It's not often you see two short haired blondes in the same photo! I found myself in front of the camera with the fabulous Mandy EyeCandy at November's Big Night Out in Milton Keynes.
A every day sight at New Street at this time, Class 86 86229 runs into Platform 10 with a Manchester to Cardiff service, standing on the right is Class 46 46036 which will take the train forward. 15/03/1977.

Lance Cpl. Alexander Morris, a rifleman with Battalion Landing Team 3rd Battalion, 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit, sights through his rifle scope during dry-fire training in Djibouti, Feb. 22, 2015. A contingent of MEU Marines was ashore in Djibouti conducting sustainment training in order to maintain proficiency while deployed. The 24th MEU is embarked on the ships of the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group and deployed to maintain regional security in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations.

Sometimes we meet very special people in our lives that really touch us.
Yesterday I met someone very special. And I really hope he stays in my life.......
Day 19 [1-19-2016]
Back to classes. Today was quite the busy day. I started off the day driving around with Dee and Andrew on a little back to school scavenger hunt while Burlington was being hit with strong wind and snow showers making the drive slippery and dangerous. Thank got we made it back safe and sound with everything we needed leaving me with my first and only class of the day which was the next class in my cinema history studies. This picture was taken through the frosted window of my classroom. I have seen the sunset from this view on numerous occasions but seeing it through the light clouds with the snow covering the ground, its a whole new beauty. This snow is here to stay for the next few months and I am starting to love it.
Can't wait to see what the next day brings!
The demise of the former RhB Class Ge 6/6" locomotives has seen the regular use of Ge 4/4"' machines as well as the smaller Ge 4/4" units on freight trains. In this view taken a Bever, refurbished 650 had charge of the Albula Valley freight 5129, the 10:05 Chur GB to Samedan.

What a delightful sighting last night! The first time I went out with my hubby it was in his red '65 Ford Falcon. We spotted this at our Lakewood Water District office last night and I just had to get a shot of this old beauty. Appears to be all original and in excellent condition. We were a bit jealous - we want it!
Actually, our neighborhood is a wealth of old classics and new ones waiting to follow their lead. On our block alone there are five homes that have "collectibles" stored in the garage and in storage rentals. You guessed it, we're one of those homes.
This whirling image features a bright spiral galaxy known as MCG-01-24-014, which is located about 275 million light-years from Earth. In addition to being a well-defined spiral galaxy, MCG-01-24-014 has an extremely energetic core, known as an active galactic nucleus (AGN), so it is referred to as an active galaxy. Even more specifically, it is categorised as a Type-2 Seyfert galaxy. Seyfert galaxies host one of the most common subclasses of AGN, alongside quasars. Whilst the precise categorisation of AGNs is nuanced, Seyfert galaxies tend to be relatively nearby ones where the host galaxy remains plainly detectable alongside its central AGN, while quasars are invariably very distant AGNs whose incredible luminosities outshine their host galaxies.
There are further subclasses of both Seyfert galaxies and quasars. In the case of Seyfert galaxies, the predominant subcategories are Type-1 and Type-2. These are differentiated from one another by their spectra — the pattern that results when light is split into its constituent wavelengths — where the spectral lines that Type-2 Seyfert galaxies emit are particularly associated with specific so-called ‘forbidden’ emission. To understand why emitted light from a galaxy could be considered forbidden, it helps to understand why spectra exist in the first place. Spectra look the way they do because certain atoms and molecules will absorb and emit light very reliably at very specific wavelengths. The reason for this is quantum physics: electrons (the tiny particles that orbit the nuclei of atoms and molecules) can only exist at very specific energies, and therefore electrons can only lose or gain very specific amounts of energy. These very specific amounts of energy correspond to certain light wavelengths being absorbed or emitted.
Forbidden emission lines, therefore, are spectral emission lines that should not exist according to certain rules of quantum physics. But quantum physics is complex, and some of the rules used to predict it use assumptions that suit laboratory conditions here on Earth. Under those rules, this emission is ‘forbidden’ — so improbable that it’s disregarded. But in space, in the midst of an incredibly energetic galactic core, those assumptions don’t hold anymore, and the ‘forbidden’ light gets a chance to shine out towards us.
[Image Description: A spiral galaxy. It appears to be almost circular and seen face-on, with two prominent spiral arms winding out from a glowing core. It is centred in the frame as if a portrait. Most of the background is black, with only tiny, distant galaxies, but there are two large bright stars in the foreground, one blue and one red, directly above the galaxy.]

Ooh, and all I taught her was everything
Ooh, I know she gave me all that she wore
And now my bitter hands chafe beneath the clouds
Of what was everything.
Oh, the pictures have all been washed in black, tattooed everything...

Climbing the highest mountain in Madeira ‘Pico Ruivo’ is thirsty work, luckily just visible though this gateway is a welcome sight, the Casa do Abrigo Mountain Hut Cafe, time for a quick refreshments break before tackling the final ascent Taken: 02/06/2024
Maïdo is called the 'balcony of Réunion' and seeing the sunrise there is a sight to behold. But we were not the only ones who knew this.
We got up nice and early to drive up the mountain. Driving in a column of cars, what must have been over a hundred switch-backs, we drove up the the mountain until we were nearly there...
That's where the column stopped. All available parking spaces were taken and the road was too narrow to back up. Time was ticking. After all this driving I was NOT going to miss that sunrise!
So I took the decision to double park as a few others before me did and hurry up the path. Why did I carry that bloody tripod?!
Strong winds howled around our heads as we made it to the ridge but it was the view that took our breaths away.
Mobile Phone - Photo taken near Valley of Fire Highway.
This was a fleeting moment of euphoria (at least for me). This was the first time I had seen a full (double?) rainbow on the way back to Las Vegas from Valley of Fire. There was no time to set the big camera but thanks to the panorama feature of smartphones, I was able to take this shot.
