Phnom Penh
Some of the slum areas do not even have single rooms, they are thick and untidy clusters of small roofed walls – ceilings of which are made of scraps of wood, used sacks, metal, or some sort of waste material. You see 10 to 12 people live, eat and sleep under the same roof. The children often play in places where the drains are used as open toilets
Everything on earth is borrowed....
There is no "Mine or Yours."....
There is only "Ours."....
Even time is borrowed.
We kill over a plot of land that
belongs only to our Mother Earth.
All you have is what you came with...
and what you will leave with....
Your Spirit.
Native American Proverb
One of the interesting aspects of grave sites around Thailand is that many include pictures of the deceased, like the ones seen here at Wat Arun. Often names go forgotten and I thought it was a nice addition to a traditional grave that brought a sense of humanity to an otherwise cold faceless stone.
Another one from Lake Wenatchee. I miss this place a lot.
Also this photo is the first one I edited after I discovered artificial grad filters in Lightroom. That would have been nice to know about months ago.
Didn't take a lot of pictures this past weekend while I was home. Too many other things and not enough time. I did manage a few indoor pictures of my sister's orchid. Her and my brother-in-law are off on their annual cruise, so my mom is house plant and fish sitting. I haven't touched my macro lens in a few months, felt the need, so I borrowed my sister's flower for an impromptu mini photo shoot. Now you get my title, "borrowed beauty..." Pretty dang clever, huh. ;^)
...
and yeah, I got one too :) Borrowed a camera just long enough to get this shot
And yeah i am still alive and doing stuff, hope to be catching up here once again. Every time I catch up I end up falling behind again. Sorry!
oh, and still working on music too :)

PS I hope no one is disappointed the world didn't end, I'm not... ;D
Counting stars and passing cars
On the interstate
The end is near I feel it dear,
But I am not afraid
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
But you say you're getting tired
You're tired and so am I
When you follow from behind
Step, step right over the line
And onto borrowed time
When it's life, not waiting to die
Waiting to divide to divide
A Fine Frenzy - Borrowed Time
WAH are checking in checked out but non returned books. We are more lenders than borrowers, but I suspect at least one of these is a University library book which will forever be unreturned.
The HST doesn't have long and a year long project is underway at Garforth to replace the NER footbridge.
The HST is passing under one of the original bridges of the first main line railway in Leeds, the Leeds and Selby Railway, which when conceived in the 1830's was planned to be four track wide, hence the span of the bridges, the footbridge is a much later c1900 North Eastern Railway design.
I've put together a short video of my evening before the works commenced.

I borrowed the song title by Melissa Etheridge for this. After a day of rain, I went out late and for lack of anything better to shoot, I captured a window in my house. I guess you could call it a window of time.
Approaching sundown at Sabang Beach in Baler, Aurora, Philippines. This beach faces east so we did not expect to get any good sunset shots here. But just as we were strolling along the baywalk before dusk on our second day here, we noticed that the setting sun had started to lend its colors to the opposite horizon. Time to bring out the cameras...
For Macro Mondays - Speckled.
Borrowed from a plant in a friends garden. I'm not sure what the plant is and as our friends are away at present I can't ask. The leaf is 54 mm (just over 2 inches long) and was shot against a reflective surface.
Happy Macro Monday.

Seems like Flickr is working decently today. We survived :)))
Happy weekend dear friends!
Just discovered this lady, enjoy!
With an overhauled SD70MACE on the point, M252 knocks down the BC 33.1 intermediate at Dillsboro. While not part of last months cutovers, this signal already has a replacement mast standing next to it, with an anticipated cutover in October. The remaining stretch from Milan to Lawrenceburg is the last bastion of active B&O intermediate signals, as the Toledo Sub and most examples on short lines only include control points. With the fall of the remaining signals on the Indiana sub, B&O intermediates will be all but extinct.
Borrowed D5600 and 200-500 zoom. Capped ISO at 1600 with f5.6 and let the shutter speed drop as necessary. Single point focus.
Clinchfield’s US&S P-5 installations at S.E. Kermit work out their last days as also soon to be rebuilt CSXT 428 works south toward Kingsport Yard with M693-10. As of the date of this photo, there were new signal bases and conduit at both ends of the siding. “Progress” I guess…
Entranced by the golden yellow glow of the flowers the little people were tempted to brave the outside world. Dodging spiders, human feet and cats they had a marvellous adventure. (I'm lost in my imagination again ...)

NS 1066 finds itself on BISI for the second time this week, with engineer Ed wasting no time on the road.
With the trailing SP leaser offline and the leader notched out, L510 roars north out of the Blanchard River valley and passes the endangered CPLs at MP153.5 on warm May morning in NWO
This gap in the trees along the shore was created when the property owner cleared the lot and then ... nothing. Maybe one day they will build and I will no longer have one of my favourite views on my daily walks.
In winter, the winds off Huron cause the snow to blow across the road and form some serious drifts.

With Genesee & Wyoming's purchase of the Providence & Worcester, that railroads image is slowly being phased out. It still looks like old times here at Worcester, but for how much longer the 3902 and the sanding tower will continue to sport the independent colors and logo is anyone's guess. Unfortunately, this is one of the railroads I never paid much attention to, due to a combination of my work hours, and assuming (like most other people), that it would be around in the future to shoot when I got a chance. Change is around the corner already, with the first repainted P&W engine, B39-8 3906, resting inside the engine house, and the P&W sign on the engine house already replaced with a G&W one.
When walking through the dark sometimes it’s necessary to borrow hope from others around us.
