Colorado River seen from Dead Horse Point State Park, Utah. Early morning sun gives beautiful light and shadow. Possibly my last upload from my first photography workshop - but definitely not my last!
LEDs on the lighted armband that I wear when running at night. The LEDs are encased in little plastic bubbles for weather resistance.
For the Macro Mondays theme "safety".
Don't you feel like some days you are running in circles? Today is one of those days!

On Tuesday we woke up to a clear, cool summer day and decided to drive north along Lake Michigan's western shore, ending up in Manitowoc. The plan was to stop at The Court House Pub for lunch and then head for the West of the Lake gardens. We did that and had a good time. I got a number of different floral photos which will be posted another day. Today I'm posting three shots that were seen along the way.
This car was stopped during road construction while cars in our lane moved forward. As I was the passenger in our car, I didn't hesitate to reach for my camera. Our front window may have had travel dust and I took the shot while in motion, so please excuse imperfections.

On the ground amongst all the fallen leaves lies an empty Conker shell , where can it have gone ........
66620 running about 3 hours late runs through Bamford on a Thursday evening. This and the following train running ten minutes behind also running to Earles, despite the fading light tempted me down the road to see if the 20 was around.
GBRF 66701 with the 4M23 10.28 Felixstowe North to Hams Hall passing through Oakham 44 minutes late after a delay at Peterborough (staffing reasons?)
A shot of Atlas running. I really want to use this as my main pic for the contest but it looks like he only has one leg, what do you guys think?
Places like this lonely country road are a sort of no-man's land. They are visited and viewed only from passing vehicles. They are not intended for pedestrians. They are in fact pedestrian-hostile and you take your life in hand to venture along here on foot. I glanced at the faces of drivers of cars and trucks as they sped past me. They seemed surprised at my presence...not at all accustomed to seeing anyone here. This was no place to linger. I got what I came for and moved out as quickly as possible.
A little fawn, separated from the herd, runs to join it's parents and friends. Taken at Wentworth Castle, South Yorkshire. Slow shutter speed used to blur movement
Back when I was younger the Conway Scenic Railroad was a strictly seasonal operetion and would largely shut down during the winter months. In recent years however it has become a year round operation running trains to Conway all winter long and for the first time this winter running trains through Crawford Notch in the snow. Not wanting to miss out on the chance for some snowy winter shots along the old Mountain Sub I made the trip up on the long President's Day weekend to try for some snowy images.
Alas the Saturday trip featured just CSRR 255 solo with five cars meaning the return trip which is the better chase photographically would be long hood forward which just didn't interest me. Regardless, I did make the trip up through the Notch for a few signature shots on the westbound trip. Having reached the at the end of their run at MP 85 on the former Maine Central Mountain Subdivision 255 has runaround her train and is now coming back up the main to couple to the east end. At 1900 ft, Crawford depot is the summit of the line, and they have climbed some 1400 ft in the 25 miles since leaving North Conway grades of up to 2.2%.
This unit is right at home here having been built in November 1966 for the Maine Central Railroad as part of an order of 13 of the model which were the first batch of second generation diesel locomotives purchased by the road. She came to Conway Scenic in 2022 and still wears her Vermont Rail System red paint from her nearly two decade second career as Clarendon & Pittsford 203 after having being sold by MEC successor Guilford Transportation in the early 1990s.
