Doing what so many of us do these days, while waiting for a friend at the delightful Southern Cross Café in Edinburgh. The zebra mask also caught my eye, of course.

should I bid farewell or greet the people ..

..

welcome

Music and a Rhyme ..

Another Poet who will come and wait.

Quickly, the train passed by ..

Passed by me ..

And I am still waiting..

The CHCPTL got first dibs for working Midway on this morning and they are stretched out all the way down to the Commercial Lead at St. Anthony. The Portland Z is waiting back at Van Buren while the South Seattle Z is pulled up here at EBCS Midway anticipating a tailend setout. East Hump kept main 1 open for other moves, and following a CPKC train was TCW's St. Paul Turn.

Passing Storm ominous clouds and wind that resulted in no bad weather, shot in North Carolina.

Passing by is the mood created here with the two models crossing paths and an earlier version was created in monotone which I think has a more nostalgic edge.

A rare visitor to the bay.

Unfortunately only one fly past allowing a couple of average shots before disappearing over the headland.

Many thanks to all those who are kind enough to comment and fave my photos. it is very much appreciated and welcome.

Seeing as I have nothing else to post and with this new lockdown meaning getting out with the camera to exciting and fun locations won't be happening any time soon, I'm going to post another shot from NYE up at Great Staple Tor.

This shot was taken as the first snowstorm had gone past heading towards Plymouth and the coast. As you can see by the cloud it was quite an impressive one.

Your skin like dawn

Mine like musk

One paints the beginning

of a certain end.

The other, the end of a

sure beginning.

There is story to be told, but I won't tell it to the walls.

I have not read Nella Larsen's 1929 novel "Passing", which is about "racial passing". Bastian will never pass as a Somali, but in fact both are genetically black tabby cats (sic!).

Posted for the "Happy Caturday" theme "Poem or book".

This all happens in a second !!! Maybe a bit longer if it happens to be a really big fish and the baby has trouble getting it down. This is a moment that the laughing gull wait for as they can grab the fish away for the baby.

Wishing you a lovely and blessed day !!!
