Not one for everyone, but trying to find something a bit different at Cardiff Central this tele-view captures the 7.05pm Westerleigh Murco - Robertson Sidings empty petroleum tankers (6B47) disappearing away from the Welsh capital and heading west to Pembrokeshire for another refill.

 

DB Cargo 'Sheds' 66034 and 66176 are doing the honours and don't look like they are sparing the horses either as they catch a bit of sundown glint.

 

On the left is the once sizeable Cardiff Canton depot (86A), back in the 1970s home to numerous class 37s on coal-traffic duties from the Valleys, as well as visiting locomotives from other regions. Nowadays it's perhaps even busier, but this time mostly with Transport for Wales's DMUs engaged in the more intensive schedules now operating in these parts. It still sees a bit of locomotive activity however looking after the small fleet of TfW class 67 'Skip' units used on their longer distance passenger services. In this shot a couple of class 231s can be seen, and a class 197, which I believe to be 197019.

 

I was taken by the way the rampant purple-flowering weed growing in the permanent way was capturing the last of the sun's rays. Sadly I haven't been able to get a positive ID on it.

The Rhine River, seen from Rhöndorf, near Bonn, on a sunny summer day in July, early afternoon.

A paradise for nature lovers. Especially in the summer months you can find up to 400 different plants here.

Encyrtid Wasp (Cryptanusia comperei)

 

I spotted and photographed my first Encyrtid Wasp earlier this month (see first comment). This one is a different one in the same family. It was the antennae movement that caught my attention with this one.

Trapezia Crab Spider (Sidymella trapezia)

 

Much darker in colour and slightly larger than any Trapezoid Spider I have seen previously.

The other one always stays ~ Lyrics: J. Denver

This was a tricky photo to take. It is taken from the path alongside the Yarra, almost from under Princes Bridge. The path is narrow and busy, and the buildings are really tall. I had to use a 10mm lens in order to capture the full reflection. That created a challenge excluding the fence from the photograph. I had the tripod set at a crazy angle with the lens poking through the fence, all while pedestrian scurried past. I only had one attempt at this composition because my battery was completely flat after the photo.

A slightly different view from The Crossing at Lincoln Cathedral, England. This is the point directly beneath the central tower where the north and south transepts meet. At the bottom centre of the image is the ornately carved stone choir screen, with the 1898 Willis organ above it. This organ has approximately 4000 pipes in total, most of which are hidden from view. Just above the organ, the dark square with the diamond shape inside it is the central tower - this was directly above me when taking this spherical panorama. Continuing upwards in the image you can see the spectacular symmetical roof vaults of the nave, flanked either side by its huge stone columns and arches that form the "legs" of the image.

 

The two round windows that can be seen either side of the choir screen are the end walls of the north and south transepts. Although they appear in this image to be facing the same direction, they are in fact directly opposite each other. This effect is caused by the stereographic projection I've used to create this panorama, and the transforms I've applied to manipulate the view.

 

Lincoln Cathedral is the seat of the Anglican Bishop of Lincoln, England. Construction started in 1072 and continued in several phases throughout the High Middle Ages. It is the fourth largest cathedral in the UK (in floor area) at around 5,000 square metres (54,000 sq ft), after Liverpool, London St Paul's and York Minster. Like many of the medieval cathedrals of England it was built in the Early Gothic style.

Light absorption causes the bottom of this leaf to shine a different shade of green from its neighbors.

This is my 23rd photo I've posted from this same laneway. Each one very different from the others. If you're not familiar with Centre Pl, this photo is taken from 5m back inside the adjoining arcade, standing on the 5th step down on a staircase to the basement. I used the entire doorway to the lane like a giant window to this scene in Centre Place. The handrail is a bit annoying but still adds a bit to the character of the lane.

This is an image I captured in the Rocky Mountain NP in the Fall of 2019. I processed this using a technique called the Orton Effect. This effect can be applied to many different intensities.

 

Orton imagery also called an Orton slide sandwich or the Orton Effect is a photography technique that blends two completely different photos of the same scene, resulting in a distinctive mix of high and low detail areas within the same photo. It was originated by photographer Michael Orton in the mid 1980s.

Seen in the cafe area at Alowyn Gardens with the FFF.

I have no idea what this was used for in days past.

A windmill near Wilpena Pound, north of Hawker, South Australia. Shot with a 50mm lens to emphasize the core of the Milky Way. Some lighting by the Moon. Tamron lens, prcessed in Lightroom with daylight white balance.

Georgia Swamp. It was my pleasure to help 3 different clients get their lifer Swainson's Warbler with photographs this past week. I'm behind on catching up with Flickr so my apologies.

This warbler can not be sexed or aged based on plumage. Some birds have more yellow on their lighter parts as does this one. Some are relatively pale with little yellow. There also can be some variation in the richness of the brown cap. Some believe the brighter more yellow birds are more likely to be found in swamp habitat and the more pale ones are more likely to be found in the southern Appalachian habitat of rhododendron and nearby streams in ravines (at elevations about 3000 feet give or take). Birds of both colorings can be found in both of these unique habitats so it is not a hard fast rule.

Witness of times gone by

 

Once upon a time, Šilo lived to a different rhythm.

Before summer crowds filled the coastline, life here was built around the sea, fishing, work and the small harbour. Boats came and left, fishermen worked from the shore, sand was transported from nearby sites, and the ferry connection with Crikvenica brought movement and connection with the mainland.

The noise of those days was not the noise of tourism. It was the sound of everyday life – boat engines, conversations on the waterfront, arrivals and departures, the pulse of a small working fishing community.

Today Šilo is a peaceful tourist destination, and the old harbour bustle has been replaced by the summer rhythm of visitors.

But some witnesses remain.

This old iron mooring post, now overgrown with grass and almost forgotten, still stands where it has always been. It no longer holds ships, but it still holds memories of a time when the harbour had a different purpose.

A piece of iron, carrying an entire story.

 

Svjedok prošlih vremena

 

Nekada je Šilo živjelo drugačijim ritmom.

Prije nego što su ljetne gužve ispunile obalu, ovdje se živjelo od mora, ribarstva i rada. Iz luke su odlazile barke, dolazili ribari, prevozio se pijesak iz obližnjih nalazišta, a trajektna veza s Crikvenicom donosila je živost i povezanost s kopnom.

Tadašnji šušur nije bio turistički. Bio je to šušur svakodnevice – zvuk motora brodova, razgovori ljudi na rivi, dolasci i odlasci, život malog radničkog i ribarskog mjesta.

Danas je Šilo postalo mirno turističko mjesto, a nekadašnju buku luke zamijenila je ljetna vreva gostiju.

Ali neki svjedoci još ostaju.

Ova stara bitva, zarasla u travu i gotovo zaboravljena, još uvijek stoji na svom mjestu. Ne drži više brodove, ali čuva uspomenu na vrijeme kada je luka imala drugačiju ulogu.

Komad željeza, a cijela jedna priča.

The Background.

 

Day after day I am more and more attracted by the background in photography...

Take a look at my frontpage.

  

Venice

on my waterway from Tronchetto to San Marco

Italy

There are some images that stand out in black and white, while others are better suited to color. With this one, I went back and forth between the two as they had completely different moods and stories. I liked them both for that difference and thought it would be interesting to see what the response is on Flickr. (Please note previous post for the B&W version).

📢 This photo is very large, so ...one click in pic ... second click and wait 2 second for have an CLEAR immage (be patient) ... you can see the amazing details. 📢
