Two of Transdev Lancashire United's large fleet of Wright Renown bodied Volvo B10BLEs meet in the rain at Blackburn's temporary bus station on 30 March 2015. Ex-Ambassador Travel example 205 (T125 OAH) is passed by 1044 (Y144 HRN), still with its first owner.

developed in Rodinal 1:50 for 21mins at 20 degrees.
Remodeling the living room means no big sound system. So I figured I might as well set up my headphones gear in the meantime. (and I see a couple spots I missed with the paint..)
Art is an effort to turn something normal or plain to something interesting or magical, something insignificant to something of awareness.
Science is the undeniably fact of what works and what not. The technical limitations, underlying concepts and the real differences among the materials, build quality and durability of the quality level.
The interplay of the two results in low probability of success, hence deriving great amount of surprise and satisfaction upon achievement. Hopefully with time and efforts, skills and knowledge can be greatly enhanced, applied and progressed in upward cycles.

And I am an active Twitter member since wednesday on: Twitter Account
As if you know me, I might hi to y'all for a small period, maybe just a week or two but I still will be visiting flickr now and then.
Reason for this small break is because I am still working 7 days this week and moving into my new house next week and first week of school is coming too.
Furthermore, I ordered my ND Grad Reverse Filter which will arriving coming week by which I want to introduce you guys to my new period of photography.
My focus then will lay on landscape photography only for which I want to study a bit more and as you are all aware of, that takes some time. Furthermore, I might delete all other pictures I not a fan of anymore but we will see. Hope to see you in less than two weeks guys!
Oh and guys, sorry for the skew horizon, still figuring out that one!
Not sure if it's because there are so many bus stops out of action due to road works, gas works and other necessary obstacles that we see quite a few of these signs indicating Temporary Bus Stop. This is a relatively new idea and passengers could very easily miss seeing it altogether.
My dad and I were walking down from Cafe Truva (just beside the temporary traffic lights in the picture) and we didn't notice this sign due to its positioning facing the wrong way from our direction!). It's only when you suspect something isn't normal that you decide to walk down to this sign and see what it says!
Meanwhile the proper bus stop (on the other side of this bus) has no warning or alert as to what's changed - and gone are the days when the flag would be covered up by a little fabric caver. And one wonders if drivers have eyes in the front, side and back of their heads having to notice such unclear signposts like this, especially on the first run of their shift.
At the Shore Volvo B9TL / Wright Eclipse Gemini 2, number 346 (SN59 BGZ) is on Service 22 as usual with its pink topping to identify one of three flagship services in the Capital and I must say how good the appearance of these buses is.
At seven years old the slogan Lothian's Buses Shine is one I'd endorse any day!
This photo could be better but the weather was abysmal; it was absolutely tipping it down. The bus stops at Ambury in Bath were used by Faresaver and setting down only but are now in use by First for some services displaced from the bus station to aid social distancing.
Streetlite 47442 SK63KNP was sent on loan from Bristol for additional services whilst 66720 WX54XDF had been displaced from its usual work at Wells depot whilst still retaining Mendip Explorer fleetnames.
The lights of Class 70 no.70815 are seen as the loco runs through the short tunnel which carries the A678 road overhead at Rishton, on the outskirts of Blackburn. The train is the 6E32 10:05 Preston Docks to Lindsey bitumen empties, photographed on 06/04/2021.
2021 represents a significant milestone in the history of the Phoenix Railway Photographic Circle, with the celebration of our 50th anniversary. Phoenix was set up in spring 1971, and was created to promote an alternative approach to railway photography. Why not take a look at the PRPC website at www.phoenix-rpc.co.uk/index.html.
I have been the hospital since last Friday with what began as concern for a heart attack happening. The good news is no heart attack, other tests are good. Today is nuclear stress test which hopefully will turn out ok.
yes, i slipped on invisible sidewalk ice yesterday! this temporary plaster cast will be replaced in five day's time with a fibreglass one, if all goes well.
Our little backyard pond is quickly buried in autumn/winter leaves as seasonal (Santa Ana) winds rip leaves off of trees and deposit them about. Our goldfish are on their own to survive, with little assistance form us, save keeping their reservoir full and scraping leaves off the top eventually.... Camarillo, California
Port Talbot. South Wales. The fire is part of the Banksy artwork that recently appeared on a garage wall. The main part, unseen here, is of a boy getting ready to play in what he mistakenly thinks is snow. January 2019.
In the National Bus Company poppy-red livery complete with City of York fleetnames and coat of arms, ECW bodied Leyland Olympian A686 MWX is now a preserved bus, and was used for the Metro 40 event (running shuttles to the First depot at Bowling Back Lane). Aside from a brief period between 1987 and 1989 where this was in Bradford, this double decker bus has spent its working life in York and saw no less that 5 different liveries (6 if you include an advert livery):- NBC Red and white, Yorkshire Rider's Rider York variant, 1997 Rider York (Firstbus) 'Stripes', 1999 Rider York (First) two-tone green with gold fleetnames, and 2001-2006 Firstgroup Barbie 2 livery. The bus was withdrawn in 2006 as I recall, temporarily replaced by East lancs Lolynes from the Somerset and Avon fleet (I have some photos of them favourited) until the FTR arrived in May 2007.
This is a bus I have a personal affinity with... My first years of life were in the Dringhouses are of York, the number 4 bus being our service into the city (and back then mums folded up buggies to get onto the bus, not forcing other people to stand or even suggesting a person in a wheelchair should alight as some modern mums might do) - this Olympian would regularly show up (as well as others and Bristol VR's); a few years on I was living in the Huntington Road area of York close to the Rowntrees factory, and used the 1 and 3 buses to the city (of which this bus again was a regular)... between 1997 and 2002 this bus also became a regular on my school bus route from Huntington School, bring back memories of me changing the destination from upstairs!! During all this time the bus had the Yorkshire Rider fleet number of 5194, until about 2003 when it gained the Firstgroup national number of 30679. Up until about 1997 this bus had been fitted with opening hoppers on the front upper deck windscreen. The interior of this bus (all except some addition promotional material) is exactly as I last remembered it nearly 10 years ago, the seat covers and the ticket machine are all still the same.
Another worthy note for this bus is that it was the very first bus in the UK to use contravision / contravinyl for an overall advertisement livery - the livery in question being for Smarties, the campaign of "Only Smarties have The Answer" - back then Smarties were being produced locally at the Haxby Road Nestlé Rowntrees chocolate factory.

I thought I was winding down my 5 days at Auschwitz when I took this image of a slave labor women's barracks...at the back of the camp closest to Krema II. This disgusting building, like all of the brick buildings of Birkenau, was constructed quickly by slaves using the bricks of the deconstructed buildings that were on this land before being annexed by the Nazis. This is built on wet marshy land with no foundation and no insulation. It was not built to keep occupants alive for very long. The conditions were appalling and promoted disease and illness.
What I didn't realize at the moment this was taken was that the reason I came, which had not been very clear to me, was about to become clearer.
The camp was deserted at this time and I was alone. The weather was clear and cold with a cutting wind.
