After spotting empties at and lifting loads from AIM (and left behind at CP Adams Yard), CP TH11 heads light power back towards Kinnear Yard at the end of their shift working the north end of Hamilton, Ontario.

Please enjoy the shoreline sands in Large. Thank you so much for your visit!
Consumers two, two axle Brookville shifters drag a cut of loads into the JH Campbell power plant at Port Sheldon MI. These two units are the primary locos that the power plant uses but they also have a EMD SW/slug combo that had been put out to pasture awaiting sale or scrapping on site, a GE 80 Tonner and a NRE Genset Slug set that is their newest set. The power plant locos are hard to catch outside and usually it isn't in good light if you do see them. I think they are ugly as fuck but they are unique so and seldom shot.
NOON pinhole camera 6x12 model at 6x9. The light weather shifted fast, from almost sunlight to dark skies and heavy rain, most of the latter. The exposure coud be all from 5 to 30 minutes. I decided 22 minutes, and the result is decent. Pinhole photography is always a qualified quessing in the combination of f-stop, focal length, ISO and reciprocity.

There’s many things I love about aerial photography. Mainly it’s the ability to look down on things like a bird, shifting perspectives on our landscape. Places in which we often pass on ground, yet never realising how much they can change when viewed from the above.
From the ground it’s difficult to even see this river, unless your right next to it! but from the sky all looks completely different. I literally just let my drone hover in place for a good 10 minutes. In that window of time I watched the sun gently set behind distant hills, all whilst the sky changed from blue to amber then finally red 😍

Usually only active at dusk and night, the beaver was searching for a way out of the pond and into the stream in broad daylight. A small lock blocked its path, so it eventually crawled over the lock along the bank and continued its journey.

Nach den vielen Grün- und Brauntönen der letzten Bilder heute zur Abwechslung für das Auge mal wieder etwas Blau im Stream. Die Aufnahme der Erdkröte nach dem ablaichen ist schon etwas älter, dieses Jahr habe ich die Laichwoche völlig verpasst weil sie wg. des wärmeren Wetters viel früher stattgefunden hat. Dass sich diese Zeiten so verschieben ist eine (neue) Schwierigkeit beim fotografieren von Tieren/Vögeln und macht das planen von Aufnahmen schwieriger wenn man von der Lokation entfernt ist.
After the many green and brown tones of the last pictures, today there is a bit of blue in the stream to make a change for the eyes. The photo of the common toad after spawning is older, this year I missed the spawning week completely because it took place much earlier due to the warmer weather. The fact that these times shift so much is a (new) difficulty when photographing animals/birds and makes planning shots more difficult when you are away from the location.
