Railfans IN ACTION

The dryer blew-up this morning, forcing me to host a full-blown wardrobe convention across our front porch railing for the world to see and enjoy. Naturally, the weather gods saw my handiwork and immediately unleashed a downpour, giving our clothes a good second rinse. When you pulled into the driveway, I'm sure it looked like a disaster, but think of the energy savings—plus, your socks have never been more thoroughly rinsed!

Just having some fun with a rental car and my Sigma wide-angle lens. Photo taken the other night on US 41 South as I was leaving downtown Fort Myers, heading over to Estero, Florida.
I've been meaning to give this shot a try in my Volkswagen GTI, as it's dash is much more colorful than a Ford Fusion. I just need to find a smooth road first; one that is not covered in potholes. Not particularly an easy task in Northern Ohio!
Photography rule #1: Do NOT relinquish your SLR to your model(s)!!!!!
Check here to see how I got PUNK’D and to see what I was shooting at that exact moment.
Picture it: Washington, DC...2007...one of the most beautiful couples ever to be photographed by yours truly braves subfreezing temperatures in order to accommodate the beauty of outdoor natural light as opposed to extremely shoddy indoor photography skills of...well...yours truly. The photographer comes up with an (in hindsight, NUTS!) interesting idea:
"Do CLONE shots of the boyfriend taking pictures of the girlfriend (and vice versa) so that there are several clones of 'him' pretending to do a photo shoot of one 'her' with an SLR camera! Brrrrrrrrilliant!!" (get the cold pun? Brrrrrrrrr? I'm not funny).
Having never used an SRL, the couple asked it if was okay to actually press the shutter and shoot each other while they pose for the clone shot! How could I say no?!?! It'd probably result in great shots!
The photoshoot comes to an end and we retreat to the car so they can see the morning's shoot in the LCD screen before heading home. When this shot showed up, I had a flashback to what the boyfriend had said when they first arrived:
BF: "You know we're going to have to make sure to get some shots of "Photo Pete" taking pictures."
GF: "Yeeeeeah, definitely, that'd be hot!"
Uh Oh!
BF (as this shot shows up on the screen): "We told you we'd get you."
GF: "And you BETTER put this on Flickr too!!!"
Ah, lessons learned! But a promise is a promise! Thanks for a SUPER PHOTO SHOOT GUYS!!! Patience and they'll start to appear here.

Again with the totally unimaginative title, but yeah. Credit for that goes to Imogen. :P
This is just something from a couple weeks ago. Whenever I'm in a car I'm always extremely tempted to take shots like these, and they always turn out to be completely out of focus... Regardless, I like them for some reason. Soo, I decided to try out some processing and this is what I came up with.
Also, my style has been really schizophrenic lately. I went from some pretty intricate deeply saturated stuff, to extremely minimalist, to textured flowers... to... conceptual weirdness.
Oh, and HBW! For the second time today. :D
Judging by the AE plate, I'd imagine this probably belongs to an American soldier who was previously based in the UK. There's no sign of AE09 CYF on the DVLA website

Two models that were never sold here: the North American Ford Fusion and the Citroën C-Elysée.
what a world ... we were upgraded to top of the line car . . Hybrid Ford Fusion .. i couldn't even get it out of the lot ... its like a jet plane cockpit inside ..
the gear shift is twist ! .. anyway its a lovely drive with no engine sound .. we went to the family cabin at the lake for the night .up island . .. saw a full moon and mist and we kayaked
A lovely warm late September day ...
next day I couldn't get the car going .. a friendly neighbour tried too .. somehow i got it going by opening a door and we dashed back to return it ... felt like a Mafia car ...
all for $25 US .. for the day ( off season) . somehow i had an upgrade . he liked me ?? .. and because its Hybrid no gas/petrol to pay for .. yippee
The Fusion is called Mondeo in other markets, it has a EcoBoost engine, meaning is a turbo engine. It was sold until 2020 and It was the last american sedan available here. This is the mexican version.
Henry keeping an eye out..
Henry was rescued, rehomed and adopted into the Axe household on December 27th 2024.
Henry is a previously abandoned 'rescue cat' pure white kitty who has had a very difficult start to his life with a very long story behind his circumstances.
Henry is now completely safe in his new forever home and he doesn't need to worry about a thing anymore.
Henry was born circa 2022.
Congenital sensorineural deafness in white cats is very common however and thankfully Henry's hearing is perfect. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congenital_sensorineural_deafness_i...

Onscene Of A Level 2 Mobilization On Starling Avenue And Unionport For A Confirmed Suspicious Package Found. Doing Traffic Control.
After a relatively-long day of driving, followed by a very windy experience at L'Anse-aux-Meadows, we drove to our accommodations for that night: Burnt Cape Cabins in Raleigh. They look pretty simple on the outside, but they were very nice on the inside (pics to follow), and it was a welcome relief from the tight conditions of the tree house AirBnb (memorable as it was).

Passage Saint-Pierre Amelot 27/11/2015 09h46
This alley is located right behind the theatre Bacatlan, the "legendary" venue for rock music on the Boulevard Voltaire. On 13 November 2015, as part of a series of Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) terrorist attacks across Paris, several gunmen conducted a mass shooting at the Bataclan. As a result of the attacks, 89 people were killed and over 200 were wounded.
One of the several fresques of Jérôme Mesnager made after the Paris attacks in November 2015. Nous sommes en terrasse, we will not give fear a chance is the message.
