A few hardy mountaineers brave the conditions and tackle Sharp Edge. Head for heights required. I took the easier route which was still testing in the conditions
My husband called out from the kitchen and I came on the run, camera in hand, with no time to think. I managed 5 frames, including this, the clearest of the lot, through the window before this sharp shinned hawk continued his hunt elsewhere. This image is very tightly cropped.
When I encountered the Bottesford school buses 'by accident' in June, the only one I saw but didn't manage to photograph (aside from the phantom Centrebus) was a Sharpes ex-Dublin B7TL which made the turn up Belvoir Road. Of course, I couldn't have been happier when I saw this approaching and was able to get a photo of the thing I missed last time, in some pretty nice weather conditions, too!
I don't know if it's the exact same bus from June or not (most likely not), but it doesn't matter as this is one of the Sharpes ALX400s which I haven't seen before and so is a tick in the book no matter what. The plate UXI 476 I have seen before, in fact, when it was attached to an Alexander PS that Sharpes were using on a University of Nottingham shuttle in 2015.
Belvoir Road, Bottesford, 16.9.22
Sharp looking Kenworth T800 belonging to Nelson Trucking out of Seattle, WA parked in Vancouver, WA in September 2018.
Here we have the second transistor radio released by Sharp (Hayakawa Electric Co., Ltd.) in mid 1957.
This model sported the nickname "Peppy" in a Sharp ad from the summer of 1957. Methinks Sharp was taking the term "pet name" a bit too literally . ;-)

A complete entry on this model will eventually appear on my site, including chassis pics, a bit of history, and more stories of spicy pet names.

Thanks to everyone who views this photo, adds a note, leaves a comment and of course BIG thanks to anyone who chooses to favourite my photo .... Thanks to you all!
And trust me, this is sharp enough!
Close-ups of metallic surfaces fascinate me, it's very interesting to see the micro-details of what is seemingly a flawless surface at the naked eye.
This is one of my SAKs (the Huntsman by Victorinox), something that I usually carry while hiking in nature and taking photos! A seriously great tool.
Again experimenting with macro and flash, I took a bunch of different photos while changing the position and direction of the flash units to see how that influences light, shadow and, to a certain degree, colour.
Searcher XL - Japanese import. In immaculate condition. This 1980 Sharp model has some super cool features so i thought deserved a good photograph once i got it back from the service engineer.
Dorothea Sharp was born in Dartford in Kent in 1874 but it was not until the age of twenty-one that she began her artistic education in earnest. She soon moved to Paris where she was greatly influenced by the work of the Impressionists, which is evident in the spontaneous style and strong sense of colour and light that she is so well known for. Techniques, such as outlining figures with bright colours, were also adopted by Sharp after seeing the paintings of Matisse and van Gogh. In the mid 1940s she returned to London where she lived until her death in 1955.

Seen this morning right next to one of the feeders ... female Sharp -shinned hawk. She left hungry...
He was born on or near our house and I've photographed him several times but this is my best shot to date.
What graces all these little crosses have been. They are the very best thing in our life here. It seems they are so small. They do their work. They are coming in greater abundance now. How God works on your soul by these obscure and unremarkable sufferings that cleanse and drain your wounds. I am glad of every kind of trouble I have had and thank God in advance for all the trials that are to come. Other more pleasant graces—minor orders—the writing job, to some extent. All the reading, all the hours of prayer. God has taught me to find myself more in Him or lose myself more: it comes to the same thing.

Towards the end of the day, back in Nottingham, this was pretty much the last thing we spotted before calling it quits due to the fading light. Sharpes ex-Dublin Alexander bodied Volvo B7TL VJI 625 is bizarrely parked up at the side of Maid Marian Way in Nottingham city centre.

This 3’6” gauge 4-8-0 wood burning loco was one of a batch built by Sharp, Stewart of Glasgow in 1896 for the Cape Government Railways, later sold to the Zambesi Sawmills Railway, one of the longest logging railways in the world. When this was taken over by Zambia Railways in the early 1970s, this loco was bought by David Shepherd and moved to static display at Whipsnade where it is seen on 18th September 1982 alongside part of the 2’6” gauge Whipsnade and Umfolozi Railway running around the Safari Park. The loco was subsequently donated to the Science Museum and has been displayed at York and Shildon.

Lucius Annaeus Seneca: On entering a temple we assume all signs of reverence. How much more reverent then should we be before the heavenly bodies, the stars, the very nature of God!
John Muir: All the wild world is beautiful, and it matters but little where we go, to highlands or lowlands, woods or plains, on the sea or land or down among the crystals of waves or high in a balloon in the sky; through all the climates, hot or cold, storms and calms, everywhere and always we are in God's eternal beauty and love. So universally true is this, the spot where we chance to be always seems the best.
