I made a comment in an earlier photo that these coal trains were 75 cars long (Something I had been told) Today I decided to count - this one was 140 cars, I think that's over 16,000 tons.
RD19141. 15 inch gauge 'Atlantic' 4-4-2 COUNT LOUIS was built in 1924 by Bassett-Lowke for the wealthy Polish Count Louis Zborowski who had constructed a 15 inch gauge railway round his country estate near Canterbury in Kent. Unfortunately, the Count was killed in a motor racing accident at Monza that same year, so the locomotive was sold to the Fairbourne Railway on the Welsh coast where it was given the name COUNT LOUIS.
It was there from 1925 to 1987, but it now resides on the Evesham Vale Light Railway in Worcestershire. In September, 2018 it paid a weekend visit to the Tyseley Locomotive Works near Birmingham for their 50th open weekend.
A short length of 15 inch gauge track was laid to enable this and other locomotives to give rides to the visitors.

'Amply 74', aka US Air Force 55th Reconnaissance Wing's Boeing RC-135W 'Rivet Joint' 62-4139/OF from Offutt AFB, Nebraska crosses Field Road whilst landing at RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk.
Based on Boeing's own '739' airframe, these highly specialised SIGINT versions of the military C-135 have been in service since 1961 and with continuous upgrades are festooned with aerials plus those huge chin fairings housing sensors for gathering data from the 'Other' side.

Dust lanes seem to swirl around the core of Messier 96 in this colorful, detailed portrait of the center of a beautiful island universe. Of course M96 is a spiral galaxy, and counting the faint arms extending beyond the brighter central region, it spans 100 thousand light-years or so, making it about the size of our own Milky Way. M96, also known as NGC 3368, is known to be about 35 million light-years distant and a dominant member of the Leo I galaxy group. The featured image was taken by the Hubble Space Telescope. The reason for M96's asymmetry is unclear -- it could have arisen from gravitational interactions with other Leo I group galaxies, but the lack of an intra-group diffuse glow seems to indicate few recent interactions. Galaxies far in the background can be found by examining the edges of the picture. via NASA ift.tt/1NNvVhP

An important thing to remember is that even though pixel sizes keep getting smaller and smaller, the technology is advancing, so the smaller pixels are more efficient at collecting light. For instance, the Sony A7rII is back-illuminated which allows more photons to hit the sensor. Semiconductor technology is always advancing, so the brilliant engineers are always improving the signal/noise ratio. Far higher pixel counts, as well as better dynamic ranger, are thus not only possible, but the future!
Yes I have a Ph.D. in physics! I worked on phototranistors and photodiodes as well as an artificial retina for the blind. :)

View your artistic mission into photography as an epic odyssey of heroic poetry! Take it from Homer in Homer's Odyssey: "Tell me, O muse, of that ingenious hero who travelled far and wide after he had sacked the famous town of Troy. Many cities did he visit, and many were the nations with whose manners and customs he was acquainted; moreover he suffered much by sea while trying to save his own life and bring his men safely home; but do what he might he could not save his men, for they perished through their own sheer folly in eating the cattle of the Sun-god Hyperion; so the god prevented them from ever reaching home. Tell me, too, about all these things, O daughter of Jove, from whatsoever source you may know them. " --Samuel Butler Translation of Homer's Odyssey

Through the early parts of America’s involvement in World War II, the United States forceably moved and imprisoned over 120,000 of its Japanese citizens. They were mostly taken from the West Coast to more inland places such as Idaho, Utah, and Camp Amache in Colorado, pictured here.
The camp, near the town of Granada, was opened in August of 1942. Over its three-years of existence, nearly 10,000 Japanese-Americans were shuffled through. The population at any given time was around 7,000.
Most of the prisoners came from the Los Angeles area. The were allowed only one bag per person, and were forced to sell homes, businesses, cars, pets.
Local white residents grew resentful when the Camp built a high school for its imprisoned children. They saw this as coddling.
But though they were prisoners, the history and reality of the situation isn’t so simple to digest. For example, their high school football team was treated like any other high school team, playing against other nearby schools (and winning all but one game in three years).
Words like “prisoner” and “forceably removed” are accurate and necessary, but – as will most history – there is nuance. The white culture of the United States is replete with racism. We’ve allowed it to soak into every page of our history. But white culture, like any human culture, also has empathy, goodness, and compassion. The mixture of this hatred with goodness, even love, is difficult to parse and understand. It never pleases either “side” in any debate.
History, it seems, has no sides. It just is. We can twist and interpret it to meet our ends, but ultimately, history doesn’t give a damn about us, and we should probably just accept it as it is.
All that is left today at Camp Amache is this watertower, a rebuilt barracks, a graveyard, and a sprawling gridwork of streets. It’s open to the public, and well worth a visit – as are all of the Japanese-American interment camps.

Sorry about the slight blurriness. Once again, the snakes chose to be in an area not conducive to good photography. I wasn't about to manually adjust them either. Shortly after this photo was taken, they took turns crawling out of sight.
(they clean the street 3 times a week)…

I always have vivid dreams when I take a nap. Today, I dreamed that Lei and her hubby Andy, Charlie and I, my friend Missy and my grandmother crashed a wedding. The preacher was wearing a t-shirt with a Dodge City Red Demon on it and had an ASU Sun Devil painted on his face. A woman was speaking about how women are like rivers, ever changing.
In honor of today which is Festival of Sleep Day!

Visiting the RH&DR for the gala was Count Louis which was working up and down the line at New Romney. Obviously not a Romney loco, but was built for Louis Zborowski who was a racing driver and started the RH&DR project along with Captain Howey. Sadly Count Louis was killed in a racing accident in Monza before the Romney Hythe & Dymchurch railway opened. The loco was named after him after his death and spent most of its life at the Fairbourne railway. Taken on 13/5/23.
