Pembine, Wisconsin was the crossing between the Soo Line and Milwaukee Road...in later years it became the WC and E&LS. Built in 1887, the uniquely-shaped structure was torched by a couple of delinquent teenagers in June 2019. Seen here with an E&LS SD40-2 (of Milwaukee Road heritage no less) back on March 29, 2017.

I always chuckle at how there can be a fantastic light display going on above people's heads and they never know it. Too many spend life looking down and never pausing to look up and wonder...

Ah the perils of trying to drive out from under a cloud deck before a substorm pops...had been driving north on this night as the data kept getting better and better. At nearly the same instant as my text messages "blew up" from a few other chasers, the entire northern sky lit up bright green. Turned a hard right on the first road I came to and hurriedly set up the tripod and camera, this is the result. Foreground is lit up by lighting at a farmstead behind me...nothing to write home about in terms of composition, but that's the way it goes sometimes. Near Big Falls, WI early on September 1, 2016.

Lots going on in this image....twilight was still casting a blue glow to the sky at this time, plus I was sitting near an intersection with artificial lighting waiting for another aurora hunter to arrive. So let's start with the obvious. There is aurora behind the trees on the left, looks like quite a bit of it in fact- that purple goes pretty high. To the right of center is a feature that has been in the news lately, as of now it doesn't have a "sciency" name....but an Alberta Aurora group coined the name "Steve" (from the movie "Over the Hedge") and so far it is sticking. The media has picked up on the story and it is getting lots of attention. What is it? Still not fully understood, but not a new thing either. Beyond that, there are at least 5 satellites visible... #steve

Had a little storm action yesterday, this seen west of Oshkosh, WI. At the time of this image this cell was severe-warned for hail, but as it progressed eastward it fizzled out in a hurry. Not much of a shelf cloud left at this point but still had some nice greenage. September 21, 2016.

Captured from an airplane window, the photo shows a winglet against a twilight sky. The hues of pink and blue in the sky and unfocused foreground create a tranquil mood, while the motion blur hints at the speed of the aircraft.

The 1898-built Gull Harbour lighthouse stands guard as the aurora borealis plays overhead...I can only imagine all the light shows this structure has witnessed over the years. Until the mid-1960's there was a permanent lighthouse keeper who lived nearby, must have been a great job if you like being alone and in the dark.

The Riverton/Gimli area of Manitoba is sometimes referred to as "New Iceland" due to the history of the area, which saw a large migration of Icelanders back in the late-1800's. Reminders of that heritage are everywhere, including many Iceland national flags alongside Canada's; as well as the unique hybrid seen here.
