Amtrak's California Zephyr train #5 tacked on an extra P42 in Denver, reason being a failed motor on the 2nd engine in consist, in order to make it up the 2% grade of Union Pacific's Moffat Subdivision. The train is less than 5 miles out from the 62. mile long Moffat Tunnel as the Continental Divide shines in the mid morning sunlight

NS 41N is the first train to venture out of Portlock yard on the Norfolk sub with the snow on the ground. NS 8070 is are leaders today and begins its journey west seen here at the Gilmerton bridge in Chesapeake, Virginia.

I have started to take some local photography classes at my local community center. I first class was on shutter speed. The key is to learn how shutter speed work. What I found, is that I needed to adjust my ISO settings to get the shutter speed I wanted. These are my photos from this class. Basic stuff, but we all can learn from this.

唐诗中的“柳”

本文来源: 我爱语文[ / ]欢迎光临最大的语文公益网站!---http://www.52yuwen.com/Article/Class1/Class4/200505/5988.html

  

柳,姿态婀娜,摇曳多姿,受到历代文人墨客的青睐,常用来作为抒情言志的对象。唐诗中的咏柳佳作更是不可胜数。其中当数贺知章的《咏柳》诗最为著名:

碧玉妆成一树高,万条垂下绿丝绦。

不知细叶谁裁出,二月春风似剪刀。

 

诗歌一反前人以杨柳的形象形容美人身段苗条的写法,而使杨柳化身为美人“碧玉”而出现,用拟人的手法形象地刻画出杨柳那曼长披拂的枝条、嫩绿的新叶在春风吹拂中的迷人的姿态。

 

在唐朝诗人中,对柳最有感情的当数李尚隐了。在他的诗集中,以“柳”为题的多至十几首。《赠柳》诗描绘春柳风姿:

章台从掩映,郢路更参差。

见说风流极,来当婀娜时。

桥回行欲断,堤远意相随。

忍放花如雪,青楼扑酒旗。

 

“掩映”“参差”写柳色或明或暗、柔条垂拂的繁茂景象,“风流”“婀娜”写柳的体态轻盈,花飞似“雪”则把春柳的繁华写到极致。

 

而《柳》是写秋日之柳:

曾逐东风拂舞筵,乐游春苑断肠天。

如何肯到清秋日,已带斜阳又带蝉。

 

写秋柳,又以春柳作比。春日之柳的繁盛,正反衬出秋日之柳的枯凋;春日愈是繁华得意,愈显出秋日之柳的零落憔悴。

 

同是咏柳,诗人却表现出截然不同的感情:写春柳,突出其对春柳繁华的欣喜之情、爱惜之情;写秋柳,则表现诗人对秋柳稀疏衰落的悲叹之情。

 

咏柳,在唐诗中常被用以赋别。罗隐的《柳》就是运用比兴手法,借助春柳的形象,写暮春晴日长安城外、灞水岸边送别情景的:

灞岸晴来送别频,相偎相倚不胜春。

自家飞絮犹无定,争解垂丝绊路人。

 

在赋别诗中,诗人一般以折柳相赠惜别。如戴叔伦的《堤上柳》:

垂柳万条丝,春来织别离。

行人攀折处,是妾断肠时。

 

施肩吾的《折杨柳》:

伤见路旁杨柳春,一重折尽一重新。

今年还折去年处,不送去年离别人。

 

而雍裕之的《江边柳》则别出新意:

袅袅古堤边,青青一树烟。

若为丝不断,留取系郎船。

 

诗中女主人公不仅没有折柳赠别,倒希望柳丝绵绵不断,以便把情人的船儿系住,永不分离。

另外,白居易的《勤政楼西老柳》用简括的笔触勾勒了一幅“临风立马图”,又是诗人的自画像:

半朽临风树,多情立马人。

开元一支柳,长庆二年春。

 

而唐彦谦的《垂柳》诗又别有寓意:

绊惹春风别有情,世间谁敢斗轻盈。

楚王江畔无端种,饿损纤腰学不成。

 

这首诗不仅写出垂柳的婀娜多姿,别具柔情,而且联想到楚灵王“爱细腰,宫女多饿死”的故事,托物寄兴,讽刺矛头直指皇帝及其为首的封建官僚集团,于柔情中见犀利,于含蓄中露锋芒,堪称“咏柳”诗一绝。

Q249 drops its mixed consist from Curtis Bay Yard (Baltimore) in the yard at Jessup before building its consist of empty autoracks. The trailing unit is a standard cab C40-8.

The Southern Heritage unit crosses the Yellow Breeches on the NS Lurgan Branch (former Conrail, nee Reading).

NS 1800 pulls up to NS Junction with NS 278 and begins to work Portlock yard in South Norfolk, Virginia. Nice to see 1800 after its rinse off.

At Wyomissing Junction, we have a lashup of three units, elephant style, with two BNSF locos trailing.

This loco started life as a standard cab GP-40 but got a new nose to make it into a high-hood GP.

This is the interchange between Norfolk Southern and the Maryland and Delaware Railroad. MDDE 1203 is sitting at the end of this tracking waiting for NS to bring 7 loaded boxcars. Four of them are destined to Solo Cup in Federalsburg, three are headed to K-pac, also in Federalsburg.
