This is a very large species, growing to at least 140 mm. Phyllodesmium longicirrum contains photosynthetic zooxanthellae, which allow it to draw energy from sunlight, hence its common name, the solar-powered phyllodesmium.[3] This is actually a misleading name, as several other species of Phyllodesmium are also capable of photosynthesis, although this is developed to the greatest extreme in this species.Lembeh Strait, North Sulawesi, Indonesia
Still going strong at the ripe old age of 35 years and 9 months old.
Still considered as the new order by some but this girl ran along side the 50s 47s 56s and 37s not to mention 31s and 33s. and 60s.
She is seen at the bottom of the 11 mile climb to the summit at Woodborough with gradients ranging between 1 in 606 and 1 in 198. Here she is at full power with an initial gradient of 1 in 222 and she is hauling 4400 tons.
This shot was taken from the Great Cheverill over bridge and shows 59002 hauling the 1323 Whatley Quarry to Dagenham Docks.
El Águila real (Aquila chrysaetos), una de las rapaces más grandes de la península ibérica y de las que cuando la puedes observar a corta distancia muestra un aspecto de poder y fuerza. Momento que no se olvida nunca y produce esa admiración.
The Royal Eagle (Aquila chrysaetos), one of the largest birds of prey in the Iberian peninsula and from which you can observe it at close range shows an aspect of power and strength. Moment that is never forgotten and produces that admiration.

Peter Pecker pecked a pole that powers peoples places :-)
Try to say that as fast as a wood pecker pecks.

Skógafoss is one of the largest and well known falls in Iceland, it's sheer power as it crashes over the sea cliffs has to be seen to be appreciated, if you walk anywhere near toward the bottom of it it's like being in an industrial power shower, and the noise is truly incredible.
The one downside of this place is such is its beauty it's can get very busy, during the day coaches are pulling in all the time with tourists eager to get their selfie sticks out and generally run all over the place like out of control ants. This was the case on this day, I was over here with a few friends and I simply couldn't get the shot I wanted due to rain and the aforementioned ant swarm... they all wanted to go and do a snow mobile tour over the glacier and were getting a bit impatient with my requests to spend a long time at each location which to be honest if you aren't a photographer I totally get! So I told them to leave me here for 5 hours while they went and did that and then come back and find me later....
5 hours may seem a long time but that's 5 hours I've got to get my shots and also to have a good explore of the area well past the top of the falls.
The time went in no time and I got several shots I liked with hardly anyone around (I've included a single 'ant' for scale here), plus some others in locations rarely shot way back along the River Skoga.
I can't believe how long ago this was now, and that I've never posted it up here.

The weekly power servicing move from the anthracite region passes through Leesport, Pennsylvania on its way to Enola via Reading. A GP38 of Penn Central origins is travelling with seven of Conrail’s ten ex-Reading MP15’s.
We string wires mounted on massive but spindly looking towers to transmit our power but the sun has to power to light an entire world. I sometimes feel that my generation (baby boomer) as a whole lack humility and do not understand that we are a part of nature not its master.

The power of Palouse Falls was tremendous during this Spring melt! As the morning light filtered in, it was wonderful juxtaposition with overwhelming power of the falls! 1.6sec exposure.

A remake of the famous 1968 Olympic Gold Medal Photograph.
Rising around 1000 feet above the surrounding plain to an elevation of 5287 feet (1611 m) Tower Butte is an impressive sight from the southern portion of Lake Powell/ Glen Canyon. Sunrise illuminates the butte and the foreground layers that were once great sand dunes 200 million years ago. Several layers are apparent on the butte (San Rafael group), most notably the Entrada sandstone that makes up much of the lower half, the same formation that forms the arches in Arches NP.
The top of Tower Butte is accessible via helicopter as part of a regular tour for a surprisingly modest price- $250/person, including an overflight of Horseshoe Bend. They even set up a table for food with a white tablecloth… Thankfully they weren’t flying when we hiked in with backpacks and spent the night here.
Thanks to Peter Böhringer for his guidance on this visit to Lake Powell.
There is such breathtaking beauty in seeing a calving glacier. Had the opportunity to explore some glaciers at close quarters and experience the choppy waters first hand.
Coal fired power plant, two blocks with 757 MW in total. One block now in demolition/deconstruction.

Oerlikon 35 tons crane and shaft were built in 1911 and lead deep down to the Hydro Power Plant.
This is another Topaz Sharpen save with some extensive photoshop to recover as much of the detail as possible. The lens isn’t very sharp to start with at 500mm, but I’ve always wanted to publish it & now I’m calling it good enough. The position, the background… it’s too good to pass up posting.
The original raw accidentally posted a week ago along with 3 old pictures of ducks, and the Pelican picture I wanted to post. Oops… sorry if this your seconded time seeing the image.

The area around Dungenes Power Station is a Nature Reserve that is classed as a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and is home to many rare and endangered species. An unusual feature of this reserve is the continuous crackling of the high voltage pylons that run overhead from Dungeness Power Station back inland. Today, the haze from the moist air and unusual heat make the pylons fade off in the distance. A little point worthy of note… The glass insulators on the left hand set of pylons are green, while the ones on the right are yellow.
The physical presence of Shoreham seemed the same when I took this shot on October 7, 1990 but it looked far from the SOO I was used to. We have 325 sitting with stacks capped with MILW 2009 resting behind. Off to the left is either 701 or 705 one of the pair of GP30's WC didn't want, both had been out of service since early-mid 1987. To the right of 2009's rear end you can make out one of the EMD leasing SD35's commonly called "bricks" by local fans resting in the roundhouse and just in the frame to the right is one of a couple ex BN SD45's that SOO had bought for parts but then upon finding them in better condition then expected returned them to service for relatively short while due to a power shortage.
