For the first time since 2017, Amtrak participated in Union Depot's "Train Days" sending a handful of passenger cars and newly minted 50th anniversary heritage engine 161.

 

Engine 161 is almost an identical twin to 156, the 40th-anniversary unit that wore the same scheme, though 161 has a highly reflective "50" on the side.

 

Though it wasn't "Midnight Blue" (Post Office engine 100) or the "Pepsi Can", that phase 1 is pretty spiffy!

 

Thanks to Steve G & Jeff Terry for putting on a fantastic impromptu night shoot.

 

This might be the first time I've "properly" shot an Amtrak train on the depot platform.

Built in phases between 1911 and 1959, this Prairie and Organic Modern-style house and office were designed by Frank Lloyd Wright to serve as his family residence and studio, with two fires leading to substantial reconstruction of the house in 1914 and 1925. The house, which is named “Taliesin”, Welsh for “Shining Brow” or “Radiant Brow”, referring to the hill upon which it is situated, is a long and rambling structure with multiple sections built at different times, with the building serving as a living laboratory for Wright’s organic design philosophy, as well as growing with Wright’s family, wealth, and business. The house sits on a hill surrounded by fields, but is notably located below the top of the hill, which Wright saw as being such a significant feature of the landscape that it should remain untouched by the house’s presence. The house’s westernmost wings served as the home of livestock and farm equipment, as well as a garage, later becoming housing for the Taliesin Fellowship, where aspiring architects apprenticed with Frank Lloyd Wright. The central wing served as the Frank Lloyd Wright studio, where Wright and his apprentices and employees worked on projects for clients, as well as where Wright often met with clients. The eastern wing served as the Wright family’s residence, and was rebuilt twice, in 1914 and 1925, after being destroyed by fire, and is overall the newest section of the complex, though some portions of the west and central wings were added after the main phase of construction of the residence was complete.

 

The house is clad in stucco with a wooden shingle hipped and gabled roof, with stone cladding at the base and on piers that often flank window openings, large casement windows, clerestory windows, outdoor terraces and balconies, stone chimneys, and glass french doors, all of which connect the interior of the building to the surrounding landscape. The interior of the buildings feature vaulted ceilings in common areas, stone floors, stone and plaster walls, decorative woodwork, custom-built furniture, and multiple decorative objects collected by Wright during his life. The exterior of the house has a few areas distinctive from the rest of the structure, with a cantilevered balcony extending off the east facade drawing the eye towards the surrounding landscape from the living room of the residence, next to a large set of glass doors that enclose the living room and adjacent bedroom from a shallower cantilevered terrace, while to the west of the residence, and south of the central wing, is a landscaped garden, which rests just below the crest of the hill.

 

The building was the full-time home of Wright from 1911 until 1937, when Wright began to spend his winters at Taliesin West in Phoenix, Arizona, due to the effects of the Wisconsin winters on his health. For the rest of Wright’s life, the house was the summer home of Wright and the Taliesin Fellowship, and following his death, the house was deeded to the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation, which operated and maintained the house as a museum and the home of multiple programs until 1990. Since 1990, the house has been under the stewardship of the nonprofit Taliesin Preservation Inc., which operates the house in conjunction with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. The building is a contributing structure in the Taliesin Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973, and designated a National Historic Landmark in 1976. Taliesin was one of eight Frank Lloyd Wright buildings listed as The 20th-Century Architecture of Frank Lloyd Wright World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 2019. Today, Taliesin is utilized as a museum, offering tours and interpretation of Frank Lloyd Wright’s life and work.

The first generation Daily was developed and presented by Fiat, although FIAT Veicoli Industriali was already part of Iveco at that time.

Iveco was officially found in January 1975 with the merger of Fiat, OM, Unic and Magirus-Deutz.

Till 1982 the Daily was sold under the Fiat brand name. The Fiat logo was in the center of the grille, while a small Iveco logo was to the right at the bottom of the grille. From 1982 to 1983 it was exactly the opposite, like in this case. After 1983 the Fiat logo, or also OM and Unic logo, disappeared totally.

The digit 35 indicates the maximum load capacity of 3.5 tons.

Quick doodle of a shuttle "landing" or phasing into N-space. The shuttle is fairly goofy but the angular shape was fun and above all easy to place around with transparency effects.

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

Total Solar Eclipse Phases from start to finish, as seen and photographed from Trinity Overlook Park with Cindy @offdutyeyedoc, Mike @bb49r, and many others on April 8, 2024, from 12:23 PM - 3:06 PM! In spite of the clouds coming in and out during the entire Solar Eclipse phases, I am so thankful that I was able to see and capture all phases of the Solar Eclipse well, in order create this composite of all Solar Eclipse phases.

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.

   

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.

The Black Hawk is Oceania's medium lift utility helicopter with blades that goes Brrrrrr.

 

Crewed by two pilots, two gunners, and is equipped with troop accommodations for eight, which can be removed to accommodate four full-sized medical litters

 

Built for the future mlitary groupd World In Darkness.

Confession time... if you've been keeping up with my helicopter phase... this Black Hawk was actually the first chopper I built - and while watching Blackhawk Down, I decided I needed little birds to go with it... and well... at that point I might as well build an Apache (my other favorite helicopter as kid)...

 

Though I saved this one for last as it was part of the scene I had envisioned for @worldinDarkness group.

This is kind of cheating because I didn't take it this week, nor is it a self-portrait. Oops. I'll do my best to retake this week, but I'd like to put this here so I have something if I don't have time to.

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.

Found all my moon pics and decided to put them together.

Moon phases tank top coming soon exclusively at Kreepy Kawaii ( April 10 - 17 )

The Phase 2 heritage takes the lead of Amtrak 8 as it descends Shortline Hill on the CP Merriam Park Sub. It’s running two hours late but that helped the shadows clear away. This unit recently got a new paint job making me want to catch it even more. So finally got the chance on this day.
