The color of a river,
A sway of life,
With the glow of a knife,
Blue is a wonderful hue,
Unlike gloomy glue,
It's the little body of a fly,
The color of the sky,
The color of the summer,
Showing a wonderful time,
The color of a peacock,
And our oceans too,
Blue is rain,
Sleet,
But never snow,
However,
Who might ever know?
Blue is the Earth,
It's life,
And wealth,
The stability of all life,

Driving through Death Valley on the California State Route 190 at dusk was an unforgettable experience. The long road in front of us continued to disappear in the mountains, which were gorgeously lit up by the setting sun in the west behind us.
7029 'Clun Castle' roars up the climb to Sapperton Tunnel passing Frampton Mansell on 6 April 2019. This was the first railtour I had ever seen this lovely engine on!
As the sun began to set, I looked upstream from the waves for a few minutes. No surprise that occupants are being warned of flooding. My favourite part is the Surfer [middle right] who was weighing up how to ride these unusual waves, out of view of the Coastguard, who were there in force! It's always a lovely surprise to feature in Explore - thank you all for your visits, kind comments and favourites, all are very much appreciated!
Summer is a great time for taking photos not only because of wonderful sunsets and sunrises, fresh grass and forests. I also like thunderstorms, the power of it. And of course the wonderful smell of ozone that promises heavy rain very soon.
The picture that I took occasionally while returning from a small picnic on a river bank.
Thank you for all the comments and faves, my friends.
I'm seeing pictures of Orange Tips but have only seen a couple, on the warmest North Yorkshire days. Won't be long though.
It's always a thrill to feature in Explore, thanks for looking and for your faves and kind comments. I'm very flattered!

The original northern lights film image taken in the late 1990's (www.flickr.com/photos/79387036@N07/30171286613) is considerably enhanced in this post-processed revision to bring out the colors by increasing contrast. The original image is from a negative (Etkapress with iso=640) that was scanned at 7200 dpi without modification.
Green aurora is common at high latitudes (Fairbanks, Alaska is 64N). So when other colors appeared, I often took a roll of exposures in a matter of minutes. In the age of film, the spectrum of color was not always captured or developed accurately. In this revision which occurred at the ending of twilight, I managed to record the top of the aurora lit by the last rays of the sun. That blue-purple is this resulting phenomena. Very occasionally, you can see yellow and pink in an Auroral display which are associated with only high solar activity as they are simply a mixture of red with green or blue.
