This cute and impressive wagtail gave me a good show and got used to me pretty quick. It is obviously a tough subject to photograph due to their size and speed. Out of the few thousands shots I took, a couple stood out of the acceptably Sharp that I managed to capture. This where it caught this flying insect display it’s impressive technic. I also liked that I captured the reflection. This has been captured along the Silh in Zurich.
Early morning on the Nanpiao Coal Railway and the first passenger service of the day is leaving the wayside platform at Shaguotun on its way to Sanjiazi. My little bridge camera was not up to moving subjects in what little light there was so it was 1/4 second at ISO 400 with predictable results. Despite the blur and noise, to me it still recaptures the unrepeatable atmosphere of that icy cold morning.
I've checked the manual, read the FAQs and raised a support query but, frankly, I don't think this is a known issue.
I should have given the film a bit more speed or a bit longer in the second developer bath. But you know I'm okay with this dark moody look and feel. I took a bit of work in post processing to get some details out, but overall, it looks like Tech Pan!

Position: Railway station Kladno, Czech Republic. This technical detail belongs to the steam locomotive "Parrot" made in Czechoslovakia. Locomotive series 477,0 is the last type of stream locomotive manufactured in the ČKD Praha for the Czechoslovak state railways.
Awhagaro is an ancient legendary warrior who has been protecting his homeland for centuries. He wields the elements of lightning, air and ice.
Awhagaro only appears when the island is in great danger and no one has ever seen him in peaceful time, so it’s still unknown if he actually exists or is just a legend made up by the island’s inhabitants to intimidate the ones who wish to invade the island. His origins are unknown as well, but some say that Awhagaro is a kaita comprised of a Toa of lightning, a Toa of air and a Toa of ice who somehow got stuck in the combined form, which explains his ability to wield three elements at once and his extraordinarily long lifespan.
1975
My first true stereo. In 1975 self-purchased at the local Technics dealer. To this day in good shape and so it sounds.
Technic Citroën 2CV Charleston.
This is a heavy MOD of Nico71's version. I bought his instruction and started modding it so it resembles the real car better. Still not perfect :)
The roof line is just 1 stud wide and runs more smoothly.
HOG steering.
seats are different and the front seat have been moved 1 stud backwards and the back seat 2 studs backwards.
And a lot of detail modifications, like the bumpers, door color line.
Just like the original is has steering, ultra soft suspension and opening doors, hood and trunk.
I've shot the HH11 local dozens of times. It's an easy target and it's always a single GP38-2.
I've also shot from this location at CP Harrisburg from atop the State Street Bridge dozens of times. It's a spot I like and it's also easy access from my office in Harrisburg.
I heard the HH11 wanting to come out of the yard with GP38-2 #5179 and knowing 5178 was a high hood I had hoped the same for the #5179.
Well no such luck as I could spot that admiral cab from a mile away.
As he fired up the bright lights I ratcheted the shutter down to 1/6 and decided to grab the big and wide pan.
Why? Well if I don't make it, nothing lost. But if I do...well I've just won gold in the foamer olympics. LOL.
Thought it was time I gave my "freedom fighters" a vehicle ; )
I'm still going to keep messing with this to make it much more beat up and well used but I want to avoid it looking incomplete instead. All in all a fun build and without the MG and flag etc etc it also serves well as just a regular jeep for different kinds of scenes.

Der Teufelsberg ist ein Trümmerberg im Westen Berlins und mit 120 m Höhe die zweithöchste Erhebung des Stadtgebiets. Der Hügel – mit Aussicht über das Naturschutzgebiet Grunewald und die Havel – liegt im Ortsteil Grunewald (Bezirk Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf). Er hat seinen Namen vom nahe gelegenen Teufelssee. Auf dem Berg befinden sich die markanten Bauten einer Flugüberwachungs- und Abhörstation der US-amerikanischen Streitkräfte. Nach dem Abzug der Militärs wurde die Anlage von 1991 bis 1999 als Flugsicherungsradar-Station genutzt. Seitdem stehen die Gebäude leer. (Wikipedia)
