SSR's ER02 from Airly coal mine to the power station at Eraring coasts through Wyee station with BRM001, G513, G514, BRM002. The train would shortly become a failure while climbing the bank at Hawkmount, blocking passenger trains for over 2 hours. It would eventually be rescued by SSR Alco 8049.
This photo is dedicated to a true friend of mine.
"For me, this photo is a very personal thing, as i've been thinking a lot about lately how soceity and the surroundings can make you feel lonely. Now, it's not soceity that actually creates the feeling, it's yourself. As being different from your surroundings, can tend to have that effect on you. You feel different, and lonely, afraid of not doing what everyone else expects you to do. I had been dealing with that feeling for a while, but around a week ago I thought ''fuck it''. Now I know it sounds cliche, but you have to be true to yourself, be who you want to be and not who everyone else want you to be. By living your life from the heart, you will have no regrets, yet living in fear, will make you a robot. Just like all the other robot people. As the quote says '' They made fools out of the best of us, and robots out of the rest of us.
- Once I got this out of my mind, I though of expressing it in a photo, and I know no one else with the talent, and drive as Lloyd! So, I explained him this idea and here is the final product. - I don't think that we could have expressed this feeling in a better way.
Be who you wanna be. There is just no excuse.''
- Mathis Meilby, 2013
Thank you so much for all the attention i've received lately! All those amazing words and kind things you say means a lot to me! Thank you!
This is my second successful image for 2013. Mathis (which is the character in this photo) and I went for a shoot this weekend. Our idea was to show a person who was lonely and scared of failing.
It was freaking cold, at the beach, even dough I was wearing cloth - so thanks Mathis for being so brave to take off almost every piece of your cloth and jump into the 1 celsius degrees water. People around us couldn't understand what the heck we were doing...
As failure and adversity the wave is impossible to avoid and this symbolizes, that you have to push yourself and keep on going cause "there is no succes like failure" cause it makes us stronger.

Yes, this one is old, but the photo I took yesterday was a failure--and I didn't want to post another lame photo just for the sake of posting.
I'll try to do better.
Lately, all creativity seems to have gone out the door.
Now I try, but come up with nothing but empty thoughts. The product of over thinking.
I'm thinking of starting some sort of mini series to get going on this again. But really have no idea what I'd like to do.
Suggestions?
This shot was taken on the Kancamagus Highway in NH. We went to a Hot Air balloon festival that never launched any balloons in NY while we were there.
The highlight of the trip was probably the drive home as far as views are concerned. We got to the highway very close to the end of the sunset however we still got some really amazing views.
My last trip to the Molotov Line, just a couple of days ago, proved to be an ultimate failure. Lots of uselessly burnt fuel, lots of driving on dusty roads and ploughing my way through dark, swampy thickets. All in vain. There was not even a trace of things I was looking for. Judging it from a different perspective I could say that another swath of terrain was checked thoroughly...
While lurking there I noticed a tree which looked somewhat apocalyptic to me so I tried to approach it to take a snap - only to be stopped dead in my tracks by a menacing sight of a terrifying predator waiting in ambush. I then realized that I made 200 kilometers to come to this place and I had not seen a single elephant, rhino or even a lion. The area was utterly cleansed... and I knew who, or what was behind it... Monster eyed me lazily, probably considering a puny human to be a sorrowful prey, not worth the usual effort of beheading the victim with a lightning speed. It seemed to wait for a more sizeable morsel, possibly a whale from a nearby water-filled hole.
I took a snap and then run pell-mell to my car. I throw my camera bag inside and, not bothering to slam the door shut, I drove off Mad-Max style across the fields - never to come back again.

Flight AA25 to Philadelphia had just opened the throttles to begin his take-off when there were several bangs and bursts of flame from the left engine. Take-off aborted, flight cancelled.
Thankfully, this happened right at the start of the take-off run and not 20-30 seconds later.
Failure
I am of your own doing
You invented me
Long ago
You did not come up
With the idea on your own
Your parents actually
Introduced the idea
But you ran with it
Built me up
Made me strong
Until there was no
Getting me to stop
You gave me the power
And sadly
You have always held
The power
To do away with me
But you are of the
Human Race
Always attempting
To be first
To be the top
Silly humans
If only you knew
Life isn't about
Succeeding or failing
It is about loving
And when you love
You always win

BNSF special move from Abilene, KS to Aurora, MO with rescue power for the Branson Scenic Railway rolls into Elwood. They would take the connector at Nichols and head West on the Cherokee to Aurora.
Back in late June/early July BSR's GP30 had a mechanical failure resulting in them having to pause train service. Their new owner American Heritage Railways had this stored GP10 up in Abilene so they were able to expedite it down to Branson to take over for BSRX 99.

Stanier Black 5 4-6-0 45305 is rostered all this week. I was rostered fireman today on the 15.00 service and then dispose. Just one round trip but still very enjoyable. Before signing on I grabbed this shot of 45305 approaching the A6 bridge on the outskirts of Loughborough with the delayed 12.45 service to Leicester.
Tomorrow marks the 53rd anniversary of 45305’s failure to head BR’s last steam special...

After the power failure last night they turn on the lights in sections to prevent overload.
There's nothing here to really nurture the growth except the growing piles of tumbleweed, bones and bird poop. It was gross.
(continued) The gentleman settled on a spot about 25 yards away and sat down in the weeds, presumably thinking he was out of my way, setting up a second shot of the same scene in less than 30 seconds. In failing to communicate, and me trying not to engineer the scene, the fisherman ended up making giving me more that I had hoped for. We exchanged waves as I yelled thank you up to him and we parted ways.

"The lake’s history is a fascinating one. Due to its remote location, it played an important role in World War II as the site for the top secret Project Habbakuk. This was an attempt by the the Allied Forces to create an unsinkable aircraft carrier out of a special material that contained pulp and seawater. The ‘Pykekrete‘ was to be frozen solid so it would float. The experiment was a failure and the remains of the first model was left to sink in the lake. In summer it is possible to scuba dive down and see the wreck." Expedia.com
Enjoy your Sunday and have a wonderful week ahead!
At a Cobra chemical plant, a BAT has failed from constant usage, and is reported for replacement.

Lauren sent me a selfie video.
Here's the three stills from it that tell the story.
I don't believe in reciprocity failure as when I compensate for such, it seems to overexposed and has a large color shift
for 9 months of planning, i expected a lot more. instead its a misrepresentation of what the scene really is. i guess thats what you can expect when its curated by someone who doesnt even live in the state. biggest waste of my time to date. An unfinished collab wall, and so much blank space that could have been utilized by the art other people submitted. being pretentious obviously only makes you lazy.
Thanks to Bonus for being a real human being.
Thanks TipToe for being the biggest cocksucker i know. die in a fire, you prick.
yea i said it.

Fort Lauderdale is a city in the U.S. state of Florida, 25 miles (40 km) north of Miami. It is the county seat of Broward County. As of the 2019 census, the city has an estimated population of 182,437. Fort Lauderdale is a principal city of the Miami metropolitan area, which was home to an estimated 6,198,782 people in 2018.
The city is a popular tourist destination, with an average year-round temperature of 75.5 °F (24.2 °C) and 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. Greater Fort Lauderdale which takes in all of Broward County hosted 12 million visitors in 2012, including 2.8 million international visitors. The city and county in 2012 collected $43.9 million from the 5% hotel tax it charges, after hotels in the area recorded an occupancy rate for the year of 72.7 percent and an average daily rate of $114.48. The district has 561 hotels and motels comprising nearly 35,000 rooms. Forty six cruise ships sailed from Port Everglades in 2012. Greater Fort Lauderdale has over 4,000 restaurants, 63 golf courses, 12 shopping malls, 16 museums, 132 nightclubs, 278 parkland campsites, and 100 marinas housing 45,000 resident yachts.
Fort Lauderdale is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the Second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale (1782–1838), younger brother of Lieutenant Colonel James Lauderdale. William Lauderdale was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. However, development of the city did not begin until 50 years after the forts were abandoned at the end of the conflict. Three forts named "Fort Lauderdale" were constructed; the first was at the fork of the New River, the second at Tarpon Bend on the New River between the Colee Hammock and Rio Vista neighborhoods, and the third near the site of the Bahia Mar Marina.
The area in which the city of Fort Lauderdale would later be founded was inhabited for more than two thousand years by the Tequesta Indians. Contact with Spanish explorers in the 16th century proved disastrous for the Tequesta, as the Europeans unwittingly brought with them diseases, such as smallpox, to which the native populations possessed no resistance. For the Tequesta, disease, coupled with continuing conflict with their Calusa neighbors, contributed greatly to their decline over the next two centuries. By 1763, there were only a few Tequesta left in Florida, and most of them were evacuated to Cuba when the Spanish ceded Florida to the British in 1763, under the terms of the Treaty of Paris (1763), which ended the Seven Years' War. Although control of the area changed between Spain, the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Confederate States of America, it remained largely undeveloped until the 20th century.
The Fort Lauderdale area was known as the "New River Settlement" before the 20th century. In the 1830s there were approximately 70 settlers living along the New River. William Cooley, the local Justice of the Peace, was a farmer and wrecker, who traded with the Seminole Indians. On January 6, 1836, while Cooley was leading an attempt to salvage a wrecked ship, a band of Seminoles attacked his farm, killing his wife and children, and the children's tutor. The other farms in the settlement were not attacked, but all the white residents in the area abandoned the settlement, fleeing first to the Cape Florida Lighthouse on Key Biscayne, and then to Key West.
The first United States stockade named Fort Lauderdale was built in 1838, and subsequently was a site of fighting during the Second Seminole War. The fort was abandoned in 1842, after the end of the war, and the area remained virtually unpopulated until the 1890s. It was not until Frank Stranahan arrived in the area in 1893 to operate a ferry across the New River, and the Florida East Coast Railroad's completion of a route through the area in 1896, that any organized development began. The city was incorporated in 1911, and in 1915 was designated the county seat of newly formed Broward County.
Fort Lauderdale's first major development began in the 1920s, during the Florida land boom of the 1920s. The 1926 Miami Hurricane and the Great Depression of the 1930s caused a great deal of economic dislocation. In July 1935, an African-American man named Rubin Stacy was accused of robbing a white woman at knife point. He was arrested and being transported to a Miami jail when police were run off the road by a mob. A group of 100 white men proceeded to hang Stacy from a tree near the scene of his alleged robbery. His body was riddled with some twenty bullets. The murder was subsequently used by the press in Nazi Germany to discredit US critiques of its own persecution of Jews, Communists, and Catholics.
When World War II began, Fort Lauderdale became a major US base, with a Naval Air Station to train pilots, radar operators, and fire control, operators. A Coast Guard base at Port Everglades was also established.
On July 4, 1961, African Americans started a series of protests, wade-ins, at beaches that were off-limits to them, to protest "the failure of the county to build a road to the Negro beach". On July 11, 1962, a verdict by Ted Cabot went against the city's policy of racial segregation of public beaches.
Today, Fort Lauderdale is a major yachting center, one of the nation's largest tourist destinations, and the center of a metropolitan division with 1.8 million people.

The paper based on joint research conducted by the Bombay Natural History Society, Royal Society for the Protection of Birds and Indian Veterinary Research Institute, published in May 2014 in the journal of the Cambridge University Press, highlighted that steppe eagles are adversely affected by veterinary use of diclofenac and may fall prey to it. The research found the same signs of kidney failure as seen in the Gyps vulture killed due to diclofenac. They found extensive visceral gout, lesions and uric acid deposits in the liver, kidney and spleen, as well as deposits of diclofenac residue in tissues. Steppe eagles are opportunistic scavengers, which may expose them to the risk of diclofenac poisoning.
