This make me happy, and didn't feel it in me to shoot much today.
Before this became a tablecloth it was a wallhanging. So glad the colors go with new pad.
Bought a new phone with a bunch of chargers but I can't figure out this new VOIP..so, the one in the kitchen that I set up does not appear to be working.
Still not sure where the heck the voicemail is.. Do i use the machine? or the web?..
Also, can't figure out why i can't send email from my emac that is connected via ethernet. Spent time trying to send something, only to spend more time opening up a web-based email account just so I can send email.
Well...now that Ive whined enought. Have a nice nite!
sorry for the lack of updates and new postings on flickR .. with all the social media sites these days ie 500px g+ FB etc etc it is easy for one to loose track of what is where ... but i think I will spend a little more time on my flickR page as well as my facebook page over at Facebook Page as these 2 social media sites I find most comfortable with ... G+ I can not see a point of really when in reality it is the same as a facebook page with a more people on facebook 750 million i hear ... 500px well the layout is nice but really its the same as flickR, do I need a second one ... as I do a little online marketing I find that the more offline marketing I do the better my outcome ...
So I think I'll stick with just Facebook and FlickR right now ... confused ? ... that makes 2 of us ...
So here is a fairly new image taken on the east coast of australia ... something I have been wanting to photograph for a long time now ... More to come over the next week from my trip to the east coast of australia ... Remember to press L on your keyboard to view the large file sample on Black ...

"That's only among friends."
"I don't call myself Spider Peter!"

This is bogus!!
Now I've got sticky webs all over me!

Last summer while camping in the boranup forest I took these 3 images as blend for camera motion and sharpness ... I was attempting to produce as much depth as I could while keeping as much camera motion as possible. I took 1 image as sharp as I could and 2 images with different amounts of camera motion and then blended the 3 images at different opacity levels to achieved the desired end result.
Keep an eye out for 1 and 2 day workshops in Western Australia where you will be guide to sort amazing locations, be shown how I take my images and the post production techniques I use to achieve the results I do.

This musical phenomenon comes to Theatr Clwyd for the first time thanks to Tip Top Productions.
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.
The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.
Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years

A friend running a web based flashlight and LED-/HID - headlight shop asked me to shoot his project.
Putting 11 IPF 930 with a total of 1100 Watts of HID conversion kits on a Nissan Navara Doublecab.
I can tell you that the actual lamps doesn't cost a fraction of the total amount. We're talking a 40A relay to each single light, including a spare to each section of lights. (4 on the roof, 3 in the upper bar of the bullbar and another 4 in the lower bar of the bullbar)
The cable list as follows
12 meters of 50mm2
6 meters of 35mm2
10 meters of 4mm2
25 meters of 2*2,5mm2
3 Optima Yellowtop batteries and it just goes on and on.
Here's some pictures of the 7 SPOTS in the bullbar.
The photos are taken att a landing field at Backamo Flygfält, south of Ljungskile, Sweden. The lenght of the visible light here is aproximately 800 meters, but because of the snowfall and all the moist in the air I would say that the trees, probably 1500 meters away would be well lit up if the conditions were better.
INSANE!!

About this photo:
Taken in the Strasburg Rail Road outdoor exhibit during a bitter-cold February day in Lancaster county, Pennsylvania.
About the process:
First, I desaturated the photo by 50% and increased the contrast. Then I applied a cross-process filter using the Picnik web-based, photo-editing program. Picnik has a great variety of easy-to-use filters and effects.
Finally, I rotated the photo and added a slight vignette.

Fuji GW690ii.
I'd mulled over getting a medium format rangefinder for a while, with my sights originally set on a Mamiya 7. However, they're now way too expensive for me. Some research and subsequent visits to a popular web-based auction site thus landed me this example of Fuji's '80's - 90's offering. AKA the Texas Leica.
thought i would celebrate my first anniversary with something quintessentially flickr.
as for my first year on flickr,, i've had an incredible time, mostly from coming across an amazing range of pics and meeting really nice people (eventhough i'm too shy to ever meet them in person). my faves are the ones where it's what people notice on the way to work/school, wandering around their cities/neighbourhoods etc.
am not sure why it took me so long to join up. i made an account 2 years ago but never got around to uploading, perhaps i hadn't come across the (joy of the) Uploadr yet. am pretty much hooked, UI is pretty much spot on for the casual user like me, so how can i resist? lucky i don't know how to work my Color Mail option on my moby, cos i would be really in trouble.
one of the highlights has def been the relationships with contacts, often feeling like i live in the same city as them. am not much a blogger/reader so flickr is perfect for me.
this has also been my first attempt on anything vaguely online, and it's good to know all the nice things that's been written about web based communities seems pretty true here. oh, dear, must stop now before am too gushy. thanks for dropping by!
am a big fan of colour but i just happen to have loads of dark bags, pouches etc. and so many of my things are black already, hence...
Between winters storms on the great southern coastline of Western Australia in 2010 ....

Water color was amazing, reminded me of those iceberg and glacier colors you sometimes see … With not much time to prepare as I only just landed and checked into the hotel before heading up the coast taking in the breath taking scenery and colors … We quickly stopped by the side of the road when I made my way over the edge down to some old lava rock and took a few series of images as the light was peaking.

This image was captured from the summit of Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park, Maine. It is a "study" of the subtle colors that can be seen during the twilight period when the sun is below the horizon. This is a compressed sRGB file, the standard used for web based things. It was processed initially in Adobe RGB which has a larger or wider "gamut" of colors that is usually used/preferred for print media. Some subtle colors are decreased or lost when converting from Adobe RGB to sRGB such as part of cyan. (image m1a5255) Please also visit: acadiamagic.com.

I had real difficulty with this one as I spent hours on Photoshop and did not like the effects. I used a web based filter called LunaPic. This picture of the car comes from CarFest in Coventry city centre. I survive for another week.

Well some may say so.......
When I started this project I had no personal photos from my 1960's visits so I could only research it as best I could from publications I'd acquired along with a plethora of web-based photos
Amongst that material I also had a few layout plans of the site from different eras and sources - some better than others
Whilst it's the early diesel aspect there that I recall most, Steam traction was still in evidence - just!
However, along with the still standing Roundhouses we'd ferret around in, it's the 'Coaling Stage' (out of our limit of exploration and I suspect was either gone or being demolished at the time) that I find to be a fascinating construction
Unfortunately, in all my research, there's only a few views of the one there which are very informative but various crucial features were not visible
Thankfully a new publication came out a couple of months ago and reveals some of those omissions, namely the transfer of coal to the waiting locos
The inset shows the reference photo with the trolley loaded with coal being emptied into the waiting loco. Assuming these were hand loaded by shovel, then pushed and tipped with their wheels held by those curved 'stoppers' on each of the platforms
On it I've placed the unpainted trolley I made from sheet plasticard with wheels made from slices of plastic tube glued onto made up axles. The handle is 'presumed' and made of brass rod
In the main photo it's been painted and filled with real (crushed) coal
I still don't know whether once inside the stage if the trucks were tipped sideways using hydraulics to spill their loads before the crews got to work with shovels OR it was ALL done by hand??
I've also been 'superdetailing' the main structure with (representative) tubing for external lights along with downpipes which serve some sort of piping from each of the coaling platform rooves - maybe a wash hose to clear coal dust as I cannot see any guttering on them
I've also raised the whole building about 5mm along with the entry rails on the gradient plus the raised arched truck structure as I wasn't happy with the height including opening up the arches under the latter as one photo revealed that they were open!
Added too were the Water Tank access ladder and cladded water pipe feed (top left)
I've still to scratch-build three more of those access staircases :(

Yesterday i did a little shot with nicky. We shot another little movie, which i'm in the process of finishing. :-) But after finshing the animation film we got me strobe kit and had a play. I wanted some very simple but power images from the use f the strobes. She look very at ease with nature in this. This is my fav strobe shot from yesterday. I did get some kick ass ambient light images aslo, but i'll get to them over the next few days.
It is a good week for me for photography publishing. I did a wedding in april and it has been featured in a mag called Etc mag. I just got my copy in the post and it looks bloddy amazing. i don't get to see much of my work in print as most of it is web based. But damn it looks fine. I am a happy bunny again :-)
Stobist info: a Bowens GM 400 was used camera left @ 1/1 power through a white brolly.
Arriving well before dawn I spent the day hiking in and around the Marin County hills leaving after sunset. Only came across one Coyote the during the day. Watching the fog roll in over the Pacific Ocean most of the day was amazing.

For years, I really thought this was photoshopped. Whenever I saw it, it was mostly at ‘unofficial’ sites/posts, forums, blogs, etc., so I never bothered researching it. I’ll be damned, it’s real! Furthermore, it’s at the VERY LAST place I expected to find it, along with the following excellent description! Despite it being ignorantly oriented - either for the benefit of the unknowing and/or 'aesthetics' - a Christmas miracle nonetheless:
“This view of shock-wave condensation collars backlit by the Sun occurred during the launch of the Space Shuttle Atlantis on September 8, 2000. The scene was captured on 35mm motion picture film. One frame was digitized to make this still image. Although the primary effect is created by the forward fuselage of the Atlantis, secondary effects can be seen on the solid rocket booster (SRB) forward skirt, shuttle vertical stabilizer and wing trailing edge, behind the Space Shuttle Main Engines (SSME). The perfect on-time launch took place at 8:45:47 a.m. (EDT), September 8, 2000. Onboard the shuttle were astronauts Terrence W. Wilcutt, Scott D. Altman, Edward T. Lu, Richard A. Mastracchio and Daniel C. Burbank, along with cosmonauts Yuri I. Malenchenko and Boris V. Morukov who represent the Russian Aviation and Space Agency.”

PHOTOBITION, also from September 2000. Not surprisingly, the site/service, company? no longer exists:

As of late last week, I became a new iPhone user. I wrestled with the idea of joining the league of iPhone users a while back, and decided against it. I opted to save my pennies and get a cheaper [to operate] phone.
My journey was quite frustrating.
This past February I renewed my AT&T contract -another two years. I ended up getting a Samsung Impression over the iPhone for the reason stated above, as it was a compromise I knew I could make do with.
Looking back at this decision, I regret my choice.
About four months following my initial ownership of the Samsung Impression, the screen failed for no reason (I take good care of all of my tech). It lost response to my touch. This would not have been a big issue, if the phone were not a touch phone.
I went to AT&T warranty in Colma, and they took care of me very nicely -they gave me a replacement phone no questions asked. I counted the trouble as a mere inconvenience.
A little over one week ago the screen on my second phone fell ill to the same malfunction as my first phone. This second defunct phone was more than an inconvenience -I was pretty annoyed.
I went to warranty and received my third phone. I did not want to use it. Coincidently, my friend Susan was selling her four month old iPhone. Without hesitation, I bought it off of her.
I've been uber thrilled since the phone has been in my ownership. I've quickly grown to understand first hand how users say they cannot live without this phone. The internet at your fingertips, and all of the wondrous, easy-to-use, and entertaining apps!
Plus. Now I'm cool. And hip. Right?
Oh, web based sarcasm, you slay me, you slay me. :)

This musical phenomenon comes to Theatr Clwyd for the first time thanks to Tip Top Productions.
Music by Andrew Lloyd Webber based on Old Possum’s Book Of Practical Cats by T.S. Eliot. “Prologue – Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats” additional material written by Trevor Nunn and Richard Stilgoe; ”Memory” additional material written by Trevor Nunn.
The Jellicle Cats come out to play on one special night of the year—the night of the Jellicle Ball. One by one they tell their stories to Old Deuteronomy, their wise and benevolent leader, who must choose one of the Cats to ascend to The Heaviside Layer and be reborn into a whole new Jellicle life. Among the candidates are the aging theatre cat, Gus; the rocker, Rum Tum Tugger; and the once-glamorous Grizabella, now but a faded memory of her former self.
Boasting a score that includes Jellicle Songs for Jellicle Cats, Mr. Mistoffelees and Memory, this compelling fable takes audiences to a fantastical world that can only exist in the theatre. Cats has been performed worldwide and translated into over 20 languages. The original West End production ran for 21 years and the original Broadway production ran for 18 years

What do I mean? What's so sad about this?
Nothing is sad about this image itself as Conway Scenic's ex Maine Central GP38 252 sits coupled back to back with Boston and Maine F7 4266 on the siding in front of the splendid 1874 depot with the classic ball signal preserved from Waumbek Junction, NH at left.
This was always my happy place to just 'be present' even if nothing was moving as it was arguable one of the most authentic and intact tourist railroads in the country situated in truly beautiful country. I have memories going back to childhood here as do countless railfans and have made some great friends in this very place. I was introduced to the business of railroading here at a young age and a quarter century later I have two decades in the industry behind me. So this place is important to me...it is special in a way few other places are.
But I was just up there last weekend to spend a night with family and while the White Mountains are as majestic as ever and the Saco still runs cold and clear the Conway Scenic is nothing like it was....to put it plainly it made my heart heavy.
How so? Well let me list a few ways.
Glaringly of course is the fact that 252 has failed catastrophically with no plan in the near term to repair her and she is parked forlornly out behind the roundhouse.
After four and a half decades of visitors feeling welcome to walk around the yard that is no longer permitted and one can't walk through and linger by the roundhouse or look at the assorted equipment except from afar. I have no idea why but the place is now littered with ugly repair stakes and blue rope string barriers everywhere like some sort of perverse contorted maze with plenty of simple printed keep out signs.
Oh, and that unwelcome feeling extends even to the platform. No more sitting on the bench by the bay window enjoying the sight and sound up close. Nope, only ticketed passengers are allowed with plenty more signs and ropes everywhere. Maybe this is some covid requirement, I don't know but it is awful. And it's not even done tastefully with more ropes everywhere as an entanglement hazard and and poorly hand written signs in faded black sharpie stuffed in sheep office depot plastic sleeves thumbtacked sloppily to the depot....and who the f--- willingly and needlessly puts tacks in the depot anyway?!
Shall I go on?
The ticket window is now out front and sure I get that cause of covid and social distancing but man is it ugly. Poorly constructed of plywood and only partially painted and wrapped with plexiglass I've seen better looking dunking booths at the fair. To put it simply it just looked cheap and trashy.
And shall we talk about the train?
I only photographed the Valley Train but man it didn't look good.
For one it was running 15 to 20 min late consistently, something unheard of for decades.
Secondly 1751 pulling the train is really shabby looking still wearing its faded and streaked lighting stripe paint a decade after it arrived from the Finger Lakes Railroad.
Third, with a 'Notch Train' car mixed in the Valley consist it lost it's uniform color look.
Oh, and as far as I can tell despite hauling around the diner you can't have lunch on the train and there is no dinner train this year. Why? Who knows. Maybe they will blame covid but the Cafe Lafayette is running down in Lincoln so it can be done.
And in what I consider the most egregious failure especially in these times is the lack of an open car. Why? I don't know. But both trains had one forever and there was no better way to soak up the sights and sounds of the north country while enjoying the fresh mountain air tinged with that magical scent of fir. But now, in an era where fresh air is healthier and safer than ever there is no open car option that I can see. Maybe they have one on the 'Mountaineer' I don't know.
Then let's add that the rack cards (or brochures) found in all the normal tourist spots and restaurant entrances are much less appealing being only a simple cardboard front and back. The trifold is gone, the couple photos are terrible and unappealing and there is no schedule listed instead directing you to the web site. In this location that still features an older demographic making everything web based seems foolish and then the lack of a schedule even on the web site is ridiculous. It's as bad as restaurants that won't give you a printed menu anymore instead having to click through dozens of descriptions to find what your options are. That's what they've done. There is no one page listing the schedule. You have to pretend like you're booking and drill into each day to see what is or isn't running. User friendly and inviting it is not.
Am I done, no...the truly saddest of all was seeing the ball signal laying on its side. Was it taken down on purpose or was it knocked down? I don't know. But it is a sacred and important part railroad history once located in a truly scenic off the beaten path location you can still visit today if you like a good walk or take your bike. I hope it is down for a reason and is going back up but I don't know....and it really shocked me to see it laying like so much scrap wood on the ground.
What has happened to this place?! It truly makes me sad like seeing an old friend get sick as they slowly slip away. You want to remember them how they were...and I want to remember you how you were Conway Scenic.
Oh Gary and Dwight...come back please...
But on the bright sight...there is an ugly old antique school bus parked in the yard now if the north country junk yard aesthetic is your thing!
So enjoy this simple look back before the fall.
