Yet another crazy shot, going back to the slow speed panning approach, keeping focus on the boat, this time focusing manually. My purpose this time was to freeze the effect of the stroke on the water surface. You can still see the tale-telling shadow of the red oar which just got out of the water. Technically, it was a really lousy dirty stroke: a perfect stroke wouldn't have risen any water.

 

Otra locura de disparo, volviendo a la técnica de barrido a baja velocidad, manteniendo el enfoque sobre el bote, esta vez con enfoque manual. Mi intención esta vez era congelar el efecto de la palada sobre la superficie del agua. Todavía se aprecia la sombra reveladora de la pala roja que acaba de salir. Técnicamente fue una mala palada (saca sucio, diría un remero): una palada perfecta no hubiera levantado agua.

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.

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.

This was the second of three shots I took during sunset at Lone Rock Beach. I chose this spot specifically with the plan to shoot in vertical format, because I liked how the lines in the sand and curve of the beach gave the feeling of leading to Lone Rock. This image was taken a short time before my first post from this shoot, just before the sun had set and the sky was close to peak color.

after overnight stop at Trent Wharf Beckingham.

Checking the wild life out at Kirtlewater and got caught in the thunderstorm,it soon passed over .

I have a large marble collection that includes many types of marbles- from old chinese checker marbles, clay marbles, regular cat's eye marbles and slag glass marbles, but perhaps my favorites are the antique handmade glass swirls from Germany. Many that I have are pockmarked and worn, but I love them just the same! It is possible to have them polished but there is always the danger of one of the chips causing the marble to break.

 

This one was made somewhere between the 1850s and the early 1900s.

 

German Handmade marbles were one of the earliest type of marbles imported to the United States. These remain one of the most popular of collectible marbles worldwide. There are hundreds of color combinations and styles, but most fall into a handful of categories.

CN 2801 leads Q120, as they approach the New Brunswick/Nova Scotia border. Lighting is good for this shot, but I kinda wish it was an hour or so earlier. Oh well.

I took the airport shuttle train when transferring at London Heathrow Airport. Perfect for a motion blur shot.

 

I processed a balanced and a paintery HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged the selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I appreciate and welcome constructive feedback.

Near Hurricane Pass, Grand Teton National Park

On a foggy evening, a late night northbound Bessemer & Lake Erie train has been routed through Kremis interlocking under a starry sky. In a few hours, they would arrive here with a string of empty hopper cars from the mills of Pittsburgh and continue north to the port of Conneaut, OH to be re-loaded with another train load of iron ore to bring south.

The road from Egilsstadir to Myvatn passes a area formed by ash-sprewing volcanoes. The precipitation is quite low in this area, but the efficient draining of the ash makes the area appear as a bone dry desert with almost no vegetation.

 

The mountains in the background are all volcanoes.

A Lehigh Railway turn from Sayre, PA approaches the town of Ulster. The tracks briefly veer away from the Susquehanna River as they near the town. A farmer's field provides a break from the seemingly endless row of trees that obscures the right of way, particularly along the river. This railroad does run through some very scenic territory.

On the third and final day of the Hellismannaleið trail, we approach Landmannalaugar, an area famous for vibrant, multi-coloured hills. Landmannalaugar campsite is hidden behind the old lava flow in the distance.

The strangest skies I've ever seen came and went in an instant over the mountains of New Hampshire.

Surrounded by craggy and arresting rock cliffs, a northbound BNSF freight led by SD70ACe No. 9235 approaches the south switch of Dornick siding in Wyoming’s Wind River Canyon on June 24, 2018.

I love the locations we found for this beautiful couple, among stunning trees away from the sun.

While passing the farms of the western Scotland coastline the ferry from Ullapool to Stornoway confronts a storm approaching from the Outer Hebrides. A few farm houses are still illuminated by the retreating sunshine.
