Passers-by
Out of your many faces
Flash memories to me
Now at the day end
Away from the sidewalks
Where your shoe soles traveled
And your voices rose and blent
To form the city’s afternoon roar
Hindering an old silence.
Passers-by,
I remember lean ones among you,
Throats in the clutch of a hope,
Lips written over with strivings,
Mouths that kiss only for love.
Records of great wishes slept with,
Held long
And prayed and toiled for. . .
Yes,
Written on
Your mouths
And your throats
I read them
When you passed by.
-Carl Sandburg

Stumbled across this nice little, hidden away Waterfall whilst looking for Bluebells just off Snake Pass in the Peak District, a river cross, some barbed wire fences and a climb to get to it.

Driving pass roads is my favorite! Bernina Pass in Switzerland is one of my absolute favorites in the Alps. View into the Val di Poschiavo.
We were lucky and this time the Swartberg Pass was open for some days after floods of rain and repair work.
The Swartberg Pass is a high mountain pass at an elevation of 1,583 meters above sea level, located in the Western Cape province of South Africa. The pass is traversed by the R328 road. Climbing 1.000 metres in 12 kilometres, it's one of the steepest passes in the country.The road is gravel and sand but you don’t need a big 4x4 car to climb the pass.
The road encompasses miles of stunning views through twisty hair pin corners, high elevations and steep grades. Along with striking warped and twisted rock formations and interesting plant life, you will see some amazing drystone work supporting the picturesque hairpin bends. There are relics of an old prison, toll hut and other interesting historical sites too. Running between Prince Albert in the north and Oudtshoorn in the south, the route offers spectacular views over the Little and Great Karoo.
While we only chased to Seward once on our trip, Moose Pass is by far one of the neatest/ easily accessible places on the railroad. Scooting across Trail Lake and wedge between mountains the classic EMD's and matching passenger consist look killer.
Wikipedia: Hellfire Pass (Thai: ช่องเขาขาด, known by the Japanese as Konyu Cutting) is the name of a railway cutting on the former Burma Railway ("Death Railway") in Thailand which was built with forced labor during the Second World War, in part by Allied prisoners of war. The pass is noted for the harsh conditions and heavy loss of life suffered by its laborers during construction. It was called Hellfire Pass because the sight of emaciated prisoners laboring by burning torchlight resembled a scene from Hell.

Some fellow hikers on the Hidden Lake trail. Looking SE at the Logan Pass Visitor Center and a section of the Going to the Sun Road. Best get here early as parking is limited.
Two awesome trails take off from here. This trail to Bearhat Mountain and Hidden Lake and the Highline Trail which runs along the Continental Divide and the Garden Wall. These folks are looking in that direction. Good chance their looking at mountain goats which are common here.
"Logan Pass (elevation 6,646 ft (2,026 m)) is located along the Continental Divide in Glacier National Park, in the U.S. state of Montana. It is the highest point on the Going-to-the-Sun Road. The pass is named after Major William R. Logan, the first superintendent of the park." wiki
Have a terrific Tuesday!
The Russian Chapel on the Vršič Pass is a Russian Orthodox chapel located on the Russian Road on the northern side of the Vršič Pass in northwestern Slovenia. The chapel, dedicated to Saint Vladimir, was built by Russian prisoners of war engaged in forced labor in the area during World War I. It serves as both a war memorial and a symbolic link between Slovenia and Russia.
J'ai retrouvé dans mes placards des rouleaux de pellicules non utilisés ou des négatifs pour photo argentique et des films de cinéma 35mm de nos lointains voyages en Europe, Amérique ou Asie des années 80. Un retour vers le passé qui ravive de bons souvenirs et qui nous donne envie de préserver ces reliques pour ne pas qu'elles se perdent à jamais dans l'oubli. #Macro #MacroMondays #RetourverslePassé #BackintheDay
