I found it hard to communicate to my kids what happened on 9/11. They understood the idea, the concept. They understood it in a gee-that-sucks kind of way. But they did not get it. I was in LA at the time, but like all Americans I was glued to the TV all day. I don't pretend to feel what New Yorkrs felt. That unthinkable assault on normality will always be with those who were Americans on that day. This memorial in New Jersey is called Empty Sky, and its a fitting name. Its still odd to me to see one tower, and not two. I do LOVE that one was rebuilt though.

 

Sunrise at this monument gives it a special look, like a fireball. I did not know thismonument was here, I never knew it existed, so showing up at the crack of dawn to see the Stature of Liberty, this monument took me by surprise. If find it hard to leave any 9/11 monument, but I thought the simplicity of this one was captivating. I wish I could say I planned the light, but I did not. Just luck. Enjoy.

GN 3443 has found a new life in the town of Burlington, IA working for the Burlington Junction Railway doing transloading and BNSF interchange runs. This is a fitting place for this locomotive since the "Burlington" in Burlington Northern refers to this town in Iowa.

Success comes from standing out, not fitting in

These old train wheels make quite a fitting foreground for the Bridge I think. Water over my wellies for this one...

A small hawk fits in with the decor in this old tree at the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge in Michigan, August, 2023.

I don't know what caused the odd focus - perhaps a bit of film buckling. It's fitting. I will often stop by this spot as a way to end a day of shooting. I can spend the last few frames and the last few minutes of daylight before driving home in the dark.

On the roll for its final takeoff to Roswell as "Nomadic (OMD) 223" this afternoon. A fitting stop back at its birthplace for this 747.

Macro Mondays theme : Copper

 

For this week theme I thought it would be “fitting” to use these three copper pipe fittings. 😊

 

The length of the part on the forefront is 1 ¼” and the longest in the background 1 ¾”.

 

Thank you everyone for your visits, faves, and kind comments

A lovely spring day hike provided a fitting tribute for memories of my Mom on Mother's Day.

I do enjoy wildflowers over the cultivated garden varieties.

I spotted this beautiful light fitting at Montisfont Abbey. It was in a hallway with stairs nearby so I was able to shoot it against the window.

Iron pipe fittings found in my husbands workroom. I have to say I enjoyed this theme and trying to make something mundane like iron into a half way decent image. I think it turned out not too bad.

Bill Molony, President of the local Blackhawk Chapter of the National Railway Historic Society, poses in front of a Metra commuter train on the BNSF line in Hinsdale, Illinois. Donning the uniform of a station master from the past, Bill was recording the opening narrative of a documentary on railroading in Chicagoland by British freelance producer/videographer Clive Turner.

On the Point de Penhir near to the fishing village of Camaret-sur-Mer is erected, upon the request of General De Gaulle, a Cross of Lorraine-shaped monument that commemorates the Breton sailors, the first men to join the France Libre resistance organisation WWII

Why are you trying so hard to fit in when you were born to stand out?

Elephant Seals - Piedras Blancas Rookery

This caption may seem like like an antithesis but I think it describes this amazing sculpture perfectly. This work by Anish Kapoor titled ‘Dismemberment, Site 1’ is nestled in rolling hills above the Kaipara Harbour on Gibbs Farm. I couldn’t think of anything more unexpected to see out in the country and yet it somehow manages to fit in just perfectly like it was meant to be there. A definite favourite of mine.

The late afternoon and early evening's foul weather put a real damper in the planned night photo shoot that was planned to partake at the Mad River museum for the members of both groups. As the evenings dinner and events simmered down some shots were still to be had as the crew prepared for one more day at Bellevue before heading back home for the season.

A seat dedicated to those in the emergency services who do a brilliant job sometimes in demanding circumstances .

Spotted aptly positioned opposite Epsom Fire Station and alongside the Ambulance Station which is on the other side of a road junction . The Police Station is further into the town centre though . I have seen a few other tribute seats dotted about , there was one I saw in the town centre dedicated to the fallen and injured in conflict .

One day last month we found a pelican rookery that was so totally accessible it was a wonder why I was the only bird photographer nearby. This close up of a brown pelican bill is just something I thought was really cool, and if it wasn't for the close proximity of the roosting bird your life would not be as complete as it now is for seeing it. Yeah, take that last line with a grain of salt - it just fit the bill.
