"O Root of Jesse, who stand as a sign for the peoples (Isaiah 11:10),
the kings of the earth are silent before you (Isaiah 52:15) and the nations invoke you:
come to free us, do not delay (Habakkuk 2:3). "
- the Magnificat antiphon for 19 December
Detail of the east window of Downside Abbey church by Sir Ninian Comper. From the patriarch Jesse springs the flower, the Virgin Mary, who bore Jesus Christ. Old Testament prophets and New Testament saints point to Christ, for from Him salvation has shone upon us.

Rte "215A Kingston - Downside Common". This LT route was re-numbered to the 215 30/12/67 until this section was withdrawn 19/7/69 between Cobham & Downside.
One of the Caesar Twins entertaining the crowd at Fringe Sunday 2008. He was doing a series of backflips and somersaults when I took this...basically just a case of hold the shutter down and hope for the best. :-)
The downside of your kid being the catalyst for your interest in photography is that you're not a very good photographer when your kid is born. Which means that we have fairly crap photos of Baxter's first year, and really crap photos of the first few months. This makes me so, so sad now. I wish I could go back in time and kick myself in the crotch.
Anyway. Here's Bax, less than 24 hours old. By far the best photo we have of him as a baby, and taken by BK to boot.
The remains of a painted street name on the frontage of the former Euston Downside carriage depot, Camden. I think there may be vestiges of two different painted signs here. The building will shortly be demolished to allow the Euston approaches to be widened for HS2. 23rd November 2017.
Rte "215A" lost its route suffix on 30/12/67 and ran as an extension of the "215" Cobham service every hour to Downside excluding Sundays, this section of the route was completely w/d on the 19/7/69.
RF429 departs Downside Common as a "215" on a short working to Esher although the blind is incorrectly showing via Dittons.

Downside up.
Shot hand-held with the Sony NEX7 and the SEL18105G. Cropped and inverted in ACR.
The evening found the lake water still and glassy; distant seasonal forest fires had left the sky thick and white. The decision to invert the image was made later in post -- it is surprising to me that inverted looks 'correct' but the subtle differences are revealed when the image is viewed 'properly' ...
I've owned the PZ18105 for some time and only used it as a video lens. Recent outings with the lens mounted on a stills body confirm it is overlarge to use as a replacement for the kit lens, and any image advantages (I have none to report) are outweighed by the handling disadvantages.

Here comes my new picture for my weekly theme 'Unusual Point Of View' for my 365 group.
Sometimes an unusual pov needs an unusual place, so i decided to climb up the doorframe. Nothing better to do this day =)

RF354 (MLL991) works a 215A towards Downside in Kingston at Amersham & District's amazing RF40 Running Day based in Weybridge, Kingston and Staines on Sunday 24th March 2019.
One of the undoubted downsides to perpetuating the operation of obsolete vehicle types it the steady demand for sacrificial lambs to yield parts to the more fortunate. Having had this coach mentioned in recent comments, it's something of a coincidence that I was lucky to find a negative of it in the same rummage.
DBT 579L, a Plaxton Panorama Elite 'Mediumweight' AEC Reliance had been new to Boddy's of Bridlington, but finished it's days with Robertons from the Taunton area. It's seen here as acquired by Wacton Coach Sales of Bromyard hooked up to one of their Bedford TMs. Next it would be sold on to us at Knotty to become another organ donor though it's 505 engine was already partially stripped.
Just having some fun as we drove along. I held my camera upside down and clicked away. I liked it upside down so I didn't flip it.
"O lamp of the world and gleaming pearl, by announcing Christ's resurrection you merited to become the apostle to the Apostles: O Mary Magdalene, be always our loving advocate with the God who chose you" - Magnificat antiphon from the Dominican propers.
22 July is the feast of St Mary Magdalene who is a patroness of the Dominican order.

I love these little guys - good thing since I'm not getting too many photos of anything else the last few days. Mostly my own fault, but I chose to blame others as well.
