Life will come our way,
It has only just begun.
The world will die alone
The frail will fall below.
Time will take our place.
We return it back to one
The calm before the cold,
The long and lonely road.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Drive the cloud away,
We will fall from last to none.
The dark before the dawn,
The world will carry on.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
We bury the sunlight (Failure), we bury the sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
We bury the sunlight (Failure), we bury the sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
Failure....

Today I noticed almost a mass emergence of Common Darters, I saw 15 or so Teneral Common Darters flying up from the waters edge of the Grantham Canal. I decided to see if any were emerging from the fountain this year. Sure enough I found many exuviae around the wall of the fountain and then I found this poor individual.
I found this one this afternoon, after watching for a while I soon realised that it was a failed emergence. For whatever reason this is as far as this one got, The head had just broken through and then I guess something went wrong. So anyway I took a 22 image focus stack using my 1000D, ISO 200, aperture F/6.3 and a 1/160 shutter speed. Thought it made an interesting image.
REALLY NEED TO VIEW LARGE OR ZOOOOOMMMM
Spathiphyllum is a genus of about 40 species of monocotyledonous flowering plants in the family Araceae, native to tropical regions of the Americas and southeastern Asia. Certain species of Spathiphyllum are commonly known as spath or peace lilies. They are evergreen herbaceous perennial plants with large leaves 12–65 cm long and 3–25 cm broad. The flowers are produced in a spadix, surrounded by a 10–30 cm long, white, yellowish, or greenish spathe. The plant does not need large amounts of light or water to survive. Several species are popular indoor houseplants. It lives best in shade and needs little sunlight to thrive, and is watered approximately once a week. Several species are popular indoor houseplants. It lives best in shade and needs little sunlight to thrive, and is watered approximately once a week. The soil is best left moist but only needs watering if the soil is dry. The NASA Clean Air Study found that Spathiphyllum cleans indoor air of certain environmental contaminants, including benzene and formaldehyde. Although it is called a lily, the peace lily is not a true lily from the family Liliaceae. True lilies are highly toxic (poisonous) to cats and dogs, but the peace lily, spathiphyllum is only mildly toxic to humans and animals when ingested. It contains calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause skin irritation, a burning sensation in the mouth, difficulty swallowing, and nausea, but it does not contain the toxins found in true lilies, which could cause acute kidney failure in cats and some other animals. 13140

I decided to make a Paper Box, from Post it Notes.... It seemed like a good idea..... It was more difficult than first thought
There was one success, and a few failures

Kestrel - Falco tinnunculus (M)
(Double click)
The common kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) is a bird of prey species belonging to the kestrel group of the falcon family Falconidae. It is also known as the European kestrel, Eurasian kestrel, or Old World kestrel. In Britain, where no other kestrel species occurs, it is generally just called "the kestrel".
This species occurs over a large range. It is widespread in Europe, Asia, and Africa, as well as occasionally reaching the east coast of North America.
Kestrels can hover in still air, even indoors in barns. Because they face towards any slight wind when hovering, the common kestrel is called a "windhover" in some areas.
Unusual for falcons, plumage often differs between male and female, although as is usual with monogamous raptors the female is slightly larger than the male. This allows a pair to fill different feeding niches over their home range. Kestrels are bold and have adapted well to human encroachment, nesting in buildings and hunting by major roads. Kestrels do not build their own nests, but use nests built by other species.
Their plumage is mainly light chestnut brown with blackish spots on the upperside and buff with narrow blackish streaks on the underside; the remiges are also blackish. Unlike most raptors, they display sexual colour dimorphism with the male having fewer black spots and streaks, as well as a blue-grey cap and tail. The tail is brown with black bars in females, and has a black tip with a narrow white rim in both sexes. All common kestrels have a prominent black malar stripe like their closest relatives.
The cere, feet, and a narrow ring around the eye are bright yellow; the toenails, bill and iris are dark. Juveniles look like adult females, but the underside streaks are wider; the yellow of their bare parts is paler. Hatchlings are covered in white down feathers, changing to a buff-grey second down coat before they grow their first true plumage.
Data from Britain shows nesting pairs bringing up about 2–3 chicks on average, though this includes a considerable rate of total brood failures; actually, few pairs that do manage to fledge offspring raise less than 3 or 4. Compared to their siblings, first-hatched chicks have greater survival and recruitment probability, thought to be due to the first-hatched chicks obtaining a higher body condition when in the nest. Population cycles of prey, particularly voles, have a considerable influence on breeding success. Most common kestrels die before they reach 2 years of age; mortality up until the first birthday may be as high as 70%. At least females generally breed at one year of age; possibly, some males take a year longer to maturity as they do in related species. The biological lifespan to death from senescence can be 16 years or more, however; one was recorded to have lived almost 24 years.

Widely distributed across Britain & Ireland all year round, this small finch is a species of open country and farmland.
UK Linnet numbers fell sharply between the late-1960s and the late-1980s. Since then, the decline has slowed, but the overall population trend is still on a downward trajectory. This negative trend is thought to be linked to increased nest failure associated with agricultural intensification. The Linnet has been on the UK Red List since 1996.
Linnets have an overall streaky brown appearance. Males have more distinctive plumage than females, with a grey head and pink patches on the forehead and chest. They also have a very melodious song. Linnets form big flocks during the winter months, sometimes mixing with other finches, combing the countryside in search of seeds to eat.
Seems to be the curse of RV's. Even though I buy quality name brand tires, use the highest ply rating available, and run a tire pressure and temperature monitoring system, it still happens. This sounded like a gunshot when it blew out. Failures like this can cause a lot of damage to the RV. Fortunately not too bad in this case. Part of the problem may be that I travel a lot of dirt roads or make my own roads over rough conditions. I now travel with two spares, just in case!
The grieving widow's pose, she stands with head held high
Never to re-marry, never gonna try
'Cause that would end the symphony of sadness that we play
And end the songs of wanderlust that she commiserates
So she takes another shot of Crown, it helps to ease the pain
In hopes to ease the void inside, yet somehow it's in vain
'Cause vanity has come along and filled her perfume vile
And every day she dabs a little on her neck and smiles
Behind a mask
Open your eyes, let us see the void inside
Open your eyes, let us see
The old man sits alone staring at the screen
And contemplates these failures, done to his family
'Cause depression's bottles come along and filled his whiskey glass
With every sip put to his lips, erases all the past
So he tells another little lie and tells another tale
In hopes to spare the family and hide his private hell
But the more the words come out of him, like little cuts and scabs
Tearing at the tender hearts who gaze upon a mask
Behind a mask
Open your eyes, let us see the void inside
She puts her feet in well-worn shoes
Walks toward the past
Of the character
Behind the mask
Slowly climb out of your shell
Start to believe
Every now and then those demons
Will come to feast
On your flesh and bones
Behind a mask
Open your eyes, let us see the void inside
Open your eyes, let us see

Here is a different frame unedited raw file which was only cropped. Actually I like this version better. This is why I stress to get it right in the camera,first It makes developing all that much easier. The Fuji-x allows you to over and under expose and see it in the viewfinder. It is a big advantage in getting the correct exposure.
On my way home yesterday I visited a house I had seen before with an old Sierra in the drive. The grass has grown up around the car quite a lot so I guess it hasn't been driven for a while! I decided to desaturate the image quite a bit but not go for the whole black and white thing.

*Working Towards a Better World
I can accept failure, everyone fails at something. But I can't accept not trying. -
Michael Jordan
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment. -
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong. - Ella Fitzgerald
Don't let fear or insecurity stop you from trying new things. Believe in yourself. Do what you love. And most importantly, be kind to others, even if you don't like them. - Stacy London
Being yourself is one of the hardest things because it's scary. You always wonder whether you'll be accepted for who you really are. I decided to call my record 'Inside Out' because that's my motto about life. I don't think you ever succeed at trying to be anyone else but who you truly are. -
Emmy Rossum
Survival can be summed up in three words - never give up. That's the heart of it really. Just keep trying. - Bear Grylls
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo❤️
CP 143 is stopped in Dorval due to issues with the leader (Air Force unit CP 7023) as crewmembers and shop forces look on. After further delay caused by having to set off a car, the train would continue to Smiths Falls where further problems with CP 7023 would cause it to be moved to trail position. At right are two stopped intermodal trains on the CN Montreal Sub (CN 108 & CN 186).
The annual WIldwood Classic Car Show was this past weekend.
I think there were more cars this year than ever before.
I only took a limited amount of pictures this year.
Many of the cars I'd seen before and have photographed many times....and in the end, what am I going to do with all these car pics?
But there were a few that caught my eye, like this 1958 Edsel Pacer Convertible.
Unfortunately for the Ford Motor Company, the public didn't seem too impressed. Folks thought they were over-priced and ugly.
Fords lost millions on the development, manufacturing and marketing of this car.
As for me, I like it! But then, I've always been one to root for the underdog!
It was only made for 3 years from 1958-1960.
... to communicate.
I don't know what happened here.

Corporal! Start the countdown!
Yes General. Countdown starting now! 10-9-8. . .
Those scurvy dogs will never again insult our national pride!
3-2-1. . .
Fire the missiles! At last! Our manifest destiny will be fulfilled!
Uh, General. We have. . . er, we have a problem.
What do you mean? Speak up!
The missiles did not launch, General.
What? Why not?
Um, it seems that someone, er. . . forgot to load the silos. Sir.
You mean to tell me there are no missiles in there?
Affirmative, sir. Do you want me to go get them?
Do I want. . . Yes! Immediately!
Ok sir. Can I. . . can I borrow your car?
Borrow my car? To get the missiles? Idiot!
I forgot my bus pass. I guess I could walk. Back by dinnertime.
Tonight?
Maybe tomorrow.
The White House is not gonna like this.
