Standing on top of a cliff and shooting the Green Bridge in Wales, reminded me that this is the decade where so many of us finally awoke to realise that climate change is here.
I hope that part of the outcome of the US presidential election will bring a window of opportunity to change matters for the better.
Rejoining the Paris climate accord would be an encouraging first step in the right direction.

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
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!

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.

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.

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.
changed the html and gave it a new face, laced backgrounds - just go and see whats new?! nanascherries.blogspot.de/
The only thing does not change is change itself… It is indispensable… Realise the never ending transformation in nature…See the LIFE in it… BeNowMeHere, Lausanne, Switzerland, 2015 via 500px ift.tt/1j3cEeV
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.

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 !
Three days after Christmas 1972, Santa Fe F45 5927 on a westbound freight stops at Seligman, Arizona, for a crew change during a brief snow squall. Photo by Joe McMillan.
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.
It is not finished yet. Weatheroldman who change the time and the four seasons. I hope I`ll finished them very soon. (2x4m) Every season has its fairy. I use small brushes for painting, that`s why my time for working last so long.
Mos Vreme si cele patru anotimpuri. Peretele are aici aproape 2m inaltime si o lungime de 4 m. Lucrez zilnic dupa programul de gradinita vreo trei ore. La anotimpul iarna sunt doar cateva ramurele de brad si fundite pictate deocamdata. Urmeaza si celelalte elemente.La celelalte anotimpuri mai am cateva elemente de completat si apoi de realizat contururile, elementul esential. Folosesc pensule foarte mici, inguste si de aceea timpul de lucru se mareste. :))
A quick stop at Walmart, well could have been quicker, but decided to take pictures of the newest changes nearby.
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! ❤️❤️❤️
Things have changed a wee bit since 1983. The Newmarket Sub is now an overpass for GO service, and a 4th track has been added to give 2 Mac Yard bypass tracks. The world has encroached a little as well. 5 GP40-2's have the Temagami Or Train in hand as they head for a crew change at Jane St.

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!
Normally, BNSF's Longmont Switch power has been a pair of SD70MACs. However, the crew was notified by the trainmaster to swap power with the Buck Local as the Buck Local needed their SD70MACs to bring cars up from Denver later in the day. So for one day, ex-Burlington Northern GP39-2 No. 2700 and BNSF GP39-3 No. 2618 can be seen powering the Longmont Switch north up Atwood Street in Longmont, Colorado on February 18, 2021
There is actually an old abandoned building hiding behind this wall of multicolored vines. Mother Nature decided some exterior decorating was called for and she pulled out all the stops this time !

Hi, I am the genetic basis of complex human behaviour, Corban.
Welcome one and all to the magnificent mysterious and often fantastical tour of the mind belonging to me... Today I am wanting to talk a little about change, and as this is a place for me to talk about, what ever I want... because it is my blog, and not yours... this is what we will be rambling around this afternoon.
I have realized recently that no matter how much you may want to please other people, eventually changing who you are will leave you miserable and ultimately hurt other people...Find the full rambles and credits @ Corbans Cabinet of Curiosities
