We were decending through the cloud layer, the setting sun fell behind the clouds but the reflection was still strong on the ocean so I snapped this shot.
It's actually sharp enough to make out details of Downtown Del Mar, California. (may need to view large)

Hoje omito minhas palavras,

...were just like a prophecy for what was to happen to the passenger connections on this line.
When heading for the second week of our stay in Romania, we knew that the line we were to stay by in Leordina, was up to have some rough times. Due to the bad condition of the tracks, the heavy class 60 diesels from Craiova were to be replaced with lighter and more modern Siemens Desiro trainsets in the fall of 2024.
Even that didn't happen though, as I have learned from the posts of Martin, who we had met in Sighetu Marmației. Appearently, the traffic on the line is to be completely suspended - possibly due to a deal with the local bus operators, who paid the CFR not to appear here anymore.
Anyways, we therefore say goodbye to this very beautiful railway line in northern Transilvania, with this picture, showing 60-0881 with the regio train R4652 from Sighetu Marmației to Vișeu de Jos, which was slowly nearing the passenger stop Petrova.

A lovely Saturday afternoon walk through the clouds. I love it out here when the weather is like this - it's like walking through a dream. Visibility was very low - only a dozen or so metres. It was a lovely cool change from the hot weather we've been having lately.
No doubt a portent of a life changing event according to some but to me it's just nature being surprisingly magnificent. The things you see waiting for a train (or two).

Wolfgangsee is a lake in Austria that lies mostly within the state of Salzburg and is one of the best known lakes in the Salzkammergut resort region. The municipalities on its shore are Strobl, St. Gilgen with the villages of Abersee and Ried as well as the market town of St. Wolfgang in the state of Upper Austria. The town and the lake are named after Saint Wolfgang of Regensburg, who, according to legend, built the first church here in the late 10th century.
The Wolfgangsee stretches about 10.5 kilometres from the northwest to the southeast. It is divided into two parts by a peninsula, called die Enge (the Narrow), situated roughly in the middle of its southern shore opposite St. Wolfgang, where the breadth is no more than 200 metres. The western portion of the lake at St. Gilgen is known as the Abersee.
The lake has an area of about 12.9 to 13.1 km² and is completely surrounded by the Salzkammergut mountain range. On the northern side, the Schafberg is located. A rack railway, the Schafbergbahn leads up to the summit at 1,782 m. Due to the steep shore at its foot only a footpath connects St. Wolfgang and the village of Ried with St. Gilgen along the Falkensteinwand, the set of the Bergpsalmen ("mountain psalms") lyric anthology written by Joseph Viktor von Scheffel in 1870. In the south and southwest of the Wolfgangsee lies the Osterhorngruppe, with heights up to 1,800 metres. Directly south of St. Gilgen rises the Zwölferhorn (1,521 m), which can be visited by cable car.
The settlements around the lake, especially St. Wolfgang and St. Gilgen are popular resort towns, mainly in summer. The Gasthaus Weißes Rössl at St. Wolfgang is the set of the famous 1897 operetta The White Horse Inn by Ralph Benatzky, performed throughout the world and filmed several times. Furthermore the area around the lake was the location of several Heimatfilm movies, suggesting an untouched alpine idyll. As the Wolfgangsee has been the vacation resort of former German chancellor Helmut Kohl for many years, the film director Christoph Schlingensief made the lake a site of his Chance 2000 project of 1998 when he invited "Germany's four million unemployed" to take a bath in the lake and flood Kohl's residence.

About a 20 minute cable ride from Grindelwald Town up to First with stunning views all the way up.
Many thanks for your visit :)

With very little wind about... and clouds this groovy… I simply had to strap on my Sigma 10-20 ultra-wide yesterday… and go off in search of something to reflect them in!
I really love the way that everything converges towards the center here… it kindof sucks you in… don’t you think!?
