Created for the 115 in 2015 Group - #1 Threshold
I wanted to evoke that sense of waiting 'on the threshold' of perhaps a medical treatment or diagnosis? In one of those big, impersonal hospital waiting areas which brings butterflies to the tummy ;o)
I used layers and textures of my own and from Stackables for iPad

An interesting light fitting at my physiotherapist's office. Taken while waiting for my early morning appointment.
This is built across the railway line (below) and opposite the royal residence, Schönbrunn Palace - used by the Emperor and entourage.
This was shot while waiting for the bus. Today I took an extra tour bus to document some of the surroundings. Here are five of the photos I took. I hope you have time to just look at them. Enjoy yourselfe.
An image from last summer, when we had an unplanned extra night in Jasper due to a snowstorm, and entertained ourselves by walking around the town - in this case, the historic train station. The fellow behind the counter scurried away when I pulled out a camera but kept a close eye on us so we did not become any unwelcome passengers.
Unfortunately, we wound up with an unwelcome passenger ourselves after visiting family over the Holidays - both Lynn and I developed some pretty miserable COVID symptoms as soon as we got home again and subsequently tested positive. It's kind of taken the steam out of our train for a while but we hope to be chugging along soon!

I am a patient boy
I wait, I wait, I wait, I wait
My time is like water down a drain
Everybody's moving,
Everybody's moving,
Everybody's moving, moving, moving, moving
Please don't leave me to remain
In the waiting room
I don't want the news
I cannot use it
I don't want the news
I won't live by it
Sitting outside of town
Everybody's always down
Tell me why?
Because... they can't get up

On Sunday we went to the new Stanford Hospital to see a hospitalized friend. The $2 billion seven-story facility includes 368 single-patient rooms, and has just been opened in mid November.
I processed a balanced and a photographic HDR photo from a RAW exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

The Strathspey Railway operates from platform 3 of Network Rail's Aviemore railway station. Until 1998 the railway's southern terminus was Aviemore Speyside about 300 yards (270 m) further north. Aviemore Speyside is no longer in regular use, although its platform has been retained as a fallback in case of problems with access to the Network Rail station. Coaling of the steam locomotives is carried out at a facility constructed in 2014 on the site of the former Aviemore Speyside station building. Its signal box, which was formerly at Garve West and transported from there in 1986, was retained when the station itself shut. New features are gradually being brought into service at the Aviemore site controlled using traditional British Railways mechanical semaphore signalling.
From Aviemore, the line passes the four-road locomotive shed which was constructed by the Highland Railway in 1898. The original purpose of the shed was to house locomotives for the lines to Perth and Inverness (via Carrbridge and Forres). It was common for original Highland Railway engines to be allocated to the shed and in London, Midland and Scottish Railway (LMS) days it housed Stanier Black Fives, Pickersgill Bogies (Caledonian Railway), Caley 439 tanks, Caley 812 classes, and Fairburn tanks. In British Railways days the shed was allocated the shed code '60B'. These days the engines that are in traffic on the Strathspey Railway still bear the 60B shedplate on their smokebox. The shed has a 60-foot (18 m) turntable, originally from Kyle of Lochalsh.
There is also a carriage maintenance shed which was erected and opened for use in 2005; this shed allows the railway's volunteers and staff to work on its fleet of coaches indoors. On the opposite side of the line is a three road carriage storage shed erected and opened in 2011; this allows the coaches to be stored under cover and protected from the weather.
The former engine crew hostel, called Spey Lodge, stands just to the north. This building was erected by the LMS during the Second World War to provide railway crews with a safe and cheap option for accommodation whilst rostered to work locally. The British Railways Staff Association For Scotland then took it on to provide holiday accommodation for railway staff and their families. It was saved by the Strathspey Railway Company during the 1970s and gradually the facilities have been upgraded by volunteers. Spey Lodge now fulfils its original role again, providing hostel accommodation for engine crews and other volunteers working on the railway.
After Spey Lodge, the railway passes the site of the new Aviemore Hospital then crosses Dalfaber level crossing, an Automatic Open Crossing, Locally Monitored (AOCL). This level crossing was not originally part of the railway, but was installed after the development of the Dalfaber Estate in the 1980s. After crossing the road and passing the Cairngorm Brewery the line climbs through Granish Moor. This heather moor affords views of Cairngorm Mountain and the line runs parallel to the Speyside Way, a popular walking and cycling route. Once into the forest at the north end of the moor, the line descends past Boat of Garten golf course and into the village of Boat of Garten itself.
Jogasaki Kaigan Bahnhof.
Beim Verlassen des Bahnhofs kamen wir an diesem entzückenden Warteraum vorbei. Der war so wunderbar liebevoll eingerichtet. Wir haben uns dort zwar nicht aufgehalten, wir wollten zur Küste gehen, aber wir dachten schon mal über die Rückfahrt nach und dass wir hier sehr gern die Zeit verbringen würden, bis der Zug käme.

Jogasaki Kaigan Station.
As we left the station, we passed this charming waiting room. It was so wonderfully decorated. We didn't stay there - we were going to the coast - but we were already thinking about the return trip and how we would love to spend some time here until the train arrived.
...prefer an elevated position! 😻
This is the clinic's waiting room for cats on the second floor. It was stuffy with humans and dogs at the time, so I asked if we could wait upstairs instead.
It took me a few moments to realize what this pigeon hole wall was for. It fits cat carriers, so I gave Joey a higher perspective of the waiting room. Next to this space (to the right) is a small ward for cat patients.
Taking a post-rally break in the Santa Fe Depot (completed 1915, on the National Register of Historic Places) in San Diego, California.
Back from Maine -- we had a great visit with my parents and two of our three kids. Not too much shooting, and I had to use my Coolpix (my new D70 has a lens problem). I'll be posting some of the results.
Can't wait to see what you all have been up to!
Well, perhaps I should call this an unusual frame.
Sneaky shot I clicked with the phone, while sitting in the waiting room, at the dentist, for my regular cleaning and check-up.

14 Wait on the Lord;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the Lord!
Crediton is a small town in Devon, approximately 7 miles north-west from the City of Exeter. Crediton railway station, a Grade II listed site, opened on 12 May 1851 after delays due to "gauge wars" over track width. It is a historically significant station, featuring one of the oldest station buildings still in use in the West of England, and currently serves the Tarka and Dartmoor Lines.
