The Golden Triangle heads east light power after setting out cars at the Fiber Plant west of Columbus, Mississippi. #819 and #810 were two of four EMD GP38-2s ordered brand-new by Weyerhaeuser in 1980 for a logging operation in Washington state known as the Chehalis Western (CWWR). When the CWWR ceased operations in 1992, these two engines went to the Golden Triangle where they have remained in operation since Weyerhaeuser sold its railroad subsidiaries to Patriot Rail. The latter two CWWR GP38-2s, #817 and #818, went to the De Queen and Eastern in Arkansas, another former Weyerhaeuser operation.
The GTRA heads home to the Trinity pulp mill after working the fiber plant at Bent Oak and interchanging at Triangle Junction. The railroad began operations in 1982 with the opening of the Trinity mill by Weyerhaeuser. The railroad was sold to Patriot Rail in 2010, and Weyerhaeuser sold the pulp mill and the modified fiber mill to International Paper in 2016.
I wanted to capture the symmetry of the Petronas Towers and its reflections but the subjects are just too huge to fit into the frame at 10mm focal length. Zooming out using my feet was not an option as I would have lost the reflections on the water and would have generated too much clutter in the foreground. But I always loved the flattering golden light so I have to make do with what was at hand! Before this frame, I also tried to capture this scene using a fisheye lens.

Piggly Wiggly Grocers had entered the Beaumont market in the 1920s. I speculate that this store, on Magnolia Ave at Plum Ave., might have been built in the 1920s or early 1930s. At the time of this photo a local church owned the property. This was my first sightng of a concrete bas relief Piggly Wiggly sign. Beaumont, Texas. 5.8.2016.

Description: The image was shot during my 1st visit to Skybar in Traders Hotel this year. Though it is still in the rainy season, I feel that the blue hour provided enough impact to the image. The image is also part of a sequence of images taken for a cityscape timelapse which is available @ www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=10151983149929811¬if_...

A John Deere combine harvests wheat that was previously cut and laid into windrows on a farm near Big Sandy, Montana.
The wheat was cut into windrows because much of it had fallen over after having been infested with the sawtoothed grain beetle, which eats the stem and thus makes it too weak to support the weight of the wheat's head.

Constructed in 2006, Corktown Footbridge is a 70-metre, award-winning pedestrian and cycling bridge in the City of Ottawa, Ontario, to span the Rideau Canal, linking the University of Ottawa with the Golden Triangle neighbourhood – it is known for its tree-lined streets, century-old homes, and proximity to downtown. The bridge is famous for "love locks," offers scenic views of the canal and the iconic Château Laurier. It is located near the former 19th century site of Corktown, a rough settlement of huts that once housed about 6,000 Irish navvies and their families, including many from Ireland's Cork County. The workers helped pick and shovel out the Rideau Canal between 1826 and 1832. In the process, half fell ill— many with malaria— and about 1,000 died.
After the construction of the bridge in 2006, the Irish descendants have been lobbying for months in favour of naming the bridge in their honour. On June 13, 2007, after winning over three other proposed names, the Ottawa City Council officially named the bridge Corktown Footbridge. The dedication of this bridge honours the Corktown community founded by the canal workers and their families who lived just north of this site until the 1840s. On September 11, 2007, it was officially opened with many community members, politicians, and costumed volunteers from the Bytown Museum on hand to celebrate.

*************
Construite en 2006, la passerelle de Corktown, longue de 70 mètres et primée, est une passerelle piétonne et cyclable située à Ottawa, en Ontario. Elle enjambe le canal Rideau et relie l'Université d'Ottawa au Triangle d'or, quartier réputé pour ses rues bordées d'arbres, ses maisons centenaires et sa proximité avec le centre-ville. Célèbre pour ses cadenas d'amour, la passerelle offre une vue imprenable sur le canal et l'emblématique Château Laurier. Elle se trouve à proximité de l'ancien site de Corktown, un hameau rudimentaire du XIXe siècle qui abritait autrefois environ 6 000 terrassiers irlandais et leurs familles, originaires notamment du comté de Cork, en Irlande. Ces travailleurs ont participé au creusement du canal Rideau entre 1826 et 1832. La moitié d'entre eux tombèrent malades, notamment du paludisme, et environ 1 000 décédèrent.
Après la construction de la passerelle en 2006, les descendants des Irlandais ont fait pression pendant des mois pour qu'elle porte leur nom. Le 13 juin 2007, après avoir remporté la mise face à trois autres propositions, le conseil municipal d'Ottawa a officiellement baptisé la passerelle « Passerelle de Corktown ». L'inauguration de ce pont rend hommage à la communauté de Corktown, fondée par les ouvriers du canal et leurs familles qui vivaient juste au nord de ce site jusqu'aux années 1840. Le 11 septembre 2007, il a été officiellement inauguré en présence de nombreux membres de la communauté, de politiciens et de bénévoles costumés du musée de Bytown.

Back in the 1950s and early 1960s Proctor Street was a hub for nightlife in the Golden Triangle of Texas. (Beaumont,Orange and Port Arthur) I'm wondering if this place was the lone survivor of those glory days, in P.A. When I first visited downtown Port Arthur in 2012, it was full of abandoned buildings, all of the traffic lights had been removed and there weren't many signs of life. It was rather surreal. This was the only neon sign I saw on Proctor. As of 2019 the city had begun some renovations on several of the buildings. This place made the cut. Port Arthur, Texas. 4.11.2014.
