Ferns and mosses on a fallen tree, deep in the heart of the Styx Valley in southern Tasmania.
The area has been extensively logged but a tiny remnant of the original cool temperate rainforest exists as a reserve for big trees.
The Big Tree reserve is easily accessible to Hobart - only slightly over an hour's drive to be surrounded by a forest so much older than you. If you visit Mount Field National Park then it behooves you to do the extra 30mins up the road into the Styx Reserve. After a visit it's not hard to see why the logging of these forests has been a source of unrest for many years.

Buen fin de semana, habrá que disfrutar del sol antes de que nos vuelva a abandonar...!!

I was messing with my brother's boots today. :) They were just sitting there, so I put them on and took some pics. They were a little big (wow, was that an oxymoron?!), can you tell?? :P I think I might have to get some of my own... just about 5-6 sizes smaller... and you know... in women's style.

I learn from Roy Strom's website that much of the company's early success depended on their relationship with the Milwaukee Road railroad and that this logo is derived from the logo for the Milwaukee Road's Hiawatha Line.

Richborough Cooling Towers at night. The orange glow is from the lights of Pfizer on the other side.
At the time, i had just been to a photography club in Margate, and was out for a drive, when i saw there was a low fog. This fog was not to the ground so you could drive under and see perfectly clearly, but any one traveling on the top deck of a double decker bus, may be restricted for view. (to give you some idea how low the fog was. This is no exageration)
There is a small road with a railway crossing, and i am parked up on a dirt track leading to farmers fields, The fog started to lift a bit when i started taking some photos, and the results from my evening are all simular to this. I picked the best one out of the bunch to display.
The only unfortunate thing is, it is very hard to show the fog. Its strange, that if i stood on a bank beside the road, i could jump up and put my hand into the fog! it was a very cold evening there and after 9 photos of 15 to 40 second exposures, i was very cold and got back in the car to warm up.

Found this hooded oriole having a ball splashing about in the water on a hot day in south Texas. It was quite the social bird, putting on a dazzling display of bathing and water splashing. The hooded oriole is one of 10 different oriole species that can be found in North America.
I know that many of us can relate to the heat these days. 107 degrees as we traveled through Colorado yesterday afternoon. The good news for us is that if we travel upwards in elevation, it gets tremendously cooler ... often by 20-25 degrees, sometimes more. I hope that everyone finds ways to cool off this summer. :-)

Those who took photos at orchid shows during general admission time know how challenging it is to get a clean, quality shot. The background is too cluttered, the light is too harsh or too weak, the exhibits are often placed too close to each other etc. After looking in frustration on my computer screen at photos taken at one show I started playing with images, and a Cool Orchids series was born :-)
No swimming pool? No problem. A rain barrel will do just fine out on the ranch. Father, son, and grandson taking a break from the Oklahoma heat.

Norfolk and Western Class J 4-8-4 #611 (Roanoke Shops 1950) is eastbound on Norfolk Southern's S Line headed from Spencer to Old Fort and Asheville via the famed 'Southern Loops.' She is approaching the diamond at Barber Junction MP S11.5 on the line from Salisbury to Asheville and MP L39.4 on the line from Winston-Salem to Charlotte they are will cross. What is now the S Line was built through here around 1858 by the Western North Carolina Railroad Company but didn't reach the Asheville area until 1879. After three bankruptcies the company finally entered the Southern Railway fold in 1894. Meanwhile the modern day L Line dates from 1898 when the Southern Railway extended the shortline North Carolina Midland Railroad (that reached as far as Mocksville from Winston-Salem and that they had acquired in 1894) 54 miles south to Mooresville.
This train was billed as 'The Blue Ridge Special' and was making a more than 300 mile round trip as NS train 957 on what was day two of the 2016 excursion season on NS...back when that was a thing. The air was cool and clear and made for some impressive steam and smoke shows all along the way.

I know this is a bit odd for me, but let me explain...
I had packed up and was heading toward the car. It had been a rather boring sunset, which was now over, and only the last glimmers of light were left on the horizon. A White-faced Heron suddenly landed on a dead tree right in front of me. I so wished it was still light out, instead of almost night - this would have been a great portrait shot. Instead, I went for the silhouette, and snapped a few before he took off.
I processed in RAW, cooled it a bit, and added 'vegnetting', just for the effect, bumped the contrast and a couple other things, and ended up with this. I thought I'd share it, just for fun.
