A link to a lengthy and spectacular day - night transitional tiime-lapse of this to follow soon.
I visited the island of La Palma (Canary Islands) in Oct. 2015 to attend the "Astromaster" advanced landscape - astrophotography timelapse workshop.
This is a view at blue hour (about mid-way through the timelapse) looking into the Caldera de Taburiente from the rim not far from the Observatorio Roque de Los Muchachos, as we prepared for another astrophotography session. The winds were extremely strong and variable and so a long exposure just wasn't possible.

I spent a couple of days in Nottingham this week due to a combination of family commitments and trying to cheer up an old buddy who's currently not quite as mobile as he'd like to be. Anyhow a more than pleasant day was spent revisiting the spots of my youth trying to secure a few pics and hopefully avoiding some of the mistakes I made 40 odd years ago.
This shot catches Freightliner Shed 66556 restarting from just south of Toton Yard and passing the level crossing on Station Road, Long Eaton that once served the station of the same name - that is before it was closed in January 1967 and the station formerly known as Sawley Junction became the "new" Long Eaton station.
The old LMS footbridge is still in situ, and surprisingly being given a repaint which suggests it's going to be around for a while yet, despite the open-lattice face which isn't exactly flavour of the month with Network Rail. The old station used to lie beyond the footbridge although pretty well all signs of it have now been obliterated and it would be hard to tell one previously existed.
Interestingly enough the Shed, working the 12.13 Leeds FLT - Southampton FLT (4O95), had been snapped not too many minutes earlier at Sandiacre just to the north of Toton Yard. The train typically has to wait time before threading the busy complex of lines around Trent Junction and, due to its length, is stopped a mile or so away to avoid fouling the two busy road crossings in Long Eaton. We were able to use this to our advantage and secure the two shots which, given freight was thin on the Erewash Valley that day, was helpful.
Quite a nice cloud formation here so I put on the 16-35 lens and went as wide as it would go - the lady wasn't trying to hide but rather manage her hair that was blowing in the sudden gust of wind - thankfully not a problem I had to deal with.

Excuse my delay over the next three weeks with comments and faves on your wonderful photos my fine flicker friends....I am flying out today to LA and am goin' roadtrippin' across the southwestern part of the US - California, Arizona, New Mexico - maybe a little bit of Utah. Wish me luck :)
I was just leaving a local restaurant when two separate thunderstorms were moving in from the west on Austin just as the sun was setting. The converge of the storm clouds with the setting sun afforded me this amazing view. Fortunately, I had my trusty iphone 14 and was able to capture (in an imperfect way) this celestial spectacle.
I almost preferred this shot to my 'classic Elgol' shot - all thanks to the well placed cloud on the walk in!
