Honesty
.....the ONLY policy!!
Honesty (Lunaria) - in my garden and in my heart. With the latter, unlike the former, it doesn't just appear in spring, there are no stages, no tweaking, no compromises and no exceptions, it is a guiding Light, Take it or leave it.
In the times of inversion and great deceit in which we live, a world where lies are the accepted norm, from the very top down and throughout all media, then speaking the truth is considered a subversive act ..... or at least it soon will be.
It is an interesting contemplation that honesty and truth are not necessarily synonymous. Truth by definition is honest, but without honesty that which is true can be difficult to discern.
This flower also has lovely papery white seed pods that the sun shines through and illuminates in autumn.

A class 25 waits for the passenger train to pass before progressing east with a short set of coal hoppers.
In the late 19th century the Midland Railway challenged the orthodoxy of locomotive design with its small engine policy. Rather than building larger and larger engines, the Midland deliberately designed and built large numbers of small engines, mostly for freight work. The policy favoured simplicity and the 0-6-0 wheelbase.
Fast forward to the 1950s and the British Transport Commission's modernisation programme was clearly influenced by the Midland's small engine policy. While type 3 (1500hp-2000hp) and type 4 (2000hp-3000hp) locomotives were ordered, over 1,000 smaller locomotives were built, including the locomotives seen here.

I thought all doors were supposed to be closed before moving. Oh well. A freight train rolling over Alameda Creek in the Niles District of Fremont, California.

I was driving down the freeway, and this trucker forgot to close the door of his rig. I fathomed that a giant rhino would fall out any moment. It didn't, but it could.

This star-studded image from NASA's Hubble Space Telescope depicts globular cluster NGC 6717, which lies more than 20,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Sagittarius. Globular clusters are roughly spherical collections of stars tightly bound together by gravity.
The bright foreground stars at the center of the image reside between Earth and the cluster, and are distinguished by the crisscross diffraction spikes that form when their light interacts with the structures supporting Hubble’s secondary mirror.
The constellation Sagittarius is in the same area of the night sky as the center of the Milky Way, which is filled with light-absorbing gas and dust. This absorption of light – which astronomers call “extinction” – makes studying globular clusters near the galactic center challenging. To determine the properties of NGC 6717, astronomers relied on a combination of Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3 and the Advanced Camera for Surveys.

The student protests very nearly defeated the coalition less than six months into its rule. MPs voted by 323 to 302 to allow fees to rise to up to £9,000 a year. A coalition majority of 80 fell to 21.
Tens of thousands protested in London on Thursday, and thousands elsewhere. This is not the end, but the beginning of a new phase of revolt.
Students, their parents and many workers will feel a deeper anger now.
A cabinet of 18 millionaires has wrecked the future of millions of young people. It wants to move on to do the same for those who rely on Education Maintenance Allowance.
A policy based on lies, which the Lib Dems pledged not to introduce, was pushed through in the shadow of mounted police charging students.
The main streets outside parliament daubed with graffiti and littered with rocks tells their own story
The police complain that some students “were violent”. But it was the police who spent hours attacking wholly peaceful protesters.
The government “winning” a vote is not the end of the matter. The main protests over Margaret Thatcher’s poll tax in the 1980s took place after the law was passed—and our side won
I decided to visit the (sort of) local butterfly house (the Haga Butterfly House in Stockholm Sweden) in late March as the chance of finding invertebrates otherwise then is pretty slim.
They have a no flash policy there which led to me borrowing my brother's Canon 6D since it handles higher ISO better than my camera at the time.
The Peleides blue morpho (Morpho peleides) lives in South and Central America and the fantastic iredescent blue colour is achieved by millions of tiny reflective scales on the wings.

An interesting sight greeted me at Nahant Yard on Saturday, a pair of KCS Belles and a CP GP, all facing the proper direction. Now only if those nose doors were closed...

Seen on the Foxfield Railway's Dilhorne Park Station in deepest rural Staffordshire, England, UK. These wooden bodied 4 wheeled coaches are restored to replicate those of the North Staffordshire Railway of around 130 years ago. They have hard wooden seats and were only designed for short journeys. Two of the coaches have been lovingly recreated, one from use as a garden shed! A third is planned.

Oh no, the crew has the door open!! Oh well, probably just airing out the bathroom.
NS 8365, on train MYCAS, pulls south to CPI 147 where it'll begin its yard work before continuing south to the A&S. The sun had popped out for about 10 minutes, creating some neat lighting.
This partially collapsed building is now being demolished. It’s in the river north industrial district in Saint Louis, MO. USA
Two Central Maine & Quebec barns may have had more fans out chasing them than some steam excursions when they decided to make a rare appearance in the Windy City back on Father's Day this year. The SD40-2F barns led CSX train Q165 (Buffalo, NY to Schiller Park, IL, CP haulage stacks) into town from Montreal. A regular CP red GE toaster trailed them, followed by the CP 7023, The Air Force Unit fourth out.
Q165 is seen here slamming the diamonds at CP-Canal crossing CN's former GM&O/IC St. Louis line in Summit, Illinois on IHBRR's Franklin Park Subdivision. Q165 is CP train 143 (Montreal, QC to Schiller Park, IL, stacks) that CSX handles for CP on the U.S. side of the border.
This is the first and only time thus far I have attempted to shoot a moving train with the DSLR in my hands and the drone over my shoulder 150 ft. in the air simultaneously. It was quite the juggling act. You can check out the drone shot here:

"675 Paces - No.23." All the photos were taken within 675 paces of my house, which is in Rio Grande, New Jersey.
The Suomi NPP satellite's instrument known as VIIRS (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) detected hundreds of fires burning in eastern Africa on October 15, 2017. The fires are outlined in red. The location, widespread nature, and number of fires suggest that these fires were deliberately set to manage land. Places where traditional plots of open land is not available because the vegetation in the area is dense are the places where "slash and burn" agriculture is practiced most often. These regions include parts of Africa, northern South America, and Southeast Asia, where an abundance of grasslands and rainforests are found.
Farmers often use fire to return nutrients to the soil and to clear the ground of unwanted plants. While fire helps enhance crops and grasses for pasture, the fires also produce smoke that degrades air quality. In southern Africa, the agricultural burning season usually runs from June through September when the next growing season begins.

It's been a while since I posted any car pictures (September 2021). I've only been to three shows this year and two of them weren't that great. After 14 years of local car shows you see many of the same cars. So I try to find cars I haven't shot before when I can. I have shot this one before, a 34 Ford couple, but I liked the suicide doors being open. Shot at the KC Showdown Car Show at the Legends Field in Kansas City Kansas.
A photo assignment I did expressing how the present administration's policies effect trans individuals. This was the set up before the shoot of these doll parts or dolls in bottles.
