002/365
Day 2 and I'm already out of ideas...ha-ha. Seriously though, doing a 365 has caused an interesting side-effect. Once I've taken a picture that I think I'll use, I don't want to take any more pictures for fear of wasting an idea for another day. Anyone else?
The SOOC version of this was very over-exposed. I'm still getting used to the D90 and have made some pretty silly "rookie" mistakes the last few days. It's one of the reasons I'm looking forward to doing a 365. I used Lightroom and Photoshop until I came up with something I liked.
On another note, I decided to forgo the blog and just write down everything here.

Built this custom one off guitar amplifier for a customer in the US. He had a bunch of very specific requests for this build that started out as a reissue Fender.
The ONLY parts that remained were the steel chassis and the timber cabinet...and knobs!
I designed two very different input channels based on his description and needs. The transformers were replaced with custom spec units as one of his requests was the desire to use ANY output tube from the little 6V6 through to big daddy KT88, hence the external bias test and set points on the back. The output stage was switchable from triode to pentode operation to further the flexibility of the output stage. This all posed some interesting challenges for transformer impedance and power ratings.
There is the option of selecting either tube rectifier or silicon diode for the high voltage, the tube is saggy and compressed, the diode is stiff and punchy.
All components were of high quality, ceramic tube sockets, CTS pots, Sprague capacitors for filter and interstage, and the whole design was on tag board.
My aim was for every component to sit parallel to each other and nothing strung between tags, its just a neatness thing, no bearing on reliability or tone.
Speakers and reverb tank were also chosen to replace what this amp came with.
It is a 2 X 10" combo format.
I felt a little sad tonight when I dropped Ozzie and Vinny off at the vets.
They will both be neutered in the morning, and hopefully they'll be back home, safe and sound.
Hands Off! Protest in Vero Beach, Florida on April 5, 2025. A large crowd of over 2000 showed up to protest Trump and Elon Musk policies and the havoc caused by DOGE. This was one of 1200 locations where people raised their voices across the nation with more than 5 million participating. Resist!

"Off Duty"
Poppy is gorgeous to take photographs off, this is her first ever shoot & I'm very pleased with this set outcome.
- Okay, I'll be honest, I've cropped this image. Because, with the original, I didn't really like how I set it out. (The image wasn't straight) But I've cropped is as straight as possible, and I think it works perfectly!
(Believe it or not, Poppy & I was both tipsy!)

Hope to get some new pictures this weekend, but for now it's off to work. Catch up tonight!
The remarkable spectacle of three locomotives in steam at Barrington cement works during the morning of 11th September 2003, with all three at working steam pressure and ready to move off for quarry duties. Left to right are Hawthorn Leslie 0-4-0 saddle tank 'Singapore' (Works No.3865 built in 1936), Avonside 0-4-0 saddle tank 'Dora' (Works No.1973 built in 1927), and Newcastle-built Robert Stephenson & Hawthorns 0-4-0 saddle tank 'Birkenhead' (Works No.7386 built in 1948). Partly visible behind is one of the latter fleet of quarry locos which replaced the Rustons, Thomas Hill Vanguard 4-wheel diesel-hydraulic (Works No.127V built in 1963 and rebuilt 240V in 1972).

Take off accomplished! Yet another of the geese taking off at Shelby Farms. You can see a couple of ducks standing on the ice of the partially frozen lake. There were over a hundred geese sitting on the ground to the left of this and about every couple of mins a group of them would take off, fly over and land either on the ice or water...having the best time!! These had just taken off from the lake and then circled around and landed before taking off again. It was so much fun!!! Cold, but fun!
I thought that was a blue heron standing on the embankment and NorthwestKathleen just said it too!! If you put it on large, you will see it :)

It was late, and Maurice knew that if he didn’t get to sleep soon, the morning would come and he would not have enough energy to work in Santa’s Workshop. He climbed his way up the stairs to the attic bedroom with Bentley in his arms, hugging him tightly as he went. “I’m so glad that engineer brought you to me,” he whispered. He didn’t want any of the other elves to hear him. They were too busy making a mess in the kitchen, so he was able to make his way up without being noticed.
The noise in the kitchen, however, was too loud! He could still hear them drop things onto the floor. “I do hope it will be easy for them to clean up their mess,” he sighed as he drifted off to sleep.
But then a loud crash woke him!
