Amtrak's Phase III heritage unit returns to the Pittsburgh Line pulling the eastbound Pennsylvanian. After the brief station stop at Lewistown, 145 throttles up, completes the crossover from track 2 to 1, and continues eastward

Firing a phaser is fairly easy to make: set up a bezier curve, apply a physical constraint to a cylinder to follow the curve, and insert the necessary keyframes in the timeline.

 

For the "world" shader I used a star map from NASA (credits: NASA/Goddard Space Flight Center Scientific Visualization Studio. Constellation figures based on those developed for the IAU by Alan MacRobert of Sky and Telescope magazine (Roger Sinnott and Rick Fienberg)).)

 

Can you spot the Big Dipper?

 

It took me a while to figure out how to set this up. In the world sharder editor: use a texture coordinate - mapping - environment texture. Connect the "camera" of the texture coordinate to the vector of the mapping node and in the scale options of the mapping node, set X and Y to 3 (leave Z at 1).

 

Connect the "color out" of the environment texture to a "RGB to BW" node, and feed this into a RGB curve node. Then drag this curve down to get rid of all the noise.

 

Connect the output of the RGB curve node to the color of the background node and connect the latter to the surface of the world output, as usual.

   

Both in Phase IV paint, Amtrak P32-8BWH 518 and P42DC 184 sit at the Lumber Street engine shops in Chicago. Since this shot, 518- including its A/C unit with a little scrap of the original "Pepsi Can" paint- has been repainted into Phase V.

At Hawthorne Yard on Indy's east side, five Amtrak P40DCs (four in Phase IV), built in 1993, are waiting to be shipped out to its new owner, Larry's, after years of rusting away at Amtrak's Beech Grove shops, and before that, Bear, Delaware. #813 and the rest of these P40s were the first of over two-hundred Genesis units built for Amtrak between 1993 and 2001; the P40s were subsequently stored after only a decade of service.

Frost occurs when water vapor in the air deposits on a surface when the outside temperature drops below 0 °C (32 °F). Because no liquid form of water is present, this is an example of deposition—a phase change directly from a gas to a solid without going through the liquid phase

Amtrak 184 blasts through Manteno with the northbound City of New Orleans.

Very unusual creatures, the Phase Dragons somehow feed on their own kinetic energy. The faster they go, the more energy they get. They enjoy chasing all sorts of fast things, like vehicles and other Rahi. When they finally catch up, they pounce, only to phase through their target harmlessly. They then wander off to find something else to chase.

The trail down Sahale Arm, before dropping toward Cascade Pass. The air moved quickly and clouds would often completely overtake the landscape.

This shows the life cycle of the musk thistle.

A single frame from the timelapse I used to make the previous time stack image.

It was interesting to see the phases of the passing storm all at once. It was pretty small and moving quickly, and the shape reminded me of a roll cloud (long and skinny, but it didn't have much roll to it) The camera was set up perpendicular to the storms movement, looking down (up?) the length of the storm, so you can see the clear sky ahead of it, the storm front, the turbulent area of the body and the tail followed by stratus clouds.

I spent Tuesday trying on dresses I could never afford.

 

This one was something of a surprise because I didn't think it would look good.

 

Possibly a size down would have been better but none the less it look nice,

 

Really should take a proper camera with me as the old phone doesn't take the best photos at times

Today's Waning Gibbous Phase of the moon. The Waning Gibbous on January 7 has an illumination of 100%. This is the percentage of the Moon illuminated by the Sun. The illumination is constantly changing and can vary up to 10% a day. On January 7 the Moon is 15.25 days old. This refers to how many days it has been since the last New Moon. It takes 29.53 days for the Moon to orbit the Earth and go through the lunar cycle of all 8 Moon phases. #moon #astronomy #moonphotography #luna #lunaphotography #astrophotography #laluna #nikonp1000 #blogto #toronto #torontosky #canada #astro_photography_ #seaoftranquility #seaofserenity #moonlight #moonphases #supermoon #moonlovers #moonwatch #mooncraters #tycho #copernicus #apollocrater #aristoteles #aristarchus #astrophotography #moonphoto #Aquarius #waninggibbous

Amtrak P42 #69 glides past the shell of TRRA Tower 1 as it approaches Gateway Station in St. Louis. The 69 is one of a few P42's dressed in the Phase VII paint scheme and is a welcome sight versus the Chargers assigned to the state supported trains between Chicago and Kansas City.

The walker is my fiend Tom, a skinny lad. We were both looking for a street shot on the streets of Saigon. When he passes by an ad board of a well-gymed man I can't help taking this picture. Just the right moment: Contrast between dark and light - Contrast between the skinny man and a well-shaped model. We both got good laughs.

Moon Phase Today: November 23, 2020

The Moon's current phase for today and tonight is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This phase is when the moon is more than 50% illuminated but not yet a Full Moon. The phase lasts round 7 days with the moon becoming more illuminated each day until the Full Moon. During a Waxing Gibbous the moon will rise in the east in mid-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset. The moon is then visible though most of the night sky setting a few hour before sunrise. The word Gibbous first appeared in the 14th century and has its roots in the Latin word "gibbosus" meaning humpbacked.
