Wasn't expecting to see these in Tunbridge today!, and these vehicles were on Southern Trains Emergency Rail Replacement Service to and from Redhill, that is still running untill March 2020 due to the recent Track colapse near Edenbridge.
So yeah I stopped off in Tunbridge again, and I know what your thinking, "He spent most of last weekend critisising Tunbridge and its traffic problems, and stating that Tunbridge is possibly the worst place for photography and yet here he is back again the very next week!", however I try to go where variety is, and I will say that Tunbridge's traffic was actually not that bad this time particularly in the afternoon, and OK so the people are still idiots for constantly walking in front of you, but least the weather was better!

The park covered a greater area than I had expected prior to my visit during the last week of March 2019.
As urban areas like Dundonald continue to grow, green spaces such as Moat Park and the Wildlife Garden become increasingly more important habitats for plants and animals which might otherwise lose their home as houses and offices replace fields, hedges and woodlands.
Dundonald refers to a 12th-century Norman fort, or Dún, Dún Dónaill, that stood in the town. One of the largest in Ireland, the man-made hill that the fort stood on is still in existence. Although the mound is commonly referred to as 'the moat' this is, in fact, a corruption of the word 'motte' and refers to the fact that this defensive structure was built in the style of a motte and bailey. St. Elizabeth's Church is located beside the moat, with the Cleland Mausoleum in the adjacent graveyard.
Situated in the heart of Dundonald, the Moat Park offers idyllic walks around the historic Motte as well as provides a valuable link to shops in the village. Close by stands the Church of St Elizabeth which dates from 1306, providing an interesting piece of history passed the Doric style mausoleums during your walk.
The short grassland which occurs throughout most of the park provides valuable foraging habitat for birds such as Blackbirds, Starlings and Rook, all of which visit to feed on the earthworms and insect larvae present in the soil. It is also an important habitat for fungi such as The Deceiver.
The many trees in the park provide a range of important habitats for insects, bats and birds. In the winter months the tiny Goldcrest, our smallest native bird at only 9 centimetres in length and weighing the same as a 20-pence coin, can be seen and heard foraging among the trees together with Blue, Great and Long-tailed Tits and the very colourful Goldfinch.
During very cold winters the Waxwing – an unusual bird found in the forests of Northern Europe – is forced to migrate to milder climates to find sufficient food to survive. Many of the large Cotoneaster trees which occur throughout the park provide a bountiful supply of red berries for this bird during harsh winters.
Small streams flowing through the park carry water originating from the Craigantlet Hills to the north. They provide ideal habitat for the Common Blue Damselfly, which can be seen patrolling up and down the streams for prey during the summer months. Bramble (Blackberry) and Wild Raspberry can be found growing on the stream banks. Both provide a sugar-rich food source for many birds and insects in late summer.
It was a pleasant morning to fan in Derry, the weather being unusually decent for a December day. I had seen on heritageunits.com that the S&A was reported near Pitcairn sometime earlier in the morning, although I had no idea where if it was leading or even coming my way. I heard 36A calling signals east and thought, "Wouldn't that be something if the S&A was on that?"
Well, imagine my surprise when I see the train come around the corner in Derry and NS 1065 is on the point of the train. Lesson learned. Expect the unexpected in railfanning.
I took Bindi and Nylon with me, so expect a few more pictures.
(by the way, I *know* that the girls are highly overdressed, but I guess you couldn't expect nothing less from *my* girls).

55/365 A Blythe a Day Takes Boredom Away
This is one of my favorite places to photograph in Tallahassee (as you have probably already figured out). This is my first time making the visit in the summer, and my how things have changed! I literally had to crawl through a jungle of weeds which stood at least three feet over my head to get here. The last time I visited was in the spring when everything was just beginning to bloom. Now, in the summer, I'd say it has bloomed.
This is the same car earlier in spring.
Big ones. I scared some ducks away (by accident!) but it was truly beautiful to get the last of the day's light. Unedited. Can't bring myself to change this baby. :)
Uploaded for those of you who want to see photos WITHOUT me. Haha!
Wasn't expecting to see this in Dover tonight, and this Herne Bay based vehicle was on SouthEastern Trains Rail Replacement Services From Dover to Canterbury East and Faversham, and was one of 4 of their vehicles helping today.

No início, este parecia ser um banhista inusitado na "nossa" praia, mas rapidamente percebemos que a praia era dele e doutros da mesma espécie, porque apareciam todos os dias e tomavam banho e pescavam mesmo "nas nossas barbas" :) - e davam cá um espectáculo!...

At first, this seemed like an unusual beachgoer but it (and a few others of the same species) quickly became a regular feature at the beach - and they were quite a delight to watch and photograph!

A surprising new fleet addition at Ayr is this ex Dumfries V reg MAN/ALX300. It is expected that it is primarily for school work.
Stolen motto for Chicago from an infamous vidja-tape. This held true today as a sightseeing trip for other purposes just happened to have us stumble upon this gem headed for Glenn Yard.
No doubt the railroad with the most character within Chicago city limits - the Illinois Central never ever fails to entertain.
Created by Mallorcan artist Miquel Barceló. It took five years to complete, and was finished in 2006. It’s made from ceramic.
It represents the miracle of the multiplication of the bread and fishes according to the Gospel of Saint John.
Barceló produced the ceramic mural in Vietri sul Mare (Naples) in collaboration with the ceramist, Vincenzo Santoriello.
Walked past this cool couple hanging out in front of their house every night we headed out for dinner.
It's a bit noisy since it's heavily cropped – I shot from the hip on a whim while passing without stopping and composing (not really advisable), but I really like the mood and their faces.

Available soon from "The Factory Project" Group Show, West London Art Factory from 13th October.
If you have ever been to London, you will expect to see at least 10 Phantoms driving around. They are a regular sighting, as regular as the G-Wiz. These two Phantoms were parked at the Dorchester, both from Saudi Arabia. I especially like the blue wrapped one, which really does look quite tasteful, however the colour is that, just a wrap. Originally white, and if it was kept white, then this would make for a much more interesting picture i would believe. The orange reflection on the side of the white Phantom is just some Lambo thing'ma'bob.

What did you expect, another underwater photo?
But seriously, this is important. So we picked the most expensive of European lemonades and did the big taste test. Judges were me, my wife, 6 year old and 11 year old kids. Sadly, no clear winner. All were so good, just different. Oh, and when my wife got wind of what we were doing, she pulled the large bottle out of the competition since she needs it for constant evening cocktails.
How the photo was done: I told my son to go and put on a proper shirt. He didn't even know he owned one. Next, camera was set on manual and photos were taken at different speed/f stop combinations with flash. To add a bit of drama and zwoosh (pull) the viewer into the Great Challenge, I rotated the zoom barrel on the lens during a slow exposure. The effect adds a bit more zing to an otherwise posed and static shot.
Just wandering around the Telliskivi Creative City in Tallinn, Estonia. I was hunting for murals, street art and graffiti but then discovered this.
I bet you didn't expect this to be my first "official" picture of my holidays in Iceland but it was the fourth picture I took. And as I decided to do the chronological thing again it has to be the first :o)
"Stockfish is unsalted fish, especially cod, dried by cold air and wind on wooden racks on the foreshore, called "hjell". The drying of food is the world's oldest known preservation method, and dried fish has a storage life of several years. The method is cheap and effective in suitable climates; the work can be done by the fisherman and family, and the resulting product is easily transported to market.
[...]
Preserved cod fed Iceland for centuries, to the extent where it has been described as a local equivalent of bread. (Wikipedia)

Ja, ich weiß, man erwartet als erstes Bild eines Islandsurlaubs nicht zwingend toten Fisch, aber das hier ist das tatsächlich das vierte Foto, das ich gemacht habe. Und ich wollte die Bilder ja wieder chronologisch zeigen. Darum nun Trockenfisch :o)
"Stockfisch diente in früheren Zeiten der massenhaften Versorgung von Schiffsmannschaften und Soldatenheeren. Handel und Versorgung mit so konservierten Fischen beeinflussten in erheblichem Maß die Entdeckungen und die Weltpolitik der westlichen Welt.
Als die Eroberung Amerikas die Versorgung der Schiffsbesatzungen mit unverderblichen Lebensmitteln erforderlich machte, besann man sich auf die lange bekannte Tradition der Konservierung mit Salz. Luftgetrocknetes gesalzenes Fleisch ist in Form von Parma- oder Serrano-Schinken bis heute sehr beliebt. Neben Sauerkraut, das die Ausbreitung von Skorbut aufgrund von Vitaminmangel eindämmen sollte, war Stockfisch eines der am meisten verbreiteten Lebensmittel der damaligen Zeit." (Wikipedia)

Your Friendly Neighborhood Task Force
By Lois Lane.
When I woke up yesterday morning, with the birds chirping delightedly and the sun beaming down upon our bustling, thriving city, I expected a number of things to happen in roughly the same order they do every day. I would wake up, have breakfast with my darling Husband and son, grab my double-tall espresso at the CC Jitters down the street from The Daily Planet, and show up three minutes late, which for me, is right on time. What I did not expect yesterday, and what I’m sure many of you, dear readers, did not expect while shopping and working and dining downtown, was that a forty-foot dinosaur, a Tyrannosaurs Rex to be precise, would come barreling down main street, swatting cars with its tail and regrettably, devouring some of the unluckier passer-by. However, this colossal creature did not get far, it was soon felled, not by Superman as one in this fair city would expect, but by a whole-new group of government do-gooders. This crack team of all-American GI’s tranquilized and secured the beast in record time, and will soon return it to it’s island home.
After this chaotic event, I was able to speak with one of these courageous heroes, a woman who introduced herself by the name of Doctor Karin Grace. Doctor Grace, a lithe, cheerful woman, was all too happy to have a chat with me while her compatriots loaded the behemoth into a truck. She introduced them to me as they worked. There was Doctor Hugh Evans, team pretty boy with what I’m told is a very sizable brain, and an adrenaline-junkie attitude to match. Doctor Jess Bright; a physicist and chess-player by nature, Jess is never without a plan in mind. And finally, the leader of this little band, Colonel Richard Flag. Weapons master and a known military man whose honorable deeds run the length of my arm.
“It’s really very simple,” Doctor Grace told me when I asked how they managed to subdue this forty-foot fiend, “it takes fifteen milligrams of Etorphine to knock out an elephant, and your average adult male elephant weighs seven tons. So, Jess figured size that up accordingly to the weight of a T. Rex, and boom, you’ve bagged your prize!” When I asked how much Jess estimated how much sais T. Rex weighed, Doctor Grace laughed and replied, “a healthy number of elephants, Lois!”
Doctor Grace regrettably had to end our little chat there, but before her and her brigade ran off to take Rexy home, I managed to ask what the public should call this squad of dinosaur-wranglers. Doctor Karin Grace was happy to suggest that readers, “Just call them
TASK FORCE X.”

Expect many photos after our photoshoot tomorrow :D It was absolutely finally meeting her for real, and despite the fact I managed to get us lost in my own city it was an adventure and I had a lovely day. She's wonderful!

NS manifest train 331 passes Wyandotte, Mi with 5 engines, which was really unexpected as 331 normally runs with 1-2 engines.
