I still live, I’m just more active on Instagram mainly because Flickr, to put it bluntly, is dead as shit.
I admire the restoration that was done on this farmhouse in Laketown, Utah. A new foundation was poured next to the house which was then moved. A new porch was added and the windmill rebuilt. This is an active farm with sheep, a large garden, and a roadside produce stand. Big Creek is in the foreground.
How did a package restore my faith in humanity?
A happy girl and mom all thanks to (Nicole) flickr.com/photos/murfysflaw/ . An amazing box of clothes was waiting at our door Monday after work. We dusted off the snow and found inside the most beautiful dresses, full of bows and dots. Topping it off was this gorgeous blue coat with fur lining the hood and cuffs and a hand muff with a dog poking out of the top. I squealed with delight yelling to Loren to come and see the awesomeness I was staring at and Larra proceeded to go "pfff pff" her way of saying woof. Instantly, plans started in my head of wearing one dress to her birthday party and another for Christmas.
How did this kind act from a virtual flickr friend restore my faith in humanity? Larra spent 2 months in the NICU and for those of you who have been there you know the hell and happiness that this type of journey brings. Friends and family gifted us beautiful preemie outfits and knitted Larra adorable hats to keep my spirits high. As babies do, Larra eventually outgrew these outfits. After hearing that our neighbors coworker had triplet girls in the NICU just a few months after Larra was discharged I decided that I would give her those clothes. I did this twice because she outgrew more clothes while they were still there. Never a thanks, not a card, not a voicemail not a single word I ever heard from this woman. Eventually I confirmed with one of the nurses that she had in fact, received the clothes and she had. I can't say I am proud that I was bummed that I didn't receive any type of acknowledgement but I have to say I was disappointed.
Tuesday when I was sharing my exciting news of the box that arrived with my co-worker, Randi she said, "this box, it is the universe thanking you You didn't get an immediate acknowledgment but someone just paid it forward to you".
So Nicole, a simple kind gesture rocked my world. Thanks---a million times.
One of several restored locks on the historic Hennepin canal that connects the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers across Northern Illinois. Lock 16.
The famous “Binns Clock” on the corner of Princes Street and Hope Street in Edinburgh has been restored. The building used to be occupied by the department store Binns which was taken over by House of Fraser in 1953. The clock was installed in 1960 and was an iconic meeting place. The Frasers store closed in 2018 and the building is currently being converted into the Johnnie Walker Experience. The clock restoration work was carried out by the Cumbria Clock Company who also repaired the musical mechanism which plays traditional Scottish tunes every half an hour as the kilted figures march out of the clock. In keeping with tradition, the Highland figures will emerge to the musical accompaniment every seven and 37 minutes past the hour.
After several years in isolation in Poduene depot in Sofia, ex-BDZ 44 083 now runs a second life. The newest private operator bought several electric locomotives from the State company and completely overhauled them in Czech Republic. On the photo 44 083 is acting as a helper machine of a coal train to Bobov dol power plant. In front of the train is a diesel locomotive type LDE2100 (ex CFR 60-0819).
What happens to imagination in a logic world that makes people work until they get sick, long for horrible things that they don´t need and walking around feeling bad about themselves? What happens to the human soul when imagination is forgotten?
This image has been waiting a long time to be edited! I shot it over two years ago. Everything was well planned, from the prop and costume to the location. But I never knew how to edit it. Until today, which I´m very happy for :D The edit isn´t what I thought it would be when I first shot the image, but that´s what´s amazing with Photoshop- that you never know where it will end!

The engineer and conductor of Maine Northern Railway Train 901-31 converse as they pass the restored station at Oakfield, which is home to the Oakfield Railroad Museum, which is the de facto Bangor and Aroostook museum which is open in the summertime.
About 10 cars back a track foreman is keeping a watchful eye as 901-31 crawls over a sun kink on the bridge at the south end of the yard.

The train station in Caledonia ON. It was actually closed that day as the place was being restored. The door was open and the people working inside gave us a tour. It was very cool.
A few days ago I spent some time working on this image, I choose a selection of textures that I liked together, I generally faffed around until I was happy. Clicked on save and Photoshop crashed :(
Suddenly today Photoshop decided to "restore large format file" and as if by magic it re-appeared!!
One of several structures being restored in Chesterfield Ghost Town, Caribou County, Idaho.
Chesterfield is a Mormon pioneer town founded in 1880 along the Old Oregon Trail in southeast Idaho. At the moment totally unoccupied, 27 structures overlooking the Portneuf Valley near Bancroft, Idaho are undergoing restoration by descendants of the early settlers.
Photographed in 665 nanometer infrared with an infrared modified Canon 20d and rendered in monochrome.

Another view of the newly restored Elizabeth Tower!
It's looking very good! And gives us an idea of what the rest of the Palace of Westminster will look like when it is finished!

The newly restored aquaduct at Marple which carries the canal over the river Goyt.
The 200 year old structure has had lots of work done to it and the trees cleared from around it. Also a new path gives better access.
The other arches belong to a later bridge which carries the railway.
From left to right, South Shields 204, Rotherham 37, Bournemouth 99, Nottingham 493 and Maidstone 72. All but Bournemouth 99 are serviceable. 99 requires some bodywork attention and a new resistance bank.
I saw it on arriving in Dieppe on Wednesday. Today, when I drove by the shipyard, Frya had gone. Sailing anew I hope.
The recently restored Victorian bandstand on the seafront in Brighton makes for a very photogenic subject at any time of day. For this vintage style shot I've framed the disintegrating West Pier in the centre of the frame.

From www.brightonbandstand.co.uk/users/history , "Brighton Bandstand, the Birdcage sitting on the city seafront, designed by Phillip Lockwood and completed in 1884 is designated as a Grade II Listed Building of Architectural importance. The fancy cast iron work was manufactured by Walter Macfarlane & Co. of Saracen Foundry in Glasgow, now operating as Heritage Engineering."

The restoration of this car, which sits in a little park across the main street from the city offices, was done as an Eagle Scount project by a young man named Rick Martinez. he completed the project in 1993. Sadly, he only lived from 1978-1998. Quite an accomplishment.
This is the first of many new images from my time spent at a Flickr Gathering in upstate New York. You can read all about it and see LOTS of behind the scenes pictures AND a speed edit on my blog! :)
