One of the things you got to give thought about in the highlands are the rivers .. usually out in the sticks there are no bridges and the catchments are large and flashy ... if you're caught unawares on the wrong side of one of these it's an awful long ways round usually on very rough terrain.

Quan et sembla que tot és gris, diria negre, quan et sents amb el cap cot s'obre una guspira, potser només un petit llumí que el fa percebre que hi ha o hi poden haver dies de sol, de lluminositat esplendorosa.
En no poder sortir, en no poder fer fotos. en no trobar a gent pels carrers fa que en tanquis en la teva clova i així passis els dies de manera més igual que mai. Vaja no sé si som dilluns o diumenge, tampoc és important.
Ahir vaig rebre un e-mail d'un amic d'aquest món fotogràfic que em va fer molt content, és la guspira que fa que ara sigui un petit moment una mica més optimista, per això la flor mira a munt, mira al cel, el dia de la foto lluminós i blau.
Saber d'un amic, recuperant-ne la comunicació m'ajuda a sentir-me una mica millor.

Saturday night cruising in Paprihaven, in a murky area outside the city proper, spooky happenings are afoot...*
🎵 Who you gonna call! 🎶
After hearing of strange sounds, a blood curdling scream, and a mysterious 'klonk!',* the Caped Crusaders convened at the eerie scene.** But, just as they were beginning their Batastic detective work, the Ghostbusters have arrived!
Stantz: It's Batman!
Robin: And ROBIN! Dangerous dial-ups, Batman, who did you call??
Batman: Not these people.
Venkman: Just as well, Batso, better step aside aside and let the professionals handle this.
Spengler: Just an initial survey, I'm detecting no paranormal activity across any spectrum.
BZZRRRRRRRMMMM!!
Zeddmore: Well, let's see if we can scare em out!
Batman: What's he doing?
Stantz: He's firing up one of our photon packs. It looks like he's going to fire it at the house.
Batman: Tell him not to do that.
Venkman: So, what's the deal here? A poltergeist heist? Did you trap our ghosts in some rip-off Bat-Ghost Trapper?
Batman: We have not seen ghosts, nor do we expect to.
Stantz: Zeddmore, hold on firing the plasma!!
Venkman: A skeptic, huh?
Batman: We had a report of possible violence associated with the owner of this house.
Stantz: Well, you have to admit, it looks more up our alley than yours.
Batman: All alleys are mine.
Spengler: Deeper scans still show nothing. This place is dead. And not in the way we like it.
Venkman: So, what's going on out here?
thooommm...
Stantz: Did you hear that?
Venkman: I think everyone heard that.
Batman: Something BIG is coming.
THOOOOOMMM...

Well after a frustrating couple of weeks including one outing ending in me being covered in mosquito bites with no decent photos to show for it, I think I needed this!
I decided just to drive down to my "go to" beach Milford on Sea with moody photos in mind but during the drive the sun came out while it was still raining so I was really hoping for a rainbow. This appeared just after I set up - sometimes you just need a bit of luck :)

... I am providing this candid capture taken in Bar Harbor, Maine as a Public Service Message showing the proper stance that must be utilized when taking a selfie. Stable stance and posture is a must ;)
snapped my first proper personal piece (and first proper selfie!) in a loooong time today, in honor of my upcoming trip to australia! if you aren't caught up on my facebook posts, i leave on monday for some exciting shoots as well as a workshop in sydney. i extended this work trip by a little over a week to have some fun and one of my fellow travelers along for the adventure is my mother. my mom has never been on a plane, never left the country, never even been to some of the standards in the US like new york, california, or even chicago. she's got some nerves, but i'm so proud of her for being incredibly brave right now and opening a whole new chapter in her life with this trip. also super happy that i get to be by her side through it all.
so this afternoon, i just wanted to take a photo that signifies leaving behind your comfort zone. sometimes i think it's important to just pack up and go - even if it means leaving behind something great - and comfortable - for a bit. really this one's for my momma, and every amazing discovery she has waiting for her in the near future.
i'll be in sydney for a week, and cairns for a week. get in touch if you're from nearby and you want to come to the workshop, need photos done, or simply want to meet up/show me your fave place! :P karrahbkobus@gmail.com.
stay updated on fb!
Nice to see a proper point and shoot camera in action and not a cell phone!

Ancoats, Manchester
A first proper outing with me ol’ mucker – Eddie ‘Rainman’ Coulson of 2021 and the chance to post something not from the last decade. We’ve both been dabbling in Etsy in recent months and decided to go and shoot some of Manchester’s historic landmarks with the view to printing some of them. I must confess I’ve never been to this part of town and initially made straight for Anita Street, which has an interesting history going back to the Industrial Revolution, but I’ll write about that in another posting. Sankey’s is further afield and quite a well-known landmark, but if you didn’t know where it was you could spend hours walking around this part of town and never spot it.
Luckily, Eddie knows the area well and pointed me in the right direction. The weather on Friday was glorious and sunny, but not a cloud in sight, so you’ll have to forgive me with this subtle replacement sky. So good to be out and about again and shooting some new material.
It has quite an history as a nightclub… here’s a condensed summary
Sankeys first opened in Manchester as "Sankeys Soap" in June 1994. It was so called due to its residence inside Beehive Mill, Ancoats, which once was used to manufacture soap. The basement of the mill was transformed into a club and live music venue by Andy Spiro and Rupert Campell. After nearly going bankrupt only six months after opening, the venue managed to keep thriving. However, in 1998, due to financial problems, Sankeys Soap closed its doors to the public.
In 2000, the club was revived by business partners David Vincent and Sacha Lord-Marchionne. This time the club was more successful than before, tackling the problems that had crippled its previous owners. In 2006, the club was forced to close once more, much to the dismay of clubbers. David Vincent announced that this time Sankeys Soap would be closed for good.
Later that summer, it was announced that the club was to re-open under the shorter name Sankeys. It would be under the direction of David Vincent who invited Andy Spiro to get involved once again. During its closure the club underwent a major refit involving a brand new LED lighting system and featured the "hatongue" who took over from the legendary "Mad Graham" after the PAR cans were removed. The main DJ booth was also replaced by a new circular box.
In 2009, owing to the success of the new club, 15 further changes were made to celebrate 15 years of the Sankeys dynasty. These included dynamic ceiling lighting in the Spektrum (the upstairs part of the club) as well as a beach constructed with 50 tonnes of Bahamas Sand and the introduction of a state-of-the-art barcoded entry system. In 2010, Sankeys was voted the number one club in the world in a DJ Mag reader poll.
Following the success of 2010, David Vincent announced plans to create "Seven Sankeys" of the World in the seven cities that inspired the original Sankeys.
The music policy at Sankeys was varied but focused on underground electronic music, mainly House & Techno. The club also hosted one-off nights from outside promoters.
Resident DJs over the years included Greg Vickers, Bushwacka!, Jozef K, Darius Syrossian, Ellesse, Ryan Croft, Adam Chappell, OD Muzique, Pete Zorba, and Luke Welsh.
On 11 April 2013, Sankeys announced they would be closing the doors again on 6 May 2013.
On 12 November 2013, Sankeys announced on their Ibiza Twitter feed that they would be re-opening Manchester in January 2014.
On 12 January 2017, Sankeys announced that they were permanently closing with immediate effect, after the building they occupied had been sold to be turned into apartments.

This year the Providence and Worcester Railroad continued to provide their passenger train and crew for the Blackstone Valley Tourism Council's extremely popular Polar Express trains with trains running and 3:30 and 6:30 PM Fri-Sun for a total of 42 sold out trips in 2024.
The train consist is deadheading south from Worcester to begin the final weekend of performances with B39-8E 3910 (GE blt. Dec. 1987 as LMX 8534) amidst a winter wonderland scene of the first significant snow of the year. They crossing in Blackstone River near MP 17.9 on the historic original Providence and Worcester mainline just north of the Rhode Island state line. This is the 10th of 14 crossings of the Blackstone along the 43 mile line when traveling south from Worcester to Providence.
As I've told you before in previous posts the P&W is my hometown road and it is inextricably linked to the river it follows both historically and physically. The Blackstone River courses 48 miles from its headwaters near Worcester (at the confluence of the Middle River and Mill Brook) to where it flows into the Seekonk River at the headwaters of Narragansett Bay. The river drains a watershed of 640 square miles and more importantly drops 450 feet in the 48 miles. It is that drop, that made this river a pivotal point in American History.
From ririvers.org: A series of steep drops along the length of the Blackstone River provided ideal conditions for the development of water powered industry. Samuel Slater arrived in America in 1790, with managerial experience and technical knowledge of textile manufacturing in England. With the assistance of local merchants and artisans, he helped establish the first successful water-powered textile mill in America. Slater Mill was established on the Blackstone River, in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. This achievement is credited with spawning the birth of America's industrial revolution. Development of the Slater textile mill catalyzed the development of water-driven technology throughout the length of the Blackstone River. By 1914 water-powered mills occupied all of the readily available dam sites in the Valley.
As the birthplace of industrial America, the need for transportation quickly arose in the valley, and between 1825 and 1828 the Blackstone Canal was constructed. The canal lasted only 20 years having been rendered obsolete by the opening of the Providence and Worcester Railroad in 1847. The railroad has proven to be a more durable method of transportation and 175 years after its opening here it is still serving the purpose for which it was built.

I didn't think Nebraska Central still had unpainted units after all these years, but indeed they do. Luckily I had the proper leader as the local on the Albion Branch heads east traveling back to Columbus.
This past holiday season the Providence and Worcester Railroad once again provided their passenger train and crew for the Blackstone Valley Tourism Council's extremely popular Polar Express trains with trains running and 3:30 and 6:30 PM Fri-Sun for a total of 42 sold out trips in 2024.
The train consist has just arrived from Worcester after deadheading south for the last time to begin the final weekend of performances. Bringing up the rear is PW 4007, a GE B40-8W blt. Apr. 1992 as Santa Fe 582, and one of three of the model on the roster acquired from BNSF by the then independent P&W in 2010. Above the train can be seen the historic depot built in 1882 by the original Providence and Worcester Railroad replacing one dating from the 1847 opening of the railroad. This view looks across aptly named Railroad Street at about MP 16.5 as measured from Providence Union Station.
The depot is contributing structure to the Woonsocket Main Street Historic District which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1991. From the NRHP nomination form:
Providence & Worcester Railroad Station 1882, John W. Ellis, architect: The original 1847 railroad depot burned and was replaced in 1882 with what was considered the most impressive depot on the P&W line. The new station is a rectangular, one-and-one-half-story, red brick Queen Anne building housing the main waiting room with a similarly designed baggage handling and service extension at the north end. The jerkin-head gable roofline is oriented parallel to the railroad tracks, and the building faces onto Depot Square with one end abutting Main Street.
Prominent features include a protective overhang integrated into the roof slope and supported on large, curved brackets, which runs around three sides of the main building and extension. The central entrances on both sides are located below a large cross gable with elaborate decorative brickwork and terra cotta ornamentation, stained-glass and ocular windows, and terra cotta finials. A square clock tower with a tall, pyramidal hip roof topped with a distinctive locomotive weathervane rises from the roof ridge between the gables. The narrow Main Street elevation has now-altered storefronts on the first floor and brickwork, stained-glass windows, and a large central oriel window on the upper floor. The east end of the Depot Square elevation is sheathed in modern vertical wood siding and has no openings, reflecting the fact that this was originally a party wall shared with the Edwards Block, a Second Empire building that was demolished in the 196Os. The former building site is neatly landscaped with terraces and evergreen and deciduous plants.
The P&W really was Rhode Island's own railroad. Chartered in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts in 1844 it opened for business on 43 miles between its namesake cities in 1847. Built along portions of the Blackstone Canal that was opened in 1828, the P&W replaced the waterway as the main artery of transportation in the historically significant Blackstone River Valley - the birthplace of the American Industrial Revolution.
The New Haven leased the P&W for 99 years in 1892 and that lease passed to the Penn Central in 1969. The PC intended to abandon the middle of the P&W and sever it as a through route when a group of dissident independent shareholders wrested control away from the giant carrier and began independent operations again. The P&W thrived on it's own for 43 years as a publicly traded company (I held a small equity position for many years) until being sold to Genessee & Wyoming in 2016. It's hard to see the P&W I loved and grew up with turn orange, but at least the rails remain and continue to thrive.
