It's really interesting to see the fog roll in. Everything changes so quickly. Here the fog is swirling in around the Deer Isle-Sedgwick Bridge crossing Eggemoggin Reach, Maine.

Winnebago County - Iowa
This is how the storm looked earlier in the afternoon before reaching our area. It's building in the northwest, moving up ever so quietly, not making a sound. It's almost predatory in it's silent approach.

IPictures from sitting at the end of the runway at Davis-Monthan AFB waiting for a couple 0f Osan A-10s to land
Brighton Road, Worthing finds 10954 making its way along the coast. The garage (sorry service station) on the left had a Costa Coffee attached, a useful way to dodge a stray E300 which was between the bus I alighted and this ! 9.12.21.
Flying east to west across Los Angeles, California and about to land at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). This is Interstate 110 crossing Interstate 105.

Cruise ship produces a small wake as it edges slowly toward a lock gate (to right of image) past a weir on the Douro River. Aside from this intrusion the water is like a mill pond. Note the rocky terrain on banks of the river.
Having run around at the end of the heritage line near the Rylestone branch 37294 approaches Embsay station
158723 approaches the station at Garve on the 12th of September 2022. The train is the 17:54 Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh.
Amazing light over the ocean at the approach of São Jorge, the Island from the Azores Archipelago, famous about his fajãs
The island is volcanic in character with steep cliffs running down to the sea. The fajãs are small areas of flat land by the sea caused by the collapse of cliffs. The fajãs are fertile and used for growing many plants including yams, maize and vegetables. It is possible to grow coffee, vineyards, tropical fruits and dragon trees in some of them.
From a distance it doesn't look that impressive, but wait till you see the interior. A mile downstream from Vasey's Paradise, Redwall Cavern is a river-meander cave in Marble Canyon that's a must-see on any raft trip.
From Tillicoultry to Alloa the line was double track as can be seen here by the width of the bridges.
A staple of Carl Franz trips is to have a runby with photographers (safely positioned) inside the 900 - foot long Brush Tunnel, getting everybody FILTHY in the process. It's a lot of fun - once. Here the 734 is approaching.
The last rays of sun catch NR56, NR111 and NR42 as they approach Snowtown with 5MP5 on 20th April 2018.
This particular Monday afternoon, the wind was really blowing out on the plains. Most of the day, the winds were at least 30 MPH sustained, and that number often got up to 40-50 MPH. Fortunately, it wasn't too cold, but the wind was a bit of a challenge. Evidence of the wind is quite clear in this shot of this NKCR manifest pulling into the east end of Holyoke (pronounced "hole-ee-oak"). A long piece of plastic wrap got stuck on the coupler of OMLX 419, and it is blowing wildly in the wind.

Suffolk, VA - 31 MAR 2021
Photo (capture of a single video frame from 4K video at 30 fps) from above my back yard looking west at 6:41pm EDT as the storm was approaching.
I received nearly 3/4-inch of rain in about 1 hour.
As the storm continued to intensify, some areas downwind of me received over 2 inches of rain.
A Coalie heading back to the mine, seen threading the S-curves as it approaches the passing siding at the small town of Kingsthorpe.
Approaching Columbus - Fall River Road at 1900. This is a location I'd previously noticed in passing on Google Maps, but never explored in all my years railfanning this line. The turnoff is easy to miss from westbound WIS-16, sandwiched among the driveways to several trucking businesses. The road snakes between them and past some farm fields before crossing the tracks, with a wide open view for westbounds and no trees or poles to cast annoying shadows! For those who notice such things, it also (as of photo date) still has a pair of relatively older WCH (Western-Cullen-Hayes) gated crossing signals with a mechanical bell that rings through the entire activation sequence (most crossing bells on this CP/ex-SOO/Milwaukee Road line, even before they were nearly all replaced with electronic ones, only ring until the gates fully lower).
Sidenote: This marks my 5,000th Flickr photo!
