25NC 3533 'Elrein' getting away from her Orange River service stop just ahead of an approaching frontal system with a Kimberley bound freight in August 1991. Cold fronts were a bit of a pain in July / August but they did produce some dramatic skies if you were lucky with the light. Childhood errors......hit the loco right with the grain silo sticking out of it tut tut tut!
The dinosaur feels a certain presences and the ride begins. Ashleigh. June 2010 Birthdays for Erika, Margaret, and Leo.
I've already uploaded a Terragen/Photoshop image depicting a map of a treasure island. This is the island I rendered in Terragen before creating a map of it. After rendering the image I applied some tonemapping to add drama to the scene. The boat and some further colour adjustment and toning was done in Photoshop.
Storm passing over the De Zwaan Windmill. This is the last photo I took before I started running.
The De Zwaan is the only authentic, working Dutch windmill in the United States.
On the next to last day of our Moab workshop a storm front was approaching the area. In this image, I captured the foreground in sunlight with the dark clouds behind.
A quick sidetrip whilst picking up some sandwiches for my lunch on a Friday, saw me park the chucklebus up on Cefn Hirgoed and leg it out with camera, tripod, and filter bag to try to get a couple of shots of a storm approaching Bryncethin from up the valleys.
It was the interplay of some rather angry clouds and some extremely bright light breaking through in areas that caught my eye.
It was a day of extreme contrasts at this stage, as if I turned through 180 degrees I was faced with a blue sky and a glorious bunch of fluffies ...unfortunately the view was not as inspiring as this, although I did get a grab shot before the rain arrived so may play later...

The bottom signal was flashing red which I believe was signifying that they were crossing the Lynndyl sub and heading onto the IPP Industrial Lead. Which is exactly what it did.
the sign says:
welcome to the city of thunder bay
superior by nature
We left a chunk of Maggie's exhaust there. Sorry about that.

It was raining as I drove down the Dan Ryan Expressway, approaching Chicago - the Sears Tower and John Hancock Center are visible (Some of the tallest skyscrapers in the USA, if not the in the world).
I know these types of lunar pictures can be rather uninteresting without any foreground objects or telephoto close ups of craters. However, that is what I like about this picture. The emptiness emphasizes the moon’s isolation. The first thing that popped into my head was NASA’s Apollo Program. Looking at this picture, I get the sensation as if I was an astronaut in a spacecraft making the approach to the moon.
"We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too." - President John F. Kennedy, September 12, 1962, at Rice University, Houston, Texas
