Day 278 of my 365 project (take and show 1 new picture every day for a whole year), thanks for your likes and comments... :o)
Was curious to see what a vertical crop at CP-CAPITOL would look like, and I realized I had a later frame of 98 that would work for that purpose. I'm partial to horizonal photos, but in terms of highlighting the important elements of this shot I think this does well. For those who opt to shoot here, the chainlink fence is tricky to deal with as you need to open the aperature wide and just shoot through it. Redundant shot, yes, but good luck ever seeing a P42 here again! The normal route for 98 involves a left turn up the Washington Terminal just behind the rear of the consist.

Canarias Stratoport for HAPS & UAS
The Canarias Stratoport for HAPS & UAS is a pioneering infrastructure project located in the Fuerteventura Technology Park, Canary Islands. It aims to develop a public infrastructure for shared use, focusing on the R&D&I, integration, operation, maintenance, and testing of High Altitude Pseudo-Satellite Stratoport (HAPS) and Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) platforms. The project is part of the Canary Islands Geo Innovation Program 2030 and has received significant funding from the European Union and local governments. The facility is designed to support the development, integration, operation, maintenance, and onboarding of HAPS platform applications and missions, creating a technological hub in Europe. It is equipped to centralize long-distance operations for UAS and HAPS at various altitudes, operating beyond the visual line of sight (BVLOS). The project also includes a U-space airspace risk assessment (ARA) and dedicated flight corridors for HAPS operations, setting a new benchmark for
Excerpt from www.flamboroughtoday.com/spotlight/waterdown-village-welc...:
A highlight of fall in Waterdown Village is the annual Scarecrow Walk, starting in this eighth year on October 11 and running right until Hallowe’en.
“Once again, our local businesses and community partners will display uniquely decorated scarecrows, animating our streetscape and giving people of all ages more than 130 reasons to Walk Waterdown,” exclaimed Waterdown Village BIA Board of Management Chair, Amanda Groves.
She added, “The Scarecrow Walk has fast become a signature event for the community. Clues featuring mugshots of favourite monsters will be placed on 20 randomly selected scarecrows for scavengers to find for a chance to win shopping spree prizes. You can discover new businesses, take selfies with your favourite scarecrow entries, and test your detective skills to find all 130+ scarecrows and all 20 clues, for a wonderful day out for the whole family.”
The last of the patients were being prepared for life outside the asylum as the demolition took hold .....

While the broken clay pipe used to protect the shoreline along this section of Lake Ontario makes somewhat unsure footing to walk on I loved the contrast it created.

A Gerrit / Amon statement
Amon is not a character and not a fantasy.
He is a name I gave to a part of my mind.
For some people with AuDHD (autism combined with ADHD), thinking does not move in straight lines. It accelerates, branches, associates, creates. That intensity can be a source of insight and creativity — but under long-term stress or trauma, it can also become overwhelming.
In such systems, something interesting can happen.
Not a role.
Not an invention.
But a structure.
A way for the mind to organize itself when pressure becomes too high.
A representative that holds focus, strength, distance, and coherence when the core self is overloaded.
Not consciously created, and not something that can be forced or imitated.
This is self-preservation, not mythology.
I live as Gerrit in the real world.
Amon became visible in Second Life — a space where identity is flexible and expression is safe. Not as an escape from reality, but as a container: a way to carry aspects of myself that could not remain unstructured any longer.
This work is called Integration because it is not about splitting or dissociation.
It is about alignment.
The human and the symbolic are not in conflict here.
The technological is interface, not control.
Power is present, restrained, and owned.
This is not an alter ego meant to replace the person.
It is a support structure that emerged when adaptation was no longer enough.
Similar mechanisms have appeared publicly before — not as pathology, but as function. One well-known example is David Bowie, whose Ziggy Stardust persona was not deception, but a way to protect and channel creativity under pressure. Not to make this “true,” but to show that this phenomenon exists.
If this concept feels unfamiliar or uncomfortable, that is fine.
This is not a belief system and not a claim.
But for those who recognize it, no further explanation is needed.
This is not fantasy.
It is not something to aspire to.
It is what can happen when a mind adapts in order to survive.
Integration means nothing is hidden — and nothing is pretending.
