A trio of Finger Lakes classy looking geeps roll around the bend at Cayuga, NY. They'll stop ahead at Auburn to do work before reaching Solvay Yard to interchange with CSXT.
High atop a 100-foot vintage factory smokestack and cleaning it out with his long wire brush!
No, he's not real, but is a whimsical statue placed there by a local developer who turned the brick factory into attractive modern apartments with old world appeal.
This chimney sweep character has been there for 33 years now and it has become a city landmark :)
I was about a half-mile away when I captured this in the evening with my telephoto lens.

Pigeon Sweeps since they are up there all the time I propose we talk to them about sweeping the chimneys in exchange for some extra food, shot in North Carolina.

After a great deal of effort in adjusting the height and position of my tripod, I managed to compose one satisfying image of this scene at Attenborough Nature Reserve. Most people would just walk straight past this spot, as one needs to step off the main footpath and enter into the bramble undergrowth to find the scene. However, being a keen landscape tog, I was drawn in by the incredible colours. From that point on, I was working hard to find a position that might do the scene justice. The sweep of the branches seemed to embrace this little clearing and that small, but vital area of space in front of the main trunk. This enabled the swirling chaos of golden leaves to have context and flourish.
I didn't know Flare Friday was a thing until now, so here's a shot of the Finger Lakes Railway's Geneva-Syracuse turn - aka the Sweep Job - working the yard in Solvay with a pair of CEFX SD45 rebuilds, during the short time the leased units were on the FGLK's revolving roster.

This image was captured at sunset down on Kinard Beach (Cine Aird in Irish) which is located within the Dingle Peninsula in County Kerry, Ireland.
4 second pan shot at the Mcdonalds hotel near Piccadilly Station. ND110 with the nifty fifty and a steady hand held pan from right to left. Been having a rummage around CS6 so lots of new videos here www.youtube.com/user/mankymaxblack/featured and I've tarted up the website so only 2012 stuff on there now

I did a double-take when I downloaded this photo of a Great Blue Heron in the Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge today, August 3, 2025. Might it have gotten wet, perched, and absorbed the wildfire soot from our wildfire skies, being so bad over the past few days? Might this be the look of a chimney sweep, thus the photo title? The last time I saw something like this was the tragic photos from the Deepwater Horizon spill from a few years back and the wildlife covered in oil. I have sent this photo to the refuge's Director and Park Ranger. Ugh.
