a snowfull day
it's raining crystals from the clouds
a winter's spray, dark moody, proud
loud listening quietness and no doubt
a day so very well
to take a last long walk about
I believe that this is I-35 heading south towards Lewisville, Texas. Odd numbers on the Interstate System are heading north and south, while even numbers are running east and west. The American highway system may have its faults, and some countries may have superior technology, but the American highways produced a fantastically mobile population, and a population that takes that mobility for granted. The system was promised at the 1939 World's Fair, and put in place during the Eisenhower Years of the 1950's. This shot comes from a bicylce trip a friend of mine and I took to the southern part of the county. I had a desk job, and I needed the exercise. Once I switched to a physical labor job, I was more likely to stay in bed on my days off. Note that we are on the access road to the side of the main highway. We weren't going to compete with all those cars on their own turf.

ATSF 92 leads V-PESR6-09 eastbound through the 'street canyons' of Kansas City just east of Union Station. What was once four mainlines through the area was reduced to two. Traffic levels in the 1990s prompted a third mainline to be added.
After holding for NJ Transit train #75 to head west ahead, NS train 066 begins its trip towards Harriman, NY with Union Pacific's Veterans unit in the lead of a 9 car OCS set. The New York skyline provides a nice backdrop, with uptown to the left including the Empire State Building and the Freedom Tower dominating the Lower Manhattan end to the right.
Here, another picture of a train in a snowy city. This time, when leaving downtown, the train is passing through a more decayed area. The picture was made by Midjourney version 3.
It wasn't speed that Hiawatha was used to but Lake States train 12 is blowing past the boarded up depot in an hurry on August 8, 1987 at Rudyard. The 187 and 4232 have 31 cars of mainly newsprint and are kicking along at slightly over the authorized 40mph on the Soo Sub. In a couple hundred feet the train will slam over the Pine River bridge and lean into the sharp curve at the west end of the bridge while the hogger lays on the horn for the Highway 40 crossing. I'm getting all nostalgic but I sure miss the SOO, even this version of it. Hard to believe this was 31 years ago.
this is probably the last photo from my foggy day project and the rest of the photos were posted few months ago and I hope that you like this one
note: the sharpness isn't that great because of the fog itself

The use of the snoot underwater opens up a wide range of lighting possibilities, leaving the final result to your creativity and technique.
This cheeky little blenny was just poking its head out of its rock shelter, so I was able to isolate it well with the snoot.

La utilización del snoot bajo el agua, abre un gran abanico de posibilidades en la iluminación, dejando a tu creatividad y técnica el resultado final.
Este pequeño y atrevido blenio solo asomaba su cabeza de su refugio en la roca, por lo que pude aislarlo bien con el snoot.

The Newquay branch unit sits stabled next to the main line awaiting its first run of the morning.
Took a day trip to Toronto, heading back to Ottawa! Love the architecture & roof tops on these beautiful buildings!
43004 'Caerphilly Castle' is seen leaving Taunton with the 2U30 1914 service to Cardiff Central 17/3/23.
This photo is from the stern, on the promenade deck, of a cruise ship. I was the only on there taking photos. The bars in the ship were packed and passengers were already buying thousands of dollars of jewelry. Cruise ships are a different world.
The colourful coats caught my eye as we were leaving Upton House last week on one of the foggy days we’ve had recently.
Happy New Year!

Clifton, Arizona, USA. Once a booming copper mining town but now mostly declining or already in decay and the majority of people and business have moved just up the road to Morenci. The Freeport McMoRan copper mine located in Morenci is one of the largest in the world
Cliff dwellings along the San Francisco and Gila Rivers are evidence of an advanced civilization that existed long before Caesar ruled Rome. Many specimens of pottery and stone implements are still to be found in these ancient dwelling places. In the mid-1500s, both Fray Marcos de Niza and Francisco Vasquez de Coronado passed through the area, following the San Pedro north to the Gila River. Geronimo was born in 1829 near the confluence of Eagle Creek and the San Francisco and Gila Rivers.
In 1856 the first mineral discoveries of the Morenci/Clifton area were found by California volunteers pursuing Apaches, and conflicts between the Apaches and advancing Anglo settlers touched off a 26-year-long war. Mining for gold and silver began in 1864, followed by copper in 1872, and the mine at Morenci quickly grew to become the largest copper producer in North America. Clifton's population ballooned from 600 in 1880 to 5000 by 1910, and it quickly earned its reputation as the wildest of the "Wild West" boomtowns. Neighboring Morenci was swallowed up by an open pit mine in the 1960s, but Clifton was preserved, and today Chase Creek Street is still graced with lovely Victorian-era buildings from the town's halcyon days as the place to quickly make and lose a fortune.
In 1983, Clifton survived two nearly fatal blows, first a nearly three-year-long strike that began on June 30, 1983. Then later that same year, on October 2, 1983, Tropical Storm Octave sent 90,900 cubic feet of water per second into the San Francisco River, which burst its banks, destroying 700 homes and heavily damaging 86 of the town's 126 businesses.
