“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 I think it was older and I didn’t want his jars to go out of date and then him have to throw it away.”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!”
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.
La ría recorre a lo largo todo el norte del jardín, casi paralela al muro que lo delimita. Tiene una longitud de medio km. Hacia la mitad de su recorrido se abre en un pequeño lago que alberga dos islas. En este punto encontraremos varios puntos singulares: el monumento funerario dedicado al III Duque de Osuna, el embarcadero o “casa de cañas”, el puente de hierro, la isla de los cisnes y restos de antiguos pabellones. La ría está delimitada por muretes de ladrillo macizo. Para el fondo y las paredes hay diferentes acabados, pues debió dar siempre problemas y pérdidas constantes de agua. Actualmente se ha restaurado por completo, respetando íntegramente su diseño original. En su deseo de mantener su imagen “serpenteante”, sus paredes ondulan continuamente, pudiendo decirse que no existe ni un solo metro rectilíneo. Las curvas sinuosas se suceden y las vistas van cambiando según nuestro recorrido avanza por la ría.

The estuary runs along all the North Garden, almost parallel to the wall that delimits it. It has a length of half km. Towards the middle of his tour opens in a small lake which is home to two islands. At this point we will find various singular points: funeral monument dedicated to the III Duke of Osuna, jetty or "House of reeds", the iron bridge, the island of the swans and the remains of ancient pavilions. The estuary is delimited by walls of solid brick. For the bottom and the walls there are different finishes, as he must always give problems and constant loss of water. Currently has it been restored completely, fully respecting its original design. In their desire to maintain their "meandering" image, its walls ripple continuously, and can say that there is not a single linear meter. The sinuous curves occur and views change as our tour goes along the estuary.

Ran to photograph this eagle before a gal with a cell phone camera got too close and scared it off - a common problem
Just an enlarged part of a Pigeon capture to show the level of detail my 'budget' Nikkor AF-S 200-500mm f5.6 ED lens can reveal.
Purchased about six years ago it was just under £1000 GBP and I took a gamble on it based on reviews and sample images. Unfortunately several people returned their copies, including the well known wildlife photographer Steve Perry from Backcountry Gallery, citing softness issues. Consequently it did concern me that I would have the same experience, though fortunately my unit has no obvious QC problems and has surprised me with it's optical acuity.
At 5.1 pounds (2.31 Kilograms) it's fairly big and heavy when coupled with my camera and grip, but I'm extending the shooting times progressively.
This shot is hand held at 500mm using the impressive 4.5 stops of VR :
1/1250 sec / f7.1 / Auto ISO 2016
I have been genuinely surprised to see this image chosen for Explore, and extend my regards to all my fellow flickrerites who have viewed it and left their kind comments - Thank You!

Engine 16 is one of two locomotives that were chosen back around February of 2020 by the East Broad Top Foundation for restoration to operational service. For now, a lot of parts have been removed from the boiler and a grid pattern has been drawn all over the engine. This will aid in the ultrasonic scan that must be performed over the entire boiler to check for any problem areas in the metal. Without this important scan, a small crack or flaw in the metal could lead to a catastrophic accident and/or explosion of the boiler. I am among a TON of other railfans who are excitedly and anxiously awaiting this engine running and rumbling down the rails again.
Boa noite!!
Antes de mais nada digam olá para minha mão esquerda, pela primeira vez na net! hahahah
A unha do dedo médio da mão que eu fotografo quebrou muuuito no cotoco, ta feia, sem formato, tenho que esperar crescer um pouco pras fotos ficarem apresentáveis, enquanto isso fiquem com minha mão esquerda! :P
O problema é que não sei fazer pose com essa mão e essa foto foi a única que salvou! Mas dá para vocês verem como o Sakura é fofo! Adorei ele! Está sobre o Skull & Glossbones da OPI!
Esse ainda não estará à venda, o material para fazer ele em quantidade ainda está à caminho, então só nas próximas levas. :)
Adorei mesmo, achei uma graça a combinação dessas cores!
E muuuuito obrigada por todas as palavras na foto anterior! Vcs tem razão, nem tenho que esquentar minha cabeça com aquilo tudo!! Obrigada de coração pelos comentários!! <3
Beijo e ótima noite para todas!! ;*

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.

Having been trying to get my P950 back into how it used to work. Several re-sets & got rid of some of the problems but not all. Dashed out last evening for a couple of garden shots to test. Only problem for me now is the review system seems tyo have changed & i want it back to full frame review.
My white double flowered Hybiscus is doing well. Probably because it is in the dryist sheltered part of the gdn
"...The problem begins when we try to claim that any belief system is the only solution to every issue and aspect of life ... "
Definitely, this problem destroyed many hopes...Can't we do something about it?
Dedicated to Tareque Masud and Catherine Masud who sacrificed their lives for telling untold stories of our country... inspire us... give us hope for at least another 40 years...

・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!!!

Our Daily Challenge 19-25 August : The Good, the Bad & the Ugly
A decent crop this year in spite of some blossom-end rot, Brightline caterpillar nibbling and a humungous whitefly infestation, which means I must fumigate at the end of the season !
They taste great anyhow!
Back in the late 1940s, due to some problems with water seepage, the Elgin Diner was given a new foundation, which raised the structure about two feet higher.
During that time a small shed was added to the back of the building which allowed provisions to be bought in bulk and stored more easily. Other changes included a metal awning, screen doors, along with larger roof ventilators which made the summer months more tolerable.
The DART Moving and Storage Company building, behind the diner, was sold in the late 1950s and became the regional Sears distribution center.
The times are changing in Elgin Park, yet the diner still does a brisk business, even though the structure is now 35 years old and needs some major repairs.
An interesting note about the Hot Rod seen in this photo: The owner of the diner bought this car new back in 1932 and kept it his daily driver up until the late 1950s. He then gave it to his son, who immediately tarted it up.
The son helps at the diner, but doesn't want this to become his permanent job - life is calling and he has places to go and people to meet.
One last item of interest...I know for a fact, the trees behind the diner are slated to be taken down and a strip mall
will be built within a year.
Here comes suburbia!
Two other photos that illustrate the arc of the diner's life can be seen at the following links:

On the bridge over Main Street. I checked under the bridge most carefully -- due to the frequent to-and-fro trip-trapping of the local goatish brethren, there were no trolls. So, I decided it was a good place to leave a nautilus.
And thought about the design problems. Although the pitch of the spiral is within the proper range, the curves I'm using are not right, side-to-side. When unwrapped, I suspect we'll find the growth lines of the real nautilus are parabolas. I intend to find out.
I cannot play videos. Doing so will always lock up the system yielding the above blue screen of death! And, on occasion, it'll just freeze when it's sitting idle. I've tried a bunch of things, but so far no luck. The O/S is current and up to date, as is the BIOS, and drivers. HP has what appears to be good diagnostic tools built in, both to check H/W and S/W...ran them both, and it found nothing. The blue screen above always indicates that it is gathering information and will re-boot automatically...wrong, it does nothing and stays on 0 and requires a hard shut down and restart. I've looked for help on Google, lot's of suggestions and subsequent tries, but nothing I've tried has resolved the problem. Seems like a watchdog timer issue! Only a year and a half old, out of warranty, and I'm ready to put a bullet in it! The headaches started when new, and I didn't want to continue with McAfee anti virus program that was preinstalled on a trial basis. I preferred to go with Webroot, and after I chose not to continue with McAfee I was literally inundated with McAfee SPAM, and that continued for months. It almost seemed like a revenge that was built in, and triggered for me not signing up with it!
New to First Yorkshire Rider(1002), in 02/1993, this B10B is seen here in Halifax Bus Station, on 18/05/2008.
The learned of you who follow me will notice a near twelve month gap between my colourslides. I was having problems with the carriage of my then camera in early 2007, so I've either had a lousy film back or I switched to my then smaller camera and had colour film in. I may even had misplaced some slides, who knows? Anyway, normal service resumed!
The camera being a Pentax MZ-M with the film being a Fujichrome Colourslide.

This year the FFF+ have decided to change their monthly challenge from "Five On The Fifth" (FOTF) to “Freestyle on the Fifth”, so still a theme every month, and to be posted on the 5th of the month, but this year it does not have to be five images, it is up to the member to choose a single photo or a collage/composite of how ever many photos they like. The theme will still be set a member of the group each month.
This month it was Laszlo’s turn to choose the theme, and he chose “Summertime”.
I chose to represent Summertime as it is being experienced by so much of our country which is a state of severe drought.
These photos were taken on the last day of 2019 in the middle of the Providence Road dam at Woodlands Historic Park. If you’ve followed my Flickr stream for a while you would have seen my photos of Ducks, Grebes, Herons, Reed Warblers, Brown Honeyeaters and even a Spotted Crake all frolicking in the dam. Now there is not a drop of water in sight, just dried mud and dead reeds.
The drought is so bad in some parts of Australia that some towns are in danger of running out of water completely. There has been talk of entire towns being evacuated due to lack of water. Obviously farmers across the country are in the struggle of their life. And of course, the dryness is causing an ever increasing fire risk across huge swathes of the country with huge areas currently suffering fires that look like the start of the apocalypse.
Despite this, our government continues it’s climate denying stance, recently finishing last amongst all countries of the world in a ranking of the effectiveness of climate policy and being one of a cadre of four that really stymied the recent COP25 climate conference.
In addition they continue to approve new fossil fuel mines such as Adani while we should be doing everything to reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions, not increasing them. Adani is also going to have a further devastating effect on the lack of water situation. It is estimated that the Adani mine will consume at least 270 billion litres of groundwater, and the government have already approved a plan allowing Adani to drain 12.5 billion litres from the Suttor River without even conducting a full environmental assessment.
I am further bewildered at a recent decision where a Chinese-owned company has been granted approval to run a 96 million litre a year commercial water mining operation in severely drought-hit southern Queensland, where locals are on water rations and communities are at imminent risk of running dry.
It really just doesn’t make sense. They are raping and pillaging our country, and selling it to the highest bidder and showing blatant disregard for the country, the planet and the people they are meant to be representing. Scott Morrison and his LNP crones are in the pockets of the fossil-fuel industry. They love coal and the money it brings them more than they love their country and its people.
Our Government continues to ignore warnings from scientists, experts and their own Home Affairs department - acknowledging a problem would mean acknowledging climate change is real.
They lie and cheat and rely on their corporate media mates to obfuscate what is really happening - it is a disgrace.
Some links below if anyone who is interested in further reading. If you only have time to read/watch one or two links, please watch the short videos on the first two links, if they don’t scare you, I don’t know what will.

‐Excuse me sir...It's..seven o'clock sir...
-Correct!
-May I leave now sir? If that's okay with you...
-The problem with you Cratchit is that you always think of your own pleasure...Well...you can leave...but make sure you come earlier the next morning!
-Of course, thank you sir! You are so kind! Merry Christmas Mr. Scrooge!
-Get out of here and take your merry Christmas with you!

I wanted to state that this is not my house; although I wish it were. When we were kicking around the idea to move to Massachusetts, we flew out during Thanksgiving week to make sure we wanted Massachusetts to become our new home. I had been drooling over this house on a real estate website so we decided to drive out and take a look during an open house. First of all, the house is PINK! I loved the idea of living in a pink house. This house felt so right to me; the owner was selling because his girlfriend (I don't think they were married) had passed away and I believe he wanted to get away and start over. She was an artist and the walls were covered with her art. I will confess, I teared up when I walked inside. It was built in the late 1800's and had charm oozing out of its walls. We weren't in the position to buy at that time (we still had a house in Seattle to sell), but I'll never forget this house. So glad I took photos that day.

L'Autodrom de Terramar, a Sitges, és un espai força unic: un dels cirquits de carreres més antics del món, i un dels pocs de tipus oval d'Europa. De fet, és el 4rt cirquit automobilistic més antic del món (el 3er d'Europa), i el que té corbes amb pendent més pronunciat. Els altres 3 eren Brooklands a Anglaterra, Monza a Italia, i Indianapolis als Estats Units!!!
Data del 1923, i havia de ser el centre d'un gran espai de luxe i descans que inclouria xalets de luxe i un casino. Però només es va construir el circuit... i rapidament va tenir problemes economics. S'hi varen fer curses de cotxes i motos fins el 1932. La guerra civil i la miseria de la postguerra acabaren amb tota activitat automobilistica i els terrenys es destinaren a usos agricoles.
El 2009 la pista i la graderia es varen restaurar i s'hi han fet alguns esdeveniments, rodatges d'anuncis i fins hi tot curses de classics.

========================
The Autodrom de Terramar, in Sitges (Catalonia), is a quite unique space: one of the oldest racing circuits in the world, and one of the few oval-type circuits in Europe. In fact, it is the 4th oldest motor racing circuit in the world (the 3rd in Europe), and the one with the steepest curves. The other 3 were Brooklands in England, Monza in Italy, and Indianapolis in the United States!!!
It dates from 1923, and was to be the center of a large space of luxury and relaxation that would include luxury villas and a casino. But only the circuit was built... and it quickly ran into financial problems. Car and motorbike races were held there until 1932. The civil war and post-war poverty put an end to all automotive activity and the land was used for agricultural purposes.
In 2009, the track and stands were restored and some events, commercial filming, TV programs like The Grand Tour (with Jeremy Clarkson) and even classic races have been held there.
