Dirty window series trucks along.
The rain stopped falling moments before the train crossing the bridge with the humidity still clinging to it.
A typical back alley in Bangkok with the air-cons of all those many small 'apartments' sticking out. They decided to cover this alley with a roof, having a market underneath.

奥の巨大な斜張橋は1989（平成元）年に開通した横浜ベイブリッジ。
向かって左手前マンションビルの間に見える網目のような上部のデザインが特徴的なトラス橋は霞橋。イギリスで製作され1896（明治29）年に日本鉄道土浦線（現常磐線）隅田川橋梁として造られたが複線化に伴い架け替えられ1929（昭和4）年に川崎市と横浜市をつなぐ江ヶ崎跨線橋として部分的に再利用された。その後、老朽化のため2009（平成21）年撤去され、その際、早稲田大学創造理工学部の佐々木葉教授ら学識経験者が歴史的な土木構造物として横浜市に保存を要請し部材が市によって保管され2013（平成25）年にここ新山下の霞橋として再生された。
因みに両橋とも「土木学会田中賞」を受賞している。
The open grate steel bridge crossing the Mississippi River between DeSoto,WI and Lansing,Iowa. The open mesh decking of this type of bridge produces a unique sound as tires rumble or sing crossing it.

I squeezed in a ride to Nudgee Beach after work. Always good for the soul. And the thighs.
Similar to this, but more lighting was used for a different effect.
Also similar to this, but on a different bridge and different time of day.
I needed an excuse to play with my strobes at night.
I guess I'm easily amused.

Ponte Hercilio Luz.
The old bridge, built in 1926, every piece of steel brought from the US by boat, is stiil there.
We haven't been to Alaska for a bit so let's head back a half dozen years for one.
The railfan coveted three scheme lashup is a true treat and quite the rare event on the Alaska Railroad. In the decade I lived in Alaska I can count on one hand the number of times I got to photograph it happening. By this late date there were only three GP40-2s in the old 1970s black and gold scheme with the rest of the fleet wearing the current 'Baby Mac' paint and the only units left liveried in the 1980s 'Alaska Bold' scheme were GP38-2s that were mostly relegated to yard service in Anchorage and Fairbanks. But once in a while one would get out on the road such as happened on this picture perfect late winter day.
The geep trio are leading a 120N from Whittier to Anchorage seen emerging from the north end of the 13,338 ft long Anton Anderson Memorial Tunnel at MP F5.6 on the Alaska Railroad's Whittier Branch.
The tunnel which is the only land based access to the important port community of Whittier on Prince William Sound is a marvel of engineering. Originally built by the US Army and opened in 1943 it was converted to dual use more than two decades ago and is the longest shared highway/rail tunnel in North America and is essentially a 2.5 mile long grade crossing.
For those of you interested in learning more about this fascinating tunnel click here to visit the Alaska state DOT's official web site on the tunnel:

Looking upwards at "The Tallest Block on the Planet". These supertalls are currently under construction and will be, once completed, among the tallest buildings in the world ranging from 80 to 120 floors each.
