NS 1030 loaded crude oil train is waiting for a westbound Z train at the ESS Milledgeville.. Note a loaded coal car for the buffer car. This was the only time I saw this kinda car used as a buffer car...
Nice Milky Way galaxy core appears over a pair of metal art dinosaur sculptures at Galleta Meadows in Borrego Springs. These sculptures are the work of Ricardo Breceda. You can visit Ricardo Breceda’s Art Gallery in Aguanga, California.
Shot with a Canon EOS R, Sigma 24 mm f/1.4 lens, and a Hoya Red Starscape light pollution filter on May 12, 2023.
Note: These sculptures are on private land - of which the public is welcome to visit - and are not inside the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park.
The late Dennis Avery (of Avery Labels fame) donated the land and now his children maintain the property.
Mr. Avery had 130 large scale, free-standing, metal sculptures produced by artist Ricardo Breceda, and referred to them as Sky Art. Spread over 1500+ acres of undeveloped desert land, these larger than life creations welcome the public to discover and enjoy art outdoors, surrounded by the rich and diverse desert environs of Borrego Springs.
The Under the Sun Foundation seeks to breathe new life and meaning into the existing sculptures.
Thank you to Kamala Venkatesh for asking me to go on a very last-minute trip out here to photograph the Milky Way. We were originally going to go to Julian, but the fog and clouds rolled in. Fortunately the skies were nice and clear down here in the desert.

Blackbird sings from the highest spot around to defend his territory.
Just had the sensor cleaned on the Nikon D40. Lovely to see sky shots with no blemishes!
From the high point of the escarpment , looking backwards to where I just came from,
The great circuit walk at the Quiraing on the Isle of Skye.
The walk is magical, because each part of it is unique.

Weather was ever changing. Sometimes sun would come out giving opportunity for a better photos.
The Quiraing is the largest landslide in Britain, but it is not a torrential rain-induced landslides. It’s part of something much larger in size.
The weight of all volcanic rock, formed 50million years ago, slowly took its toll on the weaker Jurassic sedimentary rock below, which fractured and broke under the strain, and volcanic rock have been slipped down the hillside; this process is still going.

Thank you very much for your comments and faves, regretfully, I am finding it increasingly difficult to reply to your comments, because of my very limited time on the internet, due to constant power interruptions in South Africa. I do read and appreciate every one of them, however! Thanks again!!
Distant trees just beyond the flooded farm field blanketed in smoke from a local farmer’s selective burning practices...a proven method in Springtime to revitalize the soil as well as for brush and weed control.
Note: Photoshop doesn’t live here...power lines were not removed in order to tell it like it is.
