It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?"
~Winne-the-Pooh, A.A. Milne
In these turbulent times, wishing you all a Happy Furry Friday....!
Feel the love, a little closer.
...A ruined Pennine farm. Built from beautifully dressed stone, and carving some sort of living from what is very wild and marginal land. No services, no road access, and usually wild weather. That's optimism.

Abtransport der Zeit
Zeit spielt eine Rolle. Vor allem bei Transporten von A nach B. Die Zeit bringt alles in Bewegung. Sie spielt mit mir. Was könnte sie anderes tun? Sie wendet meinen Blick in die Zukunft und spielt mir Illusionen vor. Sie hält mir die Vergangenheit vor Augen, die verpassten Gelegenheiten, die Dramen und die Freuden.
Doch wird die Gegenwart für mich immer wichtiger. Vergangenheit und Zukunft finden jetzt statt. Die Vergangenheit befindet sich in Form einer traditionellen Umgebung um mich herum (Bauernhof). Tradition ist in meinem Alltag integriert und die Zukunft gebiert sich in jedem Augenblick. Ich habe keine Vorstellungen von ihr. Ich mache keine Pläne. Und doch schmiedet sich alles ganz von selbst auch der Alltag mit Hühnern, Tauben und Katze.
Kleinvieh macht Mist für den Bauerngarten. Der Alltag wird zur Idylle. Die Zeit in einem Traum oder einem Märchen steht still, oder sie macht Sprünge. Im Augenblick spielt Zeit keine Rolle.

I love concepts which appear quite deep and dark but have optimism hidden within them. I've always been a glass-half-full kind of person so even if I feel down and make an image in the response to my emotions I always like it to have a sense of hope. It's like finding the inner beauty of a situation.
keep on the sunny side, always on the sunny side, keep on the sunny side of life
Now try and get that song out of your head, you are welcome ;P
This friendly young man waited on me yesterday I couldn't help but noticed his positive attitude and jovial disposition!
Optimism is the main secret to longevity!!!...

Okay... My first test-flight didn't go as well as I certainly expected.
No worries.
Good science is based on keen observation, assessment, and continued experimentation within updated and controlled parameters.
Previously, I wasn't high enough and needed more propellers. In hindsight, I do feel a little dumb on the matter. Three is the magic number.
No worries.
This time, I'm scaling the Eiffel Tower in Trafalgar Circus for my next scientific leap into Famousdom.
Not only did the ground hog enjoy a shadow-free exit from his hutch in Punxatawny, Pennsylvania, but I saw robins this weekend! Two indications that spring is not far away.
a young person is radiant in the mid afternoon sun. the bag repeats the oft recycled phrase "be the change you want to see in the world." this quote has two traits that most bite-sized aspirational phrases share: it is lovely in its concept and confounding in practice. but perhaps this person believes in the power of the phrase and is living their life in accordance with it to the best of their ability. maybe they have a vision of a better world and are living as if it is not only possible, but already here. today, i'm choosing optimism.
i am so optimistic in the mornings... about what i can do or get done in the course of the day.
i find i turn into a pessimist by the end of the day... is it because of my expectations?
explore :)
this concept started out as a project i had for printmaking. we were given a thorn branch and told to brainstorm about what this makes us think of.
i instantly thought of someone being caught in a tough point in their life. i wanted an image of a girl that had fallen into the thorns where they had pierced through her.
obviously, my concept changed from that a bit. it's funny how meeting amazing people can completely change your view on things.
i will not fall.
You know, I’ve only ever shot anything on the NS Bloomington district once - by total accident. Now I can make that twice, and still by accident! What started as a day I just decided to get out of the house and grab of a photo of some equipment in Tolono turned into my first look at the signals on the NS line and a chase to remember.
Thanks to a headsup and some on-the-fly information from some friends, I was able to catch NS D36 flying through the CP at Osman at speed. A short hike alongside the right-of-way off of a small gravel road leads to Osman, home of a very nice set of searchlight signals. With SafeTran signals cropping up al over the line, it begs the question of just how long we'll have to shoot them.
Once the train blew through Osman, it was time to scurry back to the car and try to beat it to Lodge!
Okay, I have this totally down. I'm dressed rather well for the occasion; a nice gothic dress, no make-up ( this IS for science, don'tcha know ), EXA-1 elbow-pads, and knee-pads, and a snazzy helmet. Don't forget safety-glasses, kids, if you try this at home!
Besides, the first test is only three or so stories high. And with so many super-heroes working tables across the street, you won't find me singing "Somebody Save Me", on the way down.
It's in the bag!
First flight results soon!
Well, two days of diametric opposites.
After yesterday's sun-soaked afternoon in West Cumbria a repeat forecast for today brought with it much optimism.
I was on the same shift as yesterday and this meant a 14.20 finish.
With the closure of the Tyne Valley line due to post-flood landslips the 6E44 / 6M60 Seaton flasks now have to divert through Scotland to get to Sellafield. This normally out & back same day caper is currently a two dayer and I knew that the (now 6Z60) return to the nuclear plant was in for today as 6Z44 had run yesterday.
To accommodate the diversion today's train was timed away from Seaton at 06.24 as opposed to the usual 13.25. and in fact got away 33 early.
It was timed through Workington at 16.24 as opposed to the standard 6M60's 16.52 and when I left work it was running about 20 minutes early.
With sunset just before 17.00 the earlier it ran the better as I knew that the recently refurbished 37069 was heading up this jolly and I wanted a shot of it.
Unfortunately time was lost in the Carlisle area and instead of leap-frogging the 2C38 CAR - BIF, as I'd hoped, it maintained its booked path. This, combined with predicted cloud rolling in from the west ahead of schedule, meant that hopes of a sunny shot by the sea at Moss Bay were shot to pieces and I instead headed north to meet the train at Flimby to see if I could salvage something in the gloom.
The brick pier to the left is one of the supports for Flimby station footbridge. The bridge was removed a couple of months ago "for a few weeks" for refurbishment. Still no sign of it!
Just realised that it's 3 years & 10 months since I last photted this loco, it was on the Seaton flasks then too!
