NS 6908 sits on the old Pennsy mainline, which is now a MOW track just east of the PORT interlocking. The old PRR signal bridge can be seen in the background.
Cultural heritage: graveyard from Eichem (Ninove) with old gravestones (date from early to mid 1900 ties).
I'd taken a few indifferent shots in the flat light and was wondering what to do with them. Thanks to We're Here, pareidolia to the rescue!
I see the Lorax! and an owl. And a couple of gargoyles.

80/365. 21st March. Not so much old to me (I've only had him a couple years), but still old, I need to get out and take some good old fashioned film. Last time I used this camera though, the whole roll came back blank, which was a bit of a waste of money. At least you know where you are with digital. And the light meter doesn't work so it's a bit of a guessing game. But still, there's something about the old camera's that the new one's don't have isn't there? And I love that len's. Until recently, it was firmly attached to the E-PL3 via an adapter. It has gorgeous bokeh. But it was manual focus and now I have a dedicated lens and autofocus.
And aptly today is my dad's birthday, he was a keen and very good photographer, and would have been 70 today.
I'm guessing these fence posts marked out the sidings of Markham Main colliery. 66747 trundles along the South Yorkshire Joint line at Sandall Beet, Cantley/Rossington with the 6F72 Immingham-Cottam, 12.1.18.

On the day we visited the geyser, the next eruption was predicted to erupt at 12 noon. We positioned ourselves in the best place to take photographs and waited. Sure enough the geyser erupted at almost exactly twelve noon. I put up two images to show the difference in the eruption within a matter of a few seconds.

From Wikipedia -
Old Faithful is a cone geyser located in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming, United States. Old Faithful was named in 1870 during the Washburn-Langford-Doane Expedition and was the first geyser in the park to receive a name. It is a highly predictable geothermal feature; since 2000, it has erupted every 44 to 125 minutes.
More than 1,000,000 eruptions have been recorded. Harry Woodward first described a mathematical relationship between the duration and intervals of the eruptions in 1938. Old Faithful is not the tallest or largest geyser in the park; those titles belong to the less predictable Steamboat Geyser. The reliability of Old Faithful can be attributed to the fact that it is not connected to any other thermal features of the Upper Geyser Basin.
Eruptions can shoot 3,700 to 8,400 US gallons (14,000 to 32,000 L) of boiling water to a height of 106 to 185 feet (32 to 56 m) lasting from 1 1⁄2 to 5 minutes. The average height of an eruption is 145 feet (44 m). Intervals between eruptions can range from 35 to 120 minutes, averaging 66.5 minutes in 1939, slowly increasing to an average of 90 minutes apart today, which may be the result of earthquakes affecting subterranean water levels. The disruptions have made earlier mathematical relationships inaccurate, but have actually made Old Faithful more predictable in terms of its next eruption.

the Old Melbourne Gaol was built in the mid-1800s, it dominated the Melbourne skyline as a symbol of authority. Inside the Gaol, dangerous criminals were held alongside petty offenders, the homeless and the mentally ill.
Between 1842 and its closure in 1929 the gaol was the scene of 133 hangings including Australia’s most infamous citizen, the bushranger Ned Kelly.

The Old Windmill (1828) in Brisbane, South Queensland, Australia, was initially used to mill grain for the early Moreton Bay colony. In 1861 the structure was converted into an observatory and signal station.
This moth is massive. Much bigger than typical garden moths and easily as large as an Oak Eggar. It flew into the house while I was setting up my Badger camera and it looked and sounded like a small drone moving slowly and methodically through the house, scanning each room. But what a curious name; Old Lady. Moses Harris in the Aurelian (1766) called it the Grave Brocade, and there are a number of moths called Brocade that resemble the rich fabric of the same name. This moth resembles the black outfit worn by Queen Victoria when she was in mourning, though the name Grave Brocade was first used 200 years earlier. The name Old Lady is an extension of this funereal idea as widows wearing sombre colours were usually old. Though the Dutch call this moth the Black Orphan (Zwart Weeskind). Its scientific name is beautifully alliterative; Mormo maura. Mormo was a mythical creature of Ancient Greece that would bite misbehaving children. Maura is an inhabitant of Mauritania, a Moor, like Shakespeare's Othello. But it wasn't named maura for its dark colouration as Linnaeus gave Mauritania as the type locality. In Britain it is not especially numerous but occurs throughout Britain, petering out in the north.
An old footbridge over the Clunie Burn, near Glenshee in the Scottish Highlands. As you can see I sent my daughter over first to test it was safe lol.
