Thank you all for your inspiring work and encouragement.
Pelecanus conspicillatus
An Australian Pelican photographed at Jawbone Reserve in Williamstown, Victoria, with two black swans adding a little bit of composition in the background.
The image is uncropped, and thus getting the alignment of birds going in opposite directions to fit into the one frame was a case of 'spray & pray'.
Beyond the fountain, you can see Prince-Regent Street, seen from the viewpoint of the Angel of Peace column, which owes its name to Prince-Regent Luitpold who had it built in 1890.
Para lá da fonte, consegue ver-se a Rua do PrÃncipe Regente, observada a partir do miradouro da coluna do Anjo da Paz, e que deve o seu nome ao prÃncipe-regente Luitpold que a mandou construir em 1890.
The following is the caption I wrote almost 6 years ago:
NRFF (North Reading Fast Freight) swings around the new bridge and onto the CNJ which the majority of the train is still occupying at RIVER. In the bottom left is the Lehigh Valley, whose alignment the train will hop on about a mile further up at COAL and as it heads for Pittston.
The quartet of SD40-2's is abnormal at very least, and likely rare especially with the additional influx of former CSX SD50's. The consist today owes to the large (for this assignment) 60 car train. They'd end up making about 15-20mph up the grade to Crestwood.
The last large batch of thunderheads on this warmest day of the year so far (84 degrees) has mostly moved out of frame and the next batch would put this scene in shadow before the train was halfway by. The Glen Onoko access here was loaded with people enjoying the weather despite the state not being one of the ones that are "reopening" after the Covid crisis.
Shooting the same locations can have some big drawbacks .. they force us to try to find new angles and takes on things ... New locations on the other hand inspire and enchant us.
Well this isn't a new location .. far from it indeed. but, having shot it a 'few' times from all sorts of angles I was blown away when the fates (and a few years watching storms move over the Illawarra) aligned tonight and pinned the tail on the donkey for me.
Easily one of my favourite images of 2019 so far.
A good morning.

Looking West over Cuttagee Lake this evening. Venus, followed by Jupiter, Antares (α Scorpii), Saturn, Galactic Centre and Mars.
Mars is past the zenith.
Zodiacal Light too?
Taken with a full spectrum modified Pentax K5, but no lens filter in place for the exposure.

ELO - Time: Ticket to the Moon (HD Vinyl Recording)
Rivers of words have been written about the event, so I will not dwell ...
I can say that I hoped to see the biggest moon, but it was at the maximum distance, we can not have everything together; )
Thanks for your recent visits, favorites, comments and invitations. I go slow, but everything is very much appreciated, as always....

Here is a shot of Devils Tower at twilight with the Belt of Venus and the Moon serving as a beautiful, colorful backdrop for the scene. I had this entire area to myself, and it really was a peaceful and serene as it looks.
A playground that no longer exists. Behind the fence, a Ford factory that no longer exists.
From nearly 40 years ago, but there will be many a playground that looks like this today.
What I most love about camera paintings is when elements of the same scene get mixed. Here, for instance, the image of the trees has been mixed with the texture of the ground all in the one single exposure. This adds a lot more interest to the image. This piece will be printed 1 meter wide for the upcoming exhibition "Slowlight and the dancing trees" which will be sponsored by EPSON.

The Doric columns in the temple of Aphaia on the island of Aegina shows how the ancient Greeks were very familiar with the idea of alignment. But in nature the cracks in a large, old stump also show a radial alignment, shown using a TextureLabs texture.
HMMM
Semmering railway is great place to spot trains, but it is even better when there is two of them simultaneously. This occurred on the Krauselklause viaduct when two Railjets heading towards opposite directions of ÖBB aligned perfectly to each other. Both of the were hauled by Taurus electric locomotives with variations in their liveries.

HFF!
I found this fence while out for a drive in the countryside. The fence posts were in perfect alignment...straight as an arrow! You don't see that very often in rural areas.
No this is not Shanghai, Tokyo or New York but it’s an architectural snippet of the Zuidas. A place that is evolving into Amsterdam's prime location for international businesses and modern homes - Zuidas, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
Sounds like a Bourne novel title doesn't it? Was trying to find a clever title for an image that is [to me] interestingly framed. The two churches along the Limmat river form the "goal posts" and between them you have two bright stars visible in the blue hour night... except that these aren't stars, this is Jupiter (on the left) and Venus (on the right) and they are getting closer in alignment all through the month of June until they appear nearly converged towards the end of June. This is a rare alignment and I had no idea as I was framing the shot. In fact, I hadn't intended to capture any stars at all, was hoping for some sunset color reflected in the water between my Zurich "goal posts", but sunset was a total bust (almost no color whatsoever).
Taken with Pentax K-3 and trusty Pentax 12-24mm.
Last week the conditions were perfect for the full moon and Trans America Building to intersect each other in perfect harmony. I met up with Tim McManus, and we walked down to Kirby Cove. For the long walk down, I brought a large wagon filled with two big lenses, tripod, and camera gear.
It was probably the warmest evening I have ever experienced at the Marin Headlands. We got down to the beach, and there was hardly a breeze. We set up our gear, and watched San Francisco reflect brilliant light towards us as the sun set behind us. The Golden glow from all the building's windows was amazing to watch. You could just tell with these conditions it was going to be a good moonrise! Nick Steinberg, and Stephen Boyle were set up next to us, and we waited for the moon to rise with some of the best conditions anyone could ask for.
Watching the moon ascend behind San Francisco on this evening was amazing! There were so many great moments during the moonrise, but this shot was my absolute favorite.
This is a single shot taken with a 600mm lens @ F/4 @ 1/4 second @ ISO 100.
My 600mm has no cpu chip, so my camera never records accurate exif info.
A big thanks to Tim for all his help!
Thanks for looking!
The 5 planets from Rippon Tor which visible in the pre-dawn sky. Mercury, Venus, Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter.
