Offered by one of my brothers when I was a child / Très petite boîte (3 cm) offerte par l'un de mes frères quand j'étais enfant
After an offer of a cab ride while they loaded the last half of the train, they blasted off from the loadout. I recall they said they very rarely saw railfans at the time. Seems I chased to the Cow Springs curve and opted to swing by Monument Valley that afternoon and end up in Helper UT that night!
Ford offered a 5cwt Van version of the Ford Model Y from 1932 to 1937 with the 933cc sidevalve engine. In 1936 Ford commercials adopted the name 'Fordson'. The Model Y was developed into the English-designed Ford 7Y 8hp in 1937 and a 5cwt Fordson Van was based on this model.

❤︎ THANK YOU everyone ❤︎
Hello Everyone!
On multiple request, we have decided to extend the offer.
It's TLC's 3rd Anniversary! We want to take the opportunity to thank you for supporting us during the past 3 years!
Without you we wouldn't be able to do what we love.
Therefore, this weekend only, please stop by and pick up a little group gift we have prepared for this special occasion.
With best wishes,
Lautlos & True
This weekend only, pick up this group gift:
A late eastbound Zephyr offered me a chance to scratch off another bucket list location. There's an angled truss bridge that goes over the UP Falls City Sub [ex-MOP] just off the cluster of interstate bridges at what UP calls Summit. Because of that situation, there isn't any quick way to access this spot: I parked about "2 blocks" away, hopped a fence, and walked beside/under the interstate interchange. The shot is pretty tight with some junk on either side of the tracks, but it still framed up pretty nice for a tight crop on the scene.
Rarely am I offered lately with the opportunity to travel ... It seems that as I'm getting old, work overload flows all around me in, alas, a gradually increasing rate (the opposite should have been both desirable and chronologically "right") ... Anyway, I had only one day and I tried to make the most out of it ...
We decided to pay a visit to Kastoria, one of the most picturesque cities of West Macedonia and as it turned out of whole Greece ... The city is small, not more than 10.000 inhabitants nowadays, yet it is located at an area of great history and of course tradition ... A city that is blessed to be built at an amazing location. all around a peninsula within the lake "Orestiada" ...
I didn't have the time (nor the guts anymore) to pay a visit to its magnificent whereabouts around my desirable photo-shooting hours (which is just before sunrise), so I tried to maximize the result out of intense daylight conditions ... If such is the case, I try to pay extra attention in capturing proper light (always set my camera to slightly underexposed image), as well as to synthesis issues (either foreground interest, leading lines, water mirroring effects) or why not all of them if one is lucky enough to find a vista that combines all of the above mentioned elements ...
NIKON D90 DSLR with Tamron 18-200mm f/3.5-6.3 Di II VC lens, aperture priority mode, shutter speed 1/80 s, ISO 160, f 8, focal length 21 mm, use of HOYA ND X 2 filter, white balance adjusted to "sunny" mode, Pattern metering mode, flash didn't go off, no tripod ...
In my previous article, like many photographer, I was very excited about the release of the new R6 and R5 because they offered tremendous advances.
www.flickr.com/photos/garivalden/50209737163/in/dateposted/
I bought the R6, the Canon RF 100-500mm and sold everything to buy again a 5D mark III
Why? Because the Canon R6 is also that:
1) Delivery of the RF – EF Adapter Ring offered by Canon has arrived 60 days after purchase. Fortunately, my nice store went out of its way to lend me one.
Many customers have suffered this and it is scandalous on the part of Canon not to have integrated the ring in the original box.
2) Prepare to pay (and I'm not even talking about new RF lenses)
- a very fast and robust SD card to enjoy the burst like the Sony Tough SD
- Resistant, I used Lightroom 6 box. To read new raw CR3s, you need Lightroom Classic
- To make the photos look like a Canon Picture Style you need a quality color profile, thank you to Damien Bernal for your recommendations
The choice of an L Bracket is complicated with this screen, Tom Migot has devoted several videos to it.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=LA25FyekVKY
The R6 is with High ISO but if you want a very clean result, Denoise by Topaze is the best Tool , So, one question: Why have I never needed it before?
www.flickr.com/photos/garivalden/51296276233
This photo at 12800 iso will be almost unusable on 5D Mark III but never forget that the easiest and most beautiful thing is to take pictures when there is ... light
- The second battery is essential. It is difficult to say how many pictures you can take with one battery but I advise you to double your battery park as well as the charging time.
For years, I shot without ever thinking about the drums with a second in the bag never used.
3) The ergonomics of the R6 disappointed me and brought nothing
- The grip is worse than before. However, I have small hands and the handle seems too small to me. Those with large hands have their little finger in the air and some props even sell a base to add.
I wore for years a 5d Mark III with a 300mm 2.8mm IS II sometimes by the tips of two fingers to tell if the whole thing was balanced.
- The SD card door opens only by friction. There is still a small slot to slide a nail with difficulty, but the 5d Mark III and IV opened more easily with one hand.
The adjustable screen has never been useful to me because its tilt to the left of the device is not practical and even less with the L bracket
Touch has never been useful to me, in the field physical buttons are more practical
4 / A user experience that sometimes disappoints:
- Eye tracking stalls when it is too complicated in the foliage. Does the ultimate portrait of your dreams with a subject against a pretty background require this technology?
- In billebaude if you take your camera back, it will sometimes take a while before everything turns on again. Several times I had to turn off the R6 completely because the autofocus didn't know where it was.
- You see a beautiful sunset, you take your R6, you put your eye in the viewfinder and there… disappointment. Why not keep looking in our good old DSLR?
5) The rendering of R5 and R6 is often very different in appearance compared to DSLR.
More so if you mount a native RF lens.
Is it the technology or the level of detail that wants this? The shots often appear to be very artificially separated, and natural colors like grass are sometimes strange. I know you can change everything in PP, but all of this bothers me and takes me away from the pictorial and cinematographic universe.
My daughter came home from school with a drastically different school photo than I saw for a decade, I got it, the canon photographer (my daughter had asked a few years ago ;-) had bought an R6 or R5 and the schoolyard became a bit strange as « Gattaca ».... Advantage for Eye AF, it’s tea time for him ;-)
6) Let's talk about goals.
The photos of a Canon hybrid with an RF lens that I have seen in recent months made me want to buy a Canon EF 85mm f1.2 II 1 month after the R6. I'm not sure that was the goal. from Canon that we buy back the EF lenses that we had sold second-hand.
www.flickr.com/photos/garivalden/50806574161
Canon did not lose everything because, to get Canon cash back, I exchanged my Canon EF 300MM 2.8 is II before the summer of 2021 for an RF 100-500mm ...
Why did I do this?
Fear of obsolescence and maybe a follow-up helped by an abundant marketing hype which made me give in and go against my convictions of never buying a zoom because the rendering really has nothing to do with a focal length fixed premium… I sold it 1 month later.
The bottom line of this financially not very pleasant operation is that, as in many areas, if we have the feeling that things will not be in our best interest, it is better to abstain ;-)
What will I miss most about the Canon R6
Focusing in low light, your 85mm 1.2 will get a facelift
Staggering stabilization from 100-500mm net to 1/50 th to 500mm
The focus on the eye, clearly the majority of wedding, sports and animal photographers will never want to go back, I understand them, this is a decisive advantage over the competition
And especially the advantage of having the collimators close to the edge unlike the DSLR
The burst and the endless sorting it generates, the swiveling screen, the touchscreen, the wifi, the gps, I will miss less.
I don't think I’ll buy again this excellent 300mm 2.8 IS II.
I still got the magical 135 mm F2 and 85mm 1.2 , my next wildlife Canon Lens will be a prime EF, surely excellent, not too big (price too) because I take my equipment everywhere, repairable I don't know ...
www.flickr.com/photos/garivalden/47688762631
Every day, especially since the digital and the Internet, our so-called user-friendly world becomes unnecessarily more complicated and deliberately consumerist.
The R5 and R6 are good cameras and Canon has really caught up to the competition but it's not my direction.
The 5D Mark III is 2012, a century after 1912, my favorite year, in which I have been preparing a photo for a very long time.
What if Canon EF finally became a way of life.

The Tallest Man on Earth
I'm just a dreamer but I'm hanging on
Though I am nothing big to offer
I watch the birds, how they dive in then gone
It's like nothing in this world's ever still
And I'm just a shadow of your thoughts in me
But sun is setting, shadows growing
A long cast figure will turn into night
It's like nothing in this world ever sleeps
Oh sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
And why can't that always be
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Just enough dark to see
How you're the light over me
And by your side, girl, where the acres grow
Into the strong and stunning meadow
A cowboy stumbling in the finest field
And nothing good out there won't be old
Oh sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
And why can't that always be
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Just enough dark to see
How you're the light over me
Sometimes the blues is just a passing bird
And why can't that always be
Tossing aside from your birches crown
Just enough dark to see
How you're the light over me

Officially offered for sale on February 10, 1955, the first Chrysler 300 was athletic looking with 300 gross horsepower aboard, it was among the quickest cars of its time. It was able to achieve 60 mph in just 9.8 seconds, according to a test in Mechanix Illustrated by “Uncle Tom” McCahill. Uncle Tom also spurred the car up to a full 130 MPH. Tom McCahill and others in the contemporary automotive press used the term Beautiful Brutes” to describe Chrysler 300 series cars.
Besides being the most powerful production car of its time, the first Chrysler 300 was also among the best handling, thanks to a heavy-duty suspension. It can very well be considered an ancestor of the later muscle cars, though much more expensive, luxurious and exclusive.
The most prominent display of the first 300’s attributes did not come in any showroom, but on racetracks around the Southeast. Back in 1955, NASCAR stock cars were, in fact, stock production vehicles. Except for some crude safety equipment and numbers on the doors, they were almost indistinguishable from the cars the public could buy. With absolutely no financial support from Chrysler, Mercury Outboard founder Carl Kieckhaefer campaigned a fleet of white 300s during the 1955 NASCAR and AAA seasons with drivers like the Flock brothers (Tim, Fonty and Bob), Norm Nelson, Buck Baker, Speedy Thompson and Frank Mundy to name a few.
The Kieckhaefer 300s were spectacularly dominant and overwhelmed the factory-backed Chevrolets and Fords. Tim Flock took the driver’s championship while winning 18 races. He finished in the top five an astounding 32 times. His brother, Fonty, took another three victories, while Chrysler campaigner Lee Petty took home three trophies. Suddenly, the 300 had a glorious racing heritage in addition to its advertised Hundred Million Dollar Look.
Considering the short model year for that first 300, 1,725 were sold at an expensive $4,109 base price.
This was the car to start the legacy. Virgil Exner, then Chrysler's design chief, called his new styling direction "The Forward Look". The 1955 300 had a 2 door coupe body and clean, simple Chrysler Windsor side and rear quarter trim. Up front were two large Imperial “egg crate” grilles. This first of the letter series cars did not actually bear a letter. Chrysler’s original manuals named it the C-300, which was an appropriate name for the car. The “C-” designation was applied to all Chrysler models, and the 300 stood for the engine horsepower.
It was THE first modern American production car to achieve this 300hp output. Power came from an updated source already available; the fabled “Hemi” 331 cubic inch hemispherical head engine, modified with a “full race” cam, solid lifters, larger dual exhaust, and topped off with 2 4-barrel carburetors. The suspension was made firmer, allowing it to handle far better than most cars. It was given a special performance PowerFlite 2-speed automatic transmission, while the inside remained pure luxury.
Notably, it was fast. The battle lines would be drawn when it ran 127.58 MPH in the flying mile on the sands at Daytona Speed Weeks, and averaged 92 mph in the Daytona Grand National stock car race. This car dominated the stock car circuit, earning the NASCAR and AAA championships its first year out.
The car was available in three standard exterior colors: Black, Tango Red and Platinum, combined with a luxurious tan leather interior.
Advertised as "The Car That "Swept the Field" at Daytona..."

The summer time offers more light to chase the Manchester Turn out of Cedar Rapids, on duty 17:00 during the week. While traffic has really hit the dumps with the virus stuff going on, the Cedar Rapids corridor has stayed steady for the most part. Even enough traffic this week for a 2nd motor to find it's way to CR. With that being the case we chased the Friday night job out of town with a decent set of CN power. Here the job tops the grade near MP 6, a few miles north of Ryan as the shadows get long on their northbound trip. At Manchester 567 will trade trains with 565 who is working west out of Dubuque.

Often winter offers a silent and magical solitude. Winter, on this dune, along the lakeshore is peaceful and filled with most beautiful textures. I sat in the sun, amongst the drifted dunes and felt very well-balanced. This is not my home but rarely do I leave this place. Though I wander, this gifted place is never very far from my thoughts. Ever changing is the beauty that really is never complete here. Hidden here is a secret and sacred peace. You must come…..
On a clear day, the view from the rim of the Caldera on Faial offers a breathtaking veiw of Pico Island. Dominated by its majestic central volcano—Portugal's highest mountain at 2,351 meters (7,713 feet)—Pico lies southeast of Faial. They are separated by the 8.3 km (5.2-mile) wide Faial-Pico Channel."

Guardavalle was hit pretty hard by the massive earthquake of 1783, it destroyed a lot of towns in the area but fortunately they had some great local stone masons particularly those from the area of Serra San Bruno that stitched most of the town back together. Towns like this offer a nice place to beat the heat during summer, the narrow alleys shielding you from the unrelenting southern sun also allowing you get some shots along the way if you can deal with the high dynamic range needed to capture them. If you are here on the 7th of May the patron saint of the town Sant’Agazio a martyred soldier from Cappadocia who protects soldiers and relives headaches is paraded through town, the children try to toss wreathes of flowers as he passes by to encircle his head or catch them on the spear he carries in his right hand

We visit Golden Gate Park often. It is a green belt in the middle of a densely populated metropolis, San Francisco. Yet this greenbelt has much to offer in the form of birds and waterfowl. At Lloyd Lake we found a hidden treasure of Hooded Mergansers. As with most days in SF, there was no sun. This Merganser was trying to eat some type of crawfish that was just too big for him to swallow. He tried over and over again to eat it but finally gave up. Turns out that “too much of a good thing” is really true.
Vyšehrad is the oldest seat of Czech princes; in fact, the local settlement was established in the mid-10 th century. Situated on a rocky promontory above the Vltava River, it offers stunning views of the city, and the park area holds hidden architectural treasures including the rare Romanesque Rotunda of St Martin, the neo-Gothic Church of Sts Peter and Paul, the national cemetery Slavín, and the underground casements housing the some of the original Baroque statues from the Charles Bridge.

It’s difficult to close the door on the things that once made us happy, that offered bright promise during dark times. Things that helped us find love or hope or happiness.
But the hard truth is that not everything can last forever and things end; sometimes abruptly, sometimes fading away slowly until they’re just a speck disappearing in the distance. We can’t hold onto things forever, no matter how firmly we fix our grasp upon them. We can’t force people to stay and seldom can we control the situations we find ourselves in.
But what we can do is remember one simple, undeniable reality. And that is that new prospects will always arise from the end of something else. That it’s okay to let go of something that ends, even when it’s devastatingly painful. Even when it’s something that seems like it’s being yanked away from you before you’re ready. The ending of things will sometimes feel excruciating, even when we deep down know that it’s the right thing, the only thing.
Who has ever started something new, something exciting, without finishing something first? It’s only when we’re defeated by the prospect of something ending that we think to pull ourselves up and move forward. Life is a process, a series of ups and downs. A sequence of unpredictable happenings. It’s not black and white and most of the events that fill up the timeline of our lives are very rarely planned or expected.
But isn’t that the whole point? Isn’t that what life is meant to be about? The things that end and the new opportunities that come out of them. The ways in which we fight and struggle and conquer and overcome.
One day you will wake up and it won’t hurt so bad. That you’ll go through entire days without playing out that ending in your mind. That soon there will be whole stretches of time when it never even crosses your mind, until one day it’s just an uncomfortable memory.
Know that one day you will look back and see that event not as the end, but as a starting point. As the pivot that turned everything around. As the thing that gave you the courage to try something new, something that would come to a beautiful fruition.
Let yourself realize that every wonderful thing that you’ve experienced is so because something else ended, not in spite of it.
Things will end, while others are just beginning.

The Mirador Ferrier Lookout offers views with a unique perspective of Lake Grey, the Paine River, the massifs and their snow-capped peaks, and everything that Torres del Paine has to offer. Torres del Paine National Park, in Chile’s Patagonia region, is known for its soaring mountains, bright blue icebergs that cleave from glaciers and golden pampas (grasslands) that shelter rare wildlife such as llama-like guanacos. Some of its most iconic sites are the 3 granite towers from which the park takes its name and the horn-shaped peaks called Cuernos del Paine.
Southern Arizona offers many springtime treats to those birders who visit, but few more beautiful than this one. The blue-throated mountain-gem, actually a large hummingbird (about 3X the size of the Ruby-throated hummingbird), exhibits beauty in its flight and that identifiable magnificent blue throat. Last year, when visiting the area, I had hoped to come across them, and that we did. Having a limited distribution in North America, primarily in Mexico, they also breed in SE AZ, SW NM, and southern TX. Of interest to note, the blue-throated mountain-gem does not perform an aerial display, using different vocalizations to attract mates and defend its territory. I think it's a gem indeed. Hope you enjoy and have a great weekend ahead.

New findings from NASA’s Juno probe orbiting Jupiter provide a fuller picture of how the planet’s distinctive and colorful atmospheric features offer clues about the unseen processes below its clouds. The results highlight the inner workings of the belts and zones of clouds encircling Jupiter, as well as its polar cyclones and even the Great Red Spot.
Jupiter's banded appearance is created by the cloud-forming weather layer. This composite image shows views of Jupiter in infrared and visible light taken by the Gemini North telescope and NASA's Hubble Space Telescope.

On a late summer evening Ogilvie Ridge offers panoramic views along the Dempster Highway in Canada's Yukon Territory.
Here, the highway crosses the continental divide on its journey north to the Arctic Ocean. The landscape bears the marks of frequent fires, evident from the dead trees and the regrowth of vegetation. Looking east, you can see across the Ogilvie River valley to the Ogilvie Mountains. The Ogilvie River drains via the Peel and Mackenzie Rivers to the Arctic Ocean. Rivers on the other side of the continental divide drain into the Yukon River and ultimately the Bering Sea. Interestingly, the region's drainage patterns have shifted over the past 30,000 years. The massive Laurentide ice sheet, which once covered most of Canada, advanced to divert the drainage to the west through the valley now occupied by the small Eagle River. As the ice sheet retreated, it allowed the rivers to carve new channels northwards. This dynamic history is etched into the landscape, offering a glimpse into the powerful forces that have shaped this remote and beautiful part of the world.

Parting gift to my dear quokka friend. They cannot reach eucalyptus leaves as the lower branches of tree are above their heads, so I picked a leaf and offered it to this grateful little quokka. How gentle are they? Well the first panel had the quokka grab the leaf in the middle, he sensed his teeth were too close to my fingers, so he opened his mouth again (panel 2) to show his teeth position and moved his head back until he felt the end of the leaf . He closed his mouth (panel 3) once he felt he was far enough away then in 4th panel indicated he was ready for me to let go of the leaf.. Last panel a very contented quokka with the famous quokka smile.

The hilltop offers an unrivalled view of Gyantse town, and there is a small museum documenting the excesses of the British Younhusband expedition, which severely damaged the fortress in 1904. Restoration work at the fortress has taken place in recent years, but visitors have still occasinally found it difficult to gain acces.
The original fortress of Gyel-khar-tse (རྒྱལ་ཁར་ རྩེ་ rgyal khar rtse) is attributed to Pelkhor-tsen, son of the anti-Buddhist king Langdarma, who vainly sought to perpetuate the Yarlung Dynasty from West Tibet following the assassination of his father.
The walls of the present structure were reputedly built in 1268, following the rise to power of the Sakyapas, and in 1365 a palatial castle was founded on the hilltop by the local prince, Phakpa Pelzangpo (1318-1370), who had acquired influence at the court in Sakya through his reputation as a brave general in the southern military campaigns conducted by his Sakyapa overlords, and at Zhalu, where in 1350 he entered into a marriage alliance with the lords of Zhalu. As dowry he was granted the fiefdom of Changra, west of Gyantse, and he invited the great Buddhist master Buton Rinchendrub of Zhalu to reside in a temple which he had constructed there. In 1365, in addition to the Gyantse Castle, he also founded the Tsechen Chode (Shambu Tsegu) castle and temple complex at the entrance to the Gyantse valley and adopted it as his principal seat. The incarnation of Buton, Drubchen Kunga Lodro, also resided there.
