3 EMD 70's pull up to West Cheyenne where they will wait for their turn into town. This golden light is a true as i saw it, I only cropped this photo and sharpened it. I have never seen such golden light in my life!

I do not know why, but taking this picture made me instantly hum this old song by CCR.
Well, you wake up in the mornin', you hear the work bell ring,
And they march you to the table to see the same old thing.
Ain't no food upon the table, and no pork up in the pan.
But you better not complain, boy, you get in trouble with the man.
CHORUS:
Let the Midnight Special shine 'er light on me,
Let the Midnight Special shine 'er light on me,
Let the Midnight Special shine 'er light on me,
Let the Midnight Special shine 'er everlovin' light on me.
Yonder come miss Rosie, how in the world did you know?
By the way she wears her apron, and the clothes she wore.
Umbrella on her shoulder, piece of paper in her hand;
She come to see the gov'nor, she wants to free her man.
CHORUS
If you're ever in Houston, well, you better do the right;
You better not gamble, there, you better not fight, at all
Or the sheriff will grab ya and the boys will bring you down.
The next thing you know, boy, Oh! You're prison bound.
An older photo of mine brought to life (with a little tweaking) taken along the old Reading Railroad freight line that runs through Lower Merion Township, just north of Philadelphia; taken in the historic Flat Rock Tunnel.
The light shines in the darkness,
and the darkness has not overcome it

A Light Show down the pier this evening. Kirkwall Lifeboat under a showing of the Aurora Borealis, pinks and a touch of green the order of the day.
An antique style light bulb with spiral filament as seen at King’s Road Brewery in Medford, NJ. Highly recommend this brewery for craft beer and next door is a great BBQ joint. Cheers!

Some bridge somewhere in Rome. What interested me more than the beautiful structure of the bridge was the dance of the early morning light on the tree. I wanted to use the leaves as a frame through which you glimpse the bridge and its reflection in the water.
This is a little corner in Liège-Guillemins railway station. The design by Santiago Calatrava is a play of light, shadows, glass and concrete.
Well, I wanted to see if I could capture some decent ones. Nothing too exciting...but I like the colors =)))

If you look hard you can -almost- see the massive grin on the face of Laurence, my son! Laurence is 15 and doing GCSE art (GCSEs are important exams that 16 year olds take in the UK) - and he has chosen to do photography as his module. Now you tell me, what better way to introduce a 15 year old kid to photography than to have a little fun doing some light painting like this! Boys and fire, what's not to love. Great fun as a project for the two of us :)
This is really pretty easy to do and produced this on the first attempt. Steel wool in a metal cage (I used a bird fat feeder) on a chain; the steel wool is lit with BBQ lighter fuel and you just swing it round your head. Dead easy.
Here are some things we learned:
1) Take BBQ lighter fluid just in case. Although a lighter or stroking a 9V battery is supposed to burn steel wool it didn't for me - the BBQ fuel saved the day.
2) Steel wool comes in compacted small balls which you want to uncompact and unravel as much as you can. More unravelled = more sparks = cooler.
3) Allow about 10 yards round the swing, it goes surprisingly far.
4) Get the swing right. It's nice to see a circle ie like on this.
5) One ball lasts about 30s.
6) Wear old clothes, you don't want to ruin anything nice with burn marks.
7) Nobrainer but don't do this near dry vegetation. We've had the most rain this Winter in the UK for 200 years so we don't have this problem at the moment.
8) Of course, use a tripod and a remote. 30s f/8 iso 200 worked for me, could even go f/11.
9) White balance - incandescent light
We have lots of ideas how to improve it and may upload another sometime!
Also, whilst I'm at it, a quick plug for my new extreme macro site at extreme-macro.co.uk/. Macro photography is what I normally do - 200 pages of stuff about moving to extreme macro (>1:1).
