for Tuesday,

as Monday was another holiday over here :-))

 

Grape hyacinths / Traubenhyazinthen (Muscari)

in our garden - Frankfurt-Nordend

Spring is a little bit late this year. Same time last year I sat in beautiful sunshine outside in a t-shirt. Not a good idea to do the same now...Zaandse Schans, The Netherlands

It's strange how instant gratification evolves over time: from popping bubble wrap... to pushing a button... and now, returning to "normal"...

But "normal" has changed, normal is now wearing a mask and practicing physical distancing.

Delaying gratification can slow the virus spread and help with returning faster to something more like the "old normal".

What is required from us and how we respond to that will shape the story we'll tell in the future.

I stood in the rain and watched the leaves fall of this awesome tree in the park for maybe longer than I should have, I was pretty soaked at the end lol Worth it to see such nice colors : )

Two of the Grand Forks horses, looking for something to snack on. It's been a grim late winter and spring here. Now we have flooding.

Feb. 15th

Replaced first image, I apologize to those that faved it!

Waiting for a delayed train at London KX. Patience, hope and frustration.

Inverness On Tomales Bay, California

On dewy mornings in late August and September, dragonflies are prisoners of the marsh and must wait for the sun to dry their wings before they can take off.

...due to decreased visibility.

I had got up early to shoot sunrise and got nothing because of the haze/smog. I came out half an hour later and got this.

 

We had spent the night at the fort which was amazing but hot water didn't seem to be a priority hence quite a stinky trip to Jaipur after breakfast.

NS 316 waits patiently behind a broken in half 310 in Euclid, Ohio at UD. This edition of 316 had a teardrop window SD75i CN doing the honors. After hearing that they were stopped just 200 feet from the crossing of London Road, I knew that I had to get in the car and shoot, regardless of the 20 degree freezing rain that was falling. Not only were they stuck behind 310 which had 3 CN units, they had to wait on 23K which also had a pair of CN’s. Seven CN units on NS?

I love the patterns that fallen leaves make. And the jumble of different kinds...

 

This was taken in my garden during one of the earlier frosts of what has been an unusually frosty winter for recent times.

 

This one was another adventure using Nik Color Efex for the stylising. I really like these filters for producing some really nice photo-realistic effects. Definitely the ones I would want on my desert island. (If you would like the preset I created for this, just ask.)

 

This one is not for a group or a project. I just liked it :)

 

Thanks for all your comments and faves. I'll try and respond as and when I am able! Have a lovely week...

 

Thank you for taking the time to look. I hope you enjoy the image.

Some timely for me delays kept CP 650 from departing overnight and instead gave it a sunny morning departure. Here we see it at CP 501 on the NS Chicago Line with Navy Veterans SD70ACu #7022 leading.

upload frenzy today, probably because I'm shunning work and trying to avoid marking papers...

Keflavik International Airport, Iceland

 

Do Skipper butterflies fly during a rain storm? They sit when it is raining making them better subjects. Maybe to protect their wings.

Girona Airport, Spain

180 minutes delay allowed the sun to move to the "better" side of the train. High noon at Kleinstaasdorf. 193 733 with the NJ40421.

Hmm. Post may be delayed longer than you think. Spotted on my way to a meeting, hence taken on my iPhone.

CP 132 finally getting back up to track speed after a random split near Whitby.

 

After a lengthy back and forth with engineer and conductor they figured an operating lever had just uncoupled cars. After putting their train back together they continued on into Oshawa where they had to take the siding around a broken rail on the main.

With a non-trivial delay at Stinson Blvd, the afternoon light ripened to evening light and some cirrus blew past. Once 198 started clearing onto the BN, Minnesota DS gave the go-ahead to 685 to start rolling again. They head through the curve between Polk Street and Central Avenue.

Foggy all day, but I went out for a walk anyway... nearly got run over!
