Another cute find in my garden, although frustratingly I didn't get this looping looper moth caterpillar sharp! It has such a distinctive-looking, and cute, face. Any ideas on ID much appreciated... as always I've looked at loads of images online and drawn a blank!
Thanks to curiosity thrills for the possible ID of brimstone moth caterpillar.
The 180 degree loop of the Moselle river is one of the famous picture motives of Germany. This morning I got this picture at sunrise. I was surprised that I was the only photographer up there on this Sunday morning.

Between Lake City and Engineer Pass, the Alpine Loop follows Henson Creek upstream. This view shows Henson Creek and Engineer Mountain, 13,218 feet. The Alpine Loop climbs steeply to Engineer Pass, 12,800 feet, on the northeastern shoulder of Engineer Mountain.
Oddly enough, the San Juan Mountains have TWO big mountains named "Engineer Mountain". The other is 27 miles to the southwest, near Coal Bank Pass, north of Durango, Colorado.
この撮影ポイントは、ゆりかもめ線がレインボーブリッジと高さを調整するためのループの内側にある船着き場です。嬉々として撮影した後「関係者以外立ち入り禁止」の看板をみつけました。
This shooting point is the pier where the Yurikamome line is inside the Rainbow Bridge and the loop for adjusting the height. After shooting happily, I found a sign that says "Authorized personnel only".
I've seen some strange critters through the macro lens, but maybe none so weird as this...
Movement in the mistflower caught my eye, and I took a look with the 90 mm Tamron macro (at 1:1, with 25 mm tube). It appears to be a very tiny caterpillar, with two different kinds of protuberance - the brown ones and the lavender ones. One of the brown ones, on the left is really striking. Does anyone have any idea what this might be?
Edit: turns out this is a camouflaged looper caterpillar - they put these little flowers on their backs to blend in - fascinating! Google turns up lots of information and examples, and I feel like I should have known about these. They will be become Synchlora aerata, wavy-lined emerald moth.
You just never know what nature's going to show you when you head out with the macro...one of the things I love about it...

Santa Fe 5581 leads a well powered eastbound train through the world famous "Tehachapi Loop" at Walong, California.
From Wikipedia: "The Tehachapi Loop is a 3,779-foot-long (0.72 mi; 1.15 km) spiral, or helix, on the Union Pacific Railroad Mojave Subdivision through Tehachapi Pass, of the Tehachapi Mountains in Kern County, south-central California. The line connects Bakersfield and the San Joaquin Valley to Mojave in the Mojave Desert.
Rising at a steady two-percent grade, the track gains 77 feet (23 m) in elevation and makes a 1,210-foot-diameter (370 m) circle. Any train that is more than 3,800 feet (1,200 m) long — about 56 boxcars — passes over itself going around the loop. At the bottom of the loop, the track passes through Tunnel 9, the ninth tunnel built as the railroad was extended from Bakersfield."

Photography show opening tonight at the Flower of Life Art Gallery in Lockport from 6-9. I have three pieces in the show. Here is the first one:
Chicagoan Loop
Photography – Glossy

Chicagoan Loop is a portrait of the people out and about in the downtown Loop district in Chicago. The title also hints that the people themselves are on somewhat of a loop: any day you venture out among them, you will always see people of every race, orientation, gender and religion. You will see people in costume, being peaceful protestors, celebrating at a rally, out for errands or to meet for lunch. We are all different and all individuals and in that way – we are all celebrated as being human beings. This collage portrait of the people of Chicago is comprised of 1,014 individual portraits.

ZBRLC winds its way around Tehachapi Loop as it climbs toward the summit on a beautiful but somewhat hazy February morning.
Spent several nights in this area in late December. Interesting place with fort Davis nearby and a scenic loop that includes the McDonald Observatory. I love the scenery we come across, but I think I love the actual road most of all, especially when it lays out like a ribbon across the landscape leading you to parts heretofore unseen...

A Union Pacific coal train descends the 2.29% grade at Crater Loops running 2x2x2. This train loaded at Energy Mine on the Craig Branch and is bound for Southern Company's Plant Daniel in Mississippi.
The D&SL really knew how to build a railroad through the rugged terrain utilizing a series of horseshoe curves, several tunnels and countless tight curves & cuts as the tracks steadily gain elevation. It's a steep climb from Bond as trains navigate Crater Loops, Rock Creek Canyon and Egeria Canyon until they reach the summit at Toponas. The west end of 'Volcano' can be seen on the mountains above the train before the tracks enter Egeria Canyon. Such a cool piece of railroad.
Crater Loops has been a bucket list goal for me for a long time and as most you can relate, merely a pipe dream when you live 1500+ miles away.
Thanks John Shine for the nice prop to photograph!

Santa Fe 5849 East and train are wrapped around the Tehachapi Loop through Tunnel No. 9 at Walong, California.
Shortly before the sun dropped behind the hills 6909"Westen Consort" gets away from Damens Loop with the 19.10 Keighley - Oxenhope on Saturday 22 June 2024. The 69 failed at it's destination and 50021 had to be the Thunderbird to the rescue.
A four unit lash of cowls including the DMVW 5439, 5501, 5500, and 5408 climb through the Merida loops with an 18 car wayfreight for Bismarck.
This train is paltry when compared to the monster 80 car train received from the CP in Max (see the earlier post). But this is pretty typical of the Missouri Valley Subdivision operations. Much of the traffic received in Max is terminated at the energy park near Coal Creek Junction.
With all things considered, we were lucky with this train at the loops. Included with the 7 loaded fly-ash cars, 1 load of dry wall, and 3 mty scrap cars were 7 re-routed mty hoppers bringing up the rear. Not only did this provide just enough train to wrap around itself, but these would also end up going to Napoleon along with the rear two motors. Two days later we would find this train making its way towards Hankinson for delivery to the CP.
"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."
