Reviewing works from 2013-2015. Reworking some of them with new approaches and techniques.
This gander wanted to see if I had any kind of treat... other than a quick camera shot or sassy word.. lol
This was meant to be just a recce as I favour a good sunset (ok we don't seem to get those atm) but the walk from where you park the car is longer then I expected especially when I've been suffering from a bit of a Lyme flare up this week. However for me poppies are enough of a motivation to shake off any aches and pains!!
The light and shadows I think were enough for me to come away with a couple of shots that weren't completely flat but I do favour that golden light
I hope to return before they go over! And summer where are you?
CP 2-244 rockets east under the Mount Pleasant signals with a BNSF ACe in the lead, and behind the pair of barns from April 19th's GPS train on the Hamilton Sub. This particular 244 was just the ACe and a single autorack until West Toronto, where they were requested to back into Lambton and grab the empty ballast train that had been sitting since the night before and take it back to Toronto Yard.

It's not backwards. Second Life is weird.
House is the Guitar House from AITUI December Arcade gacha.
This Christmas bauble was hand beaded with sequins and pins by me. In usually make these baubles for others as gifts, but on occasion I make one or two baubles for myself. This is one such bauble.
The theme for "Looking Close on Friday" for the 20th of December is "sequins", so I thought I would show you this special bauble I chose to make for myself. If you would like to see the other baubles I have made as gifts for friends over the years, you can find them in this album: www.flickr.com/photos/40262251@N03/albums/72157649901152375/. I hope you like my choice of subject for this week's theme, and that it makes you smile!
As this is the last "Looking Close on Friday" before Christmas, I should just like to take this opportunity to wish everyone in the group a very happy Festive Season. May it be filled with happiness and joy for you all.
Each bauble I make is 15 centimetres in diameter and contain hundreds of sequins, varying in number depending upon the complexity of the pattern and the type of sequins I use. Most sequins in this bauble are 5mm in diameter, except the large star sequins which are 10mm, the sunburst sequins which are 12 mm and the small gold border sequins which are 2mm and very, very fiddly. The sunburst sequins are French and are known as "éclate de soleil" - "sunbursts". Depending upon the colour of the sequin, I will use either a gold or a silver pin to attach it to the bauble.
These baubles are smaller than some others I do, however because it is a complex pattern which starts from the inside and is worked outwards in ever larger circles, each bauble takes approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours per side.
It is however, a labour of love which I do to pass the time throughout the year.
This is as much of the sunset we saw from Mynydd Gelliwastad last evening as we turned around and drove home. Taken in the same spot as in my previous upload.
This is the view from the start of my walk yesterday,up alongside Blackden brook and up onto Kinder scout....Its a great route, one of the best.
This is the second part of two shot on a Sunday afternoon in rather threatening weather conditions that quickly turned to fine drizzle, then real rain.
Out of camera jpeg with no edits apart from some slight sharpening.
Olympus Pen E-P5 with an early 1950s C mount movie camera lens, the Kern Switar 25mm f/1.5 (approx 50mm equivalent on MFT). I was curious to see what it would make of the nature scenes and the conditions.
I still think it's one of the nicest lenses I have. But scarcely usable on APS-C (strong vignetting) and not at all on full frame.
This structure is what is left of the largest silver stamp mill of it's time. Blair, Nevada was a boom town of 700 people from 1906 to 1915. Low grade ore caused the town to go bust. Inside, graffiti dating back to the 1940's covers the walls.

Also, blog post!
Hope you're having a lovely day, flickrers :)

This is a painting I just completed. It took me forever and a day! Anyway, I worked off a photo that my neighbor Bruce showed me of a trip he went on in 1998 that was a photo op trip for Range Magazine and Klamath Herald news paper. The setting is in the Kiger Gorge on the east side of the Steens Mountains. Bruce is riding a mule named Rosie and he is ponying his other mule Rowdy who passed away a couple years ago sadly. I met Rowdy several times myself.
Anyway, Bruce showed me his photo album with the pictures from that trip because he thought there might be some inspiration in there for a painting. When I saw his photo of this, I knew I had to paint it.
So this is it.

There is a little park by the water on my way to work where I take my photos for my 52 Friday's Project and there is this one little tree that stands alone. This morning the sunrise was so pretty and a lovely arched limb from the tree was a perfect way to meet the challenge.
This sunset was a true winter delight. The small cabin is a rewarding photo subject at any season. But this time, it was absolutely amazing. The right light under the right condition.
This is a shot of the Deichstraße in Hamburg, Germany with the famous Elbphilharmonie in the back. The Hafen City is nice for photographers and very modern and new, but one of the oldest streets in Hamburg is actually right next to it. Deichstraße was first mentioned in 1304 and contains carefully restored houses that are actually all that is left of the old harbour district. Worth a photo walk at least.
