Another one from the hols in Co. Clare – bright morning light, billowing shower clouds and a lighthouse – what more do you want?? I used the Canon EFS 17-55 lens at f11, 20 mm and ISO 200 for 1/500th of second from the top of the compound wall.
Sulle guide per l'Irlanda spesso si legge che e' un paese dove terra, cielo e mare si incontrano.
Loop Head e' proprio cosi'.
E viene voglia di distendersi e diventare parte del paesaggio per un attimo...
The passing loop outside the former Pensnett Goods Yard, on the Wolverhampton & Kingswinford Railway - otherwise known as the Wombourne Branch. The line was built between 1912 and 1925, with construction being halted due to WW1. Open to passengers for just seven years from 1925-32, most of the route closed under the Beeching Axe in 1965 and ends a few hundred yards ahead of this point.
The line between Kingswinford Junction and Pensnett Industrial Estate remained open until 1994. The track along the line is in situ but heavily overgrown with mature trees, except for the yard at Pensnett has recently been cleared of track (Summer-Autumn 2015).
The section of line south from Pensnett is used as an unofficial path by locals.

The first report has finally come in over at Calphoto and in 1 week fall officially begins. I've seen some really beautiful black oak displays here in the Santa Cruz Mountains and cant wait till fall creeks big leaf maples change. The big show is of course over in the E'rn Sierras and so far I'm guessing we're going to get a little bit better display than last year but not like 2 years ago, that was insane. I found fall in California by accident in 2006 and I got really lucky because I went in late October and everything was a brilliant yellow with not that many dead leaves at all! Last year was ruined by some early season storms, this year there are a couple of disturbances with one relatively strong one that could impact the region within the next week..heres hoping it doesn't verify or at least not be windy/cold.
I definitely suggest going before November this year....here is a good resource if you are looking for hydrological data.
Lurid loop-the-loop roller coaster at Adventure Island, Southend seafront. Other side of the pier to the Turtle.
Think I have some shutter bounce, judging on the double blur in the bottom right hand corner.

Don't try this at home, kids.
This is me driving back from the zoo
at about 85 mph on the Loop.
I've been wanting to trek down
to photograph the animals for a
few weeks now, and somehow I
pick the one day where
150 youth groups are out in force
and there are kids of all ages
in varying coloured
matching t-shirted groups
running around screeching
at the animals and each other.
Despite the constant maneuvering
around the little people,
I managed to get some decent shots,
and befriended a goat at the petting zoo,
in spite of his creepy rectangular pupils.
Oh, and I took about a jillion photos of
the meerkat exhibit.
Also, let this be fair warning that animal
photos will ensue.

The Georgetown Loop Railroad is a narrow gauge heritage railway located in Clear Creek County, Colorado in the United States. The Georgetown Loop Railroad was one of Colorado’s first visitor attractions. Completed in 1884, this spectacular stretch of narrow gauge railroad was considered an engineering marvel for its time. The thriving mining towns of Georgetown and Silver Plume lie two miles apart in steep, narrow Clear Creek west of Denver. To connect them, engineers designed a corkscrew route that traveled nearly twice that distance, slowly gaining more than 600 feet in elevation. It included horseshoe curves, grades of up to 4 percent, and four bridges across Clear Creek, including the massive Devil’s Gate High Bridge. The Colorado & Southern Railway operated the line for passengers and freight until 1938. Originally part of the larger line of Colorado Central Railroad constructed in the 1870s and 1880s, it was later dismantled, but was restored in the 1980s to operate during summer months as a tourist railroad, carrying passengers using historic narrow-gauge steam locomotives.
In 1959, the centennial year of the discovery of gold in Georgetown, the Georgetown Loop Historic Mining & Railroad Park was formed by the Colorado Historical Society. The Colorado Historical Society’s chairman negotiated a donation of mining claims and mills, and nearly 100 acres of land. Rail line construction began in 1973 with track and ties donated by the Union Pacific Railroad.
The four-mile segment opened on March 10, 1884 and is a restored segment at the upper end of the historic Colorado Central main line up Clear Creek Canyon west of Golden. It climbs approximately 640 feet between the two towns. The longer main line up the canyon was constructed in the wake of the Colorado Gold Rush and was used extensively during the silver boom that followed in the 1880s to haul the lucrative silver ore traffic down from the mines at Silver Plume. The Loop portion of the line was the crowning segment of the line at the top of the gorge and features a 95-foot high trestle. The entire line, including the Loop, was dismantled in 1939, but interest in restoration of the Loop segment as a tourist attraction in the 1970s led to the construction of a new high bridge and the refurbishment of the segment, which reopened in 1984.
The train ride includes an optional walking tour of the Lebanon Silver Mine, located at the halfway point on the railroad. Visitor walk 500 feet into a mine tunnel bored in the 1870s while guides point out the rich veins of silver and the history of the mine.
Passengers board the train at depots located in either Silver Plume or Georgetown. (Wikipedia)
Spontaneous spinning batt

This one is *really* UNC blue.. bryan will hate it.. but it will be perfect for the gallery. Usually the yarns I spin with stephs batt's are for me.. so it'll be nice to have something extra special for the gallery..
To celebrate the launch of new music journal 'loops' Faber and Faber and Domino Records have produced this poster, designed by Wallzo, screen printed by K2 screen with pink and dark blue ink on Pristine white Colorplan by GFSmith.
I created this collage of a few Tasku favourites with a complex and multi layered action by panos fx. However it is easy to understand - it just takes a some time to open, resize and place all the photos.
The Maze loop was recommended by a Ranger and while it didn't disappoint, I do have beef with the fact the trails in Joshua Tree are, compared to other parks I have been to, poorly labeled. Combined with a somewhat featureless landscape and it's amazing more people don't just wander off never to be seen again.
Driving on the track F207 in Iceland, also known as "The Laki Loop". The most fantastic and surreal landscapes I have ever seen. The scenery changes completely every 20 minutes.

Dublin Bus Alexander RH/Leyland Olympian RH23 takes a quick breather at the 123 Terminus in Kilnamanagh Road,Walkinstown. She was the principle treelooper from D635 until late 2014/early 2015 when ex Phibsboro AV144 too over.
New in 1990, she was unique in having ad frames at each side of her number display, retained into tree looping duties.
