The North Wales Express steaming its through the brickwork wedges that lift and support a large gauge pipeline across the Crewe to Chester railway line. Maybe mains water from nearby Hurleston Reservoir?

Titan Pipeline Defence
I joined the Octan Security Services straight out of the Spaceforce. After a four year tour on Earth's moon trying to keep the locals under control while resentment of Earth-gov control became endemic. The final uprising, caused by a Spaceforce ship crashing into a school bus was nasty and I saw things. Things no one should see, things I won't talk about.
So here I am on Titan, sixth moon of Saturn, where the rocks are made of water, hard as granite and the rivers and lakes are liquid hydrocarbons, methane and ethane, all the 'thanes' as Gunther puts it. Gunther is my boss here, he basically sits in the control room and tells us where the Meth-Roaches are swarming, he's okay, pretty messed up from stuff he saw on the moon too though.
Meth-Roaches? Yeah, well when humans got here to Titan there was no life, not even bacteria. Great for the oil companies of course, nothing for the hippies to protest about. The Mars settlers wanted to burn hydrocarbons to create an atmosphere, the oil companies had a nice new supply of them. All great, but 'life finds a way' as that old movie put it. The bacteria mutated first, but we weren't watching for that then the roaches first learned to cope with the intense cold, then somehow their mitochondrial DNA started to run on methane instead of oxygen. The scientists tell me it was probably from eating the bacteria. Then they took the moon for themselves, titanic Roaches on Titan. Almost funny.
Most of them eat the bacteria or each other, the problem is the pipelines are slightly warmer, so the bacteria grow more around them, the Methane Roaches (Meth-Roaches) chomp on it, lots of leaks follow.
So I'm a bug squisher! We can shoot them if there's good cause, but firing lasers has a small chance of igniting the landscape (if we hit a pocket of frozen oxygen) and the gattling-railgun is hard to get ammunition for, so we generally stamp on them, they crunch quite satisfyingly. The pays pretty good, too and there are no Lunar-citizens throwing IED's at me. In another five years when my contract is done I should be able to buy a house in an area of Earth where the environment is still reasonable or maybe Mars, lots of room on Mars. Life is good.
Time to finally kick off 2014 - albeit with a photo taken almost a year to the day.
For all kinds of reasons my photography output dropped off dramatically in 2013 and so far hasn't shown signs of improving. I'm really trying though to get back in that groove. I even wrote a little write up of 2013 just to remind myself I can take photos - it's here if you want to read it:

I'm also planning a little trip into London for a couple of days early in Feb. I'd really be keen to here any tips, suggestions, advice from any photographer friends who are used to photographing in London (or any other major city for that matter) on locations, what to bring (should I take my rucksack and full kit or am I better carrying an over the shoulder bag and my tripod in a separate bag to be less conspicuous) etc. Not sure on details yet but if anyone else has plans to be in London early in Feb, let me know!
Anyway Happy New Year to everyone - sorry to those who I've failed miserably to stay in contact with. Another challenge for 2014!

This is the Pipeline Remains at the ww1 heritage site, the quarantine station. this would of been built around the 1850's- 1920's... it has outlasted the old quarantine station pier that used to be right next to it, the only thing that remains of that is two pilings. although there is a multi million dollar proposal to revamp this old site and one of the plans is to reinstall a replica pier.

The crew of Montana Rail Link's Gas Local has just finished swapping loads for empties at Pipeline (just east of Thompson Falls), and is on its way back to Missoula.
Here is a shot of the Alaska Pipeline coming down to Fairbanks, Alaska. It's fall and I like that there's red in this image, but we don't have maple trees, so a fall color shot with the trees doesn't have the reds in it.

First light and last light for a menhaden about to enter the gullet of a Tri-colored Heron on Horsepen Bayou.
The Trans-Alaska Pipeline System is an oil transportation system spanning Alaska, including the trans-Alaska crude-oil pipeline, 11 pump stations, several hundred miles of feeder pipelines, and the Valdez Marine Terminal. TAPS is one of the world's largest pipeline systems.
The pipe is mounted on slider pads in case of earth quake or ground movement. The devices on top of the support poles pull heat from the ground and keeps the permafrost frozen to support the pipe year round. The pipeline is under constant electronic and maned surveillance at all times for potential problems, mechanical or Human...

This plane was circling low and took three large sweeps back and forth in each direction above and the clouds provided a great accent. The words "PIPELINE PATROL" are printed in large letters under the wings. You can read them in the next shot. There are natural gas lines in the area.
