After three days of unluckiness to catch up the sunset on time, I could finally make it.
The week went so fast in this great city.. I'll miss her and try to visit whenever I can.

Unluckiness üç gün zamanında günbatımı yakalamak sonra nihayet yapabilirdiniz.
Hafta bu büyük kentte .. Onu özlüyorum ve her elimden ziyaret etmeye çalışacağım çok hızlı gitti.
In the shadow of an art gallery, a waitress enjoys a brief moment of respite before resuming her service. Between her glass of water and her phone, time seems to stand still, as if she had momentarily escaped her daily routine. Behind her, the artworks and the violin reflect another world, almost unreal, where melancholy and introspection intertwine. A pause, a breath, before diving back into the bustle of the night.
A timeless old timepiece that still works... and a question we've probably all asked at times... including when looking in the mirror as we age and see the damage time has done - 'tamage'.
ODC - PORTMANTEAU - timeless, timepiece, 'tamage'.
My interest in photography started many years ago when I took a black&white photography course while in university and learned to process film in the darkroom. Although I have always been attracted to photography, for over 25 years I was too busy with work and family to pursue it. Three years ago I purchased my first DSLR and it has quickly become a passionate hobby. Since I mainly enjoy landscape photography I always try to plan trips around being at locations during the golden hours of sunset and sunrise. Although it is immensely rewarding when conditions come together and you catch that magic light, it can also be frustrating since many times you put in a lot of effort into photographing a place and things just don't pan out.
While scouting the rim at Toroweap for my sunset and sunrise shots, I came across an older gentleman with a large format camera (the big old-style ones on a tripod) happily snapping away photographs in the blazing sun and a plain blue sky with no clouds. I asked him if he would be around for sunset and he said "No, I am working on black&white".
That rang a bell with me and although I knew no color shots would be keepers with the light conditions as they were, I decided to go back to my origins and take some shots as I walked around which I could later look at in B&W. This one turned out to be the best, and to me it has a distinctive timeless feel which is different than what you get with color. I will work on learning B&W processing and going forward hopefully I will be able to capture some images that otherwise I would have missed.
Toroweap is a National Park on the North Rim of the Grand Canyon. It is the only viewpoint in the Grand Canyon from where the Colorado River can be seen vertically below. It is a relatively remote area only accessible by a 60 mile drive on a dirt road. The last stretch is rough and more suited for those with a high clearance vehicle.
Devoid of any link to civilization or time, two crows stand sentinel on a tree stump lying in this tidal flat.

Sorry to hear about the passing of Yoshihiko Matsuo, designer of the legendary 240Z. RIP Matsuo-san. www.caranddriver.com/news/a33338595/datsun-240z-designer-...
K-36 class locomotives DRGW 488 and 489 work together out of Chama, NM to bring a freight train up towards the summit of Cumbres Pass. A timeless image that was taken just yesterday. It was a crazy experience to hear these engines work hard up grade. Here the train is rounding many of the curves found along the line in the Sangre De Cristo Mountain Range. The hill blocks the view of 489, but the giant smoke plume rising into the air gives a good illustration of how hard that engine is pushing.
