I'm slowly making a comeback to Flickr. It has been a mighty year since being active on here by posting photos and lurking around my feeds of streams.
While I have been off from Flickr, I have matured (well getting there); I have had two exhibitions, sold work, travelled the world (mainly Europe - Italy, Spain, Switzerland, France and Gibraltar), focused on my creative direction which includes my new love for film photography and using the darkroom.
I'm proud to say that I'm a member of Photofusion, which is the darkroom I have been going to since September 2015 where I have producing photographic prints like this one I have uploaded.
I took this photograph in Zurich back in May. The weather was horrible in Switzerland throughout the week and the day I was leaving I went around for a peaceful serene walk near Lake Zurich and snapped this beauty. It even exhibited at Salon 16 at Photofusion recently.
I can't wait until I go back on Flickr and get back to the jist of things like I once did many years ago...

Towards the end of 2019 Transdev Blazefield acquired six Alexander Dennis Enviro 200s from Ensignbus for Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM) supported bus services in Rochdale and Bury operated under the Burnley and Pendle Travel Operators Licence. These were branded as Rosso services on the company website and the Enviro 200s were painted in Rosso’s generic two-tone yellow livery although they carried Burnley and Pendle Travel legal lettering.
The first Enviro 200 to enter service from Rochdale depot, at the beginning of November 2019, was 731 (MX59AVB), a 29-seater that was new in October 2009 to Eazibus, Bromborough. It was photographed at Bury Interchange on 5 February 2020.

Good morning everyone!
Please View Large On Black
I took the day off work this Tuesday and went out to take some pictures with a friend of mine, Torgeir Sørensen www.ts-foto.no. We had an absolutely wonderful day!
We've had a period with quite heavy snowfall, and then we had a couple of days with really cold weather. So, first the trees got laden with snow and then the snow froze an made a kind of fur made of ice crystals. Just to make things even better, we only have abt 6 hours of sunlight nowadays. And since it is only up for this amount of time, it is very low in the sky all day. Basically making the 6 hours of sunlight a 6 hours sunrise/sunset. :-) This was one of my greatest photo trips ever.
This is taken from a small pier. I saw those little footsteps and just had to try to get them. I loved the way they "walked" into the sun. I am very happy with how little flare I got. I have used both a Lee 0.9 soft ND Grad and the Heliopan 105mm Polarizer, and no big issues with flare! Fantastic. :-)

What had ignited last evening's odyssey was a brilliant, late-afternoon stroll through the 3 pagodas (sic) park. It would either make or break my trip, a previous traveler had warned, and I accepted the challenge for the former to result.
The three pagodas after which the park is named are only a trifle of an attraction within a huge, meticulously cultivated compound. It is the quintessential Chinese cultural amusement, combining one part real antiquity with three parts contrived historical authenticity. Much to my chagrin, man of the religious edifices on which the park's current crop of structures are modeled were either destroyed by natural disasters or ruined by "historical wars", namely the Cultural Revolution. Regardless, the refurbished pagodas and their entourage of reconstructed temples hold their own in vying for tourist dollars in Dali's ferociously competitive market.
I spent a bank-breaking $121RMB - the cost of a one way bus fare between Kunming and Dali - to enter the attraction and the money was well spent. Not only are there acres and acres of picturesque gardens and prodigious temples which provided plenty of opportunities for me to practice my photography, but the park also has what I consider to be the most immaculate toilets in China (as well it should since the high entrance fee guarantees gleaming facilities, as well as a scant number of visitors who can afford to pay the price to use those sparkling restrooms). Dirty China, this is not! To boot, all of the facilities and attractions are spaced out on the park's massive grid. I had an outstanding workout walking the mile or so from the park's entrance to its rear where the tower overlooking Erhai lake and the mountain is situated...
