I can't find any authoritative explanation for why they do this, but it's very cute.

After a mostly cloudy day and flat light, the sun decided to make a beautiful show right at the end. This is my current favorite sunset spot, and I loved the way the light illuminated the grass by the side of the pond.
56105 brings up the rear of the Grimsby and West Yorkshire railhead treatment train, this leg being 3S13 08.51 Wrenthorpe Sidings (Wakefield) - Grimsby Town, seen going very slowly at Hatfield and Stainforth, approaching a red signal. 66848 is leading at this point.
Colas took over the operation of the York-based RHTT circuits from DRS this year, usually using 66s on the circuits that didn't run on the Scarborough - Hull line (where 66s are not permitted, and 37s have to be used). I'd found out the previous day that 56105 was deputising for a 66s on this train for one day only (allegedly - although it ended up on it all week!), and with every weather forecast I saw predicting wall-to-wall sun all day and nothing booked yet for work, I decided to take the day off and make the two-hour plus journey.
I'd been told that 56105 would lead on the return from Grimsby (3S14), so I wasn't bothered about getting shots of 3S13 (with the 66 leading, which I assumed - correctly - would be very dirty). However, I set off early enough to make it here (subject to traffic - which was fine), although I nearly went to Knabbs Bridge at Melton Ross (just east of Barnetby) where I thought there was a better chance of autumn colours.
I arrived at about 9.30am (about quarter of an hour before 3S13 was booked, although it was actually running about quarter of an hour late), and found the sun was almost exactly at ninety degrees to the track. Knowing that a partly-lit front of a 56 looks better than that of a 66, I decided to focus only on a going-away shot as that meant I got the 56 (and also didn't have to worry about standing at the side of the road with no pavement, or cross it in a hurry if I wanted both views). Of course, in the half an hour I was here, the sun moved round a little.
On previous occasions, I've successfully chased this train to Knabbs Bridge, but mostly because it used to have a pathing stop at Scunthorpe. However, there is now a direct road out of Stainforth (and Hatfield) to the M18 / M180 junction, so the journey takes less time. I don't know whether it was the new road or the fact the train was held here for a few minutes, but I easily made it to Knabbs Bridge - where I found the trees were much less golden than those in this view!
The exposure data shows that this was not taken in full sun. The thin cloud was burning off, but it was still a little hazy high in the sky - and in mid-November that makes a significant difference to the exposure. I was lucky, however, as a few minutes before the train appeared the light dipped very noticeably as the sun went behind a vapour trail for a minute or two... but then came back out, and stronger than it had been. However, by the time the train came back, all the high cloud had gone - although there looked to be cloud further to the west.
I was surprised to be alone here, although met someone at Knabbs Bridge and was with four others at New Barnetby for the return - and I know there were people at other locations.

We stayed at Hartman Recreation, a free public land campsite outside of Gunnison. Aside from it being 18 degrees that night, we were also warned by coyotes to stay away, and had a time finding a place to camp at all. Totally worth it, though.
I also turned 30 on this day. What a memorable day it was.

I took this photo in late April this year. Skinny Dip Falls is located on a trail opposite of the Looking Glass Rock overlook. The trail isn't very long, less than one mile and is a bit rocky.

Late Christmas present and my smallest camera. I am surprised by the quality (215 KB) and especially by the exposure that ignored the bright backlight.

Some of y'all old timers will remember this dance move . . . "the dip" often performed anytime during a song.
I was doing a studio shoot earlier this year for a friend and her "beau". I had them dancing.
I secretly whispered to the guy that when I said "DIP" he was to "dip" her. I asked him not to anticipate it . . . just get into the dance and do it when I said it.
That gave me time to frame it . . . and this is one of the shots I got.
I took Evie to the nature reserve this morning, it was warm and actually sunny! The river was high, not surprising given all the rain recently. Here Evie had just dipped her paws in, she got much wetter!!! I gave her a bath when we got home, much needed, she now feels & smells wonderful :)
I will try to catch up, Flickr has been a pain in the bum recently, comments won't load, can't comment and stupid bad panda, I'm rapidly tiring of it.

This is just an old tunic-ish top but this shot reminded me a little bit of the old bathing dresses women wore in the early 1900's (minus the watch, bracelets, earrings and decolletage).
Its that time of year to enjoy the fresh juicy fruit along with some delicious dip!
Is there anyone out there that does not already make this delicious dip if so run to the store right now and get the ingredients.....
You will want to skip the fruit and just eat the dip with a spoon!
Very old family favorite...
2- 8 oz cream cheese softened
1 large ( 11-14 oz) marshmallow cream
2 tsp vanilla
1 Tbsp lemon juice
Mix and enjoy...
Store in refrigerator
Yes you can half the recipe.....But even double is not enough for my family!
More than 2 Millions Hindu devotees from across India as well as from neighbouring Nepal, Bhutan and Bangladesh gather at the confluence of the River ‘Ganges’ and the ‘Bay of Bengal’ to take a holy dip every year on the occasion of “Makar Sankranti” a Hindu festival. It is believed that if any one takes a dip during Sunrise on the morning of “Makar Sankranti”, he or she can be freed from all the sins done throughout life and the passage to heaven would be easier for him or her after death. So to release own souls from pain, sin & to earn virtue not only the common people but also large number of ‘Sadhu” (Hindu Monks) come here from all over India and worship the River & Sun.
