Common Yellowthroat (Geothlypis trichas)
Swan Lake Nature Sanctuary, Saanich, BC
Doing the splits on two moving grass stalks, that's skill. Doing it while carrying a bug? That's talent!

Named for the nearby Pripyat River, Pripyat was founded on 4 February 1970, the ninth nuclear city in the Soviet Union, for the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant. It was officially proclaimed a city in 1979, and had grown to a population of 49,360 before being evacuated a few days after the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster.
Though Pripyat is located within the administrative district of Ivankiv Raion, the abandoned city now has a special status within the larger Kiev Oblast (province), being administered directly from Kiev. Pripyat is also supervised by Ukraine's Ministry of Emergencies, which manages activities for the entire Chernobyl Exclusion Zone.
Access to Pripyat, unlike cities of military importance, was not restricted before the disaster as nuclear power stations were seen by the Soviet Union as safer than other types of power plants. Nuclear power stations were presented as being an achievement of Soviet engineering, where nuclear power was harnessed for peaceful projects. The slogan "peaceful atom" (Russian: mirnyj atom) was popular during those times. The original plan had been to build the plant only 25 km (16 mi) from Kiev, but the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences, among other bodies, expressed concern about it being too close to the city. As a result, the power station and Pripyat were built at their current locations, about 100 km (62 mi) from Kiev. After the disaster the city of Pripyat was evacuated in two days.

Anderlues, Chaussée de Charleroi, 1973. Rechtdoor lijn 90 richting Binche, linksaf lijn 92 naar Thuin. Iets verderop kruist lijn 90 de alleen nog voor goederenvervoer gebruikte spoorlijn Piéton-Anderlues.
De spoorlijn is in 1989 opgebroken, de tramsplitsing is daarentegen nog aanwezig, al zijn alleen de afslaande sporen nog in gebruik. Over de splitsing heen ligt inmiddels een autowegviaduct
Anderlues, Chaussée de Charleroi, 1973. Right ahead line 90 towards Binche (with railway crossing), to the left line 92 to Thuin.
The crossing goods railway Piéton-Anderlues was broken up in 1989, but the tramway bifurcation is still there, although only the tracks to the left are in use. The junction is covered by a highway overpass now
For years, decades in some cases, I've had in the garage junks of wood too hard or thick for me to chop into splits, and too big for the fireplace. My wife gave me (the promise of) a log-splitter for my birthday a few months ago; a few days ago it arrived. I am pleased to announce that all but two of those big junks are now split and ready for the fire.
Thorn Apple / datura stramonium. Ufford, Cambridgeshire. 24/08/21.
'THORN APPLE SEED CAPSULE.'
Detail of a spiny seed capsule on a scarce Thorn Apple plant. It was unripe, so therefore still maturing and would increase in size until ready to split open.
The capsule eventually splits to reveal four chambers. If viewed closely, you can see two of the pale green 'rift lines', where splitting will occur. Contained in the chambers will be numerous black, kidney-shaped seeds.
BEST VIEWED LARGE.
It’s sad to see what we do to some of the trees in our neighborhoods. I'd say this makes a strong case for underground utility lines.

Also for Sliders Sunday: I did some tweaking in NX2 and added a dose of iPiccy's cartoonizer effect.
HSS, folks!
A chameleon on a tree doing the splits. Usually chameleons are active only during the night, but this one was searching during the afternoon for a spot where he would wait for insects. He moved quite quickly from branch to branch being very agile and well balanced.

Both Elsie and Roxy are doing gymnastics and aerial this year. Elsie is doing PE as an O level subject. Roxy takes affter Elsie in treating all the movements very seriously - and like Elsie, she is graceful too.
THE BANANA SPLITS BANANA BUGGY
Aurora – 832
1/18 Scale – 1969
Although stated on the box as being 1/25 scale, the Banana Buggy is approximately 1/18. Another scale discrepancy lies with the figures, which are slightly undersize in relation to the vehicle.
Colorado Springs, CO - There is a banana in there somewhere. I think it's hiding. It was fun taking pictures of this edible art piece but I think the best part was eating it.
I used a Godox V1 flash adjusted to 90° at the ceiling directly above the dessert.

Sometimes, just sometimes mind, I feel like there are many different versions of me in my head which are all trying to have their say. Luckily I can usually bitch slap them down and gain control in a second or two but this poor dear has no such luck. She's stuck with her multiple belligerent personalities nearly all day everyday and it is driving her close to madness. She is graced with an astounding beauty though so many men think that she is unbelievably amazing and that she should be their girlfriend. Unfortunately most men just can't handle those levels of craziness but if any of them had looked upon the Maskell-Williams sexy/crazy scale then they would have found out that it just wasn't going to work out...
Cheers

"Lux in Tenebris
Here stands before you the mightiest of the Valkyrie, the one who watches over the balance between Light and Darkness, the Emissiary of Chaos. Her name is Altheona, the Twilight Valkyrie
A noble warrior, versed in the arts of chaos, and capable of unleashing tremendous power to vanquish her foes, and restore the balance between the Light and Darkness when under threat.
Armed with an arsenal of mystical weapons forged with the very essence of those powers, Altheona a skillful combatant when the need arises. She can summon the weapons and fluidly transition between their combinations for maximum effect. Her Seraphic Spear and Shield of Virtue are her primary response to the minions of darkness. She can also call upon the shadows to bring forth her Hellforged Mace and Chthonian Shield to eliminate transgressors who serve the Light."
How overdue is this though!
For those of you who have been following me, you will have seen WIP's of this for several months. At some point I was done with it and I figured you guys might want to see it. So without further ado, here's a preview of my most perfect WIP to date: the Twilight Valkyrie!
I took a whole lot of (subconscious) inspiration from chaos-themed Yu-Gi-Oh! monsters, such as Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning, BLS - Envoy of the Evening Twilight, Tethys, Goddess of Light, and several others.
I have always been fascinated with the concept of perfect asymmetry, that splits a being completely between light and darkness, or any other similarly conflicting powers or phenomena. I have attempted several such MOC's in the past, such as Darklight Paladin and Draxx, Return of the Magnetomenace. I have also created an LDD collab with TheOneVeyronian depicting this concept as a chess game.
So there you have it! I hope you guys have enjoyed looking at this MOC, thanks in advance for likes/comments, and stay tuned for some more pics coming soon! Happy Holidays!
L551 splits the signals at mile 36 of the Halton sub on a super foggy day.
With a new set of vaders installed near by (you can see it along Main St. near the overpass) I wanted to catch a train here before their possible demise. The set of single head searchlights fills in the lack of scenery along the Halton sub as it makes its way through suburban Milton. Paired with the fog you can hardly make out the end of the train, it was a decent day until sunset when thing got too dark and wet for any good shots.
