For a short time, Amtrak’s California Zephyr saw 161 on rotation. This was Amtrak’s Phase I heritage unit and replaced the previous Phase I, 156, after it hit a truck and got severely damaged. Just like 156, 161 also has been retired as a few weeks ago it caught fire in Washington D.C. and was burnt to a crisp.

Hey everyone, here’s a vignette that’s been sitting on my desk for months and I finally found the motivation to finish it. It’s nothing too interesting but I had fun making the figures.
Sagres, Praia de Tonel, Elmarit 28mm.
Praia do Tonel is popular with surfers as it offers a brisk-westerly wind that often produces large Atlantic breakers. Also nice for sunbathing etc. because of the sheltered spots back towards the cliffs.
Thanks for all your visits, comments and invites on my previous photos and for all the support and friendship in the past "Flickr year", much appreciated!
The daughter of my dear friend Marina is seriously ill, and I just wanted to let them know my thoughts are with them both...
canal called Heemraadssingel. In Rotterdam not for defending the city, but to build houses for the rich people to live just outside the center.
Simple wooden benches were the best seats on the dock for the G4 geomagnetic storm (aka northern lights) in the early morning hours of April 24, 2023. Spectacular beaming colors danced across the night sky and reflected on the remaining ice of Bass Lake in Price County, WI. Observation tower on Tim's Hill just peeks above the treetops across the lake.

I read music!
I displayed miniatures with Licca and took some photos of them for a change... It's so fun! ^_^
Finally I decided the color of the sewing boxes and finished painting them. But the work to sand their surface is still left... that's a little troublesome. sigh~^^;
Best wishes to all my Flickr friends for happy holidays. Stay safe. I know where I want to be once it warms up.

A sunny afternoon with the typical Dutch white clouds against a blue sky on the dike of the island Marken. The group houses with their red roofs and green painted wooden walls, is called the Rozewerf. Marken, 2018.
Again, I would like to thank everyone for your support, views, faves and comments!
Rozewerf is een buurtschap in de gemeente Waterland, in de Nederlandse provincie Noord-Holland.Het is één van de buurtschappen die het leef- en- woongemeenschap van het voormalig eiland Marken vormen. Rozewerf is gelegen net ten zuiden van Grotewerf. Andere spelling voor de buurtschap is Roze Werf en oudere spellingen zijn Rozenwerf en Rozen Werf.
Rozewerf is van oorsprong een terp, dat een werf wordt genoemd. Deze terp is niet vernoemd naar de kleur maar meer dan waarschijnlijk naar de persoon of familie Roos of Rozen, die de eigenaar of aanlegger is geweest van de werf. Net als de andere ten noorden van Rozewerf gelegen werven stammen de meeste huizen uit de 18e en 19e eeuw. In de loop van de tijd zijn deze wel flink verbouwd. Rozewerf kent net als Grotewerf nog het meest oorspronkelijke uiterlijk van deze oude bewoning waardoor het nog de karakteristieke en monumentale panden heeft. Rozewerf is een kleine buurtschap en de huizen staat ook erg dicht op elkaar, er is smalle doorgang door de buurtschap. Rozewerf ligt echt maar net aan de dijk die het beschermt van het water, ooit de Zuiderzee thans het Markermeer. Rozewerf lag van oorsprong niet aan het water maar in de loop der tijd is een deel van het eiland verzwolgen door de zee.

Fish for Breakfast
I never knew that grackles ate fish, but this female boat-tailed grackle at Ocean City, New Jersey caught and fed three fish to her fledglings within ten minutes. Much more efficient than the herons nesting nearby

Something different for today. Prayers for folks next-door in Alabama that got hit by tornadoes last night. We awoke to a tornado watch at 3 a.m. but everything is calm here. Check out the videos of the 2 guys & their dog driving through the wildfires in Gatlinburg, Tennessee (Michael Luciano) ... I don't know how they got out of there - angels no doubt. These rains have hopefully helped with the fires.
The cataclysmic 1991 eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines was the second largest volcanic eruption of the twentieth century, and by far the largest eruption to affect a densely populated area. It occurred on June 15, 1991. I was part of the evacuation and relief effort. It was the last action of any significance I would perform in the US Navy.
The eruption produced high-speed avalanches of hot ash and gas, giant mudflows, and a cloud of volcanic ash hundreds of miles across that ushered in climate change across the globe. The resulting damage to US assets in the Philippines was pivotal in the decision to close the massive strategic US military bases there. Many US servicemen lost friends and family in the ordeal never to be heard from again. The impacts of the eruption continue to this day.
A location I've wanted to visit for some time is 'Sculpture by the Lakes' near Dorchester in Dorset. It's a sculpture park featuring many wonderful works by renowned sculptor Simon Gudgeon. The art is thoughtfully placed in the beautifully landscaped grounds, and it's well worth a visit, both for photographers and art lovers alike.

Heaven For Everyone - the genial song performed by Freddie Mercury (Queen) is exactly the perfect title for the region where I live.
Here the road can be seen where I walked some days ago through my beloved Mühlviertel in the Northern part of Upper Austria ...
Don´t forget to listen to the song :-))

AAW May 15 - 22: Black and White Shadows
WIT: I was at a restaurant during a rain storm, but the sun shone through the window and curtain for about 5 seconds before disappearing behind the clouds again, so I only had a chance at one shot when I saw the shadows thrown across the floor.
BW conversion was in-camera, and in post just cropped and slightly upped the contrast.
