The violin is playing ... or already the soul
Merged in ecstasy, round dance sounds -
You stand and listen to them, breathing a little,
Singing stars somewhere in the sky.
Gemeint ist die Breitspurseite des Bahnhofes Siemianówka. Zwischen dem ersten Bild des Tages und diesem hier gab es ein gutes Frühstück im Haus am Waldesrand. Mit dem Fotografieren mussten wir uns jedoch beeilen, denn für diese Einstellung hier darf der Zoll nicht auf der Lok sein. Sonst gibt es Ärger, den niemand braucht. Also husch, husch und frisch ans Werk, die Autos der Zöllner waren bereits an den Regelspurgleisen geparkt worden. Zu sehen sind 2M62-0987 und rechts die DLA / Aspect TEM2-086.
Inzwischen ist der Bahnhof komplett umgebaut, einmal durchsaniert und mit reichlich Zinkmasten versehen worden.
This shot was taken on our second night during the recent trip to our Lake House in Door County, Wisconsin. I didn't think this sunset would be very good, but just before setting the sun came out from behind the clouds. It was a gient ball of red. Every sunset paints a different materpiece. I hope you enjoy this one. View On Black

Taken from our backyard on a crystal clear October afternoon. Looking up into that canopy is like looking at Nature's version of stained glass art.

This weekend has been a weekend of second chances. We were planning to go to the beach for the final weekend of summer, but I unfortunately got very sick which appeared to put quite a bit of a damper in our plans. Yesterday afternoon, Alicia and I prayed for wisdom on whether or not we should go especially since I had been and still was sick. We believed that it was a yes, so we packed up our rental and made simple sleeping accommodations in the back and we headed on our way. Another means of grace on this trip was our sweet brother and sister in Christ gifted us with door dash money since they knew we had been going through a lot. This definitely came in hand in regard to providing food during our trip which was extremely helpful. After going to the beach that night, we drove up to Tettegouche where we camped out for the night. We both woke up early (4:00 a.m.) and unfortunately Alicia ended up getting sick from me. We decided to head home earlier than expected and left before sunrise so that we could both get some rest. As we were heading back down, the sky lit up in a full array of colors and to be quite honest, I was scrambling to try and find if there was a quick place I could stop to snag a quick photo. Nothing was opening up in the right position until I got to Split Rock Lighthouse State Park where I quickly drove down to the beach and sprinted to the beach from the car. Thankfully, this sunrise lasted quite a bit longer than average and I was still able to capture the beauty that remained of it.
There were a couple of very important things that I was convicted on this morning. (1). It was way more important to take care of my wife than to see the sunrise no matter how beautiful it was. So often, I can become quite selfish around sunrise as I have my own plans of where I want to go and what I want to shoot, often not realizing that in that moment that I can end up neglecting the needs of others. (2). Even if I didn't get a picture of the sunrise, I still got to see it. I still witnessed the glory of God in His creation whether I got a picture of it or not. If getting the perfect shot is the end goal for me, I have missed the whole purpose. It is to marvel in awe at the wonders of God that lead us to worship Him that should have a far greater purpose than to merely just take pictures of a place. (3). God is so gracious to me and it is all so undeserved! This past few weeks have been really hard for me as I have felt very burnt out and angry. The last thing that I deserved was grace. God gives us so many undeserved second chances. I am amazed at the kindness and radical mercy of God!
The second Class 67 hauled service to pass whilst I was at this location was 67017 working 1V46 14:30 Manchester Piccadilly to Cardiff Central.
The tulips are back! The tulips are back. Are you as excited as I am?
Still, more wabi-sabi; that may never change. This one fell over the side of the vase, so I shot it like this; I tried it right side up, but I liked this better somehow - or did I try it upside down, as this was how I found it? Life just gets more unclear as I get older; I'd anticipated it would be the other way around! As usual, my interest here is in color and texture, and above all the way the lines move around in the frame.
BTW, I've taken to putting a white rim around these images on black because, on my iPhone flickr app, it is otherwise difficult to discern the image's edges. I made it tiny because, while large mats look lovely on my desktop monitor, they make it hard for my tired old eyes to view an image on my iPhone's small screen.
Today's forecast was rain but popped out anyway. It was very windy with occasional sun. Didn't get any film shots as conditions were moving too quickly
This makes me feel so happy and sad at the same time. I have worked in NYC for decades. I now work from home. It's too risky to commute, and be in the city I love. Will see you some day again.
I love NY
That relocated headlight lets you know the leader on Norfolk Southern's train 290 wasn't always a thoroughbred. NS 3553 was built in 1979 for the Burlington Northern; BNSF sold it as surplus at the turn of the Century. Helm Financial had it in leasing service until 2013 when Norfolk Southern bought it and others to add to their fleet.
