WE SD40T-2 #5413 rolls through downtown Creston with 227 on it's way towards Hartland Siding. Due to rolling hills and 40 mph rail, I lost the train numerous times between here and Brewster. The Wheeling is not an easy railroad to chase!
The Eastbound Amtrak heads through Mance, PA, as it prepares to make its next station stop in Cumberland, Maryland.
One of my all time favorites was a shot about two years back of a clear Christmas ornament a lot like this, also water filled.
I was using a borrowed pellet rifle that probably had a pellet velocity of abot 500fps.
So I was just curious what things would look like with a faster rifle and faster pellet. This is a plastic sabot type thing with a metal tip. The plastic part separates upon impact and releases the metal tip.
You can see the orange/red "shadow of the plastic just under the flash reflection.
The faster pellet leaves a sharper angle on the wake.
Surprise.
Wanted to try another filling in the globes.
Gelatin and cornstarch.
The breakup in rather granular.
Our first day in Queenstown on our fourth day of my friends trip around the South Island. Not many more days and they have to return back home to the UK.

Queenstown (Māori: Tahuna) is a resort town in Otago in the south-west of New Zealand's South Island. It is built around an inlet called Queenstown Bay on Lake Wakatipu, a long thin Z-shaped lake formed by glacial processes, and has spectacular views of nearby mountains such as The Remarkables, Cecil Peak, Walter Peak and just above the town; Ben Lomond and Queenstown Hill. The Queenstown-Lakes District has a land area of 8,704.97 km² (3,361.01 sq mi) not counting its inland lakes (Lake Hāwea, Lake Wakatipu, and Lake Wanaka). Its neighbouring towns include Arrowtown, Wanaka, Alexandra, and Cromwell. The nearest cities are Dunedin and Invercargill. Queenstown is now known for its commerce-oriented tourism, especially adventure and ski tourism. It is popular with young international and New Zealand and Australian travellers alike.
A resort town, Queenstown boasted 220 adventure tourism activities in 2012. Skiing and snowboarding, jet boating, whitewater rafting, bungy jumping, mountain biking, skateboarding, tramping, Parapenting, Sky diving and fly fishing are all popular. Most activities are safe except for the odd paraglider stuck up a tree.
Queenstown is a major centre for snow sports in New Zealand, with people from all over the country and many parts of the world travelling to ski at the four main mountain skifields (Cardrona Alpine Resort, Coronet Peak, The Remarkables and Treble Cone). Cross country skiing is also available at the Waiorau Snowfarm, near Cardrona village.

Queenstown lies close to the centre of a small wine producing region, reputed to be the world's southernmost.[citation needed] The Two Paddocks vineyard is owned by local actor Sam Neill. Neighbouring, historic Arrowtown features restaurants and bars.
Queenstown is a locations for television and film to be flimed.
Jane Campion's six-part drama mystery Top of the Lake was shot during 2012 for pay TV release in 2013. The lakes of the Wakatipu appear ominous, and the Southern Alps spectacular. The main location is Moke Lake and scenes were shot on Lower Beach Street and Coronation Drive, and at a supermarket and bottle store on Shotover Street. Top of the Lake's international cast includes Holly Hunter, Elisabeth Moss, Peter Mullan, David Wenham, and Thomas M Wright.

I was thinking the other day about a long ago attempt to shoot a book. The results were not any good since the book had too many pages.
I was mulling this over when I thought about fanning out the book to make it less dense when I flashed onto the idea of making a simple fan.
Here is the second shot of a folded fan.
If I was an origami master, I could go somewhere with this.
Cheers.

Taxi cabs are both loved and hated by New Yorkers. They serve as a quick and easy means of transportation across Manhattan, a route not amply served by the subways. The downside with having an abundance of cabs is the traffic that results. Most traffic-jams in mid-town are speckled with many of the over 10,000 yellow cabs that service the city.
This is a redux.

Murderer called pride
-----------------------
I'm untraceable
I'm midnight
the loss of starry sight
the little monster Frankenfright
I'm untouchable
unsinkable
the victimless crime
Gotham's grime
I'm you
I'm in you
i am you
I'm untraceable
I'm untraceable
the shot out headlight
going 60
shot straight across a bridge
headin' clear past Kentucky
