The Green Flash: Fearless Fifty!
I bought this up on impulse from Trader Joe's while in there to pick up a 4-pack of Dogfish 90-Minute. I like saisons, and I think Trader Joe's has a decent line of food-related store-brand goods, so why not? Plus, it was only $6 for a big bottle. I've spent MORE on beer that I've had to dump out
For store-brand, this was a very good ale! It was smooth and refreshing, with only hints of the orange and pepper flavors that they advertise on the label.
I'm curious what others think, and if anyone has tried their other store-brand brews. I welcome your feedback!!

On our recent trip to Arizona, we stopped by the old mining, and now a ghost town and tourist attraction, of Goldfield Ghost Town. After our first visit, my friend and fellow photographer, BillyZ and I decided to go back early the next morning before the crowds arrived and photograph some of the old weathered wood and machinery that had been out aging in the elements for so long.
My friend held a YN560-II in an 8.6 inch Lastolite softbox at camera left for the side lighting that creates shadows to reveal shapes and textures. The flash, in manual mode, was triggered by a Yongnuo RF-603N.
A London Fire Brigade fire boat based at the Lambeth River Fire Station, seen participating in the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant in 2012.
At the time, London Fire Brigade maintained one operational fire boat to respond to incidents and to support the operational crews from its land-based stations. The brigade had a second boat (Firedart) which was used for training and as a reserve when the duty boat needed servicing.
Both were built by Almarintec of Northumberland in 1998. They were driven by two Hamilton water jets. Each unit provides 500 litres per second of thrust being powered by 2 x Volvo TAMD 63 engines producing 370 hp at 2800 rev/min.
The fireboat’s rescue capabilities included three inflatable mud mats, a ‘Jason’s cradle’ for picking up casualties from the river and a bow ramp which can be lowered for beaching and landing on the foreshore. The fire-fighting facilities included a monitor which could deliver water from the Thames at 1850 litres per minute at 10 bars. In addition, the boats had two delivery outlets which could supply water via a hose ashore arrangement for land crews. A separate Hughes noble ejector pump was available for “pumping out” vessels taking on water. The large stable deck area was an ideal working platform for casualty care, and on occasions casualties were even been lowered onto it by helicopter.
Both boats were retired in 2022, being replaced by ‘Tanner’ and ‘Errington,’ two new Welsh-built boats that are faster, can pump more water and are bigger than Firedart and Fire Flash. The names commemorate Harry Errington, the winner of a George Cross, and Gillian Tanner, who was the only female firefighter awarded a George Medal, both during WWII. The new boats' numbers, H23A and H23B, are in memory of two London firefighters, Adam Meere and Billy Faust, who died attending a fire in Bethnal Green in 2004.
I like my shots to appear trendy
My composition to look funky
The mess can make them junkie
It’s a line that I intentionally over cross
Every season I think of a theme
My cam and lenses work in a team
They act to put the style on a steam
That’s my design for which I m the boss

The weekend of April 7th in the California bay area saw several inches of rain a few hours. This is Webb Creek in the north bay, it is part of the Mount Tamalpais watershed. Normally you can't even see. It rolls off of the hills and dissolves into the beach below. On this day it was raging, pulling sediment miles out into the pacific ocean.

Detail of my DIY flash spot grids made from black Coroplast boards and cut-up plastic folders. I made four of them from half an inch to 3 inches deep. They can be stacked together to make them longer and produce smaller spots.
Sample of a shot using the spot grids:

Chakalaka and Cheddar Braaibroodjie is the South African version of grilled cheese sandwich. @yvanallen really out did herself this time!
Foodie Bites: Sourdough + Sharp White Cheddar + Chakalaka (a spicy vegetable relish)… the twist this time? The outside of the bread was slathered with Mayo before grilling. @rainydaybites chose the Chakalaka and Cheddar Braaibroodjie recipe from the amazing cookbook “In Bibi’s Kitchen” by @hawahassan & @turshen. Check my FaceBook page for more on the recipe.
