Candid street portrait taken in Glasgow, Scotland. Not sure if she is just gesticulating to him or if he has some food stuck around his mouth somewhere. Either way I love the many stories that this image can conjure up.
The wonderful views of the countryside from the top of the Crown Range mountains, it was a long way down!

Lydd Ranges is a military firing range south of Lydd, in Kent, England. It extends as far as the coast.
It has been used for military training for over 150 years and is part of the Dungeness, Romney Marsh and Rye Bay Site of Special Scientific Interest. Because the range is used for live firing, access is sometimes restricted - red flags are flown during these times, and access is prohibited along the foreshore and Galloways Road. Also, red lights are shown at restricted times if there is poor weather. The danger area extends out to sea, and mariners sailing to and from Rye Harbour must pass south of the Stephenson Shoal to avoid it. Firing occurs about 300 days a year. When firing is not taking place, it may be possible to walk along a designated path along the shore.
There is a 2 ft (610 mm) narrow gauge railway on the range. It is principally a target railway,although it also carries personnel and equipment around the facility.

I see this almost daily, but until now didn't get a photo. I have no idea what this is used for, but it doesn't look so original any more!
This is a highly sought after early Range Rover first generation- I think they were launched on the H reg. I wonder when these modifications were made to it, I imagine quite a long time ago when they weren't so valuable as today. It looks like it's used or was used for serious off road purposes, looking at the roll cage (?) and two spare wheels at the back!
It's had the same owner since 1989, which is nice to see. I bet this drives like a tank! But any three door is great to see these days, especially not a show queen. The wheels on the back look like originals, whereas the ones it's wearing look like later model wheels.

A heavily modified version of the Baron Prototype, the DASH Baron was made purely to compete in the Mecha Racing League. Designed to withstand a beating during races while still maintaining high top speeds, the DASH is definitely something you should watch out for in MRL.
Pilot: Baron Ishi
No one knows for certain if Baron Ishi is his real name or if he's even a human being but his patient yet deadly driving style has earned him a reputation in the league. Some say he's actually a cyborg with an advanced AI program designed by ARMaTech to drive their hulking speedster mech while others swear he's just a really cold human being, sick of piloting war machines and opts to drive a humanoid coffin at high speeds instead.
Special Ability: Shell Rush
Using both heavy arm guards, the DASH will charge towards an opposing mech, crushing them with deadly blunt force.
Special Ability: DASH Rush
The special Quorus heatsinks at the rear of the DASH activates and grants the reFrame increased speed, mobility, and reaction time although using this ability puts a lot of stress on the machine and can only be used once or twice before having the heatsinks replaced.

For those interested in LEGO mech building, I put out an eBook over at Amazon Kindle a while back called Mech Wars Instructional Primer. If you’re looking for a resource that could help you start or even improve your mech building skills, you might find this eBook useful :D
There was a time when cattle guards were a common site for railroads on the Texas Plains. This one survives in Plainview because a customer spur crosses a cow pasture - in town. Off the top of my head, this is one of the few railroad cattle guards left in the Panhandle-Plains.

The Bungle Bungle Range is the major component of Purnululu National Park in Western Australia. The photo was taken in the north of the range near Echidna Chasm which is reached by following the valley in the left centre of the picture. The rock in the foreground is 'Boll Conglomerate' the same stuff the range in the background consists of.
(Caracara cheriway) B28I0133.jpg
Distribution: The Northern Caracara is endemic in the Americas. Its range from Baja California, Arizona, northern Mexico, Texas and Louisiana, it extends throughout Central America and joined the North of South America up Peru until Amazon River. Isolated populations also live in Florida, Cuba and the Isle of Pines.
Behaviour: The Northern Caracaras are monogamous and their conjugal ties last for many years. Some birds reject their head back until the crest rests on their backs. They inflate their throat feathers and throw noises which are probably to attract a partner. Although the parade was observed by many people, it remains unclear what its exact meaning. It is also unknown if it's performed by both partners. We are also seeing mutual smoothing feathers, the male usually being more active. When mating, the male usually mounted on the back of her partner without making any preamble. On rare occasions, the coupling is preceded by the ritual offering of food. Unlike other members of the family of falcon or hawk, there is no evidence of aerial displays at this raptor.
Nesting: Unlike hawks, pure Caracaras truly build a nest that has fairly broad dimensions. This is a rather crude structure built primarily with branches and pieces of wood. The bottom of the cup is filled of soft materials or greenery. This nest is often reused for many consecutive years. When it is abandoned by the couple, it is often taken over by another species of raptor. In Florida, the most frequently selected trees sabal palmettos, but pine trees, bushes and other unidentified palm trees are also possible. In Texas, the most commonly used materials are oaks, yucca, mesquite and acacia.
Diet : This bird is a scavenger as a true predator. For this reason, it can be considered a separate species from the raptors in North America. According to many observers, the Northern Caracara feeds mainly on carrion but also consumes a lot of mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs and fish as well as a variable number of invertebrates such as crustaceans and the insects. According to some, he marauding along highways at dusk and it feeds on animals that have recently been injured such as rodents, rabbits, possums, the squonces, coyotes, snakes and a variety important birds. The Northern Caracara sometimes hunt egrets beef and jays. Remains of what these animals found near its nest prove that it can sometimes be an effective hunter. In Costa Rica, the young chicks are fed with freshly caught prey such as blue-winged teal, jacanas Mexico, the rats and lizards.
Distribution : Le Caracara du Nord est endémique du continent américain. Son aire de répartition part de la Basse Californie, de l'Arizona, du nord du Mexique, du Texas et de la Louisiane , elle s'étend à travers toute l'Amérique Centrale et rejoint le nord de l'Amérique du Sud jusqu'au Pérou et jusqu'au fleuve Amazone. Des populations isolées vivent également en Floride, à Cuba et dans l'île des Pins.
Comportements : Les Caracaras du Nord sont monogames et leurs liens conjugaux durent pendant de nombreuses années. Certains oiseaux rejettent leur tête en arrière jusqu'à ce que la crête repose sur leur dos. Ils gonflent les plumes de leur gorge et lancent des croassements qui sont sans doute destinés à attirer un partenaire. Bien que cette parade ait été observée par de nombreuses personnes, on ignore toujours quelle est sa signification exacte. On ignore également si elle est réalisée par les deux partenaires. On assiste également à des lissages mutuels de plumes, le mâle étant habituellement plus actif. En cas d'accouplement, le mâle monte généralement sur le dos de sa partenaire sans effectuer le moindre préambule. En de rares occasions, l'accouplement est précédé par l'offrande rituelle de nourriture. Contrairement aux autres membres de la famille des falconidés ou des accipitridés, on n'a jamais observé de parades aériennes chez ce rapace.
Nidification : Contrairement aux purs faucons, les Caracaras construisent véritablement un nid qui a des dimensions assez larges. C'est une structure assez grossière bâtie principalement avec des branches et des morceaux de bois. Le fond de la coupe n'est garni ni de matériaux doux ni de verdure. Ce nid est souvent réutilisé pendant de nombreuses années consécutives. Quand il est abandonné par le couple, il est souvent repris par une autre espèce de rapace. En Floride, les arbres les plus fréquemment choisis sont les sabal palmettos, mais les pins, les buissons et d'autres palmiers non identifiés sont également possibles. Au Texas, les supports les plus couramment employés sont les chênes, les yuccas, les mesquites et les acacias.
Régime : Cet oiseau est un nécrophage autant qu'un véritable prédateur. Pour cette raison, il peut être considéré comme une espèce à part parmi les rapaces d'Amérique du Nord. Selon de nombreux observateurs, le Caracara du Nord se nourrit principalement de charognes mais ils consomme également une grande quantité de mammifères, d'oiseaux, de reptiles, de grenouilles et de poissons ainsi qu'un nombre variable d'invertébrés tels que les crustacés et les insectes. D'après certains, il maraude le long des autoroutes à la tombée du jour et il se nourrit d'animaux qui ont été récemment accidentés tels que les rongeurs, les lapins, les oppossums, les squonces, les coyotes, les serpents et une variété importante d'oiseaux. Le Caracara du Nord chasse parfois des hérons garde-bœuf et des geais. Des restes de ce ces animaux trouvés près de son nid prouvent qu'il peut être parfois un chasseur efficace. Au Costa Rica, les jeunes oisillons sont alimentés avec des proies fraîchement capturées comme des sarcelles à ailes bleues, des jacanas du Mexique, des rats et des lézards.
After having built the chassis, I started with the body. This is how far I came before cancelling the project.
The main reason for its failure was the fact that the two Powered Up XL motors were not able to acceptably drive the model. The PU Hub went frequently in overload state.
At this stage, only the front part was more ore less finished, with the fenders and the bonnet in place.
