Someone's gotta keep things running...

Sous une belle lumière de début de soirée, la G1206 500 1732 revêtant la livrée du loueur chinois MRCE, et louée à VFLI, assure le train 452778 Hausbergen - Creutzwald, servant à acheminer des wagons pour les ateliers de maintenance situés là-bas.

 

MA100 452778 Hausbergen - Creutzwald | 11.06.2021

Some hours into enjoying this famous view of the Watchman from the roadway bridge over the Virgin River--a vigil made even more enjoyable in this case by many other waiting photographers in a conversational mood--we found just a little pink breaking through the blue hour after sunset, Zion National Park, Utah.

 

I'm sure the lot of us waiting on the bridge that evening all hoped the clouds would blaze with color before sunset as beautiful golden hour light still washed the west face of the Watchman, though the highlight of the show turned out to be much less dramatic as you can see, but today is a good day to step back from the photographer's sometimes high maintenance hopes of nature and to just be thankful for the health and opportunity to enjoy and share some of these beautiful vistas from time to time however nature paints them on any given day.

 

This is one of those images that's likely really suitable only for smaller format viewing such as here on flickr since it has some technical issues stemming in part from the late hour long exposure with the pretty heavy traffic that time of day rolling over the bridge not more than a few feet from our tripods, but I wanted to share a glimpse of the beauty here regardless.

 

Thanks for visiting.

One year ago today, as I upload this. The fireman of 'JS' 2-8-2 No.8081 of the Sandaoling Mining Railway was attempting to plug a steam leak in the cylinder gland of his ailing locomotive at Xuanmeichang Washery on 20th January 2016. It really did seem like a 'make do and mend' operation, with no back-up heavy maintenance facilities to call upon, rather akin to the final days of steam on BR. The long journey back home after this day's photographic session had a great bearing on my calling it a day on photographing steam in China, even though sights such as this I imagine are still just possible as I write this.The thought of making a long return journey to north west China, only to find the steam railway operation no longer in operation is just too much of a risk to contemplate!

Amtrak GP38-3 720 rests at Wilmington, still wearing Amtrak's grey livery. Originally a Clinchfield GP38, this engine is a world away from the Appalachian coal fields for which it was built. (Taken on railroad property during a guided tour.)

Nearly every flying insect will do some preflight maintenance -clean their eyes, wings, and antenna before take off. This Sweat Bee was so comfortable with me that he did his preflight maintenance while sitting on my finger. They are still sleeping in my Geranium flowers, but now two leaves have formed a clam shell and they are snoozing in the middle of it.

 

Possibly Halictus sexcinctus.

 

Tech Specs: Canon 80D (F14, 1/250, ISO 200) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (set to over 2x) + a diffused MT-26EX-RT with a Kaiser adjustable flash shoe on the "A" head (the key), E-TTL metering, -1 FEC). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held. In post I used Topaz Sharpen AI and Clarity in that order.

It is currently the middle of the "off season" for the Rocky Mountaineer. Three of the units are over in North Yard, likely waiting for some maintenance to be done before the new season kicks off next April.
