CSX 7791 leads M336 south at Rugby siding with two other GEs behind. As someone who started railfanning off these CSX 7000 units, it's nice to see them still earning their keep.

I finally found some real evidence of steelmaking at Allenport - a couple of rusted rolling mill rolls hanging out in the sunshine. Can I get one of these as a lawn ornament?
Glacier travel is slow. Peak Lenin, Kyrgyzstan at about 4500 meters.
The way back down the mountain is the most exhausting. Having expended more energy than you had to summit, every step is slow and sloppy and doesn't seem to bring you any closer to the green grass and blue skies of your past universe.
A very huge stitched pano converted to B&W. I liked the dark mood and dramatic sky that resulted.

Landing on runway 25.
138th TFG - 125th TFS - Oklahoma Air National Guard based at Tulsa OK.
They were at Wittering for Exercise Coronet Barracuda. The deployment was from 13 to 27 April and consisted of 11 A-7D's and one A-7K.
The russian word "Soyuz" means "Union". The first Soyuz manned mission took place in 1967 and different variants of the ship have been used for more than 50 years since. All Soyuz spacecraft are based on the same basic design, by Sergei Korolev, and consists of 3 parts: the orbital module (in the front of the spacecraft), the descent or reentry module (middle section) and the service module (the rear section, has the solar pannels and engines).
Korolev wanted a multipurpose ship, capable of transporting people and cargo to low Earth orbit and even devised a version capable of carrying astronauts to the moon (which unfortunately was never used). The Soyuz has served as multipurpose ship in countless missions, allowing, for example, the continued operation of the Mir space station (Mir means "Peace") for many years.
The Soyuz (variant Soyuz-MS) is still in active service and is now the spacecraft used for transport people and supplies to and from the International Space Station.
The Soyuz LEGO Model
This is a LEGO model of a Soyuz 7K-TM ship, a variant of Soyuz used in 1975. The model has about 500 pieces and includes a stand for its exhibition. The three modules can be separated, so you can simulate the separation of the descent module, which is the only part of the spaceship that returns to Earth.
The model reproduces in detail most of the external components of the ship such as engines, radiator, solar pannels, docking system, exterior hatch, periscope and parachute cover. Also the radars, windows and antennas are easily recognizable..
The descent module can be opened and it fit two or three minifigs of cosmonauts (cosmonaut is the russian word for astronaut).

The background image of the main picture and the last picture is from NASA: A bank of clouds over the western Pacific Ocean was photographed by Astronaut Frank Borman and James A. Lovell during the Gemini 7 mission (1965). In the background the moon can be seen.

This month, November 2014, celebrates my 10th year here in the flickr-verse; while things aren't quite what they used to be I still enjoy my time here, and are very active in many groups.
A big thank you to all the people I have met and continue to meet and share photography with.
You rock!
Thanks to PW
An ongoing project that explores photography as evidence, best viewed as a slide show
This image was made with my iPhone sitting in the car in the usual peak hour traffic that can be such a drudge. The light and clouds were amazing. Like so many images made this way I saw an opportunity and took it.
Post production included colour temperature, levels, sharpening using Lightroom.
La 17075 en tête de la VB2N 7K* file sur Paris-Saint-Lazare et assure un Mantes-Paris.
*Notez que la VB2N 7K est une rame de Paris Montparnasse qui a été réduite à six voitures pour être prêté à la région de Paris-Saint-Lazare pour faire des missions sur la ligne J.
