The city lights of Melbourne glimmer in the background as Metro Trains ECOM consist 633M-634M-EV120-586M-585M slowly rolls out of the Western Portal of the Metro Tunnel near South Kensington as test train 7641 to Sunshine, marking the completion of their first trip through the tunnel in a 5-car configuration.
The train had previously travelled through the Tunnel as a 7-car consist with EV120 at the rear (flic.kr/p/2qEJwbZ) prior to the Comeng sets being modified to allow operation with EV120 in the centre of the train, including removal of trailer cars 1167T & 1143T (I think making them the first two carriages that have travelled through the Metro Tunnel and since been scrapped). 12/7/25

"Evening Walk" A couple enjoy the company of one another walking the grounds of Tsaritsyno in Moscow, Russia. Tsaritsyno was built at the request of Catherine the Great by one of her most imaginative architects as a lavish imperial palace. She visited the site in 1785 while construction was under way and declared she was not satisfied and it should be rebuilt. A young colleague of the lead architect, Kazakov, could not bare the thought and continued work on the palace. After 10 years, and with no additional funds, the palace and grounds were left incomplete. Only recently has the city of Moscow restored the palace and grounds, including completion of buildings that were to be originally built. Some Moscovites enjoy the restoration, perhaps an equal number think that the unfinished grounds provided a more natural environment for a walk (hundreds of trees were removed in the restoration). For me, it is a favorite place to visit when in Moscow.
Well I've managed to do a 52 week project. Somewhere though it seems that I might have put two images in for one week. I think next year I will have to make sure I shoot my 52 on a certain day so there shouldn't be any mistakes.
The completion of loading 76 cars of Peabody coal is ever so slowly approaching as we eagerly await the chase west in the quickly falling sunshine. Getting to see and hear these unique motors in action is definitely different compared to the cookie cutter units that ply the rails of today across the country.

Chiltern Railways Class 168/2 DMU 168218 have just arrived with the 1D18 London Marylebone to Stratford-upon-Avon service and waits to form the 1H47 11:35 return working.
At the time of my visit, work on the new footbridge at Stratford-upon-Avon station was nearing completion. In response to the historic nature of the existing station buildings and footbridge, together with the arrangement of canopies and platforms, this latest development has provided a new separate lift, stairs and bridge construction to the north of the existing facilities. The new bridge has incorporated a number of heritage style features to best blend with the existing architecture. It is clad in red brick with buff brick detailing. The painted steel span matches the existing bridge, dagger-board canopies are provided over the lift exits and pyramid standing seam roofs top the lift shafts.

St Michael's Wing (1893) of the Hofburg Palace, facing Michaelerplatz (St Michael's Square)
'St. Michael's Wing was also planned by Joseph Emanuel Fischer von Erlach, and it serves as the connection between the Winter Riding School and the Imperial Chancellery Wing. However, because the old Imperial Court Theatre (Burgtheater) stood in the way, these plans remained unrealized until Ferdinand Kirschner built the wing from 1889 to 1893, utilizing a slightly altered plan.
After the completion of St. Michael's Square, two sculpted fountains were installed on the façade of the wing: Power at Sea by Rudolf Weyr and Power on Land by Edmund Hellmer.
The wing is named in reference to St. Michael's Church on the opposite side.' [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hofburg]
Completion of Gaudi's magnum opus is expected in 2020—previously unresolved engineering problems having been worked out.

Internamente l'impianto romanico è rimasto, anche se gran parte degli interni (navata centrale, cupola, transetto) sono dovuti a successivi interventi rinascimentali. Alcune delle cappelle laterali sono state successivamente affrescate in stile gotico.

I love these abandoned furniture/appliance finds. Mind you, I think that it's horrible that people dump their old crap like this. But in rural America, THIS is our "art in public places!" ;)
BTW, this shot completes another one:

Taking pictures a tool (camera), not a photographer.
The choice of tool limits the possibilities.
Experience allows him (instrument) less and less to limit their capabilities.
The ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...
The moment of observation is the real find ...
Training and mastering it defies. Training leads to poor imitations of the original.
Often the result should ripen, like wine. Although time is the understanding of the mind, therefore it is very speculative.
The meaning of all this is the process!
Find someone who inspires shooting the camera!

Often we are visited by thoughts that may reveal something unknown ... Our mind many times tries to solve a problem with known methods ... This is its main mistake! The path of the heart opens the doors that appear in our path. It is a pity that not everyone has the courage to insert the keys that are always with us ...

This is the 3rd and last photo of the series that I took last summer at the Edro III shipwreck in Pegeia (or Peyia), Cyprus. In case you are interested, the two previous photos are Rusty Calmness and Monochrome
I was lucky enough to get a beautiful sunset with some interesting clouds in the sky. I was waiting for the sun to hide behind the clouds, but there were a lot of people at the site while I was taking the shot. Therefore I decided to lower both the highlights and shadows in post-processing, to create silhouettes of the ship and the remaining foreground features on the right.
After the completion of the new West Harbor in Hagnau, the buoy fields were dismantled. During a visit there, I noticed that the buoys had not yet been completely removed, but were currently stored near the shore next to the harbor. A very exciting subject, but unfortunately, one that can only be photographed in the currently rather unspectacular southeast direction...
The estimated completion date of the Howard Street tunnel project came out recently, we have just mere weeks until CSX will be back to normal. One thing that I overlooked quite a bit over these past few months was the reroutes over NS that bypassed the tunnel. I've done my best over the past few months to get some coverage of them on the Lurgan branch and other segments between Philly and Cherry Run. Today M405 was tasked with picking up a shopped car off a RIP track in Chambersburg on foreign rails. After going to get it, it was discovered the brakes were seized. Thus it was left there and it pushed the 405's arrival into Hagerstown just after sunset. With wanning light of these wanning reroutes, I parked my booty under a tree and waited in the cool September evening air. The train skirted by, into the evening, just as this interesting period in CSX history is going...

for my soulfriend, Evelyn, Saanich, BC... this just came to me this morning while I processed this remarkable rhododendron tree... who knows where I'll go with it! This tree was the first thing I saw when I looked out the back window from the suite that was ours in their house. It was near midnight; but a light was shining on the tree. One look and I knew it was so right to be there and that the rest of our time would be just as beautiful.

Fort Lauderdale is a city in the U.S. state of Florida, 28 miles (45 km) north of Miami. It is the county seat of Broward County. As of the 2010 census, the city had a population of 165,521. It is a principal city of the Miami metropolitan area, which was home to an estimated 6,012,331 people at the 2015 census.
The city is a popular tourist destination, with an average year-round temperature of 75.5 °F (24.2 °C) and 3,000 hours of sunshine per year. Greater Fort Lauderdale which takes in all of Broward County hosted 12 million visitors in 2012, including 2.8 million international visitors. The city and county in 2012 collected $43.9 million from the 5% hotel tax it charges, after hotels in the area recorded an occupancy rate for the year of 72.7 percent and an average daily rate of $114.48. The district has 561 hotels and motels comprising nearly 35,000 rooms. Forty six cruise ships sailed from Port Everglades in 2012. Greater Fort Lauderdale has over 4,000 restaurants, 63 golf courses, 12 shopping malls, 16 museums, 132 nightclubs, 278 parkland campsites, and 100 marinas housing 45,000 resident yachts.
Fort Lauderdale is named after a series of forts built by the United States during the Second Seminole War. The forts took their name from Major William Lauderdale (1782–1838), younger brother of Lieutenant Colonel James Lauderdale. William Lauderdale was the commander of the detachment of soldiers who built the first fort. However, development of the city did not begin until 50 years after the forts were abandoned at the end of the conflict. Three forts named "Fort Lauderdale" were constructed; the first was at the fork of the New River, the second at Tarpon Bend on the New River between the Colee Hammock and Rio Vista neighborhoods, and the third near the site of the Bahia Mar Marina.
The area in which the city of Fort Lauderdale would later be founded was inhabited for more than two thousand years by the Tequesta Indians. Contact with Spanish explorers in the 16th century proved disastrous for the Tequesta, as the Europeans unwittingly brought with them diseases, such as smallpox, to which the native populations possessed no resistance. For the Tequesta, disease, coupled with continuing conflict with their Calusa neighbors, contributed greatly to their decline over the next two centuries. By 1763, there were only a few Tequesta left in Florida, and most of them were evacuated to Cuba when the Spanish ceded Florida to the British in 1763, under the terms of the Treaty of Paris (1763), which ended the Seven Years' War. Although control of the area changed between Spain, United Kingdom, the United States, and the Confederate States of America, it remained largely undeveloped until the 20th century.
The Fort Lauderdale area was known as the "New River Settlement" before the 20th century. In the 1830s there were approximately 70 settlers living along the New River. William Cooley, the local Justice of the Peace, was a farmer and wrecker, who traded with the Seminole Indians. On January 6, 1836, while Cooley was leading an attempt to salvage a wrecked ship, a band of Seminoles attacked his farm, killing his wife and children, and the children's tutor. The other farms in the settlement were not attacked, but all the white residents in the area abandoned the settlement, fleeing first to the Cape Florida Lighthouse on Key Biscayne, and then to Key West.
The first United States stockade named Fort Lauderdale was built in 1838, and subsequently was a site of fighting during the Second Seminole War. The fort was abandoned in 1842, after the end of the war, and the area remained virtually unpopulated until the 1890s. It was not until Frank Stranahan arrived in the area in 1893 to operate a ferry across the New River, and the Florida East Coast Railroad's completion of a route through the area in 1896, that any organized development began. The city was incorporated in 1911, and in 1915 was designated the county seat of newly formed Broward County.
Fort Lauderdale's first major development began in the 1920s, during the Florida land boom of the 1920s. The 1926 Miami Hurricane and the Great Depression of the 1930s caused a great deal of economic dislocation. In July 1935, an African-American man named Rubin Stacy was accused of robbing a white woman at knife point. He was arrested and being transported to a Miami jail when police were run off the road by a mob. A group of 100 white men proceeded to hang Stacy from a tree near the scene of his alleged robbery. His body was riddled with some twenty bullets. The murder was subsequently used by the press in Nazi Germany to discredit US critiques of its own persecution of Jews, Communists, and Catholics.
When World War II began, Fort Lauderdale became a major US base, with a Naval Air Station to train pilots, radar operators, and fire control operators. A Coast Guard base at Port Everglades was also established.
On July 4, 1961 African Americans started a series of protests, wade-ins, at beaches that were off-limits to them, to protest "the failure of the county to build a road to the Negro beach". On July 11, 1962 a verdict by Ted Cabot went against the city's policy of racial segregation of public beaches.
Today, Fort Lauderdale is a major yachting center, one of the nation's largest tourist destinations, and the center of a metropolitan division with 1.8 million people.
