When you see something excellent or something very beautiful, a silent (open mouthed) gasp in astonishment will be the greatest word one can ever say !!
SFG Train 565-27 and its three MLW RS18u's are digging into the grade out of Nouvelle-Ouest, with a big train of cement along with a large pick up of chips and lumber from the lumber mill.
With the engines in notch 8, the engineer is slowly getting the train up to track speed, as they head to Matapedia.

A jumper surfaces and gasps as she comes up in the icy lake water during the Penguin Plunge held at City Beach in Whitefish Montana as part of the City’s annual Winter Carnival. The plunge is held to benefit Special Olympics and is sponsored by Local Law Enforcement agencies and businesses. Over 130 people jumped and raised more than $40,000!
My love,
I cant give you the moon,
Neither can i buy you the stars,
All that I can offer is my heart,
Hoping that with this you do not part.
Glimpses of Fall.
Explored on 12th September 2007!

We got this amaryllis at the beginning of December and I've been photographing it since then. It's bloomed three or four times and I cut everything back after the last bloom 5 weeks ago. Since then, another spike has been slowly growing. And it's finally starting to bloom. I'm not an amaryllis expert, but I think this is the last effort. I'm impressed it's lasted this long.

Desperation sets in when you have a long day without much success. September 9th was a chase that began out in California, then it was back to AZ, then back to CA, then late into the night up near Salome and around midnight I was in Wickenburg when I see storms well to my south by Gila Bend go up. I knew I had gotten no lightning that night and I just had to keep going.
So I dropped south in a desperate attempt to not go home empty handed, and around 1am I was finally SW of Gila Bend on a couple of great storms and this was the last gasp before they all finally died out.
Bottom line...that's what it takes sometimes to get the shots you want. This was about a 15-hour chase day and it took until the last hour to get any bolts I wanted.
Love what I do :)
I surprised a toilet roll on the landing today, he had 'escaped' from the bathroom and got quite a shock as I climbed the stairs :)

Life imitates art far more than art imitates life.
Oscar Wilde.
Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (16 October 1854 – 30 November 1900) was an Irish playwright, novelist, essayist, and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s. He is remembered for his epigrams, his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, his plays, as well as the circumstances of his imprisonment and early death.
Wilde's parents were successful Anglo-Irish, Dublin intellectuals. Their son became fluent in French and German early in life. At university, Wilde read Greats; he proved himself to be an outstanding classicist, first at Dublin, then at Oxford. He became known for his involvement in the rising philosophy of aestheticism, led by two of his tutors, Walter Pater and John Ruskin. After university, Wilde moved to London into fashionable cultural and social circles.
As a spokesman for aestheticism, he tried his hand at various literary activities: he published a book of poems, lectured in the United States and Canada on the new "English Renaissance in Art", and then returned to London where he worked prolifically as a journalist. Known for his biting wit, flamboyant dress and glittering conversation, Wilde became one of the best-known personalities of his day. Source Wikipedia.

Indoors for the winter, this Hibiscus ‘delta dawn’ started budding on January 31st. Today the flower exploded into its full five inches across. Shot with my iPhone 6 using the light from the chandelier.

Today the air quality dramatically improved. It's not going to stay good so despite it being a work day, I just took off and did my favourite outdoors exercise: Windy Hill.
Look- the bay! I could see the bay! Okay, there are some mountains on the other side of it that are curiously absent and I should have been able to see San Francisco to the north but couldn't... but still, it's the bay.
It's a horizon further away than I have seen in quite a while!
So glad that the Santa Cruz fires didn't make it to Windy Hill.
We have had snow on the ground for a while now, but I got this last weekend before the white stuff covered all the autumn color. Those leaves were not ready to be covered.
Spock and Sulu are drawn to the sounds of cries from over the next rise...
Redshirt: Choke, gasp choke!
Spock: Hmm..the flora on this world appears quite hostile! Perhaps the Captain should reevalute his descision to barbeque here? Liutenant, set your phaser for "stun" and aim at those tendrils.
Sulu: Aye, sir!
Redshirt: AHHH! What the HELL?
Sulu: Oops! Aimed a liltle high and hit his butt...and what a nice tight one it is at that!
AUF DER SUCHE NACH MÖGLICHKEITEN,
MÖGLICHES FESTZUHALTEN (Heinz Gasper 1980)
Als gebürtiger Düsseldorfer hat es mich schon sehr früh in die Ferne gezogen. Frankfurt, München, Wien, Graz und seit 1999 wohnhaft in Jennersdorf, im wunderschönen Südburgenland.
Im ausgeübten Beruf als Werbegestalter und Grafiker (1966-1992) aber auch in der Selbständigkeit (bis 2012) ist die bildende Kunst immer allgegenwärtig gewesen.
Meine Leidenschaft sind Experimente mit verschiedenen Hilfsmitteln und Materialien wie zum Beispiel:
Kurzfilme mit und ohne Kamera - Kodak-Sofortbilder ganz ohne Kamera - Negativstreifen und Dias anders gesehen - PC-Fehler zur kreativen Weiterverarbeitung verwenden - Digitalfotografie und ihre Möglichkeiten mit einem Apple-Computer kombinieren und verfeinern - und bis heute noch vieles mehr entdecken...
The Aurora Australis beaming through the clouds at Tuross Head, Australia, last Sunday night, 4th of August. It was 1:30 am when I shot this twelve-frame panorama. A jumper and two jackets only barely managed to keep the cold out!
