Well having a short day of class allowed me to take a drive, going on a hunch I headed to the Maryland & Delaware's Centerville line. I got into Massey, MD just in time to get the crew rolling two cars past Alco RS3M #1202. The Alco tacked onto the 2 cars and proceeded to take them to Wegner Feed before being done for the day.

Following the purchase of GWR Castle Class No.7029 Clun Castle in January 1966 by Patrick Whitehouse, the locomotive needed a base close to its central West Midlands supporters' base. Whitehouse found space available at Tyseley, on the site of the former GWR depot, and formed 7029 Clun Castle Ltd to own both the locomotive and the rights to stable it at the depot.

 

In October 1968, 7029 Clun Castle Ltd purchased LMS Jubilee Class No.5593 "Kolhapur". With further locomotives and railway artefacts available as a result of the Beeching Axe, the supporters established the Standard Gauge Steam Trust as a registered educational charity, to preserve and demonstrate the steam locomotives. Following negotiations the trust acquired a long-term lease on a large part of the Tyseley site, and established the Tyseley Collection which still owns the locomotives and artefacts via the limited company, the depot site became the "Birmingham Railway Museum".

 

The trust cleared buildings and repaired the dilapidated tracks, and two water columns were repaired to allow steam locomotives to stay at the site. In 1968 the old coaling stage was converted into a two-road shed with an inspection pit to hold both acquired locomotives. In November 1966 Clun Castle was stripped and restored.

 

In 1999 the trust achieved its long-held objective of running a regular steam train service on the national main line railway network: the Shakespeare Express between Birmingham Snow Hill and Stratford-upon-Avon. At this point the trust felt that the term museum was inappropriate for its new status, and hence separated its assets and operations into two new organisations, Tyseley Locomotive Works and the operating arm Vintage Trains, with the third arm remaining the Tyseley Collection.

The moment he allowed me to capture his beauty

The Collingwood Centre, Nelson

 

Conceived as two wings linked by a full height glass atrium, the Collingwood Centre is situated on the inner city fringe, straddling 105-111 Collingwood Street. This commercial development took five years in its planning, design, documentation and construction.

 

The brief from the clients was simple, “we don’t want a box”. What they did want was a modern, sustainable, commercial shell to allow medical and professional tenants to co-locate.

 

The building is orientated on the site to address the Collingwood and St Johns Street corner, to provide a visual link across the road to Buxton car park and provide an active frontage along Collingwood Street. The vehicle access is via an entry off Collingwood Street to discreet parking along the side of the site and at the rear, exiting onto St Johns Lane.

 

Timber battens adorn the exterior and wrap into the full height entry void serving as a wayfinding mechanism. They also act as sun and privacy screens and provide a softer skin over the precast concrete panels. Low maintenance materials have been selectively wrapped around main structural elements, some of which have been expressed on the interior and exterior of the building.

 

A DNA styled façade above a trickling water feature draws users to the main entry atrium where they can orientate themselves within the building. The full height structural concrete wall creates a central spine to the building and acts to passively regulate the atrium temperature in conjunction with auto opening skylights above.

this ruby-throated hummingbird appears to have no wings, since the shutter could not catch up with the 80 beats per second! Fun fact: hummingbirds don't flap their wings but rotate in a figure 8 to allow backward and hovering ability.

happy to find this little guy in my yard. don't know how he allowed a macro but he did. couldn't quite get all of him in focus due to the aperture and poor light...

peace to flow

into you as

sunshine flows

As ‘32 Ford (“Deuce”) rods go, this one is a really clean example. Thankfully conditions at the moment allowed a nice, unobstructed view of this car, always something of a fleeting moment at any given Cars & Coffee type event!

Met these lovely ladies at the basement of the art gallery.

They allowed me to taken this low light photo while they were reading the introduction.

My young daughter set up the props for this shot but they were rearranged a few times by the snail. My schedule didn't allow time for photography this morning so I was forced to take this inside with artificial lights tonight. Feeling off my game this weekend, hoping for a fresh start again tomorrow.

After the softning of the lockdown last Monday, all stores and schools are still closed but we are allowed to take the car for visiting a park. So yesterday we did that :) Me and my daughter agreed we continue our walks until she can go back to school, hopefully somewhere end of May, beginning of June.

 

I visited Gripsholm Castle with a friend of mine the other week. It's one of the Royal Palaces in Sweden, located just a couple of miles from my hometown. Look at the EXIF, you rarely see me go as high as ISO 500! This place don't allow tripods.

This large adult frog was one of dozens observed on a rainy, warm evening. As the first storm system moved in, light rain began and continued for thirty minutes before I saw any amphibian activity. After that point green frogs, bull frogs, and southern leopard frogs began moving across the road. Shortly thereafter spring peepers and smallmouth salamanders joined them. The heavy rains following allowed for many (but not all) of the early Spring amphibians to migrate to or close to ephemeral pools.

Cappadocia is known around the world as one of the best places to fly with hot air balloons. The spectacular surrealistic landscapes combined with excellent flying conditions allow the balloons to gently drift over and between fairy chimneys, pigeon houses hewn into the unique rock formations, orchards and vineyards – through impressive valleys, each with distinctive rock formations, colors and features – and then float up over rippled ravines for breathtaking views over the region.

The long days of lockdown are allowing me to edit photographs that, for lack of time, had been waiting on the hard drive for a long time. Not knowing when we can travel again makes me feel even more fortunate to have visited so many countries and even lived in some of them, like Italy. Although the situation in the transalpine country is improving, our plans to return in November will have to wait until who knows when. I had in mind to return to Italy once a year with my wife, to continue showing her some of the Italian places that I love so much and to continue photographing one of my favorite countries.

More than a year ago we were lucky enough to spend a few days on the Amalfi Coast, and on one of the dawns I walked through the Atrani road to just beyond the northern entrance to this town. With very little space available, I had to use my small mini tripod on one of the guardrails that separated the road from the edge of the cliffs. With almost no room for me, I sat next to the camera to wait for the sunrise. The morning woke up really cloudy, so in the end the blue hour was the best time to capture this less common sight of Atrani. A very small village, but really beautiful.

"Hay una gran belleza en las pequeñas cosas." Mehmet Murat Ildan.

 

Los largos días de confinamiento me están permitiendo editar fotografías que, por falta de tiempo, se habían quedado esperando en el disco duro desde hace mucho. No saber cuando podremos volver a viajar de nuevo, me hace sentirme aún más afortunado por haber visitado tantos países e incluso haber vivido en algunos de ellos, como Italia. Aunque la situación en el país transalpino está mejorando, nuestros planes de volver en noviembre tendrán que esperar quien sabe hasta cuando. Me había propuesto volver a Italia una vez al año con mi mujer, para seguir mostrándole algunos de los lugares que tanto me enamoran y seguir fotografiando uno de mis países favoritos.

Hace más de un año tuvimos la suerte de pasar unos días en la Costa Amalfitana, y en uno de los amaneceres me dirigí caminando por la carretera de Atrani hasta un poco más allá de la entrada norte de esta localidad. Con poquísimo espacio disponible tuve que usar mi pequeño minitrípode sobre uno de los quitamiedos que separaban la carretera del borde de los acantilados. Sin casi espacio para mí me senté junto a la cámara para esperar la salida del sol. Las mañana se despertó realmente nublada, por lo que al final la hora azul fue el momento más idóneo para capturar esta vista menos común de Atrani. Un pueblo muy pequeño, pero realmente bello.

Interesting POV allows the scene to look as if there may be a problem. In reality Aberdeen and Rockfish GP18 #300 will turn to the right in the scene on the already thrown switch behind the hopper allowing the train to bypass the hoppers.

Another from the Milky Way shoot on Friday night. The atmosphere was simply perfect...clear skies, slightly windy which kept us from being devoured alive by the mosquitoes and warm enough not to need an extra layer of clothes.

 

Learning the timing of getting the rays in the lighthouse beam, or just the glow of the light ...learning the correct exposure to ensure round pindots of stars and not oblong blobs! It was fascinating and so interesting that i had no idea that when it was over, it was 2 am! Jay was a terrific teacher and has been more than gracious to offer to take phone calls to rehash what we learned and even to sit and help reset my camera and allow me to write things down when he returns from his Colorado vacation! (I am so bad at numbers and formulas involving math...i need something in writing just to remember them!)

 

This is one of my favorite shots...i love the walkway leading into the scene...THIS will be the next lens i purchase. I borrowed this one from Jay, and it was hands down my favorite lens to use!

 

HAPPY FOURTH of JULY, my friends...stay safe and God Bless America!!

I am spending a considerable amount of time on my belly capturing squirrels, but this male landed right in front of me and it allowed me to take one picture before it flew off.

After the southbound was gone, we were set to run around this BCR northbound freight, headed by three M630, C425 (715-708- ? -405) after it backed past northbound passenger #1 to allow #1 to proceed ahead of it, at "Mons" siding.

A muslim girl was walking up the stairs to the roof of a Masjid, while she looked constantly at the camera with what I was shooting.

Since in general girls are not allowed inside any Masjid, it was nice to see girl inside the Masjid.

Lakeway, TX. Sony A6500 and Lomo T-43 40/4 on helicoid adapter. These lenses are from Russian Smena 8 film cameras from the 1970's. This mint Lomo finally arrived from Ukraine. It focuses slightly past infinity using a standard M39 to Sony E mechanical adapter. I wanted closer focus, so I made this photo with a M39 to Sony E helicoid adapter, which does not allow infinity focus. I will try to find a thinner helicoid that will support infinity focus, while allowing close up focus. The lens is tiny, so the A6500 package is very compact. Thanks to Claude Allaert for the inspiration to acquire one of these fun little lenses.

A late train allows for a sunny-side view on the west side of the Mississippi River lift bridge at Hastings. The Empire Builder departed Saint Paul Union Depot 4 hours and 38 minutes late - a delay that started with the late arrival of train 28 between Portland and Spokane. Needless to say, the Builder never gained its time back allowing for afternoon crossing of the Mississippi River at around 2pm instead of the customary 9:30am

I didn't have a chance to wish everyone a Happy New Year but I'm here now doing it! ♥♥ I hope all of you rock it hard this year in everything you do! ♥♥♥

Landschaftspark Duisburg-Nord --Importance of memory--

 

Landschaftspark is a public park located in Duisburg-Meiderich, Germany. It was designed in 1991 by Latz + Partner (Peter Latz), with the intention that it work to heal and understand the industrial past, rather than trying to reject it. The park closely associates itself with the past use of the site: a coal and steel production plant (abandoned in 1985, leaving the area significantly polluted) and the agricultural land it had been prior to the mid 19th century

 

Conception and creation

In 1991, a co-operative-concurrent planning procedure with five international planning teams was held to design the park. Peter Latz’s design was significant, as it attempted to preserve as much of the existing site as possible. Unlike his competitors, Latz recognized the value of the site’s current condition. He allowed the polluted soils to remain in place and be remediated through phytoremediation, and sequestered soils with high toxicity in the existing bunkers. He also found new uses for many of the old structures, and turned the former sewage canal into a method of cleansing the site.

 

Design

The park is divided into different areas, whose borders were carefully developed by looking at existing conditions (such as how the site had been divided by existing roads and railways, what types of plants had begun to grow in each area, etc.). This piecemeal pattern was then woven together by a series of walkways and waterways, which were placed according to the old railway and sewer systems. While each piece retains its character, it also creates a dialogue with the site surrounding it. Within the main complex, Latz emphasized specific programmatic elements: the concrete bunkers create a space for a series of intimate gardens, old gas tanks have become pools for scuba divers, concrete walls are used by rock climbers, and one of the most central places of the factory, the middle of the former steel mill, has been made into piazza. Each of these spaces uses elements to allow for a specific reading of time.

 

The site was designed with the idea that a grandfather, who might have worked at the plant, could walk with his grandchildren, explaining what he used to do and what the machinery had been used for. At Landschaftspark, memory was central to the design. Various authors have addressed the ways in which memory can inform the visitor of a site, a concept that became prevalent during Postmodernism.

Just home from a very wet and windy 2 weeks near Lochinver where the winds were seldom below 40 knots

I had taken my small dingy and outboard with the idea of trying to capture some images on loch Assynt there were more difficult to access with the hope of getting something a little different.

I watched the forecast which was quite bleak really. There then appeared to be a few hours calm forecast for early the next day. We headed to the planed launching site for a location I had scouted from the road inflated the dingy and left it out of sight on the shore ready for an early start the following morning.

We arrived well early and fitted the engine and headed out onto the loch using torches to look for rocks.

Conditions were really quite good for an hour or so allowing me capture this image of a beautifully shaped pine tree on this small island decorated by a few autumnal colours.

Quite quickly the winds returned and we headed back to the shore an a good cooked breakfast on the camping stove. It was a great morning lots of fun, I hope you enjoy viewing and any comments or critiques always welcome

Zion National Park is an American national park located in southwestern Utah near the city of Springdale. A prominent feature of the 229-square-mile (590 km2) park is Zion Canyon, which is 15 miles (24 km) long and up to 2,640 ft (800 m) deep. The canyon walls are reddish and tan-colored Navajo Sandstone eroded by the North Fork of the Virgin River. The lowest point in the park is 3,666 ft (1,117 m) at Coalpits Wash and the highest peak is 8,726 ft (2,660 m) at Horse Ranch Mountain. Located at the junction of the Colorado Plateau, Great Basin, and Mojave Desert regions, the park has a unique geography and a variety of life zones that allow for unusual plant and animal diversity. Numerous plant species as well as 289 species of birds, 75 mammals (including 19 species of bat), and 32 reptiles inhabit the park's four life zones: desert, riparian, woodland, and coniferous forest. Zion National Park includes mountains, canyons, buttes, mesas, monoliths, rivers, slot canyons, and natural arches. Human habitation of the area started about 8,000 years ago with small family groups of Native Americans, one of which was the semi-nomadic Basketmaker Anasazi (c. 300). Subsequently, the Virgin Anasazi culture (c. 500) and the Parowan Fremont group developed as the Basketmakers settled in permanent communities. Both groups moved away by 1300 and were replaced by the Parrusits and several other Southern Paiute subtribes. Mormons came into the area in 1858 and settled there in the early 1860s. In 1909, President William Howard Taft named the area Mukuntuweap National Monument in order to protect the canyon. In 1918, the acting director of the newly created National Park Service, Horace Albright, drafted a proposal to enlarge the existing monument and change the park's name to Zion National Monument, Zion being a term used by the Mormons. According to historian Hal Rothman: "The name change played to a prevalent bias of the time. Many believed that Spanish and Indian names would deter visitors who, if they could not pronounce the name of a place, might not bother to visit it. The new name, Zion, had greater appeal to an ethnocentric audience." On November 20, 1919, Congress redesignated the monument as Zion National Park, and the act was signed by President Woodrow Wilson. The Kolob section was proclaimed a separate Zion National Monument in 1937, but was incorporated into the national park in 1956. The geology of the Zion and Kolob canyons area includes nine formations that together represent 150 million years of mostly Mesozoic-aged sedimentation. At various periods in that time warm, shallow seas, streams, ponds and lakes, vast deserts, and dry near-shore environments covered the area. Uplift associated with the creation of the Colorado Plateau lifted the region 10,000 feet (3,000 m) starting 13 million years ago. The park is located in southwestern Utah in Washington, Iron and Kane counties. Geomorphically, it is located on the Markagunt and Kolob plateaus, at the intersection of three North American geographic provinces: the Colorado Plateau, the Great Basin, and the Mojave Desert. The northern part of the park is known as the Kolob Canyons section and is accessible from Interstate 15, exit 40. The 8,726-foot (2,660 m) summit of Horse Ranch Mountain is the highest point in the park; the lowest point is the 3,666-foot (1,117 m) elevation of Coal Pits Wash, creating a relief of about 5,100 feet (1,600 m). Streams in the area take rectangular paths because they follow jointing planes in the rocks. The stream gradient of the Virgin River, whose North Fork flows through Zion Canyon in the park, ranges from 50 to 80 feet per mile (9.5 to 15.2 m/km) (0.9–1.5%)—one of the steepest stream gradients in North America. The road into Zion Canyon is 6 miles (9.7 km) long, ending at the Temple of Sinawava, which is named for the coyote god of the Paiute Indians. The canyon becomes more narrow near the Temple and a hiking trail continues to the mouth of The Narrows, a gorge only 20 feet (6 m) wide and up to 2,000 feet (610 m) tall. The Zion Canyon road is served by a free shuttle bus from early April to late October and by private vehicles the other months of the year. Other roads in Zion are open to private vehicles year-round. The east side of the park is served by Zion-Mount Carmel Highway (SR-9), which passes through the Zion–Mount Carmel Tunnel and ends at Mount Carmel. On the east side of the park, notable park features include Checkerboard Mesa and the East Temple. The Kolob Terrace area, northwest of Zion Canyon, features a slot canyon called The Subway, and a panoramic view of the entire area from Lava Point. The Kolob Canyons section, further to the northwest near Cedar City, features one of the world's longest natural arches, Kolob Arch. Other notable geographic features of the park include the Virgin River Narrows, Emerald Pools, Angels Landing, The Great White Throne, and Court of the Patriarchs. Spring weather is unpredictable, with stormy, wet days being common, mixed with occasional warm, sunny weather. Precipitation is normally heaviest in March. Spring wildflowers bloom from April through June, peaking in May. Fall days are usually clear and mild; nights are often cool. Summer days are hot (95 to 110 °F; 35 to 43 °C), but overnight lows are usually comfortable (65 to 70 °F; 18 to 21 °C). Afternoon thunderstorms are common from mid-July through mid-September. Storms may produce waterfalls as well as flash floods. Autumn tree-color displays begin in September in the high country; in Zion Canyon, autumn colors usually peak in late October. Winter in Zion Canyon is fairly mild. Winter storms bring rain or light snow to Zion Canyon and heavier snow to the higher elevations. Clear days may become quite warm, reaching 60 °F (16 °C); nights are often 20 to 40 °F (−7 to 4 °C). Winter storms can last several days and make roads icy. Zion roads are plowed, except the Kolob Terrace Road which is closed when covered with snow. Winter driving conditions last from November through March.

We were not allowed to bring cameras into the show but I snuck my little girl camera in via my back pocket. I tried but really could not get any good shots, we were just too far away.

 

The concert was freakin fabulous and the BOK center is a state of the art place to see a concert as it is only 1 year old. Very nice not to have to drive to Dallas to see good shows anymore.

 

The first pic is me, my son Josh, his best friend Jerry whom I claim as son #2,I'm just glad I didn't birth him as he is a BIG boy, and my daughter-in-law Jennifer whom I adore.

 

All of us had a fantastic evening together and then when Don and I got home around 1:30 am he let me open my Birthday present. It's a 1969 vintage Dual turntable. I fell in love immediately, so since 9:00 this morning we have been listening to old albums I haven't heard in 20 some years. Yes, I am a HAPPY girl!!

 

Off to New Orleans tomorrow morning!

God I love birthdays with Don :)

HOBACK:

 

“In the Tetons, two bull moose seem to get all of the attention: Hoback and Shoshone. There are several other majestic bulls, but over the past couple of years, the dynamic duo has become the stars of the show. Both are stunningly large and relatively “dependable” subjects. There are times, especially early and late in the season, when you might see them together, as they share much of the same territory. Over a period of three or four years of photographing them, I can suggest they enjoy each other’s company. During the heat of the rut, however, they can become mortal enemies!” By Mike R. Jackson www.bestofthetetons.com

 

Moose of Grand Teton

 

Moose are the largest member of the deer family and love cold weather. They frequent marshy meadows and edges of lakes and streams. About 800 Moose inhabit the southern part of Yellowstone, Grand Teton National Park and surrounding national forests. Moose are most heavily concentrated in Grand Teton Park.

 

To keep from sinking in mud while feeding, as the animal lowers its foot, a large dewclaw spreads to better support the weight. Similarly, the odd-looking crook of the hind leg allows a Moose to pull the leg straight up, more easily releasing it from deep, sucking mud.

 

Bull Moose lose their antlers anytime between December and March. Most of the Moose drop them in January. Immature bulls may not shed their antlers for the winter but retain them until the following spring. Female Moose do not have antlers.

 

A new set of antlers begin to grow the following spring, nourished by the covering of furry skin known as velvet. They take three to five months to develop fully – the velvet is then scraped and rubbed off against bushes and branches. The antlers are then ready for battle. Generally, each set of antlers will be larger than the one before.

 

Birds, carnivores, and rodents eat dropped antlers as they are full of protein and Moose themselves will eat antler velvet for the nutrients.

 

Take note—cow Moose with young can be particularly dangerous.

I'm trying to enter a contest for the Cincinnati Zoo and can only use photos taken from June 29th to July 21st of 2008 so I'm limited on which pics I can enter. I'd go back to the zoo and get more pictures but its so hot here and I don't think I could handle the heat and smog. I would imagine the animals feel the same way and will be really taking it easy. It's a shame that they don't let you use pics from times when its cooler because your more apt to get better photos because the animals are more active. Oh well! Have a wonderful day everyone!

Always on the hunt for a good photo, i found this beauty and couldn't resist capturing the moment. Fortunately, she wasn't angry with me for simply taking her picture and allowed me to share these two images.

 

She may look a little bit serious on this picture, but it turned out that she seems to be a really nice person. I would not deny to make another shooting with her.

This handsome toucanet is not shy at all! it allowed us to get pretty close and we were able to shoot it with short telephoto lenses!

This and many other striking birds found only in the neotropics awaits for us!

Looks a bit like old derelict castle walls, eh? Bell Canyon falls, from early October. In Spring the falls are like a geyser, but this time of year they are very subdued, without the feed from snow melt.

 

This day was overcast, with occasional breaks allowing beams of light through; you can see a couple of patches on the lower stretch of that rock face just right of center. This vantage point is heavily treed, to further darken the mood.
