Three UP SD60s are the power for the A&S Transfer and are seen doubling up their train at 23rd Street Yard. The lead engine, #2184, is an SD62 rebuilt at Jenks with adjusted control stands and speedometers and rear ditch lights for long-hood forward operation.

Hi everyone... I want to give everyone an update... I still struggle with chronic pain on a daily basis. I have been without a source of income for several months so if you are in a position to help, I have setup an account to accept donations, even as little as the price of a coffee. Anything would be greatly appreciated. See my "About" page on Flickr for the link. Thank you. www.flickr.com/people/jax_chile/

Technically, and honestly, these are three sunsets. But I haven't heard a song about three sunsets. So, the title stays.
This is the majestic and mighty Mekong. And my humble spectacles. And rods poking out of the boat I was travelling in.

I haven’t been able to go out and work on my night time series for the past several weeks. But my camera still calls to me, so I’ve returned to the studio, so to speak, to shoot flowers. I decided to use light painting. The result is really an eclectic mix of styles. Each day, I ran with whatever idea came to me, and improvised as I went along. So this is more an odds and sods collection than a series of thematically connected images. There has been a lot of discards along the way, but enough keepers to start posting. It is keeping me engaged, and I hope to soon get back out under night skies.
For a look at them as a collection, check out, Flowers & Light Painting

This is from a German encampment. As I was working on the picture, it occurred to me that this might be some obscure nazi symbolism. After all, it's THREE axes. I can see one axe in the tree. But THREE? So I showed the picture to Grok and asked about nazi symbolism. Grok gave me a nice discussion about axes as symbols, but it's pretty much cross-culture, and there isn't any unsavory tie-in.
Grok also said it was a nice picture. So I got that going for me, which is nice. 😜
Now, I'm off to watch NASCAR.

Namtso is one of the three holy lakes in Tibet and significant for Tibetan Buddhists. Kora is a Tibetan word that means "circumambulation" or "revolution". Kora is both a type of pilgrimage and a type of meditative practice in the Tibetan Buddhism. Thus, Namtso Kora means pilgrimage walk around the Lake Namtso.
Namtso literally means heavenly lake in Tibetan language. Located around 240km northwest of Lhasa, capital of Tibet, it takes four hours’ driving from Lhasa. Extending 70 km from east to west and 30 km from south to north, the lake covers an area of 1,920 sq km and has an altitude of 4748 m above sea level. It is biggest lake in Tibet and the second biggest salt lake in China as well as one of the highest lakes in the world. The water in the lake is crystally clear and blue. The blue sky joins the surface of the lake in the distance, creating an integrated, scenic vista.
In every Tibetan year of sheep, thousands of Tibetan Buddhism believers will come here to worship this sacred lake. As a rule, they will walk clockwise along the Namtso Lake in order to receive the blessing of the gods.
There are several fine Tibet treks around the lake. The shortest one is roughly 4 kilometers and takes less than one hour. It starts from the accommodation area to a hermit’s cave hidden behind a large spinter of rock. The kora continues to a rocky promontory of cairns and prayer flags. At the promontory, pilgrims undertake a ritural washing in the lake. And then the trail continues past several caves and a prostration point where there are two rock towers looking like two hands. Pilgrims squeeze into the deep slices of the nearby cliff face as a means of sin detection or drink water dripping from cave roofs, even swallow holy dirt.

I live in an unincorporated area of Los Angeles, so I guess you could say my "City Hall" is the somewhat iconic L.A. City Hall, downtown. It's a gleaming white 27 story skyscraper built in 1927 and has been the subject of many of my photographs.
Most local City Halls, the Beach Cities, Torrance, the Peninsula, all are nondescript single or two story flat civic buildings from the 50s and 60s. (Torrance has three stories.) Lots of the surrounding cities have had multiple civic centers throughout their history, and perhaps some of the City Halls buildings have been magnificent. (One of Long Beach's many City Halls [from 1923] was pretty neat and the present glass walled Civic Center is really nice too.)
Nothing out west here in my home vicinity comes close to matching the grandeur of THIS City Hall, that of Gloucester, MA, a somewhat small fishing town known as America's oldest seaport.
The town was settled in 1642. This City Hall building was constructed in 1870. I saw the tower from across the bay when I was looking to take photos of the lighthouse. It started raining pretty badly, and the road to the lighthouse stated I needed to get a permit to travel it, so I turned around and went back into town. The rain stopped, the sun came out, and I drove up to the City Center to take some photos.
From Wikipedia:
"Gloucester City Hall...was built in 1870 and dedicated the following year. ...Built to a design by Bryant and Rogers, it is a two-story Second Empire brick building. Each of the rectangular building's four corners is topped by its own pyramidal roof structure, above which is a small rectangular cupola with its own roof. Centered on the front elevation is a clock tower that is brick in its lower levels, and decorated wood above, ending in a copper dome.
The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973."

I love Physalis. Both to eat and to photograph!
Physalis is characterised by the small orange fruit similar in size, shape and structure to a small tomato, but partly or fully enclosed in a large papery husk derived from the calyx.
The berry also goes by the names Golden Strawberry,Chinese Lantern and Cape gooseberry.
Not all Physalis species bear edible fruit. Select species are cultivated for their edible fruit, however; the typical Physalis fruit is similar to a firm tomato in texture, and like strawberries or pineapple in flavour, with a mild acidity.
Physalis fruit is a good source of vitamin C, beta-carotene, iron, calcium and trace amounts of B vitamins.
These fruits contain 18 kinds of amino acids .
These berries are also abundant in polysaccharides, compounds that may help fortify the immune system.
Thank you for your time and comments, greatly appreciated, M, (*_*)
