I've been fortunate to photograph Fallow Deer fighting on a number of occasions over the years and it's great to watch. I find they seem far more eager to do battle with each other than Red Deer, presumably there is less risk of serious injury.
So I was pleased to catch these two bucks doing battle yesterday morning.
The old water tower in Düsseldorf-Heerdt was built in 1892 in the "castle style" and shows elements of late historicist Wilhelminian splendor architecture. It is a listed building and is today surrounded by a modern industrial hall. ---

“I will hurt you for this. I don't know how yet, but give me time. A day will come when you think yourself safe and happy, and suddenly your joy will turn to ashes in your mouth, and you'll know the debt is paid.”
― George R.R. Martin, A Clash of Kings

Thanks to David for modeling!
Two weather fronts clash on our last day at Shenandoah, giving the landscape quite a glow. I haven't seen this since a trip to Great Smoky a couple of years back. Shenandoah is quite a gem.
Sitting here isolating listening to Clash albums.
What is everybody else listening to in these times?
U735, with IC Heritage painted ET44AC #3008 on the point, blasts past a relic tied down in the siding at Ryley Alberta. The caboose was on the end of a welded rail train, and I was hoping to get a wider angle shot of the meet but the dreaded "Card full" alarm on the DSLE put a stop to that

An early autumn snowfall in the higher elevations of Mullan Pass surrounds Montana Rail Link’s Austin Creek Trestle at Skyline, Montana, on October 11, 1997. Lower elevations toward Helena received rain, but a frosting of snow flocks the trees up on the pass, creating an unusual look to the scenery. A westbound BNSF freight train is grinding up the grade with an A-B-A set of Cascade green Burlington Northern power—EMD SD40-2s Nos. 7070 and 7028 sandwiching GE B30-7A booster No. 4107.
A clash of green one and a red one. Who's gonna get it? I hope both, but the red one seems to suffer from this dreadful weather here in Europe. The clash of colors is actually the clash for water.
Summer rains are absolutely wonderful. To me anyways. I love hearing the sounds of the rain on my windows mixed with the sudden clashes of thunder. The weather gets cooler, and then it gets sweltering again.
Two massive Elephant Seal bulls (each weighing 3,000 LBS plus) battle for dominance on a California beach. This fight lasted for several minutes…a rarity for this time of year. Clashes like this take place frequently in November and December as bulls endeavor to establish their turf and collect their harems. By January, most fights are short scuffles, so this lengthy encounter was uncommon.
A few weeks back, James Page and I conducted a brief discussion on posting images that capture a special or important moment but are less than technically perfect. This is one of those images. It was taken handheld from a car window during a heavy drizzle while trying to shoot through the gaps in some roadside fencing. So it’s grainy and funky looking but the moment deserved a post.
