Received bad news this passed Wednesday, the cancer is back! We don't know where but the blood cancer markers were elevated! My oncologist send me for a bunch of test and CT Scans and Ultrasounds, repeating the blood test tomorrow just to make sure it wasn't a false positive and then we will be discussing the plan of action. Most likely will involve the dreaded chemo. Damn it!
The PF lights stick into the trans clear headlight bricks and the wires run on each side of the engineer. Finally the reason for those blue handles in the very beginning is revealed - they make it MUCH easier to mount the center brick of the lights to the base of the train without disassembling more of the walls.
The Boss was off to a supper function so, having been left to my own devices, I made an executive decision and headed off to a local burger joint, although the franchisee at the Harvey’s on the North Service Road here in Grimsby, Ontario might take a bit of an exception to that description. I had my camera with me and, as I finished my gourmet meal, I spotted one of the restaurant’s staff doing a table cleanup tour. With no other patrons in sight and seeing the potential for a somewhat cinematic looking image given the various brownish tones that were creating a near monochromatic (though not B&W) look, I waited for her to turn her head a bit and captured this. Very high ISO and available light after a burger. - JW

Tech Details:
Taken using hand-held Nikon D800 fitted with an AF-S Nikkor 24-120mm VR 1:4.0 lense set to 46mm, ISO6400 (Auto ISO), Daylight WB, Matrix metering, Shutter Priority Mode, f/4.0, 1/125 sec with an EV-0.33 exposure bias. Note: Since this was shot at ISO6400, noise in PP is an issue but the in-camera Nikon noise treatment was better than I could get from RAWTherapee so I opted to work with the SOOC JPEG file, use GIMP and forget about any sharpening. PP in free Open Source GIMP: scale image to 9000px wide (for future use), add a non-destructive Dodge/Burn layer and use it to slightly brighten the face area, create new working layer from visible results,sharpen slightly, apply noise reduction, save, scale image to 7100px, save, add fine black-and-white frame, add bar and text on left, save, scale image to 3700px for posting online, save.

Then the shit starts to hit the fan !
It was in August 2013 during Les Houches Quantum Optics and Nanophotonics summer school. In a sunny morning. Jean-Jacques Greffet was quietly introducing near-field microscopy, talking about electrostatic and evanescent waves (yes they exist, for real) when suddenly, the Green's function showed up as expected in the calculation of the electric field. At that point I could feel a pain in my stomach and I started to sweat.

This big almost-SHIP has been finished for some time and was displayed at Bricks Cascade 2017. Relative to most of my builds it has a pretty involved function! These WIP shots show the gradual process of paring down and refining this mechanism to boost performance and minimize the space it takes up. More pics coming I don't know when, hopefully soon!
