The loco driver prepares to inspect his charge for the night prior to moving out of the shed.

And I know we weren't perfect

But I've never felt this way for no one, oh

And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay, now that I'm gone

I guess you didn't mean what you wrote in that song about me

'Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street.

Concours 'd Elegance - Paleis Het Loo (Apeldoorn)

Pulling into the parking lot at our doctor's office, I saw this cute black lab patiently sitting in the driver's seat of the car opposite me and intently watching the building entrance. It was a cloudy day in August, and due to tinted windshields, low light, and my rushing to an appointment, even my iPhone 13 couldn't get a good image. But, as so often happens, poor images make for fun sliding. So - here is Mr. or Ms. Black Lab, in a significantly transformed scene for Sunday.

I started with the PSE winters filter, which turned things mostly monochrome and a lot lighter. I then used several Jixipix filters: spektrel and portrait painter, to get the swirled look to the trees; saturated the green a bit in iMac photos; back to Jixipix for artista sketch and finally snow daze. I tried to put the original in the first comment box, but that doesn't usually work for me, so...

Tighten that screw...

Shot for Our Daily Challenge :”DIY”

A cold front came through today clearing up the skies for a while and blowing like crazy. It was in the low 20's with a wind chill of 5 above when I shot this manifest southbound at Munger on the Rainy Sub. After I uploaded the shot I noticed that I caught a backseat driver without even knowing it.

Seems like my taxi-ride for the day was stood on the next platform getting very wet too! Well having bagged the shot I thought I'd upload it anyway .....

The train is Northern's 16.48 Blackpool North - Bolton (2J98) service departing a very rainy Preston and surprisingly running to time given some of the challenges experienced on the network earlier in the day. The "back-seat driver" is probably the guard having a quite moment before he heads down the train to check tickets.

P.S.: The driver is not this funny being on the left side!

Sometimes, drivers get more information from reflection .

This is a very busy crossing that can turn a ten minute journey into town into a twenty minute journey.

My best shot of the session. This encapsulates exactly what I wanted.

It's nice when that happens, eh?

Just for shits and giggles, take a pic of a large pile driver at a construction site. Turn said pic 90-degrees counterclockwise, and convert to B&W.

Still get a pretty cool image. Who says ya gotta show 'em as ya shot "em. (I once won a photo competition with a picture that had lost a few weeks prior. Brought it back, turned it upside down, et voila. First Place.)
