I've been debating about starting another 365 photo project this year. As I set here on day 2 editing the few photos I shot on day 1, I find this is the only shot even slightly worth saving. Luna is not impressed.
So here we go again...

A work with coffee and graphite ,, but failed with loosing details and then this quote came to me.
Thanks for the visit have a wonderful weekend
8165 leads Indian Pacific liveried NR27 & G530 through Medlow Bath while working 3AS8 Indian Pacific service. Wednesday, 18th January 2017. The A/C failed on NR27, resulting in 8165 being attached at Parkes. This was the first time a G class has been used on the Indian Pacific.
I am a dreamer. I know so little of real life that I just can't help re-living such moments as these in my dreams, for such moments are something I have very rarely experienced. I am going to dream about you the whole night, the whole week, the whole year. I feel I know you so well that I couldn't have known you better if we'd been friends for twenty years. You won't fail me, will you? Only two minutes, and you've made me happy forever. Yes, happy. Who knows, perhaps you've reconciled me with myself, resolved all my doubts.
When I woke up it seemed to me that some snatch of a tune I had known for a long time, I had heard somewhere before but had forgotten, a melody of great sweetness, was coming back to me now. It seemed to me that it had been trying to emerge from my soul all my life, and only now-
If and when you fall in love, may you be happy with her. I don't need to wish her anything, for she'll be happy with you. May your sky always be clear, may your dear smile always be bright and happy, and may you be for ever blessed for that moment of bliss and happiness which you gave to another lonely and grateful heart. Isn't such a moment sufficient for the whole of one's life?

This scene made me smile, as I approached this ladybird it appeared to try and hide behind this grass stem.

We remember the photo sessions that yielded gold with inspiration and nostalgia. In my experience though that are just as many or more "failed" trips which we look back on and ask: What the hell was I thinking?
A "failed" photo trip does not imply the trip wasn't otherwise fun, but rather--we failed to execute in the field. Why didn't I think of setting the ISO differently? Tripod--hah--I don't need a tripod. No don't pull over now, the shot will still be there in five minutes. I could of sworn I charged the battery. All these phrases and more you have probably uttered too.
So here's a CHEER to the failed trip, for in the mud and muck there are always a few little happy accidents, like this one.
For this photo, envision a blueberry dropping into a spoon of milk, with perfect ripples and milk splashing in a well lit scene. Yes, please envision that because I couldn't achieve any of it before getting bored of trying.
"Why are you taking a photograph of a Power Plant", my wife asked, well the answer is that as ironic as it seems these Power Plants, as inextricably linked to environmental concerns as they are actually do have aesthetic appeal. There is an abundance of different shapes and colour within the plant that on a fine day one cannot fail to recognise it's magnetism. Now I will agree that not all Power Plants have this appeal, but I believe this one in South Wales does.

After the big CME a couple days ago my Fiancee and I went out Aururora hunting. Unfortunately, although the weather report said it would be completely clear, we were lied to and it was cloudy.
Tot i que sembla un bon lloc per fer fotos de nit, de fet tenen el certificat Starlight, i jo tinc algunesfotos maques des de aquí, des del meu punt de vista hi ha molta contaminació, ara no serè jo el que dura la contraria als que hi entenen. Aquí us poso una foto de fa uns dies a la tassa, s’ha de dir que a part de la contaminació la lluna just sortia per davant també i potser per això hi ha més llum de la que seria ideal per al meu gust. He aprofitat per això per donar un pèl de color més taronja a les llums i aconseguit un resultat que al meu gust queda millor. També la sort i/o paciència d’esperar a tenir algun núvol que doni un toc diferent a la foto.

This session was supposed to produce photos of very serious faces. However, as long as any proper photography session is a great fun "failed" shots with big smiles cannot be avoided :)
A friend on the mountain asked if I caught Tuesday’s sunrise. I couldn’t remember so I checked my Flickr timeline and noticed I had failed to fulfill my end of the bargain. Here’s the sunrise. I apologize for the delay.

A nice surprise on Sunday 6th March 2016 is a DB Schenker Red 67 hauling a failed Virgin East Coast Trains 225 set.
With cloud covering the sun at the wrong moment, 67018 hauls a failed 91129 on 1S07, the 0937 Doncaster - Edinburgh Waverley. At this point it is passing Inveresk 50 minutes late at 1314
A nice colourful combination the two liveries make.
This fence behind the Mundt barn is on it's way down. This must be like the old saw, "All hat and no cattle." This is, "All hay and no cattle." I tried to tell the cows that the hay was that-a-away but they stampeded this-a-way and almost runned me over. When they ran an IQ tests on cattle, they came up with negative numbers. That's what moves the righties up the bell curve. There are more possibilities than the Mundt barn out here. I found many prizes.
As long as eDDie is around, he always finds barns for my agricultural series. I passed this place a lot and it usually had a large dump bin in the view of the barn. This was shot north of Longtown and the barn. The place is about as abandoned as this corral fence. Today, he hauled me up Taylor mountain; I showed him that in the first place.
A great sky showed up for a while and I raced north but could have found better skies a hour earlier. Any sky dictated a day of trolling around Mundt with the camera. There have been too many blank and milk skies lately... and here I am with overcast coming on.
