In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly.
Crazy,
Over the rainbow, I am crazy,
Bars in the window.
There must have been a door there in the wall
When I came in...
Symbolism and Floyd, man, those were the days !

Great place to be, great place to drink wine...

In de zomervakantie van 2024 gingen Mathijs en ik samen een weekje naar de Oberpfalz in Duitsland. Door dit gebied heen lopen nog best veel leuke diesellijnen. Iets wat wij erg leuk vinden. Zeker ook omdat er veel mooi en ook oud materieel rijdt. Sinds de start van de nieuwe dienstregeling van 2024 is de RE2 tussen München en Hof naar DB gegaan. Tot eind 2023 reed Alex ook wel bekend als die Länderbahn de RE2. DB zet uitsluitend de Baureihe 218 met Doppelstockwagen in op de RE2. Wanneer er te weinig 218's beschikbaar zijn door problemen wordt er beroep gedaan op dieseltreinstellen van de serie 612. Gelukkig was dit begin augustus niet het geval en reden alle omlopen met 218's. Zaterdag 3 augustus 2024 begon in de Oberpfalz erg zonnig. Eind van de ochtend trok het dicht en waren er best flinke regenbuien op komst. Tijd voor wat anders. We besloten om even naar een groot overdekt winkelcentrum te gaan. Toen we naar het vakantiehuisje wilden gaan, begon de lucht toch weer open te trekken. Er werd iets om gereden en een tussenstop gemaakt bij het station van Regenstauf. We zouden de Alex even op de foto zetten. Nadat de RE 40 met 612 vertrokken was, zou het tijd zijn voor de Alex. Opeens kwam er in plaats van de Alex een 218 van DB de bocht om. Mooi meegenomen! De trein had een vertraging van ruim een uur, vanwege een storing. Zo was een plaat van een 218 op Regenstauf ook in de pocket. Op dit station komen maar weinig fotografen. Zelf vind ik het een leuke plek met het mooie, oude stationsgebouw. En de doorgaande treinen naar Regensburg pakken altijd het middelste spoor, waardoor het ook een stuk mooier is.

Featured is one of the six bridges connecting both sides of Dubai Marina development. Flowing lines, flashy architecture, vibrant and colourful lights, crazy urban design...what's not to like in such a cityscape?
This shot was taken in near darkness from a moving helicopter. I used Canon 5Dmk3 and Canon TS-E 24mm lens. I was going for a miniature effect so I set the lens to capture the image at the widest aperture in a fully tilted position.

In Wester Ross, where the River Ewe merges with the sea at Poolewe, these brackish waters on a receding tide hold, and reveal, many secrets.
Crouching patiently for a sundown shot, the stillness was only later broken by two otters feeding about 30 yards in front of me.
Sorry folks, I didn't have another camera and a big lens to capture that, but the wide angled long exposure displays the brilliant golden amber hues of the seaweed on the shoreline.
Many thanks as always for your views, and welcome comments.

The autumn color has gone somewhere and Yuri has gone home in Saitama too.
I roam around the urban area of Sendai and shoot everything I see.
And I sometimes tries the monochrome expression recently.
Enjoy the scneries I saw together !
紅葉はどこかに行ってしまったし、百合ちゃんは埼玉に戻ってしまいました。
で、仙台の市街地を歩き回って、目に付いたものを何でも撮ってみています。
最近は、ときどきモノクロ表現を試しています。

I don't have to take a trip around the world or be on a yacht in the Mediterranean to have happiness. I can find it in the little things, like looking out into my backyard and seeing deer in the fields.

Jackson Denton served in Company M, 10th Kentucky Cavalry. He filed a claim for a pension on December 4, 1891 from Alice, Texas County, Missouri. He said that he was born in Cocke County, Tennessee on July, 4th, 1839 and married Nancy Ann Ragsdale of Hopewell Springs, Monroe County, TN in 1869. He received a pension of $8.00 from date of filing and this was increased to $10.00 in 1903, then $12.00, $15.00, and $22.50 per month from April 4, 1915. He died Nov. 28, 1916.
