Single grided spot high above camera right, bare strobe behind model shooting through smoke (fog machine)
Model: Billy Brayshaw
This photo was taken last week also in the abandoned airplane hanger. Not as satisfied with this one but the upside newspaper that ironically says "get smart" tells a story. Canon 430EXII shot through 22in. Beauty dish with grid at full power. Canon 430EXII shot through home made snoot pointed at the newspaper at 1/64th power. Tamron 18-200mm
I always try to track the birds with my lens and save a few images for the buffer even after they make their catch. They typically do something really cool, like look at their fish, eat it mid-air, or even drop it. It is very entertaining. www.troymarcyphotography.com
The goslings are really growing and every day they are loosing their cute fuzz and the tale tell signs of becoming an adult are becoming more apparent.

I want to thank you for taking the time to visit my little space here on Flickr.
One of my favourite things in life - Charity Shop and Boot Sale hunting. Thought I would show you some of my recent finds - hope you like!

The Pratt & Whitney J58 (company designation JT11D-20) was a jet engine that powered the Lockheed A-12, and subsequently the YF-12 and the SR-71 aircraft. Twin J58s pushed the SR-71 to a cruising speed of 2,211 MPH.
The J58 was a single-spool turbojet with an afterburner. It had a unique bleed from the compressor to the afterburner which gave increased thrust at high speeds.
This feature caused it to be referred to as a turboramjet in some writings.
It delivered 25,000 pound-force (110 kN) of thrust without afterburner (dry) and 34,000 (150 kN) with afterburner (wet).
General characteristics
Type: afterburning turbojet with compressor bleed bypass
Length: 180 in (4,600 mm) (an additional 6 in (150 mm) at max. temp.)
Diameter: 50 in (1,300 mm)
Dry weight: approx. 6,000 lb (2,700 kg)
Components
Compressor: 9-stage, axial flow
Combustors: Cannular 8 burner cans in an annular combustion casing
Turbine: two-stage axial flow
Fuel type: JP-7, JP-4 or JP-5 for emergency refuelling from any tanker (Mach 1.5 limit)
Oil system: Pressure spray return system with Fuel-cooled oil cooler
Performance
Maximum thrust: 34,000 pounds-force (151.24 kN)
wet, 25,000 pounds-force (111.21 kN) dry
Overall pressure ratio: 7.5 at take off
Bypass ratio: low bypass ratio to afterburner
Air mass flow: 300 lb/s (8,200 kg/min) at take-off power
Specific fuel consumption: 1.9 lb/lbf (190 kg/kN) per hour
Thrust-to-weight ratio: 5.23 lbf/lb (0.0513 kN/kg)
This is the "Get Pushed" challenge issued by syahrel azha hashim with the theme of "Lightbulb". I was given the freedom to shoot anything, but it had to include a lightbulb. Here's my take...
With the fresnel lens, this 1 kilowatt bulb produces a beam visible under favorable conditions up to 15 miles away. I really liked the glow from this angle. The shot in the comments, you can see that it has a completely different glow.
This lightbulb resides at the Point Piños Lighthouse located on the northern most tip of the Monterey Peninsula. This marks the entrance to Monterey Bay and a definite hazard to the Mariner. The stone lighthouse was put into service in February 1, 1855. Everything from the building, lenses and prisms are original. It is the oldest continuously operating lighthouse on the west coast and is listed on the national register of historic places.
He had a wander around in the garden for a while and then decided to take a closer look at me. He jumped up onto this little pine border edging and gazed at me fluttering his little wings expectantly, but to no avail as I had nothing on me to give him. He was about 4ft away from me at this point :)

After seeing a mention by Stephen Downes of a presentation he did for the 2023 Open Education Conference called Open Learning in the Fediverse which is now, thanks to Dr Tesla, the hot topic.
For some reason I felt an urge to remix the opening credits to a favorite show when I was a kid, Get Smart.
Okay, there is a low resolution image in Wikimedia Commons declared as fair use, for which my use here is likely not a qualifier. Hmmm, How about a case of parody? To the copyright holders, if anything, my use might offer more people to look up this classic show, watch, and appreciate what a treasure it was. My use is not o steal or take away from Get Smart but to honor it.
Who owns popular culture? The rules are not written into law, so my remix is likely the most legal. But I will roll the dice.
My source was a screen grab from the YouTube video www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJ6gdRfBW6c where I used Photoshop to copy brush out the SMART letters, and replicate with a font guess (Georgia) for the words "Federated".
Is this changed enough from the original? Leave it to the lawyers.

Today I meet up with a person from Flickr who lives in New Zealand and we just happened to be at Surfers that same time. We have just had some lunch and now we are wanting to watch the feeding of the Pelicans here at back doors of the Charis Seafood shop. this all happen around 1.30pm except for Mondays.
The Pelicans start arriving hour or so before and wait around for their fed of fish. The fish carcass are tossed into the air, most get one fish and move off but some wait around for some more!.
Throwback to my shoot with Nick.
On a side note, I am considering some of these to be a part of my 365, but I lost track of what day I'm on, so I'll just update that part later.
Getting into it: time for the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Three packs of stinky, gooey concoctions of herbs and whatnot are applied to different areas of my two legs. They are left on for four hours. After they have been taken off, the pain in each area has increased dramatically. Understandably, I asked them not to do that again.
This was something that I quickly made earlier today for an event we're hosting in August for RMAI Pastors within our district.
This is the screen graphic version of a flyer that had a lot more info, so I opted to upload the prettier version.
We've got a little bit before the event, so if you guys have any thoughts on how to improve this a bit, I'd appreciate the feedback!
