A juvenile reddish egret is about to change directions as it hunts for small fish. If you look closely, there is a tiny drop of water at the tip of its beak.
Thanks so much to everyone who takes the time to view, like or comment on my photos!

Mt. Rainier from Sourdough Ridge Trail, Sunrise, WA
While leaving Dege Peak, I was focusing on the sunrise. I turned around to see Mt. Rainier with the colors of the sunrise extending to it. Sometimes the most beautiful things may not be in front of you.
Another image from a productive day out to Nottingham visiting family this week.
DB Cargo Tug 60039 'Dove Holes' passes through the station and disappears east with the 12.20pm Toton Sidings - Boston Steel 'pig-pens' (6E02). Meantime, Cross Country unit 170114 stands at platform 4 after arriving with the 9.45am ex-Cardiff (1M60).
Bay platform 5 is to the near right, and currently empty. Once a through platform it was turned into a bay during the track modifications made a few years ago intended to increase the station's capacity.
I couldn't resist exploiting the shape and rippled texture of those 'pig-pen' wagons, and who knows how long they'll be around.
Apologies for the obscure title - those in the know will know, maybe.

September — the first golden days of Autumn where the early morning air turns crisp, fruits are ripening in the hedgerows and the fragrant hop flowers hang in giant cascades in the hop gardens of England. Hop picking used to be a traditional seasonal labour for poor families who would travel from London's East End to the hop gardens in Kent, often walking the 35 miles and sleeping rough. By the 1950s, Mechanisation and cheap imports had brought an end to the tradition. The hop vine is a rather vigorous plant — I left mine to grow, as I wanted it the hops for photographing, but it's currently attempting to eat the garden! The title is from a poem, 'The Hop Garden' by Christopher Smart, written in 1752.

Back when Delaware-Lackawanna ran three times a week to interchange with Norfolk Southern at Slateford Junction or Portland, a trio of ALCO/MLWs pass underneath the Lackawanna Cut-Off bridge over the Delaware River near Slateford Jct. At the time, C636 3642 sported a freshly-applied nose herald, which was sorely needed! You won't find regular freight activity down here these days unfortunately, but at least the Delaware-Lackawanna is still going strong.
Some photography expert told me that a few years ago - always turn round and look behind you - you may get a totally new perspective. Well - never more true here. We were facing east and mesmerised by the amazing sunrise in front of us and getting off a few shots. I turned round 180 degrees to face west and luckily witnessed this incerdible sky reflecting the sunrisee
Our minds are not the product of an exceptional injection of some sort of thinking substance stored timelessly above the physical plane in an immaterial reservoir of perfect being. Nor are our admirable powers of thought coherently accounted for by the arbitrary claim that they are nothing but the result of a reshuffling of mindless atoms over billions of years. Rather, we are given sufficient reason to trust our minds if we interpret their existence as part of a continuous cosmic drama of awakening to indestructible rightness. Mind (or thought) is the universe in a relatively new and fragile stage of awakening to the horizon of infinite comprehensibility, truth, goodness, and beauty.

It certainly was a turn of events when this Caspian Tern came in really close looking for small fish in the pond.
Objects ahead are farther away than they appear... although the driver kindly made every effort to ensure I could attempt the shot.
