Another view of the sunrise at Southwold Pier. It was the silhouetted seagulls that caught my attention here.

Here is another from my brief trip to Colorado last fall. This is Clear Creek Falls. It's about 20-30 miles south of Lake City.

A girl in the supermarket viewing some magazines. While she was viewing the magazines I was taken pictures of her feet and sandals.

Trying out a new very interesting lens loaned to me by a friend recently. The lens is a TTartisan 100mm f2.8 prime that is a copy of an old Meyer Optik Goerlitz Trioplan lens produced in the 50s and 60s, renowned for its bubble bokeh. It’s a lovely lens and at certain distances and with the right subject it can produce the Trioplan magic. Here I’ve used a short extension tube to get in a little tighter but it really does throw the background out very nicely.

A clear and quiet night lingers over the valley on the NS Roanoke District. The only sounds are barking dogs and some occasional rustling in the nearby bushes. The aspect of the signal changes from red to yellow, indicating a lineup for an oncoming train. A few minutes later, the silence of the landscape is broken by the sound of a distant horn. The yellow aspect turns green just before NS train 201 clears the north end of the siding at Solitude. 201's headlights begin to paint the landscape as it rushes around the curve to meet the facing signals of Arcadia. "NS 201 clear Arcadia" is called out over the radio by the conductor. Moments later, the green falls down to a red as 201 zips into the night. The EOTD flashes past, indicating the end of the train, and the silence is soon restored for the sleeping folks of Arcadia, Virginia.

Last week was truly spectacular for northern lights across the northern hemisphere. I missed out on some of the most well organized displays but even these less brilliant aurora were very impressive.

Detail, Ford pickup truck (1940's?) parked in the Miami Design District. Rusty patina preserved with some 'rat rod' combo of waxing, buffing and protective clear coat lacquer spray? Or...?

The small aperture value has created this narrow depth of field, however, the flowers are clear through the glasses :)

i have a fetish for clear platform heels.

This is the westbound that NS 8099, the Southern heritage unit, was waiting for (see previous photos). On my way back home, I saw it had held at Shabbona siding waiting for the 8099 train to clear, in a very slow rolling meet. The BNSF Aurora Sub was so busy in 2014 that the railroad had these kinds of rolling meets down to a science. Even thought I decided to give up my chase of 8099 further west (a decision I still regret), having a faded Santa Fe Warbonnet second unit was a nice consolation prize. And since these old SF Superfleet workhorses are fading away faster than their paint nowadays, this might be the more historical catch.

Kahn has plenty of clearance over the fences at the start of the South Lawson Fire Trail.

A harlequin ladybird, cleared for takeoff!

We spent a weekend at the Black Rock Desert in Nevada to attend Balls XXX, the biggest experimental rocket launch event in the world. The camp is in the middle of a dry lakebed, also called playa, the same place where Burning Man takes place. The playa is big, about 200 sq mi (520 km2). The night sky is very clear, you can see the Milky Way and millions of stars with your bare eyes because there is no light pollution. My rocket buddy Steve Jurvetson poses with a big rocket motor on our comfy chair below the Milky Way. It became a tradition to take the throne along to the desert every year.

 

I processed a balanced and a photographic HDR photo from a JPG exposure, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Wildflowers supplying yummy nectar for happy bees along the Laguna Lake Trail.

CSX P001, the Santa Train deadhead, prepares to knock down North Kermit.

It's forecast to rain: the first rain since some time in February. The weather has been exceptional and even the midges can't believe it. Effie has gone for a cool down in Loch Ailort, in beautiful clear waters.

converted to b/w and cropped. This

version looks a little better than the blue hour version and has some more details.

Today we have low temperatures and a clear atmosphere with none movements of the layers. Normally taking such pictures is nearly impossible, especially in summer.

Also free hand shot and converter was used.

Next time i will leave this 1,4 Sigma converter at home ..... mor lens, more pain.

Optimized with Nikon NX-Studio.

Now I can finally show you some new spring growth in our yard since snow out just 4 days ago. I hope to have my first video clip of our youngest daughter giving her college graduation valedictorian speech from tomorrow to upload for mother's day, so will wait until then to send greetings to you all. The quince is blooming right on time this year and I have another card of that here from another Mother's Day: www.flickr.com/photos/catchesthelight/494752499
