1 minute of silence for Mitch Henriquez who lost his life while being detained by police last weekend.
The protest quickly spiraled out of control and rioting ensued. I can still hear heli's circling my neighbourhood

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.

There's not too many of these neon "Martinizing" signs left. I used to see them all over, now, it's a rarity for one to be spotted.
I am a time traveler hailing from the past, journeying through time at a remarkable pace of 60 seconds per minute.
With the shadows lengthening by the minute, 66725 Sunderland and 66719 Metroland take the Soham line at Ely Dock Jn., working the last leg of the Norfolk railhead treatment train, 3S01 08.51 Stowmarket DGL - Stowmarket DGL via Diss, Cromer, Norwich, Acle, Great Yarmouth, Reedham, Theford, Ely, and Bury St. Edmunds.
I'd been working in Ely and, with the weather forecast being for cloudless skies all day, had taken my camera with me - probably for the last time until next March. I'd originally planned to go to Manea for some more close-up pictures of the semaphores (including one looking towards Ely, which I'd so far failed to get in sun), but to do those shots requires the pole to be extended close to its full height - and I thought it slightly too windy.
So I came here instead, arriving just in time for 4L13 (ex-Hams Hall) - which I thought was going to stop to allow 4E20 (to Masborough) to come across the single line from Soham, but I realised too late that it was running straight through (as booked) and wasn't ready... but it had no containers at the front, and the copious loco exhaust "blew down", and would have spoiled the shot. But 4L38 (ex-East Midlands Gateway) was running very late and wasn't far behind; it had DB red 66086 on the front and plenty of containers, and made a much better picture.
DCR's 56103 was at March on a VSTP Chaddesden - Brandon working (empty boxes for Saturday's sand to Ravenhead), having been put in there at lunchtime because Freightliner had earlier run a train to Brandon and it was still unloading; it wasn't late, but the schedules clashed - badly! The empties from Brandon set off on time, not long after I arrived here, and once they'd cleared Ely West Curve the DCR train was allowed to continue on its way - four and a quarter hours late! I rushed round to a spot I'd never used on Ely West Curve, arriving there just in time to set up (it was sheltered, so I could use the pole), but only when I got there did I realise the sun was straight down the track (the shot I'd seen had been taken in June, when the sun was much further round at this time of day).
I then rushed back here for the RHTT, but needn't have worried too much as it is booked to be overtaken by an Ipswich-bound "FLIRT", and it did indeed stand time. But the shadows were getting longer as I waited, and I wasn't sure the back of the train would be shadow-free (it pretty much was - I've not removed any shadows from this image). But I had to use a 75mm equivalent lens in order to shoot past the shadow of the bridge.

I don't have the time to really write tonight, I have to run here in a moment to go teach a class and if I don't post this now it will be really late by the time I get the chance to post again.
I will say that my assignment I will be giving the class tonight will be to choose a location close to home, somewhere within say, a five minute walk, somewhere they could easily go to every day, and then go to that place as many times as they can this week and to make photos. The idea being that on the second, third, fourth or fifth trip to a spot you look at it differently. It is an exercising in learning how to see. This bridge is my spot. I go there again and again, reminding myself that every time I go to look at it with fresh eyes no matter how familiar it may seem... it is never really the same bridge. This practice has served me well over the years, hopefully it helps my students too.
P.S. Saw a short video on-line today about Abelardo Morell. Do your inner photographer a favor and look him up. He has been a favorite of mine for many years now but his more recent tent camera work is so intriguing.

This Union Oil Station was on the old Route 66 in Ludlow, California in 1985 when this photo was taken. Ludlow was bypassed by Interstate 40 and became a near-ghost town. The neighborhood also has an abandoned cafe, garage, stores and other buildings. This is another scanned slide from my attempt to archive my old photos.
Yesterday's Glorious sunset here in San Antonio, Texas. I took a wonderful series of this sunset, but decided to share with you all "The Last Minute" of this extraordinary sunset with such colors, shape and form. I hope you all enjoy it. !!!

View in large size for awesome details of this wonderful capture.
Waterfilm is a series filmed since 2012 based on the idea of filming with a freehand camera for a period of exactly one minute. This series illustrates the meditative qualities of water in an urban environment. It is my belief that the close observation of this essential element has the ability to influence our perceptions. Each film is intended to be a short meditation – take your time to feel it, but don’t swim away too far...

Rare was the day when I was working in intermodal that I didn't get to see the sunrise and the sunset on my way to/from work. But every once in a while you had a chance to take a 2 minute break from all the action and take a decent picture. S-OIGPTR getting ready to leave OIG.
Squeaking in at the last minute for our joint monthly project but the fact I managed to take this photo earlier today makes me so happy. A month ago, I really wasn't certain Flynn & Barney would ever be able to go outside for any kind of "walk" together.
We got Barney a buggy last week because although it's very important he moves & tries to practice walking as much as possible... there's a limit to how long I can hold his back end up, before my arms & back give up! I wasn't sure how he'd take to it but he actually seemed to immediately understand what - & who - the buggy was for, he asks to go in it & settles nicely (although we do have to zip the front up once we're moving, or he'll occasionally try to jump out - regardless of currently only having 2 working legs!).
Today was the first time Flynn's come out with Barney in the buggy. I had been rather nervous about if Flynn would worry about the weirdness of his "brother" being inside, or that he'd dislike the noise of the wheels etc. It turns out, Flynn was so overjoyed to be finally going OUT for a "walk" with Barney again, he didn't care! It was quite sweet - these two don't seem overly affectionate but Flynn was clearly delighted when he saw Barney would be accompanying us. They were both barking about how much fun it was as we went down the road! We didn't go far at all today but hopefully we can go a little further in future.
For those in the 52 WfDs group - my dear old Barney, who was in the group for a few years, before Flynn joined us, suffered from a spinal stroke at the end of May. It was a huge shock - the poor lad suddenly became paralysed in both his back legs. It's painless & he should hopefully regain some/most of his former mobility (the degree of recovery varies a lot between dogs) but it usually takes many weeks, or months to see significant improvement. Esp considering Barney's age (14.5yrs), he's doing so well. Initially both back legs were completely limp, unable to support any weight at all & lacking all feeling. A little over a month later, Barney's very, very nearly able to stand up unassisted & is getting close to doing a hobbled-y "walk" on grass - albeit with me supporting his back end. He's trying very hard!
While running some last minute Christmas errands (naturally) I caught wind of Grafton and Upton's GU-1 making some Christmas Eve deliveries. A quick detour from the errands found the crew in Hopedale, making their way back from Garelick Farms in Franklin.
The train is seen rolling towards Freedom Street, running push-pull with 4 empties sandwiched by their rebuilt GP9R #1751 and MP15AC #1501, both in new company colors.

day 23
*side note- these challenges are like a diary, each ring every day tells alot about what you were feeling that day, what you had to do, and what you had time for.
I'm looking forward to being able to look back and remember each day and the feelings I was
having while I made my pieces....
now only if i can find some more time to blog my creative jopurney(sounds foo-foo) as I go through this process with you all,
And "I KNOW" you all are feeling and learning similar great curious things about yourselves like me from participating in this challenge!
Pour vous réhabituer progressivement à sa douce chaleur par ces temps pluvieux, je vous offre ces quelques derniers rayons de soleil qui sont aussi bien souvent les plus INTENSES ! 😍

The galactic core area of the northern summer Milky Way over the Blakiston Valley and Blakiston Creek in Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta on a July night. Sagittarius is at left over Vimy Peak, with the bright Sagittarius Starcloud over the valley, with the Messier 6 and 7 star clusters low and left of centre. Scorpius with reddish Antares is at right. The pink Lagoon Nebula, M8, is at top, and the globular cluster M22 is at upper left. The dark Pipe Nebula is at top centre.
This is a blend of tracked exposures for the sky and untracked exposures for the ground: a stack of 4 x 2-minute tracked at f/2.8 and ISO 1600 for the sky, blended with a stack of 2 x 5-minute untracked at f/4 and ISO 1600 for the ground, with LENR on for reducing thermal speckling this warm night. A tracked 2-minute exposure through an Kase/Alyn Wallace Starglow filter adds the star glow effect. An additional 8-minute exposure at ISO 400 and f/8 taken early in the evening during blue hour adds some illumination to the distant mountains. However, the majority of the landscape comes from untracked exposures taken just before the tracked ones when the sky was dark, with illumination just from starlight with a more normal colour balance.
Forest fire smoke moving in added some haze and lowered contrast. The bright light is the Prince of Wales Hotel, and the light to the left is from the golf course clubhouse.
The sky tracker was the Star Adventurer Mini which worked perfectly. The camera was the Canon ESO Ra and lens the Canon 15-35mm RF at 35mm.
2-minute exposure of the clouds drifting above Duomo di Pisa and Torre Pendente.
Right after I set up my camera for this long exposure, the Sun hit a gap in the clouds casting this saturated red light on the Duomo and the tower, which was a nice bonus along with the already nice sky.

Hoping to retire early for the evening, Stormtrooper Bruce was still a little on edge wondering if "anyone" would show up at the last minute. Finally, letting his guard down, the universe had other plans for STB.
EE: Unka Dude! Unka Dude! It's me, Elliott the Engineer!
STB: Egads, it's about time! I've been expecting you since early this morning. Now here I am, trying to enjoy my evening meal, and you come exploding through my door.
EE: Oh, it's been an exhausting day. Everywhere I looked in my quarters was something that started with an "E." I never knew there were so many E examples!
STB: That's funny, because as I look around my quarters, I don't see a single thing that fits the bill.
EE: Well, now you have three. I narrowed it down to these - an egg, envelopes and elephants. I threw in extra ones for extra credit.
STB: Well, that explains a lot. Excellent choices, too, I might add.
EE: It was easy once I decided to eliminate all the enormous ones like Unka Pappy, since he's an Emperor, and the elevator was too heavy, and I have an end table but, well, again too heavy.
STB: Wait a second, I have two end tables, so I do have "E" things. And, look, electricity! It's shocking!
EE: You're so funny! But you're forgetting eyes, ears, end elbows!
STB: OK, that's enough! You've exceeded all my expectations. A great way to end the day. Your extra credits are well earned!
Oh, btw, those donuts you left yesterday were excellent!
