Utilizing power on both ends, the local based out of Janesville works it way towards South Beloit after switching DeLongs in Clinton WI. The power for today is a trio of GP60s with a patched SSW unit leading the train.

A local heads back to Carrollton on the old Central of Georgia, having just crossed the former Southern Birmingham-Atlanta main in downtown Bremen.
You can get specialty cuts here and many European goodies to accompany your meat purchase. Another nice local store, but meat is expensive. However, for those special occasions and hard to find cuts, this is the place to shop.
I witnessed a dog walk straight up to this snake & sniff it.
The snake didn't seem to bothered and just slithered off slowly, no aggression what so ever.
I did tell the dog owners to put the dog on a lead & stick to the paths but of course they wouldn't.
Fascinating & nerve-racking to watch the interaction.
Oatman, Arizona
Wild burros
As pack animals, they could handle heavy loads for provisions, ore, and equipment needed by the miners. The “wild” burros frequenting the streets of Oatman are direct descendants of the gold miners who set the animals free when the mines shut down.
Sunset from the King Coal Highway in Mingo County, West Virginia - roughly 20 minutes from my home. This area is reclaimed mine lands and in addition to the new roadway, the county's newest high school was recently built up here.
Further development is planned, but for now, there's nothing but beautiful views for miles around. Thanks for taking a look and have a great day!
In our village there is a tradition on april 30 set up the maypole at the fairground. It is there all year, but on this day he is newly decorated. He is very high - as you can see, higher than the trees around and so he is visible in the hole village. On the day of the Maypole putting, a big celebration with lantern procession, brass band and a big fire takes place. The village's population meets and celebrates the end of winter. Today it is a stormy day - but our local landmark is deeply rooted in our tradition and in the ground ;-)
BR(W) Hawksworth "Modified Hall” 4-6-0 no.6990 ‘Witherslack Hall’ passes under Beeches Road Bridge with the 09:00 Loughborough-Quorn & Woodhouse train.
More evidence of a new SD60s for all the locals policy (or "older 6 axle power") is found at Bradley. The Rhinelander (and Park Falls) local power is parked for the weekend. The good sized cut of boxcars would be brought to Rhinelander, for storage presumably, where they filled a whole track and then some in the previously vacant yard. As for what happened to the nice set of geeps that formerly held down this job, that's a good question. Hopefully there isn't a purge of four axles in the offing. May 25, 2019.
OMG not in a flea market !!
Came across these strange products at the flea market in Serikin, Sarawak, Borneo. Never came across my mind that people buy and use products like “Gambier or Gambir Sarawak” and animal parts to improve libido ( as claimed by the local and Indonesian sellers) at a flea market. This particular stall specializes in Gambir Sarawak, crocodile penis and home made creams from plants and animals to alleviate premature ejaculation.
A project I've been playing with in my head for a while is how to best shoot my local woodland. It's only a small patch and the trees are quite young so it can seem a bit chaotic. However, its full of wildflowers and is well-lit both in the morning and evening so it has real potential for some beautiful shots. I love using my Lensbaby Twist optic to shoot woodland and I think it really works with the complicated compositions I'm going to have to work with at this location. So here is the first image of a hopefully successful project to capture this woodland through the seasons using a single lens.
