Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don't resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let reality be reality. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like.
-- Lao Tzu
A few more shots from this mornings walk, apologies if it feels like you've seen them all before, it feels like I'm repeating myself again :)
Sooner or later, all of us feel the need of being in a wind of change and that's Polaris feeling at the moment. Her time here is over and she's ready to go.
So, she is been singing softly to herself this lovely song all the morning: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhJnpSYCiMc
--ooOOoo--
Tarde o temprano, todos nosotros sentimos la necesidad de un cambio de aires y Polaris está justo en ese momento. Su tiempo termina y está lista para dar un nuevo aire a su vida.
Quizás por eso, lleva toda la mañana canturreando esta canción: www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhJnpSYCiMc

Labourers working on a resort construction project,
take a break and head towards their base.. situated on the neighboring island,
where food and lodging is arranged.
Recently, the Labour Ministry reluctantly announced the figures of 'legal' immigrant workers in Maldives at around 75k. Not big.. they must have emphasized, when considering the amount of projects currently underway.
But it is very big, when compared to the local population, currently at around 350k.
That is roughly 1:4 ratio of foreigner to every Maldivian citizen. Young and old included.
In some local village Islands which are in close proximity to construction sites, the figure escalate to alarming levels, which also lead to much tension between groups and hence lead to many unwanted social problems.
There are approximately, 30 newly leased resorts, 11 airports and over 60 harbour dredging projects.. in addition to the numerous building construction projects underway (or about to begin) in the Capital City and in the islands.
If this is not big, then big is certainly on the way shortly.
The Government is taking steps to develop three mega cities in the following zones.. Gulhi Falhu, Bodu Mohoraa and Ihavandhippolhu.

NS D12s light power rolls past Osman. The southern half of the siding here has seen little change over these past few months, which is quite the relief given what's happened at Lodge lately. Osman does certainly feel better in these later spring weeks, far less dreary than when the greenery had yet to return. I hope things stay the way they are here - there's certainly less to change, but that does mean if something does change... well, it won't be hard to see it.
This photo shows the climate changes taking place: I shoot this little grebe at the lakes of Colbricon, in the heart of the Dolomites, in August, at an altitude of 1927 meters, where it had nested (the couple had 2 chicks). Usually little grebes do not nest above 500 meters, and in any case in 50 years that I frequent the area I had never seen one. In the same period I saw a couple of grey herons at the Calaita lake, at over 1600 meters above sea level: even in this case I had never seen herons in the area.
Apparently the higher temperatures, especially at night, and the frequent thermal inversion are changing the habits of the fauna...
"Change here for Bridport West Bay, calling at Toller, Powerstock, Bridport, Bridport East and Bridport West Bay" Unfortunately, the branch line to Bridport closed decades ago!
A new Dorset exploration has commenced, this time following the Bridport Railway branch line from Maiden Newton to Bridport West Bay. The distance is not much over 10 miles but is already proving rather surprising and interesting. Several more exploration posts will follow in the next few weeks.
This photo shows the modern day operation at Maiden Newton Station on the Bristol to Weymouth line. Note the double track lay out that allows a passing place on what is often a single track line in Dorset. On the far platform, the 11.38 is about to depart to Weymouth. On the near platform, the 11.40 stopper awaits a token to depart north, destination Bristol Parkway.
Can you see the guard at the end of the platform? The historic photo below, posted a couple of years ago, will have been taken from the other platform, more or less directly across from where he is standing. It shows where the Bridport Branch operated from at Maiden Newton Station. It is along that trackbed that we started our exploration.

I really like the flowers in the shot here. I would like to do a full set of girls and flowers like this.

There were a number of big changes after the SOO bought the MILW and Stevens Point seen a loss of most through traffic as that was shifted to the former MILW Chicago-Twin Cities main. For awhile though the trains between the Twin Ports and Chicago continued to operate through Stevens Point. This set of power east of the roundhouse is no doubt going to be heading for the Twin Ports before long. SOO 770, CN 5215 and CNW 6580 soak up some hazy late May sun in 1986.
So I'm loving the idea of a Victoria's Secret design theme, however I'm pretty sure it will look like poop with my warm walnut tone floors, I put allot of hours into them so I have to give this more thought.............I suppose I could tint the floors so they look more reddish, painting over them is out of the question.........Maybe save the parquet floors for a future project and do some new shinny black floors ? Crazy how I dive into these without a clear vision of the finished design, that's just my process I guess..........
