Here is one of several images I took of the moon in full eclipse last night. The 40D/100-400L sat on the very rigid Bogen 3033/3057 tripod/head and was triggered by remote control. I think this is just about as good as I can get. The air, as you can see, was roiling a bit (lots of wind aloft) and the heat rising off the city gives this a shimmering effect. Still, this nearly does the event justice, IMNSHO. :-)
A remote cottage sits on the shores of Loch Lomond in the shadow of Ben Lomond.
The "cottage" is, in fact, the Loch Lomond Sailing Club building :)
This was a shot testing hooking the camera up to the Canon phone app and activating remote control. We got there in the end is all I can say!
The MaK Di8 shunters can be operated away from the cab for shunting manoeuvres etc. A driver is seen operating number 817 remotely. Who wouldn't want one of these as a remote control toy for Christmas?

I bought a remote! :) I took some self-portraits to test it out and I think I'm happy with it!
I feel like venting so let's begin.
Top 3 Pet Peeves:
1) LIES. Honesty is the number one quality I look for in all people. If you're dishonest, expect me to keep you at bay. If you lie to me, I guarantee it will be a struggle for me to get over and things might never be the same. Take that as a warning. Lies are stupid; just don't do it.
2) Being judged before people get to know me. I don't always make the best first impressions. I can be shy, awkward, and even moody if you catch me at a bad time. As a general rule, I tend to be most outgoing around outgoing people. I can honestly say that I don't dislike anyone. I'll never intentionally do you wrong and I'll try to be the best person I can be.
3) Finding out through a third party that someone was criticizing me behind my back. If you have something to say about me, good or bad, say it to me directly. I'll respect you more that way. It's also less hurtful.
So I realized this doesn't suit my picture at all... haha! I'm happy, just kind of frustrated.
Remote controlled Rover, I challenged myself to make a remote controlled 6x6 with all wheel drive, as small as possible, front and rear steering, suspension and as many lights as I can cram into this model as possible. This model contains 1 buggy motor, 1 pf steering servo, 1 pf v2 IR receiver, 1 pf switch, 4 sets of pf LEDs, 2 pf extension cables and 2 old school lego LED lights (for the flashing lights)
He discovered his reset button early on & there were not many things that bothered him all the rest of his days just because of that.
Have you discovered your reset button............

'DRP'
Portrait of a steel factory in Abu Dhabi. It wasn't easy to find an interesting composition with some purpose and order amidst this industrial chaos. I find it incredibly rewarding to spot a pattern when there seems to be non and capture it with camera.
Tech talk: I used Nikon 14-24 ultra-wide zoom on Canon 5Dmk2 and composed my frame by keeping the foreground elements as close as possible to the lens while using the arrangement of pipes to frame the DRP tower in the center.
I started by bracketing 9-stop exposure which was later processed into an HDR tone-mapped image with Oloneo PhotoEngine Pro. Late afternoon sun created very harsh contrasting scene, hence the 9-stop HDR. It was imperative to preserve all highlight and shadow details before proceeding onto BW conversion.
This is where the real work began; I removed the existing background with Perfect Mask Pro 5.2. This is probably one of the most complex masks I ever had to extract from an image. Getting a clean alpha channel between the tiny grates on the upper edge of the image was particularly cumbersome. It took me more than 3 hours to extract a mask which was clean enough for my purpose.
I created the motion blurred cloud by painting blobs of white colour and motion-blurring/radial blurring them in Photoshop. Once I was happy with the fake long exposure sky, I placed it below the transparent foreground image. Composite was clean and I was satisfied.
Last phase was the B/W conversion. I used Silver Efex Pro and placed the Red filter over the sky which turned all blues into solid blacks. Some of the pipes in the upper and side edges of the image were quite dark and they failed to contrast well enough with the black sky. I decided to create individual layers of clouds which I moved in strategic places in order to expose the pipes where bright background was needed in order to obtain a proper separation.
Careful tweaking of the sky took approximately 1 hour until I was happy with overall detailing and luminance.
Final grade was done with Topaz ReStyle. I opted for soft/sharp look where highlights give off a bit of exposure blooming while maintaining all details with surgical sharpness.
Additional image sharpening was performed with Nik Software Sharpener Pro which intelligently adds details where it's needed while keeping the noise at minimum level in areas with low detail.

The Plaxton Derwent bodied Tyne Valley bus behind had transported me from Hexham to here at Bellingham and now that dubious looking thing in front belonging to Northern Garage was to transport me on to Kielder. July 1983.
tomorrow, Thomas will get a haircut. Will he grow smaller?
btw: he's sticking his tongue out. it's not me
(Best seen large. you'll have a laugh)
Sheep grazing along the Pangong Lake Road on the way to Pangong Lake, Ladakh.
Ladakh ("land of high passes") is a region in the Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir that currently extends from the Kunlun mountain range to the main Great Himalayas to the south, inhabited by people of Indo-Aryan and Tibetan descent. It is one of the most sparsely populated regions in Jammu and Kashmir and its culture and history are closely related to that of Tibet. Ladakh is renowned for its remote mountain beauty and culture.
Historically, the region included the Baltistan (Baltiyul) valleys (now mostly in Pakistan), the entire upper Indus Valley, the remote Zanskar, Lahaul and Spiti to the south, much of Ngari including the Rudok region and Guge in the east, Aksai Chin in the northeast (extending to the Kun Lun Mountains), and the Nubra Valley to the north over Khardong La in the Ladakh Range. Contemporary Ladakh borders Tibet to the east, the Lahaul and Spiti regions to the south, the Vale of Kashmir, Jammu and Baltiyul regions to the west, and the southwest corner of Xinjiang across the Karakoram Pass in the far north.

This is how you would remote a F3: MD-4 drive, MK-1 speed controller, MF-4 250-exposure back, and ML-2 IR remote controller.
This is one of those cheap "ebay" remote flash triggers. I had to fix it as the using the canon 430ex it goes nuts flashing at random. To fix, simply get some tin/aluminum foil the length of the compartment next to the battery and beside aerial (its the long brass wire coming of the circuit board). You need to make it wide enough so you can bend it over the channel selector. once you have you done this, simply cover it in tape so that you don't short anything. Then put it in place. That's it. 5 minutes tops and it works.... Had it running for 30 minutes and no random flashes...simple as...
An Cruachan is an extremely remote hill situated between Loch Mullardoch and Loch Monar. It is really an outlier of the Munro An Socach, but with a drop between of more than 500 feet. It vies with An Stac for the title of the remotest Graham, although the first part of the route can be cycled along a landrover track from Kililan to Iron Lodge.
This view captures An Cruachan to the left, disappearing from view, and Loch Mullardoch, emerging into view, to the right. It is surrounded by some of the highest mountains north of the Great Glen.
