Strung out in the back of a black car
No keys, all I got is my credit cards
And I've been here a million times
Drive fast with The Beatles in the background
Till 'em take the 101 out of this town
I was never one to say goodbye

A group of Burlington Northern E9AM locomotives await a call to serve on Chicago bound commuter rail trains, staged in BN's Aurora, Illinois rail yard.
Beginning in the mid-1970s, 25 Burlington Northern E8As were rebuilt by Morrison-Knudsen in Boise, Idaho. MK upgraded them to E9A standards, and included the installation of EMD 645 power assemblies and head-end power, branding the fleet E9AMs.
These streamliners were some of the last E-series locomotives in active service in North America. All were retired in 1992.
Commuters trudge across the footbridge at Newcastle station on their way to work, disembarking from a class 158 that has just arrived from the west.

The evening rush hour crowd starts to gather at Preston station as a Class 158 DMU waits to leave for Blackpool.

A magpie over The Itchen Bridge. The bridge replaced a chain ferry in 1977 and carries traffic 28 metres (92 feet) above the River Itchen in Southampton, Hampshire, UK. The height is to allow ocean going vessels to pass beneath it. The King Charles III England Coastal Path crosses the bridge.
Every day in Sydney, around 35,000 people use ferries to commute around Sydney Harbour. In this 90 second video I share a few of the sights and sounds on a typical commute into one of Sydney's bays. In my experience, buses, trains and trams cannot compare to the relaxed serenity of a ride on a Sydney ferry. So sit back, relax and let's take a ride on a Sydney ferry. How does it compare to your daily commute?
On Tuesday 14th January 2014, commuters from the 16:42 Leszno-Wolsztyn service head home, alighting at the well patronised WÅ‚oszakowice station. Ol49 Class 2-6-2 No.49-59 is brewing up ready to make a brisk departure into the night on this tightly-timed, everyday steam-hauled commuter service. Amazingly, scenes such as this will still be possible to witness in 2020, but this may well be the last year for such regular services.

As a lover of traffic trails I've always wanted to capture a shot like this. My local topgraphy sadly falls short of making it a reality.
Finding myself in Wales I planned to head for a location that could deliver. Whilst en route I had traversed the road you see below. Reaching the top and with twilight rapidly approaching it left me with a tough decision. Stop here in moody light but have to hunt for a vantage point; or press on with the journey, miss the light but end up at a known vista with a classic hairpin view.
I held on.
Scrambling blindly towards the edge of a *very* steep drop, the route below came into clear view. I was glad I'd made the right choice :)
Single continuous exposure. Sony A7s w/ Nikon 35mm at f/10 ish (manually adjusted). 3-stop soft grad for sky.

for some a world icon, for others a daily commute perhaps to work or home.
golden gate bridge in fog
11/17
this morning while driving to a late appointment, i drove through the park and saw the most breathtaking forest with what must have been about 180 degrees worth of rays breaking through the fog forest trees, sprinkling its spotted light onto the ground below. sooooo wonderful and encompassing but unfortunately i could not stop for it but boy did it make my day seeing it!!!
Living in the suburbs requires a daily commute. For most this involves driving to work. In fact the modern suburb was made possible because of the automobile and freeway system. Patronage of the transport system is very strong in Melbourne (although pandemic restrictions have reduced the numbers of travelers on public transport).
"In the before-times, before the plague, before everyone just stopped going, our histories tell of a ritual called the morning commute. When thousands of people in thousands of cars would glide into that vast downtown island, towering and gleaming above the surface of the earth like some desert mirage. But it was very real. It was where we spent the very real hours of our very real lives. Where we shat and ate and occasionally died. Clockwork, every day, rain or shine, we shuttled in and out like ants to a hill, our will wrought by working as parts to a whole. And somehow, someway, though this nebulous whole left all in want of more, we were rewarded: change for a life tendered and the chance to do it over again tomorrow."
The Salish as she head towards Vashon Island for yet another evening commute. This is the only way to get to this lovely island. I was shooting flowers earlier and playing around hand held at higher ISO's here for kicks while the Tamron 90 was still on there. I consider this a fantastic evening in the NW when it is not raining or blowing.
I used an AF fine tune value of -4 for the flower close ups but backed it off to -1 for distance here which still might not be quite right. Mirrorless bodies eliminate that stuff I think since focus info is taken directly off of the sensor rather than relying on a secondary AF system for viewfinder focusing that has to be calibrated. Looking forward to new mirrorless releases from Nikon and Canon both later this year.

It is interesting that there is evidence of humans on the island 12,000 years ago. I wasn't one of them but feel like it sometimes. Thank you for your warm and kind visits my friends! :)
