The Silver Falls Loop is a notable trail in Mt. Rainier National Park. Aside from the falls and river, it features a traverse of a wonderful forest.

A series of images taken yesterday at the Nottingham’s water sports centre
where the International Freestyle canoe world championships are being held this week.
The event is free for spectators to attend and yesterday I was welcomed into the events
official photographers’ enclosure, so I made the most of my opportunity, hence six images
And there may be more to follow this coming week.

Soybean Looper (Chrysodeixis includens) – Hodges#8890
These moths were all over the flowers at Cape May Point State Park and the Meadows. Despite their numbers, they were pretty difficult to photograph since they rarely stopped moving for long and tended to hover for nectaring rather than land.

Toy Train And Memories From Queen of The Hills – Darjeeling!
The Diesel Toy Train at Batasia Loop(Scenic point) chugs it way on .
Darjeeling exemplifies the quintessential hill station developed by the British .This place is known for its unique uphill train track, plus gardens & a monument to Indian soldiers.The Queen of the Hills as Darjeeling is popularly called, is located in the Lesser Himalayas at an altitude of 6710 ft.
With 40 loads in town, the Port Harbor Job rolls around one the two different loops that the railroad uses to shuffle cars around the Port. This was part of a 70 unit grain train that was delivered to the PHRR to be unloaded here in Granite City and transferred to barge, which is right behind me. The crew ill pull clear of two crossings, tie the 2758 down and then head back to the shop area to grab the MP15 number 1296 to spot the other cut.

An eastbound UP Stack Train enters the famous Williams Loop on the ex Western Pacific Railroad. The WP constructed the loop so trains would experience a steady 1% clime to Beckworth Pass and the crest of the Sierra.
UP 4686 leads a long southbound intermodal train around Tehachapi Loop. At the time Walong siding still existed at the loop. Today this view would include a second main track (Main 2) where the access road is located to the right of the train. This effectively eliminated Walong siding and replaced it with two main tracks through this area.

One of Amtrak's now-gone HHP-8s, recently arrived from New York, takes its train around the turning loop near South Station in Boston.
Just south of Park City, UT is the Alpine Loop, Miles of trees and especially Aspen groves. A must see when in the Park City area.
Yes, I was at the Roskilde Airshow in August. Lots of planes and cool displays. This was one of the better ones. The German Air Force Airbus did a loop, not a complete one but a backside loop...like! Took a series of shots of the loop and have put it together here in a slightly compressed form.
It is a large, heavy aircraft and the fact that the pilots did a loop at a relatively low altitude in front of an audience of several thousand was nothing short of impressive in my eyes.
The pilots of course did more than just the loop, among other things they landed the plane in less than 200 meters and with everything together the display showed enormous skill on the part of the pilots, but also an unusually agile and easy-to-handle aircraft for its size.
Impressive!
The Cygnus Loop
50+ hours of integration time. 28 different image panels. 3 years in the making!
Found directly overhear in mid to late summer in midnorthern latitudes, the Cygnus Loop spreads its gassy tendrils across the sky. It can be found in the dusty lanes of the Milky Way just by the wing of Cygnus, the swan, glowing in various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. The nebula complex is located about 2500 LY from Earth and spans 130LY and contains several named "objects" like the Eastern Veil (Witch's Broom). Pickering's Triangle, and the Western Veil. These gassy wisps are all that remain of a star that went supernova about 21000 years ago, spreading its enriched guts across the galaxy.
The bulk of this project was shot in the summer of 2019. I've now revisited with fresh eyes, new tools, and an improves post processing skillset. I've added more data to it than the original, going back and finding other images I'd previously shot of various parts of the nebula, and integrated them into this new image. This image combines nearly 50 hours of integration time with over 20 individual panels to complete the mosaic. The result is a large 56 Megapixel size image of one of the largest deep sky objects in our night sky.
