SNCF 2325 pulls train number 5741, the diverted Paris Austerlitz to Cerbère sleeper (via Montpellier Saint-Roch and Sete), across the bridge at Port-la-Nouvelle on the morning of April 18th, 2025 at 08:27.
A 4km trek uphill to a private viewpoint at our resort at Nelliyampathy, seemed tiresome in the beginning as it was very steep, but as the sheer beauty of Nature slowly unfolded before our very eyes, it became an extravaganza of visual treat, which seemed to pump enough adrenaline to take us to the summit. The sunrise along with the amazing cloud pattern at the summit closely resembled a Gateway to Heaven. The visual wonder which we witnessed is even beyond this picture captured by the camera...

After went to the doctor we had lunch at the Iguatemi Shopping Mall.
It's not a good pic, I know, but I have to take pictures or I'll die.
Photography is my EYE, my love, my soul. Now is very important to me trying to see something, even with my eyes blurred, dilated, bad....and I just see through my camera.I don't know what will happen tomorrow, if I'll see clearly again or not. I don't know anything so I keep trying feel alive.
As Nerogue storms the location of the Weapon from the front, a group of Outlaws come from behind. The defending Enalicans must now face a two-way assault. And the attackers are determined to succeed at any cost.
My entry for the August UC in the Lands of Mythron. This is a collaborative effort between Nerogue and the Outlaws to eliminate Enalica's Weapon of Mass Destruction before it can be turned against them.

Isle of Man Steam Railway carriages at the platform of Port Erin station.
The Isle of Man Steam Railway is the longest narrow gauge steam line in Britain that still uses its original locomotives and carriages.
The three foot narrow gauge railway was opened in 1874 and runs through the Island’s countryside between the Island’s capital, Douglas, and destinations in the south
67014 stands on the Redditch branch platform at Barnt Green after terminating here.The loco was booked to run fom Kings Norton to Hereford but finished here and went back. All the interest today was light engine moves!
When Fujifilm’s Acros II was announced, I had mixed feelings. It reminded me of when I went to see the Cure on their farewell tour in the early 1990s. I cried throughout the show at the Wembley Arena, believing that I’d never again see the band that had just released what I thought to be the greatest record of all time, Disintegration.
When they returned a few years later, I never quite forgave them, and still think that they never made any music that was close to comparing to the magnificent gloominess of Disintegration. That may have been because I’d moved on, but it could well have been because of the emotions that they put me through by going away, and returning before my cheeks were dry.
You see, I’d had quite an attachment to Fujifilm’s Neopan Acros before it was discontinued. I’d taken many of my favourite pictures using it, often at night, taking advantage of the film’s unmatched abilities to handle long exposures.
While I was pretty disappointed when it was announced that it was to be discontinued (note: we shoot film in the 21st century and therefore cannot have any expectations that companies will continue to make what is barely even a niche product), I set about auditioning a new favourite and settled quickly on Ilford’s FP4+. I’d moved on.
Acros II was initially released in Japan, and a friend of a friend arranged to import a few rolls privately. We came to an arrangement that meant I would end up with two rolls of the film in 120 format. By way of an experiment, I headed out into last night’s fog and shot a few of what both Graeme on Sunny 16, and Mike on the Negative Positives refer to as my ‘signature image’, that is a lone LED street light in the dark.
I shot the roll at EI160 and mostly around f/5.6-f/8 and am delighted to report that the new formulation (which is made in the UK) does everything that the old version did. The detail is superb, with endless tones in the grey areas, lovely dark blacks and not a hint of grain.
It is exactly how I like my film to look…
On this occasion, I didn’t expose anything for more than about six seconds, so reciprocity wasn’t an issue. On the next roll, I’ll push things further and see how if performs when exposures get up towards a couple of minutes. If as I expect, it’s like the old stuff, it’ll be just fine.

At the southern end of Bondi Beach is a pool known as the Bondi Icebergs. The Icebergs are actually a club of swimmers whose origins date back to 1929. The original Icebergs were life savers from Bondi Beach that wanted to stay fit during the cold winter months. To be a member, swimmers needed to compete at least three Sundays out of four for a period of five years. After nearly ninety years, this rule still exists making it a club for dedicated swimmers only.
This photo was taken in the morning not long after sunrise. It is a single exposure taken at 1/320 of a second with an aperture of f/4. As quite a fast shutter speed was used, this image was hand held when taken.
Today marked the final run of NS 256, the eastbound empty RoadRailer from Kansas City to Detroit. NS marked the occasion by supplying the 8100, the Nickel Plate Road heritage unit, to lead the final move of the 256. These RoadRailer trains have been part of NS since the formation of Triple Crown in 1986 thanks to the 1978 revival of the RoadRailer concept by the Bi-Modal Company (later renamed to RoadRailer and purchased by Wabash National). It's a sad day to see the final eastbound, but it at least went out with a bang - nice power choice, making good time, and suffering no mechanical issues as so many other of these trains have in recent months. The huge crowd of railfans sure helped make the day a bigger event.
Lots is being said and will be said about the messiness of todays 256 chase misadventures. Rumours of major accidents, near misses, and dangerous maneuvers to get ahead for the next photo. Still, despite the general messiness of the day, it was nice to see a big sendoff for the RoadRailer. We have just one more of them to run tomorrow, and and who knows how that'll go. For my part, anyway, I'm just glad I got to see and capture these last trains.
At Curran, a last minute huge gathering of railfans captured the NS8100 absolutely flying under the long abandoned CNW trackage. This was my first and last time shooting a RoadRailer here, and I only made it with seconds to spare. Close call, one of just many this crazy day...
Fox squirrels on campus at the University of Michigan on Monday November 21st, 2025. Wishing you joy, health, and peace wherever you are.
If you forgot to
rake up the leaves, that's OK.
Makes for a great nest.

Sunrise at Timberline.
Two shot pano. When photomerge compensated for the lens distortion there wasn't much left at the bottom. I should have taken six vertical shot's.
Early morning scenic views by the bay on a rainy day at Woy Woy on the Central Coast, NSW, Australia.
"At Thhe Top" es el mirador del piso 124 a 442 metros de altura situado en el edificio Burj Khalifa en Dubai, nos levantamos a las 5 de la mañana y casi nos perdimos pero al final valio la pena y mucho.....

Intento nuevamente levantar el vuelo,
junto a mi fiel compañera la esperanza.
Mi equipaje es ligero, solo llevo confianza,
paz, risas, sueños e ilusiones bajo el cielo.

I'm trying to get airborne again
with my faithful companion the hope.
My luggage is light, I only carry confidence,
peace, laughter, dreams and illusions under heaven.
Peter took the scene at the exact moment the signalman and fireman were holding the token for the single line. Unfortunately on this holiday the Shoesmith's did not have good weather, they seemed to have had slate grey sky everyday and to judge by the puddle rain too.
The station house looks charming, clad as it is in ivy, meanwhile in the substantial shelter a lady is watching Peter rather than the token exchange.
W29 Alverstone was built at Nine Elms Works, it was an Adams 02, it entered service with the LSWR in July 1881. W29 was withdrawn during May 1966.

I wasn't happy with any of my pictures of the small herd of Bighorn Sheep I came across today. But I thought I'd give this younger guy a few minutes of exposure...
Autumn is a beautiful season at Kvarnbacken in Mårdsjön, Jämtland, Sweden. I adore the vibrant colors and the crisp, clear morning air.

At the Butterfly Conservatory these little feeding stations attract the Butterflies to make it easier for people to take photos of them!
At that evening, I reached the summit of Scharfreiter a short time before sunset. It was somehow crowded there with sheep.
It took some time until they were willing to leave the place. I took some shots of the scenery and after that, I had the problem to build up a tent at a very small area, covered with sheep faecals :-)
Anyhow, I really like the mood at this shot!
