From January 2013, I was sure I had processed this one before, but if I have, I can't find it. So let's call this "new".

Deep creek runs into Narrabeen Lake and is sheltered from most winds, creating great reflections. A panorama stitched from 6 portrait-mode images. (The photographer appears as a shadow in the lower left corner!)
Twilight comes early and unevenly amongst the tall mountains and deep hollows of West Virginia. While there's still bright sunlight on the background hills, at track level, we're in full shadow. As the sun loses its battle with the falling night, loaded coal train 820 (Weller (Grundy), VA to Lambert's Point/Norfolk) makes its way east through Northfork, West Virginia. A bag of ice has been jammed into one of the grab irons on the locomotive's nose, a great way to keep it frozen on a cold winter day. January 23, 2021.

Deep summer is when laziness finds respectability. ( Sam Keen)

For those of you who have often been "approached by Security," here is your LOL for the day! I took one snap of these rafts in front of a local tourist store. Instantly, two men (managers?) leaving the store, three feet from my face, are asking, "Can I help you? What do you want?" Innocently, "I am a tourist and these colors and lines are so pretty; I just wanted to take a picture." Forcefully, "You can't do that! It's against company policy. You can't do that!" Grrrrrr, what IS the problem! So, I smile and reply, "Oh well, I respect that!" I leave. I grit my teeth and drive away and think, "I should have simply stepped 12 feet off the property onto the sidewalk and used my zoom and said, "Nanny, nanny, boo, boo!" High security inflated rafts???? Go figure! =))

I would like to share with you this Christmas song by the talented Ukrainian bard and kobzar Vasyl Zhdankin (1958–2019), which he recorded based on a poem by the brilliant poet Bohdan-Ihor Antonych (1909–1937).
The fragment featuring the song is part of the documentary film “My Kobza” (1989), dedicated to the revival of the kobzar tradition in Ukraine — a tradition that suffered total destruction under Soviet rule. Kobzars were itinerant musicians (usually blind, accompanied by a young guide) who for centuries traveled between Ukrainian villages, introducing people to various forms of folklore, including 'dumy' - songs about historical events, Cossack songs, and more.
Vasyl Zhdankin was one of the enthusiasts of this cultural revival, although his kobza was somewhat modernized and tuned similarly to a modern six-string guitar. Zhdankin was the first person to publicly perform the song “Ukraine Has Not Yet Perished” (our current official national anthem), doing so at the Chervona Ruta festival in Chernivtsi in the summer of 1989. It was still the USSR at the time, and this act was quite courageous.
He was also a deeply religious man, which is why spiritual songs make up a significant part of his artistic legacy. Sadly, the renowned bard died in a car accident in 2019.
The brilliant poet Bohdan-Ihor Antonych lived a short life — he was weakened by tuberculosis, which at that time could not yet be treated effectively. Nevertheless, the final years of his life were marked by an extraordinary creative output, mainly lyrical in nature. He came from Lemkivshchyna, an ethnic Ukrainian mountainous region that today is divided between Poland and Slovakia.
The song is symbolic, since we all know that Jesus was born in Bethlehem. I believe Antonych wanted to bring this event closer to local people — to his fellow countrymen and to their traditions.
I would also like to note that in Ukraine, until 2023, Christmas was officially celebrated on January 7. Immediately after the Baptism of Rus’ in 988, the feast was celebrated on December 25 according to the Julian calendar. In 1582, Europe switched to a new calendar — the Gregorian one — but the Orthodox Church of Rus’ (Ukrainian) remained on the Julian calendar.
Muscovy also stayed on the Julian calendar — not only the Church, but the entire state system of timekeeping — as did the Russian Empire later on. In 1918, the Bolsheviks finally adopted the Gregorian calendar, but the Church did not recognize this change and continued to celebrate Christmas according to the Julian calendar (that is, December 25 in the Julian calendar falls on January 7 in the Gregorian calendar).
And now, in 2023, due to the war and for reasons that are more political than religious, the Ukrainian parliament decided that Christmas would be officially celebrated together with Europe. However, ordinary people celebrate it in different ways: some according to the new calendar, some according to the old one, some celebrate both, and some do not celebrate at all.
Since Flickr provides only three minutes for free, the end of the song was slightly cut. At the end, Zhdankin proclaims: “Christ is born — let us glorify Him!” In Ukraine, Orthodox Christians greet each other in this way, and on the eve of Christmas they say when meeting: “Christ is being born!”

...This looks like about as good of a place as any to begin a creek excursion down through Deep Gap, wouldn't you agree? This is Forestry Rd 274 at the intersection of Canada Creek Rd in Suches, Georgia.
