NS181 recently hosted the NS8100, the Nickel Plate Road heritage unit. There's not a ton of places to easily snap the side of trains on the Lafy on the north side of the track - a necessity when summertime sun beams down from the northwest late in the day. Over by Piatt, however, there is a nice little spot clear of brush and anything else that might block a shot. May not have been golden hour, but the evening sun does have a nice sheen that makes the gold on the NKP really shine. Though it is in need of a good wash (but will probably get new paint first), it's a pretty sharp unit. Glad to bag a pair of shots of it.
Seeds were just barely starting to poke up out of the ground here... they've definitely grown a fair bit in the last few weeks. Seemed like just days before all the fields were just plain dirt. Always surprises me how quick things grow!

'I can lie for hours at a time and watch the flow of a stream… a fold or break of current, a burst of bubbles or the ripple of a stone releases in me a flood of satisfaction that must, I think, be akin to that which a philosopher feels as his mind is opened to a profound truth. I feel larger, and better and stronger for it in ways that have nothing to do with any common gain in practical knowledge.'

Happy fiftieth anniversary to America's Wilderness Act…
A While (okay a long while) ago, I posted images of my updated TIE fighter, since then I've had a number of people request instructions, but for one reason or another I just haven't made them.. until now!
Since uploading the images, I've made a few adjustments, mostly making use of the new quarter and rounded tiles which I think improves the look quite a bit.
I hope people find these useful and I'll happily answer any questions if there is anything I've left unclear :) Enjoy!
By far the most exotic plate I have ever seen! This motorcycle is parked at Parking Foch for at least 6 months now and still has those wonderful plates! I would like to thank my friend Hadri45 who told me about that plate, otherwise I wouldn't have noticed it!
It's very tatty and has half of a different plate stuck to the back so I'm not really sure what's going on here I still took it
Dinner Plate Dahlias. I planted a surprise bag of dahlia bulbs this past Spring and was surprised by having a beautiful dinner plate dahlia bloom this Fall. Used Oil Glaze, but bumped up the Paint Opacity. Topaz Impression. These dahlias are huge!
Transnistrian plates (but also Abkhazian and South Ossetian plates) are not rare in St-Petersburg! This one is from the capital of this unofficial state, who wants to separate from Moldova!
Spotted near Gallereya shopping mall, my first Kyrgyz plate of my stay! This one is my first plate from Jalal-Abad, in the Western part of the country, close to Uzbek border!
Distance from home: 4515 km.
My first plate from Bashkortostan, in the Ural region! This plate is a non-standard one, that's a normal plate which should be white (black plates are usually for military vehicles, but they have another system!)
Distance from home: 4225 km.
Spotted on Mont-Blanc bridge, my first temporary plate from Andorra! Too bad the quality is quite bad!
Distance from home: 760 km.
