November clings to the lake’s surface, a brittle silence stretching between water and air. Étang de la Oussade lies like an unblinking eye in the cold grip of the French Pyrenees, a liquid stillness that refuses to surrender to ice. The midday light, thin and pale, filters through moving veils of cloud, catching briefly on the frosted edges of stone before dissolving into shadow. There’s a chill here that doesn’t pierce but settles — a quiet certainty, a whisper of winter held just at bay.
The mountains loom above, shrouded in transient veils of mist. Their flanks are streaked with frost and the bare-boned honesty of stone, half-concealed, half-revealed. The clouds glide through the summits, detached, like thoughts that refuse to be pinned down, reshaping themselves with each passing breath of wind. They dip and rise, unsure whether to embrace the heights or descend into the lake’s cold reflection.
Beneath this trembling mirror, the water seems to hold its own secrets. A school of trout darts along the shore, swift and deliberate, weaving patterns of motion beneath a surface that barely acknowledges them. Their sleek bodies fracture the clarity, creating ripples that fade almost as quickly as they form — fleeting disturbances in a place where time itself seems reluctant to move forward.
This is not a scene of waiting, nor of stillness. It is a conversation — water murmuring to cloud, stone whispering to cold air, fish tracing lines through invisible currents. There is no destination, no climax, only the unfolding of an ever-shifting equilibrium. The lake reflects not just the sky, but the tension of being on the cusp of change, where one element teeters on the edge of becoming another.
In this fragile hour, where the known balances precariously on the edge of the unknown, you sense that the lake is more than a body of water. It is a memory pool — one that holds the fleeting shapes of clouds, the sharp edge of frost, the urgency of fish, the infinite patience of mountains. And in its depths, it keeps something else: a question that cannot be answered, only felt.

Beneath the lake’s trembling reflection and the sky’s quiet unraveling, there lies a doorway — one that leads to more moments where nature reveals its hidden dialogue and the world’s edges blur.

On Saturday 10/3/15 Tom Bunjon and I rode on a Chase Gunnoe Photography photo freight charter on the Durbin & Greenbrier Valley Railroad. Our motive power was a two truck Climax locomotive built for the Moore-Keppel Lumber Company of Ellmore, WV in 1910. The locomotive was acquired by the D&GV Railroad in 2001 and currently serves to power their Durbin Rocket passenger excursion trains out of Durbin, WV.
A724 is starting off the new year with a veritable cornucopia of diverse power. We have a pair of AC44's leading a GP40-2 slug set with an MP15T filling out the consist.
Climax locomotive 1694 hauls the first part of the Commissioners Special photographed just down the track from the site of Landslide between Selby and Menzies Creek. The locomotive only graces Puffing Billy's rails on special occasions / charters and I just so happened to be in the area so it was worth capturing. Saturday 3rd September 2016.
Was out tonight shooting some sunset photos. This was the last one of the evening. The light and color were rapidly fading.
The builder, Keith Mason, used some parts from other engines and using blue prints of a Climax locomotive made the rest himself. Sadly Mr. Mason has passed away, yet his family maintains and runs the railroad on Wednesday evenings
After hours of waiting to be alone, I got the spot to myself, no more red light painting by the other group of people that were ruining my shots (the D810A really doesn't like strong red light, it makes the whole scene get a purple cast)
I waited to have the Milky Way between the two trees. As I shot my first selfie, I ended up being too far to the left so I set up again and this time around a car came by and helped me light up the trees and foreground a bit with their lights. That was not planned just pure luck.
Imagine sitting alone around midnight by some of the oldest trees on Earth, some about 5000 years old even, on a clear night with the Milky Way rising in the sky...Climax! :)

A quartet of former Southern Pacific wood chips cars, now operated by G-P, are on CSX M645-10 taking the siding in Climax.

At this location we detrained and walked across the river on the aptly named "swingy bridge" suspended over the river. The journey was not for the faint of heart or those prone to vertigo.
A723 takes the siding to meet A724 which was too long for the siding. A723 would have to wait for the departure of 724 as the switch at the south end of the siding was covered by 724.
Southeastern Myotis can roost in caves in great numbers. There are two large colonies in Climax Cave. One is in the north section and one in the southern section. The southern colony moves the roost to various parts of the cave depending on the year. This year the colony was over a half mile into the cave. We had to traverse beneath them.
