The vast desolate expanse of what was once Scunthorpe West Yard, the long concrete footbridge revealing the tell-tale signs of smoke deflector plates once fitted over the top of each track. The 08:56 Milford West to Humber International Terminal coal empties passes, headed by DB Cargo 66160 and viewed across the sliding hooded 'pig pen' steel wagons of the refuged overnight Llanwern to Immingham steel on Saturday 11th March 2017..

Our daughter turned 49, while I turned 69 (ugh) in June ... she was born on my birthday and Father's day. Here she is at 8 or 9 yrs old while we were on a backpack in the Desolation Wilderness above Lake Tahoe. After the climb she and her dad jumped (briefly as it was freezing) into Lake Aloha to cool off before we moved on and higher to camp. BTW .. our packs and sleeping bags were handsewn from Frostline kits.
Here are the last two shots that i'll post from my summer backpacking trip. It's almost impossible to tell, but the whole sky was filled with clouds an hour before this shot was taken...I guess you win some and you lose some!
I was able to sneak away for a night with my dog Finn. We opted to head up to jasper area for some landscapes. I haven't been up this way for about 10 years. Since becoming a photographer, I thought it may be a good idea and see it again for the first time but this time through a lens. I found the area very scenic. However, admittedly I did fall prey to breaking one of my personal rules and I found myself photographing some of the more iconic sections in the same angle that every other photographer seems to. I am usually ok with shooting in the same area, but I always strive to make it different if I do. I will have to head back up again and explore and find my own gems I suppose.

Pine Flat Reservoir in the Sierra foothills is lower than I've ever seen it. Trees, and who knows how old they are, are all over parts of the lake that are usually far below the water line. In the setting sun, and in the case of number one, after sunset, it made for a rather surreal environment.

End of the day on Guichard lake last spring. It was too early in the season for water flowers and green colors, and too dark for a nice sunset. Anyway, here it is a B&W long exposure of that lake, most seen with red sky and clouds than in a dark mood like that.
We have just returned from a visit to the Etosha National Park, extremely hot, very dry and desolate. Large parts of Namibia are experiencing extreme draught after two bad rainy seasons and unfortunately Etosha has not been spared.

A bit like the New Flickr really....
I went for a walk today in the New Forest, not been for a while. It was supposed to be relaxing but instead I got very stressed about the destruction inflicted by the very people who are supposed to be caring for the area. For some reason best known to themselves they insist on burning heather, gorse and bracken. Not only that but they do it at the worst possible times when ground nesting birds are starting to nest. Of course they would deny this but today I could still smell the smoke and there were birds wandering around looking for their nests which had been destroyed. This is the second year in a row at least when they have done this burning way too late. They comply with rules but don't use their common sense, not checking whether or not the birds have arrived to nest. One cannot look in a book to find out when birds arrive, it is different every year depending on the weather. Then they have the cheek to put up notices asking people to be careful not to tread on the eggs, and said notices aren't up yet even though the birds are there right now, I saw them yesterday. A bit later I came across a local man looking in vain for frog spawn in a place where just 10 years ago there would have been thousands of tadpoles. In my opinion, the powers that be by mismanagement have caused this. The land is polluted, not sure what with but I've seen it when it rains flowing out of the soil. No one else could have done it. Despite only studying for just three or four years, many environmentalists think they know best, better than the people who have lived here for generations, how can they be so arrogant? All over the country they are cutting down trees to restore heathland at the very moment we need more trees. It's a fashion which will change with the wind but by then it will be too late to save things. Just my opinion for what it's worth. 87/365 in 2014
