You change me
I fall in love with myself by your side
I want to be your fingers, your eyes
I want to bring the light out in everything around
You change me
I didn't know I really was a bird
My song was just too quiet to be heard
You came, you cut me open and it burst into the air
And if we are here for a while
Then who needs forever?
If I'm just a cloud in your sky
Let the wind blow
And change me
You change me
With foreign waters you surround my soul
You put me on the waves and I'm afloat
I rise above the fear
And I'm not afraid to fall
And if we are here for a while
Then who needs forever?
If I'm just a cloud in your sky
Let the wind blow
And change me
Watching the Tree creepers nest today and it was lovely to see them going in and out , managed to get this change over shot, they move so quickly most of my shots were just blurs !! x
(101/366) I brought back 2 more stones from the Hook peninsula in Wexford to add to my collection of "lucky stones" on the mantelpiece (the flat yellow one left of centre & the purple one behind it). I've 24 in total now, all from beaches in Ireland. They don't seem to be bringing me much good luck lately but hopefully that will change soon & a new buyer for our house will come along.

Wind of Change
I follow the Moskva
And down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change
The world is closing in
And did you ever think
That we could be so close, like brothers
The future′s in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
Walking down the street
And distant memories
Are buried in the past forever
I follow the Moskva
And down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a storm wind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change
Something for Nothing by RUSH:
Waiting for the winds of change,
To sweep the clouds away,
Waiting for the rainbow's end,
To cast its gold your way,
Countless ways,
You pass the days.
Waiting for someone to call,
And turn your world around,
Looking for an answer,
To the question you have found,
Looking for,
An open door.
You don't get something for nothing,
You can't have freedom for free,
You won't get wise,
With the sleep still in your eyes,
No matter what your dreams might be.
What you own is your own kingdom,
What you do is your own glory,
What you love is your own power,
What you live is your own story,
In your head is the answer,
Let it guide you along,
Let your heart be the anchor,
And the beat of your song.
"Here I am, just like I said I would be. I'm your friend, just like you think it should be!"
Bom dia!

♫ I see the sky changing
Reminds me of my changing
Wish I could tie me a rope 'round the sun
'Cause I am not done changing
Time's been talking to me
Whispering in my ear
Saying "Follow your heart
'Til it tears you apart"
But hearts keep changing
Hearts keep changing ♫

On a cloudy afternoon, Trona 2006 leads a train into Searles. Here the crew will pick up a coal train to return to the plant in Trona.
Taken in April of 2025, in less than a year so much has changed for this railroad. At the time it was known that Trona was looking for replacement power, and later that year they would lease two SD60s and an SD60M from UP. The addition of SD60s to the roster would see the former UP SD40s getting scrapped. Around the same time, the lead motor in this photo would get sold to a leasing company, though it is currently still at the railroad's shops being repaired. While it certainly seemed like the replacements were coming soon for the rest of the roster, or so one would think, a completely unexpected turn happened.
As a lot of you may already know, rumor has been recently going around Trona will be ceasing operations in the coming months. With global competition and other economic challenges, such as government regulations, both soda ash and boric acid production at Searles Valley Minerals has become much more expensive. With energy costs being around half of the cost of production for the company, and rising prices, SVM has to permanently lay off hundreds of employees. To my understanding, the main plant employs about 540 people, 300 or more will be laid off. With this also comes a huge cut in production, and in an announcement it was stated this would cause the shutdown of Trona and the Argus Cogeneration Plant. Unfortunately, it seems there is really no way out for Searles Valley Minerals, and unfortunately this might be the nail in the coffin for the town. With most of Trona already being a ghost town, and the company being in this state, I can only pray for the best for the residents.
The driver of 150270 changes ends at Penarth station ready to run back towards Cardiff. I had hoped to grab a 769 here but both trains to arrive during my brief visit were Class 150's. 2K04 18:48 Penarth to Caerphilly.
I've been through many redecorations and demolishing homes and I have a bad habit of not taking photos of them before I change it...so here's a very recent previous one :)
Having just sheltered from a passing squall in Charlie's Cave near Sunnyside Beach in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, the sun came back out and I took a moment to dry off a bit and get this image. Just west of this location is Logie Head and after that point, the rocks much more resemble the ones around Portknockie. Here the rock structure is more like that found at Sandend. The change is so sudden and distinct.
After charging in the creek after salmon and missing on several swats, this lad decided to take a moment and reevaluate his fishing style…while also contemplating switching over to eating old fat Italian guys!
From the archives and taken on 28 July, 2019 at Katmai National Park, Alaska.
The colours changed as sunrise approached, no tidal pools but rippled sand added texture. Just before sunrise on my local beach.
CN L517 heads south through Ivanhoe with a GTW GP9r, CN SD60F, and a CN SD40-2. Originally the SD60F was supposed to lead but they put the GTW unit on the front.
Wisconsin & Southern's Janesville bound freight, eases around the curve in Milton's yard limits on a beautiful autumn afternoon. This was the last time these trees were this vibrant with autumn's color and I'm hopeful one day they will be again, in this changing climate we live in.

Autumn 2016
The very last few minutes of August as it says farewell to storm chasing season and greets September 1 for aurora chasing season.

It's been too hard living
But I'm afraid to die
'Cause I don't know what's up there
Beyond the sky
It's been a long
A long time coming, but I know
A change gon' come

It's fun to watch the leaves change to their brief autumn wardrobe. There's so much green, then around the corner behind a friend's house is this flaming small tree showing off . . .
It was quite beautiful glowing in the late afternoon sun.

With the rest of the country basking in record temperatures, in Scotland it was time to get ready for winter and a change of plumage

Many thanks to all those who take the time to comment on my photos. It is truly appreciated.

Being able to walk the shoreline nearly every day provides an enlightening perspective on natural cycles of change.
I don't think it's good for our mental health to grow up in a world of static flat rectangles. It disconnects us from the spirit of the universe.
Winter gives up its coat reluctantly, begrudgingly in the Northwoods, but provides transitional interest otherwise not seen. I thought I would indulge in a few shots reflecting such prior to the true emergence of spring...still a bit removed. After all, it beats watching paint dry...although I always felt some value could be found in that activity as well...;-).
This first is the road to my home...a road obviously less travelled indeed.
