It was really starting to cloud over making the stars less visible. Oh well, it was a fun night even though my toes were freezing.
2 Nébuleuses visibles, deux presque détectables...
Ciel pollué (et surtout trop humide) à l'horizon.
Pas de guidage, une seule prise.
A loaded ore train returns to Braddock, Pa as seen from the famous Westinghouse bridge.
This shot is a result of an effort to include railfanning with my trucking career resulting in finding a convenient parking spot for my layover about a ten minute walk from this location.
An ore train dumps on Dock 6 while limestone loads with 2449 head up the ramp from Missabe Junction to Collingwood.
Twee locs uit de serie 151 waren op 18 september 2004 met een ertstrein onderweg richting Oostenrijk en passeren op de foto te Laaber.
151 101 war am 18. September 2004 mit einer Schwesterlok und einem Erzzug gen Österreich unterwegs und konnte in der langen Kurve bei Laaber fotografiert werden.
Two class 151 engines were hauling an iron ore train towards Austria on September 18th 2004 and were spotted near Laaber...
Nebulas in Orion, a first attempt. A few things to fix, but I still enjoy the result!
Happy New Year!
Peace and Cheers!

Union Pacific SD40-2 “snoot” No. 3249 pulls a train of 100-ton iron ore hoppers through Spanish Fork, Utah the morning of Feb. 21, 1988. The OGVCM originated at Geneva Steel and will reload at Comstock on the Iron Mountain Branch west of Cedar City, Utah.

I can always find Orion when I look up and it's above the horizon. Since the dawn of man, we have looked up at the sky at night and found patterns, whether they're there or not.
Darwin Deez has a great song about this, "Constellations". (He uses our tendency to assign connections to things that aren't connected as a metaphor for difficulty humans have connecting with each other.)
[Verse 1]
Twinkle, twinkle, little star
How I wonder what you are
There’s a million little lights
When the sky turns black tonight
Are there patterns in our skies?
Are patterns only in our eyes?
[Chorus]
Or is a constellation just a constellation?
Is a constellation just a consolation?
[Verse 2]
Wrinkle, wrinkle, little scar
Count the freckles on my arm
If freckles don’t mean anything
Does anything mean anything?
[Chorus]
Or is a constellation just a constellation?
Is a constellation just a consolation?
[Bridge]
We are twinkling stars
Resurrected
Just like twinkling stars
We seem connected
But I know
[Chorus]
That a constellation is just a constellation
Constellation is just a consolation
Constellation is just a consolation
There's a great video for the song at www.youtube.com/watch?v=37sKI7d7-xA
First Orion and first interaction with Pixinsight, this programme is a whole new level!
Shooting in -12 degreec C didn't turn out to be easy, though clear sky and long nights are a big opportunity for good shots.

An ore wagon at Bodie, California. Bodie is a former gold mining town east of the Sierra Nevada mountain range and north of Mono Lake. It once had a population of about 10,000. Only about 5 percent of the town remains. It became a California State Historic Park in 1962 and is maintained in a state of "arrested decay".
Just an attempt to photograph the Orion Nebula here in the big city. Clearly the sky is actually too brightly illuminated here to obtain more structure.
A beautiful evening sky last night! Shot with my Canon 7D and a 50mm 1.8. Applied a Star Spikes filter in PS after the fact. In the future I'm going to play around with fog filters when shooting stars to get a better approximation of what the human eye sees!
If you see closely at the stars in Orion's Belt this is what they look like
Well at least for me
A guy pulling a heart
How cool isn't that
Love is in the air :D
I obviously had a nice night walk in the moonshine this evening, except for Aiko pulling the leash every time I should shoot
No wonder there is a man in the moon, lol
