Same day as my last photo and right around the corner--the C03 crew has just got on NS 5104 at Oak Street and proceeds west at CP Mans to work the industries on the west side of Mansfield on May 7, 2020. The track off to the right connects to the old Erie main line, which crosses the Ashland's stub-end of the B&O at South Mansfield just a couple thousand feet to the west. Meanwhile, the old Westinghouse factory in the back left, which has sat unused for quite a few years, was demolished last month (12/22).
Still not sure why they tacked on a Canton remote unit on the west end this day, or why they needed two units on both ends. This job today usually gets one unit and often has more cars than years prior.
Same truck as the prior photo, aging gracefully by the side of the road somewhere in Maine.
Thanks for visiting! :)
Not as spectacular as her male counterpart of course, but a pretty gal just the same !
Thanks for viewing, Faves and comments are always appreciated !
The last and final image in this series folks and probably my favorite, love the full down stroke position of the wings, thank you all.

I simply haven’t the time..thanks Sue xx
Many thanks for your visits, faves and comments. Cheers.
Apostlebird (one of about twenty that landed in a tree within 5 metres from where I was sitting. They are unbelievably noisy! Not the most attractive bird, but they are real characters of the bush and always scruffy and grubby. They are also a very social bird. They went about their business as if I was not there.)
Scientific Name: Struthidea cinerea
Description: The Apostlebird is a medium-sized dark grey bird with a short strong bill, brown wings and black tail. It is normally seen in groups of six to ten birds, and is usally seen on the ground. It belongs to the group of birds known as 'mud-nesters', the Family Corcoracidae, noted for their communal life style and their bowl nests constructed of mud and plant fibres.
Similar species: The Apostlebird is often found in association with the White-winged Chough, which belongs to the same family and has similar habits (communal living, mud nests, ground-foraging). However the White-winged Chough is quite distinctive, being black with white wing panels visible in flight, as well as having a long curved beak and a bright red eye.
Distribution: The Apostlebird is found in eastern Australia in inland areas from lower Cape York Peninsula, Queensland to northern Victoria and from Naracoorte to Mount Lofty Ranges, South Australia. There is also an isolated population in the Elliott and Katherine areas, Northern Territory.
Habitat: The Apostlebird is found in open dry forests and woodlands near water. It may also be found in farmlands with trees, as well as along roadsides, in orchards and on golf courses
Seasonal movements: Sedentary, with some local movements to more open areas in autumn and winter.
Feeding: The Apostlebird usually eats seeds and vegetable matter, insects and other invertebrates and, sometimes, small vertebrates. In autumn and winter, it will move to more open country, where seeds become the more important part of its diet. The Apostlebird forages on the ground in groups, often in association with the White-winged Chough. The Apostlebird can also be known as the 'Grey Jumper', for its hopping gait and, because it lives in groups, it can be known collectively as the 'Happy Family' or the 'Twelve Apostles'.
Breeding: Apostlebirds form a 'breeding unit' of around ten related birds - a dominant male and several females plus immature birds (the previous season's young) that act as helpers. The nest is a large mud bowl, placed on a horizontal branch 3 - 20 m high, and reinforced and lined with grass. All members of a group assist with nest building, as well as feeding of nestlings, while only the adults usually incubate the eggs. More than one female may lay eggs in the same nest. While many eggs may be laid usually only four nestlings will survive to fledge, with numbers possibly restricted by the size of the nest. Two broods may be raised in a season.
Calls: Rough, scratchy, discordant: 'ch-kew ch-kew'; also: nasal 'git-out' when disturbed.
Minimum Size: 29cm
Maximum Size: 33cm
Average size: 31cm
Average weight: 128g
Breeding season: August to March
Clutch Size: Two to five; more when more than one female lays
Incubation: 18 days
Nestling Period: 18 days

Aachen, November 2014 (Manfred Geyer)

The evening sunset delivers some warm colors that are caught by the clouds. That same warm color makes the foreground water look even colder with it's blue coloring
For several years this nest box in my garden has had a mating pair of Blue Tits (Cyanistes Caeruleus). It's lovely to see them back once again. Whether it's the same pair annually is unknown.

No Group Awards/Banners, thanks
Same tree on the Blue Ridge Parkway, with much more color this week, and completely different lighting.
Thank you all so much for the faves, comments and support, for visiting my photostream and exploring my work. I try to do the same as much as i can!
Kind regards, Christophe.

Same Hellebores as in last photo, but this time in a vase set in a black trifold. Small light placed lower right. Taken with iPhone. Edited in Photoshop with Studio 1.
Every Winter, it seems, I end up gravitating toward abstraction. Perhaps the season drives the consciousness more inward with it's dreary dullness and 'deadness' of endless whites, browns, greys and blacks. Perhaps this inspires a less 'reality bound' imagining. The inner world comes alive with all the colour and life of Summer.
This image is made up of many, many layers of the same original photograph. This one image was treated in a number of ways and it's many variants were built up to achieve the final result.
This is another approach to my thinking that there are many, perhaps countless, ways to see the same thing. For as many ways as there are to see it there are just as many ways to interpret it. All are the same thing. It just depends on how you look at it. Reality, I suggest, is just this way. That doesn't mean that all is utter chaos, although that might be how it reads at first. It suggests that the more we "pan out" from the detail and get a overview of the interlocking of variations, the more we can see the patterns ( pattern ? ) of order.
The title is a play with words to come at the same idea verbally.
It is freeing to go abstract. That alone is all I need to run off into the unknown.
Created Jan 3. The first new image of 2019.

Once upon a time on the same side
Once upon a time on the same side, in the same game
Now why'd you have to go?
Have to go and throw water on my flame
I could have been a princess, you'd be a king
Could've had a castle and worn a ring
But no, you let me go
