There was a brief downpour today so I took a few images, where I happened to be walking, in quest of backjets. (High speed 1, 15 FPS at 3MP).
Processing note:
Vintage color cast achieved with Analog Efex (Classic Camera 7 preset)

For our 2023 Summer holiday we travelled to a remote group of islands in search for some well-deserved rest, relaxation, and pretty pictures. The first two days on the main island were filled with sunbathing, fighting over the air conditioning button of the car, and exploring the island. One of the sights on our list was a dormant volcano where I was planning to take some abstract images of old lava flows.
Upon our arrival, things looked mysterious with a lot of white steam venting from the ground. According to the locals, this was a normal occurrence, nothing to worry about. After some exploring and photographing, we slowly made our way back to our rental house, had dinner, and turned on the tv. First thing we saw was a live report on the news of an erupting volcano… the very one we visited earlier that day. Realizing this was quite a rare event, we jumped into the car and drove back up the volcano.
Several roads had already been closed off, but fortunately, we managed to reach a viewing platform that offered a good view into the crater. The glowing rivers of lava created a stunning spectacle of vivid orange lines flowing down the crater. For me it was a bucket list item I could unexpectedly check off my list.
This bristlecone forest has been on my bucket list for awhile and we've never taken the time to drive up here. We had a short trip this time and made sure that this was our first stop. I didn't realize that we were going to be at 10,000 feet elevation and that snow would still be on the ground. When I asked about the grove being open in Bishop, they weren't sure if we could make it all the way to the grove, but I'm glad we did.
We had enough time to do one hike before moving on to our next stop for the day. This is an easy one mile hike that has the Mexican Mine as one of its highlights. The cabin and mine used bristlecone trees for the supports from this area. The tree on the left along with a few other young bristlecone trees probably are a result of this harvesting.
The snow capped mountains in the distance are the Sierras. The Inyo National Forest area doesn't get as much precipitation and these trees have adapted to this environment. I was surprised at how huge some of them have grown. The oldest tree found in this grove is over 4,000 years old. It was pretty cool walking among giants thousands of years old.

UP 5500, 7239, and 8064 lead an empty Richmond coal train along the Carquinez Strait east of Port Costa.
This rusty display is south on the Peak-to-Peak highway from the Modoc Mill itself. I searched for this shot in my stream but found nothing so here it is, digging up the past in Nederland at their Museum. They probably found it at Madam Ore's House over on Main. This steam shovel probably saw duty throughout the entire Nederland and Eldora mining districts. Eldora was originally named Eldorado but the U.S.P.O. preferred the active mining camp name be used in California.
Many ores were mined and smelted in the area and needed moving serious amounts of material. One area really valuable ore was tungsten and was thought to be only from the Boulder County area. The Rockies mining craze was the real impetus that launched the agricultural prairie culture.
There was something about the elegant white pillar of this period town house in Titchfield and the ordinary mop and bucket on the flag-stone step beside it which caught my eye..

My wife and I spent a couple days in the Jasper area on our summer vacation this year. In between hiking, shopping and sightseeing, I decided to try my luck to get an evening eastbound at Swan Landing, a true Western Canada bucket list location. It was a great place to crack a beer, relax and wait for a train to come to me. Unique to Canada was this unit train of LPG cars with no buffer car behind the locomotive. Around the curve to the west is the small yard where the Grand Cache subdivision to Grande Prairie joins the mainline and in the distance are the mountains of Jasper National Park.

Initially, I had thought this was a Duesenberg, but now I'm not sure. Shortly, I will replace this image with a higher res version.
UPDATE: I have replaced the originally posted low-res photo with a sharper medium-res photo. I'm guessing it is a Cadillac or a Chryzler, although I have seen Studebakers with similar headlights. Studebaker?

Solitude, with a bucket. A stranger in the space between two buildings finds a moment to reflect. Austin, Texas.
The summer hires were cleaning and sanitizing the buckets we used to haul fish at Lower Monumental Dam. After the buckets were sanitized, they left them out to air dry. I though the pattern was so neat I ran for the camera. Pasco, WA 09JUL09

My original intent for this day was to chase 23M west with the NS 1069 (Virginian HU) on the point. However, by the time I had gotten to Harrisburg, 23M was already half an hour ahead of me. Upset and just looking to kill an hour or so, I decided to head a little further west to Port Royal.
In the back of my mind I knew that the 62V had 8102 leading, but wasn't expecting it to show. Last week I had gotten burned waiting for 62V to come east because it had gotten held up in Altoona due to track work around Antis. After about 20 minutes of waiting, I heard clear as day on the scanner, "62V Clear Mifflin". I couldn't believe it. And now I can proudly say that I can check this shot off my photography bucket list!

We all have our bucket list..
if we look down it and tick off even the most modest results of our dream list - and even our smallest of achievments - our achieved and done list will be rather larger then expected and we may all be a little more content.
IDEAS for use :
- insert a glass jar = pencils/pen holders (or crochet holders etc)
- bills / coupons holder (in the kitchen or on your desk)
- micro-crafts carrier/holder (your *small* crochet/knitting/embroidery WIP)
- cotton balls holder (in the bathroom or on a baby's chagning table)
- jewelry holder (in the bedroom)
- fabric scraps holder (in your sewing space)
- can be used a little basket by little children (carrying soft toys or dolls)
- can be the "wrapping" of other gifts !
I loved the variety of colours in these playtime small buckets for use on the beach. What fun these would be to make sandcastles with! They were on display at local Dollar Store.
This was the other costume I wanted to do for the Halloween shoot. Yeah, yeah played out but it was one of my bucket list items to do. We first tried the blonde look to see how that work followed by the black china cut wig (as previously photographed).
A lot of fun for this outfit shoot. Might do another rendition in the near future 💅 💄
