Viewed from one of the exhibition rooms at Hellifield and across the lever frame from Giggleswick signal box, Northern Class 158 No. 158789 departs with 2H06, the 10:18 Leeds – Morecambe service on 13 December 2024. Tom frames up the going away shot.

Seen yesterday while walking through the Prudential Center. I hope you all had have a great day, and I’ll catch up with you soon!
Another from the sequence of shots I took of the Buzzards fighting.
3 birds were involved in the most vicious fighting I have ever seen. It lasted for over half an hour and the attacks were always the same.
With one bird guarding the rabbit the others climbed above the oak trees and repeatedly dived like a peregrine, making contact with the bird on the ground and knocking it over.
I didn't think Buzzards could move so fast and trying to track them in the dive proved impossible. I changed method and focussed on the bird on the ground. As soon as it flared it's wings and opened it's beak, it meant a bird had started it's dive.
I hit the motor drive and even at 12 fps. I rarely got 2 frames with both birds in the shot.
From hundreds of shots, I was lucky enough to get quite a few keepers.
Each window frame in this Toronto highrise showcases something different. The sun was hitting some of the frames giving a golden glow while other frames tried to capture the CN Tower in puzzle pieces. Have a great Window Wednesday.
I made a zine, containing 12 photographs I made between January and May 2021.

The photo is about life in frames. Here this is a compartment of a train and people are traveling by this train. Here on the right window a child is looking to the outside through the compartment window and on the left window, we can see a person's shape in silhouette.

A different angle on Optical photography, lol, my angle, this time seen from the back…
Do you also see Dali's moustache? LOL
In an ‘understated’ red.
Have a lovely day and thank you for viewing, M, (*_*)

Heumarkt U-Bahn station, Cologne, Germany
Lighting for the new Heumarkt U-Bahn station
in Cologne creates lively views
Each of the eight stations on the new North-South rapid transit (U-Bahn) line in Cologne was designed by a different architectural firm. Four of these stations use lighting technology from WE-EF. The largest of the stations, which is at Heumarkt, offers an impressive demonstration of how the luminaires contribute to function, safety and aesthetics all at the same time.
Featuring vaulted ceilings, the surprisingly large hall on the top floor of the new Heumarkt U-Bahn station resembles a church nave. In reality, however, it serves a purely worldly function as an access point to the deeper train lines and the location of a 300-m2 shopping pavilion. If Cologne's East-West line is moved below ground at some point, this intermediate level will be transformed into a train station as well.
The dynamics and vivacity of Heumarkt station are conveyed through the architecture, not only by the lively vaulted hall but also the numerous cut-outs and visual axes that open up a wide range of new perspectives. From some locations the entire height of the building can be seen – from the deep level of the North-South line and the intermediate level, to the glassed stairways leading above ground, where natural daylight enters the structure.
Given the great differences in room heights, some spanning various floor levels, the task for the lighting design team was to generate sufficient illuminance at the transport levels from a wide range of lighting point heights. A particularly versatile lighting instrument was required in order to manage the heterogeneous installation positions as well as the installation/mounting conditions, using a continuous luminaire design. WE-EF DOC240 recessed exterior downlights are the ideal solution for evenly powerful and flexible lighting.
In the Heumarkt station, DOC240 luminaires are mounted in a variety of combinations – incorporated with cross-members and integrated with the perforated metal sheet cladding of the station ceiling, and directly installed in both level and inclined concrete ceilings. In areas that are difficult to access, such as above the escalators and stairways, the downlights have been installed on luminaire lifts. These lifts make it possible to lower the luminaires for servicing or to replace lamps, which is a tool-free process.
Arranged in pairs between the cross-members along the apex of the arched ceiling, DOC240 luminaires form an impressive band of light. They direct impressive light downwards, while WE-EF FLC131 projectors illuminate the ceiling panels along the zenith line.

Katy and I worked so hard hanging all of these up and we love our big blue wall so much.
The frames at the top of the tv are our Halloween decorations, haha.
Sunflower frames, made Rotterdam 1997. Picture in my studio in Delfshaven 2010.
These frames are a sort of mix of painting and sculpture. It refers to the postmodernistic idea that every thing we think is based on frames.
The sunflowers in the sculptures are made from the sieves of caffettieres. I got a hold of a bunch of them after the fabrication of a series Chick sculptures from those caffettieres. The 32 sunflowers in these three flower frames are sort of the whole production of chicks in my earlier years.
