Citroën DS 21 injection électronique (1969-1972)
"A 190 km/h, vous avez le choix entre le gaspillage et la DS 21 à injection électronique"
Août 1969, La première voiture française à injection électronique est commercialisée : C’est la DS 21 IE. L’association de la presse automobile française lui attribue son “prix de la sécurité”, loin devant la NSU RO 80, la Renault 16, la Volvo 144 et la Renault 12.
Ses performances égalent les Alfa-Romeo 1750 et Bmw 2000, elle les surclasse en tenue de route et comportement routier (...)

Hard roads and endless lines flow through his veins
Cold steel and hot fuel injected 's the dream that fills his brain
But no, not slow, the speed fever grows
He rides, he sees, he knows
You've got to ride to live, live to ride
Feel the flames burn inside
And though you know, you ride to hide
You ride to live to ride
Life's short and goes too fast, most pages burn
Don't wait, the end's too near, some people never learn
You all won't fall, the road fever calls
So run or fly, don't crawl
You've got to ride to live, live to ride
What's even real? It's not even about flesh or plastic anymore. Might as well tear it all away.

…….Slurry injection - a quick stop the car moment driving back from a garden centre to grab my #073 shot of the day, quite pleased with the phones performance given that he was on the move & I was on the other side of the hedge! He was just lifting the injectors as I ‘clicked’, taken on my phone in Apple RAW & edited in Lightroom. Feel free to Press 'Z' or Pinch out to take a closer look. Alan:-)

“People could look back in 100 years and identify the coronavirus epidemic as the moment when a new regime of surveillance took over, especially surveillance under the skin which I think is maybe the most important development of the 21st Century, is this ability to hack human beings."

The Chinese Wall in the ceter of the photo is a volcanic dike in Wapiti Valley west of Cody Wyoming that cuts through Eocene sedimentary and volcanics rocks. Dikes form as lava is injected into the fractures the host rock and then solidify. In the volcanic areas like the Absarokas these dikes radiate in swarms out from volcanic eruptive centers. The Chinese Wall radiates out from a volcanic center north of Wapiti Valley.
Since my childhood, I have always looked for the Wall on any trip up the North Fork, usually on my way to Yellowstone National Park. It stood by itself on the beautiful north side of the valley. But recently (in the past 10 years), ranches have been sold, land subdivided and homes are starting to clutter Wapiti valley. Even on the northside of the valley, a couple of homes encroach on the Chinese Wall.
I'd suggest a 1962 or thereabouts? Ford Thunderbird Hardtop heading back south after perhaps being at the Ford Hardtop get together at Bathurst.

Remember that dastardly duo I shared with you guys on Monday? Well, an hour and eight minutes later, I was returning up the path and happened to spot this fly - and then realized the scene before me.
What!!
Were they sharing?!
I don't know the story here. Did one of them snag the fly, but the other, on the other side of the fly, only see the fly and go for it, too, not realizing it had already fallen prey?
If they know the other is there, do they care?
If the spider injected venom into the fly, is the ambush bug in trouble?
Such a mystery!

With just a pinch and a dash
instilled silence beyond the Ash
Parus caeruleus play the tune
recalling a twilight's tribune
a mood so completely overthrown
by operatives as yet unknown
handle me with care I know-
not what the future will bestow
in it's subtitled timelessness;
driven to distraction and numbness
a cold raining down of sobriety
revamps the shivers so sharply
this tingling, sensationally borderline
from morbidity and a life divine
give in or give up is optically offered
at the end of a needle, nothing bettered
in the hours upon days I await
for it is still the weeks I cannot translate
into the simplified language of today
words to fit the here and now please say
something to ease and allay my fears
paralyses keep me walking in mind
only Iberian chillouts, music enshrined
keep me going as the athlete of hope
for I'm a surgical-citizen 'walking' a tightrope
in time that isn't on my side, nor in my presence
so it's to Nature that I seek Her finest treatments.

Yesterday we were at Presbyterian Hospital in surgical waiting. My sister's husband had his hand close to a fuel injection line that blew and ended up with diesel fuel injected into him.
Needed surgical debridement.
I wish the door into this patio was unlocked, but I think the reflections actually are okay.
After color boosting and increasing hue contrast in Ps LAB mode, then overlay blur layers and variants of Orton style layers, I had to slide everything back a bit to be able to look myself in the mirror...

Happy Sliders Sunday!
And the brother-in-law's hand is doing better but he might still lose part of a finger and has lots of antibiotic in his near future.
All-in-all, this past week has been a bit rubbish, heartbreakingly traumatic funeral, follow-up hospital visit after surgery on my foot (thanks, chemo) and a healthy dose of poison via canula. I am grateful that this weird drug has been invented and that I'm able to have it, so many in the United Kingdom are denied this treatment because they're caught up in the post code lottery, but it's still tough having it. I am achy in my bones and really longing for a chilled glass of wine, but we don't have any in the house so it'll be a long longing...
The chelicerae (/kəˈlɪsəriː/) are Chelicerae (singular : chelicera ) are the mouthparts of the Chelicerata, an arthropod group that includes arachnids, horseshoe crabs, horseshoe crabs,etc.
Commonly referred to as "jaws", some chelicerae, such as those found in spiders, are hollow and contain (or are connected to) venom glands, and are used to inject venom into prey or a (perceived) threat.
CHINESE PANGOLIN
Pangolins are unusual looking mammals covered in hard scales which are made of keratin – the same substance that forms our fingernails. They can consume up to 20,000 insects a day!
Most pangolin species are now being driven toward extinction primarily because of the demand for their keratin scales, even though there is NO scientific evidence to suggest that the scales contain healing properties or special medicinal functions.
The Chinese Pangolin is listed as critically endangered on the IUCN Red List. It's also a protected species under the Wild Animals Protection Ordinance Cap. 170 in Hong Kong and it's a scheduled species under the Protection of Endangered Species of Animals and Plants Ordinance (Cap. 586), which gives effect to CITES. Any commercial trading of the Chinese Pangolin (which is in CITES I), or its body parts, has been banned.
The IUCN estimate that a pangolin is poached every 5 minutes globally. Pangolins are injected with water and/or force fed with inappropriate diet to increase their mass and therefore commercial value.
Between 2015 and 2019, Hong Kong authorities seized over 35 tons of pangolin scales that represented about 70,000 pangolins. Less than 20% of these seizures were prosecuted.
- If you are extremely lucky to spot a healthy pangolin in Hong Kong, report your sighting to biodivcon@afcd.gov.hk (photo proof required)
- If you encounter an injured or distressed pangolin or any other wild animal in Hong Kong, call AFCD (1823) or SPCA (2711 1000) immediately (both are 24-hour hotlines).

Seconde injection ce matin.
Plus de monde que la première fois, mais ambiance difficile. Quand plusieurs évoquent des effets secondaires importants, les soignants présents minimisent, protestent. Et en même temps, les pompiers distribuent des papiers pour une enquête justement sur les effets secondaires notoires du vaccin.
Paradoxe.
Certains citoyens, les plus âgés, viennent déjà pour une troisième dose, presque résignés. Quelques uns évoquent des souvenirs de morts infantiles familiales pour se rassurer, parlent de guerre...
Pour moi, c'est surréaliste.
Je ne sais pas où nous allons, mais je ne peux que constater la violence, l'arbitraire qui accompagnent le vocabulaire en lien avec l'obligation vaccinale actuelle.

Mr Rocky is so happy to see us. In fact
all the dogs and the nuns were happy.
And yes Molly and Blondie were waiting
for us under the concrete walking bridge.
Everyone was given hot-dogs as they were
injected with their monthly medications. ;-)-
Both no# 1 and I are really burned out and
will need some quality sleep to catch our
second wind. Soon as the dogs are fed
we will head to bed and catch ya all
on the rebound tomorrow morning.
Thank you all for your support ;-)
Thank You.

The Triumph TR5 is a sports car built by the Triumph Motor Company in Coventry, England, between August 1967 and September 1968.
Visually similar to the Michelotti-designed TR4 roadster it was derived from, the TR5 replaced Triumph's 105 bhp (78 kW) SAE Standard inline-four engine with the much more powerful Lucas mechanical fuel-injected 150 bhp (110 kW) Triumph 2.5-litre straight-6. Price pressures and tighter emissions standards in the U.S. resulted in a much less powerful carburetted version, the TR250, being sold on the North American market.
I injected some flowers with Agave Nectar to give this Honeybee a reason to let me get close. Even though this shot is cropped I kept the aspect ratio the same as the un-cropped image (2:3) and Photoshop Elements 2022 up-sampled it, so it is still a 32MP photo.
Tech Specs: Canon 90D (F11, 1/125, ISO 200) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (set to about 1.5x) + a diffused MT-26EX-RT, E-TTL metering, -2/3 FEC. This is a single, cropped, frame taken hand held. In post I used Topaz Denoise AI and Clarity in that order. Shutter and ISO set to expose the sky in the background.

Dyed orchid roots.
Professional growers inject dye into the stems of white orchids to create colours not found in Nature.
The dye leaves a tell tale stain on the stems and roots.
This orchid had striking multi-coloured flowers.
The flowers died back naturally and now, a few months later new shoots are appearing.
It is likely to revert to its original colour now, so I will be very curious to see what appears.
Week 39 Macro 2022
Morgan Plus 4 with a classic Ford 2 litre. A beautiful car in a great colour (Porsche colour from the mid sixties), spotted in a rest area on the Australian Capital Territory and New South Wales border, Australia. Just had to ask the owner for a pic or two, many thanks, Roger.
Hepiopelmus variegatorius.
This is a fairly large (approximately 15mm long) and distinctively marked black and yellow Ichneumon wasp, with yellow u-shape on the mesonotum, thick yellow band along inner margin of eye and yellow marks only on front part of metasoma.
Found in various habitats, often in well vegetated areas.
Usually seen in August/September in Britain.
In Britain this wasp is a parasitoid of Buff and White Ermine moths. The female injects her long ovipositor inside the host caterpillar and deposits her eggs into the caterpillar’s body. Her young hatch and devour their host, pupate, and emerge to begin the cycle again.
Not well recorded in Britain where it appears to be widespread but uncommon.
At time of posting a check of NBN atlas shows 12 records for the UK, not including this one. 7 in England and none in Cumbria, ( where this one was found ), but might just be under recorded rather than being particularly rare.
My best guess would be a 1961 Standard Vanguard Six.
The lack of a bonnet emblem is throwing me a bit!
