The Hawker Sea Fury was a British naval fighter-bomber developed in the late 1940s, known for its exceptional speed and handling as one of the fastest piston-engine aircraft ever built. It featured a massive Bristol Centaurus 18-cylinder radial engine, producing around 2,500 horsepower, requiring a five-blade Rotol propeller to efficiently convert power into thrust without excessive diameter or supersonic tip speeds. This propeller design allowed the Sea Fury to achieve excellent acceleration, climb performance, and short takeoff distances, which were crucial for carrier operations. The combination of its powerful engine, advanced aerodynamics, and five-blade propeller made the Sea Fury a formidable aircraft, famously used during the Korean War, where it even managed to shoot down a MiG-15 jet.
Five Hole Arch, aka Colonnade Arch, is just left of center, with three windows or holes visible from this perspective. Two other holes open upwards, lighting the alcove.
A storm threatens from the northwest, but it slid to the northeast, barely skirting this area.

I recently recorded a video with B&H with some helpful tips for shooting with a long telephoto lens. Check it out in the link below:

I cover topics such as selecting the right lens, handholding techniques, how to shoot from a tripod in both calm and windy conditions, and much more!
A thrill of a lifer for me! I never thought I would actually see this sparrow but we were extremely fortunate that the location for this bird was easily accessed.

At the west end of Barbara's Gulch, a pair of Phase 5 P42DCs lead a nearly five hour late Zephyr west toward a clear (green) signal at east Rocky. The train was 2 hours late departing Chicago due to equipment issues, and then lost 3 more hours due to extreme weather in Iowa. Today, it is nearly 95°F (35°C) here at 2:15pm.

This photo was taken in 2015. I saw the five-striped sparrow this year, but from farther away and in poor light.
Exactly five years ago today, I returned from one of the most powerful and moving retreats I had ever attended. The graces given to me from this experience were immense and I couldn't help but feel such joy and elation as I returned from the retreat center in Michigan to my (then new) home in NW Ohio.
With little daylight left on a Sunday afternoon, I decided to head out trackside along the CSX Pemberville Sub to see what I could find. I found my way to this signal bridge just north of the line's namesake, where I got two southbounds in the evening light, the second one being this train, R394: manifest traffic from Detroit, MI to Cumberland, MD.
So much of this photo is gone: the signal, the train symbol; even the chances at seeing a lashup like this. While I don't know what prompted me to go out trackside this evening after such a powerful retreat experience, I'm thankful I did.

Took this on my way over to a mates last night, regretting not going to the coast (this is the Onehunga Harbour) but hey glad at least I got to see this sunset,. These 5 poles get to see some interesting sky and sea action.

This fantastic five is located near Michichi, Alberta. After five pics in a row from Saskatchewan, I figured it was time to start posting Alberta stuff again. Taken on new year's eve,
The Five-stripe is, first of all, a very rare bird in Arizona, with maximum counts of fewer than 50 territorial males each nesting season. Almost all of these inhabit a handful of nearly inaccessible canyons in the rugged terrain of the Pajaritos Mountains. It was an adventure to get too these guys.
I turn 25 today. Time to see the path I've past, enjoy the present, and look forward to new beginnings.

My intention yesterday had been to get a long shot of Stanier Black 5 44871 \s it passed through South Wigston with the 5Z38 10.30 from Orton Mere to the ELR at Bury. However the slight late running meant that a Turbostar running to Leicester prevented that option
