I know that the EXIF data shows a focal length of 135mm but I forgot to change the focal length setting inside the camera down to 55mm.
My one and only chance to get some Christmas shopping done this year with everything thats been going on for the last eight weeks ended in an epic fail today as I came home empty handed. I apologise now to my friends and family as Christmas is going to have to wait until January!
Colorado Springs, CO - Everyone gathered to see Uncle Sam (such a weird cartoon character in US history) and his giant head lift off into the Colorado sky. However due to some technical issues Uncle Sam never left the ground.
And now for some random facts you didn't ask for: The cartoonist Thomas Nast, who created Uncle Sam, also made the modern-day version of Santa Claus. But wait, there's more; Thomas Nast also invented the donkey as a symbol for the Democratic Party and the elephant as a symbol for the Republicans.

Shot with No. 1 Panoram Kodak on Ilford Delta 3200 film, expiry date April, 2009. Developed in Fomadon R09 ("Rodinal" clone), 1+25 solution, for 11 minutes, 20 seconds water rinse and 6 minutes fix. – View at least large (still very small compared to the original). – The negative size is usually approx. 6x18 cms; this is an unintentional partial double exposure and thus a bit larger. Scanned in colour. – Just a test shot, technically very flawed.
This is one of the many failed pics that don't make the cut....camera malfunction or whatever?...the timber blinds are spotted, too much shine on my satin robe and too much blur...
How many pics do we take till that perfect shot??
Anyway from memory it was a great night filled with laughter....err?. Maybe we were too drunk to remember lol.
P.S. Might be a pic Suzie took...she was hopeless with camera shake lol.
From Wikipedia...
The Ehrentempel ("honor temples") were two structures in Munich, erected by the Nazis in 1935, housing the sacrophagi of the sixteen members of the party who had been killed in the failed Beer hall putsch. On January 9, 1947 the main architectural features of the temples were destroyed by the US-Army as part of denazification.
Contents
The first memorial
On November 8, 1933, Hitler addressed the party’s old guard at the Bürgerbräukeller (where the putsch had begun) and the next day unveiled a small memorial with a plaque underneath at the south side of the Feldherrnhalle. Two policemen or the SS stood guard on either side of the memorial’s base and passers-by were required to give the Hitler salute.
The inauguration
In 1934 no commemorative march was made on the anniversary because of Hitler’s purge into the SA’s ranks in the Night of the Long Knives. The next year on November 8 the putschists were exhumed from their graves and taken to the Feldherrnhalle where they were placed beneath sixteen large pylons bearing their names. The next day, after Hitler had solemnly walked from one to the next, they were taken down the monument’s steps and taken on carts, draped in flags to Paul Ludwig Troost’s new Ehrentempel monuments at the Konigplatz, through streets lined with spectators bustling between 400 columns with eternal flames atop. Flags were lowered as veterans slowly and orderly placed the heavy sarcophagi into place. In each of the structures eight of the martyrs were interred in a sarcophagus bearing their name.
The martyrs of the movement were in heavy black sarcophaguses in such a way as to be exposed to rain and sun from the open roof. When Gauleiter Adolf Wagner died from a stroke in 1944 he was interred metres away from the north temple in the adjacent grass mound in between the two temples.
Features
At the temples visitors were required to be silent, not wear hats and keep children from running over the centre of the temples. The Ehrentempel was made of limestone except for its roof which was made of steel and concrete with etched glass mosaics. The pedestals of the temples, which are the only parts remaining, are seventy feet wide. The columns of the structures each extended twenty-three feet. The combined weight of the sacrophagi was over 2,900 pounds.
Post-war
On July 5 1945 the American occupying army removed the bodies from the Ehrentempel and contacted their families. They were given the option of having their loved ones buried in Munich cemeteries in unmarked graves or their family plots or having them cremated, common practice in Germany for unclaimed bodies. The columns of the structures were recycled into brake shoes for municipal buses and new material for art galleries damaged in the war. The sarcophagi were melted down and given to the Munich tram service who used it for soldering material to repair rail and electrical lines damaged by the war.
On January 9, 1947 the upper parts of the structures were blown up. The centre portion was subsequently partially filled in but often filled with rain water which created a natural memorial. When Germany was finally reunited plans were made for a biergarten, restaurant or café on the site of the Ehrentempel but these were derailed by the growth of rare biotope vegetation on the site. As a result of this the temples were spared complete destruction and the foundation bases of the monuments remain intersecting on the corner of Briennerstrasse and Arcisstrasse. In the intermittent period of the 1947 destruction and 1990 handover basements (hitherto unknown to the Americans) were uncovered beneath the structures. A small plaque added in 2007 explains their function.

One of the great conceits of any art is the illusion that an expression, be it music, dance, painting or jewelry etc just effortlessly flows from the artist. What most people never see is the piles of effort that didn't pan out as expected. Take the bracelet we posted earlier based on a quilt pattern. A number of these were done before we got the look and feel where we wanted it. The "also rans" got busted up. But on the way to the trash can we're looking at all these cool pieces, and, well....we decided to recycle ourselves (sort of like drinking your own urine, which we have been told is beneficial by friends we no longer invite to dinner). Anyway, we attacked the pieces with saws, grinders and a variety of implements you normally keep away from polymer clay just to see what would happen. Turns out the pieces wanted to be earrings all along.

The Triangle diner in Winchester, Virginia had been undergoing an extensive renovation but it seems to have come to a halt. It looks much the same as it did a rear and a half ago with no evidence of current progress. It's last Facebook post was June 2014. Would be sad to see it's renovation fail to be completed and open for business.

What's wrong with this picture? Display Fail! I think the window dressing crew should have finished their 'swings' before they went to lunch because those poor kiddie manequins look a tad on the worried side with 2 noose like ropes left hanging in the display.
On the 18th July 2016 Deltic 55022 ( running as 55007 ) failed at Levisham Station whilst working a Pickering to Grosmont service, bringing the NYMR services to a standstill. 37264 was summoned from Grosmont to rescue the Deltic and its train.

After seeing 60025 sitting at Waitby, I made my way to Ais Gill to witness the passing of the failed coal train.

I failed in getting 348 the other day at this exact same spot because a woman was in the way but I went back to try again before it goes and finally got it. Patience is a virtue.

I hate when Twitter goes down, but I gotta admit that I have a crush on the Fail Whale.
AND, I think that I was the person who just recently brought Twitter down crashing to its knees: I deleted a post twice. You know that made its head spin. Oh Twitter, you really need to start working out at the gym or something.
Check out this awesome Fail Whale sculpture. Found while checking out the global Fail Whale tags.

I kind of hate the various "I can haz" and "I'm in ur stuff" LOLcats, but I don't really mind the "FAIL" and "PWN3D" genres. "FAIL" and "PWN3D" are easy concepts to get visually, and you rarely ever have to explain the joke... and you know, if you have to explain the joke, well....
"It was a little budding rose,
Round like a fairy globe,
And shyly did its leaves unclose
Hid in their mossy robe,
But sweet was the slight and spicy smell
It breathed from its heart invisible.
The rose is blasted, withered, blighted,
Its root has felt a worm,
And like a heart beloved and slighted,
Failed, faded, shrunk its form.
Bud of beauty, bonnie flower,
I stole thee from thy natal bower.
I was the worm that withered thee,
Thy tears of dew all fell for me;
Leaf and stalk and rose are gone,
Exile earth they died upon.
Yes, that last breath of balmy scent
With alien breezes sadly blent!"
Emily Brontë
