A Station In The Snow

 

The Autumn weather is getting colder, but not this cold yet.

Just a nice little train station, probably in America, but...y'now... no info on the slide.

However, that doesn't always stop me. I think this is Ridgefield Park station, in New York.

Travel by River Boat

 

There's the usual lack of info on this slide image, but... I'm guessing that this is not the Henley Regatta.

Bonus - Some days are just quiet for real news.

Bank Holiday Fishing Display

 

It's been said before, Americans love fishing, and "Look what I caught" photos.

maybe i could do a whole calendar of such slides. Heck, it could be a ten-year with no repeats calendar !

Bonus - 

Vintage Pick-Up and a....

Gotta admit, that's a nice looking old pick-up. No info, but the number plate suggests that it might be a 1930's model something.

I'm sure a vintage auto enthusiast could well me.

However, beside it is a drooping plank, which I suspect is a Benson B-8 Gyrocopter.  Much more interesting.

Peacock

 

No, I've not been playing with the colour settings of this. I suspect that the unexpected colours are just Transmitted light vs Reflected Light.

Bonus - in 1524, a statue of the Virgin Mary at the Cathedral in Riga, Latvia, was accused of being a witch. They put it on trial by throwing it in the river. Since the wooden statue floated, they declared it guilty and burned it.

Bonus 2 - The League of Gentlemen - Remake???

(Not) From the Scottish Tourist Board.

 

No information on tis slide, but the can of Tartan Special in the driver's footwell makes me think it could be Scotland. And the possible demolition site ahead of the lovely lime green car makes me wonder if this is/was Ravenscraig  Steel Plant.

But ... it could be anywhere.

Bonus - Imigongo. an art form popular in Rwanda traditionally made by women using cow dung

Bonus 2 - Isatai'i    Comanche medicine man Kwihnai Tosabitu (White Eagle), told his warriors that his medicine made them invincible to the white man's bullets. When this medicine failed and they were massacred in the Battle of Adobe Walls in 1874, he was renamed Isatai'i (Coyote Vagina).
