The Gyosei Art Trail on the Grand Union Canal in Milton Keynes.
Colourful bench on the towpath by Jeremy Turner. The art depicts wildlife found in and around the canal.
It was about 95 degrees even for night racing at Church Hill Downs. The horses were hosed off immediately after the race right on the track. A water truck came out onto the track, but the dirt stuck to the sweat of the horse nonetheless,
Looking up Post Alley, which runs between the main streets in downtown Seattle, from Pike Place Public Market south.
This picture was taken as part of a tour round the city of Seattle with Shutter Tours, who specialise in guiding budding photographers to points of interest and showing them the sights in a new way.
My guide Kristi was most helpful and showed me a lot of places I wouldn’t have seen otherwise and, as I was the only person on the tour this day, she was able to help me with various things. I even took some pictures of people – which is most unlike me.
The tour was really good and if you’re ever in Seattle and fancy spending three hours or so getting to see some of the more unusual sights, as well as some of the better-known ones, check out www.shuttertours.com – ooh, I sound like an advert!

As I sit here...
Thinking on my music, my music journey. Two hard fought serious years. God has blessed me greatly. I've been taught by one whom I consider a great in the game as well as other areas Charron Monaye. Receive my first feature from ML Realrandbmusic when no one would chance me cause I was new! Had Tony Deejay Brown aka Dj Truuf spin me when no one would play my music cause I had no buzz. My family support me Thomas Dixon Audrey Parker @clairessa Walker Zacara Dixon Rashida Fairley when no one would listen. My Marine Corps family held me down. Jesse Sandoval Christopher Milton and many more! My first label chance 912 James Street Productions thank you Cymande Coburn

I'm bicycling east on Camelback. It's about a quarter after 12am and cold enough so I can see my breath if I puff hard. It's very nice. But then I hear a, bang, Bang and then a moment passes and another, Bang. The third one sounded closer. I glance back wondering if someone is killing someone or if I'm just paranoid. It could be a car backfiring. But a car, east-bound, slows down on the street a few lanes away from me. BANG! It's so loud it hurts my ears. I'm not sure what just happens. The car pulls away, but stops at the red light on 16th and Camelback where evangelists gather to scream at all the sinners. I'm pretty sure I was just shot at. That sound is fucking scary. It all around me and wouldn't leave. My lungs flatten and I take in some air. I ride towards the CVS and go inside to call the police. Maybe they had already got some similar reports. They hadn't. Some officers, show up while the 911 operator is talking to me about the car and drivers or driver. "No, It was too dark," I say. I don't know anything about cars anyway. "It was brown, boxy and old." If I knew more about cars at the time I would have said It looked like a brown Buick Regal, maybe '82.
I hope it rains more.
The only physical remnant of the Post Oak community, this cemetery began as the burial ground for the family of Isham McMillin, who acquired land in this part of Bell County in 1855. The oldest marked grave, that of McMillin's daughter Elizabeth, dates from 1857. Several graves, marked by piles of stones or illegible markers, may predate Elizabeth's burial.
A large proportion of graves mark the burial sites of infants and children, testament to the harshness of frontier life as Anglo settlers moved into the area. Buried here are members of a number of pioneer families, including the Edwards, Fulton, Sinclair and Ezell families. Isham McMillin, who died in 1861, is buried here, as is another McMillin daughter, Mary (1852-1864).
In 1873, Sarah McMillin sold two acres of land to the deacons of Mountain Home Baptist Church for the purpose of building a church and schoolhouse. The mountain home church came to be called Post Oak Baptist Church, as did the school and community. The school consolidated with the Center Lake School District in 1916 and later became part of the Holland public school system. The Post Oak Baptist Church continued to meet until a 1952 fire destroyed the church building and the congregation disbanded.
Burials continue to take place in the graveyard, and the Post Oak Cemetery Association, organized in 1951, cares for the cemetery, which stands as a reminder of early Bell County settlement. (2001) (Marker No. 12512)
