Living a dream should be what we all supposed to be doing. Every day we follow the Sun on its daily trip over horizon, hardly paying any attention to how it looks. But this time you are in luck and for a treat. On Monday you will have a chance to witness and to observe a somewhat rare phenomena. Known as “Transit of Mercury” and meaning that our inner planet Mercury will be going over the milky white face of our Sun, at day time and until sunset. It will take hours, so no rush to observe. Don’t miss it, next one unfold in 2032.
Who knows, some leftover fireworks may just decide to go off too.
CAUTION: Looking at the Sun directly or through a telescope without proper protection can lead to serious and permanent vision damage. Do not look directly at the Sun without a solar filter.

Pretty jacket on and off. One of the great joys of being a woman is the ability to combine different articles of clothing to produce different looks and moods. And of course some of us love posing too.......

My third roll of film shot at the secure grounds. A close shot with the Pentax 67. A recent events at the Putrajaya First Hot Air Balloon Festival , held at Precinct 2, Putrajaya Core Island. The late evening sun casting long shadows for the events...a dramatic sight, and an exciting event.

I was probably asking for it and got what I deserved. The weather forecast was for heavy rain, but I was determined to get some fresh air and feel I had been somewhere.
And so I set off from the base of Mam Tor, along the Great Ridge towards Back Tor, a bit of a sticky up nipple with a tree on it in the distance.
I set off up a sheep path up the side of the hill. It wiggled in and out along the contour line but walking across the slope of the wet hillside it was inevitably slippy and within the first couple of hundred yards I had ended up sat in the mud twice. But I plodded on through the drizzle which became rain and then heavy rain. I ended up battening down the hatches and pulled the drawstring toggles on my Berghaus hood tight around my face as the rain developed into sleet as I headed across the exposed top.
But Back Tor looked enticing as the mist/cloud/fog encirled the base leaving the tree topped promontory isolated against the sky. The weather made the walk pretty grim for me and I took this shot as the sleet came down. In the end there was nothing special to see and having got to the top I turned round for the journey back, aiming for a lower path along the side of the ridge. The weather continued to be cold and miserable and the hillside slippy and wet. But apart from encountering regular clumps of sodden tissue the return journey proved easier until:
The track came to a small dark wood. I guess there isn't much light in there when the trees have their leaves in warmer seasons. So there was just a thin mulch of rotted leaves on top of the rain soaked bare clay earth. If other parts of the walk had been treacherous then this was far worse and I took care to find every little bit of grip I could as I went down. It wasn't elegant. I slipped and fell several more times cursing the mountain bikers who have churned everything into a foetid black slurry. My left foot was giving me some grief, complaining that the horrible black stuff was leaking into my boot. But I made it to the other side where the path sank down into a fenced corner with a stile. From above I could see it was a quagmire.
I hesitated. I didn't want to go down there. I looked up the hillside slope above me and saw that there appeared to be a route higher up and another stile. Right, up we go. It was only about twenty yards up the earthy bank. But it was greasy and brown, oozing dark water in places. It was smooth, no foot steps, hollows into which to put my feet. I went up, one step at a time, testing each foot hold. So many just had no hold and as soon a I shifted weight on to the 'holding' foot it would start to slip down hill on the wet clay soil. I made it up a couple of yards before misjudging my grip and then sliding back down into the mire at the bottom. Again I tried. Same again. It was so exhausting. And so filthy. I was beginning to give up any hope of getting up when I gave it another go. This time I made it almost to the top and stood upright for a moment to catch my breath. And then felt my left foot started to slide so I shifted my weight more on to my right leg, and that foot started to slide. As I started to accelerate (curse my forefather for discovering gravity) I lost my balance and fell to my knees and then on to all fours so that I slid even faster down the mud, the black shit even filling the inside of my coat sleeves. I slid all the way down with the grace of a wallowing hippopotamus down into the filth at the bottom. Some how I had rolled over too so I was coated in thick claggy mud from my chest down to where my legs went into my boots. front and back, my arse full of cold brown stuff too. What a mess! My heart sank. How would I ever get out of there, stuck in a mud pit? No one else around to rescue me! Eventually I made it, grabbing the sparcely spread prickly holly bushes and using my hands thrust down into the mud up to my wrists as land anchors to help me hold position on the slope. I imagined someone in the nearby house howling with laughter behind the bedroom window as they filmed me with their phone, try, try try again and again to get up the slope. Afterwards I wanted to get a shot with my phone too showing all the gouges and boot marks on the slope where I had slid down so many times, but my hands were so muddy I knew I wouldn't be able to make the touchscreen work.
Eventually over the stile I lay down in some rough wet grass to wash some of the mud off. Further on, I saw a large puddle and wondered if I should strip off and bathe in it. But I know you would have wanted photos of that. Just as proof of the story. Besides, the brown water wouldn't have been deep enough to cover my modesty (is that what it's called?)
When I eventually got there, I was so glad to make it back to my car and a warming cup of coffee. Dumping my back pack and filthy coat in the boot with a less than happy looking Darcy, I looked down at my totally sodden and caked trousers. I couldn't possibly get in the car like that. But I had no change of clothes. Or did I? Oh yes! I had a full set! No forget it. No way was I wearing soggy brown stained boxer shorts and a penguin costume all the way home! (You would have wanted pictures of that too you sick bunch!)
Rarely has a very hot bath back at home felt quite so good! With a picnic of home made egg mayonnaise sandwiches and slabs of Melton Mowbray pork pie. Here's a happy tune. If you haven't heard of Skerryvore they are pretty good for a Teuchter band www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbDn7PNM0F4
A blue heron taking off from one of the lakes(ponds) in Phoenix just north of the zoo. Even though it is desert , if there are fish to be had the avian fishermen will be there.
I was hoping for a far nicer sunset that I experienced, but the light cast onto the huge rocks off Hartland Quay was worth the trip alone. This is a place I've visited many times during the day but never for a sunset - loads of scope here for future visits.
A bit of a clamber to this point to get this view but the folded and fractured layers of rock make for an imposing view I think!
The model depicts a spaceship taking off.

Soli Deo Gloria!
More grid action at Armathwaite, expected this time, thanks to DD for the gen. On hire from GBRf to Colas, large-logo 56098 made its predicted appearance on 6J37 1252 Carlisle Yard-Chirk timber piloting 56049. Unfortunately, the habitual late-running meant the classic shot on the nearer part of the embankment was heavily shadowed, coming off the viaduct presented the most solid patch of light. Don’t be fooled by the 85mm lens in the EXIF data, this is a severe crop!

For a while now I've wanted to try cross processing my film. I was given some lomography 120 slide film for Christmas so I thought this was the perfect opportunity. So I had this roll of slide film developed in the chemicals meant for regular negative film, hence the funky colors. I think it makes for an interesting look.
While Soo yard bound 411 lead by a WC GP40 cools its heels in the distance waiting for this job to clear CN 9540 and 4703 team up to lift the Munising job around the wye and up the hill leaving Trout Lake on May 30, 2004. These beat up CN GP40-2W's were a sorry replacement for most of the WC power they replaced in visual appeal and possibly mechanically to.
A Great Egret Ardea alba taking to the air at Ham Wall RSPB, Somerset Levels. This area is where this species first bred in Britain in 2012 and the core of the developing British breeding population.
While driving down a country road in west Ottawa I spotted a small, unusual white 'bump' just sticking up from a clump of corn stalks about 50 meters (160 feet) into the field. A check with binoculars confirmed my guess.
It was a VERY cold, windy morning but I waited this bird out from a distance at the roadside. It had been actively scanning the surrounding field.
Finally it took off. The wind was to my advantage as it was blowing hard from over my right shoulder so the owl took off into the wind and partially facing me.

Hauxley, went down at low/ medium tide this morning and the place was a mess.
Not much to photograph other than the off rock or bit of seaweed.
As the sunrise was naff, I waited until high tide to photograph these large sea defences. They make for a great LE subject.
