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!
The island of Island Pond here is getting eroded away, and this fallen tree was once on solid ground. It makes a nice background for the fishing egret while it lasts.

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.

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.

Edited in Photoshop (reduce luminance & color noise, sharpen), Pixelmator (cleaned up some paint drips on the bear), Snapseed (perspective, crop, color details, frame), and Photos (lighting).
Smoothened quite a bit for a more glossy look.
Seems like a fun picture to look at! :-)
Near Channing, Michigan at sundown this Milwaukee Road freight is struggling with tonnage and worn out loco's back in November of 1978.
When visiting the amazing Aros art gallery recently in the centre of Aarhus, Denmark's second largest city, I was transfixed by a resident artist creating an impressive new art work in the moment. I was not the only one captivated by this. I think the couple in the 'front row' had been there for a while also enjoying the experience. I noticed they both wore glasses. I was waiting for the split second where you could follow both their sight with the direction of their glasses firmly at the artist. And it happened. A special moment.
