More than 10 years in Ghent and the city still keeps surprising us… As some of you may know Ghent used to have its own zoo. Regrettably, the zoo had to make way for the fast-growing city and was replaced by working class housing in the 19th century. The architect Charles Van Rysselberghe built the houses around an elliptical inner courtyard that became the playground of at least three generations of working-class children. Unfortunately, not much was invested in the site and after 100 years it was completely dilapidated. In 2001 this architectural gem was saved from destruction and the site was completely renovated in 2006 and converted into the Zebrastraat project: a place to be for events and meetings, in a vibrant setting of cultural activities, contemporary living surrounded by an impressive art collection – Zebrastraat, Ghent, Belgium.
That time of year when the sun sets perfectly behind Wembley Stadium from my favourite vantage point across Brent Reservoir. One of those sunsets that just kept getting better
SD40-3 6926 an ex CN unit has stopped almost in alignment. They were spotting the passenger train and had run the 2 locomotive around to lead back to Candor. Only needed a couple feet to align the bridge logo with the locomotive logo.
With a shady slide under my belt I felt I needed to get back to some serious sliding - this subject seems to fit quite nicely!! They seem to like the Black Eyed Susan Flowers and were aligned upside down along the stem.
For Sliders Sunday - HSS!
Planetary alignment in the dawn of June 24, 2022. Mercury (as expected) is lost in the twilight (even if, with a lot of imagination and a little good will, one might see a tiny dot of light in the right place in the original RAW files), the rest of the planets are visible "in the correct order", i.e. corresponding to the actual distance from the Sun. The Moon (with visible Earthsine!) represents the Earth-Moon-system in this row: Mercury (Merkur) - Venus - Moon (Mond) - Mars - Jupiter - Saturn.
Another visit to Torbay and so I couldn't help myself but to go for another Alignment shot. This time, I got lucky with a thin slot or sky on the horizon (and not coming a cropper on the rock face I had to clamber across and perch on to get this).
Not my tidiest work. The Moon was pretty bright and Venus wasn't visible until well into the dawn. I couldn't see Mercury at all, but it's hiding in the sunlight below Venus.

The gallery was created with Craiyon and scenes in the tinyplanets were all generated by text prompts in Skybox AI.
Taken after calibrating rangefinder's horizontal and vertical alignments, 1/30th at f/3.5, handheld. On an SLR, I can only handhold at about 1/100th, so pretty good that I can do two stops better on a rangefinder.

I've had this alignment in mind for some time ... and today I finally got around to having a dig at it..
Looking up at the sun coming through the trees. Cropped and digitally mirrored so the sun and trees appear to be looking back.
A Southern Pacific Brakeman muscles the bridge of the gallows-style, "Armstrong" turntable into perfect alignment as his crew prepares to turn Locomotive #18 in the yard at Laws, California.
This image was made during a March, 2023 photo shoot at the Laws Museum, near Bishop, California, which featured Southern Pacific, Baldwin 10-wheeler #18 on her second visit to the property since the completion of her restoration in 2017.
- www.kevin-palmer.com - The two brightest objects in the night sky appear side by side in front of the milky way in a rare alignment. Venus is the blue object, and the yellow object is the moon. Even though the moon was only an 8% crescent, it was brighter than Venus. The band of yellow along the horizon is from the last colors of twilight before it was completely dark. This incredible sky is framed over the Colorado River in Utah. The 2000 foot deep canyon is part of Canyonlands National Park. But this view was actually shot from the edge of a cliff at Dead Horse Point State Park.
To get this shot I combined 2 exposures. The canyon was shot at 8 minutes, f/4, iso 1600. The sky was a 4 minute, f/5.6, iso 1600 exposure. I used an iOptron Skytracker to track the stars for a longer exposure.
I don't think these are particularly good shots and I probably wouldn't have posted them except for the fact that I was shocked how well they lined up. Not only the angle but the wheel wells also. I wasn't even trying to do this. Funny how things like this happen. Maybe it says something about our internal levels. Or it's just random.

Not a fan of the EXIF data getting mangled from editing. That’s some bullshit.
