Some nice colours pre-sunrise this morning at Tynemouth North Pier. Changing weather at present and might be some snow on the horizon apparently!
A wide angle shot of the bay at Flamborough North Landing.
There used to be a lifeboat station here but closed in 1993 when the new station was opened on the bay at South Landing. I think fishing boats still launch from here though: if you look to the middle of my photo you can see 3 boats (or cobles) tied up on the slope just above the sand and another 2 further up the slipway. They are dragged up the beach by the tractors similar to the old, decaying one I posted yesterday.
This is a beautiful area and is well known for its smugglers' caves: smugglers used to come onshore here and hide their wares in the deep caves that have been carved into the cliffs of the enclosed bay.

Milwaukee North #2131 takes off for Fox Lake behind the ex-GO #530 (METX #98) passing what will become the Fox Lake double-header later that afternoon with the former AMTK #465 and another ex-GO F59PH. Since picking up its first F59 almost seven years ago, Metra has put these engines to good use.
The North Fork Canyon, just outside Cody, Wyoming, was spectacular, with the North Fork Shoshone River cutting right through it. Most of the trees in the area had already lost their leaves, but the aspens along the river were still glowing gold—likely protected from frost by the warmer water. The combination of the winding road, shimmering river, and golden aspens made this stop an absolutely breathtaking view.
The North Calder Water is a river in North Lanarkshire which flows for 12 miles (19 km) from the Black Loch via the Hillend Reservoir, Caldercruix, Plains, Airdrie, Calderbank, Carnbroe and Viewpark to the River Clyde at Daldowie, south-east of Glasgow.
A mile or so north of Bellevue trestle on the morning of September 13, 1997 is ACR train 1. 1753 and 1752 lead the way on the all day jaunt to Hearst. I really liked this spot and shot it numerous times over the years. I posted a view with a longer lens of this same train a few months ago. Just had time to lower the 180mm and get the 50mm in position for this shot before the power was by me.

Looking north along the San Mateo County Coastline, I'm drawn to the geometric variability, caused by the ever shifting whims of the tide. The marine layer is just starting to dominate the scene, replacing the warm spaces of sunlight with moist, bone chilling air.

A North American Moose (Alces alces) in the colourful fall landscape of the Grand Teton National park in Jackson, Wyoming, USA.
If you look closely you can see the small spikes/antlers of a young bull on this moose.

The North America Nebula is a large and colorful emission nebula, immense clouds of ionized gases throwing off their own light. It is 1,500 light years distant from earth and in the night sky it appears as large as 4 full moons. While it is large and bright for a nebula, it is too dim to be seen with the naked eye. But I use a "go to" tripod and mount that can guide a telescope to thousands of galaxies, nebulae and stars. It can not only point the camera precisely to the object, it also tracks the target's movement across the night sky so that the stars remain points of light even with exposure times (the time the shutter is open) of 5 minutes.
This composite photo is a stack of 35 photos, each 5 minutes long, so light was collected for close to 3 hours. I lounged in my sleeping bag nearby, keeping track of the progress of collecting photos with an iPad mini. On each of the nights I turned off the mount and camera at about 4 am, as light began to appear on the eastern horizon.

This remote farmhouse was the scene of an unsolved murder on New Years Day, 1880. The victim was Robert Snowball, who lived there with his father and a housekeeper. The case attracted national press attention, perhaps because of the remoteness of the location and the unlikeliness that a stranger could have approached the house without making the resident dogs bark. The housekeeper, Jane Barron, was tried but acquitted.

Holger’s photography-centric vacation trips would not be complete if he did not take long exposed colorful images of stones in the sea. Here is the obligatory one from the last trip. ;-)
Taken at Rügen’s north coast at a beach which I had for myself. Long exposure appeared to be the right vehicle for this image because it abstracts the sea’s surface to a soft and flat mirror, broken by the rocks and exposing just a bit of what is underneath, contrasted by the fast moving clouds.

And fence. Fences. Actually a fair number of fences. I've counted around ten, and there may be more!
Best viewed large.
Happy Fence Friday!
North Carolina BBQ this was excellent, I have become very fond of local BBQ over the years, in spite of being raised in Texas, shot in North Carolina.
Crops above North Foreland Cliffs, Kent Coast of England.
The shoreline below only passable at low tide on foot. The area is home to the 39 Steps of John Buchan, Spies, smugglers, fascism, murder and suicide. Depending on which books you read. Some fact, some alleged.
It's a bit hot outside for my taste (hot and humid - it's my 'favourite' time of year when sweat is running out of the bottom of my gloves at work), so I try to conjure the memories of cool sea water and a cold evening wind. I keep telling myself that it works :-)
