-No photoshop used since I only use iPhoto for all my photo's-
Only improvements in this picture are:
contrast and brightness adjusted
colors faded out (it was in color originally)
possibly changed the sharpness (can't remember)
cropped out the less interesting parts.
the memories are fading away....the texture in this picture is the same rock that is the frame in the previous pictue
When fresh, the FreightRail 'candy' livery looked great, but over the years the quality of the paint used had to be questioned. On repaints it did not weather well, and when applied new to the 81 class it faded to a rather sad shade of pink. All three units picture here were new in 1985

Just a simple roster shot of a brace of C40-8s tied down on the South Track and idling away in a snow squall sitting just west of the Groton-Harvard Road crossing at MP 35.5 on the Keolis/MBTA Fitchburg Route mainline.
These three units graphically illustrate the changing times in New England as all three are former Pan Am Railways units, part of a group of 30 ex CSXT C40-8s (24 standard cab and 6 wide cab)acquired by Pan Am in 2017 in a deal brokered by GE. With the sale of Pan Am to CSXT effective June 1, 2022 they all once again became the property of their former owner. Finally after a protracted delay Genesee and Wyoming's newly created Berkshire and Eastern Railroad began operating the former Pan Am Southern property as a neutral third party on behalf of 50/50 parents Norfolk Southern and CSXT.
Consequently 10 of the remaining C40 variants were transferred to the new startup including the three here. Most were quickly patched with mee BERX reporting marks and the Pan Am Railways or legacy CSXT logos were painted over. Interestingly while BERX 7518 lost her Pan Am lettering and logo on her hood she kept her Pan Am globe nose logo. Why? I have no idea but it sure does make for an interesting marker in time that will assuredly not last as the Pan Am image fades from the New England rail scene.

Grabbed my new Leica D-Lux 8 to take a few quick initial shots as the daylight was starting to fade. This is one of the first quick shots I took featuring the late afternoon, Winter sun low in the sky. Southwest Corridor Park, Back Bay /South End, Boston.
Summer is slowly fading into Fall down here in the Deep South....we think! :)
Gonna miss stoppin' by all the garden shops to see what new flowers we can
bring home to plant....but it sure will be nice to not worry about weeding and
watering for awhile too! So, as bittersweet as it is, fade on Summer.....

158 High St., Christchurch (CF Cotter building)
I originally photographed this old advertising in Sept.2012 (see the attached pic below).
Back then, I could clearly see that the signage promoted a cycle shop that was once there. Brice's Cycle Depot dated back to at least 1900, according to a newspaper ad from Papers Past:
[paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&d=CH...]
As it gradually fades, "Brice's Cycle Depot" gets harder to read...but there's at least one other piece of script beneath, referring to a furniture store.
Can you make it out?
"We swing between burning out, fading away and getting worn out with time."

Back to familiar themes of darkness and despair...Not : ) the missing spike in the ironwork was just what I needed to focus attention on the church doorway.
Cathedral Of Saint Sava - Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Cathedral of Saint Sava (Serbian: Храм светог Саве or Hram svetog Save) is an Orthodox church in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, one of the largest in the world. The church is dedicated to Saint Sava, founder of the Serbian Orthodox Church and an important figure in medieval Serbia. It is built on the Vračar plateau, on the location where his remains are thought to have been burned in 1595 by the Ottoman Empire's Sinan Pasha. From its location, it dominates Belgrade's cityscape, and is perhaps the most monumental building in the city. The building of the church structure is being financed exclusively by donations. The parish home is nearby, as will be the planned patriarchal building.

Just a song to leave here...
Back on earth, I'm broken
Lost and cold and fading fast
