Concord, MA.
I happened to pass by as I was returning from a trip. I couldn't resist these wonderful colors of sunset over snowy fields.
The Fontaines de la Concorde are two monumental fountains located in the Place de la Concorde in the center of Paris. The south fountain commemorates the maritime commerce and industry of France, and the north fountain commemorates navigation and commerce on the rivers of France.

In September 2014 I was home from Alaska where I was still living at the time and was headed to North Conway for another Railfans Weekend. Coinciding with that weekend was the Glory Days of the Railroad Festival that used to be held in White River Junction, VT. Pan Am was sending two business cars along with their OCS FP9s and two heritage GP9s for display. I took the opportunity to chase this special all the way north up the Conn River Line, and while most of my shots from this day are sub par I got a few keepers and a lot of memories.
PAR 1 and PAR 2 are ex Canadian National FP9s 6505 and 6516 built in 1954 and 1957 respectively by GMDD. They passed from CN to VIA Rail in 1978 before being picked up by the Conway Scenic in 1995 when they expanded into Crawford Notch. After 15 years spent hauling tourists in the White Mountains 6505 & 6516 would become PAR 1 & 2 when traded to Pan Am Railways in March 2010 for GP38 252 and GP35 216.
They are seen here shoving around the north leg of the wye east onto the Connecticut River Bridge toward West Lebanon, NH so they can turn their train to face back south. They are on the remains of the once mighty Northern Mainline that was the B&M's gateway from Boston via Nashua, Manchester and Concord. By this late date the former B&M Conn River mainline north of here was (and still is) owned by the state and operated by the Vermont Rail System to Newport and the Northern was abandoned and removed from just north of Concord to a point only a couple miles south of here in Lebanon.
Pan Am, as legacy successor to the B&M, still maintained trackage rights and was running all the way up here to WRJ three times a week back when this was taken....their last link to their legacy in the north country.

North Bridge, site of "the shot 'that heard 'round the world" in Concord, Massachusetts.
The North Bridge that visitors walk over today is actually a recent (summer of 2005) restoration of the last bridge built on this site in 1956. The 1956 bridge is the fifth bridge to occupy this hallowed ground since the time of the battle in 1775. The bridge that was there in 1775, the "battle bridge," was taken down in 1788.

Concord's North Bridge, where on April 19, 1775, colonial commanders ordered militia men to fire back at British troops for the first time. British colonial militia and minutemen killed two regular army soldiers and wounded eight more, one mortally, at the North Bridge Fight. This was the second battle of the day, after the brief fight at dawn on Lexington Common. In his 1837 poem, "Concord Hymn", thinker and author Ralph Waldo Emerson immortalized the North Bridge Fight as "the shot heard round the world". At this site also stands Daniel Chester French's well-known The Minute Man statue of 1875. Across the North Bridge, opposite The Minute Man statue is the Obelisk Monument. The Obelisk is believed to be the country's first memorial to its war casualties. Close by is the grave of the two regular army soldiers killed at the bridge.

Seascaping at Victor Harbor, South Australia. I've always found this spot a tricky shoot - the waves are magnificent but also relentless, and it is difficult to stop spray hitting the lens mid-exposure.
One of my thoughtful neighbors, gifted me a plateful of these delicious, concord grapes, he fresh-picked from his back garden!
