In 1992-93, Amtrak tested the Swedish-built X2000. The train was built by Kalmar Verkstad, and leased to Amtrak, who tested the train and then used it in revenue service for a few months in early 1993. From May to July 1993, the train was taken on a national tour and displayed around the Amtrak system. Here, the high-speed train negotiates the Soo Line (former Milwaukee Road) trackage past Cut Off Tower in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, on June 28, 1993. The train will clear the interlocking and then back to Milwaukee’s downtown Amtrak station. It was a very wet year (remember the flooding?) and this with the combination of leaking grain cars makes Cut Off look a bit more green than usual!
When life gives you lemons
Instead of champagne
You can be bitter
Or you can be better

My feelings for this photo keep going back and forth, I was caught off-guard by this Killdeer's sudden take off (If my memory serves me, it was to chase off a rival), and I underexposed the image as well as clipped the wings in an awkward spot, making it hard to make it look intentional. Anyways, after deliberately searching for this image on my old computer, I edited it a little (Toned down the highlights and tried to bring light into the shadows) and posted it here.

My first look at Sandhill Cranes was somewhat frustrating as the birds were quite distant and most of the take offs were in very poor light. These two hung around after the flock had departed and while still distant, the light came around nicely.

It's so nice to finally get spring, but things look so dirty. This would have looked so much better with a light dusting to cover up all the dirt in the snow. Oh well, at least it's getting warmer.

Climb aboard the Rover Bus and let's go on this adventure together.

Mi ero spinta sin dove finiva la bancbina, mentre attendevo il mio treno.
Tranquilli, volevo solo scattare una foto. Mi ha sempre affascinato il groviglio dei binari, il loro incontrarsi e dividersi in un gioco senza fine
Conrail C40-8W 6081 was leading train Z413 westward on the B&O's Belt Line in Baltimore in a view taken from North Avenue in 1993.
At the time, Conrail was running over CSX tracks to avoid Amtrak's Northeast Corridor in the wake of the Ricky Gates fiasco.

The storms rolled through the day before cutting off our intended visit to the Kalbarri National Park, so our visit the next day had to be quick as we had to head south.
This meant we were limited to the Kalbarri Skywalk. Hopefully, we will get back soon to do at least an overnight walk into the gorges.

If I hadn't filled up a card and drained a battery I would have still been out there shooting these adorable Burrowing Owls. This particular shot with all the expressions spoke volumnes to me and I couldn't help laughing when I saw it. I hope you see it too...:)

An old bi-plane takes off from a grass airstrip in the middle of England, against a dramatic sunset sky.
Some people have commented on the fact that the propeller is stationary........
well it COULD be ..........
".... because the young Pilot stalled the engine soon after taking off, and just after the `plane passed over head, it crashed into the Airport Control Tower in a ball of fire............the Pilot and all the Staff survived unhurt....."
