USA-Mexico border line at San Ysidro-Tijuana. On the left is USA and on the right of the yellow line across the road is Mexico's Baja California Norte state. I drove though and it was almost a waste of time to try to stop and show him my passport because the Mexican customs border guard was sleeping (er. siesta) at his post. DSC_1544
I love this breed, although I've never had one myself. They're such a great combination of crazed playful energy and high intelligence.
These two guys were on the back of a truck that pulled in to a gas station in eastern Washington.
Melilla (Spain), southern border of Fortress Europe. Border Spain-Morocco.
Melilla (Spagna), frontiera Sud della fortezza europa: confine Spagna-Marocco.
I militari spagnoli pattugliano la cosiddetta "no man's land", ossia il corridoio di pochi metri che separa le due barriere di filo spinato.
Ma se è terra di nessuno, perchè è l'esercito spagnolo a pattugliarla?

In 1938 Czechoslovakia mobilized against the German threats of war, but hat to give in to the Munich Agreement and withdraw from the border fortifications, even if the army was fully capable to stand against the Wehrmacht. After this not only Germany, but also Poland and Hungary ripped pieces of land from the country, and there were also extensive fights with insurgents, which cost lives of many Czechoslovak soldiers and gendarmes. Today it´s a tradition to reenact how the situation could be, when we would have defended ourselfs. It´s a fact that Hitler was affraid of the Czechoslovak military, which at that time had better tanks, more heavy guns, and a very effective fortification system. Of course we win in the reenactments :-)
A 9x12 inch oil painting of the American and Canadian Border Peaks rising up from the Slesse Creek Valley. It's a shame that you have to search for this view now that the trees have grown up along the Chilliwack River Road.

I thought this day was going to be think fog or at least some mist, but no. a dreary light gunk hung n the air.
Although perfect for detail or woodland shots I was nowhere near anything like that. Plus I had only 30 minutes or else I would have missed out on coffee and cake!
When I saw this wall all I could think of was the time it must have taken to build. Nothing compared to effort of some estate boundaries build along the ridges of mountains 3000ft plus high, but a feat of endurance if nothing else. it was such a strong feature in the landscape that the landowner of the time must have been trying to make a statement.

The actual north-south border post at Panmunjon, Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The three blue buildings actually straddle the border while the white building behind houses US spies.

Borders is currently closing 4 Triangle area locations leaving 1 full line store in Raleigh and an "Express" location inside the RDU airport terminal. The store pictured here opened fall of 1996 adjacent to the Crossroads Plaza, a large outdoor shopping center in Cary. As a side note there is a Barnes & Noble still operating several miles down the street across from Cary Towne Center Mall.

Well I decided to head down to the border in search of a desolate beach. I ended up at Border State Park. I parked at the gate, rode my bike a mile and a half on dirt road, then hiked the soft sand for another mile to reach the border posts. What an awesome sight! Giant posts of the fence sticking out of the water. But suddenly two jeeps emerged from the hilltop and the Border Patrol agents restricted me from taking photos. So I had to hike back down the beach. As it started to rain I quickly grabbed a shot of this lone column just to say I was there. Even though this is a State Park it seemed more like a war zone. There were Helicopters flying over head and lots of border agents patrolling on foot wearing camouflage.

In absolutely cracking evening light 34067 "Tangmere" slowly approaches the inner home signal at Malvern Wells with 1Z38, the returning Welsh Borders railtour from Worcester to Bristol. The train had been signal checked as a terminating service had just reversed over the crossing by the signal box and fortunately just cleared out of the way on the other line
