Reflections of a flight
inside out
along a painted sunset
south, south
still flying south
I couldn't decide on the right title for this so have compiled them into the worlds worst poem ;-p

A Night of Winter
The lamp is burnin' low upon my table top
The snow is softly fallin'
The air is still within the silence of my room
I hear your voice softly callin'

Oenothera biennis (Onagraceae - Onagracées)
Sundrops or Evening Primrose is a spreading perennial plant that flowers in the summer
The blooms open in late afternoon to early evening, staying open until they wilt around noontime the next day. The stigma (center of the flower) is a unique X-shape, as shown in the picture.

The view from Zabriskie Point is no less stunning after dark. As last month’s super moon illuminates the foreground, Venus is seen setting over the alien horizon right in front of the faint, but visible, milky way.
Arwen: "The light of the Evenstar does not wax and wane. It is mine to give to whom I will, like my heart."
have a perfect day, dear friends! Take care!

Watch and listen to the Evening Star, giving a glimpse of days gone bye when steam locomotion was the norm:

Steam locomotive and tender, British Railways, 9F class 2-10-0 No 92220 "Evening Star", designed by R.A.Riddles, built at Swindon in 1960, withdrawn in 1965.
Evening Star is historically significant as the 999th British Rail (BR) Standard, and indeed the last steam locomotive to be built by BR.
Evening Star was the only 9F to be painted in BR’s express passenger service livery of lined green. The name Evening Star was chosen following a competition held by the BR Western Region Staff Magazine. There were three winners, who all suggested Evening Star – a fitting name given that one of the first locomotives to run on the Great Western Railway was named Morning Star.
Evening Star had an extremely short life span for a steam locomotive and was unexpectedly withdrawn from service in 1965. The locomotive was claimed for the National Collection in 1975.
All day long, sunshine struggled to overcome the clouds that lingered after yesterday's rain and last evening's storms. I, too, struggled to overcome the melancholy brought on by the lingering weather. By this evening, it seemed as if clear sky may win. I stood on the front porch and watched the last wispy, feathery clouds move eastward at breakneck speed, high in the sky.
I brewed the first coffee of the day just before sunset and poured a mug to take to the dam so I could watch the sunset.
These colors are the fastest home remedy available for melancholy.

Found this shot whilst looking through some old stuff.
BR '9F' 2-10-0 No 92214, masquerading as 92220 'Evening Star' pulls out of Swithland Sidings with a demonstration freight.
Taken when I was lucky enough to still have a line side pass!
A weekend of engineering works saw all normal traffic on the Tyne Valley route stopped. Having the route to itself on Sunday afternoon was 66779 'Evening Star' which was operating the 6G44 14:30 Hexham to Carlisle New Yard.
I wouldn't have normally ventured out for a single service in indifferent conditions but I hadn't photographed the celebrity '66' before so thought I would make the effort. Just before it's arrival the skies darkened and the heavens opened providing a much more atmospheric set of conditions than the overcast but dry weather of only a few minutes earlier.

Conjunction (close approach) of the crescent moon and Venus, seen from Sapporo in the evening of 31 January 2017. Venus's apparent magnitude (brightness) was -4.7, close to the possible maximum, which made it an unmissable object in the sky.
During the first days of March 2025, the waxing crescent moon will join Venus again in the western early evening sky. Watch out!

Excerpt from barnquilttrails.ca/barns/elgin-county/evening-star-2/:
Evening Star – This site was once the home of Sarah Haight, the Quaker Community’s first minister. Haight settled here in 1820. This home, built by her son in 1837, is still owned by the family. The barn behind contains elements of the original Meeting House which was located on the site of the present Quaker burial ground just east of here.
