Dreimal in der Woche wird die Elbmarschbahn Winsen Süd-Niedermarschacht befahren, um die Chemische Fabrik Bruno Bock am Streckenende in Niedermarschacht mit chemischen Produkten zu versorgen.
Am Morgen des 18.02.2019 bespannte die Maschener Berglok 296 047 diesen Einzelwagenzug ER 53465 Maschen Rbf-Niedermarschacht. Am Empfangsgebäude des ehemaligen Bahnhofs Mover konnte diese Fahrt vom Deich des Ilmenau-Kanals fotografiert werden; Rund 70 Minuten Verspätung sorgten an dieser Stelle für das nötige Seitenlicht.
I’m sure you can tell, can you? It was very exciting on the day one of our trip. GM’s Renaissance Center is a magnificent structure that is impossible not to notice in downtown Detroit. My mind was going in to overdrive just thinking about the angles from where I can capture it. This was the first location from where I was able to frame it with the very interesting, single track encircling transportation services called “People mover”. What do you think?
The People Mover aka Tommorowland Transit Authority.
Not an easy shot to master. The track will move fast and slow at different times in the ride and about every 10 ft or so it seems to jump in the tracks.

I don't do much street/"social landscape" style shooting, but something about the lines and curves in this appeal ... it reminds me of something Punkroyaltiger would shoot ... at least, I hope she's not offended by the comparison.
Also, on further reflection, this is Jersey City Heights - not far from where I lived back when I was married and a rich sleek yuppie parody of myself.

Following this little Black and White Warbler around with my camera was quite a challenge. He (I think) was behaving more like a Nuthatch - going off in all directions up and down the trees, around the branches, upside down, and right side up. Fast mover is an understatement. As usual when I try for bird photos, I get lots of empty branches - but not this one.
It's a glorious spring morning at Davis Junction, as the IC&E 6416 west, shakes up the dust a little bit and putting on a fine show.

During my visit this year (Oct 2019), earth movers were busily working on new water impoundments along the Kern River Flood Canal just west of the Tule Elk State Natural Reserve near Tupman, California. The Kern River is usual dry with most of the water taken out of it updstream except in wet years that have high amounts of spring run off. The impounds at the end of the river along the flood canal allow for water storage during these wet years and, according to a geologist I talked to, needed groundwater recharge. The sizes of the equipment working on the project were impressive.
My KAP (Kite Aerial System) for the Nokia N8 (and probably other Symbian devices).
A rig is suspended on the line of a kite, and it holds an N8 phone (with a 12MP camera sensor). This phone can send live video to another N8 on the ground, which in turn controls the direction of the camera with accelerometers (you just tilt your phone to change the camera orientation).

Meu sistema de Fotografia Aerea com Pipa para o celular Nokia N8 (e provavelmente outros aparelhos Symbian).
Um berço, contendo um celular N8 (c/ câmera de 12MP) é preso à linha de uma pipa. O celular transmite vídeo em tempo real para outro N8 no chão, que por sua vez controla a direção da câmera através de acelerômetros (ou seja, basta mover o celular e a inclinação dele fará a câmera na pipa mover-se também).

"Cantar, é mover o dom
do fundo de uma paixão
Seduzir, as pedras, catedrais, coração
Amar, é perder o tom
nas comas da ilusão
Revelar, todo o sentido
Vou andar, vou voar, pra ver o mundo
Nem que eu bebesse o mar
Encheria o que eu tenho de fundo"

That's Allied moving for you... "the care-free movers" er I mean... "the careful movers." They destroyed a ton of my parents stuff... so this doesn't shock me. I'm actually surprised the furniture pads aren't flying out into traffic.
We spent some time downtown to work with lights and motion. As we waited for the people mover to pass this couple came up to ask what was going on. So I enlisted them as models under the light to add a human element and a bit of mystery to the shot. We all had a good laugh over it.

My girl moved away
Can't help but think it's something that I say that
Makes her flee my loving arms and smiling face
And moves to a place where nobody even lovingly says her name
While staying in Bozeman, MT for a night prior to partaking in a lengthy RV trip down to Yellowstone National Park, I awoke on the morning of Friday, July 22nd to a report about an extra train movement on the Montana Rail Link 2nd Subdivision. With the Residence Inn Bozeman motel virtually right next to the MRL’s mainline through town, a short walk over onto the N 19th Ave bridge was all that was needed to set up for the extra’s arrival at Bozeman.
At 08:35, a visible headlight and the distinct roar of twin 16-710-G3C-T2 prime movers indicated the presence of the extra, the MRL M GARLAU1 21. Having originated the night before at Garrison, MT, the 110 car manifest was an extra move out of the BNSF interchange yard in Garrison that connects with the BNSF Copper City Subdivision to Butte, MT. Supposedly this train was run in order to clear out traffic in said yard to keep traffic moving. The two SD70ACe’s up front, #MRL4406 and #MRL4405, were purchased and built new by EMD in 2014 for the railroad. With the MRL giving up it’s lease of the former Northern Pacific mainline to BNSF, scenes like this of MRL operations will very soon be a thing of the past.

This is London, right?
I'm embarrassed to say I can't quite remember. I processed and edited this photo as part of a bigger trip. I'm too lazy to check the EXIF and cross-reference the dates... even though that would have taken less time than writing this sentence. But, instead, I'm saying it like this to let you know that sometimes my memory fades a bit. Some spots I remember perfect perfect perfect perfect... and others fade away and drift into others. I'm not sure why memory works like this... why there are some things that are perfect and some that are fuzzy. The way that memory works in this incomplete way is interesting to me.
