Have a great new week my friends.
I do it with gates I have found in Blois, La France,
during a holiday years ago.
I created it with PSE '25 and emphasized the second gate.
It took me a couple of weeks after having the idea for this shot to plan it all out but I got there eventually. Loads of midge bites and a broken flash (note to self: I *really* need to start using sandbags!) .... but lots of fun!

Photo taken from (slowly) moving train, hence dodgy quality!
The head end of the same coal train as in the previous shot about to reach the summit. (I had plenty of time to get here.)
Bozeman Pass, MT
The title comes from more than just the scooter pictured. Things come....things go.
Have a good week everyone.

I seem to get my best light and conditions in Summer, when the sun's heat drives conditions a little harder
L527 passes by the elevator row at Nampa Alberta with a veteran SD75I on the point. The green ex Alberta Pool elevator on the left has since been demolished.
I was fishing in a shallow bay, on Wolf Lake, in the Yukon, Canada when this cow moose emerged from the brush and ambled along the water's edge.
I have really enjoyed watching this male and female kingfisher getting to know each other. The male kingfisher passes a fish he has caught to the female in a wonderful expression of love.

For some reason 66424 just arrived in the bay of platforms 7 and 8 at Crewe. The driver jumped out and got in the other cab, waited for a few minutes before getting the road to leave.
Its these little workings that keep us meere uninformed mortals fascinated and intrigued with the railway network. I can imagine several conversations around Crewe's enthusiast community that spent a pleasant hour or so speculating the purpose of that move.
My speculation however, was brief and i quickly focused camera and mind on capturing the moment. The unplanned event had my creative juices flowing and having several conventional pictures in the bag i was on the hunt for that special opportunity.
The Crewe station anti suicide squad had recently set me free having convinced themselves that i was not a danger to myself nor society and had no intention of putting one toe beyond the yellow line thus endangering the lives of hundreds of other passengers.
I was behaving impeccably until they disappeared and then behaving like a crazy man i dropped to one knee to get a different angle my knee grazing the yellow line. Phew ! i got away with it.
The approaching Pendo had me fiddling with my camera settings to induce some intentional in camera movement whilst still keeping the Class 66 as sharp as i could. Referring to the manual step 1 said place camera on tripod......Bollocks ! tripod was in the car. Manual discarded i decided to wing it as carriage after carriage glided by.
Bingpot...this is pretty much what i had hoped for and no railway enthusiasts were harmed during the recording of this picture.
