Passing parade.
It has stood the test of time, however the years are really taking their toll on the old shed. No one knows how much longer it will remain before it collapses and is lost forever in the passing parade.

At Outer Harbour Rothesay, Isle of Bute. MV Hebridean Princess arrives (right), as MV Bute departs ...
MV Hebridean Princess is a cruise ship operated by Hebridean Island Cruises. She started life as the MacBrayne car ferry and Royal Mail Ship, initially RMS then MV Columba, based in Oban for the first 25 years of her life, carrying up to 600 passengers, and 50 cars, between the Scottish islands.
She underwent a major refit at George Prior Engineering in Great Yarmouth in 1989, emerging as the luxury cruise ship, MV Hebridean Princess. She began operating on 26 May 1989 and provides luxury cruises around the Western Isles of Scotland. More recently, itineraries have been extended to include Ireland, the Orkney and Shetland islands, and the Norwegian Fjords. Refitted in luxury she carries 49 guests, and 38 crew.

The MV Bute is the seventh Clyde ship to bear the name Bute and Calmac's first ferry built outside the UK since the MV Suilven in 1974.

After trials, she entered service on 1 August 2005.

Looked up as I walked along the beach at Westhaven and saw this Snipe flying along into the wind, which made it slightly easier than usual to get a few photos.

This novel is a masterpiece...passing refers to the practice of fairer skinned mulattos "passing" as white...but this book is about humanity
...amazing that this mixed race author had so much insight into the human condition in 1929 when this was published!

I've just stepped off a Metra train in Riverside, Illinois, and had just enough time to get this grab shot of a westbound BNSF intermodal train on the Chicago-Aurora raceway. The Metra train will probably catch and pass the intermodal train at some point.
At the riverside in 1901. The group of young girls at left are seen passing John Atkinson's Pleasure Boat Hotel just downstream from the Continental. The former hotel still exists as two attached houses but the boat house on the right of the property with the decorative barge boards and finials has since been demolished. Also of interest is the steel girder railway bridge seen here under construction. The bridge would open to rail traffic in 1902 and was part of the new formations on the west side of the station. Directly behind the young boy seated on the bank is John Crook's boat hire pontoon, where for a couple of pennies you could hire one of a fleet of rowing boats and spend a pleasant hour or two messing about on the river.

Color on it's way out as "Passing Seasons" change the landscapes around us. A friend once said to think of this as the beautiful colors are just going to sleep for a few months and will return to brighten our world once again. Talk about the ever positive thinking type.
Often, as part of a their courtship ritual, a pair passes an object (in this case, a cherry) back and forth from beak to beak. The exchange went on for quite a while until the fruit began to fall apart and bird on the right swallowed it. It was very cute and affectionate to watch....I wish they had been lower and closer....lol

Seen here on Union Street, it still carries Highland Country Buses legals.
Pewsey Station dates to 1862 and witnesses the passage of 59202 on a Whatley Quarry to Dagenham Dock aggregates train.
Still a surprise, in this era of mega-ports, that cargo vessels venture this far up the Thames (presumably heading to Tilbury docks).
At the date of uploading this photo (27 November 2016), the vessel is currently in the Carribean, heading from Porsoja, Ecuador (via the Panama Canal, presumably) to Dover, UK.
