50 009 Conqueror alongside the Kennet and Avon at Bridge 99 near Crofton at the head of 1C26, the 09:45 Paddington - Newquay
This was taken in the middle of the swinging bridge as I was holding on for dear life. Luckily the view was more spectacular than my fear was.
The swinging bridge elevation is 5282 ft.
Have a great day and thank you for stopping by!

AMTK #165 assaults the 3.5% grade of Raton Pass at Wootton with #3, the westbound Southwest Chief for Los Angeles.
The history of Raton Pass as a route over the Sangre de Cristo Mountains dates back to 1822, when the Santa Fe Trail opened up, linking Missouri with Santa Fe, then controlled by Mexico. The crossing has played host to Stephen Kearny's "Army of the West" during the Mexican-American War, which laid claim on New Mexico Territory from Mexico, and Union forces during the New Mexico Campaign of the Civil War.
After the Civil War, Richens L. Wootton opened a toll road over Raton Pass and made drastic improvements of the crossing. Wootton's toll road would last until the railroad arrived in the late 1870s. The AT&SF beat the Denver and Rio Grande to Raton, nearly resulting in bloodshed between the two companies. By 1880, the Santa Fe had reached Albuquerque, and by 1885, Los Angeles.

My first attempts with a macro lense. I liked how the compostion worked out which makes it even more annoying that the beetle's eye is not in focus :-).
Princessa and Daddykins are back with another team banger <3 , showcasing our undying, everlasting, magical love. There is not a single person or thing in existence that I love more than my Princessa. Her beautiful intricate mind, her stunning and overwhelming beauty, her consistently original and never-ending creativity, her wonderful heart in which she overflows me with love, she's the literal complete package deal and the best thing that has ever happened to me. There's something special about falling in love with your best friend. You know that person is going to have your back through thick and thin, high waters, and the hardest times. We fell in love before we became an official couple and we cared for each other before our first "I Love You's." There's nothing in this entire world I wouldn't do for her and without her, there is no world for me. I'm proud to call her my happy ever after, the mother of our future kids, the person I want to build a future with, the lovely woman that will never leave my side. Thank you for holding me down, my love. I don't deserve you, but I thank God for blessing me with his most trusted, beautiful angel to walk by my side through life. You are my equal in everything and my number one in all things. I love you, gorgeous. Thank you so much for being you.

South Maitland Railways 10 class locomotive Number 18 is doing the lions share of the work as it leads 5917 over the top of Caledonia Bank on the South Maitland Railway.
I love walking around Fareham Creek which is at the top of Portsmouth Harbour.
This was where King William the Conqueror's reserve Norman Army landed in 1066. The Normans marched the 20 miles from here to attack and capture Winchester as Winchester was the Anglo Saxon Capital of England.
Hike-a-thon | Press L to view in lightbox (must see large!)
I went to summit Mt. Si with my hiking buddies Ryan and Travis after work today. It was an ass kicker! It was 3,900 ft at its highest point. The elevation gain from the trail head was 3,150 ft over 4 miles. That's pretty steep in my book.
There were a couple of setbacks on our trip to the top. I almost fainted 15 minutes into the hike. :D I'm not sure what it was, but it wasn't fun.
We had to hurry up to the top to catch sunset which was our main goal, and we got there just in time. We roughly had 5 minutes before the sun dipped into the horizon.
We waited until the end of the nautical twilight, around 9:20ish at night to hike down. It was so much easier and took us half the time.

We had a fabulous, FABULOUS holiday in Scotland, and I normally don't put up a photo from a particular shoot unless I have processed them all.
We have been back a fortnight and I am still ploughing through them as I took over 5000 shots!!
Scotland's decision to say no to independence was the excuse I needed to start posting.
The inscription on the front of this Royal Marine Commando statue is "UNITED WE CONQUER" and I would have put up a front facing photo, but this particular one is my fave.
I thought United We Conquer was very apt for Scotland's historical decision.
The Royal Marine Commando's were formed late in WWII and the chaps that were chosen for this unit were literally dropped into the Ben Nevis Range (where the UK's highest mountain is)to start their intensive training.
The statues actually face the point where they were dropped off and I believe the Royal Marines still use this area for training.
We were here on a Summer's day and as you can see it looks very menacing.
I have been all over the World, but the weather in the Highlands of Scotland changes faster than anything I have seen.
As well as the statues there is a memorial garden for those that have served with this unit. It made me cry seeing all the youngsters that have fallen.
Anyway, I am back and with some gorgeous shots to be posted of the Highlands.
