“You need to spend time crawling alone through shadows to truly appreciate what it is to stand in the sun.” ― Shaun Hick

And if to-night my soul may find her peace

in sleep, and sink in good oblivion,

and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower

then I have been dipped again in God, and new created.

And if, as weeks go round, in the dark of the moon

my spirit darkens and goes out, and soft strange gloom

pervades my movements and my thoughts and words

then shall I know that I am walking still

with God, we are close together now the moon's in shadow.

And if, as autumn deepens and darkens

I feel the pain of falling leaves, and stems that break in storms

and trouble and dissolution and distress

and then the softness of deep shadows folding, folding

around my soul and spirit, around my lips

so sweet, like a swoon, or more like the drowse of a low, sad song

singing darker than the nightingale, on, on to the solstice

and the silence of short days, the silence of the year, the shadow,

then I shall know that my life is moving still

with the dark earth, and drenched

with the deep oblivion of earth's lapse and renewal.

And if, in the changing phases of man's life

I fall in sickness and in misery

my wrists seem broken and my heart seems dead

and strength is gone, and my life

is only the leavings of a life:

and still, among it all, snatches of lovely oblivion, and snatches of renewal

odd, wintry flowers upon the withered stem, yet new, strange flowers

such as my life has not brought forth before, new blossoms of me,

then I must know that still

I am in the hands of the unknown God,

he is breaking me down to his own oblivion

to send me forth on a new morning, a new man.

- D.H. Lawrence, Shadows (1930)

There are two "random" patterns in this red persian travertine: a more linear one (upper left) and a more chaotic one (lower right).

I hope that this pic will fit the MM rules.

Have a great MM, dear Flickr friends! ;-)

Life is a process during which one initially gets less and less dependent, independent, and then more and more dependent.

A photo of the moon eclipse during the totality phase from Paris so very low over the horizon. In France the eclipse was visible from 4h30 AM to 7h30 AM. This photo was done at 6h15 AM.

I'm very happy with all stars around the moon (zoom in to see them).

More to come soon.

Of all of Amtrak's heritage painted fleet, the Phase IV engines had proved most elusive for me. I don't think I ever even saw the prior engine, 184, before it was mysteriously repainted last year. Luckily, the new representative of the Phase IV livery is still looking fresh by the time it got to DC this weekend. After making a trip south on yesterday's Palmetto, I set out to catch the northbound return trip around Alexandria. The sun had gone into hiding by the time they appeared, but given the encroaching shadows I'm not mad about it. Hopefully this one sticks around the DC pool for a good while.

Far Behind

Song by Candlebox

Lyrics

Now maybe

I didn't mean to treat you bad

But I did it anyway

And then maybe

Some would say your life was sad

But you lived it anyway

And so maybe

Your friends, they stand around, they watch you crumble

As you falter to the ground

And then someday

Your friends, they stand beside as you were flyin'

Oh, you were flyin' oh-so high

But then someday, people look at you

For what they call their own, they watch you suffer

Yeah, they hear you calling home

And then someday, we could take our time

To brush the leaves aside so you can reach us

Hey, but you left me far behind

Now may-ay-ay-ay-be

I didn't mean to treat you oh-so bad

But I did it anyway

Now I'm saying, but may-ay-ay-ay-be

Some would say you're left with what you had

But you couldn't share the pain, no, no, no

Couldn't share the pain, they watch you suffer

Mm

Now maybe

I could have made my own mistakes

But I live with what I've known

And then maybe

We might share in something great

Won't you look at where we've grown

Won't you look at where we've gone

And then someday comes, tomorrow holds

A sense of what I fear for you in my mind

As you trip the final line

And that cold day when you lost control

Shame you left my life so soon, you shoulda told me

Hey, but you left me far behind

Now may-ay-ay-ay-be

I didn't mean to treat you oh-so bad

Oh, but I did it anyway

Now may-ay-ay-ay-be

Some would say you're left with what you had

Oh, but you couldn't share the pain, no, no, no, no

Oh no

Oh no, no, no-no, no

Oh, Lord, say

Oh, Lord

See, I know

See, I know

But may-ay-ay-ay-be

I said may-ay-ay-ay-be

Didn't mean to treat you oh-so bad

Oh, but I did it anyway, no

So m-maybe, now, oh Lord, baby

Some would say you're left with what you had

But you couldn't share the pain

Now I've said, now, times have changed, your friends they come

And watch you crumble to the ground

They watch you suffer

Yeah, they hold you down, hold on down

Said maybe love, oh, maybe love

Didn't mean to treat you bad

But you left me far behind

Left me far behind

Left me far behind

Amtrak put 164 into phase IV heritage paint to replace phase IV unit 184 which was repainted in the standard scheme after some repairs. Here the still fresh looking 164 is on the point of the Capitol Limited as it flies towards Toledo across the former NYC "Air Line" in Swanton, OH. 6/9/2023

Good morning, happy weekend

I will never outgrow "my love for horses" phase

Shot in jpg the colours were all hyper inflated. Tried a few different ways to get the colour balance back to where it should be - obviously still needs some more work/somebody that knows what they’re doing. Still, it’s a stunning common tree snake (dendrelaphis punctulata, blue phase) and no bad photography or editing on my part can take that away.
