Unbelievably, this tower of stones on Dawlish beach remained standing, despite the wildness of the weather!
"Precision engineering is a sub discipline of electrical engineering, software engineering, electronics engineering, mechanical engineering, and optical engineering concerned with designing machines, fixtures, and other structures that have exceptionally high tolerances, are repeatable, and are stable over time".

In this world of Precision Scheduled Railroading, the current class one's miss opportunities to advertise themselves in a positive light instead of trying to do damage control (such that Norfolk Southern has been doing ever since the East Palestine derailment, Union Pacific with constant service problems......the list can go on and on). But I suppose in this day of watching every dollar for the benefit of shareholder value small things like that get overlooked. Case in point. Here is CSXT train I003 crossing Doodletown Bight from Iona Island to Bear Mountain behind a pair of matching Dark Future GE's leading a solid block of Amazon containers. Predacessor New York Central and even Penn Central did photo shoots and television commercials of the Pacemaker, Flexi-vans and multi-level auto rack trains in the Hudson valley. It's a natural photo prop for a positive spin of how commerce moves across the country, and the world. You never realize how big a customer is until you see just about an entire train loaded with their equipment. Makes you wonder how many people realize when they "point and click" that part of the journey their package made was on rail?
Happy Thursday, my friends! I hope that your week is going well, so far!
Thank you so much for stopping by and for your kind comments! They are very much appreciated!

Native Aussie bird, the Galah, comes in for landing.
I was amazed at this bird's skills (and all birds really) in judging angle, speed, tragectory in an instant to make a smooth touch down.
This Galah was on its own, which is a bit sad as they mate for life and do not repartner, so a lone Galah cuts a lonely figure.

It's hard to tell where one plane ends and the other begins. I keep saying this is the last Blue Angels shot I will upload...but I keep finding more. My daughter has accused me of using AI to generate my photos. I swear to God I have not!
This was a diffiult one. The camera wouldn't auto-focus and she kept moving! And if I didn't get her in the black the reflection it was too dim!
This was my bus ride to WalMart this morning! Sometimes you just gotta have cornflakes for breakfast!
:D

Two guys going straight. One of them upside down above the other. The third doing loop rolls around their tails. Basic trick? I don't think so...

View On Black Take flight and view it large!
My favorite orientation of the track... the knife edge. This is performed by having the tip of the wing be perpendicular to the surface of the water. Seeing the planes shift into this position in the blink of an eye was intense!
Gradually getting to the plane shots. There are lots of them to go through...
Featured in Flickr Explore June 3rd, 2008
Some literal interpretations of the challenge focused on a target while some others used meticulous lines or gravity to illustrate precision.
The Flickr Friday Group Pool was particularly spectacular for the theme #Precision and we've selected precisely fifteen great shots for the Precision Selection Gallery.

My newest addition to my collection, the brand new TWSBI Precision in 1.1mm Stub.
The design is nice and smooth with some striations along the cap and barrel.
The barrel posts on the silver twisting mechanism. It securely seats deep into the cap holding tightly with o-rings located on the twisting mechanism.
Operating the piston is a super smooth operation with very little resistance to operate. To remove the cap from the pen, you must turn the pen 5/6th of a full rotation to completely remove and completely sealed, which is a very short travel range, awesome for quick remove and replacement of the pen cap.
The design of the clip has strong resistance and not much bounce, but the design looks good wrapping half way around the pen.
Despite being an all metal pen, it remains very light weighing 31 grams with a full load of ink. It measures out to be 140mm capped, 175mm posted, 125mm unposted.
The pen sports an ink window to see the remaining ink levels. The nib is the same found in the 580AL Diamond. The flow and writing characteristics are exactly like my 580 AL in 1.1mm Stub. I have Robert Oster Fire and Ice loaded up in the pen and it is a very wet flow that has great line variation. #twsbiprecision #fountainpen #fountainpenreview #newrelease
This was shot with two lights, with an Alien Bee overhead with a shoot thru umbrella with a SB800 directly to the right of the pen.
