Besides the patterns of the reflections, I was also struck by this intersection of the colors off this shallow stream.

WC SD40-2 6002 arrives South Itasca, WI back on October 4, 2003. Still could find cool WC power around the Twin Ports on some of the secondary CN trains and locals/transfer jobs, besides still some ore trains. Can't remember what train this was, but here they cross County Z with a pair of WC SDs on the point.
Besides his treasure hunting busines, Nathan Drake assists Santa during the holiday season. On his trip Nathan experiences a Déjà-vu...
I built this creation for Ethan (Uncharted Fabrications) as part of the RebelLUG Secret Santa.
Besides animal photos, I love photographing our grandchildren.
What joy they have brought to our lives!
Besides its copper output (anodes and cathodes) the Aurubis Pirdop factory is also a large producer of sulphuric acid. Most of it is exported via the ports of Varna and Burgas but there are also some local customers like Interkapa Greece which has about one train of acid from Pirdop monthly.
And here it is southbound near Blagoevgrad hauled by the retro star of BDZ Cargo Dupnitsa - locomotive 42 184
Besides all of my Ecuador pics left to sort through I have plenty of Brazil images from last Summer to edit. Here are some from a very memorable evening.
This beautiful cat is an Ocelot. The ocelot (Leopardus pardalis) is a medium-sized spotted wild cat that reaches 40–50 cm (16–20 in) at the shoulders and weighs between 7 and 15.5 kg (15 and 34 lb) on average. It is native to the southwestern United States, Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean islands of Trinidad and Margarita. Carl Linnaeus scientifically described it in 1758. Two subspecies are recognized.

Besides being cuddly and cute, they offer unconditional love, reassurance, security and companionship. Many adults still have fond memories of their own teddy bears they loved as children.
Teddy bears have a depth of character that other toys don't have, and in playing with one a child brings it to life. The bear helps to stimulate and develop their imagination. “Teddy bears encourage this type of imaginative play by their very nature, in a way a gadget or electronic toy can't.”
so besides color, the other thing i love is texture. i have been collecting these assorted candlesticks and putting them in my artificial fireplace for a couple years now. i got an awesome mantle/fireplace frame-thing from a garage sale and keep filling it w/ texutre-y white candle-sticks and red candles. i love it!!
Besides the difference in color between this and #1, there is also the difference in aperture. Here, f 5.6. There, f 2.8. There is more clarity and detail in the flower in this pic and more going on in the background. Not necessarily a bad thing. I am thinking of replacing #1 with a more vivid version. I didn't realize how dull it looks until I processed a couple of more pics. The only thing stopping me are the comments and faves it has received. So, will probably just post the second version separately.
Besides the black legs, look at the length of those antennae! This female has a striking scimitar-shaped ovipositor that's used to lay eggs in straight rows along a plant stem.
Besides the fantastic cover this album is remarkable for the first album appearance of The Wailers (Bob Marley, Peter Tosh, and Bunny Wailer).
Besides great view of mount #Olympus (flic.kr/p/qyeaqn), visiting Panteleimonas village offered a great opportunity to shoot Leptokaria from above!
Besides some minor variations of the R2-D2 (Sail Barge tray, antlers, etc R2-D2) here is the complete collection of the astromech droids that were officially released by Lego. Unfortunately R2-KT will not be in this collection, as seen in this LLCA Star Wars Days 2016 event.
I wish the 4th row droids were actually assigned names. If you know what they should be named, feel free to post in the comments and why you think so. I'll try to track them down as well.
The festive droids were just added for fun. I will end up adding the raindeer antlers R2-D2 and the Sail Barge R2-D2 at some point, but they should be very similar to the ones already in the first row.
No doubt, more droids will be produced and this display will grow bigger.
Did I miss anything? Let me know.
A nice foggy and cold morning. Beautiful lanes and perfect light. Although I lost all dexterity in my hands, I was quite happy to be out shooting.
Frustration with the process already set in during the morning though.
The last year or so I have been gravitating towards taking panoramas and as a result I have to shoot so many images to get a shot (this one is 7 shots across I believe and each one is an HDR of 7 or 9). I spend days waiting for my computer to be done with the next bit.
Besides that, it is quite hard to compose a stitched panorama accurately and fill the frame completely. You kind of have to shoot from the angle you want and then hope the computer doesn't warp the pano too bad, or your composition is messed up and you have to crop it differently.
I wanted to keep my options open and decided on digital a year ago, but I'm now thinking of buying a Shen Hao 6x17 camera and see if my dark room skills aren't too rusty. I can shoot 4x5 on the side if I want to keep a more conventional aspect ratio. The lenses for the 6x17 are large format anyway.
I hope that way I can focus on composition and lighting more, instead of the technical aspect of needing enough frames to have enough quality.
Sorry for the rant, I'll keep you posted.

Besides all the amazing waterfalls, one of the things that stands out about Iceland is all the incredible little churches. While some of them carry a common look of white and red, they all have their own uniqueness to them. We found this one just randomly and the way the iron red gate was slightly left open stood out to me... As if it was inviting people in.
. . . Besides all of the other migrating birds which make it into our yards and feeders, the Hummingbirds are so special! It seems like they are really "thirsty" or hungry, depending on how you see it.
Have a great week Facebook, Flickr, and 500px friends!
Besides bouquet and sagenite there is also some very interesting fortification agates to be found around the Tapado area, particularly just passed the bouquet agate beds. Strange inclusions can often be found in some of these nodules.

I love these two. They are my favorite couple :) [besides jemi and nelena]
Oh yeah, also, they are really gorgeous. I totally hate her (not really but you know what I mean).

I wanted to try something new besides WW2 and here is the result ^^ Hope you like it. Comments are always appreciated.
Btw the car is inspired by Intense Potato and some others probably too ;)
I recently got this Brickarms Ak Apoc OM. I found it pretty interesting that mine has 4 colours instead of 3. For some reason the magazine is some kind of black-gunmetal swirl. Would be great if someone could tell me if that is common or something special. Thanks! ;-)
besides, a tree was growing through the truck bed. Found while wandering through a small town in California gold country.
The Northern Plains' TRF Turn interchanges cars in the Thief River Falls yard besides the local co-op elevator with a pair of former UP SD40 tunnel motors representing the Northern Plains Railroad's "Mohall Railroad Inc." branding.
Besides the grand views and iconic spots to capture, there are little detail areas also. Usually that's during the fall, but today this mix of patterns and green moss caught my eye.
Post: Luminar 3 and Lightroom 5 for basic setup. Final crop is a 5X7 ratio.
Besides framing the mountains, I also attempted to compose some landscapes on the go. The snow covered trees and the oblique angle of the sun made everything seem so beautiful. Then, just as the sun was going down and the snow was glinting orange, the T3 jammed up, bringing an end to my photography for the day. I've since been able to fix it, so I guess it was just the low temperatures taking their toll.
After going out to visit the snow, little did I know that it was soon going to come and visit us...
Committed to expired Kodak Portra 160 NC using a Konica Autoreflex T3 and 28 mm f3.5 lens. Developed using a C-41 kit from Ars-Imago and scanned using an Epson V850 using Silverfast. Positive conversion, colour and levels done with Negative Lab Pro.
Besides wonderful exhibits, the museum is noted as an Important Kyoto Cultural Property that started life in 1820 as a samurai villa of the Kanzaki family. The building still features its dignified shoin-zukuri architecture, making a visit an artistic and architectural treat.
besides snowstorms...

Besides being fed by springs Mill Pond is also supplied by a larger lake about 3/4 miles upstream. This is the marsh between that lake and Mill Pond. Besides providing great habitat for many animal species this marsh acts as a giant filter to absorb many chemicals that might have been washed in from farming or lawn fertilizing. I was standing on the dike between the marsh and Mill Pond when I took this. Two large culverts flow into the pond through the dike. This is 2 exposures blended in Photomatix that were taken just after the sun had set and the mist began to rise over the marsh. One of my favorite times of the day. Weezer is behind me of course. :)
The hardest operation besides the C&BL in Johnstown to catch moving by far has to be the RJ Corman after the crash of the domestic coal market when railfanning the NS West Slope.
With the said crash of the domestic coal market, RJ Corman's Clearfield cluster saw a drastic drop in traffic. Which in return warranted power being sent off system and redistributed to other needing RJ Corman Properties.
On the positive side, Clymer has managed to be reopened in recent month's but traffic to the mine is still scarce with a train loading once or twice a month. Besides this, there is only a few active freight businesses that are served throughout the system along with unit grain trains for an ethanol plant at Clearfield.
Monday morning I got lucky and stumbled into a NS 56K grain train being picked up by the RJ Corman with 3 SD40-2's. The train is seen here climbing up the grade at Munster, PA on the Cresson Sub destined to an ethanol plant at Clearfield, PA.
My intentions were to chase the train the whole length of the railroad to Clearfield, but that wasn't meant to be due to my cars check engine and 4WD lights coming on. The roads were not very good at all, and I was already 2 hours from home.
As much as I wanted to push on anyways, I was forced to turn back for home and play it safe. Last thing I needed was no 4WD on snow covered icy roads and have my engine shit out over 2 hours from home. Better luck for next time I guess.
this tractor actually belonged to matt as a kid...
last time we were in ohio...
matt grabbed it from the basement at his parent's house
and we brought it home and cleaned it up for munki...
she loves it.
besides...it has a trailer...
and it can hold an amazingly large number of her schleich horses =)

ok so besides working on my site and working on my writings I've also taken up a new hobby which is gardening...and i love it soooo much!! It's the first time i've ever had a garden and i swear it's changed my life..gardening brings me such peace...i get overly excited whenever i see a new seedling sprouting up out of the soil...i've actually become attached to them...a couple of weeks ago i had some other seedlings but i put them into the sun thinking they would like it but instead they died and to be honest it made me very upset:-( but i'm learning and now i have very many happy little seedlings:-)
hope you are all wonderful:-) much love to you all.

Besides being a bright white bird with deep black wings, the White Woodpecker has a distinctive, small bright yellow eye patch.
This bird is particularly beneficial for citrus plantations because it consumes the irapuá bee, Trigona spinipes, a pest of citrus growers.
Besides the rose-ringed parakeet (Psittacula krameri) this bigger but similar species of parakeets has become resident in Cologne for some years now. Their numbers seem to increase and they can be found in parks and cemetries quiet easy.
Besides my addiction of B&W photo lately, I'm more & more leaning towards panorama crop too! I think it gives the photo a different, yet unique, perspective than the rectangular format . I might try some multi-photo stitch real panorama shots some day......
