Heading west approaching Glen Coe beside the Kingshouse Hotel on the A82. I've said this before but if you see this scenery with clear blue skies I think that you are missing something.

 

The mountain in the foreground on the left is Buachaille Etive Mòr, behind it is Buachaille Etive Beag. In the centre but on the north side of the Glen is Aonach Eagach.

 

Yes, I have done some processing but only minor tweaks.

I made my way down to the South Yuba River the other day. While I was driving to the river, clouds were rapidly gathering. By the time I made it to this spot on the river I knew that I wouldn't be staying very long. I grabbed a couple of shots and headed back to my vehicle. Before I left the parking lot it had started to hail then quickly turned to snow. It was an interesting drive back home.

Disappearing sunlight and approaching snow clouds at Curbar Edge.

Approaching the crossing at Rollins, MN, the engineer of a southbound loaded taconite train has opened up the throttle of his three 30+ year-old C40-8's as they begin the last long stretch of upgrade track between here and Highland before the final descent to Two Harbors. Like many railfans, I lamented the arrival of these Dash 8's a few years ago as they ended the long-standing exclusive use of EMD products on these taconite trains on the former DMIR Iron Range Sub. Now, with their replacement widecab GE's waiting in the wings and the construction of a new loop track at Two Harbors that will allow DPU operation well underway, I have to admit that these things look and sound pretty great. I was happy to get a few more shots of them on this trip "up north." Things never seem to stay the same for long.

At the last moments of light before the night approaches here in San Antonio, Texas. Got home a bit late and was able to get this awesome sunset shot. Hope Y'all like it.

I love it when I'm hiding and wait for some roe deer, It is always a magical moment to wait and see if the deer flees or stops and trusts you.

Class 66 No. 66303 (ex DRS acquired by GBRf) heads the 6V75 Dee Marsh – Margam steel train, seen approaching Pandy, near the English/Welsh border, on the Welsh Marches line.

Have a wonderful day, everyone...

UP MBNAS, led by Alton & Southern 2205, rolls towards Shops on the I&M on Springfield, IL, to do some work.

I'm not 100% satisfied with this one, more like 75%.. But still pretty good for never shooting this location before, and the sun angle, etc.

After a great hike up the valley Helgedalen we were approaching one of the glaciers in Hurrungane - the most alpine of the Norwegian mountain areas.

I was getting my fork tails and hairy foots mixed up, but I now think this is the hairy footed flower bee. Please correct my ID if I'm wrong.

The last two weeks passed quickly since the release of MMV's TransMontana ( flic.kr/p/2oShMTV ). The weather was so stormy in those days when I visited the lake Balaton. This one hit with a heavy downpourshortly after its arrival, but before that it provided an amazing sight.

Hibernating Sethi when he heard someone approaching (oops !) and noticed a camera (oh no !). His eyes are always particularly photogenic when he opens them wide like this but I swear that he isn't as traumatized as he usually looks. :)

The WNYP "Slingshot" heads east towards Corry, PA and eventually Falconer, NY on the former Erie. I believe the bridge in the background is the former PRR line that split off from what is now the BPRR, and ran south to Oil City. This was one of the last regularly scheduled runs to Falconer from Meadville as traffic on the WNYP had declined.

 

Train: WNYP ME-1 with WNYP 430 (C430) and WNYP 427 (C430).

A great spot to watch the night approaching. Taken looking down the Rakaia River with the setting sun behind us briefly colouring the sky to the East as everything else around us darkened.

The camp ground at Rakaia Gorge is a great place to spend the night and later to watch the stars, and no-one would complain about this view. Enjoy.

 

Thank you for everyones comments and good wishes after the photo was selected for Explore on 5 August 2022.

Late afternoon storm approaching.

A southbound manifest heads into Troy in the fall of 2013 with a pair of vintage standard-cabs for power. Surprisingly both are still in active service in 2022 as well: 8057 was rebuilt to SD40-3 specs as CSX 4063 in 2015, and the 7595 was sold to Pan Am in 2017.

With a dominating backdrop of Wild Boar Fell in Cumbria, Stanier 8F no. 48151 approaches the summit at Ais Gill whilst working the 'Dalesman' charter on a breezy 22nd May 2018.

Metra 173, the 'Village of Lake Bluff', nears Jefferson Park station on the far northwest side of Chicago with a outbound weekend scoot.

There is growing concern (since 2010) that the volcano on Ischia could erupt in the near future. It is considered more likely for Ischia than for its more famous Italian counterpart, Vesuvius.
