Some more work from 2008. One of the local oil platforms shot from Huntington Beach, CA. I underexposed and processed for a slide film look.

In 1984, shortly before our son was born, we spent a week or two in Paris. The RATP had discovered the allure of nostalgia and purchased a small number of Saviem SC10s with open rear platforms. The arrangements differed from those of the pre-war Renaults in that access was only from the saloon, rather that the rear or side of the platform. However it afforded the same plein air experience as its antecedents
Myoden Station in Chiba Prefecture, on the Tozai Subway Line. This is where I crawl off a train at 7.50 in the morning to start a day's work, and where I hop, skip and jump onto a train at 4.15 in the afternoon, ready to submerge into a book for an hour on the way home. First roll with my brand new secondhand T2.
I went to London last weekend with Isabel for a jolly to the Tate
Modern. It turned into quite a long journey, as the trains were
diverted and half the tube was shut down, so I didn't get much time to
stop and take pretty pictures. This one I was quite pleased with
though.

This is, I think, crying out for a bit of subtle HDR post work.
Unfortunately, I've never done HDR, and didn't have the time to learn,
or sort out the tools to get the RAW photo off the camera. Perhaps
another time.
I particularly encourage critical comments.

The day of the visit to Dartmouth in South Devon was quite busy as the town was getting ready for the Dartmouth Royal Regatta.
We had a look around the town first, before our scheduled Paddle Steamer river cruise along the River Dart.
Platform 1 - South Embankment, Dartmouth. This is now Platform 1 Champagne Bar & Restaurant.
This was Dartmouth Station built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. He wanted his railway to go over the River Dart, but permission was refused.
But he built the station building anyway, so was a boat crossing instead.

terminus. c1864-70. Timber-framed, of large-panel framing with
middle rails covered internally with vertical boards, all
painted, on a brick plinth; hipped roof of coated slate.

One of two-existing EMD RS1325 locomotives heads back to pick up the gondolas on the foreground track after heading to the CSX interchange. No cars were dropped for them (as per the CSX crew passing by), so all that was needed was to head to the scrap yard located a few miles down the branch.
I am unaware as to what the freight platform and building is currently used for, but of course the doors had locks on them.
