Analogica con Pentax S1A ( 1963 ), Takumar 105 mm 2.8 F, Fomapan 200 asa, sviluppo con Rodinal. Nessuno riferimento a Donald ( ma non mi piace nemmeno Joe ), sono stanco, questi sono gli oggetti che raccolgo nelle case abbandonate in campagna
I grew up with cats. Even when I was a baby they were always around and I observed early on how different their personalities were. And that is why, when I found out that much of the food I was eating was animals, I realized I had to stop that. Going vegetarian at 13 always made sense to me, though I am not sure why I didn't start even sooner. Why would I eat a cow, a chicken, or a pig if I wouldn't eat a cat or a dog?
Rocket is very different from his brother, Ollie (who I posted a photo of last week) even though they share both nature/ genetics (they are brothers from the same litter) and nurture (adopted as kittens by my neighbors). Rocket is one of those cats that is an observer and needs additional time to warm up to you. Once he decides you are safe, he is loyal and affectionate but he lets Ollie be the charming life of the party right away.
Basically, Ollie is the cat who is instantly intoxicated and dancing on top of the countertops with a shrimp cocktail in his hand/paw while Janelle Monae blasts out of the speakers while Rocket prefers to listen to Tom Waits and think about life and his place in existence. You're going to dance with Ollie first and let him take you up to the rooftop to dip you below the moon but you're going to talk to Rocket at 3am about why is it we are all still here after Ollie has collapsed into an exhausted heap to dream about swimming with fishes and flying with seagulls (I think that's what cats dream about).

Britney jumping down from the perch like a rocket :-)
Coffee, the dog, watches the scene in astonishment :0)
The peregrine falcon - one of the fastest and one of the most beautiful falcons I know. Fantastic bird!
Seen at the falconry of the bird park Walsrode, Lower Saxony.

Another view of one of the F-86s (Okay okay, the Australian CA-27 variant, so you purists will stop yelling at me!) in that location I was asked not to divulge by the owner (that I also respectfully ask you to not divulge) from the "Boneyard" book, but never shown online. Shot a few minutes after yesterday's post, facing the other way, just after midnight in March 2011. Stormy, cold, and camera-killingly windy. 3:13 of broken full moon, with red and white LED flashlight. Someone should put some wheels on it and see how fast it'll do a lap at Daytona.
Reprocessed and replaced, May 2025.
Steam Locomotive and tender, Liverpool & Manchester Railway, replica, 0-2-2 "Rocket" 0-2-2, designed by Robert Stephenson, built 1979 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Rainhill Trials.

A replica of Stephenson’s famous Rocket running on an overcast day at Vintage Trains’ Tyseley works near Birmingham. Rocket was the most advanced steam locomotive of its day. It was built for the The Rainhill Trials in October 1829 to test George Stephenson's argument that locomotives would provide the best motive power for the then nearly-completed Liverpool and Manchester Railway. Five locomotives were entered, but Stephenson's Rocket was the only locomotive to complete the trials and was declared the winner.

Monstrously huge cubic capacity road rocket...very butch!
Over 300kg when fuelled up...let’s just say you better not drop it!
Bumpy Rocket Frog (Litoria inermis) from Mataranka in the Top End of the Northern Territory. Taken with a vintage Yashica 55/2.8 1:2 ML Macro lens for Contax/Yashica from the late 1970's. Shot wide open @2.8 with a 20mm extension tube incorporated for a little added magnification on a Canon 5D Mark III body.

Literally! the power of the March 20th rocket was a clean pair of YN2 four axle's, along with the usual two Dash 8's. Also, credit to my voice activated flash holder :-D

Here we go
Come with me
There's a world out there that we should see
Take my hand
Close your eyes
With you right here, I'm a rocketeer
Baby, we can stay fly like a G6
Shop the streets of Tokyo, get you fly kicks
Girl, you're always on my mind
Got my head up in the sky
And I'm never lookin' down, feelin' priceless, yeah
