A huge autumn leaf was nestled in blades of green grass in our backyard. A macro seemed to be most fitting as the sunlight gave backlighting to the leaf. Temperatures in the fifties early this morning. Signs of seasonal changes are beginning to appear here in north Alabama. - Morgan County, Alabama - 2017.

All hands on deck! The Mystic Realms is such a wide and magical plane that the cold weather faeries and creatures can use an extra help to welcome the changes of Winter!
Noor always gets the Faun Flu when Winter comes, but she will never refuse to help!

"Rules of Change" by Neil Young
Out of balance, money grows
Corporations take control
Halls of justice got this wrong
Life cannot be owned
Halls of justice leave a hollow ring inside
When I try to forget
Things I know that no one knows but me
Wrong side of right, right side of wrong

On a cold, wet Saturday night in Bathurst, up SSR Dubbo to Botany Fletcher's service 8148 lead by FIE001+FIE002+FIE003 is seen standing at the platform whilst a crew change is taking place.
Part of a flock of about a dozen Bearded Tits collecting grit from the path to help digest their winter seed diet. I could hear all the pinging but was looking at the reed tops rather than the path. Unfortunately not much detail in this shot, but it gives a better idea of the behaviour than my other closer shots.
With all the recent flurry of photos of the final trains to run on this unaltered single track stretch if street running I figured I'd edit up a few more from last summer's pilgrimage since I couldn't make it for the last runs.
Here is another look at South Shore train 508 (the railroad was running their weekend schedule on the observed Monday holiday) that left South Bend at 5:45 PM 45 minutes prior to when I took this shot at 5:30 PM. Yes, you can travel through time on the South Shore Line! Are there any other commuter lines in the country where you cross a time zone boundary?
Anyway, the standard train of Nippon Sharyo Electric MUs is led by #106, one of the single ended cab units from the 2001 order of 10 similar cars, the newest of the single level fleet most of which date from 1982-1983 though 14 more are a decade newer than that.
They have just snaked through the famous s-curve on 11th Street between Lafayette St. and Cedar St. at about MP 33.8 and are climbing the hill toward me at the corner of Spring Street. Dominating the background is abandoned Spanish Revival style circa 1925 First Christian Church building. I framed this scene up intentionally like this to highlight the historic church which has since been demolished to allow for the straightening of this curve in conjunction with the double track project that is underway forever altering this classic scene.

Nice representation of the coming change of season. Summer on the left, autumn on the right. Sylvia Hotel, Vancouver.
Deansgate in Manchester showing an interesting juxtaposition between the old red brick goods warehouse dating back to the victorian era and the modern glass skyscrapers which are now dominating the skyline.

Spent Saturday morning playing in the rain enjoying some gorgeous waterfalls and looking for fall colors. Wahclella falls is one of my favorites and still impresses me each time I visit. Color is the gorge is not quit at its prime, but beautiful none the less!
Happy Monday my friends and thanks for looking!
Eastern Sierra, California
A snowy Carson Peak looms over the colorful aspens in the lower Rush Creek drainage. An early winter storm had dropped snow on the higher elevations the night before.

I wonder how this juvenile Red-winged Blackbird is doing, whether that growth on its beak was a symptom of something wrong with it or not.
Di solito amo fotografare più i cani che i gatti... ma in questo caso la luce era molto particolare ed ho fatto un'eccezione... La foto mi sembrava quasi in 3D, grazie alle zampe che escono dalla "cornice"...
Era l'ultima immagine di oggi (tra l'altro, di archivio, scattata sull'isola d'Elba la scorsa primavera). Passo e chiudo. Buona serata :D
Sadly these iconic windmills are being pulled down all over Outback Australia to make way for ground-level solar water pumps. One renewable energy replacing another? Give me the wind any day.

I've noticed the sky is changing due to the position of the sun. It is rising further and further to the south. I love this time of year, the sunrises are always so amazing.
Normally, BNSF's Longmont Switch power has been a pair of SD70MACs. However, the crew was notified by the trainmaster to swap power with the Buck Local as the Buck Local needed their SD70MACs to bring cars up from Denver later in the day. So for one day, ex-Burlington Northern GP39-2 No. 2700 and BNSF GP39-3 No. 2618 can be seen powering the Longmont Switch north up Atwood Street in Longmont, Colorado on February 18, 2021
The last several days have been ones of significant change in the countryside around our town. Just last week, this bean field was a dark green; this morning, it shows the change of the season as it has yellowed and will soon begin the drying process that will result in harvest next month.
Many trees are already showing reds, yellows, and golds as they begin the ever-hastening lurch toward full fall colors.
The habits of wildlife are in full change mode as well. Deer are largely absent as they can read in the Star Tribune that bow season starts this Saturday, followed by other opportunities for them to be shot by two-legged pursuers.
Waterfowl are doing practice runs for migration as they fly high overhead from one body of water to another. Small songbirds are gorging themselves on seeds and berries as they load up for the trip south.
I even noted an old photographer headed to Shalom, our great thrift store, to update his autumn wardrobe, where he will splurge and buy the latest warm fashions for $3 each, which will look an awful lot like his last year's fashion.
If you like the change of seasons in Minnesota, this is a good time. If you find yourself dreading the coming winter, I already like you.
