I followed a Julieanne Kost tutorial the other day and somehow I must have missed a step because it wasn't supposed to be quite like this. One day I will start again but in the meantime I thought I'd keep this anyway, I quite liked it.
These are 10 images of mine, severely cropped after applying 2 blur filters.
After having our first warm day of this spring, which short lived, a cold front came in with rain and freezing rain. I hope this yellow daffodils will survive.

CSX train M416-05 was at Harper's Ferry crossing the Potomac River and exiting Maryland.
Landfall is made and the westbound is now in West Virginia. This daily manifest runs between Rocky Mount, North Carolina and terminates in Cumberland, Maryland.
The good stuff (EMDs) were of course trailing the GE.
,and the bin liner...
For quite awhile now, whenever i have seen 6E26 Knowsley-Wilton household waste train, it has passed through P2 at a rate of knots....
so, to see it come up P1, then stop for a crew change, presented another opportunity...
This image is representational or a reflection of my thoughts on this coincidental event.
Of course we put rubbish in skips, and in bin liners, ( skip being a nickname for the Class 67 loco ),
There are some kingdoms built on selfish desires, lusts of people or things, jealousy, and power that ultimately fall.
A true kingdom, a true castle, a true land, and true hearts and minds are built on something much deeper, something more solid; a foundation that never fails.
In order to obtain this type of kingdom and kingship one must fully surrender.
Surrender to have it all!
A princess must step up in order to be a Queen.
A prince must must bow down in order to be a King.
In order to wear a crown of gold one must step into the unknown. The old ways and old habits have to pass away and die.
When two hearts and two minds meld in the one true kingdom,
you will find the Geld.
Thank you all for the kind favs and comments! On this last day of November, please remember where true treasures reside.

The business on the ends are definitely closed and the cooperative in the middle seems to be. Probably victims of COVID. This is not a terrible neighborhood.
After flapping and running along the water for a bit and not getting airborne it gave up and dove under the surface. Must have been embarrassed with a boat load of people watching.

One of the latest electrification projects in Poland, before the communism finally collapsed, was that of the line between Piła and Krzyż, in fact a fragment of famous Ostbahn line. I suppose further plans would enhance the electrification to Gorzów and finally Kostrzyn at the German border, but let's focus on this very part, that would logically close another electrificated parallel connection East - West.
The concept not only materialized on drawing boards, but first works started, and soon ended as the situation in Poland changed rapidly after 1989 and all that remained were these poles installed for catenary, just outside of Piła in direction of Krzyż. Anyway, they were there for several years, as I don't know whether they're sill there.
It's not the end of the story, as the idea comes every couple of years. Actually there're some design works and it's said that thanks to EU funds the electrification, at least from Piła to Krzyż, would take place in the second half of 2020s.
And the picture: SU45-221 with evening regional passenger train no. 3322 from Kostrzyn to Piła Główna, before reaching the terminus. It passes precisely Powodowo Prefabet junction (the switch is just after the last wagon). May 1, 2003.

Jeden z ostatnich jeszcze komunistycznych projektów elektryfikacyjnych dotyczył odcinka Ostbahny między Piłą i Krzyżem, co sensownie uzupełniałoby zelektryfikowany ciąg Kutno - Toruń - Bydgoszcz - Piła - Krzyż i otwierałoby dalsze możliwości nad kontynuacją do Gorzowa i w końcu Kostrzyna.
Projekt wyszedł nawet z fazy projektowej, bowiem znakiem pierwszych prac elektryfikacyjnych są te słupy, widoczne na fotce. Na zdjęciu co prawda widzimy tylko dwa - ostatnie, ale jest ich dużo więcej w kierunku Piły. Jest, albo było, bowiem zdjęcie z 1 maja 2003 roku, a po tym czasie tematu nie zglębiałem, więc może w końcu słupy zdemontowano.
Temat elektryfikacji tego odcinka jest wciąż żywy, aktualnie trwają kolejne fazy projektowe i mówi się, że drut zawiśnie na tym odcinku Ostbahnu jeszcze w drugiej połowie lat 2020.
Na fotce SU45-221 z pociągiem osobowym 3322 z Kostrzyna do Piły Głównej, tuż przed końcem podróży. Pociąg właśnie minął posterunek bocznicowy szlakowy Powodowo Prefabet (rozjazd ledwie widoczny za ostatnim wagonem).

I had high hopes for this Monarch larva to make it to the next stage of metamorphosis, but alas, it ran out of gas I guess and failed to complete the pupa construction. It's a very sad image and I thought hard about posting it, but in the end I guess I wanted to show exactly how challenging, fragile and dear the full life cycle from egg to caterpillar to pupa to butterfly really is. If you need orientation, it's hanging by the butt end. There are still a number of larvae chomping away, and a few have headed up the garage wall to hang in the eves. Honestly, I'll be thrilled if my perfect pupa I posted yesterday makes it.
One wheel of the one lift that gives access to Grands Montets ski resort broke down yesterday.. A bunch of ski tourers (incl. me…) took advantage…
As dark as night when chaos come,
but as bright as day when they are gone.
Tears of blood flows when in pain but
tears of joy gush when victory is gained.
God never fails, He is our forever Hope ...
Amen!

CN 120 passes under the Highbury signal bridge on its way east on the Dundas Subdivision. As of now this is one of my last photos of a CN cowl in service, unfortunately it was trailing but at least facing forward.
Train: CN Q120 with CN 5732 (SD75I) and CN 2436 (C40-8M).
