, but how did it fit in with the grand scheme of things.
The big electric loco was bringing the coal up to the rim for use in the local power station.

Just digging around in the past and came across this from a dusk shot in winter. I think I overlooked it a few years ago because I had (and still do to some regards) an aversion to manmade things and have attempted to showcase natural beauty in all that is nature. But, I like it, even if it’s full of buildings and unnatural light. Thing is, will it evoke the emotional reaction in time? Not sure but who knows? Anyway, if you have read this far you may agree or disagree with me… (o:

I was wondering what all these people were doing on a Sunday morning at the beach. Apparently not one of them was going into the water. I found out they were digging for shells in the sand. The water had just retreated leaving behind fresh shells. People like this man collected them in order to sell them on the local market.
