A line up of Atkinsons including the 8 wheeler that I owned at the time at a Banbury Steam Fair many years ago.
These were taken on Easter Sunday on a day trip to Aber falls and Snowdonia. We walked up to the fall at Aber where we tucked into our Easter eggs, i can think of worse places to enjoy them! The backdrop was beatuiful, i just hope some of these shots have done it justice.
Managed to stop off at Llyn Ogwen on the way home for a couple more shots, the snow was knee deep there which is pretty good considering i am 6ft4!
Again, I hope these shots do the locations justice, It was great to be back in the saddle and shooting some proper landscapes again, it's been a while!

Grey Green CLK 474B summed up everything that was right about the Harrington coach body. Classy but also workmanlike. Note the low height seatbacks fitted to this Grenadier bodied Leyland Leopard L2T.

Inspired by the lyrics from the album Voyage 34 by Porcupine Tree.
The particular line was:
"But on Voyage 34, he finally met himself coming down an up-staircase, and the encounter was crushing."

Photo shot by my Dad, Jay Thomson, at Omaha, NE in June 1984
On June 14, 1984 we were aboard the California Zephyr, eastbound for Chicago when Dad shot Union Pacific GP9 231 shunting flatcars in the Omaha, NE yard.
A pair of SD60Ms (UP 2374 and UP 2361) have the point of a mixed freight (possibly the hauler from Roseville to Benicia) as it stops in Davis, California, to set out cars for the California Northern interchange.
Built in January of 1971, the last operable EMD DDA40X, part of Union Pacific's heritage fleet. DDA40X's are essentially a pair of GP40's in one body, though the DD40 uses a pair of 3,300 HP 645 engines (vs 3,000 for a GP40). Seen here in Greeley, CO on the Denver Post train, behind UP 4-8-4 #844.
Taken at the Mill of Kintail near Almonte. This is the way up from the parlor to the loft where various sculptures of Dr Tait McKenzie are displayed. In addition to his sculpting, Dr McKenzie "gained world acclaim for his pioneering work in preventive and rehabilitative medicine. Many of the exercises massage and hydrotherapy treatments he developed are still in use by physiotherapists today."
You may wish to go large (full-screen recommended) to view properly as this photo is both low-key and vertical. Click Mill of Kintail in the tag section to see more of this conservation area if you are interested.
An HDR from three handheld exposures.
Coach Harper walks up the steps that lead from Reynolds' basement, where the locker rooms are located, to the court for her first exhibition at NC State. This one is the photographer's favorite shot. "You can read the wording on the stairs," he says. "There is symbolism of her moving up; going to a new challenge."
The steps say: "Wolfpack women steps to success: enthusiasm . . .intensity . . . confidence . . . loyalty . . . poise . . . skills. (We'll get the rest soon.)
I got to do a big project on a CP Lishe ^^
It's actually a project that I did before. Maybe you remember this girl with her facial leopard tattoo.
But the face-up got damaged a little while ago, and my friend asked if I could do it again, plus some extras.
I redid the leopard print on the face and even made it smaller and more detailed. And the print now also goes from her neck to her lower back.
I also did a tattoo on her arm. It was so tiny!!
It's actually an illustration I made of another doll's character.
The character is called Neobe, and is a doll of another friend.
The doll in the photos (Mylo), and Neobe are lovers, so Mylo really needed a tattoo of her sweetheart on her arm haha ;)
My character for the LCC (Lands of Classic Castle).
Bio: Hawk grew up an orphan on the streets of Loreos. From the age of six until sixteen, he wandered from city to city, pickpocketing coin and stealing bread to stay alive. However, on one faithful day he was thrown out of a settlement after being caught stealing an apple. He wandered for several days, lost in the desert without food or water. Fortunately for him, he was found by a group of highwaymen looking for their next victim. Their leader listened to Hawks story, and decided to take him under his wing.
For the next five years, he would become a prominent member of the highwaymen, eventually becoming the right-hand-man to their leader, Fawkes. However, Fawkes was killed not two months later. The group of bandits became more sloppy in their attacks, and eventually where caught off-guard by a group of Loreesi soldiers. After killing off the rest of the bandits in the group, the less-than-legitimate noble leading the company noticed a remarkable thing about Hawk; when his hair was combed, and his face cleaned, he bared a striking resemblance to one of the most well-known figures in Loreos politics; Mark Of Falworth.
The noble decided that Hawk was his ticket to scaling the political latter. For the next two years, he hired several trainers to make Hawk the perfect Mark of Falworth impersonator. He was trained in the art of swordsmanship, the ways of the court, how to read and write, and even how to play several instruments. What the noble did not expect was for Hawk to grow very fond of Loreos and its people during his training. When the time came for Hawk to impersonate Mark of Falworth, he couldn't bring himself to betray Loreos in such a way, and instead ratted out the noble to the kings men.
With his past behind him, he decided to travel, playing the lute in the street and in taverns in order to make legitimate money. However, with war looming on the horizon, and his unique set of acquired skills, he figured he could make more cash while helping the people by starting his own mercenary company with his friend Magnus. The desert hand is the name of their company. Unlike some mercenary groups, the hand is less focused on the acquisition of gold, and more on helping the people of Loreos. They gathered so much attention to themselves, that they where eventually recognized by the Prince himself, and have worked closely with the crown on jobs that a regular army could not achieve.
UPY 898 and 899 were on display with steam engine UP 844 at Roseville, California. They are built by Railpower and designated RP20SD by Union Pacific. They were built on SD40-2 frames--they look familiar from the walkways down.
The Stick Up Kids really define the kind of art Creative Tempest grew up on, murals with tags where the names are almost unreadable, which exist just as an excuse to paint bold lines, shapes and colors in places where everyone would see, where you weren’t allowed. It is immediately clear in these paintings that these artists are not simply after name recognition, but rebellion against a society that would build a blank canvas and demand it never be painted. These artists bring color and with it life into places desperate for revitalization. They inspired us, and so we will let them inspire you. Find out more at www.creativetempest.com
