Two UP Stack trains meet in Traver, CA. This is a small town of about 700 people along the SR-99 "valley" corridor of the Central Valley of California. Traver is known for its grain exports.
Today these two stack trains waste no time blazing through town, even with an older Southern Pacific (now UP) loco second out on the Westbound (Compass North) train.

A stack of 4 slightly blurred (purposefully) shots, taken handheld. Autoaligned in the stacking process, then ungrouped. I think I was meant to crop at that point, but I really liked the resulting 'frames', so they stayed.
A combination of blend modes - a bit of glow, a bit more of screen - producing an intentionally (honest) contrasty image.
South Stack lighthouse is located on a rocky islet off the east coast of Anglesey, north Wales. It was built in 1809, and is 28 metres tall, standing about 60 metres overall above sea level.
The lighthouse can be visited, but only by descending - and the ascending - the 400 steps down the steep cliff face. The surrounding cliffs are used by thousands of sea birds, particularly guillemots, as nesting sites.

When VHS first came out, Disney made limited releases of all the Classics. Most were available for only one year and people eagerly awaited the next release. Fast forward 15 years. VHS was obsolete, those eagerly sought tapes were in thrift stores at a dollar apiece. That's when my grandchildren were little!!!! A trip to the thrift store and....Disney Magic for two little ones at Grandpa's house!!!!!
When you do a lot of travel photography, you arrive at the places you arrive when you arrive at them. And it may not be the optimal time to photograph the subject you are standing in front of, but you take what you can get because it is likely to be the only time you pass before said subject.
The Londrangar Sea Stacks, on the south side of the Snaefellsnes peninsula, were such a subject. We were mostly shooting into the sun by the time we arrived and while this clearly was an amazing vantage point, on the edge of the Atlantic, I could only imagine it at sunrise or sunset. And yet that is what I will have to make do with until I return to Snaefellsnes one spring day with something less than 21 hours of daylight. It will have to do...
With a fairly new GE up front, a Long Beach-bound intermodal exits the siding at Harwood on the Sunset Route east of San Antonio.
