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.

After the Equinoxial gales the buckets all filled up and the leaves are turning

Bee flies are small- to medium-sized flies of the family Bombyliidae, many of which resemble bees in appearance and behavior. This mimicry provides bee flies with some measure of protection against predators that have learned to avoid the sting of true bees. A bee fly has a stout, hairy body and long proboscis. In many species the body and wings are strikingly marked in yellow and brown. Most are very swift fliers and buzz loudly like a bee if caught in a net. They seek heat and are often found flying close to the ground in dry, sandy regions. The adults feed on nectar and hover above flowers like bees. The larvae feed on larvae or pupae of other insects; they are beneficial as parasites of harmful species. Beelike flies are also found in other families. The syrphid flies (family Syrphidae), also called hover flies and flower flies, are a large, cosmopolitan group of beelike and wasplike flies. Many syrphid flies bear a very close resemblance to a particular bee or wasp species. Many of the robber flies (family Asilidae) resemble bumblebees. All of these are true flies; they are classified in the phylum Arthropoda , class Insecta, order Diptera.

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!

My son, happily playing in a bucket. What a goof...

This is the side of a gigantic excavator bucket near the front edge. I have no idea why the welds have been added, unless they somehow increase the strenth of the bucket.
Winter bucket
Overnight, in the bucket,
the cement-marked, grime-stained black bucket
catching shed roof rain,
a magical garden has grown, a frosty forest
sending feathered fingers reaching down from the rim,
hugging the sides where the water is coldest.
The ice is fragile, melting almost instantly
even in the shade on this winter morning,
takes on weird and wondrous forms,
the edges sharp and crisp,
catching colour from its surroundings,
reflecting the low solsticial sun.
Here are spruce tree look-alikes, there jagged icicles,
with frilled geometric shapes, and ridge after ridge
of sculptured landscapes, Antarctica in miniature,
in mauves and jade and indigo.
Minutes later, the blades are blunted, the ice invisibly
melting, the fleeting magic over.
I clear broken shards from the bucket surface,
my hands stinging painfully from the cold,
and await tomorrow’s jewelled hoard.

Solitude, with a bucket. A stranger in the space between two buildings finds a moment to reflect. Austin, Texas.
As so often happens, my original idea for this Iron Photographer gig failed. But while I was gathering the components for the planned photo, the cat began making hacking sounds, leading me to assume she was going to cough up a hairball on the perpetually unmade bed in the den (which is perpetually unmade because the cat has decided to take up residence under the blankets for the winter). So I went in to check on her, she stopped hacking, and became immediately curious about the bucket. So I grabbed my cellphone to shoot a photo, at which point she became immediately uninterested in the bucket.
Even so, this turned out better than my planned Iron Photographer photo.
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.

Human beings will line up for miles to buy a bucket of catastrophes, but don't try selling sunshine and light - you'll go broke.

New Hampshire Northcoast train D8 is rumbling South toward Dover behind long term FURX leaser 5509. I was bummed at first, but I've always admired how nice this shot was and I still got it! This was a bucket list shot for me, and as happy as I am with the lighting, I'll gladly come back and try again for matching green.

This is a bucket from Marion 7400 excavator. Built in United States in 1950's and this particular machine was bought to Finland in 1960's. The whole machine weighted over 600 tons and length of the barrier was around 63 meters, so it was quite huge machine at it's time. This bucket alone could haul 10 cubic meters of soil at a time. It has now been scrapped a long time ago, only the bucket and a small sign remain to remind of this giant.

From the National Zoo webpage: “Mei Xiang gave birth to a male cub on August 22, 2015. DNA results concluded that Tian Tian is the father. He was named on September 25, 2015 by the First Lady of the United States and the First Lady of the People's Republic of China.”

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 💅 💄

It's been raining since this morning and going through the storage in search of possible pieces for the event next month. Opened this blue bucket that haven't been touched for a while and immediately got a build in mind that most of these pieces can be used for.
Though in hindsight it has nothing to do with the event but you just can't stop the build when the idea/concept is still very fresh...

We had extra strings of christmas lights. I put them in a metal bucket that sits on a patio table.

I am surprised with how much I actually like this! It's hard to see with the lighting but I did add some silver/grey markings to the helmet. I really like this fig and I reckon the torso could be a good one to use on Chopper or even just an entirely new droid.
Both Roscoe and Filozinha love to drink water from the bucket so I just leave it there with fresh water.
Just wondering if the goats, ducks and Gummies from 2-Dog-Farm's will show up in the cats' bucket!
Test model for a large waterwheel thing using 30275 catapult bucket. The central gear provides a cross axle at the center and locks in 4 of the 16 arms. The remaining arms are held in place with part packing, which does put a load on some clips. I don't currently have enough buckets to test this in-hand.
