This was one shot I had held off uploading for a long time, partly because of the rather poor or low lighting in this shot. Came back to take a second look at it and thought that I might do a creative look on it instead.
In this case, I decided to leave most of the shot dark and underexposed to give it a bit of the underground feel.

One shot In took on our hike through the woods around Bad Münstereifel yesterday. At this time of the year you can find thousands of them in the forrest near my hometown.

November 5, 1995 was quite a day for me on the Santa Fe. It got started when the local country music station played Asleep at the Wheel’s lively version of Get Your Kicks on Rt 66 as I drove through Kingman Arizona on Andy Devine Ave (Rt 66) before sunrise. I had some specific shots around Kingman planned but I didn’t know how true the song would become. By the end of the day, I had made all the planned shots and more. I had been up and down the canyon and east and west to shoot at least 17 different trains. I also didn’t know it would be my last time shooting the Santa Fe before the merger.
I previously posted one shot from that day and have an album with shots from that day. www.flickr.com/photos/crr200/albums/72177720304664608 I’ll be adding to the album over the next several days.
One of the items on my agenda for the day was to get up as high on the side of the canyon as I could. Here's a westbound snaking around the water plant on the north track with the south track visible on the right side and old Rt 66 on the left.
Royal Terns and one lone Black Skimmer are trying to prevent heat loss to their unfeathered body parts. On cold or windy days, shorebirds often can be seen resting with their beaks tucked away among their feathers, sometimes combined with standing on one leg.
This flock and the photographer were experiencing high winds on the intertidal flats ( temporary habitat at low tide). These sandy/mud flats disappear as the water rises at high tide.
I managed to get one shot and then fought my way back to my car, walking into the strong winds. When I arrived at my car, which was far back from the beach, there was barely a breeze!

Its not very often that you can get three different countries in one shot. Aqaba Railway Corporation (ARC) locos. Nos.314 and 303 are seen departing the Jordanian city of Aqaba with an empty Phosphate train for the mine at Ma'an. The Israeli tourist resort of Eilat can be seen to the right of the shot and to the left of the Pylon is Egypt. They are all set in the Gulf of Aqaba. 26-02-2012.

One shot from today's hike. After I haven't been there for more than 20 years, we went to a spot near Mechernich, called "Katzensteine". It ist located in the Eifel-region in Germany. What a beautiful place this is. It also made for some nice pictures of old rocks and trees!
Been a bit distracted lately but one thing I was working on was a B&W shot of the garlic family, This is one shot from that study.
It seems like I took this a long time ago but I see it wasn't that long. I hope this shot provides a moment of distraction.
All the best in these turbulent times and hope this day finds you safe and in good health! The cause of my distraction and reason I've been a bit absent from flickr lately is I'm approaching retirement and I'm a bit stressed. I was looking to finish out my 40 year career in style, big luncheon planned, lot's of hugging, reminiscing with old friends. Now with the added concern over COVID-19, we postponed the luncheon and I've been working from home for the last week. I cleared out my desk from work but still have another week, 10 days to be precise until my last day on 31 March. Very strange indeed and now I just want to get to the 31st and quell some of this anxiety along with the uncertainty of COVID-19. Well, I'll hang in there so we'll see!
Hunker down, wash those hands and keep your distance from other folk but most of all remember that we're all in this together.
