"The line_up is a paperwork series I developed since 2010. The“liners” are made out of paper (Din A3),
oil paint and graphite, the theme is the hermetical laws of polarity and movement. There is no ending and no beginning in any direction, just an endless movement. You have the possibility to arrange the papers like you want and that makes it an endless playground for my photo-work and the eyes of the viewers."

This is the famous loop of the river Saar near Mettlach, Germany.
It was a beautiful quiet morning and an amazing experience to see the sun rising and illuminating the fog flowing through the loop.

The Tehachapi Loop is a unique track spiral on the Union Pacific Railroad that runs over Tehachapi Pass in the Tehachapi Mountains in Kern County. The track connects the city of Bakersfield to the town of Mojave in the Mojave Desert, with a track length of approximately 45 kilometers with an elevation difference of about 1,000 meters. On the loop itself, the track crosses over itself, thereby reducing its gradient. The spiral is 23 meters high and the gradient of the track is a constant 20 per mile. The diameter of the spiral is approximately 350–370 meters. 18 tunnels and 10 bridges were built along the entire line. At the bottom of the spiral, the track passes through tunnel number nine, the numbering of which is from Bakersfield. The side track in the spiral is known as Walong, which was named after the trackmaster W. A. Long. In the middle of the loop, we can see a large white cross standing on top of a hill, which was built in memory of two Southern Pacific Railroad employees who died on May 12, 1989 in a train derailment. In the image shown, we can see the pair of locomotives AC44CW.6316+5525 at the head of a train combination of several hundred cars on September 26, 2025.

Kinetic Photograph made with one single long exposure shot, printed straight out of camera.
If you’d like to read more details about how the shot is made see below. And for more of my kinetic photographs here’s my set, "Drawing with Light"

Some of the light sources here are a lit candle and a small flashlight with a colored filter.

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.
I choose a light source and/or subject, set my camera for a long exposure (typically around 4 seconds), focus on my subject and push the shutter button. When the shutter opens I move the camera around with my hands...large, sweeping, dramatic movements. And then I will literally throw the camera several feet up into the air, most times imparting a spinning or whirling motion to it as I hurl it upward. I may throw the camera several times and also utilize hand-held motion several times in one photo. None of these are Photoshopped, layered, or a composite photo...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and this series you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.
this is my 1st batt from steph's seriously spontaneous spinning club. i added gold tussah silk waste, silk rods, sari silk threads in different reds, and maybe other stuff...can't recall. plied with a green yarn and gold thread held together.
This spun up like a dream, rather thin! In 3oz, I got 497 yards! There is still some left on the bobbin, so I may navajo ply the rest of it or spin a small bit in two-ply for swatching.
Not sure yet what project I should use it with, but 26wpi, it definitely should be lace.
The Skull Rock Nature Loop passes through a maze of spectacular rock formations and luxuriant washes. Rock in this area began as liquid molten deep below the earth's surface. Continuously heated by movements in the Earth's crust, this molten oozed upward and cooled while still below the surface. Subsequent surface layer erosion exposed the rock, a form of granite called Monzogranite.
This nature loop offers excellent views of the east valley of Pinto Basin and sport some diverse vegetation and wildlife provided by the many standing pools of water in the recesses of the rock formations.
Thanks for looking and as always, your views, comments, faves, and support are much appreciated!! Have a great week/weekend everyone :)

I don't recall when exactly I began to take an interest in the bridges of Yosemite Valley. Still, I have always felt that they would make excellent subjects to capture through photography, provided the lighting conditions were just right. Usually, when my family and I visit Yosemite, we focus on the more popular viewpoints, such as Valley View and Artist's Point. However, on our most recent trip, I had some free time during mid-day, which I spent photographing some of the gorgeous bridges within the park.
Fortunately, the low water levels of the Merced River meant that I had a lot of luck with it acting as a reflection pool in many locations. One spot where the reflections worked exceptionally well with the fall colors was the Pohono Bridge. My main challenge was timing my shots to avoid getting cars in the frame, as this is a busy part of the loop road. In terms of composition, my main goal was to minimize the amount of sky in the shots since the timing meant that the sky would be overexposed mainly due to the wide dynamic range of the scene.
I've bought 100 2x2 elbows 65473, 100 Technic axles 2L, and I have fun making weird shapes with them. Here's an example.
