Sitting atop Devil's Head is the Colorado Devil's Head Fire Lookout. Originally built in 1912 and then reconstructed in 1951, to make it a bit larger to accommodate more equipment. At 9748 ft in elevation, the 14 ft. square cab has a 360 degree view of the surrounding National Forest area. This walkway.....is only about 2 ft wide.

ARRIVA Buses Wales Bristol VRT 3992 - YMB 512W is pictured in Chester with Stagecoach Leyland Olympian 39939 - D251 FYM alongside setting off from the depot to operate the CitySightseeing Tour. The former Crosville DVG512 has left its home in Rhyl for the last time and is setting off for a new life in preservation and is appropriately in the spiritual home of the company - Chester, where the Head Office at Crane Wharf was once situated.

We came across a lot of cars parked on the side of the road. When we asked what everyone was looking at, we were told that wild dogs had been spotted. We waited and looked, but all we could see was lots of grass and empty space, so after a few minutes we decided to move on. As we drove off we happened to look in the bush to see four wild dogs running down towards the car nowhere near where the other cars were parked. It shows that most sightings in the parks are a matter of luck.

It's so much better on Large and Black, please take a look!
in the comments there are some more sights, i tried hdr the first time, and i'm quite happy 'bout the outcomes. :)
Another first sighting of this fly. I thought it was a green bee but I didn’t see it on the bee ID photos. I’ll have to try hover flies. If anyone has seen this before please let me know. 🙏😊 Thank you so much for your visit, faves and comments, I do appreciate every one even if I overlooked your comment. Hopefully I one day can have the time to thank everyone for supporting me and my iPhone photo journey. Well I’m about ready to open the box that my new Canon T7 is in! YAY!!
The dark, menacing silhouette of a Mi-171 swooping towards me is really intimidating. I love the sight and sound of the Mi-8/17 helicopters

DSC_5863 - 302 - LK03 GHA - Dennis Trident/Plaxton President - Liverpool City Sights (Sightseeing Liverpool; Ex-Metroline TP443) - Liverpool, Old Haymarket 11/01/17
I am sitting at home with Covid looking at this photo and thinking "this is not Christmas fare", but it isn't Christmas yet...so I am going to post it.
Two turrets in front, plus this one in back, make for 9 of these formidable 16" cannons that fired the projectiles (shells) shown to the right of the turret. Even if the battleship became obsolete by the end of WWII, this was still an awesome sight. I cannot even imagine what those guns would have sounded like when they fired, although I have seen some videos that give an idea.
The ship probably needed a lot of its (water) displacement just to absorb the concussion from firing (otherwise known as the reaction in "for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction").
And again, if you served in the Armed Forces, you have my admiration!

Offshore Magheroarty, County Donegal, Ireland
This little island of Inishbofin, meaning (Island of the white cow) lays just off-shore Magheroarty Beach. Only 100 years ago there were 150 permanent inhabitants living here but today there is only an estimated 36 islanders. Inishbofin has no shops, pubs or hotels etc so all supplies needed to survive are brought over from the mainland by boat.
But what this island lacks in modernism, it certainly makes up for in nature by having 2 stunning sandy cove beaches side by side. Plus lets not forget that 360 degree view that can be obtained from anywhere on this island which overlooks Donegal’s majestic shore & islands. These 2 smaller nearby islands are ‘Inishdooey’ & ‘Carrickirragh’. Sadly both are totally uninhabited today. On the distant horizon can be seen the larger populated 'Tory Island'.
Do you ever just wish to escape this ever-advancing, overpopulating world we are forced to adapt within & simply walk alone across an island like this with no mobile phones or traffic in sight? I have said it before & I will say it again... "I would happily move to any of these islands today if I could" Someday I will do it

That is it , a glass portal to see what is flowing in the pipe .
Shot taken for Saturday Self Challenge 28/05/2022 -- Glass .
This is in fact a sight glass seen through the front panel of a dry cleaning machine ( the hole is about 2 - 2 1/2 inches diameter ) , it allows the operator to monitor the flow of solvent and it's condition as it flows from one of the tanks and into the drum to clean the clothes/household items etc . There are usually 2 tanks , one is the working tank and the other is the pure solvent tank where the freshly distilled solvent from the still is condensed and flows into .
Did you know the solvent is used over and over again for cleaning , it is filtered near constantly and regularly it is also dumped to the still where it boils to vapour, passes through the condenser before going into the clean tank . What is left in the still is all the muck and grunge from the cleaning plus remains of the detergents added and it is a smelly black gooey substance from runny to solid matter and is a right mess to rake out on a regular basis . As a legal requirement each litre of solvent put into the machine is expected to clean at least 80 kilos dry weight of clothes/curtains etc !!
One important reason to keep a watch on the solvent passing the sight glass is to ensure the slovent remains clear and with no colour , if it goes red =PANIC= , that means there has been a colour bleed (red is the most often bleed you see ) . Cheap import garments and high price so called designer wear are most often the culprits !! So do not ignore the sight glass - you can relax once the machine goes into the dry cycle !!
I have also noted the inside of the sight glass has a lot of tiny dots of condensation on the inside - the machine had been turned on but not warmed up at this stage . I was surprised as I did not notice this until I put the shot onto the computer - the shot was a very quick couple of snaps hand held under fluorescent lighting .
You can see in the first comment box the machine frontage and the sight glass sitting top left of the loading door .
After that then Iron Maiden did a track just for this occasion with " These Colours Don't Run " -----------
Just thought , this shot seems to remind me of HAL 9000
This crossing was part of a walk we took around Tanworth-in-Arden, a field path crosses here. Returning with camera and tripod a class 172/1 was recorded, it was working 2K49 the 13.26 Stratford-upon-Avon to Kidderminster service. A few hundred yards to the left is Wood End tunnel.
On first sight I was amused by the sign with the low loader, I suppose H&S insist upon a warning sign but the crossing would be used by cows and sheep, they have a much shorter wheelbase and better suspension than an artic.
The exposure was 1/20th second @ f22, under exposed by 5 stops using exposure compensation.
