In one way or another this is the only capture from this place which was sharp. I was in a hurry and in retrospect I can see that doing LE as fast as you can, is not for me! But I had the equipment in the car, extremely high tide and very low clouds on the other side of the fjord. Perfect setup for using my new mist stripe from Lee. Couldn't resist to try:)
Seagulls perched on the remnants of an old pier, the only visual remains of a once booming, Salmon canning industry.
Dating back to the turn of the century.
Washington (State)--Point Roberts
Well over a hundred years ago, this would have been a busy fishing port.
Today, we can only imagine the sights of the heavily loaded fishing vessels tied up alongside this pier, and the hardworking employees bustling the catch, up and down the pier.
On the horizon you will have left USA waters and entered Canadian waters, BC Canada

Point Roberts is a pene-exclave of the United States on the southernmost tip of the Tsawwassen Peninsula, south of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. The area, which had a population of 1,314 at the 2010 census, is reached by land by traveling 25 mi (40 km) through Canada. It is a census-designated place (CDP) in Whatcom County, Washington with a post office, and a ZIP Code of 98281. Direct sea and air connections with the U.S. are available across Boundary Bay.
Point Roberts was created when the United Kingdom and the United States settled the Pacific Northwest American-Canadian border dispute in the mid-19th century with the Oregon Treaty. Both parties agreed the 49th parallel would delineate both countries' territories, but they overlooked the small area that incorporates Point Roberts (south of the 49th parallel). Questions about ceding the territory to the United Kingdom and later to Canada have been raised since its creation but its status has remained unchanged.

If you seek the kernel, then you must break the shell. And likewise, if you would know the reality of Nature, you must destroy the appearance, and the farther you go beyond the appearance, the nearer you will be to the essence.

Remnants of snow in Griffith Park along the river banks from weeks ago. Although now gone, the line of white made an interesting addition to the landscape.
Some small pockets of mist and lovely light breaking through back in February a couple of days before storm Eunice breezed through so not sure what's left standing here ;)
May the road to the flea
market rise up to meet you.
May you never leave a good,
vintage find behind.
May the sun shine warm upon
you while junking.
May your car be loaded down
with roadside finds.
And until we meet again, may
God hold you in His hands as
you go looking for rusty gold.
An old derelict farm house at Mangaweka. The lovely rhododendron tree is what caught my eye as a remnant of what this property probably was in years gone by - a much loved family home with lovely gardens from the remnants that are visible.
I've deliberately processed it with a flat vintage look to hopefully match the scene and subject!

Southern Pacific's Trona, California to Skyline, Utah coal empty emerges from the Thistle Tunnels at 0800 hours on June 22, 1996. Leading the charge are SP AC4400CWs No. 298, 185, and 377 pulling 84 coal buckets along the Thistle Line Change. Most of the land below the train was briefly under the flood waters of "Thistle Lake" in 1983.
A constant Simple Pleasure of mine. Taking the odds and ends of flowers and making designs with them before I have to throw them out ;o)

Remnants of old wooden Revetments. Revetments are used around coastlines to absorb the energy of incoming waves, protecting the shoreline from erosion.
These few posts are all that is left from a previous installation. Testament to the power of the sea.

Looking Close... on Friday: Ribbons
A quiet stroll in the Esplanade gardens this afternoon provided me with this lovely little autumnal scene - a small red tree with very few red leaves left. This little bunch nicely framed themselves between the lichen covered branches and against the glow of the autumnal trees behind.

CN L583 heads down what's left of the "Canadian Airline" through St Thomas. At one time this section was a triple track mainline used by CN and Wabash. Today it still serves local customers in St Thomas, as well as nearby Tillsonburg and is used by CN, OSR, and GIO Rail; but doesn't see nearly the traffic it once did. We managed to find what seemed to be the very last hold out of fall colour between here and London along the tracks which made for a nice scene.
Train: CN L583 with CN 4136 (GP9RM), CN 4716 (GP38-2), and CN 4717 (GP38-2).
