No Fishing Tuesday, It's looking better today....I tried visiting your streams, but the connecction is so slow up here my patience wears pretty thin.
Yet another in what feels like a steady stream of cherry-red SD70ACUs, (not that I'm complaining!) CP 7037 in this case, leads an SD60 westward on the "Cut-Off" through downtown Milwaukee with a junk freight bypassing Muskego Yard. In what should be a few years, this line will be bereft of almost all freight traffic, as CP constructs a new double-track main through Muskego Yard itself, reducing conflicts with Amtrak traffic on the "Cut-Off".
This is another shot with the 200-500 combined with the Raynox close up lens. This little sweat bee is what drew me to the dandelion in the first place. And, by the way, still uncropped without vignetting!
A rear feather view of a Welcome Swallow from last week - hope you like it!
Thanks for any comments, views or favorites - much appreciated!!
Have a wonderful day....
No, it is not Mars, but Elgol, Skye. You don't often get beautiful sunsets here, but it always seems to deliver a mystical appeal, with constant changing light and colour.
A view of a 1½-inch washer with severe etching and scarring and its surreal reflection in water. The frame represents a span of 1½-inches across.
I found this washer on the ground while out-and-about and was taken by all the scarring and etching it had endured; it looked as though it had traveled a thousand light years from another world.
Strobist info:
The scene was illuminated by two Nikon SB900 speedlights and a red LED flashlight. The speedlights were positioned at 8- and 4-o'clock, one foot above and two feet away from the washer. They were fired in Manual mode @ 1⁄16 power through Neewer 24" x 24" soft boxes.
The red LED was used to illuminate the background and for rim light and exposed for 1.6 s. A warm overhead room light contributed to the gold etching highlights within the washer and the orange hue to the red LED.
The SB900s were triggered by three PocketWizard Plus X flash triggers.
Lens: Tokina AT - X M100 AF PRO D(AF 100mm f / 2.8 Macro).
I told you the thing did not look safe, but no,no, the adventure queen had to get on and tell me to pull the lever. It clanked and groaned and started around, and then with a jolt and a bang that nearly tossed you in the water...dead.
"Fix it!" you said, as if I knew anything at all about the mechanics of carnivals. "Climb down." "In this dress?" I started to reply and thought the better of it.
I found a soda machine that was still working, and tossed you a Coke. You sneered at it, "Coke, really?" As if there might be a choice in this place. "And it's warm!"
I sat don on the bottom gondola, opened a warm Coke, and settled in to wait for someone smarter than me to amble by and get us out of this mess.
And so we waited, at Dya's.
