And whilst I'm uploading a bit of dashcam footage, here's a clown in an Audi.
This is on the short stretch of average speed camera controlled 50 limit towards Stockport on the M60. I'm doing 50mph here, which perhaps gives an indication of the Audi's speed.
The gap he pulled into behind the Kia and in front of the BMW can't have been more than a few car lengths. He exited at the junction.
Chris Rea's 'Driving Home For Christmas' would have been more appropriate here, as I was indeed driving home for Christmas.

If you are looking for an island with great white sand beaches, clear water swimming and a little adventure, Sharp island is for you. Just a short trip from Sai Kung pier, this is a great getaway both for sun seekers and hikers – even better if you want both.

Sharp Edges
Looks best viewed large
Taken for the 'Scott Kelby's World Wide Photo walk' shoot on 23rd August 2008.
The Upper Pasadena Arroyo is an amazing place for all kinds of architecture. American Cratsman by the Greene Brothers dominate, but there is much more. A Usonian Unitarian Neighborhood church anchors one end of Westmoreland Place, contrasting sharply with the Gamble House on the other. Around the corner on Prospect Crescent is the famous Frank Lloyd Right Millard House (La miiatura). Three are homes by Frederick Roehrig, Myron Hunt, and a little further out Train and Williams. There is so much to tease the sights and senses.
Most of the houses are protected withi one of two National Register Historic Districts: Park Place-Arroyo Terrace Historic District, and Pasadena Arroyo Parks and Recreation District. Some also are monuments in their own right.

Usonian-ish, with a nod to the old neighborhood church it replaced after a devistating fire.
4. White Sisters house, 1903
370 Arroyo Terrace

American Craftsman. As mentioned above, the Hawks and Bentz houses, both built in 1906, are near twins of each other. The green house in the rear is a treat.

645 Proospect Crescent
National Register of Historic Paces No. 76000493
Frank Lloyd Wright.
Lloyd Wright (1926 Studio addition).
Experimental in nature, it's the first of FLW's "Knit Block" or "Textile Block" houses. It gives the feel of a Mayan ruin - especially in it's current state of decay. The so-called famous view from the gates on Rosemont is almost unrecognizable through the overgrowth.
13. McMurran House, 1911
499 Prospect Terrace
Frederick L Roehrig
A versital Roehrig in the Mission Style.
14. Prospect Boulevard Gates, 1906
Prespect Blvd at Orange Grove
Charles and Henry Greene
The mature camphor trees with the gates create a picturesque setting. The extensive use of clinker brick is wonderful.
15. Duncan-Irwin House, 1900 (Enlarged in 1906)
20 N Grand Ave
Charles and Henry Greene
The Greenes added a second story and east wing to their original 1900 single-story bungalow. This large and beautiful now commands it's corner.
16. james A Colbertson House, 1902 & 1914 (Remodelled in 1953)
235 N Grand Ave
Charles and Henry Greene
Smith and Williams (1953 Remodel)
Not often is the term "Modernist" used to describe a Greene & Greene house. But here we have it. In 1953 the architecture team of Smith & Williams were commissioned to "update" this American Craftsman bungalow to a 1950's Modernist. To be honest, I don't think the result is all that bad. Thankfully the architects made the changes on condition the Tiffany glass front door and pergola around the property be saved.
17. Van Rosem House, 1904
210 N Grand Ave
Charles and Henry Greene
This house looks like the Greenes might have been going for something Bavarian, but stopped short of the full effect, causing it to look more like a large barn. (Not a bad thing BTW).
18. Myron Hunt House, 1905
200 N Grand Ave
Myron Hunt
Exactly what you'd expect from Myron Hunt's personal residence. Restrained, simple, American Craftsman.
19. Newcomb House, 1900 & 1922
141 N Grand Ave
Unknown
A huge Tudor mansion, complete wiith servant quarters and gate house.
20. Park House, 1904

Unknown
A Colonial Revival anomoly in a mostly Craftsman neighborhood.

90 N Grand Ave
Charles and Henry Greene
American Craftsman with alterations.
22. Queen Anne House, c 1887
203 N Grand Ave
Unknown
Probably one of the first houses in the neighborhood (if not the first). Moved aparently several times. The belfry is it's best attribute.
23. Charles Sumner Greene House
1901, 1906, 1912 & 1914
368 Arroyo Terrace
Charles and Henry Greene
There was a crooked house, on a crooked lane . . . Depite the frequent tinkering, the Charles Greene's personal residence is one of the most charming in the neighborhood.
24 & 25 Bavarian Hunting Lodges,1924
373 & 405 Mira Vista Terrace
Train and Williams
Long after tastes had run to more classical architecture, Train and Williamms continued in the American Craftsman tradition, that they helped bring to Southern California. These two Bavarian Hunting Lodges are typical, and excellent examples of their tallent.

Sharp Edge - Blencathra.
The view from the outlet of Scales Tarn, the impressive serrated outline of Sharp Edge is viewed.
On closer inspection, five climbers can be seen traversing the ridge.

Today I was able to test the Tamron 150-600mm in very cold weather. It was 7° Fahrenheit with a well below 0 wind-chill. This is at least a month earlier than I was expecting. The lens performed perfectly both autofocus and vibration control performed perfectly. The cold had no effect on the lens that I could see.
Here is a shot of a sharp-shinned hawk that has been stalking our feeders.

I wanted to test some random lenses of mine to see how they compared in sharpness. I used the same aperture, shutter speed and ISO except on the 70-210 (it needed to be at F/8 to be sharp)
These are all 100% crops
Our Daily Challenge Topic Sharp. March 8/11
Sharp pins. Some of the tops are melting from me ironing over them when sewing.
I was watching and photographing the birds at my bird feeders this morning when they all bolted. I kept looking to see what frightened them away when I saw a small hawk in the bushes. I think it may be a Sharp-shinned Hawk.
