Dash gets on the roof and sometimes "forgets" where to get down. He wants me to help. He seems to do it on purpose.

Power shortages caused by the early 2010's shale oil boom led to the last stand for the Dash 8's. Here, a trio of them head south at Tower 26 with a manifest headed for the Angleton Sub.

CN C40-8 2033 leads ore empties west through Iron Junction, MN. While EMDs still dominate the Proctor/Duluth trains, Dash 8s now dominate the Two Harbors trains.
With those flashy turquoise eyes, a thornbush dasher is very dashing. This one was in my yard in Portland, Texas during October 2017 and posed for a few shots.
I'll take photos of a Blue Dasher Dragonfly anytime I can - which in May through August is "any time" - but especially when one perches on a stalk of Horsetail Grass. Today, I was really in luck. My knees could bend and I was at eye-level.
Blue Dasher (Pachydiplax longipennis) is a dragonfly of the skimmer family. It is the only species in the genus Pachydiplax. It is very common and widely distributed through North America and into the Bahamas.
From a session today...one of my favorites. All the rest of the shots were your happy family pictures, but this one is kinda different. I watched them run and knew exactly how this would turn out...I'm pretty happy with it.
And, of course, it looks 10x better like this.
Female Blue Dasher.
Blue dashers are by far the most numerous dragonflies in local ponds. Even though they do not have the bright blue color I think that the markings on the females are very beautiful. For comparison a photograph of a male is in the comment box.

The intricate wing structures and patterns in dragonflies always fascinates me

Cycling is a part of life in this city. As this ghostly cyclist rode past, you can see their approach with the front light (right) and the reveal of the back light (left).
I've wanted to make this image for a long time, and planned my return at the very end of day, when you get the last of the light. The plan was for the artificial street lighting to take centre stage; watching over the passers by below. As the cyclists passed by, I was able to play with various shutter speeds, finally settling with this 25 second exposure at f|13. The result, an urban scene with three different light sources; one static street light, as if an artificial star, one relatively slowly moving in the sun, and one passing through the image completely being the cyclist.

Amtrak Dash 8-32BWH 500 leads Hiawatha train 338 through Morton Grove, IL.
Unfortunately, it seems that after serving Amtrak faithfully for more than 33 years, these units are finally nearing retirement. Chicago yard has taken delivery of some GP38-3s.
If the end really is near for the Dash-8s, they will be missed!!
The Long Dash?
Many grass skippers are so similar that I find it is impossible to positively identify grass skippers in the field. I researched and unsuccessfully attempted to identify some of the skippers that I had photographed. I found that they fitted the description for several species including the long dash. As I like the name long dash I have decided to tentatively identify them as this species until others correct me.
