An abandoned villa in the Italian countryside with some nice details in the living areas upstairs and a lot of large barrels in the basement. Unsure on the history of this but seems to have been abandoned for many years.

CTBC bank is also implementing finger vein scanning and facial recognition at its automatic teller machines (ATM), which would allow customers to withdraw money without having to use a bank card or PIN.
The finger vein technique was pioneered by the Japanese firm Hitachi Ltd and is based on the unique pattern of veins inside a finger. Only a living finger is accepted by the scanner, which is believed to make vein recognition a more secure technology than fingerprint scanning.
The finger vein sensor has a false match rate of 0.01 percent, and its accuracy in measuring the blood flow of a user for identity authentication is unaffected by variations in age and physical condition, the bank said, citing findings by US-based International Biometric Group.

Close up photograph of kitchen implements.
Indeed, I made more than one photograph in the kitchen this week. Will this be a new stylistic direction in my photography? Stay tuned and find out! Like yesterday’s photograph, this subject was on the kitchen counter. I needed something to test out a new camera with a macro lenses, no tiny bugs were handy, so here we are.
As I pondered these two kitchen photographs it stuck me that the patterns, especially with all of the soft blur in the images, reminded me of some close-up photograph s I have made of grasses and similar plants.

The week got away from me so just remembered at 8 last night that I hadn't shot anything for this weeks theme. Rummaged through the kitchen until I came across this handy dandy little gem. A thingamajig to get your olives out of jars and cans.

Taken on 9 April 1988, China Rail 4-6-2 SL 626 climbs the grade away from Longquan (on the outskirts of Changchun) with Train 95 from Changchun to Jilin. I had also photographed it just three hours earlier working into Changchun on Train 534 from Jilin.
SL 626 was probably built in China's at the Sifang Works in late 1957.
Thanks to Robin Gibbons the headboard can be translated to read something like "Be of one heart and mind to implement the four modernisations!"
Britannia Iron Works, Bedford, 10 Oct 2023
The Britannia Ironworks was one of the largest English makers of agricultural equipment, steam traction engines, and light railway equipment. At The Great Exhibition of 1851 they exhibited a range of horse-drawn implements. After World War I, it became part of AGE, Agricultural & General Engineers, along with many of the other British makers of similar machinery.
This gateway, built in 1859, was the entrance to the new works built on a 20 acre site on Kempston Road within easy reach of the town’s two railway lines.
The business closed in 1932 with some 500 workers losing their jobs. The works were put up for sale and was purchased by the Swiss firm of George Fischer. The foundry was completely modernised and started production in 1933 under the new name of The Britannia Iron and Steel Works.
By 1950 the work force had increased to 750 and peaked at just over 1,000 in the 1960s. In 1971 the company name was changed to George Fischer Castings Limited to reflect a more up to date company image. By 1992 the large site had made running the foundry uneconomical and the foundry was closed in 1993.
By 2003 the buildings were being demolished and the site was being developed for housing.

I want to implement more lifestyle shots into my portfolio.
It's something very new for me, to organize people, match their style with the surroundings and to let everything look natural. And with this shot I'm really happy!
This lovely old building could have been a house in the old days - of the mid 1950's. Upon looking through the window, there were old farm implements and rustic tools left behind.

Due to the invasion of southern and eastern European nations by the Warsaw Pact, the EU has sent back their troops to Europe from America to prepare and strategize a retaliation. Due to this soldiers now have a much more common presence in the daily lives of civilians. All forces will be used to create an advantage, even the Leaning Tower of Pisa will be used as a watch tower in Italy. The preparations are almost complete.

For the Purge Chronicles
Doing something very interesting with the leaning tower of pisa was harder than I thought if I wanted it to be pretty accurate, so this is more of a tone scene rather than a detailed one to be more accurate to the area.

Heres a shot of my latest find. An old rusty, crusty, planter/ fertilizer made by Moline. I just put the post fence up this evening, and will be planting flowers around it. I love old farm implements. One of the seed decanters is still somewhat in tact, so I put daisys in it.
With it now 5 months since lockdown restrictions were implemented due to COVID-19, airlines are very slowly starting to see demand returning although this maybe scuppered in part due to spikes in cases being reported.
For Finnair, the carrier was supposed to be operating 7 daily or 49 weekly flights for the S20 schedule with 2 wide-body (one Airbus A350-900 in the morning and one Airbus A330-300 in the evening) and 5 narrow-body flights providing the work. That hasn't happened as capacity has significantly dropped with only 15 weekly flights being provided with Airbus A321s being utilised.
Prior to this, Airbus A330-300s became a common sight at London Heathrow following the W18 schedule whereby between 19th November 2018 to 23rd November 2018, Airbus A330-300s replaced Airbus A350-900s on Monday and Friday, and later from 30th November 2018 until 15th March 2019, Airbus A330-300s operated on Fridays only with Airbus A350-900s operating for the rest of the week on AY1331/1332.
For the S19 schedule, Airbus A330-300s got their own dedicated flight from 31st March 2019 when AY1337/1338 was converted from Airbus A320 family aircraft whilst AY1331/1332 retained Airbus A350-900s on all days although Airbus A330-300s would often substitute.
Now, Finnair is only providing a skeleton service between London Heathrow and Helsinki with only 15 weekly flights provided by Airbus A320 family aircraft, mainly Airbus A321s. The vast majority of their Airbus A330-300s are currently in storage at Helsinki whilst their Airbus A350-900s see work providing cargo and limited commercial flights on long-haul sectors.
Currently, Finnair have 8 Airbus A330s, all of which are Airbus A330-300s. So far, 7 out of 8 Airbus A330-300s are currently in short-term storage.
Lima Tango November is one of 8 Airbus A330-300s currently in Finnair fleet, delivered new to the flag-carrier on 24th April 2009, later leased from Novus Aviation Capital between March 2014 until March 2019 where her lease transferred from DVB Bank and she is powered by 2 General Electric CF6-80E1A4 engines. She has not operated a commercial flight since 11th March 2020 and is currently in storage at Helsinki-Vantaa.

Ruler of the undersea world.
This dramatic mask repesents Kumugwe, Kwakwaka'wakw [First Nations] ruler of the undersea world.
Some know him as the powerful and wealthy Copper Maker. His home beneath the waves is a great house made from copper and filled with food and treasures. Others know him as Master and Protector of the seals and say that he has sea lions as house posts to guard the entrance.
This mask was carved by Komox artist Karver Emerson. His clan possesses the rights to the Kumugwe image.

Cedar and Sea: The Maritime Culture of the Indigenous People of the Pacific Northwest Coast
Pacific Northwest Coastal Indigenous People used their deep knowledge of their environment to harvest its natural wealth, developing sophisticated technologies that enabled them to create and maintain some of North America's most complex and rich cultures.
Cedar and Sea features voices of contemporary Indigenous artisans presenting their work as part of their living traditions, demonstrating resilience as they blend old and new tools, technologies and knowledge to prosper in the face of continuing threats to traditional lifeways.
The exhibit will showcase tools and implements fashioned from stone, bone, shell, wood, and other natural materials, representing thousands of years of innovation by coast Indigenous People from Yakutat, Alaska to southern Oregon, as well as present-day materials and practices used by the living descendants today.

This is a test of developing Kodak Vision color projection film as black and white negative. There's a lot of potential here, but it's acting weird. I think this film might want a more active developer.
Heres my latest find and newest addition to my yard art. Its an old McCormick -Deering lime spreader, circa 1940's. I added some fall garland and plan to add more fall decor to all my old farm implements.
the implements I prepared so as to facilitate giving Sonya water when she becomes weak as she can't drink by herself. But I didn't use that, because she had drunk water by herself until just before her death for luckily and fortunately. Sonya passed away by cardiomyopathy on the morning of October 6th, 2025. She was 7 and a half years-old.
D706 heads east out of GR with the requisite pair of dirty AC4400s that have been on this train for over 2 months. Ever since Trip Optimizer was implemented on the Plymouth Sub, it is rare to see anything but a GE product on 705 and 706.

Ukraine’s priorities include joining NATO, implementing the decisions of the Alliance's Washington Summit, and jointly intercepting Russian missiles and drones. This was the focus of President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s discussion with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte during their meeting in Kyiv.
This is Mark Rutte’s first foreign visit as the leader of the North Atlantic Alliance. President Zelenskyy noted that this visit immediately clearly outlines the current priorities, indicating where the defense of shared Euro-Atlantic values is taking place right now.
“Our key goal is Ukraine’s full NATO membership. Ukraine can become the thirty-third member of NATO. Ukrainians deserve this,” said the President.
During the meeting, the parties thoroughly discussed the prospects for cooperation, the Victory Plan and the feasibility of Ukraine's approach to a just end to the war, the situation on the battlefield, and the needs of our units, including weapons and brigade staffing.
“Ukraine needs to strengthen its positions on the frontline so that we can increase pressure on Russia for the sake of fair, real diplomacy. That is why we need a sufficient quantity and quality of weapons, including long-range weapons, the provision of which, in my opinion, is being delayed by our partners,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized.
A separate focus of the discussion was Ukraine’s air defense needs. It is crucial for Ukraine that all air defense agreements, including those reached at the NATO Summit in Washington this July, are implemented before winter begins. Additionally, Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Mark Rutte discussed additional cooperation with neighboring countries, drawing on examples from the Middle East.
“Jointly intercepting Iranian missiles is no different from jointly intercepting Russian missiles, and especially "Shaheds," which link the Russian and Iranian regimes. What we need in our region is more determination from our partners to put an end to Russian terror,” the President emphasized.
Mark Rutte noted that, as NATO Secretary General, he will do everything possible to increase support for Ukraine.
“Your security matters for ours. Your fight for freedom reflects our core principles and values,” he said.
According to the NATO Secretary General, member states of the Alliance plan to boost their own defense capabilities and strengthen Ukraine’s defense industry.
“Ukraine is closer to NATO than ever before. And we will continue on this path until you become a member of our Alliance. I very much look forward to that day,” said Mark Rutte.
Lighted Farm Implement Parade, Sunnyside, Washington. I am pleasantly surprised how sharp these night photos are considering these shots are hand held and mostly shot at 1/30 and slower shutter speed. IMG_1065
Hanks & Spears Building, 401 Main Street, Genoa, Colorado. The Hanks and Spears building was constructed in 1922 and served for years as the local International Harvester implement dealer. It later became a hardware store, grocery store, and, most recently, a very unique residence. The building is currently being restored by local residents. Note the ghost sign for the Mile High General Store.

Old farm implements at Seaton's Farm, Weddin Mountains National Park, NSW
There is a walk around 'Seaton's Historic Farm', which is now part of the national park. Seatons Farm is how one man and his wife turned every bit of wire into something useful. Jim Seaton hand made 3 km/1.8 miles of kangaroo proof fence by hand, with posts of local saplings, which are rot and vermin proof. The property was occupied in the late 1920s and during the Depression it was set up as a farm. Times and the land were hard and the buildings represent this. The sheds have walls made from flattened corrugated iron so that it stretched further. One of the sheds is full of old wire, iron sheets, bottles, everything you can imagine. All the old machinery is still there, sitting where it was when the family sold the property to the Government in the 1980s. A unique place, showing how the less well off farmers did it in the early and mid 1900s.
