WMSR 501 brings up the rear of a passenger consist deadheading between the yard at Ridgeley, WV and the station at Cumberland, MD. The unit began life as PRR 2249, also working for Penn Central and Conrail before coming to WMSR in the 90s. It was originally painted by the WMSR in a paint scheme tribute to my beloved Baltimore Orioles, but certainly looked better after it was repainted to represent a fictitious class of WM GP30s and renumbered to 501. If I remember correctly, the artwork for the unit's lettering was scaled up from an O scale Western Maryland Champ decal set, which I always thought was pretty cool.
... far more than Art imitates Life. You just need the right Stage Set, right?

From the Burj Khalifa (originally named the Burj Dubai), the highest building in the world, the city of Dubai looks more like an architectural model than the real thing. The observation deck on the 124th floor - 442m from the ground - is merely half way up the building (828m).

Ministry / Jesus Built My Hotrod...
Church of the Holy Apostles Jason and Sosipater, early 11th century.
The church is built in the regional, byzantine style of Attica (the region around Athens). Typical of this style is the cloisonné masonry (white stones enclosed around bricks), the brick ornaments (including a pseudo cufic script, imitating Arabic), and its domed cross-in-square design.

I went completly crazy with photoshop filters, layers, curves, grain, levels.
Four hours later I was looking at the series.
Thought to myself: "Mwah"

I watched them appear and twinkle their love. I love to sit still, let twinkling darkness surround me, let night spill until there's nothing left but peace. Every-time I sleep under them my soul feels reborn.
Nature is the best medicine for soul.
The darkness is here to heal all the wounds these artificial burning lights have left on our skin. Humans have polluted the night sky too and live in a cycle of need and greed of materialistic things over and over. It's sad to see how so many people die without really living life.
I will be sharing more pictures from my treks and travels. Keep chasing the dream lovelies.
Study of a vine and its movements- this is actually in our indoor tortoise habitat! It may be a squash vine or maybe pumpkin? Or gourd? I don't know. This vine has decided to reach out and grab things! As you can see, it's got a strangle hold on a bead curtain that hangs on the wall behind the habitat! It's almost scary how it moves and twines up in the beads and everything! I hope it doesn't decide to come upstairs!! :)
Representing hope and freedom in San Diego, a 25 foot, 6,000 pound statue named, UNCONDITIONAL SURRENDER, by world-renowned artist, J. Seward Johnson, is a three-dimensional interpretation of a photo taken by Alfred Eisenstaedt of a Sailor, Carl Muscarello, kissing a nurse, Edith Shain, in Times Square, New York City on Aug. 14, 1945, following the announcement of V-J Day.
Edith Shain, the nurse memorialized in Eisenstaedt’s photo, states, "There is so much romance in the statue; it gives such a feeling of hope to all who look at it."
“This statue brings back so many memories of peace, love and happiness. During the moment of the kiss I don’t remember much, it happened so fast and it happened at the perfect time. I didn’t even look at the Sailor who was kissing me,” Shain continued. “I closed my eyes and enjoyed the moment like any woman would have done.”
Only difference between miniatures and Lindsey’s Louboutins is…….she would never leave her shoes like this.
Based on the size to cost ratio, these minis cost almost as much as an actually pair, lol.
I was struck by the similarity in the posture of the woman and the way her coat resembled the winged arms of the man standing in the painting.
The painting "Souvenir I" by artist Kerry James Marshall memorializes those who were killed in the Civil-Rights movement. A large banner portrays John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr and Robert F Kennedy. Across the top of the painting are additional smaller portraits of Medgar Evers; the four children killed in a bombing of a Baptist Church in Birmingham, Alabama; Freedom Riders Andrew Goodman, James Chaney and Michael Schwerner murdered in Mississippi; Malcolm X and Black Panthers Mark Clark and Fred Hampton.

I love clouds. I have a folder full of dozens and dozens of images of nothing but clouds. In fact, I have a set here on Flickr. ;-) Photographing just clouds has taught me a lot about how to look at them, which in turn has taught me a lot about how to pair them up with landscapes.
I remember this morning on Steptoe quite well. It was the type of morning that a lot of photographers would pass on.... I had a perfect case study in such behavior just that morning in fact. But some of us hung out, in part because in some form or another we all realized that light is light. Sometimes that light is a brilliant sunrise, and sometimes it is drab, gray and cloudy. But it is all still light. Photography isn't waiting for nature to serve you up a dish of epic sunrise. Photography is making use of light, brilliant or soft, epic or more mundane. The two key ingredients to photography, after all, are time and light. Considering that makes light half of everything you are really concerned about, then it makes sense to use all the light you can get through that lens of yours. ;-)
All that aside though, I just like this image because of its laid-back simplicity, its quiet, its unassuming nature. The rolling clouds over the rolling hills has a nice synchronicity to it, makes me think of the ocean in fact, or in a way, two of them.
