After 23 hours trip from Donghae, South Korea, the ferry was reaching Vladivostok. Cloudy but I love the atmosphere of the harbor.

The shower that was threatening Bunmahon beach for awhile was now fast approaching, even though the sun was still shining brightly which only emphasised the darkness of the approaching rain.

66760 is seen approaching Pencoed crossing. An Arriva single car DMU headed in the opposite direction entered into the next frame so I couldn't get it further over the crossing, but I think it works this way anyway. 6V32 09:40 Grain Thamesport GB Railfreight to Margam Terminal Complex

A loaded pellet train on approach to Proctor yard with a heavily frosted landscape.

I went outside to get setup for an attempt at astrophotography. Before the sun was fully down the clouds had moved in and the moon was lightin' it up.

This was all that ended up happening that night.

Seen on a lesser shot area of the B&P Mainline, B&P SIRI-30 rumbles south past the Mt Jewett Approach Signal, deep in the woods of PA.

Manor zoo park in Pembrokeshire has two red Pandas - Betty and Barney. They have been brought together in the hope they may mate - they certainly like each other!

 

I had been warned not to get too close to the Pandas so I didn't freak them out.

 

However, they were both so very interested in what I was doing, I have many blurry images of Red Panda noses as they approached too close for my camera to cope!

 

Barney (in this image) seemed to be a particular Pentax fan...!!

I am again converting archive film camera images to digital....I will be posting these images for awhile. This image is from the Indian Beach area on the North Oregon coast.

Mount Ruapehu, is the largest active volcano in New Zealand, it is the highest point on the North Island and has three major peaks.

The North Island's major ski resorts and only glaciers are on its slopes.

Many people think of Alcatraz as America's most notorious prison, which it was for 30 years of its 150+ years as an inhabited island. Its Civil War-era buildings, cannons, and subterranean rooms give insight into the 19th century when the Island served as both a harbor defense fort and a military prison. Reminders of the American Indian Occupation, which began in 1969 and ended in 1971, remains etched on “The Rock”, recognizing an important milestone in the American Indian rights movement. It is also an nesting site for snowy egrets, black crowned night herons, Brandt cormorants, pigeon guillemots, and Western gulls.

 

We went on a beautiful May morning for a tour of the magnificent gardens.

 

I am having computer problems and will be on and off for a few days. I hope to catch up with everyone over the weekend.

 

Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

My original description was "They meet up in Autumn, and agree to marry in Winter 😘"

 

Then Richard Nagy commented:

"Eh... they both are males, do you know that?"

 

Oh, I didn't know that until he said. But they still have a chance if same-sex marriage is legalized in their community. 😀

 

So, I changed the previous title "Love Approach"

 

That's very interesting. Thank him for telling that.
