Political FAILs

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.
Around this time of year the sun will rise between the bridge arches. However, despite trying for many years I have yet to get the shot I really want, with the sun just cresting the hill behind in the centre of the arch. I thought I’d cracked it this time, the conditions looked ideal prior to sunrise and then right at the critical moment a blob of cloud settled on the horizon 😖. Still there’s always next year and I still managed to get some reasonable shots😎.
I’d been using my EOS R plus Tilt Shift lens for most of the shoot and at the last minute I grabbed this shot by just resting my Olympus camera on the bridge decking in order to get the very low angle.
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.

Today is leapday and the sun made an attempt to rise, but was imediately caught in a cloudbank.
So much for that leap.
Pescadero State Beach, between Half Moon Bay and Santa Cruz, California. My favorite place on the coast.
From my Stuff in the Sand collection.
,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 ),
Smile on Saturday theme Dogmania
This is Cookie our failed Guide Dog. Poor Cookie doesn't do so well in the intense heat although he still insists on lying out in the sun, whereupon I have to usher him into the shade or indoors. Thank goodness it's a bit cooler today.
Happy Smile on Saturday!
Ready to land after a failed attempt to dive bomb the snow for its prey. The Great Grey Owl loves fence posts for the simple fact it is closer to the mouse. This one was at a weird angle crisscrossing the fence I was standing next to, didn't feel like straddling 4 strands of barbed wire: been there, done that and all I managed to get is a hole in the crotch of my jeans with no shot to show for it. The bone chilling (50km) wind made me shiver as I was standing in the snow bank with a handheld camera waiting for some kind of movement. Meanwhile, the sun was going down stealing the last light of the day. You definitely have to be patient when shooting owls. Although, not the best shot, I do like the way the tail is fanned out and the look on her face as the lucky mouse got away.

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.
This iconic, beautiful old castle in Europe. Despite visiting Belgium many many times exploring, this was the first time I'd seen this place.
Last minute 48 hour trip taking in a few new spots and some old locations. 17 hour days and mixed weather added to the fun.

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…
Now if this door / does not open / you know you have failed / by entering / despite warnings from many / since you trusted more / on your clear-sightedness.
Sure it was trailing...but having never seen this one of a kind unit before I did my best to capture a clean roster shot here since this was a rather cool bonus. Iowa Interstate ES44AC 516 was blt. Dec. 2014 as part of the regional's third order of modern GE road power. It was specially painted in this Rock Island style red and yellow scheme as part of the IAIS' 30th anniversary celebrations.
It is seen here switching across South Sixth Street adjacent to the historic Rock Island depot.

Rumors spread quickly on this evening of 1940 leading the NTWLAU. Unfortunately Northtown seemed to have other plans as a gevo was placed on the lead. When I heard about the trail fail I decided to stick it out and grab a shot of them pulling out of Minneapolis. Despite being a major disappointment I'm glad I got this photo on a great Minneapolis evening.
