Rajshahi railway station
Rajshahi Railway Station is a railway station located in Rajshahi, Bangladesh. The station is located opposite the Shiroil bus terminal in Rajshahi divisional city. This railway station is the main station of the city, and is connected to Dhaka by the Ishwardi-Sirajganj line. The station is one of the most modern, largest and most important stations of Bangladesh Railway after Dhaka and Chittagong railway stations. The western headquarters of Bangladesh Railway is located within the station complex.
In 18, the Siliguri railway from Calcutta was divided into two parts. The first part was a 175 km journey from Calcutta station (now Sealdah) on the East Bengal Railway to Damukdia Ghat on the south bank of the Padma River, then across the river by ferry. The 338 km meter gauge line of the North Bengal Railway connected Saraghat on the north bank of the Padma with Siliguri. [1]
Rajshahi railway station in the 1930s
The main Kolkata-Siliguri line was gradually converted to broad gauge. The Hardinge Bridge was opened in 1915, while the Sara-Sirajganj line was built by the Sara-Sirajganj Railway Company between 1915-18. Then in 1930, the Abdulpur-Amanura broad gauge line was opened as a branch of the Sara-Sirajganj line. At that time Rajshahi railway station was introduced as the station of Abdulpur-Amanura branch line. [2] [3] In 2003, the station's terminal building, platform, and yard were renovated and rebuilt.
The Rajshahi railway station is like a bird from the front. In front of the main entrance of the station there is a large parking lot for cars and other vehicles. There are restrooms and ticket counters on the right side of the main platform. On the left is another lounge for male passengers, a railway inquiry, a food hotel, a bookstore and two fast food outlets. What makes the platform different is its specialized roof. Instead of the traditional concrete roof, the roof is made with a few different types of plastic with a few triangular shaped parts.

Brand Honda
Honda Motor Company, Ltd. (Japanese: 本田技研工業株式会社, Hepburn: Honda Giken Kōgyō KK, IPA: [honda] (About this soundlisten); /ˈhɒndə/) is a Japanese public multinational conglomerate corporation primarily known as a manufacturer of automobiles, motorcycles, and power equipment.
Honda has been the world's largest motorcycle manufacturer since 1959, [2][3] reaching a production of 400 million by the end of 2019,[4] as well as the world's largest manufacturer of internal combustion engines measured by volume, producing more than 14 million internal combustion engines each year.[5] Honda became the second-largest Japanese automobile manufacturer in 2001.[6][7] Honda was the eighth largest automobile manufacturer in the world in 2015.[8]
Honda was the first Japanese automobile manufacturer to release a dedicated luxury brand, Acura, in 1986. Aside from their core automobile and motorcycle businesses, Honda also manufactures garden equipment, marine engines, personal watercraft and power generators, and other products. Since 1986, Honda has been involved with artificial intelligence/robotics research and released their ASIMO robot in 2000. They have also ventured into aerospace with the establishment of GE Honda Aero Engines in 2004 and the Honda HA-420 HondaJet, which began production in 2012. Honda has three joint-ventures in China: Honda China, Dongfeng Honda, and Guangqi Honda.
History
Throughout his life, Honda's founder, Soichiro Honda, had an interest in automobiles. He worked as a mechanic at the Art Shokai garage, where he tuned cars and entered them in races. In 1937, with financing from his acquaintance Kato Shichirō, Honda founded Tōkai Seiki (Eastern Sea Precision Machine Company) to make piston rings working out of the Art Shokai garage.[11] After initial failures, Tōkai Seiki won a contract to supply piston rings to Toyota, but lost the contract due to the poor quality of their products.[11] After attending engineering school without graduating, and visiting factories around Japan to better understand Toyota's quality control processes, by 1941 Honda was able to mass-produce piston rings acceptable to Toyota, using an automated process that could employ even unskilled wartime laborers.[11][12]:16–19
Tōkai Seiki was placed under the control of the Ministry of Commerce and Industry (called the Ministry of Munitions after 1943) at the start of World War II, and Soichiro Honda was demoted from president to senior managing director after Toyota took a 40% stake in the company.[11] Honda also aided the war effort by assisting other companies in automating the production of military aircraft propellers.[11] The relationships Honda cultivated with personnel at Toyota, Nakajima Aircraft Company and the Imperial Japanese Navy would be instrumental in the postwar period.[11] A US B-29 bomber attack destroyed Tōkai Seiki's Yamashita plant in 1944, and the Itawa plant collapsed on 13 January 1945 Mikawa earthquake. Soichiro Honda sold the salvageable remains of the company to Toyota after the war for ¥450,000 and used the proceeds to found the Honda Technical Research Institute in October 1946.[11][13]
With a staff of 12 men working in a 16 m2 (170 sq ft) shack, they built and sold improvised motorized bicycles, using a supply of 500 two-stroke 50 cc Tohatsu war surplus radio generator engines.[11][12]:19[14] When the engines ran out, Honda began building their own copy of the Tohatsu engine, and supplying these to customers to attach to their bicycles.[11][14] This was the Honda A-Type, nicknamed the Bata Bata for the sound the engine made.[11] In 1949, the Honda Technical Research Institute was liquidated for ¥1,000,000, or about US$5,000 today; these funds were used to incorporate Honda Motor Co., Ltd.[12]:21 At about the same time Honda hired engineer Kihachiro Kawashima, and Takeo Fujisawa who provided indispensable business and marketing expertise to complement Soichiro Honda's technical bent.[12]:21 The close partnership between Soichiro Honda and Fujisawa lasted until they stepped down together in October 1973.[12]:21
The first complete motorcycle, with both the frame and engine made by Honda, was the 1949 D-Type, the first Honda to go by the name Dream.[13][15] In 1961, Honda achieved its first Grand Prix victories and World Championships in 125cc and 250cc.[16] Honda Motor Company grew in a short time to become the world's largest manufacturer of motorcycles by 1964.[citation needed]
The first production automobile from Honda was the T360 mini pick-up truck, which went on sale in August 1963.[17] Powered by a small 356-cc straight-4 gasoline engine, it was classified under the cheaper Kei car tax bracket.[18] The first production car from Honda was the S500 sports car, which followed the T360 into production in October 1963. Its chain-driven rear wheels pointed to Honda's motorcycle origins.[19]
Over the next few decades, Honda worked to expand its product line and expanded operations and exports to numerous countries around the world. In 1986, Honda introduced the successful Acura brand to the American market in an attempt to gain ground in the luxury vehicle market. The year 1991 saw the introduction of the Honda NSX supercar, the first all-aluminum monocoque vehicle that incorporated a mid-engine V6 with variable-valve timing.[20]
CEO Tadashi Kume was succeeded by Nobuhiko Kawamoto in 1990. Kawamoto was selected over Shoichiro Irimajiri, who oversaw the successful establishment of Honda of America Manufacturing, Inc. in Marysville, Ohio. Irimajiri and Kawamoto shared a friendly rivalry within Honda; owing to health issues, Irimajiri would resign in 1992.
Following the death of Soichiro Honda and the departure of Irimajiri, Honda found itself quickly being outpaced in product development by other Japanese automakers and was caught off-guard by the truck and sport utility vehicle boom of the 1990s, all which took a toll on the profitability of the company. Japanese media reported in 1992 and 1993 that Honda was at serious risk of an unwanted and hostile takeover by Mitsubishi Motors, which at the time was a larger automaker by volume and was flush with profits from its successful Pajero and Diamante models.[21]
Kawamoto acted quickly to change Honda's corporate culture, rushing through market-driven product development that resulted in recreational vehicles such as the first-generation Odyssey and the CR-V, and a refocusing away from some of the numerous sedans and coupes that were popular with the company's engineers but not with the buying public. The most shocking change to Honda came when Kawamoto ended the company's successful participation in Formula One after the 1992 season, citing costs in light of the takeover threat from Mitsubishi as well as the desire to create a more environmentally friendly company image.[22]
The Honda Aircraft Company as established in 2006 as a wholly owned subsidiary to manufacture and sell the HondaJet family of aircraft.[23][24] The first deliveries to customers began in December 2015.[25]
On 23 February 2015, Honda announced that CEO and President Takanobu Ito would step down and be replaced by Takahiro Hachigo by June; additional retirements by senior managers and directors were expected.[26]
In October 2019, Honda was reported to be in talks with Hitachi to merge the two companies' car parts businesses, creating a components supplier with almost $17 billion in annual sales.[27]
In January 2020, Honda announced that it would be withdrawing employees working in the city of Wuhan, Hubei, China due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[28] Due to the global spread of the virus, Honda became the first major automaker with operations in the US to suspend production in its factories on March 23, 2020. It resumed automobile, engine and transmission production at its US plants on May 11, 2020.[29]
Honda and General Motors announced in September 2020 a North American alliance to begin in 2021.[30] According to The Detroit Free Press, "The proposed alliance will include sharing a range of vehicles, to be sold under each company’s distinct brands, as well as cooperation in purchasing, research and development, and connected services."[31]

Our Well breed Native Dogs
The Indian Pariah:
The Indian pariah dog, also known as INDog, South Asian pye dog and Desi Dog, is a landrace of dog native to the Indian subcontinent. They have erect ears, a wedge-shaped head, and a curved tail. It is easily trainable and often used as a guard dog and police dog. This dog is an example of an ancient group of dogs known as pye-dogs. It is possible that the ancestors of this dog dates back 4,500 years ago.
Pariah dogs are very alert and social. They are used as guard dogs and police dogs, being very territorial and defensive. They need good socializing as pups and do well with families and children if provided with such socialization. They are highly intelligent and easily trainable; to this end, veterinarian Premlata Choudhary stated that "desi dogs are much more intelligent and hardy than most pedigreed dogs that people spend so much money on."
The German Shepherd:
The German Shepherd (German: Deutscher Schäferhund, German pronunciation: [ˈdɔʏtʃɐ ˈʃɛːfɐˌhʊnt]) is a breed of medium to large-sized working dog that originated in Germany. In the English language, the breed's officially recognized name is German Shepherd Dog (GSD). The breed was officially known as the Alsatian in the UK from after the First World War until 1977 when its name was changed back to German Shepherd. Despite its primitive, wolf-like appearance, the German Shepherd is a relatively modern breed of dog, with their origin dating to 1899.
While an Australian report from 1999 provides statistics showing that German Shepherds are the breed third most likely to attack a person in some Australian locales, once their popularity is taken into account, the percentages of GSD attacks drops to 38th.
According to the National Geographic Channel television show Dangerous Encounters, the bite of a German Shepherd has a force of over 1,060 newtons (238 lbf)
German Shepherds are moderately active dogs and are described in breed standards as self assured. The breed is marked by a willingness to learn and an eagerness to have a purpose. They are curious, which makes them excellent guard dogs and suitable for search missions. They can become overprotective of their family and territory, especially if not socialized correctly. They are not inclined to become immediate friends with strangers. German Shepherds are highly intelligent and obedient, as well as protective of their owners.
After all the comparisons, our native dog Indian Pariah is genetically antique and that's easy to train. They need lower foods than the foreign breeds and can survive much more time without diseases.

Magical water of river Padma
Last Friday I went to the embankment near river Padma. It was noon and the sky was covered with clouds like cotton. Me and my friends looked at the river and found the magical thing we never witnessed.
The river's water was lighter in some areas and darker in others. We watched sometimes this and found that the light of the sun was just doing the magic😂
Clouds have some gaps between them. The sun's rays can come through the gaps and fall into the water. This makes the water lighter than other area where light was not falling. I tried to take clear pics. But that was happening so fast to capture.

Hangout
What can be more boring and painful than sitting home lonely and just staying at home? I think there is nothing. Even though we have many ways to communicate with our friends and families, we don't get the peace which we might get from meeting them and hangout with them.
I became very much bore and it was quite impossible for me to stay at home anymore. My soul was just begging to go out. So, I called my same thinking friends and went on a photoshoot as an excuse that we were going to hangout. We met, we laughed, we chilled, we fought, we talked and obviously........we share our toxic experiences to live in our houses for such a long time without any works🙂.
It was a great time. I mean the meal time🥰
I ate fuchka with @tariqmahmud0
Finally. Feeling delighted and happy🥰
Cameron Monaghan in Gotham series as Jerome/Jeremiah
We like joker as villain in our childhood. But as we grow up, our likes change. We love to take our villain as our hero🥰
The Gotham series has 5 seasons and a total of 120 to 125 episodes. Here we can see the most liked joker after Heath Ledger, Jerome and Jeremiah🥳.

He is known for his role as Ian Gallagher on the Showtime comedy-drama series Shameless and as twins Jerome and Jeremiah Valeska, who serve as origins for the Joker, on the DC Comics-based TV series Gotham.[1] He also portrayed Cal Kestis in the action-adventure game Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order. Monaghan began his career as a child model at the age of three and as a child actor at the age of seven.
From 2015 to 2019, Monaghan was featured as a recurring guest star in all five seasons of Fox's DC Comics-based television series Gotham. He plays the antagonistic twin brothers Jerome and Jeremiah Valeska, who both serve origin stories for the famous Batman villain The Joker.
Light Bokeh
In photography, bokeh (/ˈboʊkə/ BOH-kə or /ˈboʊkeɪ/ BOH-kay; Japanese: [boke]) is the aesthetic quality of the blur produced in out-of-focus parts of an image. Bokeh has also been defined as "the way the lens renders out-of-focus points of light".[5] Differences in lens aberrations and aperture shape cause very different bokeh effects.[6] Some lens designs blur the image in a way that is pleasing to the eye, while others produce distracting or unpleasant blurring ("good" and "bad" bokeh, respectively).[6] Photographers may deliberately use a shallow focus technique to create images with prominent out-of-focus regions, accentuating their lens's bokeh.
Bokeh is often most visible around small background highlights, such as specular reflections and light sources, which is why it is often associated with such areas.[6] However, bokeh is not limited to highlights; blur occurs in all regions of an image which are outside the depth of field. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_source#Light https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specular_reflection https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_light_sources https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bokeh#cite_note-davis-6 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depth_of_field

Flower, insects and Pollination
Pollination: An Introduction
In angiosperms, pollination is defined as the placement or transfer of pollen from the anther to the stigma of the same or a different flower. In gymnosperms, pollination involves pollen transfer from the male cone to the female cone. Upon transfer, the pollen germinates to form the pollen tube and the sperm that fertilize the egg.
Self-Pollination and Cross-Pollination
Pollination takes two forms: self-pollination and cross-pollination. Self-pollination occurs when the pollen from the anther is deposited on the stigma of the same flower or another flower on the same plant. Cross-pollination is the transfer of pollen from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower on a different individual of the same species. Self-pollination occurs in flowers where the stamen and carpel mature at the same time and are positioned so that the pollen can land on the flower’s stigma. This method of pollination does not require an investment from the plant to provide nectar and pollen as food for pollinators. These types of pollination have been studied since the time of Gregor Mendel. Mendel successfully carried out self-pollination and cross-pollination in garden peas while studying how characteristics were passed on from one generation to the next. Today’s crops are a result of plant breeding, which employs artificial selection to produce the present-day cultivars. An example is modern corn, which is a result of thousands of years of breeding that began with its ancestor, teosinte. The teosinte that the ancient Mesoamericans originally began cultivating had tiny seeds, vastly different from today’s relatively giant ears of corn. Interestingly, though these two plants appear to be entirely different, the genetic difference between them is miniscule.

Fungus and Mushrooms
The **key difference** between mushrooms and fungus is that the **mushrooms are fruiting bodies of certain fungi belonging to the order Agaricales of phylum** **Basidiomycota** **while the fungus is any member of** **eukaryotic** **microorganisms such as** **yeast, moulds****,** **mildews****, mushrooms, etc., that belong to kingdom Fungi.** https://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-ascomycetes-and-vs-basidiomycetes/ https://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-eukaryotic-and-vs-prokaryotic/ https://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-molds-and-yeasts/ https://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-mold-and-mildew/
Kingdom Fungi is one of the five kingdoms of living organisms. However, they are a separate class of microorganisms that reproduce from spores and are thus different from plants that can do photosynthesis to make food for themselves. Fungi consist of moulds, yeast, mildew, and mushrooms. Moreover, fungi can be either unicellular or multicellular. Mushrooms are fruiting bodies of a certain group of fungi, and most common or famous of these are those that have a button like structure with a stem. Mushrooms can either edible or non-edible (poisonous).

Macro Photography
Macro means something tiny but not that kind which we can't see with ojust our eyes.
I am not any professional photographer. But passion for photography always leads and pushes to capture the beautiful nature. Though I can't just do it amazing but I try hard to make sens how beautiful things can be.
"Beauty lies beneath the nature"
Even the smallest things has incredible beauty we won't find in the huge blue sea or sky 😊
Here's some macro shots by me
I don't know why this simple green leaves appealed me to capture it's photo🙂
This was more beautiful than this picture. There was a blueish white gradient in the flower in real. Due to low quality camera, that just faded away.
I know this pic is blurry. Sorry for my unstable hands. Actually there were about 44 degree celcious temperature. That's why the blurry effect appeared.
Now, this picture might be awful for somebody. This is nothing but a baby sparrow. It's length was about 2 inches. Due to Corona, my college was off and nobody cleaned the floors . I went my college today and found this poor little bird. I last saw it when it was an egg in it's parents nest. Anyhow it got down from there and there is only bones and some feathers in the dead body.
Hope you guys like it.
Thank you so much for reading🥰
Caption it
I just took this picture in this morning but failed to find any caption.
It's a new morning and new day, another chance to see the beautiful world and the creatures.
Just caption the pic. Let's see who's caption is gonna be the most interesting 🤟
Did you know?
Have anybody saw it before? I didn't.

Kans grass and colourful sky
In every poetry kans grass has gained its own place strongly because of its white beauty in the woods. I'm Bangladeshi and in my county Kans Grass is very common in this season. These grasses increases the beauty of the landscape and add extra dimensions 🥰
Now let's see about its scientific identity 🤟
It's scientific name is ***Saccharum spontaneum*** (**wild sugarcane**, **Kans grass**, Bengali: কাশ. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengali_language
In the Terai-Duar savanna and grasslands, a lowland ecoregion at the base of the Himalaya range in Nepal, India, Bangladesh and Bhutan, kans grass quickly colonises exposed silt plains created each year by the retreating monsoon floods, forming almost pure stands on the lowest portions of the floodplain. Kans grasslands are an important habitat for the Indian rhinoceros (Rhinoceros unicornis). In Nepal, kans grass is harvested to thatch roofs or fence vegetable gardens.
Elsewhere, its ability to quickly colonize disturbed soil has allowed it to become an invasive species that takes over croplands and pasturelands.
All pics are captured by me. I fetch some info from Wikipedia.

Hibiscus Rosa sinesis
This flower is called a full flower. Beautiful isn't she?
Their morals, their code; it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. You'll see- I'll show you. When the chips are down these, uh, civilized people? They'll eat each other. See I'm not a monster, I'm just ahead of the curve.
Smile, because it confuses people.
Smile, because it's easier than explaining what is killing you inside.
The smallest
Pygmy marmoset
This is the world's smallest monkey species. These are so small to fit in our fingers.
About 83% of the pygmy marmoset population lives in stable troops of two to nine individuals, including a dominant male, a breeding female, and up to four successive litters of offspring. The modal size of a standard stable troop would be six individuals.[3] Although most groups consist of family members, some may also include one or two additional adult members. Members of the group communicate using a complex system including vocal, chemical, and visual signals. Three main calling signals depend on the distance the call needs to travel. These monkeys may also make visual displays when threatened or to show dominance. Chemical signaling using secretions from glands on the chest and genital area allow the female to indicate to the male when she is able to reproduce. The female gives birth to twins twice a year and the parental care is shared between the group. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pygmy_marmoset#cite_note-3 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parental_care
The pygmy marmoset has been viewed as somewhat different from typical marmosets, most of which are classified in the genera *Callithrix* and *Mico*, and thus is accorded its own genus, *Cebuella*, within the family Callitrichidae. The biggest threats are habitat loss and the pet trade. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marmoset https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callithrix https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mico_(genus) https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monotypic_taxon https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callitrichidae https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habitat_destruction https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wildlife_trade
Rivers and clouds
I went for a morning walk and those clouds just said, " Hey buddy! What are you waiting for? Don't you wanna take a picture?" I just took my phone and started to capture.
There was a matte effect due to fog. Also humidity level was normal and the temperature was bearable.
The next photo
Comparing with the previous pic here this pic shows there are waves in the river. This pic was captures just after one hour of the previous. But the change in the weather was massive. Though the waves seems to be small and normal in the pic, they were huge. The sudden change just attracted me to write this article 🙂

Sunset sky
What can be more romantic than a candle light dinner?
The answer could be a sunset🙂😘. Sunset just colours the sky with lots of colours. It seems to be a festival of colour held in the sky. I took this photo at the end of the dusk.
Well, all these are raw pics. No editing has performed. I just exclaimed watching these sceneries I had ever watched before.
If anybody showed me these pics and asked me to guess the place I would never go for Bangladesh. Even it doesn't look like. But beauty lies beneath nature not the place🙂. Here's another one from a few distance
Hope you guys like it. Just need inspiration to go on😩 thank you
