SRT has released images of their new Viper badge. I find it too busy to be "read" at very small sizes, and a bit cartoony, so I did a slight redesign.
A series of photos taken in and around the Wholesale District of Downtown Los Angeles, CA. This series attempts to create a portrait of the area through an examination of the architecture and other man-made "modifications" to the area.
The ring that serves as diaphragm/light meter switch in the RC is too thin for my fingers, so I had this bolt screwed on it to serve me as a small handle for the ring, now setting aperture or selecting "A" is a breeze.
El anillo que sirve para seleccionar el diafragma o poner la cámara en posición "A" es demasiado fino para mis dedos, entonces coloqué este pequeño tornillo para que pueda mover el anillo con un solo dedo. Ahora determinar el diafragma o poner la cámara en automático es super fácil.
40063 at Longsight on 14th February 1982. This is one of the Scottish modification locos that had a head code panel installed in place of connecting doors. A former HA loco I'm informed that it had mismatched bogies - one with 4 sandboxes, the nearest one with only 2. On this day, 40063 was keeping company with 40014, 40117 and 40016 which were all cut up in November 1983 at Swindon Works. The 08 is 08789.
Test 1: Trying to scale up Saartje's Bootees for my 4-year-old goddaughter. Knit in the round on 2 circular needles. I took the photo while it was blocking, before the buttons were sewn on.

Any excuse to return to Manhattan Grill is a valid excuse. Our excuse this time was their 'Battle Of The Burgers' - a somewhat short lived menu modification, made to coincide and commemorate American Independence Day (July 4th). It's funny to think that a few centuries ago, celebrating American Independence could have got you in a shit-ton of hot water, but these days we can basically celebrate our less than amicable split from what was our 'most promising colony' in the form of gastro burgers and nobodyâs all that bothered by the whole thing. MEAT UNITY
But yeah, about this Independence Day Menu. It takes the form of three burgers. These are not 'regular' burgers. No. These are burgers designed and prepared by a Marriott Steakhouse. Which means at the very least that they're extremely substantial, extremely high quality and extremely expensive burgers. But I'd rather describe them as little steaks served on burger buns with a delicious and often excessive topping (but it all works in a good way so donât you worry). Thereâs âThe Americanâ - USDA Beef, streaky bacon, sautéed garlic mushrooms, Monterey jack and beer bartered onion rings. Then thereâs âThe Britishâ - Aberdeen Angus, gammon, a fried egg and tomato relish. And lastly, a neutral one called âThe Otherâ - lamb, pickled red onions, coriander and mint yoghurt dip. My personal favourite was The American, whereas Tasting Britainâs founder Bryony preferred The British. Therefore culinary stalemate ^_^
A little more about Manhattan Grill. Based underneath the prestigious and expensive Marriot Executive Apartments in Canary Wharf, (by West India Quay station) - Manhattan Grill boasts stunning riverside views, and a head chef from Mexico City who has cooked for President Obama no less. We profiled him on Tasting Britain and heâs been hiding from me ever since. Theyâve also got one of those splendid enomatic machines so you can drink single glasses of VERY fine wines (Manhattan Grill seem particularly keen on Château Mouton Rothschild but they also have my very favourite Federalist Zinfandel and a few other tasty numbers from all over the world). They did us a mini wine tasting and Bryony found the first red wine that sheâs ever enjoyed. This in itself is amazing! Well done (again) Manhattan Grill.

Exploring Photography: This week's topic is "Edited".
My camera takes poor photographs when the light is low....such as at dusk.
This was such am amazing surreal sunset with the rural colors of the dry grass along the dirt road , the vivid saturated green of the cane field , the layered haziness of the mountains in the background, against a pastel sunset. Its was so contradictory that I tried to capture it.
This is the edited version. Its still does not do it justice because you can't see the true tone of the grass.
I tried all the setting I could find on my 'point and shoot' camera, but nope. Low light does not produce the best image.
My camera is a Canon digital IXUS55
The original is along side this picture. It is very dark yet in reality you could still all the colors. I can't wait until I can afford a wacky-do SLR camera that I have more control of the amount of light I can allow in.
Anyway, this is an example of 'edited'. Steps I took to attempt to bring up the true colors I saw.
resize; levels; hue/saturation/lightness; layers and spot editing; sharpen
Although I love my Weber Smokey Mountain it doesn't come with a built in Thermometer.... which is really a must have for a smoker. So I read a few websites and voila....
