f/8 1/2000s
ISO 200 18-200@135mm
Istanbul, Turkey
This photo has sort of 'fallen off the back of a truck . . . ' I have been taking a course in street photography, shooting at 24mm. Now, this is not something I do easily, and my lens is loose, so it slips out to my comfort zone (coincidence, erhmmmm). So although this one was not suitable for my homework, being shot at 135mm, I liked the way the man's face is lit by a patch of sunlight.

When Union Pacific wanted to paint up an SD70ACe to honor the US military based on a B17 bomber built in 1943 and named The Spirit of Union Pacific, they first needed to free up road number 1943. This road number was already assigned to an ex-Cotton Belt GP60. The old 1943 was renumbered and re-patched to UP 1158 to make room for the new heritage unit. The old road number, however, still sticks out like a sore thumb.
UP 1158 (GP60)
Looking back when I roamed the streets with a film camera in the 1970s, from downtown Detroit, to Belle Isle, to Metro Beach Park, capturing ladies in their patch covered blue jeans - many in bell bottoms.

The era of scarlet and gray is supposedly coming to a close on UP but you'd have a hard time convincing us guys in the bay area. 1004, 1005, 1068 and 1089 are residents of locals here resplendent in their trashed Cotton Belt paint. 1004 has always been the nicest and the hardest for me to find but it's now in fatty land, working locals out of Ozol. This evening I was lucky enough to be out doing Cal-P things and had the extra crew of the Crockett Rocket made it to Phillips at Rodeo well before sunset. Unfortunately sky junk (which has been relatively rare lately) pretty much got the sun before I could get some real money work done. This was as good of light as they saw this evening, first day of daylight savings. It would've all happened after sunset yesterday.
Consist is 1004-1039-1068
I'm giving bonus points to whoever finds the most interesting muck junk in the foreground.
I can feel the summer slipping away already, missing those warm evenings when I could walk along the beach without a jacket.

Max Patch is one of Western North Carolina's popular dayhikes along the Appalachian Trail. Located just outside of Hot Springs NC, Max Patch was featured in the film A Walk in the Woods.

I can just imagine the huge smile of joy spreading across the face of the salesman at Martin's of Middlewich (which is where I suspect this came from) when someone from the church rang and asked if they had any coaches for sale to help carry their congregation around - "I've got just the coach you're looking for !". Yes, a Perkins-engined Bristol LH ! Now see what the power of prayer can do ....
Other pictures that I have seen of this batch when younger have had the third set of headlamps directly below the main pair, breaking up the line of the bottom bumper. I assume that these were constantly being bumped and broken off in service, hence the rudimentary rebuild as seen here, although I think this has been the subject of a further end-of-life patch-up, as other pictures of similar rebuilds look somewhat better.

On day four of my train journey across Canada by VIA rail. October 2018. We are seeing lots of snow now.
The window are not very clean so the photos are not that good. Also the train was speeding along at times and really bumpy. I have put all the photos I took on my journey on Flickr as a record of my trip.

"The Golden Arches are now more widely recognized than the Christian cross"
"Researchers have found that children can often recognize a company logo, like the Golden Arches, before they can recognize their own name."
"...the Happy Meals, two-for-one deals, and free refills of soda give a false sense of how much fast food actually costs. The real price never appears on the menu."
"McDonald's buys its Happy Meal toys from manufacturers in countries where the prices are low...Too often the lives of the workers who make Happy Meal toys are anything but happy."
"During the 1980s, McDonald's became one of the world's largest purchasers of satellite photographs taken from outer space."
"A medium Coke that sells for $1.29 contains about 9 cents' worth of syrup. Buying a large Coke for $1.49 instead,...will add another 3 cents' worth of syrup... You can make a lot of money selling sugar and water in a paper cup."

I saw this pumpkin field while out for a run on Sunday and came back around sunset to get some photos. The pumpkins look ripe and ready for the picking.
