I was waiting for that full smoky moon to rise above the trees the other night. I was on a foot bridge so I shot the moon through the bridge while I waited.
The older I get, the more impatient I am. Should be just the opposite.
Originally built as a private residence, said to have been occupied in 1795 by Benedictine monks expelled from France.
The building was licensed from the early 1800s, at least since 1817. Listed in Bagshaw's Directory of 1850. Known by various names, Tranmere Inn & Ferry House, Castle Hotel and became the Royal Castle by 1870. Acquired by Threlfalls brewery in mid 1890s and selling Whitbread beers into the 1980s.
Later known as Hotel California, Mr Davidson's Bar then Revolver before closure in 2018.
After closure the site was abandoned, vandalised then fire bombed on two successive nights. The property is now unsafe and photos of the interior show substantial damage.

These French wooden bobbins are tiny at only 1½" long. They date from the 1930s and still have plenty of silk thread on them. They're lying on top of some hand torn fabric ribbon and in the background is one mother-of-pearl end of a Victorian sewing spool.
For this week's Macro Mondays group theme, Multicolor.

Someone said to me about this pic - it seems like all the attention is on the guitar. I was worrying I was being a bad blogger for doing that, but I loved this pic and the designer accepted it.
Then I realized - yeah, this is a story about that guitar, and also about the person who used to play it. And I used the designer's items in that story. So yeah, that's valid I think. :)

Playing around with a seldom-used Yongnuo 50mm f1.8 - a fairly inexpensive prime lens that has proved better than I anticipated. I think the original single image was shot at ISO 800, so it's a tad noisy after squeezing the juice out of the RAW file

The Red Thread
In Swedish, the expression ”den röda tråden”, which means ”the red thread”, is used much like the English expression ”the common thread” - it describes a recurring theme or characteristic, or sometimes a guiding principle. The same expression is used in German: ”der rote Faden”. Maybe it exists in other languages too.
When I began thinking about this week’s Self Portrait Sunday theme, ”the red thread” came to mind. Over the last years, following the red thread has sort of become my theme song. I try to focus as much as I can on things that are really important to me personally, which to a great extent means working on developing my talents. I get better and better on prioritizing this over caring about what others might think, and over conventional notions and ideas on what constitutes a socially acceptable lifestyle. In short, I am trying my best to follow my red thread, even on days that it might seem hopelessly tangled. I detangle it bit by bit, and it makes my heart sing.
I sure am glad this guy was not aggressive as I Almost put my hand down on him! I was painting the deck and going around the bottom of the spindles. I had my hand on the railing, sort of steadying myself. When I straightened up.... there he was just inches from my hand! He posed really nicely for me though so I didn't squash him. :)
The elements of nature bond together; interwoven like threads of a fabric which make up the blanket of the universe.

West of downtown Chicago, Global I-bound UP doublestacks move from the Geneva to Rockwell subdivisions at Kedzie Avenue while Metra UP West Line train 39- officially, the first outbound of this line's evening rush- squeezes past. UP's California Avenue Yard, almost all of it used for Metra equipment, is to the left.

Having snapped "Pexford Pic" at Gauxholme, it seemed rude not to wait the extra half-hour and snap the freight behind it, the 8.59am Redcar Bulk Terminal - Fiddlers Ferry PS (6M17), especially seeing as it was a relatively rare coal movement. In this instance GBRf Shed 66701 is doing the honours.
Given the lack of time, I simply opted to drop down Pexford Road (which can be seen on the left of the image) and head up the footpath on the other side to the more traditional overlook.
In the foreground is the Rochdale Canal, which has the dubious honour of being the second highest canal in England at exactly 600' (183m) elevation on the stretch between West Summit and Longlees. That section lies a couple of miles behind me where the canal passes over the shoulder of the hill through which the railway burrows via the more well-known (to railfans at least) Summit Tunnel. With around 19 locks between the summit and Todmorden, visible in the distance, anyone navigating this stretch can be sure of a decent workout.
