The old corn cribs were designed so the equipment can pull through and unload, then the equipment stored over winter for protection. Over the years the corn cribs evolved to outpost garages and junk collections in the fileds.

Obiges Foto hatte mir mein Freund geschickt, ich hatte die Änderungen für die beiden anderen Bearbeitungen vorgeschlagen. Grund: Zu viele Pfeiler, zu viele scharfe Kanten. Und die Geometrie ist mir nicht "reingelaufen".

My friend sent me the above photo, I suggested the changes for the other two edits. Reason: Too many pillars, too many sharp edges. And the geometry didn't "come" me.

This vintage Catapiller sits on display at the Guy Goodwin Education Center in Carrizo Plain national Monument, San Luis Obispo County, California. Cattle were brought to the grasslands of the Carrizo Plain by the early 1850s. The next big change came when dryland grain farmers started homesteading in the valley. Eventually vast amounts of the grassland was put to the plow. The farm work was orignally all done with horse drawn euipment but eventually tractors like this one did the heavy work. The Carrizo Plain gets only 8 to 10 inches of rainfall a year on average but the amount during any given year can be highly unpredictable. The risk of crop failure due to insufficient moisture became to great and most of the farming efforts were abandoned. In the last few decades many of the homesteads were bought and became part of the National Monument which is administered by the BLM.

And now for something completely different. I was struck by the light and shadow on these implements in a mug on the kitchen counter.

Hope you are enjoying a beautiful week. Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for all of your kind comments -- I appreciate them all.

BAL-05, with the CP 6241 and 6303 in their sharp Golden Beaver scheme leading, weave through some curves along the appropriately named Great River Road north of Guttenberg, IA on the west edge of the Mississippi River Valley. An old MILW line pole for some reason hangs on here, one of the few anywhere along this line to my knowledge. The ballast extra with it’s two set of GREX conveyor cars has been trying to weave through traffic southbound on the Marquette sub all day. Some minor signal issues at the siding at Eckards had delayed the train ahead (K50) and now this BAL-05 was running on restricting signals behind the slower freight most of the way to Dubuque it seemed. But that made for a nice chase for me! This sharp SD60 duo didn't last super long before one of them was replaced with a GP20ECo, unfortunately.

The CTC for this stretch around Eckards to Dubuque is relatively new. The CP has slowly been implementing CTC on the Marquette Sub from Sabula, IA to Bluff (La Crescent, MN), and has finally made it to Marquette with just a few "islands" of track warrant control "dark" territory left south of there. Given the increase in traffic on this line that is a key link in the CPKC’s Canada to Mexico route it certainly does seem warranted. Ballast trains are a common sight on the Marquette as they shuttle rock to expansion and heavy maintenance projects all throughout eastern Iowa from the pit at Waterloo, WI.

Ich habe mir gestern einen Blumenstrauß gegönnt . In der Mitte glitzert ein mit Deco - Frost hübsch anzusehender echter Zier-Kohl ( Brassica oleracea ) . Er gibt dem Blumenstrauß eine leicht frostige Note , jedoch ohne weihnachtlicher Wirkung . Weihnachten ist eben vorbei und nun gehen wir schon in ein paar Tagen in den Jahreswechsel .

Lasst uns gemeinsam auf das Jahr 2022 freuen . Mit neuen fotografischen Umsetzungen , Ideen , Kreativität und schönen Bildern .

Ich denke , 2022 kann und darf kommen . 📷💕😊🎉 Grüßlis Christine

Yesterday I treated myself to a bouquet of flowers. In the middle, a real ornamental cabbage (Brassica oleracea), which is beautiful to look at with Deco Frost, glitters. It gives the bouquet a slightly frosty note, but without a Christmas effect. Christmas is over and now we will be entering the New Year in a few days.

Let's look forward to 2022 together. With new photographic implementations, ideas, creativity and beautiful pictures.

I think 2022 can and may be to come. 📷💕😊🎉 Greetings Christine

Although Friedensreich Hundertwasser first achieved notoriety for his boldly-coloured paintings, he is more widely known for his individual architectural designs. These designs use irregular forms, and incorporate natural features of the landscape. In architectural projects he implemented window right and tree tenants, uneven floors, woods on the roof, and spontaneous vegetation.

Camera: Beacon Two-Twenty-Five, a low-end 1950s plastic camera with a 70mm doublet lens. The focus is fixed and ranges from about 5 1/2 feet to infinity. The shutter, at around 1/50 second, is best for daylight shots, but even small movements (such as the horse's ear) can result in blur. Overall, the camera is quite fun to shoot and I was very pleased at the quality of image produced by the doublet lens. The camera is called the "Two-Twenty-Five" because it produces 2.25-inch square images.

A fascinating history of the company which produced the Beacon can be found at Mike Eckman's website: mikeeckman.com/2023/07/beacon-two-twenty-five-1950/

A seguito dell'implementazione del sistema di sicurezza ETCS lungo l'asse alpino del San Gottardo le Br185 che DB adoperava abitualmente su questo itinerario dovettero essere distolte dall'abituale servizio per permettere la progressiva installazione dei sistemi necessari. SBB Cargo e DB Schenker siglarono pertanto un accordo commerciale per lo "scambio" di una parte delle proprie dotazioni.

Mentre quindi una decina di Br185 vennero assegnate ai servizi "domestici" delle Ferrovie Federali elvetiche, prevalentemente assegnate al deposito di Zurich Limathal, SBB sostituì fino allo scorso cambio d'orario, le TRAXX tedesche con le proprie locomotive su tutti i convogli che dalla Germania si dirigevano in Ticino ed Italia.

Nella foto la Re4/4.11183 sta proprio trainando sul San Gottardo uno dei convogli forse più indelebilmente associati alle Br185 tedesche, il "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza. (30/10/15)

In the last months the DBS Br185.1s used along the Gotthard route had been withdrawed due to the ETCS implementation.

While some loks were working with SBB in domestic freight activities around Zurih Limathal, some Re10/10 were employed to haul also the DBS international trains from Basel to Chiasso.

Beyond the many mixed freight from Mannheim, also the "Winnerzug" Wuppertal-Piacenza had been entrusted to the Swiss loks.

Here the Re4/4.11183 and a Re6/6 are running just before the Biaschina Loops heading the southbound train. (30/10/15)

This is probably one of the most photographed lighthouses in Maine. In fact, Popular Photography magazine chose a photograph of this very lighthouse as one of their best travel photos of the year. (that shot was sooo much better than mine)

I posted a couple shots of the lighthouse shortly after my trip, but forgot about a series of shots I'd saved with an adjusted white balance. Since I'm in a major photo slump, I thought I'd share one of those photos today. I think the hotter color temperature emphasizes the glowing end-of-day light. It's also a post processing trick that takes all of ten seconds to implement which is nice for people (like me) who don't enjoy post-processing that much.

Orongo, Mo.

From the book, "Elkhart County One Room Schools" by Dean K. Garber, published in 1991:

"PLEASANT HILL - DEWEY School District #5, was originally known as Dewey School. It received this name because Charles B. Dewey had settled in the early 1850s and soon started a school on his property. He was the first teacher at this site. In the 1860s a wood frame was built on the southwest corner of present day 37 and 40. In 1888 a Tee shaped brick building was erected on this same site, facing to the north. The front entry was recessed in several feet from the front wall, so no porch was needed. This entry housed the cloak rooms and wood storage area. This school closed in 1914 and the pupils were hacked (transported by horse drawn carriages) to the Millersburg school. In 1902 the attendance was 41 students and this kept declining to just 16 students in 1913. This building still stands and has been used for farm storage for many years."

The building still has its original slate roof and an enlarged entry for farm implements on the east side.

After the demise of Sephiroth and the dismantling of the SOLDIER program, The newly freed experiments imbuded with the Sephiroth gene have gone rogue and have begun wreaking havok across Gaia. The Shinra Corporation implemented their own wetwork team of enhanced experimental soldiers to "clean up" their mess. One of these unamed experiments imbued with a an amalgamation of genes harvested from 3 of the best elite of the SOLDIER program, Genesis, Angeal, and Sephiroth. This weapon sweeps the length and breadth of the planet, eradicating any remnants of the failed program.

A Plaque at the bottom of the steps reads:

Looking south, one can see Spadina Road, laid out by the Baldwin family as a grand thoroughfare from Queen Street to Davenport Road. William Baldwin (1775-1844), physician, lawyer, politician and architect built the first "Spadina" in 1818 and the second in 1835 after the earlier home was destroyed by fire. After William's death the estate passed to his son Robert Baldwin (1804-1858) one time co-premier of the united Canadas. Both men were leading political figures whose drive for peaceful change brought about major constitutional and administrative reform in government including the implementation of "responsible government" initiated by William Baldwin.

The Baldwin Steps were opened officially in September, 1988.

how 'bout a few Implements ...

This is the underside of a huge freight wagon at the Kingsburg Historical Park. I am doing some research on it, but I believe it was used primarily for hauling lumber. Based on its huge size, I cannot imagine that anything less than a dozen horses could have been used to move it.

The Moline Plow Company was an American manufacturer of farm implements, headquartered in Moline, Illinois. While the primary company was based in Illinois, there was a "California Moline Plow Company" located on Main St. at Union St. in Stockton, California. It appears to have been a commercial building associated with the larger Moline Plow Company, with a postcard depicting it circa 1910.

The Moline Plow Company itself had a long history, starting in the 1870s. They produced a wide range of horse-drawn plows and other implements, and also ventured into tractors (the Moline Universal Tractor) and automobiles (the Stephens brand). In 1929, the Moline Implement Company (which Moline Plow became) merged with two other companies to form the Minneapolis-Moline Power Implement Company.

The P. Schuttler Company, more formally known as the Peter Schuttler Company, was a highly successful and renowned American manufacturer of horse-drawn vehicles, primarily wagons, based in Chicago, Illinois.
