No, unfortunately not but it could almost be...Anyone with a sharp eye would see the tower at Deshler, Ohio is boarded up and the new wiring tubes sticking up out of the ground. The southbound CPL signal and tower still were standing last I was there on the morning of August 31st, 2022. How nice it would have been to actually be the 1950's so I could have photographed the Capitol Limited cruising by and a multitude of B&O east-west and north-south freights. I got the tower and CPL though, so I'm happy. Soon, I'm sure, both will be gone as the depot is that stood in the N/W quadrant.
Droitwich Spa retains a fine selection of semaphore signals including this distinctive bracket signal of the 'centre pivot' type. A full description of the operation of the signalling here can be found on Adrian the Rock's excellent website - www.roscalen.com/signals/DroitwichSpa/index.htm
Unlike last year’s submissions, when I challenged myself to triple alliterations and puns, this year I simply tried to make a quadrant kaleidoscopes out of each picture from last year. It worked for all but 2 of last year’s photos, so I found 2 new subjects.
Let me explain this picture. As mentions above, I had to fine 2 new subjects. Last year’s photo of an elbow did not work for this year. Below is last year’s picture.
No matter how I cropped this photo and rotated it, the resulting kaleidoscopes were alsways offensive to me, and likely to you, the viewers. So in my brain I cooked up a more tasteful option: elbow macaroni. So I bent my rules a bit to get this picture past ya.
La hice en negro mate y nickel plated por encargo y hoy se la he dado a su dueña, le ha encantado. Y yo estoy contenta por ello.
Saludos
The picture is taken in the fortified church in Cisnădie (German: Heltau) in Sibiu County, Transylvania, Romania located approximately 10 kilometres south of Sibiu. Originally built in the 12th century as a Romanesque basilica, the church was fortified during the 15th century, after the 1493 Turkish invasion, to protect the local population of Saxons against repeated Ottoman raids. Simultaneously to the fortification work the church itself suffered a gothicization process (see Wikipedia)

I took these with my iPhone at the beginning of the school year. As I was looking through my pics in my phone camera I saw them again. They made me think of how fast the (school) year goes... We're halfway done!!

A recently developed oldie from the original RAW.
I didn't even develop this at the time it was taken, but I liked it as I was browsing through my old archives. I have 2.5-tb of photo-files I have shot, mostly RAW, because I have saved every RAW file, like it or not, since 2000. Storage is cheap.
