Metra's MILW heritage unit leads a outbound train under the signals at Tower B12 in Franklin Park, IL. With a new relay case installed and construction equipment on site, the days of this signal bridge may be numbered.
There's nothing constant in the world,
all ebb and flow, and every shape that's born
bears in its womb the seeds of change.

I took this photo at the Monahans Sandhills State Park at Monahans, TX this past Saturday night while traveling through west Texas.
The park has sand dunes up to 70 feet (21 m) high which are constantly changing with the wind and are very fun to slide down on during the day (the park has sand discs for rent).
This image is a merge of 6 different photos in order to get the light painting right by myself.
Took this at Raglan, the sun had just gone done. Really the title relates to watching the day change to night but also I got made redundant (due to finish in June, company closing also) a few months ago and have found a new job so big exciting changes ahead for me and a major relief!
This image is a big thanks to Sonja who has sent me some encouraging words whilst I was looking for work-cheers-no pink sorry though-hope its OK :-)
I noticed the clouds breaking during a rainy day in St Ives. I headed up to the bus station (probably the best bus station in England for the views) and hung around for about 20 minutes, capturing some amazing, changeable lighting. The rainbow skating across the sea was a bonus. Thanks for viewing.
As the social media landscape changes once again I'm hoping that more people return to Flickr on a regular basis, myself included. Change is routine and inevitable. Only our choices can decide whether those changes will result in good or not.

We are still here trying to play "catch-up" ...
But more importantly ... seriously, WHEN is this Blythe-A-Day group THEME of HEINZ ... ever going to come up again???

Excerpt from www.teamlab.art/ew/resonating_microcosms_mossgarden_plane...:
Moss Garden of Resonating Microcosms - Solidified Light Color, Dusk to Dawn
Ovoids that change appearance with the sunrise and sunset are laid out in the moss garden.
With sunrise, the ovoids begin to reflect the world around them. When pushed down by a person or blown by the wind, the ovoid falls back and then rises, releasing a resonating tone. The ovoids around it also respond one after another, continuing to resonate with the same tone.
As the sun sets, the ovoids shine by themselves. When an ovoid is pushed by a person or blown by the wind, it shines brightly and emits a sound tone, as it rights itself. The ovoids around it also respond one after another, emitting the same light color and sound tone that continues to resonate out.
The space of the work is interactively transformed under the influence of the wind, rain, and the behavior of the people in the space, making the environment and the people a part of the work. When the wind is quiet and people are still, the ovoids begin to flicker slowly.
teamLab is experimenting with the concept of color. The ovoids can change into a total of 61 newly-defined Solidified Light Colors.
It is said that mosses were the first terrestrial organisms to appear in a world of rocks and sand, where there was no life on land yet. As mosses and ferns appeared and forests were created, a variety of animals became able to live on land.
Since water inside cells is essential for living things, if the body lacks water, it will die. Mosses, on the other hand, are poikilohydric, meaning the water content in the cells change according to surrounding humidity levels. So moss will not die during long dry periods, and they come back to life when given water. Because mosses are poikilohydric, their color and shape change dramatically when the air is dry versus when it is wet, such as when there is rain or fog.
Tardigrades, which live in moss, also go into a non-metabolic state of dormancy when the surrounding environment becomes dry, but they revive and become active when there is water. The state that tardigrades enter, when they are neither living nor dead, is called cryptobiosis. This may cause us to consider what it means to be alive.

The residence of the summer holidays: changes in the geometric grid. Despite the tight module, each door, light, and window is different in shape, color, perspective from all others.
This image was taken just over a week ago during a explore at a local woodland.
The aim was to capture the change of seasons. The autumn colours were there however summer was still visible.
The foggy conditions helped to motivate an early start as it was still dark when I got to the location. With the fog present I knew that it was going to be a good visit.
Grace is never induced by morality or piety or even law. It comes like the best and worst of our tears: usually uninvited, uncreated, unchosen, and unexpected, a pure creation out of nothing. From there, tears do their work, if we will just allow a little secret chemistry in the soul. Such subtle solutio is already and always at work.
