Got out and did a little bird photography today. It was sunny and gorgeous, 53F +/-

 

Hopefully you'll like this more than my little bear cub photo from this morning. :-).

I follow the Moskva

Down to Gorky Park

Listening to the wind of change

An August summer night

Soldiers passing by

Listening to the wind of change

The world is closing in

Did you ever think

That we could be so close, like brothers

The future's in the air

I can feel it everywhere

Blowing with the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)

In the wind of change

Walking down the street

Distant memories

Are buried in the past forever

I follow the Moskva

Down to Gorky Park

Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their dreams)

With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night (the glory night)

Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)

In the wind of change (the wind of change)

The wind of change

Blows straight into the face of time

Like a stormwind that will ring the freedom bell

For peace of mind

Let your balalaika sing

What my guitar wants to say

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (share their dreams)

With you and me (with you and me)

Take me to the magic of the moment

On a glory night

Where the children of tomorrow dream away (dream away)

In the wind of change (in the wind of change)

(Scorpions)

It was strange being alone by Nikulásargjá Þingvellir national park on this wonderful night. All so quiet and the northern light dancing for me alone and showing me their different colours

Time and things change so fast. I had some Poppies blooming in my garden and when I came home around noon today a snapped 8 photos. Wanted to see them right away so I downloaded to my computer and when I viewed them I wasn't happy so I took my camera and went outside to take another few shots. In the 15 minutes it took for me to go from the first 8 photos to a reshoot light, colour and the bloom had changed. Posting this shot to remind me that time changes everything in just a matter of minutes, maybe even faster.

Changes

David Bowie

 

I watch the ripples change their size

But never leave the stream

Of warm impermanence

And so the days float through my eyes

But still the days seem the same

And these children that you spit on

As they try to change their worlds

Are immune to your consultations

They're quite aware of what they're goin' through

 

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Turn and face the strange

Ch-ch-changes

Don't tell them to grow up and out of it

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes

Turn and face the strange

Ch-ch-changes

Where's your shame?

You've left us up to our necks in it

Time may change me

But you can't trace time

  

Went into Kirribilli this morning to shoot the city. Lots of cloud was promised and the gap on the horizon looked even more promising when we arrived an hour before sunrise.

Sure enough, right on que, the sky popped and everything fell into place.

Been a while since I set up for a panoramic image, but this location just screams pano, so that’s what I did.

This is 5 portrait images, stitched to give the attached final image.

Managed to get a part rainbow under the bridge too...

 

Cheers to Paul and Stephane for a great morning out…

 

Hope you like “Changes”

Cheers, Mike

I had to travel to Sudbury for work this week, while there I visited a memorial for the lives lost to overdose/opioid abuse. I was struck by the pictures included on the crosses. Some of these people were so young.

Three diverted liveried 66s head north on the 17:54 Toton to Belmont. EWS liveried with DB branding 66172 leads unbranded EWS liveried 66112 and DB livered 66149 past Slitting Mill crossing and the remains of the old crossing.

 

Ironically 66149 was my previous upload running on the Teesside to Boulby Potash circuit.

Living 10 minutes away from the top of Te Mata Peak, I come here often. The main, structural elements of the view from the peak are always the same. However, the time of day, the season and atmospheric conditions always make it a unique experience. On top of that, my mood when editing the photo also has a lot of influence on the final image.

Changing Seats, Fluffy

 

"Let’s change seats, Fluffy," she says with the seriousness of someone leading her best friend on an adventure. The plane hums beneath her feet, but she walks with quiet determination, dressed in her two-tone pajamas, carrying that giant bear who seems to listen in silence. In that moment, there are no passengers, no noise… just a girl and her faithful companion conquering the skies together." (Sira)

 

Thank you very much Haru!

With all the recent flurry of photos of the final trains to run on this unaltered single track stretch if street running I figured I'd edit up a few more from last summer's pilgrimage since I couldn't make it for the last runs.

 

Here is another look at South Shore train 508 (the railroad was running their weekend schedule on the observed Monday holiday) that left South Bend at 5:45 PM 45 minutes prior to when I took this shot at 5:30 PM. Yes, you can travel through time on the South Shore Line! Are there any other commuter lines in the country where you cross a time zone boundary?

 

Anyway, the standard train of Nippon Sharyo Electric MUs is led by #106, one of the single ended cab units from the 2001 order of 10 similar cars, the newest of the single level fleet most of which date from 1982-1983 though 14 more are a decade newer than that.

 

They have just snaked through the famous s-curve on 11th Street between Lafayette St. and Cedar St. at about MP 33.8 and are climbing the hill toward me at the corner of Spring Street. Dominating the background is abandoned Spanish Revival style circa 1925 First Christian Church building. I framed this scene up intentionally like this to highlight the historic church which has since been demolished to allow for the straightening of this curve in conjunction with the double track project that is underway forever altering this classic scene.

2020.

And the ferns show the multi-shades of change from summer to autumn near St.John's, NL.

Heading home from visiting dad, changing trains in Glasgow's busy Queen Street Station, a pair of the old Intercity 125 trains awaiting their next passengers of the evening. Quick snap with the phone, while changing platforms to catch another train.

The last several days have been ones of significant change in the countryside around our town. Just last week, this bean field was a dark green; this morning, it shows the change of the season as it has yellowed and will soon begin the drying process that will result in harvest next month.

 

Many trees are already showing reds, yellows, and golds as they begin the ever-hastening lurch toward full fall colors.

 

The habits of wildlife are in full change mode as well. Deer are largely absent as they can read in the Star Tribune that bow season starts this Saturday, followed by other opportunities for them to be shot by two-legged pursuers.

 

Waterfowl are doing practice runs for migration as they fly high overhead from one body of water to another. Small songbirds are gorging themselves on seeds and berries as they load up for the trip south.

 

I even noted an old photographer headed to Shalom, our great thrift store, to update his autumn wardrobe, where he will splurge and buy the latest warm fashions for $3 each, which will look an awful lot like his last year's fashion.

 

If you like the change of seasons in Minnesota, this is a good time. If you find yourself dreading the coming winter, I already like you.

on the rainy day through my kitchen window :)

Throughout millennia evil used to hide its own existence as a defense strategy. Now there is a Change:

 

Evil publicly manifests its scheme in broad daylight now, right in front of everyone’s face!

Changement

 

Pendant des millénaires, le mal cachait sa propre existence comme stratégie de défense. Maintenant, il y a un changement :

 

Le mal manifeste publiquement son schéma en plein jour maintenant, juste devant le visage de tout le monde !

I always had the plan to post more shots of the wonderful Iskanderkul in Tajikistan, but it is already three years ago that I finished my trip through central Asia, and how the world has changed since then.

 

Beside this shot www.flickr.com/photos/115540984@N02/49221949713/in/photol..., that I posted a long time ago, there were many more.

 

This image was taken when we left early next morning. The scenery was gorgeous thanks to the light and the haze, and the lake got a wonderful turquoise color.

 

Iskanderkul is situated in the northwest of Tajikistan, in the Fann-mountains. I am not sure if it was named after Alexander the great, the stories are somewhat vague on this matter, but what is sure is that the dacha of the Tajik president is situated at the east end of the lake.

 

We spent two days at this lake, and although this scenery is fantastic it took me a lot of pictures to capture its grandness. Not only the lake but the surrounding mountains are so stunning you don't know where to look all the time. Enjoy!

  

20 September 2019 I came back from my journey over a part of the Silk Road to and through Central Asia. 4 months of traveling through 14 countries (Germany, Austria, Hungary, Romania, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kirgizstan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, Iran) before I flew home from Teheran. An impressive journey in countries that are extremely beautiful, with lovely and welcoming people and diverse cultures and history.

 

Intense traveling with more than 20000 kilometers in our mobile home on sometimes roads that hardly could be called that way. We saw many villages and cities (some wonderful, others very ugly), countries that are transforming from the old Soviet era into something more related to older cultures and the way people live, often funded by oil readily available around the Caspian sea. We saw the amazing mountains south of the Black Sea, the wonderful Caucasus, and the high mountains in the far east close to China with peaks over 7000 meter, and not to forget the (Bulgarian) Alps!

 

We crossed the great steppe of Kazakhstan. a drive of at least 5000 km, the remnants of lake Aral, once one of the biggest lakes of the world, saw a rocket launch from Baikonur (this little part is Russian owned), we crossed many high mountains passes, and drove the breathtaking canyon that comes from the Pamir, beginning at ca 4500 meter, and going down for ca. 400km to an altitude of 1300 meter, driving for 100's of kilometers along the Afghan border.

 

And then the numerous lakes with all sorts of different colors from deep cobalt blue to turquoise, and one rare spectacle in Turkmenistan where a gas crater is burning already for more than 40 years. And finally and certainly not the least to mention an enormous amount of wonderful, hospitable and welcoming people. The woman often dressed in wonderful dresses, and bringing a lot of color in the streets of almost of all countries we visited.

Nice representation of the coming change of season. Summer on the left, autumn on the right. Sylvia Hotel, Vancouver.

Woke up to a white world with closed roads. We had an unusual 8-10 inches of snow in Alabama. A February record.

After setting up on the sunny side of the tracks at Shawsville, I decided to change course as storm clouds built up. This allowed a few of us to shoot the cemetery fence without people in the way.

Continuing with my Positive Flags of the Nations

project with a tribute to climate and in the hope that we take climate change seriously and start to do something about it.

 

The shift to a cleaner energy economy won't happen overnight, and it will require tough choices along the way. But the debate is settled. Climate change is a fact.

Barack Obama

 

In reality, climate change is actually the biggest thing that's going on every single day.

Bill McKibben

 

Climate change is happening, humans are causing it, and I think this is perhaps the most serious environmental issue facing us.

Bill Nye

 

The cost of our success is the exhaustion of natural resources, leading to energy crises, climate change, pollution, and the destruction of our habitat. If you exhaust natural resources, there will be nothing left for your children. If we continue in the same direction, humankind is headed for some frightful ordeals, if not extinction.

Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! ❤️❤️❤️

Spent Saturday morning playing in the rain enjoying some gorgeous waterfalls and looking for fall colors. Wahclella falls is one of my favorites and still impresses me each time I visit. Color is the gorge is not quit at its prime, but beautiful none the less!

 

Happy Monday my friends and thanks for looking!
