"You, you'll never stand alone
I'll be standing by
I'll keep you from the cold
I'll hold you when you cry
I'll be there to be strong
You'll never stand alone
Love is standing by... "
The Bala Lake Railway (Welsh: Rheilffordd Llyn Tegid) is a narrow-gauge railway along the southern shore of Bala Lake in Gwynedd, North Wales.
The view of the NYC area from Liberty State Park is about as perfect as can be on a clear day, and I was excited that the weather was this good driving through. Jersey City's skyline provides a nice balance to the massive collection of skyscrapers in NYC from this point.
An Arriva Voyager is seen on the High Level Bridge across the river Tyne at Newcastle whilst a Tyne and Wear Metro train also crosses the Tyne on the QE2 Bridge in the foreground.
The ultimate clash of two of the most dramatic seasons perhaps?? Well, according to when this photograph was captured, the season at hand was [and still is] fall; by the time fall's foliage made its friendly [yet short] appearance, the scene was "stolen" by fall's companion old Winter. I really like how the interplay between the seasons occur within the confinement of this capture.

Two species of fireflies in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The yellowish lights are synchronous fireflies (Photinus carolinus). The long, meandering green streaks are blue ghost fireflies (Phausis reticulata). These don't blink, but instead leave their lights on for up to a minute as they fly above the forest floor. Now, I know what you're thinking: Why are they called blue ghosts if they're green? I can say that they did look bluish-white to my eyes as they flew around; the camera, however, sees them as, well... lime lights. I assumed at first that it was like photographing auroras - perhaps the camera sensor can pick up color wavelengths to which our eyes are less sensitive. But after doing some reading, it's a bit more nuanced than that. It's due to the "Purkinje effect." As part of our eyes' adaptation to seeing in dim light, they shift their luminance sensitivity toward the blue end of the spectrum. Anything around those wavelengths is more visible, whereas colors toward the red end become dim or black. The camera doesn't have this night vision color shift, so it records all the wavelengths with the same sensitivity. Apparently if I had caught a blue ghost in my hand, and held it close to my eyes, the brightness would have overwhelmed my night vision and I, too, would have seen the light as yellow-green.

"Between Two Pines:" "Between every two pines is a doorway to a new world"-- John Muir. I was taking in the views of the beautiful wildflowers in the hills near Flagstaff when suddenly I stopped in my tracks as I came upon these two very tall pine trees standing side by side, so close together that their branches were intertwined. As lucky timing would have it, the sun appeared to peek right between them, capturing my eye even further, and illuminating the symmetry of the trees appearing to cradle the glowing orb in their wooden arms.
