Zeascape - Dusk descends upon 'The Blocks', the iconic and quirky breakwater on the outer sea wall at St Monans zig zagging its way out into the Firth of Forth immersed in the colours of dusk.
A long exposure captured on a very high spring tide when The Blocks are at their photogenic best.

"It does not exist... It is beyond - always beyond something, beyond a voice, beyond a violin note... It is.
And I too have wanted to be."

We didn't know anything about this new facility in New York's train system. Costing close to $2 billion US, they transformed the 100+ year old James A. Farley Post Office Building into a stunning, modern rail hub. These photos are night shots, and I'll have more of this place, as we passed through here several times over our 11 day trip.
The Zollern colliery in Dortmund is one of the most beautiful testimonies to Germany's industrial past. An icon of industrial culture made of steel and glass is the machine hall with the stained-glass Art Nouveau portal. Discover the "Palace of Labor", look behind the magnificent brick facades, climb the headframe, follow the coal path and immerse yourself in a world of hard work underground.
Die Zeche Zollern in Dortmund gehört zu den schönsten Zeugnissen der industriellen Vergangenheit in Deutschland. Eine Ikone der Industriekultur aus Stahl und Glas ist die Maschinenhalle mit dem buntverglasten Jugendstilportal. Entdecken Sie das „Schloss der Arbeit“, schauen Sie hinter die prunkvollen Backsteinfassaden, steigen Sie hinauf auf das Fördergerüst, folgen Sie dem Weg der Kohle und tauchen Sie ein in eine Welt harter Arbeit unter Tage.

I have been away from Flickr for about 5 years now. Hard to believe it's been five years. So sorry to have "disappeared" off Flickr. So many of you reached out to me on Flickrmail and I sincerely apologize that I have not been able to send a reply to each person who wrote to me. I don't wish to go into details but suffice it to say that I was very tied up with work and personal matters. Over the last 5 years, photography took a back seat although I did shoot occasionally. I only had pockets of time to process my photographs sporadically and obviously did not have time to post on Flickr. I'm now back on Flickr.

We are looking at the approach structure for the historic Eads bridge in the foreground, next is the MLK, then the Musial Veterans Memorial. The river is the Mississippi and we are on the Missouri side at Laclede’s Landing in Saint Louis. We are looking up river.
The Sunset Limit has just crossed the Mississippi River outside of New Orleans. The train is only 35" into their 1995 mile trip from New Orleans to Los Angeles. The Mississippi River bridge, called the Huey P. Long Bridge, was built in 1935 and sits 152 feet above the water. Highway 90 also crosses the river with the railroad between lanes. The highway bridge is 8,076 feet long, while the railroad bridge is a whooping 22,996 feet (4.3 miles) long. The bridge was named for the late Governor Huey P. Long, who was assassinated on September 8 , 1935.

“I believe that imagination is stronger than knowledge
That myth is more potent than history
That dreams are more powerful than facts
That hope always triumphs over experience
That laughter is the only cure for grief
And I believe that love is stronger than death.”
(R Fulghum)
Crash landing instead of after work:
In Hornafjörður they delivered equipment for the nearby radar station in Stokksnes. Now, defying the winter storms, they rock anxiously in their Skytrain towards the end of the day. But nothing comes of it: Suddenly, the freighter's two Wright radial engines begin to stutter ominously. The carburetors are freezing! The hum of the engines subsides, ends in a wild rattle, until it is finally completely swallowed by the rustling of the airstream. An unreal silence breaks through. Wicke and Fletcher desperately try to restart the engines. Without success. When they emerge from the clouds at a height of almost 800 meters, it becomes clear to them that they will not get as far as Keflavik. You have to make an emergency landing. But where? The area here is anything but inviting - cold lava, stones, rocks. Death also lurks next door in the whipped sea. Shatter or drown? It doesn't matter. But what is this? A beach? Yes indeed. It has to work out here!
