This is a photo of tree reflections on a lake in Pine Grove Park. The image has been mirrored and copied twice to be symmetrical. The detail is best seen full screen.
This is my first attempt a time-lapse video. I shot it using the GX7s time-lapse facilitate and put the images together in Cyber link 12. The film was shot at Lyme Regis beach and Hardy Monument at sunset. The music is an excerpt from a piece I wrote and recorded a few years back, had great fun making this and I'd like to thank Sam for her patients.

The North Shore Yacht Club is an historically significant--not to mention architecturally significant--part of California's legacy. The North Shore Yacht club was the whimsical design of noted architect Albert Frey, who just happened to be a resident of the Coachella Valley. Completed in 1958 by developers Ray Ryan and Trav Rogers, North Shore Beach Yacht Club was one of the largest marinas in Southern California and carried a price tag of $2 million. Celebrities like The Beach Boys, Jerry Lewis, and the Marx Brothers partied there and / or docked boats at the marina.

This location is featured in the music video Swing Out Sister - Fooled By A Smile: www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlFIj0DZh6A
Abandoned for a few decades, this place has now been restored.
Thanks to federal stimulus funding and the work of the East Valley Historical Society, the North Shore Yacht Club has been renovated to its original appearance.
The revamped club will serve as a senior center, community center, and museum - the latter under the direction of North Shore preservationist Jennie Kelly, who has already helped bring the long-extinct boat races back to the sea. The new museum is where the tale of Albert Frey's shimmering yacht club - with its fantastic ups and downs - will finally be told.
The building and museum will be open to the public in the very near future.

This was gonna be a blog post but I realized almost all these items are no longer for sale. Hair from Little Bones.
This Panoramic windowed Atlantean was new to Greater Glasgow PTE(LA1204), in 10/1977. GGPTE later became Strathclyde PTE with buses later carrying this livery with the Strathclyde's Buses fleetname. After a lengthy restoration which was completed in early 2022, it is seen here climbing A5094 New Road, Whitehaven, on 30/04/2023, at the end of the second and final day of the excellent 'Leyland National 51' event, organised by the Workington Transport Heritage Trust, to commemorate fifty-one years since the entry into service of the first National to be constructed at the Lillyhall plant that is situated near Workington. This event as organised after the successful 'Leyland National 50' event held last year. There were several non-Leyland National vehicles here that had brought enthusiast groups with them. © Peter Steel 2023.
This female Magnificent Frigate Bird was concerned her chick was getting too hot. So she moved over and put its head under her body to keep the sun off. Second image in first comment!

This compilation video shows a chase of ARR 4006 as it leads a freight train south toward Seward. Filming locations include Rainbow, Bird Point, and Moose Pass, AK. As seen in the video, this train departed Anchorage well before sunrise which, at this time of year, didn't occur until ~1000L, so the first two locations were shot before the sun came up over the Chugach Mountains.
The tide in the Turnagain Arm, home of some of the largest boretides in the world, is on its way out. Photos and video along the Turnagain always turn out better when there's more water than not, so I was lucky to at least have some water present!
The final location in Moose Pass is, to me, a little slice of heaven. I just wish this location saw more than one or two trains per week in the winter time. If there were more trains, I'd probably camp out here for days at a time! As it is though, you have to take what you can get.
Also, Chris Laskowski, *this* is why you need to bring C. Vision Productions up here!
This is apparently the spot where Madonna was going to build her school for girls in Malawi before she got ripped off.
This manuscript was made around 1800 by an often persecuted group of Russian Christians, the “Old Believers.” Because this group frequently had its books confiscated and was denied the use of printing presses, its members continued to write important books such as this one by hand. This text chronicles and illustrates the story of a group of monks at the Solovetsky Monastery who opposed Nikon’s controversial reforms and endured a siege for eight years (1668-1676) before they were finally betrayed. Most of the monks were killed, though some escaped, and many went to the Vyg region, where the author of this book, Simeon Denisov (1682-1741), was a leader in the Old Believer community.

This is a statue of Skegness, or so we're lead to believe. He is very happy, very homosexual, and very drunk.
This is the view looking into the building seen in the previous three photos. I shot this from the doorway--I definitely did not feel like stepping inside, as in real life this looked a lot darker. Unquestionably the creepiest location I've ever photographed. View large on black.

Folded from A2 square of tissue foil...this was the first time I tried making a tissue foil larger than what the width of the alluminium foil roll allow me. The tissue paper is one piece but there are 2 stripes of foil. I used white glue which works really well.
I had like insane troubles with this one, I ended up having to crumple the paper inside so I don't really know if I did it right but whatever, I love the result, it looks super creepy.
*Also...many thanks to my brother who helped me with the foil. It came out without almost a single wrinkle or bubble.
A favourite from my own collection: this is a hybride between my 2 loveaffairs; Lego and Thunderbirds. This shows I'm not crazy; even Lego loves the spaceage of Gerry Anderson! Why? Because in 1965 Tb was suddenly hot in the UK, on tv, in the shops, with boys&girls. Gerry was the only one who used the term '2065', a thousand years later then the actual days the lived back then. Lego used that popularity in this ad to underline you could make even spaceships with Lego. This is almost the only outing into space by Lego, until about 8 years later with their own range of NASA-stuff in blue&white.
So this is my favorite sign in all of Madison, except maybe the one that says Perfect Body and is an auto body shop. But this is the one I shot. :-D
This was on a cool little Frigidaire fridge at St. Vincent de Paul that was already sold. That sucker would have been mine if it wasn't.
This is an LCAC (Landing Craft Air Cushion) which is a super badass hovercraft. It goes from land to ocean effortlessly and really fast.

This was the first view of snow on the mountains where we were heading for a few days skiing in the Victorian alps in 2005.
47626 stands at Darlington on 09/03/85.
This is where my interest in trains all started, the south end of Darlington Stations Platform 1 in 1974 or so. I spent many happy hours sat on those old 4 wheeled parcel trollies waiting for the next train to call, or zip by on the station avoiding lines.
Those were the days, classes 31, 37, 40, 45, 46, 47 & of course the 'Deltics' were regular performers.
I think it was about 4p for a platform ticket back then.
Great memories
