A last minute change in the running season saw the movement of 'The Jacobite' stock pushed forward a week, and how lucky that turned out to be.

 

Glorious sunshine on the top of the moors, Riley 5's No. 44871 and 45407 storm up the remaining gradient towards the summit at Corrour.

After being taken off of a central Florida bound intermodal train at the last minute, CSXT 4720 rides along with CSXT 5409 up to Dinsmore lite engine move. Where they would shove into Duval intermodal ramp in Jacksonville and have CSXT 4720 trail on Ohio bound train I142.

I was still very much in my thoughts in macro photography (previous picture with the earwig) that I almost forgot that I wanted to take a picture of the beautiful sunset. Luckily I had only a few steps to the trees. Handheld.

as so often in the several stages of a sunrise there is often a time window of 5 to 8 mins.and in this morning just in the horizon the color appeared and for 1 or 1.5 minutes the clouds got a color. gives you with a exposure time of 15 seconds a maximum of 3 shoots. 15 seconds for exposure and a other 15 second to process it. if you dont get your shoot might you will never have the chance again. to say shortly later all was grey only.

Sunset this evening was mostly colorless until very late, when an unexpected band of deep purple/ magenta drifted across the clouds and then quickly disappeared. The peaks are part of the Continental Divide, delineating the Pacific (far side) and Atlantic (this side) drainages, mirrored in the very still Red Rock Lake of the southern Rocky Mountains. (iii)

I always enjoy walking around the rocks and exploring the shoreline of Convict Lake. Wait a minute, it was here that I slipped and ended up submerged in the lake with my camera a couple of years ago! So I suppose I should qualify that statement as "typically" instead of "always." I am also grateful that bad memories tend to fade faster than the good ones!

A 17 minute single frame exposure of the quirkily shaped lighthouse at Dovercourt. Taken just after sunrise on a beautiful summer morning, exposures of this length are usually a one shot deal – in most cases there’s not enough time for a repeat performance if you mess it up. And so with that, it pays to ensure that the things which you can control are, well….contolled. Such as the focus and the tripod position. There’s nothing worse than nearing the end of a very long exposure to find that the incoming tide has suddenly eaten away your sandy foundations and tumbled your kit into the water. Although this does result in some entertainingly colourful words. But one thing you really can’t control are other people. Specifically ones with dogs. And it seems that no matter how empty the beach is when you first unpack your camera, just as soon as you press bulb mode a hairy ball of trouble appears, all wagging tail and excited dribbling. Now don’t get me wrong- I love dogs but I’ve never understood their need to mark anything which sticks out of the ground with their scent. I mean, I don’t do it, and neither do you. Probably. So rather than a relaxing experience during which I could have smoked 3 cigarettes (if I partook in that habit, which I don’t) or maybe listened to some Pink Floyd, it becomes a frantic game of siege during which you have to gently shoo the offending canine away whilst pretending to smile. On the other hand, dogs are far easier to deal with than curious people, so maybe I shouldn’t complain.

Arcade & Attica #113, a GE 80 Toner, hauls loads from the B&P interchange through downtown Arcade NY. 65 Toner #112 is pushing on the rear. Both of these locomotives have since been sidelined from freight service with the railroad's new-used RS3M from the WNYP.

 

My decision to make a day trip up here was very last minute, and it payed off well with a great day and friendly gents up in the cab and on the ground.

She is almost our backyard, a minute walk from home.

 

Early in the morning I had a walk along the shore, the slow rise of the Sun ... was amazing.

 

Happy birding 🌊

I was supposed to go to Montreal today but the ceiling was to low for the plane to land. So, back home with a snap of Flea to keep the project on track.

At Manning Park BC. It takes about 20 minutes to walk around the whole lake, hence its name.

La chiamano Golden Hour, l'ora d'oro, per via della luce che al tramonto o all'alba crea quella magnifica atmosfera, tanto cara i fotografi ed ai romantici.

Io dico di più: secondo me, quella luce perfetta dura solo un minuto

Sunset didn't look like it was going to happen last night. so instead of walking along to Dunstanburgh Castle I decided to break out the big stopper at Craster Harbour!

I love how the magic of digital technology can create what the mind's eye can "see". For more than a decade, I have wanted to capture a meet at this location, between a Union Pacific's LUL41 local and a UTA commuter rail train. The location is in Orem, Utah at "Lakota Junction". The opportunity presented itself on Monday, but the timing was off, by only four minutes. Queue the magic of Adobe, helping create in a composite image what time would not allow.

We had rain and overcast conditions the whole day yesterday... but we got three minutes of great light at sunset.

 

Fortunately I was in the right place at the right time to be able to capture it... in the middle of a wheat field, on a farm near Durbanville.

One minute I'm peering in through the broken entry door, trying to make sense of the shadows within. Next thing I know I'm inside, my mind racing with the visuals of this shattered old house. It's a lot to take in, being inside a place like this. Part of me wants to pause and take in the environment; another part of me is impatient and wants to start shooting immediately. Everywhere I turn there's another incredible photo opportunity. So for the entirety of my stay here, my mind is switching back and forth, composing and taking photos, but wondering what is this or that, how did it get like this or that; who lived here; and the odd guiltiness about occupying someone's living space even though no one has lived here in years and never will again. Eventually I duck back through the passage into daylight and all of this mental commotion recedes. Only then do I realize the full extent of my immersion into this place. Perhaps an hour has passed during which I have thought of nothing else. Like I said, it's a lot to take in.

A last-minute flurry of snow in Cumbria on December 25th meant the UK officially enjoyed a white Christmas. The scene in London on Christmas morning was one of rain and icy wind but, even in the absence of snow, the conditions across the West End had a moody and photogenic quality that made it a lot of fun to shoot.

 

The billboard lights at Piccadilly Circus were recently switched back on after being renovated throughout most of 2017, and with the streets almost empty on the quietest day of the year, it was possible to walk into the middle of the normally frenetic roads and to photograph a vantage point that included the lights reflected in the rain-soaked streets.

 

This image is a blend of several exposures, taken using a miniature tripod and with the camera a few inches off the ground. Even on Christmas morning, the traffic was steady enough to require returning to safety on the pavement and then going back to the middle of the road to continue shooting, capturing the details that I wanted several minutes apart and then manually aligning the exposures in Photoshop to produce the finished result. It was important to me to capture the Coca-Cola logo among the billboard's rotating brands as this has been a staple of the display since the 1950s, as well as a composition that would feature one car and one person, which I felt would create a sense of depth within the image and complete the scene.

 

Once the various elements had been blended, I used luminosity masks to protect the highlights in the billboard and to recover detail in the shadows, leaving the midtones intentionally muted as I was aiming to convey the cold early-morning atmosphere. The colour cast had a cold tint straight out of camera, but I used Curves and Colour Balance adjustments to enhance the blues in the shadows, as well as a Colour Lookup set to Soft Light and using the Moonlight preset. After this, the colour-grading process was mostly a case of fine-tuning to achieve the right shade of red in the Coca-Cola logo and the right balance between blue and magenta on the roads.

 

Setting adjustments inside Nik's Silver Efex Pro to Luminosity, I selectively increased the structure within the reflection and the buildings to give them more definition, while lowering the structure along the road in the foreground, where it seemed like a softer finish would prevent the gritty detail from potentially becoming a distraction. Finally, inside Colour Efex Pro, I used sparing amounts of the Low Key and Glamour Glow filters for a dark and slightly ethereal finish, portraying the tone of a usually bustling part of the city which, except for the occasional person and car, felt as if it had been abandoned.

With seconds to spare I managed to catch CP 8830 leading a train with six other dead units through Frank Slide.
