with the sky filled with smoke, I'm venturing back to the good old days.
This whole place beckons me. I want to enter and explore the whole property. There's some history here. The flare on the lens is due to the reflections on the water.
I have been spending some late afternoon, early evening time in a pretty secluded spot on the Lake - bugs of many kinds all over me - trying to locate the Pied-billed Grebe, and watching for any other activity. If one sits still enough, long enough, something is bound to happen…
These very young Wood Ducks ambled onshore and were completely oblivious to me, at least initially. The female with them stayed on the water in a supervisory capacity. Eventually a few of them noticed me, and I slowly brought up my camera while going from sitting to lying down, all in an effort not to spook them. The little photo bomber in the bottom right seemed full of beans, and they stayed for a couple of minutes, before re-entering the water.
There are often three or four sets of Wood Duck young on the water at this time of the year. I especially enjoyed the brief interaction with these ones as I had to misfortune to see a similarly-young duck caught by a Snapping Turtle a couple of weeks ago. Initially I didn’t understand the screaming and thrashing, but with binoculars I ended up figuring it out. It took a while to get that out of my head - I know predation is all around in natural settings, but that was a really unpleasant experience. These guys - who I know may suffer the same fate - cheered me up for the few minutes they were there.
The Entrance to Valley of Fire. A composite of images turning day into night. This photo is not a realistic shot, but more a creation of how I envisioned the entrance at night. I used 2 shots one long exposure for the night sky and one for the foreground. Thanks for viewing.
Here's a link to my Night Photography video based on the song "Sleepwalk" by Santo & Johnny Farina. I do the cover song in the video. youtu.be/HyaUJZjNMgI

After 35 miles of traveling through flatlands between Deming and Hurley, the landscape begins to change around the Southwestern Railroad's work train as they enter a long disused section of track that used to lead to the Santa Rita mine and Fierro, NM. With no customers remaining on the line, SW has been running bi-weekly work train to collect ties and rail for a siding project near Deming, closer to their interchange with UP. In line with the terriory and trackage's history, two ATSF GP30 on SW's roster are still in ATSF Bluebonnet colors, providing power for today's work train on the old Santa Fe branch.
This Cambridge college was founded (and this part of the college built) in the 1880s. The style is Victorian Late Perpendicular Gothic Revival (though to my untrained eyes it looks an awful lot like Tudor revival), designed by the architect Sir Arthur Blomfield.

On another day, on the same trip, on the inside of the big curve at Racey East, Quebec, we get a set of three Canadian Pacific "bigs" and a "medium"(M), providing the symphony of MLW song for the local farmers. What a sight it is as the run nearly 180 degrees around me! Just like a gigantic arched stage in the fields!
A pair of tree doctors sees to the needs of a rare kind of sakura that's been in front of this family home for generations. Both doctors here are women.
The underbush of Elvaston's forest and it's sweet-green smelling shrubbery is a magical place where nature thrives, and the air smells cleaner.

In the air, on the ground
You do hear the sweet sound
Of my love, soft and tender
That takes you along the path to enter
The hidden woods, the secret lands
Where you surrender to my hands
Among the leaves, against the tree
We are one, wild and free
Cries they fill the Autumn skies
Beauty is seen by my eyes
Sweetness tasted on your lips
As my love, in the wild it slips
Down the path, where i enter
Paradise, so soft and tender
Where birds hear, the sweet sound
Of our love that is now found
On the ground and in the air
Among the leaves, wild and bare
After catching the IR power move on the east side of Sheridan, I tried to catch it crossing the Fox River Bridge on the west side of Sheridan. That is difficult at best from my location, and it unexpectedly failed. So I headed to Wedron to get it coming over the Indian Creek Bridge. Here it is, crossing the exceedingly overgrown bridge on the north side of Wedron, just before entering the yard at the sand plant.

An eastbound Union Pacific coal train approaches milepost 41 on the Moffat Tunnel Subdivision as it enters Rollins Canyon just east of Rollinsville, Colorado, on April 30, 1998. The mid-train DPUs are about to pass the head end power of another eastbound coal load tied down in Rollins siding, with the rear of that train stretched out in the distance, with Colorado highway 119 separating the two.
Follow the moonbeams
And enter my dreams.
Show me where to live
And set myself free.
Only in the night
Where the shadows fill the room.
That is where you will find me.
Underneath the moon.

A man is entering through the main gate of the Ark of Bukhara, Uzbekistan.
The ark is a fortress that was initially built in the 5th century. Almost 800 meters of walls, which are 16-20 metres high. Bombed by the Red Army in 1920, and now partially restored.
