iss063e017117 (May 24, 2020) --- The sun's rays glisten in this photograph from an external high definition camera as the International Space Station orbited over the Atlantic Ocean southwest of South Africa.
This is a shot of Edward Thompson designed Class B1 of 4-6-0 wheel arrangement and having twin external cylinders. She was built in North British in Glasgow and was new to traffic in 1948. She has been in preservation since 1967.
This year she has been a regular and popular visitor to the westcountry.
This shot shows her along the River Teign just east of Newton Abbot passing a local area known as Red Rock which i am standing on.
She was working the 1Z69 1700 Plymouth to Nantwich.
Unfortunatly the sun had ducked behind some clouds as she approached but she did put on a spirited display as she passed looking and sounding fantastic.
Christmas... is not an external event at all, but a piece of one's home that one carries in one's heart.

Thanks for the textures goes to Salma Rashad and JoesSistah. Redheadstock helped decorating the tree.

Internally the building had some clear signs of modernization in comparison to the much older external architecture. Château Sous Les Nuages or the Castle in the Clouds appears to have been left empty with much of the belongings left behind. There are some hint to attempts to renovate the place post abandonment, tool catalogues and timbers and other building materials but this castle appear to have been left once again...

"A black 21mm-viewfinder would look good on a black camera set," I thought, so I dug through my toolbox for a black finder with some issues (haze and balsam on the outside of bright-flame) and brought it over from Japan...
But here in Bangkok, I found a "like new EVF for an unbelievable price," so I got it as a spare... (This is my third EVF for two M10 series cameras, but I can say for sure that these electronic parts of Leica always break down before the camera body does, and in the case of Leica, not only will they not repair it, but by the time it does break down, production will have ended and we won't be able to get a new one.)

In the city of Catania (Sicily) in occasion of the feast of her patron Saint Agatha, which took place on the 3, 4 and 5 February (this dates commemorates the martyrdom of the young Saint), and on 17 August too (this date celebrates the return to Catania of her remains, after these had been transferred to Constantinople by the Byzantine general Maniaces as war booty, and there remained for 86 years), when the Sicilian city is dressed up to feast, with a scent of orange blossom and mandarins, and its citizens show that they possess an extraordinary love and bond with the young martyr saint Agatha.
The religious sicilian feast of Saint Agatha is the most important feast of Catania, its inhabitants from five centuries, during the three days of the feast in honor of her "Santuzza" (young Saint), create a unique setting, with celebrations and rituals impressive, which means that this event is regarded as the third religious festival in the world (some say the second ...) after the "Semana Santa" in Seville and the "Corpus Christi" in Cuzco, Peru. Unlike other religious holidays, more sober, to Sant'Agata highlights a vocation exuberant typical of the south Italy, who loves to combine the sacred with the profane.
The cult of the young Santa dates back to the third century, when the teenager Agatha was martyred for refusing the roman proconsul Quintiziano. One year after the death of the young Agatha, on 5 February of the year 252, his virginal veil was carried in procession, and it is said it was able to save Catania from destruction due to a devastating eruption of Mount Etna.
The festivities begin with the procession of the "Candlemas", that are giant Baroque wooden "candlesticks" paintings in gold, each representing an ancient guild (butchers, fishmongers, grocers, greengrocers, etc.), which are brought by eight devotees; the candlemas anticipate the arrival of the "float" of Saint Agatha during the procession. Devotees, men and women, wearing a traditional garment similar to a white bag, cinched at the waist by a black rope, gloves and a white handkerchief, and a black velvet cap, and it seems that such clothing evoke nightgown with the qule the Catanese, awakened with a start by the touch of the bells of the Cathedral, welcomed the naval port, in 1126, the relics of the Holy which fell from Constantinople. On float, consisting of a silver chariot sixteenth of thirty tons, which is driven by a double and long line of devotees with the robust and long ropes, takes place the bust of Saint Agatha, completely covered with precious stones and jewels. On February 4, the parade celebrates the so-called "external path" that touches some places of martyrdom in the city of Catania; the next day, the 5 instead the procession along the "aristocrat path", which runs along the main street, Via Etnea, the parlor of Catania. On this day the devotees carry on their shoulders the long candles of varying thickness, there are some not very big, others are fairly heavy, but some skim exceptional weights.
I am posting here, on Flickr, photographs taken during the two days of February 4 and 5 of this year 2023.

Nella città di Catania (Sicilia) in occasione della festa della sua giovane santa patrona Agata, che ha avuto luogo come ogni anno il 3, il 4 ed il 5 di febbraio (questa data commemora il martirio della Santa giovinetta), festa che viene ripetuta anche il 17 agosto (questa data rievoca il ritorno a Catania delle sue spoglie, dopo che queste erano state trasferite a Costantinopoli da parte del generale bizantino Maniace come bottino di guerra, spoglie che ivi rimasero per 86 anni); per questa occasione la città siciliana è vestita a festa con profumi di fiori d'arancio e mandarini, coi suoi cittadini che mostrano di possedere uno straordinario amore e legame con la giovane martire Agata.
Gli abitanti di Catania, oramai da cinque secoli, nei tre giorni della festa in onore della "Santuzza", danno vita ad una scenografia unica, con celebrazioni e riti imponenti, che fanno si che questo evento sia considerato come la terza festa religiosa al mondo (qualcuno dice la seconda ...) dopo la "Semana Santa" di Siviglia ed il "Corpus Domini" a Cuzco, in Perù. A differenza di altre feste religiose, più sobrie, quella di Sant'Agata mette in luce una vocazione esuberante tipica del meridione, che ama unire il sacro col profano.
Il culto della giovane Santa risale al terzo secolo, quando l'adolescente Agata fu martirizzata per aver rifiutato il proconsole romano Quintiziano. Un anno dopo la morte della giovane Agata, avvenuta il 5 febbraio dell'anno 252, il suo velo virginale venne portato in processione, e si narra esso riuscì a salvare Catania dalla sua distruzione a causa di una devastante eruzione del vulcano Etna.
I festeggiamenti iniziano con il corteo delle "candelore", le quali sono dei giganteschi e pesanti "candelabri" in legno, in stile barocco, dipinti in oro, ognuna rappresentante una antica corporazione (macellai, pescivendoli, pizzicagnoli, fruttivendoli, ecc.), che vengono portati da otto devoti: esse anticipano l'arrivo della "vara" di Sant'Agata durante la processione. I devoti, sia donne che uomini, indossano un tipico indumento simile ad un sacco bianco, stretto in vita da una cordicella nera, guanti ed un fazzoletto bianchi, ed infine una papalina di velluto nero, sembra che tale abbigliamento rievochi la camicia da notte con la quale i Catanesi, svegliatisi di soprassalto dal tocco improvviso delle campane del Duomo, accolsero al porto navale, nel 1126, le reliquie della Santa che rientravano da Costantinopoli. Sulla vara, costituita da un carro argentato cinquecentesco di trenta quintali, trainata da una doppia e lunghissima fila di devoti tramite delle robuste e lunghe funi, prende posto il busto di Sant'Agata, completamente ricoperto di pietre preziose e gioielli. Il 4 febbraio, il corteo compie il cosiddetto "giro esterno" che tocca alcuni luoghi del martirio nella città catanese; il giorno dopo, il 5, il corteo percorre il "giro aristocratico", che percorre la strada principale, la via Etnea, salotto buono di Catania. In questo giorno i devoti portano in spalla dei lunghi ceri di vario spessore, ce ne sono alcuni non molto grossi, altri sono discretamente pesanti, ma alcuni sfiorano pesi eccezionali.
Io sto postando qui, su Flickr, fotografie realizzate nelle due giornate del 4, e del 5 febbraio di quest'anno 2023.

A very pleasant Saturday and so an ideal day to slip into my favourite black skater skirt. It's funny how sometimes external events can effect the way you dress. I was watching a program on TV last night, and saw one of the main characters of the series I am watching wear a black skater skirt for a short time. It made up my mind to wear mine today.

A very pleasant Saturday and so an ideal day to slip into my favourite black skater skirt. It's funny how sometimes external events can effect the way you dress.

Males and females cannot be distinguished by their plumage. The only external distinguishing feature is the underside of the beak. The female has an orange underside of the beak. This orange colouring increases with the age of the female.
Poppi is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Arezzo in the Italian region Tuscany, located about 40 km (25 mi) east of Florence and about 30 km (19 mi) northwest of Arezzo.
Poppi Castle, or the Castello dei Conti Guidi, the main building in the Casentino, known from 1191, was owned by the Counts Guidi. It has additions by Arnolfo di Cambio. It has a courtyard, an external staircase, its chapel with frescos and its library containing rare manuscripts and incunabula.

At the other end of this train is another NBL type 2, D6145. By co-incidence a few months later from when this photograph was taken, on the 15th October 1965 these 2 locos hauled the very last Royal train from Ballater to Aberdeen.
Part of a series of shots on time and its perception
The concept of time is called by concentric rings of the trunk, indices of life cycle and becoming.
Their sequence expresses the path of the lymph (life), its get cyclically that winds through the seasons.
Our perception (external) of this passing is the result of an unspoken rule that allows us to attribute the abstract concept of time even to those who do not know this concept.
Nature does not perceive time as a sequence of seconds minutes and hours, but as a single becoming through eras.
The subjective perception and attribution of time translates, in this case, the desire to measure and categorize the world around us, often with attributes that do not belong.
Growing corn quickly tends to block the railroad tracks - and roads - from view. It's fast growing stuff, as just two weeks after I snapped this, the tops of the corn crop were covering up much of the wheels on passing trains. Even higher now, too! There were a few spots I would have liked to get a good distant field shot with crops growing, rather than just drab brown after harvest, but that'll have to wait till next year.
NS255 came rocketing through Sadorus after its brief slow order across the CN diamond back in Tolono. We only beat it here from Homer because of that slow order - it's tough to chase anything on the Lafy, but the RoadRailer is notoriously hard to catch up to. You really can only do so much and have to hope for some other reason for them to slow down. We were cutting it close with our daylight and cloud cover, too. 255 had been pretty late this day, so we lost our nice golden light. A bit moody of a view instead, works for me anyway.
Bodily processes and states can be inspected by external observations. Thus a person’s bodily life is as much a public affair as are the lives of animals. But minds do not exist in space, nor are their operation subject to mechanical laws. The workings of the mind are not witnessable by other observers; its career is private. A person therefore lives through two collateral histories: one consisting of what happens to and with the body (public); the other consisting of what happens to and in the mind (private).
As I stated before in one of my postings, if we were telepaths, we would know what is in the other persons minds ~ Are we ready for that ? And what about when we are on the net ? Is long distance telepathy possible ? Hehe...!
;-D~
