RAF Voyager ZZ334 c/s RRR9101, dragging RAF Typhoon FGR4 ZK311,ZK350 and ZK371 c/s RFR9511 FLIGHT over Mid Suffolk 13.03.2022
A Double-crested Cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus) drags his tail as he lands at White ock Lake near Dallas, Texas. Unlike ducks, cormorants’ feathers are not very waterproof. While having water resistant feathers protects a bird’s body from getting soaked, this oily coating isn’t good for diving. Cormorants’ feathers instead get waterlogged, allowing the bird to sink and dive more efficiently. Their solid bodies and dense bones also contribute to their excellent diving skills. While pros at swimming, the cormorants’ waterlogged feathers often make it look as if they are struggling in water. They often have just their faces and necks above the water’s surface and, after a dip, perch in trees or sit on rocks with their wings open to dry their feathers in the sun. Double-crested cormorants can dive to depths of 25 feet. Some cormorant species can reportedly dive to an astounding depth of 150 feet, which makes them some of the deepest diving birds around.

This photo was taken at the 2018 BC Annual Dance Festival in Prince Rupert. Mostly I was shooting to capture movement but I took the occasional long exposure for a more abstract look.
Plenty more photos (and I do mean plenty) at the proofing gallery online here.

Created for the Toy Sunday theme, DRAG, inspired by the infamous “Bad Panda” photo.
Good things to think about when life feels "like a drag" :
1. “When you come to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on. “ ~ Roosevelt
2. “There are those who look at things the way they are, and ask why… I dream of things that never were, and ask why not?” ~ Robert Kennedy
3. “If you hear a voice within you say “you cannot paint,” then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.” Van Gogh
4. “I’d rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star, I’d rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might have-been has never been, but a has was once an are.” Milton Berle
5. “It’s not whether you get knocked down. It’s whether you get up again.” Vince Lombardi
6. “Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.” Helen Keller
7. “I may be compelled to face danger, but never fear it, and while our soldiers can stand and fight, I can stand and feed and nurse them.” Clara Barton
8. “When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you, till it seems as though you could not hang on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and time that the tide will turn. “ Harriet B Stowe
9. “If you have made mistakes, there is always another chance for you. You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call ‘failure’ is not the falling down, but the staying down.” Mary Pickford
10. “You must do the thing you think you cannot do.” ~ Eleanor Roosevelt
11. “The robbed that smiles, steals something from the thief.” Shakespeare
12. “When it is dark enough, you can see the stars.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
13. “Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs him down, but a good word makes him glad.” Solomon; Proverbs 12:25
14. “… fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” God; Isaiah 41:10
Have a great weekend my very talented and respected friends! Love your work!

37884 drags 317884 past Brock on Fri 15th May 2020.
The 11.38 Kilmarnock Bonnyton Depot - Ilford E.M.U.D. move.
This is the first time I've taken a photograph here since the palisade fencing went up last year. It's not as good now, but at least a shot is still on.
One of the highlights of The Victory Show 2019, held at Cosby, was the static line parachute drop from C-47A "Drag ‘em Oot". The aircraft is a genuine D-Day veteran and also took part in operation Market Garden in September 1944.
CN 3023, one of Canadian National Railway's new fleet of Heritage Units was seen leading northbound CN Train U701, a northbound empty coke train through Brookhaven, Mississippi on Tuesday, November 24, 2020 at 10:09 AM CST.
This Heritage Unit was painted in the bright orange Elgin, Joliet, and Eastern paint scheme and it made a big buzz on the Trains of Mississippi railfan page and I am thankful that I had gotten a second chance to try to catch it this time in daylight.
The other day I was not so lucky because it got dark by the time it passed through Brookhaven.

A rare sight these days, as Direct Rail Services Class 57/3, 57304 “Pride of Cheshire” performs its intended Thunderbird duties and drags failed Avanti West Coast "Pendolino" Class 390, 390117 through Hartford as 5Z62 16:18 Preston to Oxley Carriage Maintenance Depot.
The Pendolino had sat in Preston for just over 12 hours having failed earlier that morning. The 'Bodysnatcher' was eventually summoned to move the stricken EMU to Oxley depot for attention.
