Active Assignment Weekly: Fill the Frame
My mischievous, little boy, Patches. Unlike my other cats, he's always unfazed by my presence, even when I'm taking photos of him. Liked it more in black and white.
Nancy: -Hello I'm "Nancy in the city". You're sooo cute!
Patch: -Hehee... Hi! I'm Patch the Brave Knight. You look like Godzilla with your big legs and mini arms!
Nancy: -How rude!
Patch: -But it's a compliment! I love godzillas, I even have a baby one as a pet. He's over there -Yooohoo Zillo! Say Hi to Miss Nancy-, I'm teaching him how to chase asian hornets. They are a real threat to biodiversity, you see.
Nancy: -That's cool! What a great Brave Knight you are! Can you help me find the nearest city?
Patch: -I'm afraid I'm really bad at geography, Milady. But I can tell that you are on the famous DuDidier street, it goes from here to there, both inside and outside.
Nancy: -Ah. I think I heard that already.
Patch: -I love your outfit! It would look great on Zillo. Can I borrow it sometime?
Nancy: -¡absolutamente no!

I'm so fond of Patch the Brave Knight that I can't bring myself to change her outfit. I might need another Patch who will be wearing it all the time (and possibly build an army of brave knights lol). After all we never know when we'll need the help of a Brave Knight.
The girls were playing outside amongst the flowers one late afternoon. They looked so adorable in their flowery dresses, that Veronica, Patch's mum, abandoned the dishes and went out with the camera.
Mum: Girls!
Patch: Yes mum?
Pepper: Yes Mrs Wetherby!
Mum: I only have one photo left on this film. *Holding up the camera.* So please stand still and smile for me.
Patch: Will do.
Pepper: Of course Mrs Wetherby.
They lined up and just as Veronica hit the button, Patch went topsy-turvy.
Mum: Oh Patch!
Patch: Did you get it? Did you get it?! *Excited*
Pepper: Haha, bravo! I wish I could do that.
Mum: *sigh* Yes my little rascal, I got it. But I do want to get your pretty little face in a photo at some point.
Patch: Sure mum. I smiled though. Pepper, I will teach you how to do it, but it takes all you got and you will get dirty.
Pepper: Smashing!

Pepper is trying so hard to become as mischievous as Patch, but she has a long way to go.

I wanted to put into words, the scent of failure and pain, I wanted to quote a well read author, about love and enduring the rain,
My brilliant tapestry of colors, laid out for all to see, then I wanted to point out the patches, the rips and tears inside of me.
I wanted to cover you with it, to show you my warmth and desire, I wanted to protect you from the rain, instead give you passion and desire,
I needed to prove that my inside is as beautiful as it can be, unfiltered and treated gently, with time I am sure you will see,
I put my self down on the ground, only to see myself fly once again, I sought for lost words I messed up and gathered them into a bin,
A box of precious things, they are a steady and sure growth within, in lies my heart, my self confidence and my poetry pen,
I wanted to share my self, show you my tattered and broken soul, how it glimmers and sparkles wonders, more than ever before,
I give you my peace and esteem, to believe in the best of all around, for you too are a miracle, you are a treasure to be be found,
I thank you for treating me so lovely, for giving this healing heart a hand, I am forever grateful and am not worthy, even if you shall say that I am,
I press my lips against yours so gently, I wrap my hand around you so tight, for the path ahead is unknown, but it is something that just feels right
... many other colours were also on offer to the photographer and sightseer. But it was the mid afternoon sunlight that these particular blossoms really shone.
Yellow Patches Mushrooms grow solitary or in groups on the ground in the summer to the fall, in broad-leaved and mixed woods. Noted for preferring hemlock
Norfolk Southern's former Conrail SD60I 5651 was sitting in Canadian Pacific's Bensenville Yard in 2007. In the distance, a former Soo Line GP40 still wearing its banditized Milwaukee Road colors was going about its day.
The NS 6761 has long since lost its blue and white paint scheme and the SOO 2057 went on to LTEX as their 3010 and current whereabouts per them interwebs more or less has it leased to the Kettle Falls International Railway in British Columbia.

A re visit last night to wild flower patch to see if there had been any changes, and yes the poppies have sprung up a bit more .
Thinking of all those poor people who lost their lives today in Tunisia:(.
I think this is Yellow Patch (Amanita flavoconia) mushroom.
Photo taken hand-held. Amazingly, I was able to align and focus stack 9 photos, one of which had to be manually moved and masked. Then, I used a touch of an AI brush to clean up the mess between the focus and out of focus layers. HSS!
CSX local Y-217 was working the west end of Winans Yard in West Baltimore back in 1992. Former Western Maryland Railway GP40 3798 and Baltimore and Ohio GP38 4814 were both looking ragged but nonetheless awesome.
The WM motor went on as Indiana Southern 4041 and the B&O geep is now a rebuilt GP38-3 working for the Wichita Tillman & Jackson Railway after a stint in the lease fleet and work for the Union Pacific.
..on flight back from Aberdeen this week. Always like the window seats to watch the clouds flying by..and the colours on terra firma.
I&M Rail Link SD40 203, built in 1966 for the Pennsylvania Railroad as their 6069, was leading SD45 382, a former Seaboard Coast Line motor, on train 264 on the Elgin Subdivision at B12 Interlocking in Franklin Park in 1998.
The patched 203 was still wearing Conrail colors and was passed on to the ICE when they took over in 2002.
It has since been scrapped.
