Just like the mountains, he watches over me. And the best part not another soul around. He placed himself in all my pics... It is definitely all about Rooster. I think he has me trained because we hike everyday rain or shine or he starts to whine incessantly. lol

Exeter Cathedral, properly known as the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter in Exeter, is an Anglican cathedral, and the seat of the Bishop of Exeter, in the city of Exeter, Devon, in South West England. The present building was complete by about 1400, and has several notable features, including an early set of misericords, an astronomical clock and the longest uninterrupted vaulted ceiling in England.
Back when the tail end of trains were properly dealt with, a caboose brings up the back end of the previously posted 6 tunnel motor powered freight. This train has one of D&RGW's classic solid black cabooses, which was the original paint scheme for Grande cabooses. It had to be one of the most unique caboose paint jobs around, but I definitely liked the later two color scheme much better.
Being that we are already 5 weeks now of hanging out in Colorado, I'm thinking this is a nice tail end to our Grande adventure. The caboose is following some rather neat looking MoPac hoppers with stone loads, and heading to the MoPac would be a great destination, except it's one of the larger roads that I did not get to spend much time on. So who knows what comes next, we will just have to see what grabs me.
This properly dressed and appropriately tipsy guy was eager to celebrate St. Patricks Day and take part in all parts of the parade. And did not mind at all when security pushed him back to the sidelines
Now...... at last! Today we started with the bathroom. How good it´ll be when it is ready.... we aiming for the weekend now. The shed was areal mess, so we had to clean that out first. Gardening tools..... empty boxes..... sandbags..... well, name whatever you like and I´m sure we have it somewhere here. It is quite simple, the shed. So we have to do everything properly from the base. Plumbing, moisture secured floors and walls, Floor heating...... well, you know what I mean!
It took a while, before we decided the details...... and after that we did our "kick of". It is more job than we thought in the beginning, of course. But It´ll be a blessing to have something modern, at this place....... To build this together is so fun and nice. I´m really hooked on a feeling, a feeling of joy and excitement!
I don´t think I have time and strength to write you, until the new facility are ready..... and then I will tell you how it went, and if we are satisfied with the result. Anyway, it can´t become worser than it is..... or at least, more primitive.
Have to stop now.... Stella calling..... bye!

Brighton Pier, Grade II* listed, 1899. Properly known as the Palace Pier, as featured in Brighton Rock, Quadrophenia and much more besides.
Shot for the 52 Weeks for Dogs Project: Last weeks challenge was dogs and chairs. Sampson is really not one for getting up on things but he was willing to get up onto a bench in Mark Burnham Park for this shot. Hope you are all having a super weekend.

While sitting out on my backyard patio trying to figure out how some Ninja Squirrels were getting into my bird feeders, I noticed some fluttering between branches near my small pond. As took a closer look I couldn't believe my eyes...WARBLERS!!!! Not quite sure why they paid a visit as I am in the middle of a large metropolitan city...but thankful they did... I only managed to get limited snaps with my camera as I wasn't properly prepared...and spent the next several days attempting to get some some decent shots with these uncooperative little guys...Hopefully Ill have more to come as Ive seen 10 different species so far...
...I think I caught "Warbler Fever"! :>)
Peterborough Cathedral, properly the Cathedral Church of St Peter, St Paul and St Andrew – also known as Saint Peter's Cathedral is the seat of the Anglican Bishop of Peterborough, dedicated to Saint Peter, Saint Paul and Saint Andrew, whose statues look down from the three high gables of the famous West Front. Although it was founded in the Anglo-Saxon period, its architecture is mainly Norman, following a rebuilding in the 12th century. With Durham and Ely cathedrals, it is one of the most important 12th-century buildings in England to have remained largely intact, despite extensions and restoration.
Peterborough Cathedral is known for its imposing Early English Gothic West Front (façade) which, with its three enormous arches, is without architectural precedent and with no direct successor. The appearance is slightly asymmetrical, as one of the two towers that rise from behind the façade was never completed (the tower on the right as one faces the building), but this is only visible from a distance.
This description incorporates text from the English Wikipedia.
Finally, the first properly edited photo from my film collection. I think it is a nice photo, not sure whether to have kept the colour in the clouds or turned everything a cool blue with the nice orange/yellow sea stacks.
When editing film for so long, you get to know the intricate details of the shot, and what people might be looking at if they had it on their wall. I like the rain cloud, not perfectly symmetrical, but lighting up the water pink, the rocks floating on the surface of the water, the dark lines through both sea stacks which must have been a sediment layer, and the little rock below the large sea stack that helps balance it.
This film is great... I have a 100inch panoramic photo I could print that size without resampling it. Film is amazing!
Neither Nori or Uthgerd had these issues prior to the new drapes. Now life is all about how to properly lie in the window.
Entrecasteaux is a village about 7km from here. We went there last week for a drive out and the imposing Château caught my attention. While looking for a bit of privacy (we were both 'caught short') we unintentionally ended up on this very quiet road which fortunately gave us a commanding view of the Château and its surrounds so it was out with the camera once I'd zipped up! :-))
The Château was originally built in the 11th century but rebuilt later in the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries. In 1974, after several decades of abandonment, the castle was restored by the British painter Hugh Ian Macgarvie-Munn who turned the Château into a museum. We're aiming to go and visit it properly in March when it reopens.

Right now my whole world spin around photography, but music was my first love. That first love that is never forgotten and that permeates you to the last cell of the body.
I am quite a spiritual person and therefore I think that things do not happen by chance.
Last Saturday afternoon I went out again to do Street Photography. It has been more than a month since due to circumstances I had not been able to go out and take pictures in Valencia's old town. This last outing was completely different. Wonderfully different.
I practice yoga and my teacher of this discipline, Juan, also runs a pub called "LA FLAMA" in the historic center very close to the Torres de Serranos. Music sessions are usually held there and a Jazz session was scheduled for yesterday Saturday. The session was canceled due to circumstances and instead of that take his place Julián Díaz, an unusual pianist.
It wasn't too late when I passed the pub door, so the pianist was doing rehearsals. My teacher kindly invited me to come in and take some photos while the pianist was playing…
The piano player put on his hat, sat down at the piano, and began to play the main theme from the movie INTERSTELLAR.
The ethereal light, the atmosphere at the corner of the local, the passion of the pianist in his interpretation of the theme, all the elements formed a magical moment in which the tears fulled up in my eyes making difficult to get focus properly with my camera since I always work with completely manual lenses.
With this humble work I want to deeply thank the great present that I received unexpectedly the day after my birthday; a gift in wich music and photography merged into a stunning and marvellous single feeling.
Thank you Juan. Thank you Julián.
A properly red train, without interruption, to end this series. The non-publicity Ge 4/4 II 625 is hauling its Scuol-Disentis train through the Ruinaulta at Versam-Safien, 07-07-2020.
J'aimerais pouvoir la ficeler aux branches pour avoir le temps de la photographier correctement, car à peine posée, elle repart, elles n'ont pas besoin de vitamines ces jolies mésanges.

I wish I could tie the branches to have time to photograph properly because just put it off again, they do not need these vitamins pretty tits.
Thank you for your kind comments dear Flickr's Friends.
We've yet to see a monarch, but I did spot this Red Milkweed Beetle (Tetraopes tetrophthalmus) on our milkweed flowers the other day in the front yard. The split eyes make it difficult to photograph, IMHO... This is probably the best shot I got.

The Milky Way will always be one of my favorite subjects. Spending time in the dark, playing with light, taking a moment to contemplate your place in the universe. My problem in the mountains is finding a place dark enough to properly capture it, and get colors out of it. I had been wanting to head to the coast and try it out on the Outer Banks of North Carolina. I couldn’t get to the island I wanted to get it from… but after I argued that I didn’t want to go up here, I was convinced to go to the top of 4x4 Road on the beach, after dark. I was shocked to find, that despite being surrounded by lit beach houses, it was more than dark enough to create this exposure. It was an excellent time, I had a blast creating this. As an additional note… I would like to apologies to everyone I ever made fun of because they were swarmed by midges…. I understand now, and I am so sorry.

With the new tunnel line due to open in Spring 2026, it was now or never to try to do the Koper ramp. I had only spent one day on this beautiful railway before and had very bad luck so I decided to set aside 4 days to properly cover the ramp. The first day was wildly successful with non stop action and the majority of trains either pushed or pulled by 363 Class Brigittes. After a 2 hour drive from Zagreb, I arrived just in time to capture a pair of 363s howling up the 2.5% grade, with 363 015 pushing a heavy string of hoppers.This angle at Hrastovlje was high on my list as it really shows the gradient, so was great to get it within 30 minutes of arriving!

(Escalante Desert, Utah)
The problem with long days not quite properly planned is getting camp settled before dark, which tonight coincided with sundown. Eating in the dark is fine, but tent sites are better surveyed with daylight left. Accomplished, but food still on hold, I wander a ways out into the desert to enjoy the early evening. At this moment, nothing is willing to let go. In the distance the Straight Cliffs still get the prismatic bend of sunset, as do the scattered forms above, begging me to be quick before they turn to gray. The pinions closer in are gathering dusk while sand, rock and prairie grass still bake off accumulated energy. I think the last of the light must be carried on a wind that almost always rises with sunset, as if it’s all too much for a disappearing sun to take with its final wink. There are all kinds of canyons, slots, arches, slick rock domes and bowls, and artwork in the Escalante, but most of it is like this. A vastness that I never tire of letting my eyes follow, walking visually between sage and juniper, down through draws imagining how they curve around to the next bench, stopping to linger at random hoodoos with a thought to discover what else is hiding there. It’s a landscape that tilts crazily, sedimentary epochs uplifted buckled and seemingly sunk on end sometime back when continents crashed. Twice a day we participate in a balance between the light and the darkness, an evening of the day’s luminary extremes. I can close my eyes and pour the day’s decisions and exertions onto an imaginary scale against the weight of thoughts the night will hold. I most often realize I wasn’t paying attention, and the moment takes me by surprise, a leveling bubble tipping towards time. And I play the game of evening it out...a fool’s errand.
A closer look at this bull. The antlers on the right side doesn't seem to have developed properly. I wonder if the fire had something to do with it, lack of nutrition perhaps?

Hopefully, that back entrance is properly sealed to prevent flooding during higher water levels in the spring.

Not been out properly for months , but had a great day in Rowlands Woods East Sussex . Thanks to Sandra & Kevin .
If i had studied my Shakespeare more properly, i would know if the following quote is really from one of his plays...
"The course of true love never did run smooth."
But it really is the truth, i guess... and wouldn't it be boring if everything always went smooth?
kisses you lovingly
The next time i love, i will do it properly. I still believe in the myth of our superspectacular gene. I tuck the roads away. I grab the forests by the handful and put them under my arms. I ask the ocean to get smaller, just the size of my dress - it complies. I bundle the sky in my eyes and don’t mind if the clouds are raining on my cheeks. The only things i have to argue with are the mountains. It is just a temporary move from here to 10 years from now in our backyard. They make a smoke of peace. And while i shrink the space between us, my heart fights its own tide, swells into something more than i thought could ever be. Like this, i walk the inches toward your house. Like this, the earth gathers under my feet. Like this, the clouds and trees and oceans hold their breath as i knock at your door, i miss you so much. Even if you peel yourself off of me as if you’re my own skin but don’t want the job, i love you. And never will i stop.
No Clear Mind - A New Sun
26th of February 2017 - Annular Solar Eclipse
With the inbound train properly blocked, the first move upon arriving at L'Anse was to take these three empties off the rear and run them back up the hill to Bovine. It's been years since I've watched them switch the wood yard and at that time they did it on the way out of town as their last move. Doing it as a separate move worked pretty slick, they even placed the FRED on the rear for this short move. Even better, the morning light was still good for recording the scene. September 13, 2022.
This little fly was actually in the lid of a collecting jar during a invertebrate survey on Saturday. Its a tiny little thing and it was briefly examined then released. I think it is one of the Sciapus flies but it needs to be properly identified, as it may be a new recording here it seems.
A place for the soul to go for contemplation and rejuvenation...Distressed Jewel is in here making the picture properly in mood...
In the North of Iceland, we of course also visited the famous Goðafoss, although the weather was not great. When we arrived, we parked at the “wrong” side, from which one has a more lateral view onto the waterfall, but we stayed there for quite a while trying to find some hopefully more unique compositions. However, it started to rain more heavily, and even though I really wanted to take some more images from that side, at some point I decided to pack up. Before I turned my camera off, I wanted to quickly check whether I had gotten at least a few good images, but the camera was frozen, no matter which button I pressed. I then though that a restart might fix everything, but the camera then did not turn back on again. At this point, I got a little nervous since I had just bought my Sony A7IV right before this trip and there aren’t many camera stores in Iceland where one could get it fixed or replaced.
Back in the camper van, we took our time drying off a bit, ate lunch and took a short nap after which it had almost stopped raining. Moreover, my camera was fortunately back to life working properly. So we got to the other side and finally photographed the more famous view onto this beautiful waterfall. Again, by the time we were fully set up, it started raining, but not as hard as before and so I continued refining my composition and took lots of long exposures while trying to somehow keep the filters clean of water droplets. Although I would have really loved to photograph this location at sunrise or sunset, I’m really happy how this turned out since I really like the texture and streaks in the water as well as the overall mood and atmosphere in this image. I hope you like it too!
PS: According to legend, around the year 1000 AD, after the adoption of Christianity as the state religion, the then law speaker threw the last pagan images of the gods into Godafoss and hence the title.
So, is Flickr working properly again yet...?
Another throwback photo - this time to last August and some patchy cloud and sunshine leading to some lovely light over Blea Tarn and surrounding fells.

Everyone knows to properly take care of your unicorn you must feed it snacks between every 2hour period.
Lack of snacks will render the unicorn immobile and unwilling to provide magical rainbow farts which will cause a lack of rainbow methane in the atmosphere. Crops will die and people will starve.
Be sure to feed your unicorn, murderer!
