Jools left for work, and I had some toast and another coffee, then got ready for work.
Work was the same, a two hour department meeting in which we discuss progress, and there was actual progress.
Which is nice.
I had two hours before my afternoon of more meetings, so wth a migraine building, I went for a walk.
I was intending to mainly look for wild flowers, but the walk would certainly do me good. I felt boots were no longer needed as the ground was getting firmer every day, grabbed a camera or two and walked out of the door.
I walked in shadow along our street and the track at the end of it, but into sunshine as I turned up to Collingwood before turning down the small dip towards Windy Ridge, then taking the first long track on the right, which would lead me level with the track the other side of the wood on Windy Ridge.
Plenty of flowers to be enjoyed: some nice double snowdrops, Common Field-speedwells and lots of Annual Mercury. As well as daisies, dandelions and the usual early spring suspects. The Winter heliotropes are now nearing their end, with petal edges turning brown as the warmth takes its toll.
The tracks were muddy in places, but I was able to get by, horses looked at me passing, mournfully hoping I would have a sugarlump or some other treat.
The climb past the farm made my back complain some, but we can't give into it, can we? Or we'd end up just like my Mother.
Precious.
Caroline Amos retraces the colonial Tasmanian journeys of Jorgen Jorgenson through a series of visual narratives. She scoured historic townships and cemeteries throughout the state to obtain graphite rubbings from headstones of people connected to Jorgensen.
Jorgensen left no physical footprint other than the written word. Through a series of visual 'relics' the artist aims to illustrate the stories of those connections.

Construction worker: "Damnit, when the hell is this train gonna get here! Wait, I think I can hear it...."
" 'Cuse Me! Coming through!"
"Holy.....what the hell? THE Iron Man, in a subway tunnel!?"
"Jarvis! How far until we track down the quinjet!?"
" Continue along the subway tunnel sir, take a right at the next junction, then follow that track until you reach a subway stop, the thief is there."
"Got it, time to catch this bitch!"

When trains are delayed it is always interesting to see how people manage to cope with the delay and what they do while waiting for period far longer than they had expected. This is just one great example of someone trying to remain productive whilst they wait.
This was one of my favourite photos taken from my first ever street photograph shoot back in 2018. I had actually gone up to Exeter to work in the City Centre but had failed to build up the courage to photograph people on this project however these delayed services provided me with a great second chance and I absolutely loved it once I got into it!
Downtown Brooklyn at Cadmen Plaza after the first real snow we had last weekend....
I love how fresh snow looks, it was freezing out so I wasn't able to stay and shoot all that I wanted! Of course, there was no one in the park but me! lol...
Be well and and enjoy the holidays!

QR 2391/2390 pass through the typical Queensland Station of Murarrie on the Cleveland Line with 700 Series EMU 701 on transfer to the Wulkuraka Maintenance Centre. This Unit was unloaded from Matsumae Vessel at the Port of Brisbane on Monday, February 15, 2016, and was constructed by Bombardier in Savli, India.
Victoria Line's Northumberland Depot as seen through the window of car 3133. Our railtour train had just been through the wash - hence the drips on the window.
The depot's then pilot 67ts unit can be seen through the No Smoking roundall, albeit out of focus.
With the Terminal crew still on board Terminal 101 with the Norfolk and Western Y6a number 2156 in tow rolls through WR tower in Granite City IL. The train would stop shortly after this was shot so an NS crew and a barring issue could be resolved. They train would take about three or so hours to do this before continuing on its journey toward Roanoke VA for a cosmetic restoration and a display at the Roanoke Railroad Museum.

Walk with Sylv after lunch and spotted this flower poking through a fence all by itself. Very courageous I thought.

This is kodak 2238. Wayne gave me a mile of this a couple of years back. I just shot this roll quickly at a disused MOD facility not far from where I live to see what i thought of it. Developed in D96 @ 12iso I think it came out rather well, practically grainless but still with a bit of film character.
The only thing is that the ultra slow speed doesnt really suit my needs. I remember last year Mike seeing how far he could push this stuff so I'm going to carry on where he left off and see if I can get a usable negative for the darkroom at a heady 100iso! The aim is to try to introduce a bit of grain and more character by underexposure but not at the expense of total loss of shadow detail. Update to follow soon...
