The other half of my tour group are in the jeep in front - curses! Snapped in Hluhluwe National Park, KwaZulu-Natal Province, South Africa.
66 015, a regular down this way, approaches Brandon Down Goods Loop after running round its train of empties returning to Peak Forest. Above the locomotive is the roof of the signal box, disused since colour lights were installed four or five years ago. Above and beyond are the gables of new houses, whose construction has deprived me of a useful lineside photographic vantage-point. The loaded train from Peak Forest arrives a bit too early for me and is unloaded in "Brandon Down Siding", a line in the former station goods yard. Adderson and Kenworthy's excellent Ely to Norwich, in the Middleton Press "Eastern Main Lines" series, features a 1911 photograph showing the yard bustling with tanks, vans and open wagons. It vouchsafes that freight facilities were withdrawn on 18th April 1966, "but some of the lines in the goods yard survived, and from the 1980s onwards were used for occasional freight traffic, including bricks, timber and limestone". Taken, I think, on Friday 1st September 2017. Matey-boy there, with his phone, must've been waiting for the 15:20 Cambridge train.
Mince pies - trying out the new Flickr App. After Instagram changed their Terms and Services this looks like an alternative to look into. Wish these mobile uploads were not posted on the main Flickr page though.
Back shot from March 2016 of the Spectrum Street Art Festival at the YMCA.
I had to take my car in for a WOF and service so instead of going home I took a walk around the city catching up on the rebuild. March 2, 2016 Christchurch New Zealand.

11.2011. Hello to all the fans of my curvy figure. It's good to know us girls over 30 and over 150lbs can still turn some heads. I appreciate your appreciation. Since I am an amateur photographer, I do not charge a fee for use of my photos and hold a creative commons license so that someone who wants one of my photos is not limited by a fee or licensing. That being said, this curvy girl loves her pets and has a dog in trouble and not a budget to give him the help he needs. I have set up a ChipIn page to collect donations for my Corgi Sampson's $2,000+ surgery to fix a perineal hernia. Please click on the link below to read our anifamily's story and make donations via paypal. Any donation is greatly appreciated, but if you favorite, save or display my photos on your computer or website, I would like to ask that you donate $1 per photo. Sampson and his Corgi buddies Shiloh & Rusty, as well as their human family thank you!

Not just getting to Rotterdam, but getting there when it comes to constructing a whole new train station! After three years of building, a few new platforms and part of the roof are finished. A great place to have some fun with a fisheye lens! But I can't wait to see it actually finished in 2013 :-)
On a walk part way around the Travis Wetland Nature Heritage Park April 7, 2014 Christchurch New Zealand.
Travis Wetland Nature Heritage Park is a lowland freshwater wetland, located in the midst of an urban environment. It offers a number of easy walkways and viewing areas, with opportunities to see many bird species and plant communities. The walking tracks are suitable for pushchairs and wheelchairs and there are a number of opportunities to take a rest on seats along the way.
There is an information kiosk and the nearby education centre provides a laboratory, educational facility and meeting space for groups. Travis Wetland is a site where education programmes are available for schools through the Learning Through Action programme to promote ecological values.
The Travis Wetland covers 116 hectares of recently retired land surrounded by urban subdivision, and was purchased by the Christchurch City Council in 1996 in response to public demand. Previously farmed and drained, the area is now being managed as a Nature Heritage Park.
Fifty-five species of birds, including 35 natives, have been recorded at the wetland. Travis is the most important freshwater wetland for birds in Christchurch, supporting about half the total Christchurch pukeko population. An indigenous skink, the native short-fined eel and possibly the Canterbury mudfish are present in the wetland. Travis also supports healthy populations of a diverse variety of insects. As the diversity of habitat develops, additional species are expected to occur.
Nearly 80 per cent of pre-European native wetland plant species are present in the wetland, including a number of species now rare on the Canterbury Plains. These include the only substantial stand of manuka, a species of spider orchid and a native sundew, which are regionally vulnerable.
Invasive weeds reduce the native plant diversity. Volunteers and contractors are eliminating species such as female grey willow, blackberry, gorse and grass from botanically sensitive areas.

I took my photos of Smalls Falls in Maine this past August with a different perspective from my first visit there in 2007. Last years photos were taken from a footbridge and this year, I wanted a different angle.
The water was cold (It was cold enough that day for me to wear a jacket) and the rocks were slippery but I didn't fall (my biggest worry - I would have dried - the camera wouldn't have). I did drop my remote shutter release into the water on the way in though. It worked again after I let it dry for two days :-).
BTW, I couldn't feel my feet for quite a while after finishing my photos. It made walking out of the falls interesting, lol.
I'll be posting my photos of the waterfall next. This one was taken by my husband who also uses a 40D

I've been so under the gun to get this bike done in time for Classic Rendezvous Weekend that I've totally dropped the ball with taking and posting pictures. I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel so I figured I'd catch up a little

A week away from the noise, living in TMM, always seems to do the trick. Disconnecting helps to put so much into perspective.
We rode the Rhätische Bahn on the Bernina Express from Chur to Samedan. I took this photo out the open window as the train crossed a stone trestle toward one of the many tunnels on this route.
In 2008, UNESCO named the Rhätische Bahn and a section of this route a World Heritage Site. You can read more about it here .
