A westbound Santa Fe freight climbs Ash Hill at Klondike, California, while crossing the Mojave Desert on March 9, 1995. Powering the train is GE C40-8W No. 851, GE C44-9W No. 610 and EMD SD45-2B No. 5514.
Made by my spouse decades ago when then-Storage Technology gave away tiny chips. (If you're into geeky 'where are they now queries', Storage Tech was acquired by Sun Microsystems, which was later acquired by Oracle Corporation.)
But back to our wee 2cm chip. He is climbing a tiny piece of driftwood. That's a winter leaf or two behind him (he has very long horns or antennae, hence his gender). Bokeh balls come from a crumpled piece of foil some distance away. Tried this outdoors, but a strong wind toppled the fearless mountain goat.
I think perhaps Howard made EPROM earrings for me around the same time (see first comment).
In January 2022 I asked for help and a Flickr support hero removed both of my accounts from the Explore algorithm. I feel more relaxed and my jaw no longer hurts. I’m grateful to SmugMug for saving Flickr, and I have nothing against Explore; it just is not for me—especially during this pandemic.
The one on the bottom looks like she's climbing an invisible ladder
Hope you can see this on a large screen. The one on top is a crossbill
A westbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe freight train climbs Raton Pass at Gallinas, Colorado, on February 26, 1999, led by Santa Fe GE C40-8W No. 911 still looking pretty good in the railroad’s famous warbonnet livery.
Common Spotted Ladybird (Harmonia conformis)
I spotted this Ladybird caught in a spider web yesterday afternoon. I took a shot of it caught in the web and then set it free. It flew off my finger to the ground and beetled off to find a new home. I was interested to see that it chose to climb over anything in its way rather than go around.
It's going to be an uphill climb for this Canada Goose Gosling as he tries to make it back to his mom over rocks an stones.
Beautiful rose "Climbing Iceberg". Night shot in our garden.

The climb up the Niagara escarpment begins for both of these trains. CP 247-31 ascends the 2% percent grade up the Hamilton sub as CN A43531-31 starts to climb the grade to Copetown. Sometimes the stars align and things work out. Not a bad way to end 2020. Cheers to health, happiness, and prosperity in 2021!
67010 makes a fine sight as it climbs the bank at Llanellen heading for Cardiff. I wanted to grab another Class 67 working here before the foliage really gets going. 1V46 14:30 Manchester Piccadilly to Cardiff Central.
At Pashley Manor Gardens you will discover 11 acres of beautiful borders and vistas – the culmination of a lifetime of passion for gardening, an appetite for beauty and an admiration of the tradition of the English Country garden. These graceful gardens, on the border of Sussex and Kent, are family owned and maintained – visitors often express delight at the attention to detail displayed throughout and the intimate, peaceful atmosphere.
All the ingredients of the English Country Garden are present – sweeping herbaceous borders, ha-ha, well maintained lawns, box hedges, espaliered rose walk, historic walled garden, inspiring kitchen garden, venerable trees and the Grade I listed house as a backdrop. The gardens are a haven for wildlife – bees, butterflies and small birds as well as moor hens, ducks and a black swan. Then, of course, the plants! Borders overflowing with perennials and annuals – the look changing through the seasons, but always abundantly filled, and each garden ‘room’ planted in a different colour theme.
Pashley is also renowned for fantastic displays of tulips, roses and dahlias. Our annual Tulip Festival features more than 48,000 tulips this year! During Special Rose Week over a hundred varieties of rose swathe the walls, climb obelisks and bloom in flower beds. Then in late summer our Dahlia Days event transforms the gardens once more with bountiful, brightly coloured dahlias in every border and pot.
Add to all this a Café and Terrace with excellent garden views, serving delicious homemade lunches, scones and cakes; Sculpture and Art Exhibitions; a Gift Shop with Plant Sales; and a friendly, knowledgeable team waiting to welcome you, and the recipe for a wonderful day out is complete.
