Setting sun on the remaining trees discloses what the powers call progress. This is clearing for a road that borders a large park in the city of Wasilla, Alaska. The clearing cuts off a number of trails where I walked the dogs and was amazed that we had such a place in a densely populated area. Soon to be a paved road with traffic zooming by and new housing developments. The price for progress in a rapidly growing area. I guess we should enjoy what we have while we can as there is no going back. Sorry to rant and thanks for your visit!
Maybe wider by the minute . . . We knew when we rescued her that it was likely kittens were on the way. Holly is thriving and very happy to be safe here with us! We love her and can manage whatever comes! ❤️
Please help others spay/neuter and assist the cat population from despair.
This art piece quite surprised and amused me after I was able to process the whole image in my head!!!! I couldn’t find the description for it, but I think it describes the human nature and its consequences very very nicely!!
Enjoy your week friends, thank you for your visit :))

One of my absolute favorite things about he RF&P is the timelessness of some of the scenes. While the power may have changed over the years, many of the locations have not. Doswell, Virginia is one such place, where a real deal RF&P signal mast, for now, governs this stretch of railroad. Unfortunately, like most cool things on the railroad, time marches on. Today many of us in the Old Dominion received word that CSX crews brought in its replacement, which will forever change this scene. It's tough to accept the things you don't want to, and while we all know things change, it doesn't mean we always want them to.
While most railroads are on a cost cutting spree the Reading & Northern is doing just the opposite by upgrading track & signals, buying more motive power & above all hiring more dedicated people to move the freight. Case in point, a new siding & control point (Muller) is being installed near Hamburg which will connect with an existing siding & run all the way to Port Clinton.
Reavieling this now since I have some struggle with making the helmet and are very busy with studies so I don't have that much time to work on him a.t.m.
Snapshot of detail from a collage in progress (dust and all), belonging to the series "Oldemor Hund" (Great Grandmother Dog). The collage elements were cut from found images, then assembled and mounted (after this snapshot was taken), portrait format, on an A4-sized sheet of watercolour paper. Collage no. 3/2018.

Two old rusty steel soda cans with their external "Church Key" opener posed with their sleek noncorrosive aluminum replacement. No Church key needed! For the Crazy Tuesday Challenge, modern vs vintage.
Happy Tuesday!
Every advancement has its price tag. And nobody rides for free.

Medieval imagination, drawing I am doing to amuse myself, but I do get bored quickly and put it down in favour of a camera.
A mix of BNSF power and a Union Pacific Locomotive is seen here at Progress Rail in Memphis, TN., in the process of being scrapped
