Na zdjęciu widzimy elektryczny zespół trakcyjny EN57AL-1556, należący do łódzkiego zakładu POLREGIO, wyjeżdżający ze stacji Piotrków Tryb. w scenerii doskonale oddającej klimat przysłowia "kwiecień plecień, bo przeplata – trochę zimy, trochę lata". Choć niebo miejscami się przejaśnia, a promienie słońca próbują przebić się przez chmury, to resztki śniegu przy torach i surowy, chłodny krajobraz przypominają, że zima jeszcze nie powiedziała ostatniego słowa.

The photo shows the EN57AL-1556 electric multiple unit, belonging to the Łódź POLREGIO plant, leaving Piotrków Tryb station in a setting that perfectly captures the atmosphere of the proverb "April is interwoven, because it intertwines - a bit of winter, a bit of summer". Although the sky is clearing up in places, and the sun's rays are trying to break through the clouds, the remnants of snow by the tracks and the harsh, cold landscape remind us that winter has not said its last word yet.
So this is a follow up to the Anakin Skywalker - What If I posted a while back. It's based in the same universe and operating under the same galaxy changing event.
Obi-Wan Kenobi - With the public execution of Supreme Chancellor Palpatine at the hands of the CIS commander General Grievous, the Jedi council made it their highest priority to capture the villainous commander and bring to justice before the Senate. To accomplish this, they assigned the Open Circle Armada commanded by Jedi Generals Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker to lead the spearhead into the heartland of Separatist space with one objective. Capture Grievous.
Having faced the droid general on multiple occasions and failing to best him in combat, Obi-Wan would often feel guilt for Palpatine's death, believing that had he not failed in the past the Clone War would have come to an end long ago. But with the help of his former apprentice, Obi-Wan was able to look beyond his past failures to the future. Both he and Anakin would bring Grievous to justice in the name of the former chancellor.
The spearhead campaign would take both Jedi to the edges of the Outer-Rim, culminating in a skirmish on the sinkhole world of Utapau where Grievous would gravely wound Obi-Wan by stabbing the blade of a lightsaber through his stomach. As his former apprentice fought the droid general one on one, Obi-Wan was able to use the force to briefly numb his pain.
As he delved deep into the force to grant him the power he needs for one last strike, Obi-Wan heard a familiar voice calling to him.
"I am proud of you, Obi-Wan."
At first Obi-Wan was taken aback. Hearing the voice of his deceased master distracted him for a moment, but calling on the force allowed him to lunge forward with his lightsaber. Before Grievous could react, Obi-Wan decapitated the Separatist commander. Neutralising the threat.
Collapsing from blood loss, the Jedi master was rushed to the nearest medical bay onboard a Republic cruiser. Despite a near brush with death, Obi-Wan survived and told Anakin about how he'd heard the voice of Qui-Gon Jinn speak to him. It was at that point that Anakin confessed something he'd hidden from his master since the beginning of the Clone War. Following the first battle of Geonosis, he had married Senator Padme Amidala of Naboo.
Whilst he was taken aback by this revelation, deep down Obi-Wan had always suspected that his feelings for Senator Amidala were more than he cared to admit. Though hesitant, Obi-Wan voiced his support for his former padawan, and promised to keep his secret. In a jokey remark, Obi-Wan then asked if Anakin knew who the father of Padme's future child would be, much to the Jedi Knight's horror.
With the elimination of General Grievous, it was believed the Clone Wars would come to an end with the capture of Count Dooku, the recently ascended Sith Lord. Though keen to finally bring peace to the galaxy, Obi-Wan and Anakin were ordered back to Coruscant for a much needed reprieve from the conflict. As they left Utapau, Grievous' final trap would reveal itself. Every sinkhole on the surface of Utapau had been layered with explosives designed to detonate two days after activation. The explosions would destroy every city on Utapau and destroy a sizeable portion of the occupying force.
The devastation would leave the surface of Utapau inhospitable. Realising the horrors that the Separatists were capable of, the Republic vowed never to end the war until their enemy was wiped from existence.
As both Anakin and Obi-Wan returned to Coruscant, Padme went into labour resulting in an unexpected surprise.
Anakin became the father of twins.
As his closest friend, the young Jedi asked Obi-Wan to be godfather to his children. Obi-Wan graciously accepted.
Though he was happy for his former padawan having the family he'd always wanted, deep down Obi-Wan felt more isolated than ever. Having lost the love of his life the Duchess Satine of Mandalore to the hands of Darth Maul, just under a year ago he couldn't help but feel heartbroken every time he saw Anakin's new family.
To distract himself, Obi-Wan would take on a new apprentice by the name of Jaylam Duos. Despite his reluctance in the past to take on a new apprentice, having wanted to not teach a pupil during a time of war, Obi-Wan decided that his declining physical condition meant it was unlikely he'd make past the war thus his choice to take on his new apprentice now.
As both master and apprentice began to move into the unknown regions of space, they'd encounter Count Dooku's newest agents. Sith acolytes, all vying for the position as Dooku's apprentice. Though Kenobi and Duos were able to defend themselves against the acolytes, the Jedi Master lost the closest friend he had during the Clone War. Clone Commander Cody was killed saving Duos' life from one of Dooku's acolytes.
In a moment of rage, Obi-Wan was able to disarm all four of Dooku's acolytes by severing their hands, only to allow them to leave. A perplexed Duos would be met by one of the first lessons Kenobi was taught by his own master.
'Revenge is not the Jedi way.'
In honour of their fallen comrade, Duos would take the former clone commander's blaster pistol and continue to use it in conjuncture with his lightsaber much to Kenobi's dismay. He considered blasters to be a crude and inelegant weapon compared to a lightsaber.
As time would progress and the recently deceased Commander Cody was replaced by Clone Captain Sendro, Kenobi's former apprentice would achieve the rank of Master before being named Grand Master of the Jedi Order as Master Yoda passed the reigns to young Skywalker. Though the transfer of power was questioned by some council members, Kenobi would openly endorse his former Padawan, claiming there was no-one more suited for the role than the Chosen One himself.
Under Skywalker's leadership, the Jedi would undertake an intensive search throughout the galaxy to locate the final piece of the puzzle needed to end the Clone War. Reigning Sith Lord, Count Dooku known by this point as the nefarious Darth Tyranus. After two weeks scouring the galaxy, Kenobi and Duos would come face to face with the Sith Lord.
The duel between the three of them would culminate in the Sith Lord besting Kenobi in lightsaber combat, but not before the Jedi Master could sever one of Dooku's hands. Even in his weakened state, the old man was able to easily best Duos in lightsaber combat and would use his blade to decapitate the young boy. Distraught, Obi-Wan declared how horrifically Dooku disgraced Qui-Gon Jinn's legacy.
In a moment of what appeared to be regret, the Sith Lord chose to leave the duel without taking Kenobi's life. This would prove to be the Count's undoing, as Kenobi was able to place a tracker on the Sith Lord's cape allowing Republic intelligence to track the Count back to his last refuge.
A moon sized battle station known as the 'Death Star'. Reunited with Skywalker, both Master and former apprentice would lead the Republic fleet into battle against the Separatists one last time, with the fate of the galaxy in their hands....
This was a bit of an experiment. There are three 60second exposures here, and during each one I adjusted the zoom ring a few times so that mulitple images developed on the same exposure.
Unfortunately each image comes out a little faint because of the limited exposure at each point and the overlying sky. Still, I though I would share it. Let me know what you think.
The Fort Worth Water Gardens, built in 1974, is located on the south end of downtown Fort Worth between Houston and Commerce Streets next to the Fort Worth Convention Center.
The urban park is frequently billed as a "cooling oasis" in the concrete jungle of downtown. Its focal points are three pools of water and a terraced knoll, which helps to shield the park from the rest of the City. Interstate 30 was relocated from its former site immediately adjacent to the Water Gardens, making the south end of the park quieter. The park now sits adjacent to Lancaster Avenue, recently landscaped and prepared for redevelopment.
The quiet, blue meditation pool is encircled with cypress trees and towering walls that are covered in thin plane of water that cascades almost 90 degrees down to the sunken blue water feature. The sound of the water on the walls evokes thoughts of a gentle rain shower.
Fort Worth Water Gardens
The aerating pool features multiple illuminated spray fountains under a canopy of large oak trees.
The main attraction of the Water Gardens is the active pool which has water cascading 38 feet (11 m) down terraces and steps into a small pool at the bottom.
The active pool experience was built for people to walk down the terraced steps and experience the power, sounds and motion of water crashing around them.

A view I think from outside the modestly-named Universal Buses Limited's Smithybridge depot, showing off two of its Optare Excels, R817/9 WJA. Perhaps as a result of hubris, Universal Buses were not with us for long and the operation was purchased by Stagecoach in 2000. 817 was sold by Stagecoach in 2001 and ended its days with Essex County Buses. 819 has been more fortunate; by 2003 it found itself converted to dual door and providing shuttle services to and from the P&O Ferry Port at Dover. I understand it, together with stablemate R818 WJA , remains active with P&O in Hull.
This got me thinking about the dual door business. It’s not often one hears of a used bus getting a door inserted. Usually opposite arrangement applies as a vehicle from a London operator is cascaded or sold on to the provinces. What do they do with all the doors, I wonder? I can’t imagine there is a ready market for used centre doors. Perhaps there’s a big pile of them somewhere, stockpiled in case of a Great Door Shortage

----In the last week during my 'almost 3 weeks' USA trip through the state of California, I stayed at June Lake east of Yosemite National Park. I had planned that location in my trip to have at least a location accessible for some clear nights if Yosemite happened to be closed during snowfall or bad weather.
The beautiful location of June Lake, with almost no light pollution at the horizon or anywhere near June Lake, (except some light from the small village itself) it was a perfect alternative for me to still have the hope to capture the Stunning Milky Way in all it's glory.
And so it happened that All roads but one
(which was 5 hours away on the other side of the Park) were closed because of snow fall..
...so June Lake it was' ...
It ended up being an Amazing last stargazing week, with 4 incredible nights of clear skies.
Walking around June Lake Village and the Stunning Lake itself, I was able to see The Milky Way with my own eyes like I've never experienced it before!
And the last night turned out being THE' 'True High point!
"Standing there as one man alone, in total darkness staring up at God's Infinite Creation, peacefully capturing it's beauty I got multiple visitations from groups of wild deer and even a Mountain lion
--Clearly aware of, but not at all disturbed by me walking around with my camera gear, they (the deer) even approached me till up to 65 feet!
It was... "Unforgettable.."

Here in Southeastern Utah, trailer homes are a popular housing option where boom and bust economies exist. In some areas, an old trailer, and or an old kitchen appliance, and or dead cars are part of the landscape and can even be considered sort of religious icons or art projects as they get traded around between family members and close friends.
I have my own trailer, (sans old kitchen appliances and dead cars) acquired years back to serve as a quiet/artistic space away from the "flying f**ks" and drywall dust that banged and floated around the house while we were remodeling our home. It now serves as storage for boating and camping gear.
On stormy evenings, when the setting sun peeks through clouds, the trailer's door and windows glow an other-worldly gold with the white siding fading to blue. The scene always seems to present itself at times when I'm cooking dinner or too tired and lazy to pick up the camera.
Last week, while photographing storm clouds, I went to the back of the house for possible rainbow views and saw the gold without any rainbow and decided to dance a little with ICM and Multiple exposure.
It's amazing what you find when you look.
