The first of three crosses arrives at one of the churches I serve. A group of people walked for 2-1/2 miles on public streets, carrying the crosses, to observe Good Friday.

Salalah and Dhofar region offers visitors an enormous variety of things to see and do. The natural beauty of the surrounding area is breathtaking. You can witness the stunning views of dramatic mountains reaching right to the edge of the sea. You can experience wadis and beaches as well as the springs. Salalah is a coastal city located on the shores of the Indian Ocean, in the southern part of Oman. Although close to the Arabian desert, Salalah enjoys a pleasant tropical climate and even in the summer the temperatures are not too hot as the coastal fringe of Dhofar and Salalah is touched by the winds of the southwest monsoon between June and September. The surface winds encourage an upwelling of colder waters in the Indian Ocean which cool the over-lying moisture-laden air. The fog cools temperatures considerably, such that Salalah is a popular destination for Gulf visitors in the summer as a respite from the relentless heat. The phenomenon of this rain-bearing fog is known locally as the Khareef.
Lush greenness and fog is the last thing one would expect in the Middle East, especially in the middle of summer when temperatures in Kuwait are reaching nearly 60C. Salalah in Oman however offers such a retrieve during Khareef season. The hills and plains are changed to a green oasis due to drizzle downfall and water springs gush in the wadis and in the fogy hills. When the sun light touches the grass, the green is brighter than anywhere I've seen.

Candid street photography from Glasgow, Scotland. This scene tickled my sense of humour, especially with the guy on the right and his sock tan lines! Enjoy!
After a short hiatus, I was able to head out and shoot with Ed over the weekend. This time, my wife and daughter joined us. It was quite refreshing to be out shooting again.
Follow me and let's go!
To the place where we belong
And leave our troubles at home
Come with me, we can go
To a paradise of love and joy
A destination unknown!
Last picture in the series. The metro journey ends. / Dernière photo de la série. Le voyage en métro se termine.
Almost 4 years to the date. It's going to be sooooooo bitchen! I'm getting stoked. Looking at shot locations, basic Sierra High Route to Lake Basin Marion Lake. Then Cataract Creek Pass but why hurry is my general feeling. Then I'd like to make it to Cataract Creek Pass, just a walk in the park from the west side. Shot down to Amphitheatre Lake would be nice.
Pictures of Marion Lake from Red Pass, and Dumbbell Lake is also on my list.
Of course, Windy Point will be a camp spot, hopefully with a couple Milky-way shots.
Forcast calls for days in the mid 60s and nights in the high 40s.

I took this image about an hour after sunset, while cruising at 35'000 feet above Serbia. On a northwesterly heading, we were trailing a few miles behind and 2000ft below another aircraft.
The western horizion was still quite bright, but the stars were already shining nicely and Milky Way was just discernable in the setting constellation Cygnus.
A move that created a lot of interest on the Berks and Hants, 37 688 Great Rocks passes the assembled gallery of photographers at Hungerford Common hauling 5Z31, the 13:47 Reading Depot - Exeter Riverside barrier vehicle move
The final destination was Penzance the following day in order to pick up redundant MkIII stock for scrapping at Newport
Some days you just gotta pick a direction and ride..
Stopped off at yet another abandoned pub for a quick phone snap...

The lead mines chimney at Ballycorus is the last remaining remnant of the lead mine opened in 1807 near Kilternan, Co. Dublin. Open cast mining for lead began around 1807 and then underground mining started in 1826. This continued until 1863. The chimney from the smelting works remains. This is a popular walking destination for the people of Dublin, and also ends my walk!
Sporting a brand new ET44C4, BNSF 3683 leads BNSF train H-GALSTL3-09A through Downtown St. Louis and toward it's final destination of BNSF's Lindenwood Yard. A TRRA track gang is seen dropping off ties, and doing other track and ballast work on the left,
