Snow on the central fells. It's been a superb early spring for photography, whatever the non photography public may say. Snow on the hills, clear light, dry and bright. Not looking forward to all that grey and rain like we usually have.
Spring 2026.
The Daffodil symbolizes renewal, hope, and new beginnings, often representing the arrival of Spring and the promise of positive change.

Even if reluctantly, we still must anticipate the coming of Autumn and the reality that Winter is just around the corner.
I know that I've lamented the cold and short duration of this last Summer, so I won't beat that point into the ground and will instead anticipate the golds and red's of Autumn and will hope that this year's leaves will be brilliant.
I just read an article this morning about the ten best places for Fall Color's and the Columbia River Gorge, rightfully so, was included in the list. The link can be found HERE. The article also features a great photo by my awesome Flickr friend Sarah. : )
And so in that spirit, I post a shot from last Autumn taken along Still Creek near my home here near Mount Hood.
Enjoy your Sunday my friends. : )

Our cat Figaro casting a shadow onto the back of our front door at sunset. This alignment of light only happens for a little while in the spring and fall when the leaves on the trees are absent and the sun lines up just right.

I miss fall already. I'm glad I made the effort this year to get out as much as I could around New England.
New England Central Railroad train 611 (Brattleboro to Palmer turn that forwards the connecting 323/324 road freight traffic) has four six motor units leading a big train as they round the curve approaching the Norbell Street crossing at the Palmer treatment plant at about MP 68.2 on NECR's Palmer Sub, the former Central Vermont Railway mainline.

Rebuilt SD40M-2 3476 on the point still has her classic SD45 lines dating from her Mar. 1969 construction for the Cotton Belt as SSW 9058. The old CV never rostered anything like this and the woods of central Mass sure is a long way from this old girl's days of whipping thru Texarkana on the head of the Memphis Blue Streak...but at least she's still earning her keep.

When I visited Boston, Honk Fest was on, the festival of activist street bands. I had the opportunity to listen to (and photograph) the Forward! Marching Band, "a community-based, democratic, music-making collective" from Wisconsin - great fun!

The Goethe Monument in Leipzig is a bronze statue standing on a high pedestal in the Naschmarkt square in front of the Old Stock Exchange. It depicts Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749–1832) as a young man, referencing his nearly three years of study in Leipzig. It was created by Carl Seffner (1861–1932).

This will be the last WIP pic of the model. Since I got back from my (absolutely awesome) vacation in Curacao I redesigned a large part of the cockpit area. It took some time because space is off the essence but not abundant. Still, I'm satisfied with the new cockpit design. The cockpit 'roof' is built in such a way that it can be removed to have a sneak peak inside. The interior is detailed for as much as there was room to work with. It houses 2 ejection seats and a full instrument lay out.
Next to that, the aft fuselage is completed. It was a pretty straight forward build as I already thought it would be. The difficult part, next to the cockpit, was the undercarriage in the nose. The gear itself wasn't the problem. However, getting the bay doors to function properly and making it fit so that it looks as sleek as possible when retracted was quite the challenge.
All in all, I came a long way since I got back. The construction of the model is nearing completion and I'm momentarily adding the finishing touches to the model by applying the decals.
I hope you all like the result of 3 years of collecting bricks and 4 months of building so far.
photo I took back in 2014 at Hollywood Forever cemetery. I missed last years event and I'm lookign forward to going this year.
Sometimes I experiment with low quality versions of ideas, for posting on Instagram or just for fun. Not a formal work, necessarily.

I need to finish this before continuing with Halo 5. Wow, do I have a backlog of titles to finish.
