I wanted to take more pictures of Addie but a big tour group arrived and I quickly walked away, haha!
An eastbound empty grain train operating under the ubiquitous #318 symbol, rolls along the shores of Crowsnest Lake, having just cleared the summit of the pass of the same name over the continental divide and entered the province of Alberta.
The crew, which took over the train at Sparwood, BC has several minor grades yet to climb on their trip to Lethbridge, AB. With two additional units offline on the head end, the hogger has no worries about making it over the line in their hours of service. The primary impediment to a quick and easy run will be meeting oncoming trains on the 'dark' OCS controlled subdivision.
The crew will have a two hour wait ahead at Cowley for an opposing loaded potash train. Fortunately for them the hand throw west switch at that location is already lined for the siding, having been left by the previous eastbound enduring a meet there. The crew of 318 will pull straight up to the east switch to wait for the westbound. Upon arrival for the meet, the westbound will stop on the main at the west switch, line it for normal, and be on their way. The conductor on 318 will then line the east switch out of hole, and be on their way, leaving the switch lined for the siding. The rail traffic controller will take advantage of this, and likely put the next westbound in the hole here. Traffic over the pass is very balanced, with an eastbound counterpart for every westbound.

Four minutes before the sun disappeared below the horizon behind me, the light was dropping quickly. Owen Conservation Park, Madison, Wisconsin, USA, January 8, 2025, 4:37 PM.
While driving home through a shower and into the sun, I knew that a rainbow would appear. This was the best I could get on my phone camera.

... turned her back to me. In other words, I wasn't quick enough with my camera to catch her before she turned.
- Last night I made a quick trip down to Clevedon as it looked like a nice sunset was on the cards. After seeing images of the hugely impressive Sunset last Monday night taken by CarolynEaton and images through a lens, I have been making a few trips hoping to witness and capture a similar sunset. I find it quite remarkable how conditions can dramatically change between visits.
- The strong winds combined with the high tide following the 'Super Moon' event created some really stormy conditions. When I arrived, the waves were crashing on the Promenade giving a few parked cars a little rinse. I waited a little while for the tide to retreat to open up the fore-shore.
- After taking this particular image, I met for the first time the very effervescent Pixelsuzy, which was a really pleasure and we had a good chat - whilst we waited for the sunset to develop and the tide to retreat further.
- Last night, I also discovered that Cameras orientated in a Portrait manner are not particularly stable on a Tripod; and it best to keep an eye on them otherwise Gravity takes a hold. The camera appears to be working after it's tumble, but now I am off to investigate whether there are any noticeable effects to the lens and body following the tumble.
Clevedon Pier stretches gracefully 850 ft into the Bristol Channel. Like all piers it was created primarily as a landing stage for steamers and was constructed partly from discarded railway track used by Isambard Kingdom Brunel on the Great Western Railway. Costing £12,000 to build it opened on Easter Monday 1869.
At present, Clevedon pier is the only structurally intact Grade 1 listed pier in the whole of the country.

I have no idea what this abandoned pipe in front of my house is supposed to do. However, I used it as an opportunity to try the el-cheapo Fujifilm XC 50-230mm f/4.5-6.7 lens. I'd say not-bad bokeh, not-bad sharpness, and fairly quick to focus. (The lens only cost me $149.)
A quick trip to Ban Phe., close to Rayong.
Had hoped for a nice afternoon and some shutter therapy, but a severe thunder storm put an effective end to those dreams. Ended up buying some delicious, cheep cheeses, in a small Swedish shop. Greve cheese fro Sweden and a seriously mature Cheddar. Wow!!
Despite a grey, dull afternoon, some really bad photos and a long night without internet, I eventually conquered my frustration, and with some handy help from my post photo skills.
Just a small memory from a day to forget....
View Point at Rayong, Beach.
No sooner had I touched down in Cyprus than I was planning my return journey home due to family illness back in the UK & didn't even have chance to unpack my camera from it's case. Things are looking much better now but my flickr time is limited at the moment so please accept my apologies if I'm not able to visit as often as I'd like for a while.
A quick one tonight...a 'new' photo from a past year.
You probably really don't want to be in the water, and then see this coming your way. It is a large Snapping Turtle...and they are aggressive.
Hard to convey any sense of size in a photo like this, so I'll try something different. Put your two hand together, palm to palm; interlock your fingers, and squeeze. You hands make a 'ball' of sorts, and that approximates the size of this snapper's head! And its clawed 'hands' are pretty much the same size as yours.
(I hope I'll be back and more active on Flickr really soon.)

Kiss me quick, while we still have this feeling
Hold me close and never let me go
'Cause tomorrows can be so uncertain
Love can fly and leave just hurting
Kiss me quick because I love you so
