Four years ago today.... I was in beautiful Melbourne Florida. Here is a SB FEC train rolling over Cane Creek. I need to get back down there. Maybe next year....
Greetings from the desert! The blooms are ready to explode. With that, comes warmer temps, too. I'm about to head for cooloer temps. :)
Christmas Candy Cane Poem about Jesus
Look at the Candy Cane
What do you see?
Stripes that are red
Like the blood shed for me
White is for my Savior
Who’s sinless and pure!
“J” is for Jesus My Lord, that’s for sure!
Turn it around
And a staff you will see
Jesus my shepherd
Was born for Me!

US Sugar Corp 148 leads the first cane train of the season from a loadout near Shawnee South toward the United States Sugar mill in Clewiston, Florida. The fully restored 4-6-2 steam engine was built by the American Locomotive Company in 1920 for the Florida East Coast Railway until it was sold 32 years later to US Sugar where it spent more than 15 years hauling sugarcane from 1952 until 1968 (I believe). Four years ago US Sugar begun restoration of the unit after it had changed private ownership a few times. On what is also the locomotive's 100th anniversary, the 148 kicked off this year's sugar season by leading the first cane train consisting of ten loaded cane cars from a loadout just North of Clewiston to the Clewiston Sugar Mill. Here the train is seen heading South paralleling a canal just after picking up the cars from the loadout. With a mostly cloudy day the sun ended up coming through as the train departed!

Anyone who knows me knows that I will basically never go to shoot any excursion (with few exceptions) and definitely never a photo freight, but after hearing 148 would run a revenue freight for the mill I certainly had to come out.
An Australian Cane Toad (Rhinella marina) from Mt Isa in north-western Queensland. An attractive species deliberately introduced into Australia and responsible for enormous ecological damage.

Third picture of the series Canes & Mud.
(Just the next day of previous photoshoot, I tryed another time for take longer exposures. Soon I will post new photos of both session.)
Magical sunrise in this beautiful place that is the Albufera of Valencia.
The image title is because during the photoshoot, surrounded by all this beauty, calm water, boat, reeds, mud, tranquility, flying birds ... every moment reminded me a lot to the great novel "Cañas y Barro" of the great Valencian writer Vicente Blasco Ibáñez, set in rural Valencia (Albufera) of the early twentieth century, the novel observes and portrays the social reality of the time and place with absolute precision.
Would like to thank this picture to my friend Javier Girbés, which helped me a lot with the location and encouraged me to know this magnificent spot.
On the technical side, say that I only used a neutral gradient three steps filter.
I hope you like it. Have a nice Sunday. :)

Do not bury your uniqueness,
because otherwise you will become another sheep of the flock
and you will be dead even before you die,
give life to your uniqueness, defend it and be proud of it,
be proud of being yourself, unique and unrepeatable.
Non seppellite la vostra unicità, perché altrimenti diventate un’altra pecora del gregge e sarete morti ancor prima di morire, date vita alla vostra unicità, difendetela e siatene fieri, siate orgogliosi di essere voi stessi, unici e irripetibili.

The Candy Cane Mountains in north west Azerbaijan are unlike anywhere else I have ever hiked. As can be seen the terrain is ridiculously arid and colourful. In fact most of the colour is made up of small fossils, maybe an inch long that when looked at closely look like I'd imagine dinosaurs teeth to look like.
My hike in these hills involved a short circuit that included the prominent knoll at the top right and another one out of sight behind that lump.
Seventh picture of the series Canes & Mud.
(Is part of a third session, dawn last Saturday, with much softer lights. What do you think about this another sunrise? Soon I will post new photos of both session.)

As the name for this fine dining restaurant suggests, the building was once a schoolhouse. In fact it was the original home of the Launceston Church Grammar School established in 1846. The Quill & Cane is now part of the large Colonial Hotel complex (formerly the Colonial Motor Inn). This attractive building was completed in 1847.
This train, on the US Sugar main line at the County Road 835 crossing, has just crossed the Okeelanta Lead at the interlocker seen in the distance. This is the second cane train to pass this spot in four minutes.
GP38 409, was originally Southern Railway 2796. It bounced all over the country before becoming USSC 409 in 2021. The unit leads a string of loaded cane cars toward the mill at Clewiston.

Morning sun sneaking up behind Cane Creek Cascades, one of six waterfalls in Fall Creek Falls State Park. Most of these falls empty into the Cane Creek Gorge which begins a short distance downstream from this location. This gorge is exceptionally impressive for a southern canyon. Formed by Cane Creek, the area is so steep and rugged that the old growth forest was never logged.
Fall Creek Falls, the park that surrounds Cane Creek Gorge, totals over 22,000 acres, making it the largest state park in Tennessee. Over 16,000 of those acres are now protected as a State Natural Area. In addition to the virgin forest here, the gorge is home to some of the last groves of eastern and Carolina hemlocks that are so far not infested with the hemlock wooly adelgid, an invasive Asian pest that has devastated much of the hemlock forest in the eastern United States.

Shot spotted and captured for Saturday Self Challenge - 30/12/2023 ----------Seasonal !!
Well , this giant Candy-Cane is stuck in the middle of Leatherhead in between Sainsburys and Costa-Coffee .
Just before Christmas I popped into Leatherhead and was struck by the lack of any decorations in the town centre - until I got to this part of the town and there this was , a great big Candy Cane Archway tall enough for people to walk under .
Update , as of 29th this is still in situ glittering away - from the bow you can just see the power lead supplying the power to all the flashing lights !!
I must admit this is such an odd thing and looking at the photo one might think this has been added in post processing - not so , the shot has been cropped square , a touch of sharpening and contrast and a frame added ---- the rest is SOOC !
For sight & sound , a very tenuous link this time --
Time Was ------------ ( Christmas Time I guess )
from the Wishbone Ash Album -- Argus ( the tenuous bit !! )
I heard them play this back in the day ( 1972 ) in The Greyhound opposite The Fairfield Halls in Croydon - Gosh , that was a concert I remember it to this day !!
