The first genuinely cloudless day from dusk til dawn that we have had in two months sees another adventure south after 925, this time getting all the way to the cliffs at Waitati.
Second loco 5097's paint has held up well, being one of the early KiwiRail repaints from 2008 with the horizontal red/grey colour separation. Many of the paint jobs from
Thanks again for the ride, Mr Jokertrekker.

If you look at other frames from along the coast here (including one from last night) I don't think I've ever captured so many vehicles on the South Island's main road in one shot. There is a van with a trailer behind the coal containers too.
Long day at work, headed home later than usual. Stopped on a hill above a dairy farm to watch the day disappear. Jackson Browne belting out "The Pretender" on the radio. Seemed fitting...
Another portrait from a wonderful workshop I attended last fall. Thank you for your appreciation, Gail
Mid March and the first day out of the year looking to photograph Kingfishers.
After another successful dive this male Kingfisher climbs away with a Fish.
Kingfishers are widespread, especially in central and southern England, becoming less common further North.
It is estimated that there are between 4,000 and 7,000 breeding pairs in the UK.
this could be lovely with £200,000 spent on it, I guess the same could be said of me . . .down in Arkengarthdale

One of two resident Willie Wagtails at the Kingston Foreshore caravan park. They were always ready to pose for the cameras!
I'm an admirer of the architecture of these picnic pavillions, especially with misty waters and fall colors.
I hope this picture of Granny's Nightcap (Aquilegia, Columbine) with the yellow daffodil bokeh makes you smile! They flowered in my garden in May, and they made me smile - with or without bokeh!
In my album you'll find another, more cropped photo of these Granny's Nightcaps.
One last photo of Antony Gormley's "Another Place" installation on Crosby beach in Merseyside. I couldn't make my mind up yesterday whether the symmetrical or the off centre composition looked best so here's the centralised shot for comparison. It was taken around sunset. I can't help imagining how different these statues will look in stormy conditions, I should imagine they'll be even more dramatic. For now though, I'm glad I had chance to capture them looking so eerily serene and contemplative. I used a Kenkoo ND1000 filter for this photo.
Haven't used my female avi for a while, thought to get her some new hair and skin and then a new photo :)
All elements in this image is from SL (yes, another excuse to buy meself some sakura trees lol)
This barn is in Smoot, Star Valley, Wyoming. They didn't have as much snow as we did here in the Bear Lake Valley, but it was enough to cause some serious damage.
Another beautifully coloured rose still in bloom in the Palmerston North Victoria Esplanade Dugald McKenzie Rose Gardens - quite a lengthy name!
Some nice detail when zoomed in too.

The very beautiful pearl bordered fritilliary. Another butterfly that is again sadly rare in the UK, but thanks to dedicated conservationists there are small local colonies that are surviving against the odds.
