Precision National Corporation SD24 6335 on the ICG at Markham, Illinois on an unknown day in October 1979, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. Built in November 1959 as Southern SD24 2516 ( c/n 25612 ) on EMD Order 5606, it was renumbered by the Southern in 1972 to 6335, sold to PNC during January 1978, and leased out by PNC. This unit was not rebuilt, but scrapped by PNC.
Gallarus Oratory, a 1200 year old building on the Dingle Peninsula which has survived perfectly apart from a slight sagging of the roof. I loved the precision of the window and door lining up like this...
HTT!
I guess it takes a good pilot to be able to work on a construction site downtown Montreal very close to all the skyscrapers. This helicopter was going up and down between buildings helping workers to get heavy material on the roof of this building.
Very clean looking cutaway on an old wreck.
Different wreck at Pin Mill in Suffolk, Fascinating place with loads to look at I've only been here twice once tide in once tide out and took 3 different cameras over the course of two trips.
Looking at the 16 mega pixel Pentax K5 llS, a 24 mega pixel Nikon D7100 and the full frame Nikon D800E.
If anyone knows of any similar places to this in Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk please leave a comment I would love to visit all of them.
April 1976. Precision National GP10 3445 sits at the East Park engine house at Conway, Pennsylvania. Precision National was another rail equipment leasing company in the 70s and 80s before going bankrupt.
My share of Airshow shots. :) Blue Angels performed at California Capital Airshow earlier this month. Due to distance differences, #5 appeared smaller, so I can't line them up perfectly. But hey, at least their tails were pretty much aligned.

The above image is a scan from an original Kodachromeâ„¢ slide. The default size is 2000 x 1250 pixels, so clicking on the photo will enlarge it for better viewing.
The original image comes from my slide collection, amassed over the past 40+ years. They are a combination of my own photographs and ones acquired through trades or purchases.
I created this Photostream in 2017 for the purpose of holding my slide collection as an archive, as otherwise they would just remain in binders and boxes, not being enjoyed by anyone, myself included.
Comments are welcome.

Modern center pivot irrigation systems use low−energy precision applicators (LEPA) rather than impact sprinkler guns. With LEPA, water is applied directly to inter-rows rather than to plant canopy.

On 27/02/19 I kept an eye on the 0E19 move from Longport EMD to Hull KGV Docks, to convey 66998 back for export. It was always going to be tight as it was booked through Derby at precisely 1700...when I finish uni! Luckily I finished early and as I went through the ticket barriers, Northern Belle 57312 passed by...that was that then!
As the ensemble went away towards a green signal, they ended up stopping short. This was because a party from ROG had met the train, and one member went to change the tail lamp, which appeared to be a bike light strapped to the lamp bracket with cable ties! He added a standard lamp, then thankfully the crew had a brief chat, during which time I'd run up the platform (with bike) and got just one photo. I also got one video on my phone of the lot departing...I can actually be heard panting in the video!
This is a phone picture as there was not time to get my camera out...below is the video:
M-FWPR sits at Yard Center with KCSM 4527, a rare Grey KCS De Mexico AC4400 The crew had just been informed to tie down after only making it from Villa Grove to Yard Center in about 6 hours. Precision Railroading takes a back seat in some cases, it seems.
Seen arriving Oshkosh, WI as part of the 2016 Wisconsin Special Olympics Truck Convoy. Always a great event!!

I've really wanted to catch one of CP's "heritage" scheme SD70ACUs leading a train ever since they were released. As with prior heritage unit series (UP's, NS's, Amtrak's) it seemed like I was cursed when it came to getting them; with them always seeming to lead on inclement weather days, come through when I was stuck at work, etc.
It looked like this unseasonably pleasant Sunday in February would be no exception; I was gritting my teeth based on reports that 7010 was leading eastbound manifest 288 along the River and Tomah Subdivisions in the morning. Due to being short-staffed at work, my usual 3AM-noon Monday-Friday schedule was switched to Sunday-Thursday; with me working 5AM-2PM on alternate Sundays, including this one.
However, thanks to frequent updates posted to Facebook by railfans located further west, I calculated I would have time to grab my gear and beat the train here after work. It's not the most stellar of shots, but being an eastbound in the late afternoon my options were somewhat limited. In the last three days I've now gotten on the board for military tribute and heritage SD70ACUs, after having been 0-fer on the units until Friday the 21st!
