you can tell by the vacant seats that it was a painful game to watch........

thank you for viewing…..critique welcome!

Former coal hauler 56113 now serves a new king. 6E07 1450 Washwood Heath to Boston Docks conveys empty covered wagons for another load of imported steel. The train rumbles over the flood arches of the Trent viaduct at Sawley, near Sheet Stores Junction. What future for Ratcliffe power station in the background?

Thanks to kurt55007 for bringing this viewpoint to my attention.

High School Football Pre Season Scrimmage

Gridiron Victoria: Melbourne Uni Chargers American Football Australia

This remarkable sculpture, entitled 'Iron-Bowl' (the famous Alabama Vs. Auburn annual matchup) stands on the campus of the United States Sports Academy in nearby Daphne, Alabama...it is one of several sports sculptures on campus by Alabama artist Bruce Larsen who transforms discarded scrap into powerful, compelling works of art...he has received world-wide recognition for his work and is also a prominent special effects artist for major motion pictures...

Paying homage to 'the boys of Autumn' from 5 to 50 who bring extra excitement to Autumn on football fields from backyard flag football to high school pep rallies to frenzied college stadiums to the pros on our HD flat screens, America loves its chance to cheer for brilliant plays and stunning upsets and that timeless thrill of victory...all under a deep blue Fall sky! The traditional rivalries, the legendary coaches and Hall of Fame players, the cheerleaders and mascots all carry over to each new generation and have sparked a million game day fire-up-the-grill get togethers and tailgate parties...and sold about a trillion team logo T-shirts and such...and winning seasons are still talked about wistfully 40 years later...this is something of substance and magic; this is football season!

Every fan loves bragging rights and as a diehard Alabama Crimson Tide fan, I'm proud of their 3-0 season so far...ROLL TIDE!!! : )

I seldom ever repost a shot from my archives but this one from last year just had to return...it's football season! ; )

Nikon D70S_18-70mm 3.5-4.5 lens @46mm F16/640sec., ISO 200

Taken approx. 11am on a sunny morning, no shade. Draped black felt over fence for backdrop and clipped it to fence. Used 1 Calumet 750 light at about 1/2 power inside 36x48 softbox about 3 feet from subject camera right aiming down on him. Was attempting to get an SB26 to fire for separation but because of bright sun and time constraints, had to abandon. Although I love it without it since your eye goes directly to his face. Processed in Lightroom.

Gridiron Studios Upgraded

Ohio State University is taking submissions for the redesign of their stadium football field starting next season (2022). This is my proposal.

Had the itch to use my camera. Found a guinea pig. Shot said guinea pig. Had Jugo Juice afterwards. Not a bad Sunday afternoon!
