Tucked into the mountains of Iwate Prefecture near the under visited, stunning Sanriku Coast in eastern Japan is the Iwate Development Railway.
Established in 1939, the railway operated passenger and limestone transport from its mine in Iwate Ishibashi, to the cement plant at the port city of Ofunato for a total of 11km in length. The line suffered severe damage during the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. In fact, photos of debris covering the top of this bridge can be found online. The railway was brought back just 8 months after the quake and has been going strong since.
Two trains, pulled by DD56 Centercabs, shuttle 18 car limestone trains back and forth from the mine to the cement plant around 12-18 times a day. Here a midday empty train crosses over the Sakari River bridge bound for the mine for another load of rocks.

A new Pelargonium blossom emerges from its green cocoon to join the world of nature.
Only the second cluster I have had the pleasure of enjoying during their rather brief period of perfection.
To all who have kindly faved and commented on this image, thanks come from my heart.
Took some shots at the Ocean reef marina development again. The new reclaimed land for the Marina is starting to be built on. I always find the simplicity of the water, sky and sea wall elements make for striking photos. On this day the clouds were also making an appearance and added further interest. The colours are always amazing here and the water is mostly a silty yellow/green colour which is best seen when I use the polariser to get rid of the glare. In these shots you can see the effects of varying amounts of polarisation.
Sometimes I wonder how fast Saigon has developed. That feeling is when standing in a small 200-year-old communal house in the middle of the bustling urban area of the city.

more than 30 years ago a trip to the province meant stepping back in time . provincial life was a laid back rural community. people in those days will take a stroll in the park just before dusk and would normally be home before it gets too dark. so for the city dweller a quick break in the province is a welcome relief from the busy , chaotic city life. fast forward 30 years later, 2019, this is how most popular provinces look now, new malls, more establishments and other modern conveniences, a replica of a major city in a smaller scale.
