I fired this loco the day before and at this point the boiler pressure was telling me that I had not properly filled the back corners of that wide firebox! No such problem here as black smoke at the chimney shows all is well.

 

thanks for all views, faves and comments ... :o)

I've been studying recent developments in the whole AI/Midjourney technology thing, and discovered a serious problem: some of my images here on Flickr have been used to "train image-generation AI".

 

There's a site you can use to find out if any of your work has been used to train the Laion-5B and Laion-400M image datasets: haveibeentrained.com I have found my photographs reproduced in whole, clearly without my permission and in violation of my Intellectual Property Rights.

Class Action lawsuits are ongoing to prevent unauthorized use of people's work, because clearly there need to be some rules about what can and cannot be used to train these datasets. You may want to look to see if any of YOUR photos are used in this way.

 

I'm contacting management at Flickr to find out what my options are. ALL of my images here on Flickr are marked as Copyrighted, and no unauthorized use of them is permitted. I'm curious to see how Flickr responds to this problem. I'm ready to permanently pull the plug on my Flickr account if I am not satisfied with the outcome. @flickr

 

Until there is some sort of resolution of this problem, either through class action lawsuits or Flickr safeguarding members work from misappropriation, I will only post a blank grey square every day, indefinitely.

Het zand zit nog op de hoed . Een gloednieuwe vliegenzwam.

 

Ik heb problemen met het opladen van foto's . Ze zijn niet te zien en ik krijg alleen het vraagteken in het midden.

 

Ook kan ik vaak geen commentaren geven en komt die vervelende panda weer in beeld.

Cuando llegaron los castellanos a la región de Mesoamérica encontraron muchas riquezas y bienes que deseaban comerciar con Europa, pero establecieron un sistema por el cual todo producto era llevado primero a un puerto español y luego era conducido a otras partes del continente europeo. Esto molestó mucho a los comerciantes de otros países, sobre todo de Holanda, Francia e Inglaterra y algunos navegantes decidieron apropiarse de muchos de los bienes que eran transportados sin pagar por los productos, éstos eran los llamados bucaneros y piratas.

Así, fue construido el castillo de San Felipe en la desembocadura del lago de Izabal en el río Dulce, la principal salida de bienes producidos en el Reino de Guatemala hacia España.

En el período hispánico al istmo de Centro América y Chiapas se le conocía como Reino de Guatemala y al lago de Izabal como Golfo Dulce. Hacia 1595, debido a incursiones de piratas el entonces Presidente de la Audiencia, Francisco de Sandé, escribió al monarca para informar de seis incursiones de bucaneros. Sandé narraba “trataré de ver si en el Golfo Dulce puede haber remedio” en contra de la presencia de navegantes no españoles. Un año después, dice Sandé, para cobrar impuestos ya se había construido un torreón redondo, a unos 15 metros sobre el nivel del lago, en un promontorio del lado noreste del lago de Izabal, en su parte más angosta, además allí se guardaban algunos productos. El 1 de noviembre de 1596, bucaneros ingleses asaltaron la torre y robaron cueros que se iban a embarcar a España y dañaron el edificio.

Durante el siglo XVII el comercio entre el Reino de Guatemala y España se estancó por el declive naval de España y otros problemas económicos, lo que causó una crisis en el Reino de Guatemala, por eso el comercio por el Golfo Dulce disminuyó mucho.

A mediados de esa centuria, en 1651, el Presidente interino de la Audiencia, Antonio de Lara y Mongrovejo, ordenó que se construyera un terraplén en el antiguo torreón y le dio el nombre del rey español, así fue conocido como San Felipe.

Eran tiempos de recuperación económica, un nuevo producto se introducía en el mercado europeo, el añil, que se producía en la región de Escuintla hasta El Salvador. Éste se empacaba en Chiquimula y se llevaba a embarcar al Golfo Dulce.

Para mejorar las defensas en el viejo torreón, en 1669 el ingeniero Martín de Andújar visitó San Felipe y lo describió como “cubo redondo de diez o doce varas de diámetro, cubierto de paja, con los parapetos de tablas bien maltratados, con siete piezas en cabalgadas y otras tres en el suelo, junto al mismo cubo, con su parapeto hecho por el castellano Claudio Pérez de Lorenzana”.

Sin embargo, las obras formales de reconstrucción fueron iniciadas por orden del Presidente Jacinto Barrios y Leal, el 15 de febrero de 1688, por el ingeniero militar Andrés Ortiz de Urbina, quien tenía encargo del monarca de proceder al trazo de los planes de las fortificaciones del Reino de Guatemala. La obra que se emprendió en San Felipe duró cerca de siete meses. La transformación realizada en el castillo, desde entonces es prácticamente la que se ha conservado hasta la fecha y la que se puede visitar.

En el siglo XVIII otros puertos se hicieron más visitados por las embarcaciones y la caída de las exportaciones del añil, a finales de esa centuria hicieron que el Golfo Dulce perdiera importancia económica. En el siglo XIX Santo Tomás de Castilla, primero, y Puerto Barrios después, fueron los puertos de entrada y salida de productos por vía marítima, por lo que el Castillo perdió para siempre su importancia estratégica y quedó como recuerdo de otros tiempos.

Debido a su atractivo turístico, el Castillo de San Felipe está a cargo del Instituto Guatemalteco de Turismo, pero recientemente la estructura sufrió varios daños por las visitas constantes de turistas, por lo que el Instituto de Antropología e Historia participó en un proyecto de restauración en 2001 y ahora está abierto otra vez.

Deep in the Animas River Canyon, a Silverton Mixed Train behind D&RGW #473 charges north with some loads for the residents and businesses in Silverton, passing through a section of line just south of Cascade, called "Cement Wall" or "Cement Fill" (MP 476.7).

 

Historically, the old D&RGW Silverton Line has been a tough stretch of railroad to maintain. Running close to a riverbed at the bottom of a very steep canyon, slides and washouts have been a problem since the railroad was first built in the early 1880s, and those problems persist even in 2020. The spot you see here was pretty well wiped out during a flash flood on the Animas in 1970, back when the D&RGW still owned the railroad. Given the vulnerability of the line at this location, the railroad elected to go beyond just refilling the spot and laying down new track. Instead, they built this fortified cement wall, which has since given this place its name. Fortunately, it appears to have stood the test of time rather well for the last 50 years. It ain't pretty, but at least the railroad no longer has problems here.

Fellas, there are like 1/2 dozen threads on this topic. The culprit is Android mobile, and the best guess is that Android bots are just going through people's entire libraries. Probably copying every image as they go, but if you're pro and click through to the details of where your pics are coming from, safe bet it's mobile/Android.

 

Not that you'd ever learn that from someone authoritative like, say, Flickr support....

although I think this bullshit isn't OK at all!

It's very very hard to add your photos to my favs at the moment. It sucks!

I have a serious problem with Cardinals - whenever I see one I am compelled to take a picture of them. The usual scenario is this: I'm in the middle of tracking another bird that I've been following for countless minutes, waiting for it to show itself. Then along comes this beautiful Cardinal to distract me and it works. Of course as soon as I go to shoot the Cardinal the other bird comes out in the open for a second and naturally I miss the shot. I'm sure the Cardinal knows exactly what it is doing - just look at that expression on his face.

The motorists stopped by this train should accept the fact that the old man isn't going to listen to any complaints!

This was the longest cut that I ever saw come out of the east end of Gibson Autorack Sort Facility. It must have been 200 cars and stretched from the east end, across 165th St, turned to parallel the NS at Osborn, blocked Osborn Street, and blocked 165th St. another time! One giant horseshoe of autoracks...all handled by a single IHB genset!

Union Pacific 602 hustles an eastbound flanger into Truckee, California, just as the sun begins to set across the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Dispatcher 74 took a chance having the flangers follow the MRVRO out of Norden. With only a half hour left before the flanger crew would die on the law, any small problem could have tied up the line for hours. The gamble paid off as the flangers were able to get into Truckee, where a fresh crew would turn the train and head back out. The new crew would work throughout the night, battling the winter weather that makes Donner Pass so infamous.

First World problems...

“Wowsers, Sky, what have you been up to? You look shattered.” Asked Bertie as he watched his friend still struggling with a jar of honey.

“I’ve been trying to sort out a problem we have, Bertie. At the moment the problem is winning.”

“Is it anything to do with that jar of honey, and all these tools, Sky?”

“It is all to do with these tools and this jar of honey, plus all the other jars of honey we have in hiding.”

“I borrowed some from Posh rather than start my own honey this morning. I think it was older and I didn’t want his jars to go out of date and then him have to throw it away.”

“That is very good of you, Bertie, to think about Posh’s honey and how bad he would feel having to throw some away. It does not, however, help me to solve this problem any more than all these tools have done.”

“Hello, Bertie, Sky, looks like the man is going to use his picture taking thingy again. What are you doing, Sky?” Asked Posh as he joined his friends sitting down beside them.

“We have a problem, Posh. The people the man buys his groceries from have either changed or they have changed the honey they are supplying. The problem is that I can’t seem to get the top off the jars. I have tried three or it could have been two, I’m not that good at counting, but I do know that I couldn’t get to the honey.”

“I see, yes, it is a different size jar, I can see that. Have you tried the thing that wraps around the top of the jar and sometimes opens it?”

“Of course, it didn’t help. You try and see if you can move it, Posh. You are bigger and stronger than me so you might be able to open it.”

“Very well, you hold onto the jar, Sky, and I’ll try and remove the lid.” Said Posh Bear as he grasped the lid and tried to turn it.

“No, sorry Sky, I can’t move it. We’ll have to come up with another way to open the jar.” Said Posh.

“Can I try, Sky, I might be able to open it for you?” Asked Bertie.

“If Posh can’t open it then I don’t think you’ll be able to, Bertie. I could ask Buttons to open it but he wants to have half the jar every time he opens one.” Said Sky scratching his head with his paw.

“Well, tell him he can’t have half the jar after he has opened it, Sky. Just say that it is wrong to take advantage like that.” Said Bertie trying not to grin.

“Bertie, have you seen the size of that bear? If he says Easter is in December this year, I’m not telling him it isn’t. He is a bit of a grump at any time and anyway, it wouldn’t improve his mood telling him he couldn’t have some honey.” Said Sky now looking desperate.

“Are you sure I can’t try and open it for you, Sky? I wouldn’t want half a jar in payment.” Said Bertie softly.

“I know, Bertie and thank you for your kind offer but I honestly feel that if Posh has tried and I have tried, and failed, then it is going to take someone extra strong to get this open. I wonder if the shop we get our honey from sells a honey jar opener. Maybe that is the answer.” Said Sky slightly brightening up at the idea.

“That would be good long term, Sky, but that won’t help you right now.” Said Posh Bear.

“Thanks Posh, that has really cheered me up. Which school did you go to, to learn such tact and diplomacy? Here comes the man and he is ready for the picture I think.” Said Sky trying to smile and failing.

The photograph taken the bears waited until the man began clear things away before they too started to move. Bertie picked up the jar of honey in his paws, placed it between his leg paws and gripped it tightly then took hold of the lid and twisted. There was a slight hiss, and the lid came off.

“Sky, you need to be careful when you take your jar of honey back as the lid is off.” He said smugly.

“But how, what did you do, how did that…? Stammered Sky.

“It was easy, you just need the knack. Let us go back to your stock and then I’ll show you how it is done on two more jars, one for Posh and the other for me.”

“But, but two jars?” Asked Sky in astonishment.

“Yes, Sky, I think it is about time you began sharing like the rest of us. It is the only way you are going to get any more honey.” Said Bertie firmly.

“I’m going to really enjoy this jar of honey.” Said Posh bear smiling. “A jar of Sky’s honey, that is a first!”

 

La Miranda Sensorex II ( credo del 1972 ), è una delle tante reflex giapponesi analogiche di quel periodo ma si mette a fuoco anche dal mirino a pozzetto. Sembra in buone condizioni ma in realtà ha molti problemi, nel primo rullino di prova molte delle foto sono venute divise con altre per problemi di avanzamento della pellicola o nere per metà del fotogramma penso a causa di infiltrazioni di luce. Con il pozzetto ho scattato solo due foto ma non sono venute male e mi è piaciuto. Peccato per tutte le foto rovinate perché l' ho usata quasi sempre in condizioni difficili e senza esposimetro ( non funziona più ) e molte fotografie sembravano venute abbastanza bene. Questa reflex mi è stata regalata da un amico fotoreporter che in questi giorni sta seguendo in Sudamerica la Parigi Dakar.

This guy just deserves the spotlight because of that expression!

And this is yet another invasive species!!

NOT an obvious problem here... Not many to be seen....and beautiful in the eyes of many of us!

"Yellow iris, or yellow flag iris, is a perennial aquatic plant native to Europe, western Asia and North Africa. It was first introduced to North Americain the 1800s as an ornamental plant for ponds and water gardens. The plant has since spread to many waterways, including those in parts of southern Ontario. In addition to its use in gardens, it has been planted in wastewater ponds because it is known to absorb heavy metals.

Yellow iris can grow in both treed and open wetlands, along river and lake edges, and on floodplains. The plant spreads by seeds and by underground stems known as rhizomes that send out new shoots above the ground and roots below. Stands of yellow iris develop thick mats of rhizomes that can connect several hundred plants. Fragments of rhizomes that break off can also form new plants.

 

Range

 

The first recorded Canadian sighting of yellow iris was in Newfoundland in 1911. It was found in Ontario in 1940. Today it grows in most Canadian provinces, including parts of southern Ontario, Quebec, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, New Brunswick, the east coast of Prince Edward Island and the west coast of British Columbia. It is also found in many American states, and in temperate areas worldwide. Several American states ban it or list it as a noxious weed."

 

Feeling cute, might go give away all my money at the SL Casino today.

There appeared to be a phasing problem with the traffic light at this intersection. Fifteen cars are visible in this shot but the line continues out of the frame. The curve in the foreground is both one end of the Happy Valley circle and the outlet from Russell Street Depot (which closed in 1989.)

Time to kick it into high gear. I've got 60 or so pictures that I want to do before the end. If I want to fit them all in this year, I've got to stop stalling and start shooting.

 

Big shout out to Aaron Nace. Aaron offers a digital enhancement class where he shows step-by-step how he's created some his recent images. He teaches a huge variety of techniques in a clear and effective way. I learned more in the last 4 weeks than I have over the last year. Whether you're a beginner or an expert, I would highly recommend checking out his class.

・耳が曲がっていない

CurvをApplyし忘れていた。

Object modeの時しか曲がらず、Edit modeになった時に耳が真っ直ぐになることには気づいていたものの、UPするときには曲がってるだろうと思い込んでいた。

 

・片耳が透明

平面で作った耳をミラー反転させた結果、右耳は裏の透明部分が表に出ている。(Solidifyに気付く前にうpした例なので)

厚みをつける時、外側につけるか、内側につけるかにも気をつける必要あり。

If you have a problem, don't say it to "Anyone" because 20% of people don't care about it and the other 80% are glad you have it!!!
