Automobiles stream up the highway towards the stars at Zion National Park.
Here's a shot of the Canyon Junction from the east, looking towards the Canyon Overlook and the highway towards the Tunnel.
After a several hundred foot climb straight up the canyon William McIntosh and I found our exact spot from the last trip. I made my way across "the ledge" first and observed the view, The ledge is a 3-4 inch rift/crack in the granite face about 5 feet long and to cross one must lean as close to the rock face as possible in order to keep your balance, once across it opens to "the perch" which is a ledge that has a 20-30 foot high vertical drop and an odd area 8x10 or so square that provides a 180 degree view out over the valley including the Watchman. I surveyed the area and about 10 sec later decided Bill could have this spot all to himself, It was no place for two people in the dwindling twilight, plus its easier to get across onto the ledge If you could have someone hand up your gear, as it requires both hands and nerves of steel. I spotted Bill with my hands up like a climber bouldering, as he traversed across the secret ledge to get into his shooting position on the perch, but I had other plans. I made a few shots and after an hour or so I bailed on Bill for another vantage point down in the valley below. He was going to have to backtrack across the ledge on his own, with his gear, in the dark, all alone, because your not going to see any other photogs' way up here, Haha. I did have some trepidation about leaving Bill here alone again, last time I left him here he took a tumble on the way down and we ended up tweezing several cactus needles out of his shin, I had decided it was a good night for testing out every lens in my bag that was fast enough to capture the Milky Way and did so varying capture techniques, sometimes you have to sacrifice a bit time to further the learning process and I'm glad that I did. Hope you like this one.
The tricky part of this shot was trying to get only cars traveling up the road so that all the lights are red, so I just waited and continue shooting until that happens. This images consists of two exposures, one for the sky at 20 secs 3200 and another 4 min. exposure for the foreground at 1600 ISO.
Thanks for taking the time to take a look at my photos, and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are greatly appreciated!!

Grundlegend umgestaltet wurde die Bahnhofsgegend in Haags Nachbarstadt Delft. Die Bahntrasse verschwand im Keller; an der Oberfläche entstand viel Raum für Grünanlagen und die Straßenbahntrasse an der alten Windmühle vorbei. Der auf der Linie 1 eingesetzte GTL8 Nr. 3145 der HTM (Haagsche Tramweg Maatschappij) hat bis zur Endstelle Tanthof noch eingie Stationen vor sich.
Ein Klassiker-Motiv bei der Straßenbahn Rostock ist das Steintor im historischen Zentrum der Hansestadt. T6-Bahnen sind hier jedoch nicht mehr zu sehen. Die Aufnahme des RSAG-TW 703 mit dem Beiwagen 757 ist daher historisch.
GT8N Nr. 226 trägt wohl die grellste und auffälligste Werbebeklebung Freiburgs - für ein Veranstaltungsblättchen. Kurz vor der Johanneskirche verlässt er das Zentrum und überquert als Linie 3 die Dreisam.
Nach wie vor aktiv - und zwar seit Monaten als Ersatz für verunfallte Leoliner - sind die letzten verbliebenen GT4 in Halberstadt. Wagen 167 präsentiert sich auf der Richard-Wagner-Straße als Linie 1 vor dem Amtsgericht der Kreisstadt.
The mountain ridge of the "Ritten" is accessed by a meter-gauge interurban tramway that connects the main villages of Oberbozen and Klobenstein. This section is the remaining part of the former Bozen - Klobenstein tramway with a long rack section. The set shown here is on the short section from Assumption of the Virgin Mary to Oberbozen, which is now only served a few times a day.

Braunschweigs 0051 (ex GT6 Nr. 7762) erhielt als einziger DÜWAG-GT ein niederfluriges Mittelteil Hennigsdorfer Bauart. Auf der M 5 eingesetzt, befährt er gerade die Schloßkurve. Heute ist das Fahrzeug längst ausgemustert.
Da Bild täuscht ein wenig, denn der Straßenbahnbetrieb in Zagreb wird eigentlich von den 140 vorhandenen Niederflurbahnen des Typs TMK 2200 (Crotram) dominiert. Denoch gelang am Hauptbahnhof dieses Zusammentreffen von unterschiedlichen Tatra-Fahrzeugen mit dem Đuro Đaković-Tw 224 und Bw 712, die ob ihres Alters zurecht das Hauptmotiv darstellen.
As I was growing up, I always went downtown from this "El" station. On this trip, however, I first went north to the end of the line at Kimball before going all the way downtown and around the Loop.
Am alten Pöstlingbergbahnhof in Linz-Urfahr benützt die Pöstlingbergbahn (Linzer Liniennummer 50) den Bahnübergang der ÖBB-Strecke zum Mühlkreis. Seit die Pöstlingbergbahn umgespurt und mit dem Straßenbahnnetz verbunden wurde, existiert diese Kreuzungsanlage.

An experiment with Light Trails.
I need to work on it a bit and find a more exciting location to do this.
I am lacking something like the Spagetti Junction in Birmingham UK to do this sort of thing on.
Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_Rail_(MTR):
The Light Rail, also known as the Light Rail Transit (LRT), officially the North-West Railway, is a light rail system in Hong Kong, serving the northwestern New Territories, within Tuen Mun District and Yuen Long District. The system operates over 1,435 mm (4 ft 8+1⁄2 in) standard gauge track, using 750 V DC overhead power supply. It was once one of four systems comprising the KCR network in Hong Kong, before the MTR–KCR merger in 2007. It has a daily ridership of about 483,000 people. The line is color Deep Orange on the map.
