The Blue Angels practicing for the upcoming air show in Vero Beach. I used to photograph them, and the Thunderbirds, from outside Andrews AFB every year. I'm always amazed. I have yet, though, to actually attend an airshow. Maybe next time.

Hoverfly (Eristalis tenax) hovering just above the bright yellow disc florets of an Oxeye Daisy. Commonly mistaken for honeybees due to their convincing Batesian mimicry, these insects are superb aerial acrobats capable of moving forwards, backwards, and remaining completely stationary mid-air. They play a vital role as secondary pollinators in gardens and meadows across the UK, moving swiftly from bloom to bloom throughout the summer months.
Tugs SD Independent and SD Bountiful putting the finishing touches to the berthing of Type 23 frigate HMS Portland (F79) in HMNB Portsmouth. She was ushered into the harbour and manoeuvred quickly and skilfully into her berth to enable rapid precautionary medical attention for a number of personnel following accidental chemical contamination of the drinking water purification system. According to the Royal Navy the next day, all those taken to hospital were expected to make a full recovery, with the majority already having been discharged.
The practise it takes to get these tricks perfect. I see these guys practising for hours at a time.

In the summer of 1968 my family was returning from a vacation in Arizona, As was usual, we always found an excuse to travel close to a railhead. It's a warm late evening in the desert at the then open and working working El Garces Santa Fe station in Needles CA. We were up late to see the westbound San Francisco Chief make it's station stop here. My dad took this photo of the ATSF station clock. It has always amazed me how, back in those days, time was the most critical thing to be measured. My grandfather was a conductor for the Southern Pacific for 43 years and always carried a pocket watch with him that had to be inspected and certified by the railroad to be accurate to the second. This clock in Needles was no different, with it's notification that it is officially 2 seconds slow. Oh how times have changed.

First off, I would like to say that I am very behind with uploading photos, and it's only going to get worse as I start my new job in the next few weeks. But anyways, it's the middle of the night in Pewaukee,WI as CP 581 sits tied down with a now solo NS EMD SD80MAC, a recrew showed up at about 2300, took the second unit to eastwards to Rondout, and left the Mac here dead in the water. Even as of now, this train has yet to move an inch

Gallarus Oratory, a 1200 year old building on the Dingle Peninsula which has survived perfectly apart from a slight sagging of the roof. I loved the precision of the window and door lining up like this...
HTT!
This is probably the most precisely straight partline I've ever done. It looks like stock, if stock scalps came with alpaca.

Very clean looking cutaway on an old wreck.
Different wreck at Pin Mill in Suffolk, Fascinating place with loads to look at I've only been here twice once tide in once tide out and took 3 different cameras over the course of two trips.
Looking at the 16 mega pixel Pentax K5 llS, a 24 mega pixel Nikon D7100 and the full frame Nikon D800E.
If anyone knows of any similar places to this in Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk please leave a comment I would love to visit all of them.
