I had no intention or doing any shooting this particular morning. I had to drop off my truck for some routine service so instead of sitting around I took a stroll around downtown and the 10 Mile River and in the process noticed that the foliage was still surprisingly good at one of my favorite spots for photographing action on the Northeast Corridor. Given that there is little good foliage left around as a backdrop I figured it was worth a few frames. So after picking up the vehicle and first having breakfast I headed over to the inbound station platform for two trains before heading home to call it a night (err day).
First up was Wickford Junction bound Keolis/MBTA train 809 slowing for their station stop as they approach MP 197 on Track 3 of Amtrak's New Haven Line behind Wabtec rebuilt F40PH-3C 1061 originally built by EMD in 1987.
Just out of the frame at right center past signal for BORO interlocking, stands the old wooden tower that was known as SS165 in NH days. Allegedly constructed in 1898, it was relocated here when the NH undertook their massive grade separation project through town and built their two new stations between 1903 and 1906. This tower also holds the distinction of being the last in service on the corridor in MA, not closing down until 1993. Amazingly it survives a quarter century later despite regular reports of its imminent demise.

Threw a sickie from work yesterday with the intention of a wander around our fair city, well it was only a small white lie ;-)
I know that this view has been captured many times before, and by a few of my mates here on flickr…just had to put my own twist on though :-)
his hands adjust the dials like he’s setting the light itself — not just on his camera, but in the moment. shadows dissolve into thought, and silence turns tactile.

My intention was to produce the beautiful yellow blue combination. I planted the iris in the autumn when the aconites were underground so misjudged how far forward the latter were. There are more iris out of the picture. Either I will have to plant more of one kind or both or wait for them to multiply and intermingle which could take a long time.
Thank you to those who have made me their contact. Due to poor health, eye problems and low energy I regret I can't take on any new contacts but nearly always manage to reply to your comments. Please no more than 1 invite.
The intention had been to go for the shot looking down on Glenfinnan viaduct but we could hardly see it as the glen was shrouded in thick mist.Change of plan,we hoofed it to a spot higher up the bank and hoped for the best.62005 emerges into the sun,not sure exactly what Mr Hunt is gesturing to the gallery !!

My intention for the shot was to capture Mt. Shasta with elements of its surrounding the foreground. The goal was to create a sense of scale while providing a glimpse into what the life looks like in the foothills of a potentially active Volcano. I have seen MANY photographs of Mt. Shasta, but very few of them capture the surrounding elements to the extent I had envisioned. After driving around the mountain for 2 days, I finally located a potential spot I could shoot from. After speaking to the owner of the land, he agreed to let me photograph on his property, with the condition that I do not invite others to do the same. And this is the end result.
Intention: The Relief of Souls in Purgatory
“We pray that through the treasure of your Divine Son, and your own special merits and those of the saints, God may be mindful of our prayers on behalf of the suffering souls in purgatory and bring them into His Kingdom to love and serve Him forever.”
Our Lady of Fatima, Pray for us.

Wrapped in warmth, cut with intention. Fall never looked this sharp.

The Look:
Description Section:
There’s something about fall that makes me want to dress like a secret. The air gets crisp, the light turns honeyed, and suddenly I’m strutting down tram-lined streets like I’m the plot twist in someone else’s story.
The Tyla Dress by Lowen—fresh from the Dubai Event—is a masterclass in cutout confidence. Black, sculpted, and unapologetically bold, it’s the kind of piece that turns sidewalks into catwalks. I layered it with the Duda Shoulder Coat by Saudade, casually draped like I just stepped out of a Vogue editorial and into real life. The contrast of soft brown against sharp black? Iconic.
My Talia Tape-Ins by Royl (thank you, Dreamday Event—sponsored but obsessed) are giving length, volume, and that “I woke up like this, but with a glam team” energy. They cascade like velvet and catch the light like secrets.
The Lekka Earrings by Yorke add just the right amount of glint—big hoops, big attitude. And the H.O.J Handbag by Ruchell? She’s structured, branded, and ready to hold everything but my patience.
It was not really my intention to take photos to print or expose. I just went for a spin to test my new camera and lens in somewhat more complicated conditions than usual. And I did not go very far.
This is Llinars del Valles as seen from the roundabout before entering the city. As is logical and normal, it is absolutely forbidden to stop without a serious reason.
After a couple of laps to the roundabout to check that there was no danger for me or the others, I decided to make this photo that I had wanted to do for many years but I had never dared to stop the car in the middle of the circulation.
I went fast, just stop, go down, shoot and go whistling because it was not my intention to disturb anyone. But it was my picture pending.
Llinars is no architectural wonder. Perhaps with daylight what most stands out is the Montseny massif in the background. And that is what I tried to reflect in this image, although with the blue hour and its peaks with very little snow are not the most auspicious time.
The edition has not been easy, because with an iso so high, the amount of grain marring the image much, but at the end, has not been bad.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
En realidad no era mi intención hacer fotos para imprimir o exponer. Simplemente salí a dar una vuelta para probar mi nueva camara y objetivo en condiciones algo más complicadas de lo habitual. Y no fui muy lejos.
Esto es Llinars del Valles visto desde la rotonda que hay antes de entrara a la ciudad. Como es logico y normal, está absolutamente prohibido parar sin un motivo grave.
Después de dar un par de vueltas a la rotonda para comprobar que no habia ningún peligro ni para mi, ni para los demás, me decidí a hacer esta foto que llevo muchos años queriendo hacerla pero nunca me habia atrevido a parar el coche en medio de la circulación.
Fui rápido, apenas parar, bajar, disparar y salir pitando pues no era mi intención molestar a nadie. Pero era mi foto pendiente.
Llinars no es ninguna maravilla arquitectónica. Quizá con luz diurna lo que mas resalta es el macizo del Montseny al fondo. Y eso es lo que traté de reflejar en esta imagen, aunque con la hora azul y sus cumbres con muy poca nieve no sean el momento mas propicio.
La edición no ha sido facil, pues con un iso tan alto, la cantidad de grano afeaba mucho la imagen, pero al final, no ha quedado mal.
My original intention was to make a komekuburo, a Japanese-style drawstring bag with tabs along the top for the drawstring, to use when I need to carry my lunch. After I'd pieced and quilted my sides, I realized the darn thing was going to be ridiculously large for a lunch bag. Also, the top of a komkuburo doesn't completely close, so I hastened over to Ayumi's lunch bag tutorial for a save:
ayumills.blogspot.com/2010/08/tutorial-lunch-bag.html
Using her super easy to follow directions, I added a band around the top and a drawstring cover, and now I love it! It's weird and quirky, but so fun!
It's 9" (22.5 cm) on a side and 10.25 (26 cm) tall.
My intention was to sneak as close as possible to her to get a clear shot. Then she popped out from behind the tree and had her eye right on me, and I thought, "OOPS! I've been spotted!"

I had every intention of going out to capture shots from the snowfall we are getting but it is snowing so hard that driving is actually a scary event. This park is just down the road from where I live and when got (only) this far, I decided not to venture much further. We have had over 8 inches, probably more like 10 now and the streets are terribly slick. My traction control kicked in more times in this little trip than its ever kicked in since I got my car 3 years ago......lol. I am not afraid to drive in snow, but there is a limit. I decided to be realistic about a photo shoot outdoors today and head back home. At least I got this shot. When the snow stops and they can catch up on plowing the roads, i will head back out. For the record, this is my 1st shot with the new lens :-)
My intention was to prepare many times longest exposures, but clouds interfered the session soon.

some days i get caught in the externals--do people like my photos? is this shot good enough to post? (and the ensuing doubt attack.) but i always find my way back. back to my heart's intention: i photograph because it makes me feel alive; it allows me to view the world in new ways. and that's the only thing that matters.
A sunny Saturday morning and decision made to head over to the delights of the WCML.....intention - to hopefully capture a lovely 86 on passenger duty, something I hadn't had the pleasure of for quite some time.
Things didn't start well, a check on RTT before leaving home revealed a late departure from Euston. Oh well I thought, gives me time to check out the location and catch some freight workings....but had Les failed??..... Arrival at the my intended A51 location, it revealed the delights of RTT were still accessible on my phone....great! A quick check and the intended tour was 110 late......oh dear!
After spending an hour alongside the A51 (and a few freights, Pendos and Voyagers later) . I decided to head to pastures new to capture the 86. There was a freight due soon, the intended victim, a Dollands Moor to Ditton Foundry freight. Before I left, RTT showed I had enough time.... When I rucked up.....no internet...totally blind...oh the joy....we've all been there so many times....
Drove to the intended location, parked up, and decided naahh, so I scrubbed that location and decided to head back a little way along the road I had just driven..... although I first had to run back to the car, which I think raised suspicion with a local, who proceeded to hang around and watch my movements for a while (sir I hope I provided entertainment??). Anyway, weekly exercise over, car found, started up, and driven...but arrival at this (final) location coincided with the passing of the aforementioned freight!!...damn!! Not to worry the main reason for heading over to rural South Staffs was the 86.
But.....no internet, much hanging around.....wondering.....where is it? Is it still running? Many test shots on Pendos and Voyagers later....it appeared, unannounced, Duff hauled. After spending a good 45 minutes poised and ready for action, and shot testing on Pendo after Pendo, one final test shot proved to be my downfall. I was reviewing the shot and checking that my limbs still moved as the Duff appeared......I was not ready, not poised at the critical moment. Oh well!!!...note to self, get fitter and learn to stay poised for longer.....stop chimping at test shots!

I decided the intention of shooting the Lions peaks, but the lighting was not good for this. So I went to my old hood, which was East Vancouver. I have always wanted to get a decent shot of the East Van Cross, but never got anything I liked. I found it difficult getting the context of East Vancouver, which is know to be tough and gritty. I think this shot hits the nail on the head. While the cross does not dominate this 3 exposure pano, and it does not look that large, the fact is that this illuminated cross is 57 feet tall, including the base and the metal post it is hung on.
My intention was going to Bow Lake but after seeing such colors, I had to stop, also realizing that I was late for Bow Lake. It turned out that Bow Lake was cloudy that early morning so stopping here was a blessing.
My intention was to build a mountain of chocolate chips (used in baking) but the little chips kept falling off. I glued the base layer to some paper and managed to build a mountain of sorts with white chips to represent the snow covered peak.
Paramore - Misery Business
VERSE ONE:
I'm in the business of misery let's take it from the
top
She's gotta body like an hour glass that's ticking
like a clock
it's just a matter of time before we all run out
but when I thought he was mine she caught him by the
mouth
(PT.2):
I waited eight long months she finally set him free
I told him I couldn't lie he was the only one for me
two weeks and we had caught on fire
she's got it out for me but i wear the biggest smile
CHORUS:
No, I never meant to brag... but i got him where i
want him now.
Oh it was never my intention to brag... to steal it
all away from you now
But God does it feel so good cause I got him where I
want him now
if you could then you know you would
cause God it just feels so...
It's just feels so good.
VERSE TWO:
Second chances they don't ever matter, people never
change
Once a whore you're nothing more and you know that
will never change
and about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have
exchanged.
sorry honey but i passed it up, now look this way
(PT. 2):
Well, there's a million other girls that do it just
like you
looking as innocent as possible to get to who they
want and what they like
it's easy if you do it right
well i refuse, i refuse, i refuse.
CHORUS:
No, I never meant to brag... but i got him where i
want him now.
Oh it was never my intention to brag... to steal it
all away from you now
But God does it feel so good to take it all away from
you now
if you could then you know you would
cause God it just feels so...
It's just feels so good.
BRIDGE:
I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving...
My intention on this day was to capture the sun shining on some trees against a background of a dark sky, the contrast between these two sources of light is stunning but as I began to set up for the shot it started to rain and I was perfectly positioned to capture this fantastic rainbow. This was shot using my trusty Sigma EX 10-20mm DC HSM lens. Please enjoy the view and feel free to comment if you wish.
Our intention this particular morning was to get out at first light to find some Pronghorn Antelopes. So we started our route just before 6 a.m. We stopped and didn't expect to see this couple right next to the road on Marble Hot Springs rd. They never flew off and just paced back and forth. I've never had much luck getting close shots of them until this trip. This shot was taken around 6:20 a.m. the light was to die for!
Photo of an autumn evening with fog on the Ebro River, as it passes through the city of Zaragoza, Aragon, Spain.
The so-called "Puente de Piedra" (Stone Bridge) is partially visible.
The current bridge began to be built in 1401, on the ruins of a previous bridge from the time of the Roman Empire and a medieval bridge from the Muslim era.
Several reconstructions have been made of this bridge, such as the one after the flood of 1643.
On July 9, 1813, the Napoleonic troops abandoned Zaragoza, thus ending the long period of occupation. With the intention of delaying the Spanish troops in their pursuit, the French army blew up the northern arch of the Stone Bridge.
The last remodeling dates back to 1991, when four lions (a symbol that appears on the coat of arms of Zaragoza) were added, two of them at each end of the bridge.
Its total length is 225 meters. (Source: Wikipedia)
NIEBLA EN EL RIO EBRO, ZARAGOZA, ARAGON, SPAIN, 2024
Foto de una tarde otoñal con niebla en el río Ebro, a su paso por la ciudad de Zaragoza, Aragón, España.
Se ve parcialmente el llamado Puente de Piedra.
El puente actual se empezó a construir en 1401, sobre las ruinas de un puente anterior de la época del imperio romano y de un puente medieval de la época musulmana.
De este puente sehan hecho varias reconstrucciones como la que se hizo tras la riada de 1643.
El 9 de julio de 1813 las tropas napoleónicas abandonaban Zaragoza poniendo así fin al largo periodo de ocupación. Con intención de retrasar a las tropas españolas en su persecución, el ejército francés voló la arcada norte del Puente de Piedra.
La última remodelación data de 1991, cuando se añadieron cuatro leones (símbolo que aparece en el escudo de Zaragoza) dos de ellos en cada extremo del puente.
Su longitud total es de 225 metros. (Fuente: Wikipedia)
My intention this morning was to shoot the sunrise over a foggy valley near my house. But when I got to the spot I had planed to shoot there was no fog and the access gate was locked. So decided right quick to head to Silver Creek in Madison County, maybe if I'm lucky I may catch some colors in the sky..... there was some really nice colors up in the high clouds but alas I was miles away from the cascades and stuck on I-75...... Scott county is further then 20 minutes away...... But it still was nice to be back to this beautiful creek on this morning.
My intention had been to make some images on the Cornish coast at Gunwalloe, with sun setting as the tide swept over the rocks on the beach. However, I had left things too late following a family day out, and the sun was already long gone by the time I parked up my missus' unwieldy Renault Scenic Megane at what I thought was the right location. However, as I hot footed it to the beach, I found myself in the wrong place! I was faced with a featureless beach and not a lot else - apart from this little white boat. Fumbling around in my camera bag for my hard edge ND grads, I managed to stack a couple and lined up this composition using the boat as foreground interest. It all looks perfectly serene, but I was out of breath and could feel the sweat trickling down my back!
Intention/tech: The goal in this image was to isolate the dogs face, and capture the texture and dogs face. I shot this at f/5.6 at 1/250. Tripod.
Reference: Lesson 19, Duchemin asks what does the image gain without color. It gains a story and gives complete detail to the dog.
Outcome: The image is giving a story, the light is perfect as well for B/W.
Edits: Added a levels adjustment, added a B/W adjustment layer, cropped, finsihed in ACR, took highlights down.
