Female cardinal looking at her Thanksgiving treat I made up of lard, peanut butter and seeds. She loved it!
I am sure he is just trying to get a better look at what is in the water, but it sure feals like he is looking at me and giving me the nod.
I swear everytime I post something its related to some stupid change which has occured. Ugh. The last of the MRL locomotives have finally been removed from mainline service due to BNSF PTC going live. How ironic that the MRL was actually who began this PTC project but in the end became the victim. It's truly a waste as all 5 GP35's are likely sidelined but at the very least unable to lead trains any longer. Over the last few years of its existence the MRL spent over $500,000 to upgrade all 6 GP35's with a complete rewire and upgrade of the control system. MRL 405 has an easy tell by the red antennae right behind the cab. A close eye will also reveal the MRL 404 has been completed, as the class lights it wore its entire career have been removed and tastefully patched during the rewire. This was all done in house by MRL employees, not contractors. Now, who knows what will happen to them? Always thought they were pretty neat units who didn't seem to be very popular elsewhere but for the most part were very good workhorses in local service across Montana.
Still recovering from the shock. Being hit by a force travelling at the speed of light is no easy task.

There were amazing views of mountains on both sides of this ridge. On one side was Mount Baker much of which you can see in the distance. On the other side was Mount Shuksan, which Wilbur was shooting.

Winter moves out leaving space for Spring to begin squeezing in before Summer sneaks up on us, Time takes no hostages for sure. With uncertainty pervasive these days, we want something we Can count on, like our beloved seasons. Each season offers up a gift to us, so open your hearts and enjoy them all. Walking on Shannon Lane today and trying to push the World News from my mind as I walked. The Sun finally popped out from behind the cloud filled dark and gray skies. Ironic today how when the clouds finally opened up and the warmth of the Sun was felt. My state of mind improved and I saw my small corner of the World look a little brighter. Naturally I looked for some visual candy to capture and share here with friends. Knowing that something positive would happen if I looked closely I’d see “What Spring Brings” every year and that is rain, fresh air, color and most of all Peace. Thanks for viewing my work. Hey don’t forget to Wash your hands🙏.
No trip to Florida would be complete for me without spending some quality time with one of my all time favorite subjects - burrowing owl chicks. They are inquisitive, playful and non stop bundles of energy; at least when they are awake! Here, a youngster finds a feather and proceeds to pick it up, drop it, pounce, walk away and then start it all over again. It was so enjoyable to watch!
Thanks so much to everyone who takes the time to view, like or comment on my photos!

Hove beach hut shadows. There was a bit of a photoshoot going on...but what they didn't realise was that what they were creating with their own shadows was actually more interesting...well, to me anyway! ;-) Shame the guys elbow got in the way though!

Sitting pretty, flying high...
This is just a spontaneous fun shot, duly over-processed for Sliders Sunday. It was one of those "Should I take the camera out or not?" moments where I also briefly worried that I might look silly photographing random doves (it was a crowded place, after all). Still, I also thought they looked funny and cute sitting up there on the roof of a subway station entrance, lined up "like organ pipes", as we say in German. I also didn't notice the plane when I photographed the doves but it was a nice surprise when I loaded the image into Lightroom (only to forget about it for another year), and it's a nice extra.
I enhanced the plane in LR with an extra mask and then went into Color Efex. I used the following filters: Brilliance and Warmth and Skylight to bring back the warmth of that sunny June day (the SOOC Raw file was a little on the cool side), Detail Extractor, Reflector Efex ("Soft Gold") to brighten the lower part of the image, and Tonal Contrast (setting "fine", opacity 35 %). I also blew the image up in Topaz Gigapixel because quite a bit of the image was lost by cropping (of the distracting lower part because I couldn't zoom in any further on the doves) and straightening (because I had to shoot straight up).
HSS, Everyone!

Watching this entertaining, monsoon sunset was a real "trip" in several ways. It was crazy, vibrant, and constantly morphing (thus the series of shots) so pretty "trippy". Hard to believe, but the total time from the first to the last capture was a mere 15 minutes. It also required a bit of a "trip" to get to a nice viewing spot. So glad that I noticed a weird glow in the sky and poked my head outside to see what was going on in time. Here's an additional still shot from that same evening: flic.kr/p/2rD8RZJ .
♩Why I don't cry when my dog runs away
I don't get angry at the bills I have to pay
I don't get angry when my mom smokes pot
Hits the bottle and goes right to the rock
F#ckin' and fightin', it's all the same
Living with Louie Dog's the only way to stay sane
Let the lovin', let the lovin' come back to me♫
