Look closely - that random assortment of detritus on top of the grey headed coneflower is a camouflaged looper caterpillar who has decorated himself to escape detection! They glue bits of plant to their bodies with their own spit as they munch along, changing pieces when the colors of their surroundings change as they move from flower to flower. Utterly amazing!

Here's the Chicago lakefront and skyline in morning light as seen from my window seat as a recent flight approached O'Hare Airport.

I knit my batt up right away and made this really awesome Twisted scarf from "Knitting New Scarves" by Lynne Barr. The construction was really fun to knit on US 10.5 needles.

A shot 3 years in the taking, One I wanted to take on the Star Adventurer but never could Barnard's Loop. Polar alignment and Guiding where the two biggest problems. This is a Wide field of the Orion area with a Nikon 50mm G F1.8 lens but will try again once I can get my parents Nikon 50mm D F1.8 lens with a manual aperture ring. This was taken over 5 night and dumped a lot of shot as the lens is so wide field the city light made it into the shot, in the end it was start after 9 pm finish 2am. Orion was corrected with 5min and 2 min shots

Stairs along the Navajo Loop Trail in Bryce Canyon National Park. The sun finally broke through the overcast skies on my first day in Bryce, giving the slot section of the Navajo Loop an amazing glow.

The Cygnus Loop is a cloud of heated ionized gas, oxygen, sulfur, and hydrogen in the constellation Cygnus.

The Silver Falls Loop is a notable trail in Mt. Rainier National Park. Aside from the falls and river, it features a traverse of a wonderful forest.

Three consecutive stainless steel bicycle parking racks in the shape of a loop-the-loop found on Hurtle Square.

Loop Road mit den vielen schönen Alligatoren,

sie sind ruhig haben aber alles im Blick :-)

A view from near my house from last year. There's a 2 mile loop that makes for a nice walk after work. But doing it every day did get a bit dull. Though in the perma-grey now, I miss it!

I couldn't stay in the sunlight for too long, but at least there are some sunglasses here :-)

These moths were all over the flowers at Cape May Point State Park and the Meadows. Despite their numbers, they were pretty difficult to photograph since they rarely stopped moving for long and tended to hover for nectaring rather than land.

ist sehr beeindruckend :-)

One of Amtrak's now-gone HHP-8s, recently arrived from New York, takes its train around the turning loop near South Station in Boston.

Columbia River from Loop Trail

With 40 loads in town, the Port Harbor Job rolls around one the two different loops that the railroad uses to shuffle cars around the Port. This was part of a 70 unit grain train that was delivered to the PHRR to be unloaded here in Granite City and transferred to barge, which is right behind me. The crew ill pull clear of two crossings, tie the 2758 down and then head back to the shop area to grab the MP15 number 1296 to spot the other cut.

An eastbound train is visibly wrapped around Trinidad Loop, a 180 degree horseshoe used by the railroad to climb out of the Columbia River Gorge east of Wenatchee

At least when it's dry, the trail goes up Blue Creek. Not sure what good the cairn does you then.

 

If the creek is running, then I'm also not sure what good the cairn does you.

Arbat photo walk

Someone looped this wire back at a break in the fence. To the right of the fence post is an animal trail frequented by deer, feral cats and occasional runaway chickens.

UP 4686 leads a long southbound intermodal train around Tehachapi Loop. At the time Walong siding still existed at the loop. Today this view would include a second main track (Main 2) where the access road is located to the right of the train. This effectively eliminated Walong siding and replaced it with two main tracks through this area.

 

UP 4686 SD70M

There was nothing quite like the SP on Tehachapi. Plenty of scarlet and grey on this train as they look around themselves at Walong as they climb towards the summit at Tehachapi. Growing up in Southern California I visited here many times even after first moving to Colorado and then Alaska I always long for my next visit.

Just south of Park City, UT is the Alpine Loop, Miles of trees and especially Aspen groves. A must see when in the Park City area.

Hiding under flower petals.

Recently popped to the Mach Loop to photograph military aircraft that fly through. Took this while it was quiet.
