With a combined service life of over eight decades, a pair of 1979-built EMD SD40-2s - still in their iconic factory-delivered "multimark" paint scheme - are seen hustling train 3BAL along CPKC‘s Aldersyde Subdivision near Kirkcaldy, Alberta.
Although once ubiquitous as mainline power, today, these fan-favorite locomotives have largely been relegated to work train and yard unit status. Occasionally, as evidenced on this particular day, work trains will have mixed freight tacked on to the head-end, giving the illusion of a typical road train of days gone by; harkening back to a time when the SD40-2s were king.

This historic building can be found at Exeter Quay side. Built in 1680 it handled the trade along the River Exe and is now a visitor centre. It apparently is the oldest brick building to survive in Exeter. The canons in the front are popular with the kids. There's some yummy ice cream just opposite this building from where I was taking the photo (Salted caramel and chocolate are the favourites!).
As forest was fading into night this leaf was still nicely lit, hiding on the messy forest floor. I don't mind some messy scenes, no gardeners there. :)

A shot of Dunstanburgh Castle, Northumberland, looking across Embleton Bay, early morning after sunrise. I needed to get the camera very low in order to get the reflection, which required inverting the Center column of the tripod and having the camera virtually touching the water.

Crouched down in the water in Pucks Glen I was nicely sheltered from Storm Dennis, and while there grabbed this shot below the swollen river tumbling over rocks. The shot isn't quite as sharp as I would like due to the water hammering against the legs of the tripod..
I took this photo when I worked as a marketing manager for a tyre manufacturer, and it was used in advertising campaigns across the world. It was often used as a full page advert in farming magazines. I used a Canon 5D with 12.8 megapixels - who says you need high resolution cameras!

I sat on the curb to get this photo of my favorite purple Volkswagen beetle. I wanted to shoot it for the We're Here group's visit to the Perfect Purple Saturdays group. I don't know who owns it or where exactly on the street it might be parked. Wasn't sure if i would find it this morning, but i did. I figured i had a two-fer, if i could get down low enough for the Our Daily Challenge "How low can you go?"
A collared pratincole standing in shallow water at dawn in El Taray, Castilla-La Mancha. The soft morning light turns the landscape into warm pastels, while the low viewpoint and open space give the bird a calm, balanced presence in the frame.
The fall colors are creeping up the backside of the
East Bank Club in River North Chicago. This is my main dog walking corridor since its out of the way and really only used by neighborhood locals.

As always, thank you for your views, faves and comments!
Port Quin is a small cove and hamlet close to Port Isaac at the Cornish coast. In medieval times, the harbour was used by boats to sail to Wales for trading. Nowadays, the village is mostly abandonded and the harbour is maintained by the National Trust. It was a breezy and crisp day on our visit but we enjoyed the quick stop.

the rain gives the city a new skin. a dark, glossy surface that mirrors the world. a man walks, his umbrella a black shield against the grey sky. but on the ground, his double walks with him, a shadow-self in the watery underworld. he is a fleeting figure, moving through two worlds at once. the real one, and the one made of water and light. both are equally true, and equally temporary.

"One of Blackpool's heritage trams will now continue to operate until the end of November, it has been announced.
Two trams - including one decorated in the style of a ship - are running along the town's seafront during the Lightpool Festival, which ends on 1 November and features an array of light installations." - www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cj41e019yqdo.amp
▪️ Am weddill y flwyddyn, fodd bynnag, mae sŵn a golwg yr hen dramiau a ddenai pobl i Blackpool wedi mynd o lan y môr. Mae diffyg yn awyrgych y promenâd yn yr haf.
▪️ For the rest of the year, however, the sound & sight of the old trams which attracted people to Blackpool has gone from the seaside. Something is lacking in the promenade's atmosphere in summer.
