The guy who is throwing stones is a labor in Bholaganj stone mining area. His duty is to collect stones from the boat in shortest possible time. It was very hypnotic to watch the way he was throwing stones, none of those were getting scattered. It was obvious that he was doing it for such a long period of time that his body adopted a rhythmic motion which generated consistent pattern of placing the stones in limited space. You can see I was sitting just infront of him without feeling any risk. If I had to do the job, I would have probably injured people nearby.

This isn't velvet, or a fine silky dress, or some strange sun storm, or a complicated fractal graph. This is simple sand, and it is absolutely unbelievable how the water and the wind are able to transform the sand. Day after day, year after year, age after age. Here, in a detail of the famous Antelope Canyon in Arizona, it is possible to see all the five elements gathered in a single image: the earth describes a wave, molded along the time by the wind and burned by the sun.
Possible female owing to the buff throat, although no obvious spots on the flanks? Whatever, always a treat to see up close - at one point this bird landed on the ground no more than a metre away from my 'hide' in the hedge. Spent a couple of minutes looking straight at me :]

Through The Screen Door..
As a photographer, I try to challenge myself to be as creative as possible. I try to see things from a different angle or through the lens of an unusual point of view. I find them much more interesting and engaging.
This shot is taken through my screen door of our Oak tree; which even in the middle of winter, still has all its leaves on and they are dried and burnt orange.
I captured this image looking up at the sky through the branches. the sky had an otherworldly glow about it and the screen mesh added an odd but pleasing texture to the whole image. what do you think let me know in the comments.
Thank you for visiting for marking my photo as a favourite and for the kind comments,

I didn't even know it was possible to have a locomotive be so clean. But here we are with a recently repainted, flagless ACe leading a manifest through Houston in 2022. Probably the cleanest locomotive I've ever seen.
And oh yeah, there's a nice-looking BNSF SD70MAC rebuild to the right too.

I always take my camera with me no matter what. The reason behind it is that I don't want to miss any possible picture I might see during the day. This time I was passing near one of those pianos in Canary wharf and I saw this one where every time a key was pressed, one of those figures moved. So I saw the picture :).
Thank you all for your appreciation.

Yeah yeah, I haven't died just yet. School and other such things can really hamper progress though. Anyways, with all that winding down, I want to unveil, yes, another new project, a long range bomber. That is landing gear, to scale, no less.

Hello,
I hope everyone had a great Christmas and has a great New Year. To everyone that wonders where I’ve been: I have had 3 strokes this fall and have been hospitalized 3 times. I haven’t been incapacitated but my coordination has worsened and I can’t walk properly. I don’t know if the symptoms will resolve or even if the strokes are totally finished. When I had the one, I thought it was over but it hit two more times. It’s the result of not eating properly (as you can see my posted food pics) and lots of work/life stress. I am on all my meds now and eating better, so I hope it works out.
If I am not back on again, I’d like to thank everyone who has been a friend/contact here. I’ve had a good 15 years on here. Hopefully, my symptoms will resolve by the time spring travel gets here and I can continue. If not, this will be my farewell but I will leave everything up.
Thanks and God bless.
Bill
Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams.
Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential.
Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do.

XRN017, XRN001 and GWU005 lead loaded coal train JU106 from the Wambo coal loader to PWCS Kooragang in the Port of Newcastle, seen at Branxton at 0820 on Saturday the 1st of July 2023.
There are three possible names you could call this business - four to the untrained eye/uninitiated - East Coast Rail, Magnetic Rail, One Rail Australia and Genesee & Wyoming Australia. This East Coast coal haulage business in the NSW Hunter Valley and Goonyella Coal System in Queensland was formerly part of the GWA business which became One Rail Australia in February 2020, most locomotives still carry the GWA branding. Out of 42 standard gauge locomotives, only four have ORA logos, though numerous wagons received ORA logos.
With Aurizon (now Australia's largest rail operator) signing an agreement to purchase the ORA business (for its large non-coal bulk haulage business in South Australia and the Northern Territory) in October 2021 they offered a concession to the ACCC to dispose of the East Coast coal haulage business as to not dilute competition in coal haulage in the above areas, as Aurizon are the largest coal haulers in those areas and the country as a whole. The ACCC was satisfied by this court-enforceable undertaking and gave approval for the sale on the 14th of July 2022, and the sale was completed on the 29th of July 2022. Aurizon retained ownership of the coal-haulage business as a subsidiary it referred to as 'East Coast Rail' until the 17th of February 2023 when it was sold to the newly established Magnetic Rail Group, again with ACCC approval.
The ORA/ECR/MRG business is the smallest of the three Hunter Valley coal operators (though SSR and QUBE have dabbled in that market at certain times - with SSR still having a sizeable Blue Mountains coal operation), the others being Pacific National and Aurizon, they operate out of several mostly Glencore owned coal mines as far as Ulan, west of Muswellbrook. They do not run north of Muswellbrook.
Wikipedia refers to the business as Magnetic Rail Group, the website still says One Rail Australia (1Rail) and is still maintained, the locos still sign GWA or ORA, and others still call it ECR. You will not find a logo for Magnetic Rail Group or ECR online - I get the feeling corporate branding is not high on their agenda.
The XRN class have been tossed around like a hot potato in their short 11-13 year history. First owned by Xtrata, then Glencore, then GWA/ORA, then Aurizon, and now MRG. The GWU class were ordered by GWA and were initially used in SA/NT before they purchased Glencore's coal haulage business in 2016, and all units (at the time being only 001-009, they now number up to 11 in MRG ownership) were transferred to the Hunter Valley.

Μπάλτα ντι στρίγκα
Ένας μέχρι πρό λίγων ετών άγνωστος για τους περισσοτέρους φυσικός θησαυρός της Ηπειρώτικης γής είναι οι εικονιζόμενοι καταρράκτες με το Βλάχικο όνομα Μπάλτα ντί στρίγκα ( η οβίρα=μικρή λίμνη της κραυγής) στο Ηλιοχώρι του κεντρικού Ζαγορίου.
Η ονομασία προέρχεται από έναν σχετικό μύθο για μιάν απελπισμένη ερωτικά κοπέλα η οποία εξ αιτίας του χωρισμού από τον καλό της αυτοκτόνησε στα νερά τους και από τότε ακούγονται οι κραυγές της.Στο να γίνει ο τόπος προσφάτως σχετικά,ευρύτερα γνωστός,αναμφιβόλως συνετέλεσε και η αναβάθμιση του μέχρι πρότινος δύσβατου μονοπατιού το οποίο οδηγούσε εκεί σε μια σύγχρονη και πλήρως εναρμονισμένη με το περιβάλλον ορεινή περιπατητική διαδρομή.
Το μονοπάτι διανοίχθηκε και σημάνθηκε άριστα σε,όλο το μήκος του,στρώθηκε επιμελώς με τα υλικά τα οποία βρίθουν στην περιοχή,πέτρα,χαλίκι και ξύλο με ξύλινα στηθαία όπου κρίθηκε απαραίτητο,δημιουργήθηκε χώρος προσωρινής στάσης για ανάπαυση με τρεχούμενο νερό,ακόμη και ένα εξαιρετικά καλαίσθητο ξύλινο γεφυράκιι χτίστηκε ώστε η πρόσβαση των πολλών πλέον καθημερινών επισκεπτών να γίνει όσο το δυνατόν πιο εύκολη γρήγορη και ασφαλής.
Η σύζυγος κι εγώ είχαμε την επιπλέον χαρά να μας καθοδηγήσει ο…αυτοδιορισθείς ξεναγός του χωριού ο εικονιζόμενος εκπληκτικός,καθαρόαιμος, Ελληνικός ποιμενικός ο οποίος ακούει στο όνομα….Νταβέλης :ο))) !!! προφανώς λόγω της γιγαντόσωμης διάπλασής του.
Μας….παρέλαβε από το πρώτο πλάτωμα του χωριού στην κορυφή ,μας…παρέδωσε στον προορισμό μας στα ριζά του βουνούκαι,αφού πρώτα πήρε και το αναζωογονητικό μπανάκι του στα παγωμένα νερά,αναχώρησε προς άγραν νέων….πελατών :ο))) !!!
Το (υπερ)θέαμα σου κόβει την ανάσα παρ’όλο που το επισκεφθήκαμε καλοκαίρι κατά την διάρκεια του οποίου η ροή των υδάτων δεν είναι τόσο εντυπωσιακή σε όγκο και δύναμη όπως τις άλλες εποχές-φθινόπωρο και χειμώνα κυρίως-διότι τα νερά προέρχονται αποκλειστικά από το λιώσιμο του χιονιού και είναι τόσο καθαρά ώστε μπορεί κανείς να πιεί άφοβα απ’αυτά!
Την ανάσα σου κόβει,όμως,κυριολεκτικά και η ανηφόρα της επιστροφής(καθώς τα περισσότερα από τα 1200 μέτρα της τα κάνεις σχεδόν….κάθετα προςτον ουρανό)ιδίως όταν είσαι φορτωμένος με φωτογραφικές «γκουμούτσες» σαν τις δικές μου και-κυρίως-με το…κοντέρ της ηλικίας να απέχει πλέον μόλις 4 γραμμές από τα 60!!!
Ευτυχώς περάσαμε με επιτυχία αυτό το λίγο βίαιο “τέστ κοπώσεως” και επιφυλασσόμεθα-πρώτα ο Θεός-για μιάν επόμενη σε προσφορότερη εποχή επίσκεψη.
Balta di striga
A until a few years unknown for most people natural treasure of Epirus earth are the released waterfalls with Vlachiko name Balta Di striga (the ovires = small lake scream) in Iliochori central Zagori.The name comes from a legend related to a desperate erotic girl which because of separation from her lover of suicide in their waters and then the screams heard.
To be the place recently regarding, widely known, undoubtedly contributed to the upgrading of previously inaccessible path that led there in a modern and fully harmonized with the environment ambulatory mountainous route.The path was drilled and labeled in excellent, full length, was covered thoroughly with the materials that abound in the area, stone, gravel and wood with wooden parapets where necessary, created a temporary staging area for rest with running water,even an extremely elegant wooden small bridge is built to access the many daily visitors become as easy fast and safe as possible.
My wife and I have the additional pleasure to guide us a depicted surprising, blooded, Greek shepherd who goes by the name ... .Ntavelis: o))) !!! apparently because of the giant physique.He took us the first plateau of the village at the top,... gave us our destination at the roots of the mountain and, after taking its refreshing banana into the icy waters,departed chasing... new clients : o))) !!!
The attraction is breathtaking although we visited summer during which the water flow is not as impressive in size and strength as the other seasons-autumn and winter-mainly because the waters come exclusively from melting snow and is so clean that you can drink without fear of them!
But breathtaking is, literally the acclivity of turn back too (as most of the 1200 meters of this acclivity is ... almostvertical to the sky), especially when you are laden with my heavy cameras -and mainly-by ... the speedometer of age to is now just 4 lines of 60 !!!
Luckily we passed successfully this little violent "stress-test" and we reserve first-God-for a next to a more appropriate time visit.

Makayla's breakfast of champions these days consists of Cheerios sprinkled with a generous portion of All Bran Buds (more generous if we want to encourage the potty training). Makayla is definitely making friends with fiber. William Shatner would be proud.
Heather corrected me - apparently I (not her) took this shot a few weeks ago... I *really* like it!

Well I posted about three photos then took them down. I guess my mind has been elsewhere tonight. Worried about our eldest son who is going through a hard time right now in custody battle for his kids. It looks like a loosing battle for him and although as a parent we wish that we could make things all right sometimes its just not possible.
So, I finally decided to post a photo of Lake Ontario here in Kingston, Ontario, Canada for you to see in black and white.
Since this photo taken on April 3rd the ice has disappeared into the deep of the Lake waiting to return next winter.
Have a super evening!

It's a bit cooler today, a relief for the cats although it probably won't last long. Fynn relaxed in the garden under the eyes of the stone cat behind him. Stone kitty is guarding the place where we buried Ramses almost two years ago and I often find Fynn in this corner of the garden. Ramses and Fynn were good buddies and I sometimes wonder if he is feeling the presence of his old friend there.
We were definitely feeling the blues this whole week. We spent a lot of time daydreaming and looking up next possible vacation spots.😊
Exclusively land crabs in Cuba and the Bahamas.
Millions of crabs migrate from the forests to the coast in March - July to mate, spawn their young and return to the forests.
The larvae develop in the sea.
Some roads are closed. If not possible, it costs many crab lives and possibly car tires.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ausschließlich Landkrabben auf Kuba und Bahamas.
Millionen Krabben wandern März - Juli aus Wäldern an die Küste um zu paaren, ihre Jungen zu laichen und zurück in die Wälder.
Die Larven entwickeln sich im Meer.
Teilweise Straßen werden gesperrt. Falls nicht möglich, kostet es viele Krabbenleben und ggf. Autoreifen..
There were these eyes among the crowds welcoming us while we were getting down the boat. I set the aperture at 2.8 to obtain the minimum depth of field and zoomed to have the face as close as possible.
I've been busy, shooting as many Toy shots as I can for my Polaroid show: Toys on Roids at the Soo Visual Art Center this November. If you're in the Minneapolis area, I hope you can make it and if not, there will be a companion book that will be on sale online the day after the show opens. We're getting the book printed locally and hopefully the prints will turn out as close to the originals as possible and be high quality for framing as art.
