You can tell things are cooling off when Q199 runs with a DPU. CN 2285 handles the job at the head end while CN 8964 rolled in the middle. I was told this happens to keep trainline pressure up due to air leakage on long trains.

Belle had to wait for me this morning to find a knit hat and gloves before we could set out on our walk. Brrr. We've had our first frost. The rising steam on the pond at holes five and six was colored by the sun's rays as they peeked above the horizon.
University of Alaska at Fairbanks
The pillars are from two uncovered work lights on campus. The red-orange color is due to the mercury-vapor lamps lighting most of the campus. Those are star trails.

I love long exposures, everything to do with night time, the dark, sunrise and sunset.
I like to take pictures mainly at night , sometimes during the day and in dull and fading light and I will sometimes display the time and date the picture was taken too.
I tend to take pictures of Light trails, Motorway traffic, Street lights, Buildings, Landscapes, Bokeh, Night bokeh and Hexagonal Night Bokeh in England.
All of my pictures are 100% natural and untouched in every way without ever been Photo shopped or altered or messed about with in anyway whatsoever, No multi layered photography, No HDR's and No image manipulation of any kind, all of my pictures look just the way they did when I saw them at the time of taking and I'm VERY PROUD of that.
I don't do any photo processing at all, I don't even own any photo software.
All of my starbursts are all 100% natural without using any filters or anything else, as is all my bokeh, night bokeh and hexagonal night bokeh, its all natural, no funny gimmicks at all.
I don't do anything with my pictures apart from take them and then upload them , 99.99999% of my pictures don't even get cropped , they are all 100% natural and untouched and then uploaded.

I was trying out the insulated Ethel Gloves yesterday while doing a bit of winter gardening. I'm testing them out for them so they can make changes as needed. I figured harvesting my beets in 20 degree weather would be a perfect test.
It would figure that the first time I had an opportunity to photograph Sandhill Cranes, they would be standing on a lawn on the west side of the street when the sun was setting! I could hardly see to tell if the shot was good or not, and though the image came out more noisy than I would've liked, I actually used that to my advantage, using the HDR-like filter in Picnik, which intensified the detail and grain, and then I toned it down with Orton, but stepped it back up with the Cinemascope filter, which adds more brown and sepia tones, and more intentional graining. That way, I could get a little detail on the bird's features, and bring out the wonderful markings of the feathers.
I've only seen these birds a couple of times, both times at work in Deltona, where I couldn't get a decent shot of them. I was amazed at their size; they are by far the largest birds I've photographed, even taller than Great Blue Herons. My friend, Sarah, and I were driving along the river in Edgewater, Florida, when we spotted these beauties on someone's lawn. Usually they would be closer to the water, but with a high of 51 degrees yesterday, and extreme winds coming from the northwest, the poor things, like all the other birds I captured yesterday, were freezing, as was I!
The last three days have been much colder than usual down here. The temps hit in the 20-'s in many areas, and the wind chill was ruthless, making it seem like it was in the teens. When I was out photographing some of the local wildlife, since it was the only time they come in to get away from the cold, I was literally blown to pieces, and it felt below freezing. Most of us like a cool winter, but are not really prepared for below freezing temps. Sarah and I agreed that a low of 50 degrees at night with a high of 73 during the day was perfect. That is not the way things go here, though. It's either very hot most of the year, or we have brutal cold snaps.
The citrus growers were icing down their oranges to protect them, and the ferneries were probably racing to save their cold sensitive plants as well. When you wonder why your orange juice prices or floral bouquets cost more than you'd like to pay, it's because of all the extra money spent to work round the clock to save the plants, sometimes unsuccessfully, which causes shortages. Winters in Florida are difficult times for farmers sometimes.
Anyway, I'm stoked about finally capturing these wonderful birds, even if the shots aren't perfect! Notice how it's standing on one leg? Many of the water birds do that when trying to keep warm. It's like they rotate keeping their legs warm. They will stand like this at other times, too, and it's amazing how incredible their balance is! The cranes were far less skittish than herons and egrets, too. We stopped the car right in front of them and I talked to them to see if they'd calm down and turn their heads the way I wanted them to! I will go back in warmer weather and see if I can capture them a little better.

Belvedere Castle is a folly in Central Park in Manhattan, New York City. It contains exhibit rooms and an observation deck, and since 1919, has housed Central Park’s official weather station.
Belvedere Castle was designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux in 1867–1869. An architectural hybrid of Gothic and Romanesque styles, Vaux's design called for a Manhattan schist and granite structure with a corner tower with conical cap, with the existing lookout over parapet walls between them.[1] Its name comes from belvedere, which means "beautiful view" in Italian.[2]: 162
Belvedere Castle was built as a shell with doors and windows open to the weather. Originally, the main tower had a more medieval design, with a weather antenna on top, but during the castle's 1983 renovation, the tower was restored in a German style with a flag, a weather vane, and an anemometer on top. The two fanciful half-timbered wooden pavilions deteriorated without painting and upkeep and were removed before 1900, but restored in the 1980s.
Starting in 1919, Belvedere Castle housed the New York Meteorological Observatory, which had been taken over by the United States Weather Bureau. The current weather station in Central Park, an Automated Surface Observing System (ASOS), is located immediately south of the castle, though wind equipment is still located on the main tower.
