Finally.
The foxy lady and I have become friends.
Pretty close friends, for being a fox and a human.

Knowing that this lashup was coming west on UP KG1LA 30...the crew was well in position at West Grand Island to nail our first shot of UP SD70AC 1983, UP SD70ACE 1996, and UP SD70M 2001 leading their 11,766 ft stack train. A mid DPU of UP SD70ACE 8314 and UP SD70M 5166 were help keeping this monster rolling easily at track speed through the small towns on the UP Kearney Sub. After getting the car and chasing this thing down we were able to get a "pace" shot looking at Alda.
..knowing you are guaranteed a warm welcome with good food and a well kept ale. This particular hostelry is in Brighton, one of our favourite places to go for a rare day out together.

One day,
you will feel that the Creator
is no longer a riddle,
that the Creator has never been hidden from you,
that the Creator
has never concealed His face from you,
that the Creator is not at all far from you,
that the Creator is no longer the One that you constantly long for in your thoughts but that you cannot reach with your feelings,
that He is really and truly standing guard to your left and right,
supplying your life, and controlling your destiny, controlling your destiny.
He is not on the remote horizon, nor has He secreted Himself high up in the clouds.
He is right by your side, presiding over your all,
He is everything that you have, and He is the only thing you have.
Such a God
allows you to love Him from the heart,
cling to Him, hold Him close, admire Him,
fear to lose Him,
and be unwilling to renounce Him any longer, disobey Him any longer,
or any longer to evade Him or put Him at a distance.
All you want is to care for Him, obey Him,
requite all that He gives you, and surrender to His dominion.
You no longer refuse to be guided,
supplied, watched over, and kept by Him,
no longer refuse what He dictates and ordains for you,
what He dictates and ordains for you.
All you want is to follow Him, walk alongside Him to His left or right, to follow Him, walk alongside Him to His left or right,
all you want is to accept Him as your one and only Lord,
all you want is to accept Him as your one and only Lord, your one and only God.
You no longer
You no longer
You no longer
You no longer
refuse to be guided, supplied, watched over, and kept by Him,
no longer refuse
no longer refuse
no longer refuse
no longer refuse
what He dictates and ordains for you, what He dictates and ordains for you.
All you want is to follow Him, walk alongside Him to His left or right, to follow Him, walk alongside Him to His left or right,
all you want is to accept Him as your one and only Lord,
all you want is to accept Him as your one and only Lord, your one and only God.
All you want is to follow Him, walk alongside Him to His left or right, to follow Him, walk alongside Him to His left or right,
all you want is to accept Him as your one and only Lord, as your one and only Lord, your one and only God,
your one and only God.

Knowing when to let go of a dream
Understanding that what I set as a goal
somewhere along the road, is not
relevant for me anymore.
And now I need to let go. To change
My goals and dreams. Like falling leaves
I will let them fall beside my route.
And now, its time to grow me
Some new leaves – new dreams,
For the old ones I have shed away…
For years I passed this enormous gray edifice not knowing what it was or why it was there and at one point it seemed to have been taken back into use and to live all over again. I hope to learn more about it now and what it was before and after?

Today I invite you to have a look around the biggest courtyard of the New York Chinese Scholar's Garden. It is dedicated to my dear flickr friend ecco9494 who spend her afternoon with us exploring Snug Harbor.
My main picture is a roof detail of the Knowing Fish Pavilion. I just love those elegant forms and the craftsmenship that went into creating this beauty. Hope you feel so too.
Some previously unmentioned information about the design as it plays a role in my additional captures in the comments:
The garden is designed with "ya", or elegance. The garden is traditionally entered through a narrow passage where meditation takes place, prior to entering the main garden. The design of the garden produces harmony through its views and concepts. The garden creates an infinite space within an enclosed area.
- The borrowed view extends space beyond the border of the garden.
- The hidden view creates suspense and excitement as one moves deeper into the garden.
- The opposite view is framed by a moon gate or floral window.
The following text contains the same info as provided with yesterdays post:
The New York Chinese Scholar's Garden (寄興園 or New York Chinese Garden). It is a part of the Staten Island Botanical Garden, located in the Snug Harbor Cultural Center (opened in June 1999). A team of 40 Chinese artists and artisans from Suzhou constructed the garden.
Some History:
Traditional Chinese gardens go back almost 2,000 years to the Han Dynasty though most Scholar's Gardens date back to the more recent Ming and Qing dynasties.
A Scholar's Garden would have been built by a scholar or an administrator retiring from the emperor's court. It would have been an enclosed private garden always associated with a house which, in turn without its garden, would not have been considered whole.
This garden, designed and built by Landscape Architecture Corporation of China (LAC), is enclosed by walls, a series of pavilions, and covered walkways. These are all organized in an irregular manner to create a series of courtyards of varying sizes.
The art of the Chinese garden is closely related to Chinese landscape painting - it is not a literal imitation of a natural landscape, but the capturing of its essence and spirit.
The parallel could be drawn to a Chinese hand scroll painting which as it unrolls, reveals a journey full of surprises and meditative pauses.
The enjoyment of the garden is both contemplative and sensual. It comes from making the most out of the experiences of everyday life, as such, architectural elements are always a part of a Scholar's Garden.
The painter's eye must be used to lay out the main architectural elements - the wall becomes the paper the rockery and plant are painted on. The structures playfully rise and fall, twist and turn and even "leave" the garden to take advantage of and even create a great variety of beautiful scenes.
To paraphrase the 15th century garden designer Ji Ching:
"The garden is created by the human hand, but should appear as if created by heaven."
Some of the elements found in the garden:
Wood - Nails or glue are not used in a Chinese garden. Wooden elements are joined together using traditional Chinese construction techniques.
Rocks - In Chinese literature, rocks are described as the "bones of the earth."
Water - The garden contains three ponds and one waterfall. Water is thought of as the arteries of the world.
Plantings - China has contributed the rose, lilac, daphne, species of rhododendron, and the peony to the rest of the world. Trees, shrubs, and flowers are selected for shape, seasonal character, and symbolic meaning.
Furniture - The furniture of the garden is called the "internal organs."
Walls - Walls are strategically placed in the garden for design purposes.
Walkways - The curvature of the walkways offer many views and angles.
Pavilions - There are two pavilion in the garden. One is for the scholar's study and the other provides visual access to various other scenes.
Xie - A Xie is a building one half hovering over a lake. The designs makes it seem that the building is floating in the water.
Bridge - Bridges are often curvy, providing visitors a better view of the surroundings.
Painting and Calligraphy - Paintings and calligraphy represent the garden owner's knowledge of literature and art.
And a little bit about Snug Harbor:
Sailors' Snug Harbor, also known as Sailors Snug Harbor or Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden or referenced informally as Snug Harbor, is a collection of architecturally significant 19th century buildings set in a park located along the Kill Van Kull on the north shore of Staten Island in New York City. It was once a home for aged sailors and is now a 83-acre (340,000 m2) city park. Some of the buildings and the grounds are used by arts organizations under the umbrella of the Snug Harbor Cultural Center and Botanical Garden. Sailors' Snug Harbor includes 26 Greek Revival, Beaux Arts, Italianate and Victorian style buildings. The site is considered Staten Island's "crown jewel" and "an incomparable remnant of New York's 19th-century seafaring past." It is a National Historic Landmark District.

That feeling when you realise your child is growing inside you, bonding with you, your body changing. The physical bond of a mother and her unborn child. The man simply gives the seed, the woman gives her soul.
Knowing I wold be in Italy for three days, I thought… I can't visit this wonderful country without sampling one of its lovelies. By “sampling”, of course I mean doing a photo shoot to produce an artistic, sensual souvenir that would hopefully delight viewers for many years to come. So I arranged to do a shoot with Arianna Espen Grimoldi. My lovely model is not new to glamor photography. She had been featured in Italian Playboy in September of 2011 and will be again on the cover of the December 2012 issue. I feel honored and privileged to have had this opportunity of shooting with Arianna.
I will be adding images from these sessions as I process them. Come back often to see how this set will evolve and grow.

Here are some of the videos I produced as a result of my sessions with Arianna.

Great photography requires dedication, time and effort.
But above all there are costs involved as well.
Equipment, props and model fees, not to mention time,
are all "out-of-pocket" expenses for the artist.
If you enjoy my photography, you might like to help to support my art.
I offer over 2 hours of great videos, including many
behind-the-scenes of some of my best photo sessions,
all artistically crafted for your enjoyment.

Thanks for your time and support.
The train conductor in this photo actually stopped the train and started blowing his whistle. He also started flailing his arms towards me. I thought maybe he thought I was going to jump on the tracks. I picked up my tripod and moved back towards the middle of the platform. Little did I know he only wanted to yell at me about shooting photos on CTA property. So I packed up my gear waited for him to pull away and started shooting again, I eventually was asked to leave.

Knowing that the old office buildings and warehouses would be demolished........

Knowing this train and its outward facing DPU I went back to lining up the shot I'd been waiting on much of the day. The grainer has almost completed it's turn off the south bank of the Snake River with its high crossing to tackle the rugged path along the Palouse River. The waters of the Palouse River are seen above the bridge, it empties into the Snake behind the bluffs at the right edge of the photo.
Once I had this shot in the bag I could tell the light had swung around more than I realized. The sun would be out of position by the time anything came south. September 3, 2023.
But it takes a long time to know which one to pick up and use,,, and if it's not doing what you want, you'll know the next one will.
It's like the Rebour 5 minutes and 30 years story all over again,,, but in my case, it's 45 years of experience, filing lugs and building frames.
After all of these years I still enjoy caressing a lug with the files and 80 grit paper, watching the lines flow as I work the metal.
Not knowing how much time I would have with the train here, my goal was to get as many shots as I could get from as many different vantage points as I could. I wanted a wider shot than I had gotten previously, in order to incorporate the old, out-of-service road bridge adjacent to the rail bridge. The only way to accomplish that was to walk out into the cornfield. Normally, by this date in August, the corn would have been way above my head, but due to the extremely wet spring in the Midwest in 2019, where most fields did not get planted until June, so I was able to get out into the field a little for something different. A few other photographers opted to follow suit.
This was taken a few days ago in Indonesia. I was lucky to get the chance to meet with Mikael Aldo for a short visit. During our conversation I was so impressed by how much he had planned and how much he knew he wanted to do and I came up with this concept to show his confidence in his path

I think the worst part of knowing that your friends and family are all dead is that there isnt anyone that you can cry to pour out your feelings...
Not knowing where I'm going is what inspires me to travel it

The light is even because there isn't any. But it's the hour (after sunset) when these gorgeous birds just seem to chill and enjoy a lovely warm autumn evening.
Knowing how much I love Cedar Waxwings and how infrequently I get to see them, my friend Stephanie alerted me when a small flock showed up in her yard recently! It was a thrilling but challenging shoot, as they dove deep into the thick, shady berry bushes for a meal!
Armed with the proper tools, I went back to my favorite HDR location last night hopefully to get a little inspiration. Knowing the right spots this time, I got lazy and stopped exploring and started exploiting my favorite spot with my dirty car.
It took me a while and 2 attempts to get the post processing of this to look the way I anticipated. Although this may still not be perfect, but it made to my personal favorite HDR shot I've made so far. It took me a while to get the color to look right fumbling with my D70 at night (even after the fact that I snapped 10 shots to try to get the color balance right, it still came out to be off), but then I think the effort is well worth it.

Knowing that some sort of disaster was going to happen with the earlier attempt, I gave myself a second chance by getting ahead of it while it was making the diversion to Quarry Bank Mill. So here is a bonus nearside view of V23 HOW passing through Moss Nook.

Knowing that I was going to ask my group to conduct a photographic vision quest later in the day, I undertook one of my own from my favourite old seat under the wisdom (olive) tree.

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.
