After a lengthy wait the AVR Island Ave. job is heading back east. Seems that the NS C28 local was late delivering their cars. (Imagine that) Pittsburgh, PA
Kurzeme Fortress Museum is a large private collection dedicated to the events of World War II in Kurzeme. The museum is located in the village of Zante, Kandava municipality, which is part of the military history of the Kurzeme Fortress. Exhibit includes items of military history, military machines, restored trenches and bunkers.
The Kurzeme Fortress and Courland Pocket – these are the terms that are most commonly used to describe battles between the German and Red Army in Kurzeme from 1944 to 1945. These engagements or “Grand Battles of Kurzeme” were notable, because the German Army, which was located in a partially isolated territory, managed to withstand multiple large-scale attacks by the Red Army at a time when Berlin had fallen to the Allied Army and Germany had already surrendered. Units of the Latvian Legion were one of the best combat units in Kurzeme. Latvian Legionnaires believed that their fight would help thousands of Latvians to escape the Red Army's crimes against civilians. Even long after the war had ended the land of Kurzeme was riddled with reminders of the battles fought – military cemeteries, destroyed equipment, armaments and trenches.

Happy Truck Thursday!

A troubled mind
Trenches of dirt too deep
With its vines intertwined
It planted the seed
Wailful words it was condemned to believe
Were the catalyst that set it free
A deluded mind speaks the truth in lies
Fabricating your fables with its self deceit
Scrutiny will not bury the seed
Validation from tenacious eyes is not what it seeks
A seed is what it chooses to be
But you, the product of its never ending story
Is this all you amount to be?
A jester within the twisted web you weave
Vengeance lies in what will become obsolete
As the truth is something you will never reach
A seed finds comfort behind the distorted belief
That everything is exactly as it seems
You, the blind pilot behind the windshield of dreams
The key lies in the bullet that remains with me
A troubled mind has learned to breathe
Through false affirmation that you buried it to sea
When signals set your ship to sail
Pray that the person awaiting you is not me
I made a MOC! I love it. Creds to neighborhood bricks for the wall design. Vikrainian soldier in a trench battling against Germainians.

NS 230 rushes into Atlanta, Georgia, via "The Killing Game" Trench with NS AC44C6M 4000 leading on May 17, 2020.
The contractors have been working hard creating long trenches on the beach from Black Rock towards the Pier. I asked one of them what the trenches were and he explained they are part of the improving biodiversity plan (see below) The trenches are like planters which, once finished, will be filled with native plants, flowers and chalk land grasses. The trench area will then be fenced in so the public can look but not touch.
The foliage around the trench in Pittsburgh tends to change significantly later than everything else, usually the peak week for it is the second week of November, so going here on the 2nd is a little early. NS 32A makes its way east for Abrams Yard with the VGN on point.
Today 11 November, Belgium remembers all the people who died in the two World Wars. During World War I, the war was fought from the trenches.
Here, soldiers fought a hard and bloody battle for four long years.
The Trench of Death is a historic site in Diksmuide, Belgium.
It was one of the most dangerous places on the front line during World War I.
Belgian soldiers defended this position for four years under very hard conditions.
Today, the site is a memorial where visitors can learn about the war and remember those who fought and died here.
I slowed the firework explosion part down because it was rather quick and its fun to go frame by frame looking at the different shots
Also threw in some john williams because the war horse soundtrack seemed to fit the theme

Wow, feels so good after getting back on track with Flickr after getting tied up in a chair for a week
Anyways here are some ideas I had for Bane, Joker, and The Riddler with trench coats.
Bane: Around a week ago I came up with a bane with the normal head and torso, but with grey and black dual molded legs. After putting a trench coat on him, I thought he looked pretty badass, so I kept it on him.
Joker: Really simple. 2006 torso, 2012 head, 2014 hat, and trench coat. Mostly inspired off of the Killing Joke Joker
Riddler: This is really the same thing as my own custom one, except the torso and pants have been switched out for black suit. Though it looked nice on him.
The pond with waterlilies at Trench Hill gardens. The view from the bench and the seats in the background is lovely and relaxing.
As promised here's the whole build for my WWI portrait. The twisted chains make great barbed wire! And I really like using the dark tan bushes for explosions! Sadly the picture is crappy.
The trench watch was a type of watch that came into use by the military during World War 1, as pocket watches were not practical in combat. It was a transitional design between pocket watches and wristwatches, incorporating features of both. Up until this time wristwatches were seen as a womans watch.
This example is one of my own dated 1909 and made of sterling silver. It keeps perfect time even after 114 years.
The chap lay down in the photo is my grandfather, Christopher McGuinness, who was killed in action on 15th October 1914. His son, my Dad, was born 19th October 1909 the same year my watch was made.

A hotspot has been identified within a maze of uncharted trenches at the bottom of the ocean. It's up to people so resourceful and bold as Captain Nemo to find this marker and see what is causing it. There is reason to believe he and his volunteers will see things down here that has never been on record, for better and for worse. Several submarines have reported signs of alien life but it has yet to be officially documented. The next submarine will be set to follow the same path through the kraken reef.
I know I say it a lot when talking about Disneysea, but this reminds me of a more pure Disney era. This ride, 20,000 leagues is not a liftoff from another park, it's not based on a movie, it's all practical sets, and it has it's own story. This is what a good ride needs to be like. Almost as good as Center Of The Earth nextdoor. Too bad Disney can't do ANYTHING original for their parks anymore. Now there were several points on the ride itself where it was too dark to get a good shot (but trust me when I say it's beautiful), so the only shots I got were in the queue, which in time became equally as dark but I had quite a few subjects to work with. They went with the dirty workshop look.
I kept the shadows up in editing and no ambient lighting from the outside. I gave more light to the props I wanted people to see in post. (Even though it wasn't of major importance I recolored some of the spotlights in the back). Tried to make the shot have a more mysterious look as if the future of this mission is uncertain (and spoiler, it kinda is). The suits in particular are some of my favorite subjects I've worked with in my Disneysea shots so far and I wonder if I can top it in September. And even if I talk highly of this particular experience I still vehemently stand by age-old closing tag for these shots.
I hate Disney.
Johnny's in the basement, mixin' up the medicine
I'm on the pavement, thinkin' about the government
The man in a trench coat, badge out, laid off
Says he's got a bad cough, wants to get it paid off
Look out, kid, it's somethin' you did
God knows when, but you're doin' it again

from a couple of months ago
I would like to sleep for about a week.
As Imperial walkers approach Echo Base, the rebels scurry to their trenches, preparing themselves for the battle to come.
I've been seeing a lot of Hoth builds lately, and have wanted to try to make one myself. I got some new hoth guys recently, and wanted to use them for something.
I tagged those who inspired me to make this build. Thanks guys! god bless!
