Luke 2 "...behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.
The Hungarian State Railway is choking itself on poor maintenance and a shortage of carriages this summer.
Intercity trains running with 1-2 fewer coaches than planned, shunting diesel locomotives pulling "express" trains instead of mainline diesel are a daily theme now.
In the suburbs of Budapest, on the last non-electrified line, number 142 passenger capacity was greatly reduced with the summer timetable stepping into play.
Already within a few days, MÁV realised that passengers commuting to work did not magically disappear with the start of the summer school holiday, and so the larger locomotive-hauled trainsets were put back into circulation on the line.
With driving trailer 102's running permits expiring, a replacement was in need, so in the recent days freshly renovated 141 arrived from Debrecen.

Well this is my daily saviour. I love a nice cup of cappuccino every afternoon, often with a snack piece of cake or a biscuit. Wonderful. ( I have taken over this task from my granddaughter now she has moved away. I am not as good ! )
This is image my video MIX 10. There are more examples of these Variations on my portfolio website :-
In this picture, there are BILLIONS of midgies (1-1.5mm biting flies) just dying to dine out on your blood. For that reason, Sandwood Bay in July is a near suicidal place to choose for wild camping. However, COVID restrictions prevented the usual week in June for the last 30 years, leaving that the only option.
Fortunately for most of the time, the wind blew strongly from north, then south, then west. On the one evening when stillness descended, the clouds of dementors filling the grasslands rose up intent on revenge. I had not appreciated that despite previous belief, smoke from a fire will not save you when they have not eaten in days, even if you are standing over the smoky fire.
The westerly saviour also swirled through the sea of maram grass and provided some interest on a dull wet day.
I owe my peace and freedom to two people in SL who really went out their way to help me take steps to become a stronger person. Strong enough to break free of toxic chains that almost destroyed me. For that they have my eternal loyalty and respect.
Pretty was the first who found me and through her, I was able to leave behind a very vicious cycle. My beloved daughter, she has stood by me when even those who had known me far longer, betrayed my faith.
I will always be here for you. We got out a terrible situation together, and we saved each other when we took a big courageous risk in leaving behind everything we'd known, to find a new home. We defied all the odds and everyone who doubted us. We made mistakes but we changed for the better, Most of all, we took control of our own fates.
Thank you for caring for me and for everything you've done for my sake ❤

~The night is deafening when the silence is listening,
And I'm down on my knees, and I know that something is missing.
Because the back of my mind is holding things I'm relying in,
But I choose to ignore it because I'm always denying them.
I'm a bit of a manic when it's not as I plan it,
'Cause I start losing my head and then I get up in a panic,
Remember when we were kids and always knew when to quit it,
Are we denying a crisis or are we scared of admitting it?
I don't want to know.
I just want to run to you,
And break off the chains, and throw them away,
I just want to be so much,
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust,
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour, I'll need a saviour.
It won't ever change if you want it to stay the same,
I really hate it but I know it's hard to choose if you're chained,
And when it's all you control 'cause you've got nothing else to hold,
You're getting tighter and tighter, it's getting harder to let it go.
I don't want to know...
I just want to run to you,
And break off the chains, and throw them away,
I just want to be so much,
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust,
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour,
I'll need a saviour.
Stand me up and maybe I won't be so small,
Free my hands and feet and maybe I won't always fall,
Save me.
I just want to run to you,
And break off the chains, and throw them away,
I just want to be so much,
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust,
I just want to run to you,
And break off the chains and throw them away,
I just want to be so much,
And shake off the dust that turned me to rust,
Sooner than later, I'll need a saviour,
I'll need a saviour~

Where I come from, in France, there are a lot of those water towers. I never really understood their usefulness, do they need to be this big to build pressure ?
Dedicated to @renatomarozzi, my father and brilliant general fighter pilot, who flew away to save us.
St Saviour’s is a small chapel situated in the hamlet of Stydd just outside Ribchester. It is a remnant of a Knights Templar establishment. The chapel is a simple rectangular shaped building, dating back to the mid 12th century and dedicated to St Saviour. It was beautiful to see in the early morning sunlight and an extremely peaceful place and feel about it, we couldn’t go inside as it was locked, but as it was in a huge field with a working farm at the rear it could be difficult to keep an eye on it, and sadly that is a fact of life these days.
Victorian Stained glass in the parish church of St Michael, Bray, Berkshire. This window depicts Christ Saviour of the World (centre), flanked by St Peter (left) and St Paul (right). It is the work of Lavers & Barraud and dates from 1863. It is dedicatd to Charlotte Hibbert
So continuing my adventures into astrophotography and specifically "deep sky" with this view of the Andromeda Galaxy M31. This is a massive step up from my first attempt to capture our close neighbour (its only 2.537 million light years away!). Also in view are M32 and M110 dwarf galaxies.
Not ideal conditions with a first quarter moon and moderate light polution. Looking forward to a new moon next time maybe. So grateful for all those youtube videos on set up and editing. They are invaluable to a newbie like me.
If you have read down to here thank you. I'll reward you with the image specifics! Tracking is with a modified Sky Watcher Star Adventurer. Imaged with the William Optics RedCat 51 and an unmodified Canon 5D MKIII. 1 hour 36 minutes total exposure time with 64 light frames and 45 dark frames @ 90 seconds, f4.9 and is800. Stacked in Starry Sky Stacker and edited with Photoshop and Lightroom.
Before we came to Copenhagen I had a look at things we could see in the city. Sometimes it's nice to just wander around and see where you end up but with limited time here, it was important to have a 'to do' list. Although we didn't go inside the church, I knew I wanted to get a close look at it, so I was pleased we found time to find this view point across the road from it!
You can climb the spiral staircase which narrows as it goes around the spire, but having watched a video of someone doing it on YouTube, I knew there was no way I'd be able to consider it!
The Church of Our Saviour (Danish: Vor Frelsers Kirke) is a baroque church in Copenhagen, Denmark, most famous for the external spiral winding staircase that can be climbed to the top, offering extensive views over central Copenhagen. It is also noted for its carillon, which plays melodies every hour from 8 am to midnight.
When Christian IV planned Christianshavn in 1617, it was intended as an independent merchant's town on the island of Amager and it therefore needed a church. A temporary church was inaugurated in 1639 but construction of the present Church of Our Saviour, the design of Lambert van Haven, did not start until 1682. The church was inaugurated 14 years later in 1695 but important interior features like the altar had a notoriously temporary character and the tower still had no spire. The church got its permanent altar in 1732 but plans for construction of the spire was not revitalized until 1747 under the reign of Frederik V. The new architect on the project was Lauritz de Thurah. He soon abandoned van Haven's original design in favour of his own project that was approved by the King in 1749. Three years later the spire was finished and the King climbed the tower at a ceremony on 28 August 1752.
There is a long-lived urban legend stating that the architect killed himself by jumping from the top of the spire, when he realised that the spiral turns the wrong way - anticlockwise - around. This is not about Lambert van Haven, since the spire was added to the church almost 50 years after his death, but the designer of the spiral spire, Laurids de Thurah. There is no truth in the myth though, since Thurah died in his bed seven years after the spire was completed, and there is nothing in the records that indicates that he should have been unhappy with his work in any way.

Access to the church is through the Lych Gate from the path by the main road.
A church for the parish poor, built in 1848. This magnificent Victorian church was built in a fabulously ornate medieval style and was intended for the poor of the parish, who could not afford to pay for seats in Tetbury's other church, St Mary's.,
St Saviour's is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a designated Grade II listed building.
The Savior of the Apple Feast Day (sometimes the Saviour on the Hill)[1] is an Eastern Slavic folk holiday, which is observed on August 19, falling on the Feast of the Transfiguration.
It is the most important of the three Saviour (Spas) days. The others are: honey savior, on August 14 (or August 1, Julian Calendar); and nut savior on August 29 (or August 16, Julian Calendar). (from Wiki)
Catedral de Cristo Salvador, Moscú - Cathedral of Christ the Saviour , Moscow - Храм Христа Спасителя, Москва
La catedral de Cristo Salvador (Redentor) de Moscú, cuya denominación oficial es Templo Catedralicio del Cristo Salvador (Redentor) del Patriarca de Moscú (en ruso Кафедральный Соборный Храм Христа Спасителя Патриарха Московского), es un templo de la Iglesia Ortodoxa Rusa situado en la ciudad de Moscú, construido en el siglo XIX según el proyecto del arquitecto Konstantín Ton. Se trata, además, de la iglesia ortodoxa más alta del mundo.
La catedral se encuentra en el centro de Moscú, cerca del Kremlin y sobre la orilla del río Moscova. Su construcción demoró casi 44 años y en 1883 se abrió al culto. En 1931 el templo fue destruido hasta los cimientos con explosivos, para dar lugar a la construcción del Palacio de los Sóviets. La iglesia fue reconstruida en la década de 1990 y volvió a ser consagrada en el año 2000.

The Cathedral of Christ the Saviour (Russian: Храм Христа Спасителя, Khram Khrista Spasitelya) is a Russian Orthodox cathedral in Moscow, Russia, on the northern bank of the Moskva River, a few hundred metres southwest of the Kremlin. With an overall height of 103 metres (338 ft), it is the tallest Orthodox Christian church in the world.
The current church is the second to stand on this site. The original church, built during the 19th century, took more than 40 years to build, and was the scene of the 1882 world premiere of the 1812 Overture composed by Tchaikovsky. It was destroyed in 1931 on the order of Soviet leader Joseph Stalin. The demolition was supposed to make way for a colossal Palace of the Soviets to house the country's legislature, the Supreme Soviet of the USSR. Construction started in 1937 but was halted in 1941 when Germany invaded the Soviet Union during World War II. Its steel frame was disassembled the following year, and the Palace was never built. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, the current church was rebuilt on the site between 1995 and 2000.
In 2018, it was reported that the foundations of the church were sinking and a massive campaign of underpinning and reconstruction was needed.
