time passes. even when it seems impossible. when each tick of the second hand aches like the pulse of blood behind a bruise. it passes unevenly in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does. even for me.

We just got our tickets and exited the Richardson Station to note this arrival. We nailed a few of the steamup shots and gooned Henry when it came time to enter the yards through the depot. I already spied that the Rico vestibule business car brings up the rear. I just had to shoot the remaining standard gauge D&RGW (Dangerous & Rapidly Growing Worse) #683 Consolidation, officially a C28 or Consolidation with 28,000 pounds of tractive effort standing at the station. A consolidation engine configuration has two pilot wheels and eight drivers, 1 and four a side. The pilot wheel help buide a road engine into curves on the line. Made by Baldwin in September 1890, #11207, as D&RG 583, Class 113. It became D&RGW 683, Class C-28, in 1924. Bob Richardson of station name, was the original who bought old mountain railroad gear and stored them at his railroad motel in Alamosa, Colorado until he got the chance to start the Museum in Golden. It was he who lent me the only original of the D,L&NW photo, comment. I think he had railroads running in his veins. But for the tenacity of one man... The collection seems to expand regularly.
Be aware that as you exit the depot right here, you will see the separate, new CRRM library building where many researchers have poured over the books that would entail a king's ransom to procure. It's right behind me right here. Real foamers better figure on allotting serious time to that building. I have already read many of the valuable tomes to Mac Poor's "DSP&PRR" that no money can buy now and the "Colorado Midland" masterpiece. I even read the engineer's warning to the new kid fireman to never stick his head out of the cab while crossing the bridge over the Colorado (Grand) River at Aspen, Colorado. Suffice it to say it's wise to listen to your elders. Research is best done across these station tracks, even if only for engineers' warnings.
Eddie and I spaced the Christmas Steamup this year but he found there was a "Black on Track" costume event upcoming. He really wanted to see this steam up. We are REALLY waiting for the RSG #20 to return for a steamup. Donate generously at the CRRM.That day will be shoulder to shoulder at the Colorado Railroad Museum; keep an eye on upcoming events on their web site. Outlanders could target Colorado trips with the expectations of hitting an event here in Golden. The entire yard is accessible during weekdays. Someone will have already been here from your home town and/or country. These are the takes everyone is foaming at the mouth to see.
Outrageous light here for the bold early steam, IMHO. Steam is a winner in winter but the wind made it a blustery day. Are you ready for some steam? The first excursion was not quite full but is building on this blustery Saturday morning runby. The re-enactors are busy putting on a show now that we took our ride.
Look around at the details and circumstances of this unique moment, and see the positive possibilities. You are now in a time and place where you can create great value.

Vaya Con Dios - Time files
It's been such a funny day
I don't know why
Walking on an endless lane
Life passing me by
Tomorrow is calling
But I'm dragging my feet
The skies are indecently clear
But I can't stand the heat
Sleepwalking in a haze
Stumbling like a child
Dragons that I used to chase
Tease me from inside
The future's uncertain
Just like yesterday
Memories of heaven
Can be taken away
Chorus:
You know, time flies
And the rebels, one day
They all go quiet
Ain't no money, ain't nobody
That can buy you peace of mind
They say you learn from your mistakes
It's a lie
My redemption has been staged
Numerous times
But the angels of passion
Still taunt me, in my sleep
They keep throwing petals and thorns
Underneath my feet
A 1973 Lincoln... Todd, a local musician, purchased it four years ago and drives it year round as his only car, even through our winters... It's not seen much at car shows because he's a working musician... I was fortunate to spot it nearby my place as I headed home this past weekend, so took advantage of the opportunity...
I've been continuing my learning and practicing Photoshop for the past few months.
Over the last year I've learned a lot about photography a few great places that I think everyone should check out:
Beginning: Froknowsphoto (froknowsphoto.com/)
Lighting: Strobist (strobist.blogspot.com/)
Photoshop: Phlearn (phlearn.com/).
These skills have been really combining recently to allow me to create exactly what I envision and I'm very thankful to these people and their websites.
Time is one of those things that I think makes a great subject because its something that affects us greatly while being nearly invisible. I liked the idea of trying to portray time in the context of a photo. I hope you enjoy!

For my theme project I was chosen to photograph "time" with what I believed it meant. To me time meant the continuous flow of life. Time is like water, it continues to flow in a linear motion. I attempted to capture the flow of water throughout this project. I played around with different kinds of water flows and different angles. My fourth photo was my interpretation of time standing still. Since I was to photograph time, I wanted to focus on linear/leading lines with the water, trees, edges of the water, and reflections. My main color scheme was warmer browns and all of my lighting sources are natural, taken during the late morning. Using my Canon EOS Rebel T5, I used a longer shutter speed to make the water turn soft to be able to emphasize the movement in water in relation to time.
Time is sand in your hand, the less time you have, the more you notice its loss and the more precious it becomes.

I think the thing that always strikes me most while stargazing is the time that the stars are portraying. It's like a geeky metaphor about our lives and their truly insignificant nature. I loved this night and I loved this location.

ScavChal May #10 ~ Toys! No kids allowed for this shot...YOU need to play! Use Legos, action figures, stuffies, plastic army guys, dolls, blocks, balls, marbles, etc., but get down on the floor (if you can) and enjoy being a kid again.
I loved playing with the Matryoshka dolls when I was a kid. Also playing card games like Canasta and Hearts, board games using dice like Monopoly and Parcheesi, and dominoes. But my favorite game was Chinese Checkers! How I wish I had those marbles today!
I sure had fun playing with my current favorite toy ~ Photoshop ~ processing this image!
Finally I used these effects ~ Wind, Radial Blur, Paint Daubs, in that order.
