An eastern Sierra Nevada aspen grove with first signs of autumn color.
One of the risks of starting my annual Eastern Sierra fall aspen color hunt a bit early is that I just might arrive too early for the color! That was mostly the case this year, when I made my first aspen-focused trip right at the beginning of October. The timing of the color transition can vary a bit from year to year, but I usually bet on the start of widespread color coming near the end of the first week of the month. Last year it came earlier — I photographed large groves of small trees at a location near the Sierra near the end of September, and I found good color close to the start of the month. That experience led me to start early this year.
There was some color when I arrived on October 2, but it was not widespread. Some of the higher elevation "scrub aspen" growing on rocky soil were changing to yellow, but most of the larger trees were still green. There were a few notable exceptions where groves had changed. More common were sights like this one — mostly green trees, leaning toward the lighter "lime green" color that comes before the transition, plus a few actual yellow leaves. This particular grove presented me with a special lighting situation. The trees were in the shaded bottom of a deep canyon, but across the canyon and beyond my camera position there was a large open slope that lay in direct sunlight. This rocky terrain reflected the warmer-colored light directly into the grove, giving a bit more light to the trees along its edge.

First South Yorkshire 37482 YN08NLZ waits time at Woodhouse railway station as it prepares to work a 52a service to Wisewood on 5 December 2015.
Dawn after the first celebration of new year in Russian to the Crimea. For what 23 years inhabitants of the Crimea so waited, at last happened We reunited. It was fatal year. 2015 will become labor year. It is necessary to restore everything that was destroyed and plundered by the Ukrainian power after disintegration of the Soviet Union.
Welcome to the Crimea! I recommend the excellent website about Balaklava and tourism in the Crimea: www.mybalaclava.com/

Whilst things have settled down in the last year or 2, for a long whilst First Glasgow werre drafting in many external loan vehicles. DR3 one of the many loaned from Dawsons Rentals, departing Glasgow with a journey on the X39 bound for Stirling.
First TN 33240, a Dennis Trident / Plaxton President, is seen at Newington Green on North London Line Rail Replacement Service. First time with double decks.
Took some test shots to confirm/rule out issues from my first go round with the Graphic. This is also the first time I've self developed film. Well, OK there was high school but I zombied my way through that. LOTS OF ISSUES. Major dust problems, big scratches on the negative, creased the negative due to using the 'taco method etc etc. Putting it out there for everyone to see! ha!
