Seen on Trail to the top of Multnomah Falls. I thought I'd better post it before snow was too distant of a memory.

A detail portion of a larger sculpture from the International Sand Sculpting Championship in Virginia Beach. Impressive artists for sure.
Thanks for looking!

"I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporarily out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience."

A second shot at a christmas bulb filled with layers of paint. This one has a shorter delay between flashes.
2usec/~100usec/six flashes.
Cheers.
Tried this wig on Nashira, but it's a bit too big. Solution? Stuff it under a flower crown! hehe
(These crowns are currently available in my etsy shop)
She's getting a complete make-over soon, so I figured I should play with her as-is for a bit. ♥
I also removed her eyelashes, since they seemed to just get in the way.
Hanley bus station closed in 2013, the site becoming Birch Terrace car park until redevelopment can take place. New facilities were opened in John Street, visible in the background.
This photo could be better but the weather was abysmal; it was absolutely tipping it down. The bus stops at Ambury in Bath were used by Faresaver and setting down only but are now in use by First for some services displaced from the bus station to aid social distancing.
Streetlite 47442 SK63KNP was sent on loan from Bristol for additional services whilst 66720 WX54XDF had been displaced from its usual work at Wells depot whilst still retaining Mendip Explorer fleetnames.
Here in Skagit County, Washington state, the terrain is mountainous. A century ago they built temporary railroads into the woods to get timber out. Large trestles often were built since trains couldn't handle much of a grade. After the timber was cut, the whole camp would be removed on rails and the tracks taken up.
This train, however, is carrying limestone for the mills in town that made Portland cement. This rail line was short lived as they built a system of six cubic yard buckets that traveled overhead continuously. It was a dirty town at that time.

..... the circus has come to town. Only here for three days before moving on to another town. A show with acrobatics, contortionists, magicians and theatre art. Certainly changed since I was a child.

Not sure if it's because there are so many bus stops out of action due to road works, gas works and other necessary obstacles that we see quite a few of these signs indicating Temporary Bus Stop. This is a relatively new idea and passengers could very easily miss seeing it altogether.
My dad and I were walking down from Cafe Truva (just beside the temporary traffic lights in the picture) and we didn't notice this sign due to its positioning facing the wrong way from our direction!). It's only when you suspect something isn't normal that you decide to walk down to this sign and see what it says!
Meanwhile the proper bus stop (on the other side of this bus) has no warning or alert as to what's changed - and gone are the days when the flag would be covered up by a little fabric caver. And one wonders if drivers have eyes in the front, side and back of their heads having to notice such unclear signposts like this, especially on the first run of their shift.
At the Shore Volvo B9TL / Wright Eclipse Gemini 2, number 346 (SN59 BGZ) is on Service 22 as usual with its pink topping to identify one of three flagship services in the Capital and I must say how good the appearance of these buses is.
At seven years old the slogan Lothian's Buses Shine is one I'd endorse any day!
The lights of Class 70 no.70815 are seen as the loco runs through the short tunnel which carries the A678 road overhead at Rishton, on the outskirts of Blackburn. The train is the 6E32 10:05 Preston Docks to Lindsey bitumen empties, photographed on 06/04/2021.
2021 represents a significant milestone in the history of the Phoenix Railway Photographic Circle, with the celebration of our 50th anniversary. Phoenix was set up in spring 1971, and was created to promote an alternative approach to railway photography. Why not take a look at the PRPC website at www.phoenix-rpc.co.uk/index.html.
I thought I was winding down my 5 days at Auschwitz when I took this image of a slave labor women's barracks...at the back of the camp closest to Krema II. This disgusting building, like all of the brick buildings of Birkenau, was constructed quickly by slaves using the bricks of the deconstructed buildings that were on this land before being annexed by the Nazis. This is built on wet marshy land with no foundation and no insulation. It was not built to keep occupants alive for very long. The conditions were appalling and promoted disease and illness.
What I didn't realize at the moment this was taken was that the reason I came, which had not been very clear to me, was about to become clearer.
The camp was deserted at this time and I was alone. The weather was clear and cold with a cutting wind.
Photographed on Day 5 during my "5 Days At Auschwitz".
yes, i slipped on invisible sidewalk ice yesterday! this temporary plaster cast will be replaced in five day's time with a fibreglass one, if all goes well.
During the period when the 4REP units were being withdrawn and their motors salvaged for the new Wessex Electrics (class 442) units, several temporary catering units were assembled, some including loco-hauled buffet cars. Here, unit 2601 stands at Waterloo, with the loco-hauled buffet sandwiched (sorry!) between electric stock.

After the street-level and elevated Green Line tracks were removed here, but before a new building was put up, this temporary entrance to the underground Green and Orange Lines was put up opposite North Station.
A sign of the times: front yard community book exchange is closed as a pandemic "stop the spread" measure.
Port Talbot. South Wales. The fire is part of the Banksy artwork that recently appeared on a garage wall. The main part, unseen here, is of a boy getting ready to play in what he mistakenly thinks is snow. January 2019.
A UTA TRAX Green Line train sits at the temporary Airport station, awaiting departure back to Salt Lake City. The former Airport station is undergoing demolition and reconstruction, as the airport terminal has been relocated. Connection to trains at the temporary station requires riding a shuttle bus, which the Authority hasn't yet ironed out the kinks to...
