My search for a new scenic locations continues. This is a quite far located village in my region. About 200 km of bad roads of clay. But what a good location this is. I don't remember so many birds and animals living wild and so close to the people. And people living so close to each other and so welcomed us, the aliens.
The most attractive subject in this village is a wooden bridge - not reliable but poetic. Especially in the early morning hour. We spent several hours walking there and back, watching the sun goes up and the company of swans that stopped for a sleep while we were there.
Thank you for all the comments and faves.
One of my favorite back roads connects the little town of Dingle, Idaho with Bear Lake along the east side of the valley. It goes along the base of high rugged hills on the left side with a beautiful view across the valley on the right side, but the view disappears on a foggy winter day. The abandoned cabin seen through the fog in this photo is the last structure for several miles.
Not long before the TAG heritage unit crossed the Ohio Connecting Bridge westbound (previous image), this eastbound intermodal appeared. The train has just entered the Mon Line and is passing CP Isle where the Island Connector diverges from Main 1. The setting sun highlights both the train and the Pittsburgh skyline in the distance. The sun would fall below the hills to the west in a matter of minutes.

interesting trivia- a human rights group in Vienna, Austria is demanding that gorillas be given the same rights as humans, except the right to vote.
VIA 186 snakes its way through the snow-covered wilderness of northern Ontario. The flag-stop service is a lifeline between remote communities. Connecting small towns like White River, Sultan, and Bisco, offering residents and travelers alike a chance to reach distant destinations that might otherwise be unreachable during the harsh winter months. Inside, the warmth of the cabin contrasts with the frigid world outside, as passengers gaze out at the endless expanse of snow, knowing that this train offers not just transportation, but a vital link between the northern communities that rely on it.

Macro Monday's and the theme of "Knolling".
I quite enjoyed the Knolling theme that MM covered back in 2019 and although I left taking part late as usual I didn't really want to miss this week.
It was mainly a case of finding some items which would be suitable as a subject. The last time I used a picture hanging kit and after a little bit of searching I came across these cabinet connectors in my toolbox.
When we moved house and if we ever get rid of a cabinet or furniture item that is beyond redemption I have a habit of keeping screws, nuts, bolts or anything that is used to hold the parts together as they may come in useful at a later date. At least for this weeks theme they finally did.
After locating a white sheet of A4 I used a pencil and ruler to draw a 3 inch square and arranged the items inside. Then it was just a case of mounting the camera on a tripod above and cropping the image to a square once it was captured.

A Westbound stack train heads across the connector track that brought trains off of the SP's Sunset Route and onto the Union Pacific's LA&SL line at the West end of the City of Industry Yard.
These trains used the Union Pacific main to head down to Puente Jct. where they then used ex-Pacific Electric lines to access the ICTF facility in Long Beach.
The consist has SPSF painted SD45R #7420 leading SD45T-2R 6794 and National Helm Leasing SD45 #6692 which was built as the Frisco/SLSF #944.
This was taken in April of 1987.
