On Topeka's northwest side is the junction known as Menoken. Here, the Salina Sub breaks off to the west, while the Kansas Sub continues on towards Marysville. For context, that's the US 24 overpass in the background.
Here, the UP 7911 west is pulling a manifest through the junction on its way towards Marysville and North Platte. Trailing in the consist were a pair of freshly repainted GP60E rebuilds; the 1089, and 1061.

The Aurora Borealis put on quite a show last night. I rushed out to catch some of it and I could have been better prepared. Standing around with my camera at -25C in a pair of Jeans isn't the smartest way to go. To say I was cold is a bit of an understatement. Still, I did get a few nice shots before I absolutely had to come home. It was one of the most spectacular shows I've seen in many many years. The greens and reds were dancing all over the sky. In this photo, I captured near the end of my time out there, the lights were really truly kicking off. They were dancing all over the sky in front of me above me and behind me. A few other cars had also arrived with people to look and wonder at the majesty of it all.

Puffins on Skomer Island, Pembrokeshire
despite being heavily cropped I think this works due to the combination of the 45Mp on the R5, the sharpness of the RF L lens and the enlargement AI capabilities of ON1.
Hope everyone has had a great weekend.

With the primary grade crossings in Titusville now clear of snow and ice, 3568 continues on to work customers on the east side of town.

Have you ever thought about living "off the wall"? That's what the two characters of my latest creation did. They probably ended up living like this because of an all-out war that wiped everything out. However they seem quite happy.
This diorama joins my two previous post-apoc works, namely Floating Dystopia and Crazy Bus.
I included some references and easter eggs: the tile with the Blue Cottage as a tribute to set 21338; the Citroën 2CV as an homage to Hayao Miyazaki; the white boat (on the roof!) for my recent 1OK IDEAS Stilt House; many other details that come from my previous works.
Have fun spotting them all!

Taken with some difficulty through our neighbour's tree at almost the same spot as the Possum/Galah confrontation the other day - we heard a Kookaburra laughing and I noticed one sitting on the far right end of the power pole cross arm (out of sight on the right) followed by a Magpie landing on the other end. Oh no, problems for sure. As I grabbed the camera and moved a bit to position myself, at the left hand end and middle were a further two Kookas with the Magpie keeping a watchful eye....surprisingly close. Magpies take exception to Kookaburras and usually take chase. In time, as I typed this the Noisy Miners joined in. The Kookas decided to retreat as usual. Game over.
Today 19 June.
This is only about my second attempt at waterfall photography because there are not many down this way. This is a lovely spot called Osmington Mills on the Jurassic Coast. We were in Weymouth yesterday for an event. I knew it was going to be a cloudless sunset so I had an idea of coming here and filling the frame with the waterfall with some early evening light.
And I think its paid off with the help of my KASE circular polariser/6 stop filter.
I will definatly return on a more atmospheric day, lots of interesting rock ledges too.
This battle is pretty unfair, because the poor cricket is attacked by two scorpions. Fully focused on his earthly adversary, he does not seem to be aware of the looming danger from above...
