The Marschbahn has long been a bastion of classic German railroading. Many trains, though far fewer than before, are still powered by 218s and much of the further extents of the line are still controlled by semaphore signals. Here IC 2375, the second IC of the day arrives at Niebuell station.
Early morning, backlit to the extent that the term ‘lit’ can be true under overcast skies - but a stunning five minutes with a beautiful bird.

I'm somebody I used to be. Part of the mystic. Unfocused to some extent. Random to mystery. Late for anything you want to do. Or maybe not. Once. Sometimes s/m-ad. Standing on a stage mostly. Wrapped in a number of bizarre layers. Always involved and forever alone. Alive at login (I try not to miss it. I swear). I had a dream. Phenomenal. Then I woke up. Terrible. Then I see black. Yeah. Abra Cadaver. Unconsciously and endlessly here. Or maybe not quite so. I can't see you. If I see you, I'll never leave you. Maybe I'll talk to you. Or maybe not. I dunno anymore. But I have a lot of wishes. No, impossible. I sometimes act like a Demo. Other times I have a Lucky Strike. No, not the cigarettes, I'm thinking. But sometimes thoughts grow into pain. And it hurts. Unfailingly. A bit obscene. When I feel like it. Or rigorously shy. I throw words at the world to make it stop. I have an interest. Microscopic. And emotions. And a syndrome. But I don't have skin unless you touch me.

In summer, both sexes are a smart gray with flashes of white in the wings and yellow on the face, sides, and rump. Males are very strikingly shaded; females are duller and may show some brown. Winter birds are paler brown, with bright yellow rump and usually some yellow on the sides.
Behavior
Yellow-rumped Warblers typically forage in the outer tree canopies at middle heights. They're active, and you'll often see them sally out to catch insects in midair, sometimes on long flights. In winter they spend lots of time eating berries from shrubs, and they often travel in large flocks.
Habitat
In summer, Yellow-rumped Warblers are birds of open coniferous forests and edges, and to a lesser extent deciduous forests. In fall and winter they move to open woods and shrubby habitats, including coastal vegetation, parks, and residential areas.

The church had in the Middle Ages a special responsibility for the poor but also individuals were required to remember the poor. It was a good deed to help, and good deeds showed that repented their sins and wanted to improve. Poverty was not regarded as a disgrace, it was an accident that, like so much else depended on God. After death, had the rich more to answer for than the poor because the wealth provided more opportunities to do good and then did not take this opportunity to atone got this after death. The poor man did not have so many opportunities to help others and therefore less responsibility. With the 1500s Reformation changed the medieval mindset, and wealth began to be considered as a sign of God's grace. Poverty was seen then as a personal failure, but it was even a few centuries before it was seen as a social problem.
The oldest institutions for poor relief, except those that were adjacent to monasteries and places of pilgrimage, was the hospital, which was a combination of sickness and poor relief facility. They were funded during the Middle Ages by donations.
Under Regulation 1642 would each parish establish a poorhouse, but first in the 1700s began houses were set up in some extent.
In Södermanland is Nybble old poorhouse. It is an unremarkable plastered building with a turf roof, the building was constructed in 1742, after the then owner of the goods Julita, donated 6,000 dollars to poor relief.
The small cottage has undergone several periods of decline, but in 1940 took Nordiska Museet over ownership and restored the house to its previous appearance.
As part of poor relief story is the old cottage important and together with, the turn of the century built, old folks tell about the welfare of Society. The building represents the physical memory carriers that make this story clear today.

This shows the extent of the flood waters that pass through this field and hence the footbridge used to access the church.
Have been trying out processing in Luminar 4 and have found it very impressive.
Taking a bit of getting to know ones way around.
My original plan was for a big setup today. kenko extention tubes + 2x extender + canon 100mm macro + reversed 50mm1.4 pointed at a pepper corn to get an uber close up.
Failed miserably, but as I was dismantling my setup (still with canon 100m and extention tubes on) caught my girlfriends needle and thread on the side of the sofa.
I think it goes without saying this is pretty small :P
My focus was a little off, but I was hand held.
Karl Barth once said that Christian doctrine is truthful only to the extent that it ‘points beyond itself and summons us to hear not itself, but [Christ].’ 17 The Christian tradition, in Williams’ view, is the extension through time of that act of self-dispossessing witness. Tradition is a theological reality. It is not meant to answer all our questions; its aim is to point beyond itself, to formalize its own unfinishedness, to hold open a space for new encounters with what Flannery O’ Connor called God’s ‘dark and disruptive’ grace. 18 Tradition keeps the church in contact with its own traumatic origins: the dark grace of an empty tomb.

at last a clear moonless night - the first in about a month - the milky way rises above the ridge line - the sky above on the left glows bright yellow from the light pollution coming from the city of Brisbane - the rest of the sky contains red and to a lesser extent green airglow.
This was created with one row of eight images taken in portrait and merged in Lightroom 6.
* I acquired a new lens a couple of weeks ago but due to constant rain this was its first outing . The lens is the Nikon Z 28-400mm its fairly light and much easier to hold than the Nikon 200-500 that I have struggled to use while my shoulder is painful . Its a full frame lens so on my camera it is effectively a 42-600mm so it has a pretty good range
Anyway its first outing was to photograph Marble White butterflies. I deliberately shot butterflies that were some distance away to test out the lens. I must say I was pleased with the results. This was taken using the fullest extent of the lens and the camera was hand held, its a pretty big crop too .
A question can you call a shot using a telephoto lens a macro.

Cape Of Good Hope
i didn't get a chance to photograph the moth.
Eutricha capensis, the Cape lappet moth, is a species of moth in the family Lasiocampidae primarily found in South Africa. There is little agreement regarding the extent of the Cape lappet moth's range in southern Africa.
During the larval stage, cape lappets feed on a wide variety of African plants. The caterpillars are brightly coloured and conspicuously hairy, while the bulky adult moths are mostly brown and much less striking in appearance.
The adults are large and stocky, with an average wingspan of about 70 mm (2.8 in). Both hind wings and fore wings are reddish brown. The fore wings are flecked with yellow and bear three wavy white stripes. Females are typically paler in colour and larger than males. Adult moths lack developed mouthparts and therefore do not feed.
The larvae are distinctly hairy with rows of orange tufts of long hair along the sides of the body. Arranged at the head are 3 large coppery tufts and 2 smaller purple tufts. Along the dorsal side of the caterpillars is a row of black triangles flanked either side by white.
Gregarious as larvae, the caterpillars clump together in numbers. For E. capensis at least, aggregating behavior appears to be of no benefit to the caterpillars in terms of either water or energy conservation. The emergence of the adults occurs in early summer. When disturbed, adults are non-aggressive. Wikipedia
The plateau of central Tasmania is dominated by the great extent of dolerite lava flows that have then been exposed, and sculpted by glacial ice sheet that moved south to north leaving erratics and moraine on the north coast and in Bass Strait. The cliffs and summit of Mt Pelion West reveal the dolerite, which on the summit is a field of large irregular boulders which makes a traverse very difficult. The geology of Tasmania is complex, with the world's biggest exposure of dolerite, a mafic subvolcanic rock similar to basalt .
Dolerite:
A major intrusion of dolerite occurred in the Jurassic. This was a widespread phenomena extending over one third of Tasmania, and possibly more in the past. This intrusion also affected Antarctica, Argentina and South Africa at c180 million years ago. Three to five million cubic kilometers of magma were intruded overall, being the planet's fourth largest known magma intrusion.
Tasmania has the largest exposure of dolerite in the world of 30000 km2 and a volume of 15000 km3. In Tasmania the rock is characteristic of many mountains with its columnar joining appearing in cliffed escarpments. The composition is 40% plagioclase, 20% clinopyroxene, 20% quartz, 5% ilmenite and small percentages of potassium feldspar and amphibole.
Most of the intrusions were in the form of sills up to 500 m thick. But there are also stepped sills, inclined sheets, cones and some dykes. On the Central Plateau mesa and peaks appear as remnants in places, and in other places the dolerite remains, extensively.
Glaciation:
While there has been glaciation of Tasmania for eons (having been connected to Antarctica), in the Permian for example, the present landscape displays aretes, cirques, extensive glaciated surfaces, glacial valleys, moraines and a diversity of lakes attributed to glacial sculpting. Late Pleistocene glaciation occurred in the Snowy Mountains as well as in the Tasmanian highlands. Glaciers were extensive in Tasmania where ice caps formed on the Central Plateau and West Coast Ranges, and systems of valley and cirque glaciers formed on surrounding mountains.
Many thanks to everyone who chooses to leave a comment or

The verditer flycatcher is an Old World flycatcher widespread in Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent, especially in the Lower Himalaya.
Scientific name: Eumyias thalassinus,
This species has an extremely large range, and hence does not approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the range size criterion (Extent of Occurrence 30% decline over ten years or three generations). The population size has not been quantified, but it is not believed to approach the thresholds for Vulnerable under the population size criterion (10% in ten years or three generations, or with a specified population structure). For these reasons the species is evaluated as Least Concern.
“I knew that if I allowed fear to overtake me,
my journey was doomed.
Fear, to a great extent,
is born of a story we tell ourselves,
and so I chose to tell myself a different story
from the one women are told.
I decided I was safe.
I was strong.
I was brave.
Nothing could vanquish me.”

Every “fact” has to be shaped into language and communicated (with paintings or films representing peripheral language phenomena). But to the extent that a “fact” becomes language it has already entered into a very particular horizon of understanding, into the broad field of preunderstanding. Interpretation has already begun one stage earlier. It starts with the reception of external sense impressions in our brain. Already, to a scarcely imaginable degree, there has been a process of selection, division, sorting, organizing, cataloging—and all this with the aid of models of experience that our brain has been constantly accumulating since we were embryos.

Today I made a few more attempts to take better photos. I went for a white outfit again because I just like it. I think I succeeded to some extent^^
A couple of close up shots of ferns that had fallen into the stream, luckily in an almost still pool. By the second the early morning sun was hitting the trees above - showing the extent to which the light can change over a few minutes. Maybe one or two to come.
For anyone familiar with Theodore Wirth Park, two railroad quietly coexist with the park's expanse on the western edge of Minneapolis and eastern extent of Golden Valley. Every once and a while a short local on the Union Pacific works the western suburbs while the Monticello Local travels through heading to Osseo and Albertville.
I scoped out this spot years ago and put it in my "Some Day..." list of hopeful photo locations. When I saw the Monti had a route from Northtown Yard to Lyndale Junction, I had to go for it. BNSF 2648 has a full cab with crew members paired with 558 as it passes under Theodore Wirth Parkway. A rock with a 45th Parallel marker sits just to the east along the parkway. For the coordinate nerds, the marker is a hair off, but extremely close in any case.
The size and extent of a persons own library says a lot about them. My bookshelves are full with extra books being added only occasionally, and when I weaken, from book sale trolleys in my libraries.
Some of what my personal library says about me is that I'm from New Zealand as these items show.
Using my lensbaby. HSosS. A great theme.
What matters is not the extent of the acquired knowledge, but that one recognizes values: the truth, the good, the beautiful. Learning must be directed to this goal. Learning should be an act that is valuable in and of itself. It should be an interaction with the object, interested in experiencing its form, its content, and its meaning. In the face of the assertion: “Knowledge is power,” Judaism must proclaim, “Knowledge is love.”

This beautiful bungalow was built in 1916 by Walter Crawford, a lumberyard owner. According to the Philip H. Decker book A Window On The Past. Residences of Jacksonville, Illinois: Their History And Design 1833-1925, it is one of the few houses in Jacksonville that was designed and to a large extent built by its original owner.
The one-and-a-half story house has a flat lapped clay tile roof which, according to Decker, was brought from France as ballast in a ship and gives the house something of the feeling of a country cottage. The house also features a country garden on the south and east sides, It is the result of Mrs. Crawford's abiding interest in China, the land where she was born and raised as a child of Methodist missionaries. Note the carved wooden gates on the right leading to the back yard.
The Walter Crawford House is contributing to the Jacksonville Historic District. Listed in 1978 on the National Register of Historic Places, almost all architectural styles popular in Illinois from 1830 to the mid-1930s are represented in the district.
The central Illinois City of Jacksonville was founded in 1825 and is the seat of Morgan County. The population of Jacksonville was 17,616 at the 2020 census.

The trip to Hungary was very successful, to the extent we are seriously considering a second visit. This image comes from a particularly good day where we got Bee-eaters in the morning and had a highly productive three hours with these Shrikes in the late afternoon.

Was lucky to catch this nice sunrise and cloud formation on the third morning of my trip and on what turned out to be another glorious day. But not so glorious for some. The day before, I had taken a day pack and gone for a tramp along the Whanahuia Range. At the Mangahuia Peak I met up with a group of trampers who were on their way to stay the night at another hut. They were very experienced and well equiped and as we had lunch together I learned quite a lot about the area from them. As I took this photo, two members of this group were being taken by helicopter to the Palmerston North Hospital for urgent medical attention. Meanwhile, back at our hut, two members of the same tramping party (who had stayed at our hut) had been very ill during the night. By morning one had recovered but the others' condition deteriorated to the extent that that person also required transporting by helicopter to the hospital. I hope they all made a speedy recovery.
A street sign at Castor. Church and hill sums Castor up to a large extent, that's the reason it's there. Before the church there was a massive Roman palace or admin centre on the hill.
