Louis showing great skills at the scooter park. He was kind enough to perform for the camera and gave some great photos.
A very lucky bit of timing on my part catching two seperate class 73 workings at the same time.
On the left, 73 213 has just arrived in platform 2 at Redhill, on the rear of Rail Head Treatment Train 3W91.
Drawing to a halt in platform 3 is pristine 73 961 'Alison', leading Network Rail test train 1Q69 en route from South Croydon (originated from Tonbridge West Yard) to Derby Rail Technical Centre.
This was captured whilst changing trains at Redhill, heading for some lunch at Gomshall. Just before leaving home I spotted the potential for a chance to capture both trains at the same time, but really didn't expect that it would fall nicely into place.
3rd January 2026. HZ-HM65 is towed out of the Gulfstream Aerospace hangar onto the apron. Lucky timing for me.
Hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas! I miss spending time here and hope that one day when I am not working such long hours and commuting I will have more time and energy! I treasure all my contacts here and am forever grateful for all that I have learned from all of you!
I couldn't have gotten any luckier with my timing here, as CN 543 at left (with CSXT 3224 & CSX 468 for power) is backing up at Turcot West, just as CN 323 passes at right, with BCOL 4649, CN 2599, BCOL 4643 and only 22 cars.
In der Fotografie spielt Technik eine Rolle. Die heutigen Kameras sind ja voll davon. Bald benötigt man einen Waffenschein dafür…. Trotzdem spielt sie für mich eine untergeordnete Rolle, bezogen auf die Landschaftsfotografie. Da ist es entscheidend den richtigen Moment zu erwischen. An diesem Abend sollten mehr als drei Lilien blühen umgeben mit einer schönen Lichtstimmung und schleichenden Dunst aus dem Moor. Würde sagen, das passte ganz gut.
Das alles ist nicht immer einfach unterzukriegen, nebst Job und Familie. Besonders, wenn der Anfahrtsweg noch sehr lange ist. Doch mit solchen Belohnungen nehme ich das gerne auf mich. Ich geniesse den ganzen Prozess, mit Planung, den Moment vor Ort und zufrieden wieder heim gehen, sehr.
Fast alle meine Fotoprojekte bleiben mir in guter Erinnerung - ja, manchmal auch nur in Erinnerung 😉 ich lasse sie gerne Revue passieren, oft in Form dieser wenigen Zeilen, die ich alle mit meiner eigenen Intelligenz schreibe
Das alles wollen und können nicht alle, soweit so gut. Für mich ist das bewusste Fotografieren wichtig und meine Art kreativ zu sein.
Camera: Panasonic LUMIX DC S5m2

Timing finally worked out for me to catch a growing trend of CSX leaders on the Atlanta to LA Z trains. There was a Form B a few miles ahead of them, so trains were backing up due to the 25mph restriction through the work zone. After receiving permission to proceed, the CSX 3043 and 3094, with BNSF 617 have the 83 loads moving again through the intermediates at MP250. The train was solid JB Hunt boxes with a few top spots open.

This is analogous to hanging on a string , they must have many in the shortlist to choose from . If I don't hear from the Editor ,that means it hasn't gone through .
I didn’t set this up. I just happened to be in the right place at the right time.

Was engaged in the most mundane of tasks last evening, refilling the washer fluid in my car. It's one of those things I never think of until I'm driving and promptly forget when I return home, only to have the experience repeat the next day. I was feeling rather self congratulatory for having remembered this time. However my smugness dissipated the moment I closed the hood and happened to glance up at the sky. It was brilliant pink, one of those impossibly intense hues that happens every so often at sunset. Problem was the sun had already set several minutes ago and this color wasn't going to last much longer. I wondered how on earth this could have happened without my noticing it. I'm the one who watches the sky around d here, and this one got right by me. Ideally I would have already been in position and shooting the sunset, not standing in my driveway like a doofus holding an empty jug of washer fluid. I raced in and grabbed the camera, jumped on my bicycle, and pedaled off to my go-to place for sunsets and night photography. By the time I arrived the color had pretty well leached out of the sky. Just a dull band of pink remained on the horizon. And it was already so dark I was well past the point of hand holding the camera. I had debated about bringing the tripod, but left it behind at the last minute figuring I wouldn't need it. So that's my story. I did capture some rather grainy images that I'll never post. And it was nonetheless an enjoyable life experience, as well as a valuable life lesson. I'll be much more attentive to the sunset sky tonight; won't be caught off guard like this again. And on the bright side, my windshield is now crystal clear.
This photo shows what can happen with pitch-perfect timing of sundown. Incredible depth, rich shadows, gleaming highlights, and a general sense of drama. Such a fine line between this and the utterly muddy shots that follow just a few minutes later.
In this picture you can see my friend Felikz falling/jumping in my pool. He had to fall like a falling tree that we can save the perfect timing moment.
I used my 5DmkII and my 100/2.8 L Macro lens.
With a bit of patience and timing, the natural world provides some stunning photographic opportunities - like this giraffe perfectly placed against a yellow moon.
