The people keep the city clean...

Funny, as the rest of the town crumbles into a natural state of disrepair, the outhouse remains...
This isn't a staged reenactment. On many of the former USSR's less modernized lines, rail traffic is still governed by flags at stations and yard limits. In this scene, a switchman raises a yellow flag to indicate 'proceed', as 2-10-0 L-3958 enters the yard at Ostashkov.
To stimulate tourism in this economically depressed part of the country, in fall of 2018 Russian Railways made the decision to operate the regular local passenger train (6697/6698) from Bologoye to Ostashkov with steam power on Saturdays. While the idea behind it is to increase tourism, make no mistake - this a regular passenger train whose primary job is to serve as a form of local transportation. The vast majority of passengers aren't tourists, but little old babushkas just trying to get from village to village with their jars of mushrooms and pickled tomatoes. This is as authentic of an experience as you can get with a steam-hauled passenger train in the 21st century. The train takes three hours to traverse its 70-mile route and travels at speeds of 30-40 mph, making 13 stops in various villages along the way.

Sometimes things don't feel right or unbelivable. There were many sculptures like this on the beach. Its amazing but just looking at them was so relaxing while the sun set down.

Thanks to Daniel and Mark for the inspiration. I used some of Daniel's description of his last artwork as a prompt, and Mark has been building all of those amazing cities in Wombo.
Prompt: An ancient world of highly detailed intricate steampunk blimps lost in a temporal dimension.
Thanks for your visit, faves, and kind comments.
I may never ask random people for a portrait, but experimenting with flash has its own magic. This image is a reminder that creativity finds its way, even without a crowd.
Mi lealtad no tiene límites
siempre,¡ fiel a mis amos !
y si no hablo, es por que :
¡ me da mucha vergüenza !
Si mi fealdad asusta
mi corazón enamora
paciente hasta la muerte
presumiendo de guardián .
Sé, que mi amo me mima
y mi mayor placer , ver
contento a quién me cuida
por eso , ¡ se corresponder ! .

On a crystal clear afternoon, the 452 job crawls south along BNSFs West Chicago Branchline, with a former BN GP30 up front for power.
The very grand entrance to the peak cavern. in castleton Derbyshire. Mother nature at her finest. Beautiful vertical rock face full of textures and colours with trees rooted precariously on to crevices at one with the rock which some how manages to sustain them
I have been taking my panning shots at 1/60th, which seems to be ok most of the rime.
As Heritage railway, speed limit 25 mph, so not much movement in wheel, connecting rods et. So thought try 1/40th. If enlarge, I can see some movement so partly successful.
Trouble with the Watercress Line is view points are from the northside, so looking into light. This morning it could not have been worse ! Bright sun, so when photographing train and try to keep same spot as focus, in deep shadow. I usually try to keep the number as focal point, but this morning difficult to see if I was on the right spot.
I fitted polariser to reduce light by 1 1/2 stops as iso at lowest setting without.
Trains run just couple days per week, and now not for winter, so nearly the last chance to try.

A picture that I was planning to post for quite a while. I love this odd neck-to-neck competition of these snails.
... in der sächsischen Schweiz.
Viel Glück hatte ich an der Bastei. Hier wurde gerade ein Filmdreh durchgeführt. Es ist für die WAPO ELBE ein Teil gedreht worden. Die Serie läuft im MDR und diese Folge soll im Jahre 2024 ausgestrahlt werden.
Ein enormer Aufwand an Material und Zeit steckt dahinter. Schwere Filmkameras wurden an selbstgebauten Seilaufzüge in die Höhe transportiert. Kameramann und Assistenten hingen alle in der Wand. Spannend!
The "Caminito del Rey" is an awesome walkway constructed on the steep and deep cliffs of the "Desfiladero de los Gaitanes", a canyon in Andalusia, southern Spain. Originally built near the end of the 19th century and in serious state of decay, the path was off limits until a mayor restoration was undertaken only recently. Now, visitors can safely enjoy the breathtaking views and experience the excitement of just having a few planks, or this glass floor balcony (!) beneath their feet preventing a sheer drop of over 300ft... Well worth a visit, but not for those with more than casual vertigo.
A crumbling tholtan ruin and lone tree situated high up in magnificent Glen Dhoo exposed to the winter onslaught with a mix of snow and rain lashing down over the valley. The conditions when shooting this were absolutely appalling and it was one of those rare moments where I genuinely feared for my camera equipment. The air temperature must have been close to zero but most of the precipitation was falling as rain, very heavy rain at that! I was totally soaked down to the skin by the time I was finished and my camera geared for all intents and purposes, may as well have had a bath such was the soaking that was experienced.
I shoot with a mirrorless Nikon Z7 camera which is a 7-year-old body now but still going strong. Conditions like this goes to show the value of proper professional level weather sealing on camera gear, especially for avid landscape photographers.
This photo was an impromptu unplanned image that I captured before declaring defeat and hiking back out of the valley. It turned out to be my favourite image of the day because it perfectly captured the conditions and the desolate isolated atmosphere of this hidden valley. A bone chilling but wonderful photography experience!
