The Blautopf (German for Blue Pot) is a natural spring that serves as the source of the river Blau in the karst landscape on the Swabian Jura's southern edge, in Southern Germany. It is located in the city of Blaubeuren, approximately 16 km (9.9 mi) west of Ulm and it forms the drain for the Blau cave system and feeds the river Blau. Because of its high water pressure, the spring has developed a funnel-like shape, which at its deepest point has a depth of 21 metres (69 ft). The water's peculiarly blue color, varying in intensity due to weather and flow, and is the result of physical properties of the nanoscale limestone densely distributed in the water. The particles are so small that the so-called Rayleigh scattering of light takes place, preferentially scattering the blue color in the visible light.
In hidden a corner of one of the greenhouses at Longwood I saw this pot of columbines and ranunculus sitting so prettily in the waning sun.

It was a grey miserable day out photographing the canola fields nears Harden, NSW, so I've added a Gascoyne rainbow to add some more colour. Hopefully, this does turn into a pot of gold and is not ruined by all the recent bad weather.
A pair of former Milwaukee motors and a C:P Dual Flag lead 271 under stormy skies south of La Crescent, 10 years ago today. This train had broken in two a bit north of New Albin and got back on the move just in the nick of time. To this day, I've never had repeat experience with this kind of lighting.
At this point in time, the Marquette Sub was still a fairly quiet piece of railroad, with 270/271 the only pair of trains to regularly ply these rails. Although, on occasion CP would throw in an extra unit train. A decade later and this is now a vital link in the new CPKC network. Pretty amazing considering that the Milwaukee Road embargoed this route in the early 80's for 3-4 years.
I've been away for almost a month, and I'm still pretty busy at work, but I sure did miss you all!! I just had to post one, just to see if I remembered how :)
I hope you all have a great weekend, and I'll try to do a little catching up next week.
This shot is for my dear friend, Vesna, whose texture work and still life images have always delighted me! Check out her stream.....it Rocks!!
Sammy belongs to my friend, Les. Mk1 used to belong to his Mum, who also used to belong to me, but I gave him away as I was living with a violent partner, and was worried Sammy would get hurt or worse, then it was my turn to leave.
Mk2 seemed to be a stray that decided she was adopting Les. Sammy is a funny one, apparently where she is sitting, is her favourite spot in the garden, next to the plant pots. 😊🐱
My son Antonio requested I take the photo, he adores cats and unfortunately because he is so allergic to them, we can't have one.
Yesterday was a really warm day, so Vas'ka tried to find the cool place in the shadow on the steps in patio. Lilies of the valley
grow in the pot next to the stairs.
Thank you all for visits, faves and comments!
Leprechauns and that elusive pot of gold were nowhere to be found, but instead the elaborate spectrum of rays cast down from the heavens located the real prize in the form of BNSF 1099 dressed in BNSF's infant livery busting out of the torrential storm clouds dropping their deluge onto Mississippi River at Ferryville, WI. With the thunderstorm now behind them, U CKBSWE0 12T and crew have sights set on La Crosse, WI, but more difficulties lie ahead in their path as they will need to weave through a maze of dead trains and 30 miles of single track along with five others in the fleet in front of them on a heavily plugged up north end of the Aurora Subdivision. These empty hoppers came from the steel manufacturing powerhouse of Cleveland Cliffs at Burns Harbor, IN, and will be routed through the Canadian border via Sweetgrass, MT, where CP will take them the remainder of the journey to Teck Resources in British Columbia for another round of metallurgical coal.
