It seemed that a discarded sticker, that had become attached to a CrossRail billboard, was creating new narratives. I took two shots of this as I hurried down Oxford Street on the way back to work during a lunch break. The other version, which I previously uploaded was a closer shot with fewer details.
Walt Grace Vintage sells both new, preowned and vintage guitars, as well as preowned and vintage cars and motorcycles. It's an amazing collection not to be missed.
I just love it when the Valet parks my car right outside the front door of the restaurant. :) But this is not my car. I'm guessing that this is a 2021 Ferrari SF90 Stradale in color Verde Zeltweg with interior Cuoio. Here is a similar Ferrari.

"The SF90 Stradale is the first type-approved Ferrari to feature plug-in hybrid (PHEV) architecture, with a 90° V turbocharged engine that delivers 780 hp, supplemented by three electric motors with a maximum power of 220 hp. That brings the total power to a stunning figure of 1000 hp. The design too is futuristic: the front end, central section and rear have been completely redesigned, breaking the mould of the berlinettas of the last 20 years."

A splendid array of lovingly preowned garments and shoes to be had at a bargain price - the Sunday market at Vynohradiv in Ukraine on 23rd April 2017. The 06:10 service train 6603 from Kmil'nyk, with 750mm gauge Bo-Bo diesel-electric Tu2-034 up front, just arrived at the terminus 'station', and having already deposited its day-trippers who were eagerly hunting for that very special bargain only obtainable at the crack of dawn.

What is it about 35mm film that draws a seasoned photographer back into its clutches.
Digital is so much easier, you can take as many pictures as you want, limited only by the number of images that you can get onto your memory card, most cameras let you check the images on the built in screen at the time of capture, you can show your creations to anyone who wants to look at any point.
When you get home you start the download process, put the kettle on and when your hot drink is ready the photo's you took are there to be viewed, maybe hundreds of them, on the screen in front of you ready to be selected, rated and edited.
Film however is different, very different, you get 36 shots before you run out of space on your storage media, you cannot review them, you cannot show them to someone, you wait.
When you get home you still do a download but this time its a form or label, things you need to send your film off to a laboratory for them to process, print and scan, and you pay a princely sum for this to happen.
Even though film doesn't make any sense it is just such an enjoyable medium to use for photography, so after much soul search, much researching and peering into the depths of the piggy bank I decided to add a film camera to the kitbag.
This lovely preowned camera and lens combination is going to be my constant companion, my guess is that it will outlast me, it could become the family heirloom (joking).
I'll still be using digital but now have the option of film as well.
New fresh shutters, Skared's work looks mighty fine but i can't help thinking the old shop boards of "Across The Tracks" had more character! Of course they could never remove the security grills from the windows which was a bit of a pain!
I just received by mail a preowned Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM (huh!) objective and wanted to take some test shots (in spite of the slippery street). Everything seems to be OK.
This is a crop (ca. 1/6 of the original frame).
While living on Daisy Ave., we bought this preowned wagon c.1963 for use as a beater. We've been a two-car family since 1962 and still are. That's just the way we roll.

Anytime I'm on the road, my camera bag is there with me. This is my "junk/miscellaneous pocket", I assume we all have one. BTW, I use a LowePro Sling bag.
BTW, the pink paper is my copy of a back country hiking pass at Chaco Canyon.
This week marks the first week with new gear in-hand. I've added a preowned D750 w/28-300 lens from MPB to my D7200.
Cheers!
and HMM!
This is a story, about my Mustang: I bought it preowned a little over 6 year's ago. Now is the first time that I have had to have major repairs on it. The problems are: Ck Eng Light on, Crank POS Sensor, Timing Chain Guides Broken. Advised not to drive it, or I will screw up my engine. My regular garage not equipped to fix it, so. It is being towed from that garage to one about a block away. I checked the place out to make sure that it is a good place, and not some rinky dinky place. Have an appointment to have the job done. The Mustang is an 06, V6. 5 speed shift. I love to shift and hear that pony roar. :-) :-) :-)
I just received by mail a preowned Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM (huh!) objective and wanted to take some test shots (in spite of the slippery street). Everything seems to be OK.
This photo was shot wide open using the shortest focal length. Some light added in PS.

During the past decades I have learnt to love shooting macro photographs using manual focus objectives (plus extension tubes, bellows and reversing rings). Actually I haven't ever purchased an autofocus macro objective.
Then one day (in 2017/2018) I noticed at Evilbay a preowned but good looking Sony Alpha SEL30M35 30 mm F/3.5 E Objective for 175,00€ and I decided to make a try. (On those days brand new ones were sold for 200++ €.)
For a longer period I haven't published anything useful in Flickr. The next photos may contain something for a real DIY person.
Some two weeks ago I decided to buy from Evilbay a second hand objective, which seemed to be a rebranded Enna (Tele-Ennalyt 4.5/240mm) - interesting tube with enough diaphragm blades.
The seller's (from Blankenburg, Germany) description was "Gebraucht im super Zustand , sofort einsatzbereit , nur leichte Gebrauchsspuren". Some people have good imagination and/or weird sense of humour... If the price is 20€, you cannot expect nice condition.
So I decided to shoot some tests with a NEX body...
I just received by mail from Germany a preowned Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM (huh!) objective and wanted to take some test shots outdoors (in spite of the slippery street). Everything seems to be OK.
You will need red/cyan colored shades to see the stereoscopic effect. Get your 3D glasses for free!

This photo seems perfect for the first color of the Crayola Challenge at DollyDaily.
SBB Vanessa was the first FR I ever got, way back in 2005. Never been a Vanessa fan, but I love this girl to the moon and back. I still remember the feeling when I deboxed her, being wowed by that sweater she came in.
She was preowned but in pristine condition and came complete at $72-ish. SBB Vanessa had an eye condition which made her less desirable to collectors and the only reason she had a price I could afford back then. Even $72 for a doll was a guilt trip, and I did not mind one bit that I had to touch up her eyes. Her body has not changed color to date and I am thankful for that--I don't want to ever change anything else about this girl.
Did I mention I LOVE her?
Beneath the converging clouds of early spring, CCT 1501 leads the northbound CV01 along welded steel in Morada on Holy Thursday.
In the 1970s, Traction Company management pushed for the procurement of ribbon rail to improve the physique of the shortline. Top brass first brought the idea to the attention of ATSF-WP-SP representatives (each carrier possessed a thirty-three percent stake in ownership of the CCT) at an operating committee meeting. The triumvirate was convinced that the concept was sound. The three Class I's reached an agreement to supply the Traction Company with preowned continuous welded rail on a yearly basis. In reality, this proposal resulted in just a lone unit train of continuous welded rail in 1976. The train ran to milepost 6 where approximately 2,800 feet of handed-down high iron was set down. Regrettably for CCT, the operating committee called off future rail replacement ventures, labeling the project too expensive.

A recent addition to the Sanders double deck fleet, is this former Newbury & District Optare (East Lancs) bodied Scania N270UD Omnidekka type W26 SCL which is posed for my camera in the Heath Drive Depot Yard at Holt. It is yet to enter service and when this shot was taken, had not been allocated a fleet number, although I am reliably informed that it will be number 134.
Originally new to Nottingham City Transport in September 2009 with fleet number 974 and registration YT59 OZP, it subsequently passed to Reading Buses where it joined their Newbury & District operation with fleet number 865. As we can see it now carries a Sanders cherished plate W26 SCL.
This is not only the first Scania N270UD type in the Sanders fleet, but also the first East Lancs Omnidekka built under Optare ownership. In recent times a number of Scania Omnidekkas have been acquired from either Reading or Nottingham, this one having previously served with both. As far as I can tell, it is Sanders first preowned double deck type to arrive at Holt since May 2018.
Maidstone & District 5733, a former Greater Manchester Leyland Atlantean with Northern Counties standard body at the Queens Monument in Maidstone, April 1991. This bus was numbered 7652 in the GMPTE fleet and was new in 1976. The bus was last seen in a dilapidated condition at Amberlee's premises in Strood in 2006 and was intended for preservation at one point.

Following tender wins in Greater Manchester after deregulation, Ribble purchased a number of these ECW bodied Daimler Fleetlines from South Yorkshire PTE.
They were split between the recently reopened Bolton depot and Hulme Hall Road, Manchester, and were mainly used on school services won on tender from GMPTE.
1712 is seen leaving Bolton depot in readiness to take up an afternoon journey from Cannon Slade school to Harwood then Bolton.
Another recent addition to the Sanders double deck fleet, is former Newbury & District Optare (East Lancs) bodied Scania N270UD Omnidekka type number 135 - W27 SCL which was posed for my camera in the Heath Drive Depot Yard at Holt prior to being sent away for repainting. Having returned from repaint into the latest double deck livery and had the vinyls added week commencing 11th May 2025, the eagle eyed will note from the rear nearside panel, that when this shot was taken, it had already started to turn yellow!
Originally new to Nottingham City Transport in September 2009 with fleet number 975 and registration YT59 OZR, it subsequently passed to Reading Buses where it joined their Newbury & District operation with fleet number 866. As we can see it now carries a Sanders cherished plate W27 SCL.
Vehicles 134 & 135 are not only the first Scania N270UD types in the Sanders fleet, but also the first East Lancs Omnidekkas built under Optare ownership. In recent times a number of Scania Omnidekkas have been acquired from either Reading or Nottingham, these two having previously served with both. As far as I can tell, they are Sanders first preowned double deck types to arrive at Holt since May 2018.
Stansted Transit operated a motley collection of buses from a base at Stansted Airport, mostly in the liveries of their previous operators.
Former Arriva London Leyland Olympians were a favoured weapon of choice and the former L228 is seen here at the airport base looking pretty much the same as it did in the capital.
Volvo Unvi Urbis seen here operating a Line 3 service. This vehicle has a wrap promoting Miramar Shopping Centre like other vehicles in this fleet. This vehicle is unusual being a Volvo as the normal choice for this operator is MAN Buses this one is a preowned vehicle having seen previous service in Granada.

Canon 450D + Tokina 12-24mm weights over 1 kg which is too much to carry around Europe for tourist shots. But in domestic use it is (often, sometimes etc) a fair good tool.
This photo of the camera was shot with Canon 40D + EF20-200 mm - a much heavier combination.

Do you guys think this glass will give me wide enough compositions?
I'm waiting for a chance to try it out.
Kinda cheap since i bought this preowned.
And, the hexagonal bokeh of the 105 Micro is always a delight to look at.

Another enthusiastic post deregulation operator of former London Routemasters was Reading Transport, taking just over twenty standard RM's and a solitary RCL.
The former RM2034 is seen in February 1988 looking smart in the Southend blue and white livery.
Seen at one of the bookstalls near the Tate Modern along the Embankment in London. i inverted the image as it makes the books look like a tall pile which i found more interesting. Used the polaroid preset curve on Picnik with 35% desaturation.
HBW and HWWW to you all
Camera's OIS is pretty good for stationary hand held video and photos. For video where one is walking and filming, it's good, but you really need a gimbal. I got a sweet preowned bundle on ebay with a gimbal, smartrig cage, ext. mics, and the Sony RX100VII. Seller was 100% rated so I crossed my fingers, took a deep breath and got lucky: (knock on wood) No troubles so far.
This is a Ferrari 488 GTB rear view.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrari_488
The Ferrari 488 (Type F142M) is a mid-engine sports car produced by the Italian automobile manufacturer Ferrari. The car replaced the 458, being the first mid-engine Ferrari to use a turbocharged V8 since the F40. It was succeeded by the Ferrari F8.
The car is powered by a 3.9-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, smaller in displacement but generating a higher power output than the 458's naturally aspirated engine. The 488 GTB was named "The Supercar of the Year 2015" by car magazine Top Gear, as well as becoming Motor Trend's 2017 "Best Driver's Car".[7] Jeremy Clarkson announced the 488 Pista as his 2019 Supercar of the Year.[8]

W Gash of Newark on the Nottinghamshire/Lincolnshire border were the first UK independent to take former London AEC Routemaster's, obtaining a trio of the type just after deregulation in 1986.
The former RM1990, seen here as Gash RM19 in typical London attire, with only new fleetnames giving the game away that its days in the Capital are over.
It briefly operated for Lincolnshire Road Car following Traction Groups acquisition of the Gash business in 1989, but was quickly sold on to East Yorkshire who would operate it until 1995. It would then pass to Reading Mainline, an enthusiastic operator of the type, and survives to this day, preserved in the livery of its final operator.
Although London Transport found their DMS class Daimler Fleetlines to be troublesome, fleets up and down the country welcomed them with open arms when they were offered for sale via Ensign, the Purfleet based dealer.
A number of National Bus Company fleets took them, including Wilts & Dorset, as typified by the former DMS2225, which by now was operating as 1913 in the Bournemouth area
This one is a Metro Cammell built example, recognisable bu the stepped emergency door, Park Royal buses having the beading carrying straight across.
