How I captured this image?
Captured from an overhead bridge crossing the main road. Below bursting with activities and characters but the one I have chosen is this as it matched my theme "Passing-by'.

On thursday and friday 8. - 9. June 2017 there was Rail Replacement Service between Berlin Ostkreuz and Berlin Frankfurter Allee on the circle line. At Ostkreuz arriving trains reversed out of the station onto a siding, and then returned onto the other track to go back south. These movement included 3 changes of direction and was carried out each 5 minutes which is remarkable.
The Belmond British Pullman 'The Golden Age of Travel' train hauled by class 67 67006 passes through Peckham Rye Station on it's way to complete a circular tour of Kent whilst it's passengers enjoy a 5 course fine dining experience. 20 May 2017
Passing Breeze
Yes, I know, this is nothing but thy love,
O beloved of my heart---
this golden light that dances upon the leaves,
these idle clouds sailing across the sky,
this passing breeze leaving its coolness upon my forehead.
The morning light has flooded my eyes---
this is thy message to my heart.
Thy face is bent from above,
thy eyes look down on my eyes,
and my heart has touched thy feet.

Very nice spring preview today. Warm with the occasional cumulus clouds passing by. Saw this interesting one passing by. Despite the glaring sun I wanted to capture this cloud due to the unique shape. So did some post-processing magic to reduce the glare as much as I could. Pleased with the result.
I was passing by this and I thought, if you don't take this shot, you are going to regret it later. This is the downtown parking gestapo at work. They are relentless. You park there and even think about not thinking about paying and you have a citation. I'm literally terrified of these people. They have these tiny booth offices with no lights on, and they sit in wait like hungry hyenas and the moment they see the feet walk away, they are out with their black scanners meeting quotas.
When I was in Louisiana, I was doing a photo shoot across the street from this major hotel, and I asked my client like 20 times if it was okay to park where we were parked because I could see the PEA (Parking Enforcement Agents) circling like buzzards over the nearby lot. We checked and where we were was fine, but not the case for the hotel lot. We came back from the shoot and were just sitting on a bench catching a breeze, and a fight broke out because this lady got the boot over night. Then another couple came and had like 2 citations, then 10 minutes later another guy got into a fight with the lot because he only ran in for a minute and got a 75$ ticket. I know this, because he was yelling this amongst other things at high volume. Talk about tough job. I know it is there job and they are just doing it, but literally no one likes them. No one. The one AND only ticket I have ever received in my life, in the 13 years I've been driving, was for ALLEGEDLY...UH-LED-JED-LEE...parking too close to a stop sign. The only reason I was parked there in the first place was they were doing construction at work building our new bigger two story parking lot, and we were forced to park on the street, but with 100 employees all having to suddenly park in limited street parking (and the nearby apartment residents pissed beyond believe that they too now had no parking), there was no room for blocks, and it was the only space I could find and not be late and what do I get...a $45 fine. I am stillll pissed to this day and that was like 6 years ago!!! Ruined my record..well not really as it doesn't go on your driving record...but I USED to be able to say I'd never gotten a ticket for anything...but no.
I'm sorry, what was I talking about?
Ah yes, my glasses full of regret. I found today, in a dusty box, my original aviators. The ones I loved because the tint was black. My current ones have a Sepia tint and I hate it because everything sort of looks yellowish. Anyway, the sun was on brightness level 1,029 today, but of course when you're taking pictures, you don't want to have a barrier between you and your subject, so I was constantly taking these off and putting them back on. I did drop them once midtown, but heard the clink and scurried to pick them up. So I took this shot then walked into the Earth Day Festival and I thought I heard a clink but I turned round and there was nothing I could see but I kept going. Halfway through the park I realized the Aviators...I just found...were now gone. Seriously! I was like, I'm going to now have to walk the 7 blocks back blinded by the light to get to the car as well as drive with no glasses...which I just found again today only to lose them. Thankfully it occurred to me that my replacement aviators were in the car so 7 blocks later, I was in Sepia vision.
It started to drizzle as I was taking photos in Chinatown. As I walked along the five foot way I saw this lady on the other side of the street, umbrella in hand to protect herself from the rain.

passing by hk for the weekend...
too short, too busy, but was good after all. =)
We were driving south last Monday evening, my father and I, with the sun setting on our right, and us driving ever deeper into Georgia. Our pickup truck and flatbed trailer looked more and more at home as we descended out of the traffic and suburbs, out into where the older Georgia has not been covered over — where towns have names like Luthersville, and farms spread across the spaces between the towns, and two-lane highways lace through the distance.
This yard was among a hundred scenes that the Cummins Diesel pulled past the passenger window, where out beyond the frantic beat of passing telephone poles were houses, fields, churches, barns, pastures, shops, and of course the frequent stands of pine. They passed at a steady sixty miles per hour except, of course, when we would hit a town, and slow down out of respect for the local populace and, perhaps, their sheriff.
This home was typical in having a separate outbuilding. They are usually used, I think, for tools and a lawn mower and perhaps a workbench. Or perhaps I am idealistic, and most of them are full of junk. The brown wood of this one looks far handsomer than the boxy corrugated sheds which brought an unfortunate flavor of mass production to other yards in the area.
