An empty BNSF ethanol train makes its way south on the Raton Sub near Timpas, CO aka the middle of nowhere!

A trio of Canadian National and Bessemer SD40-3 rebuilds from Southern Pacific EMD SD45T-2s roll a northbound limestone train along MN route 7.

 

With the limited vehicle traffic in the Iron Range on this route, there was NO chance of getting run over.

Tanjung Harapan is a notable tourist attraction in Selangor (Although nothing much there in actual). It is located near the Northport in Port Klang.

 

A litlle story behind this - I know where the place is but I seriously have no idea on how to get there (been there previously like 2 times and that was like 7-8 years ago!). Lucky for me, Daniel's cool mobile has a GPS. SO we're able to reach there in time for some spectacular sunset/blue hour!

 

This will be the last photo outing with him as he will be re-locating to Dubai. Definitely will miss going out with the master himself again!

 

Tech notes: This is a PSB taken a bit later from the previous one - hence the golden glow on the rocks are from the street lights. I made 3 tonemapped HDR and 1 DRI from it and blended it using smart objects (thanks to Daniel for shedding some light into it!) and also Rajesh's PSB technique. All in all 18 exposures were used to create this.

I choose this photo to accompany the music selected by J.Noella : ♪ ♫ Hate Me ~ Blue October ♫ ♪

Driving around the New Forest a couple of days ago, trying to spot some compositions in the frost, I came across a group of trees/bushes that had been subject to controlled burning recently. By isolating one of them within a composition of frozen open land, I felt it portrayed the cold, lifeless feeling of the landscape during this current cold spell.

After years of nature restoration the peataera Vragenderveen has become a tough place for trees leaving a desolated feeling

 

Door succesvol herstel avn het hoogveen beginnen de bomen het steeds moeilijker te krijgen. Afgelopen zomer zijn veel berken opgeruimd met een kale desolate aanblik. Ziet apart, maar is een goed teken.

Alas, the floor beneath the old piano has given way...

I suppose there is a silent beauty in desolation, but in all of my other photographs I have strived to show a lush beauty of the natural environment, elegance in human endeavor and a regeneration of hostile urban environments.

 

We need leaders who are interested in preserving the natural environment, and who are interested in cooperating with other nations to accomplish that goal. I am very concerned that our current leaders may not recognize the need to protect the environment.

 

(Rest assured that Lake Superior, and Presque Isle are still vibrant and lush...this picture was altered for effect to reflect what the world could look like if it is not cared for).
