An older photo that I never got around to posting.
A tiny Coneflower just emerging out of its bud stage.
There seems to be lots of tension in this little photo. Is it because it is facing left rather than right?
Maybe the serrated leaf parts are pushing the eye backwards, or are bright petals creating a wall, blocking our way into the center?
Maybe it is the combination of all three.

Went to a local airshow to take some shots for some friends and co-workers who are WW2 buffs. Hopefully they like my work as I sort thru the shots and they find a place for my work in their publication and website,

Arnos Park - under the Piccadilly line arches - where I was asked why I was taking photos and asked for my name and address by a Community Support Police officer . . . these things just aren't black and white

Another view of the new (it opened last year) King's Cross Tunnel Light Wall, which is 90m long.
The left side (as viewed here) is entirely composed of LED lighting panels. They are capable of producing any colour...but while I was there, they remained resolutely white.
You can see another shot I took of this, here:

Network Rail’s amazing modular point carriers, marshalled behind 66089 and forming 6X51, DB Cargo’s 0625 Millerhill - Carlisle Yard departmental, skirts the Lowther Hills at Elvanfoot on 2 June 2021.
The random point 49.46811295 7.79842001 was not in the woods as I had expected. My selection criterion for the second random point project was "all points within 5 km and all in the woods". This point was at a fence in a muddy meadow with lots of animal tracks around. I have no idea what the fence protects and against what danger. Wild boars maybe? But a pleasand spot on a pleasant evening.
A second day of route learning on 88008 happened on the 13th March 2018. Working 0Z08, 1020 Millerhill - Niddrie South - Millerhill - Prestonpans Loop - Millerhill - Niddrie South - Millerhill - Prestonpans Loop - Millerhill - York ( via various loops on the way back to York ) it is seen leaving the loop at Prestonpans on its first run to the loop. The second run to the loop was missed out but instead ran on the mainline and reversed heading back to Millerhill.
What is very interesting, which I never noticed till I downloaded this image, is the new set of points leading into the old coal plant for the now demolished Cockenzie Power Station. They haven't obviously been used yet , but will they ?
The last coal working out of Cockenzie Power Station was on March 9th 2013
