These locomotives are both CF7's, a model that was created by Santa Fe when they converted many of their streamlined locomotives, which weren't well suited for freight use, to the more utilitarian form that you see here.
2535 was built in September, 1949 as an EMD F7A; 2507 was built in March, 1953. Both were sold in the late 80's and ended up serving one of the grain facilities in Saginaw until they retired; both were scrapped here two months after this photo was taken.
If you're interested in learning more about these locomotives, Cary Poole has an excellent book, "CF7 Locomotives: From Cleburne to Everywhere," which is worth picking up for two reasons: one, it's an excellent book; two, Cary's a terrifically nice guy.
First crossdressed bondage time since Nov. 2007. Had a lot of fun . Planned this idea over the last week. Next time, a variation of this...
I have boated Lake Erie all my life but have never been to the islands in the winter. Pam and I took a our car on a ferry trip to South Bass Island yesterday. South Bass is part of the chain of islands that make up the Erie Islands. Eagles have been nesting on the islands since their comeback in the 1980's. It was great to see this eagle right in the center of the town of Put-in-Bay. With very little human activity this time of year this eagle probably felt comfortable roosting anywhere. So glad to squeeze a focus point between the branches to grab this shot.

Put a big stone wall up and suddenly everyone wants to get inside to see what it's all about - unless it's a prison of course.
Put out a water dispenser during the hot weather. This young Blue Tit became a daily visitor. Think he may be one of the youngsters from our nest box.
Barbie is so cute! I wish her outfit would be a little more realistic. It seems so out of plce with all the realistic outfits on the rest of the girls. Maybe some cute white pants instead of that skirt? Still like the dress though. She had some pretty bad box hair, but it was easy to fix.
so here is one of a few images from My Pictures on the ebm PC in the Office next to the HP Laptop!
The Flickr App does an OK search, but not just on your Photostream, you would need your own unique hashtag like roundaustraliawithspelio to get your shots... or sh*t as Flickr just called it while trying to sell you prints...
HELENA
Put together a new outfit for Helena. She's wearing a Clear-lan coat, random black pants, and Tris Divergent boots.
ALISON
Alison is slowly coming together. I wanted her to have her hand on her face so I took the left arm off her Disney princess body and put a modified Tris arm on her.
I want her to have her soccer mom outfit, with the long sleeved pink top and white vest. It looks like I'm going to have to make those pieces myself. Right now she's wearing a Top model headband/scarf, random blue sweat top, black leggings from Twilight Jane & Cheerleader sneakers.
COSIMA
Took Cosima's hair out and cut some of the super thin locks. Added new glasses.
As usual, she's wearing a Clear-Lan coat, daughter-who-sews stockings, and Pirates Angelica boots. She has maroon Clear-Lan dress on too, but its under the coat.
Arthur Ash Stadium, the citadel of the US Tennis through the UniSphere in New York City. The circle and the sphere are separated by a kilometre but fit in a single frame.
These two structures are exactly a kilometre apart and able to put them in a single shot with Canon-Tamaron combo (with a crop sensor that yields an effective 382mm, double of full sensor's).
You could see the painters are working a kilometre away for the Summer feast (US Open) at Arthur Ash Stadium.

I was thinking of my friend Kat while making this. Her granddaughter is in need of mega prayers. A baby of 5 mos. old, in hospital since born is now in Washington DC in hospital on a transplant list for liver and bowel. Such a wee soul to have to endure such a thing. She is a survivor ... she keeps kicking butt and coming through against all odds. Please send your strongest wishes for little Rebecca and that her family will find the strength that will see them through this ... thank you from my heart.
Update December 9th, Little Rebecca remains on the transplant waiting list BUT she will be flying home to her New Orleans hospital in Louisiana by this weekend, then as I understand it to her real home by Christmas because the doctors said she really needs some interaction with her home environment, something she has never had but with lots of rules though to keep her healthy for surgery. All that they have done for her in DC has made her improve a lot. The family is ecstatic ... and so am I. What an awesome Christmas present for them all eh? NOW ... do you see what the power of thought and positive vibes do?? I'm not kidding ... it's all about getting everyone thinking the same thing ... I have proof this works on other occasions so I want to say again, Thank YOU all for your prayers and well wishes!! They count and this little girl just keeps kicking ass against all odds. Bless your hearts. I forgot to mention that she was the only girl in a set of triplets. She has two brothers at home waiting to see her again .... they were preemies and all had health problems but the boys have been home for a couple of months now. The extra stresses of worry and travel have taxed the family to a great extent. This news is so refreshing for them ... finally something nice to look forward to. ... grateful just isn't enough ... thank you again.
Update June '09
Rebecca is still amazing doctors in her recovery by defying all of the odds she has faced. It's truly a miracle every time she rallies. There are still a few problems that will always be there but there is a possibility now that she will not have to undergo a liver transplant. She's been home for the most part since Christmas with a few bouts of hosptial stays but for the most part she is being allowed to experience being home with her loving family. I'm told she gives out smiles frequently. Not out of the woods but never the less, her time here is being well spent.
She and her two brothers are turning one year old on June 30th - Not bad for preemies of 31 weeks eh?
Thank you for your continued support for this little muffin ... the power of prayer or positive thinking ... hey it works especially on mass.
Well, due to the roof and archway of the moc completely collapsing a dozen times…I have given up. I put a lot of stress and money into this, but the way I look at it is these parts can be used for future builds. I would have loved to use Technic Rods underneath the roof as stabilizers but I obviously don't have enough time to order them. So even though this didn't work out, at least I won't have to use 2x4s ever again :D!
Anyway, I am buried to announce that The Capital will not be at BrickFair Alabama. I tried guys, I really did. I didn't really even like the way it was turning out. BUT my partner is nearly finished with his side. So even though there won't be an actual Capital there will be a road to the capital. I will reveal a shot of that when he's ready :)
So in conclusion, I will be displaying my Umbarans and Clones on his side of the moc. I will also be displaying the remainder of my figures (not the 501st Clones) in the same display case that I brought to BrickFair VA.
I will be there all four days and will be hanging around David's Stand and where ever my customs display will be set up.
Really sorry guys. -MGF
Thanks for bringing this into EXPLORE - while I was away... - and of course, out again! But it did put a smile on my face hearing about it!

This mosaic holds some of my faves - favorites by some of my most appreciated photographers.
I have already now realized that I have forgotten, resp. overlooked when uploading these two mosaics some of my very appreciated contacts… I hang my head in shame but am too tired to re-start. I shall make sure that I won't forget them the next time!
THANK YOU so much for making me a happy, addicted and slowly improving flickerite!
If you are NOT amongst them, don't feel bad - This mosaic only holds 36 pictures, my heart is MUCH bigger!

I took my Holgaroid to NYC and only got a few decent shots. I hate to see so many go to waste when my supply is limited. However, after 12 hours of agonizing travel back to Michigan City, IN the light was right and I was able to take some better ones.
This is Shawn and he lives in Michigan City. I had taken the train there from Chicago and while I was shooting photos I saw him walking by wearing this incredible faux fur coat and eating an ice cream cone. I asked if I could take his photo and he was really, really nice and I gave him one of the photos similar to this one. I told him he had to keep it and he described a scrapbook he had at home to put photos in. I have a feeling he would have liked to have stayed with us taking photos for a while.
I put my camera face up on the ground and jumped over it, if you're wondering :) I wish it wasn't cloudy though. I might try this again sometime when the sky is really blue. Yeah, that would be cool ;)
put this ramp together so she can get up & down on her own.
Instead she uses it as a new bed. I shake my head
Put out in pasture likely this year, in field north west of Kirkland Lake, Ontario Its a " Dust Eater special" "No Cab"
Put 'David' and 'Sculpture' together in a sentence and many Westerners immediately conjure up in their mind's eye Michelangelo's famous statue in Florence (1504). But there are many other 'Davids' as well, of course. The Old-Testament story of the young shepherd ptting himself against the giant Goliath with only a slingshot is a mighty tale indeed.
Michelangelo's famed David with his slingshot over his left shoulder is surely more than a mere stripling. Ivar Viktor Johnsson (1885-1970) chose a rather different perspective; just look at the huge sword in David's right hand.
Johnsson stood at the very forefront of neo-classicism in Sweden. Helped by the castings of the Näfveqvarn foundry, his sculptures became well-known throughout Europe. He made this 'David och Goliat' in 1921. and it was placed in the central town square of Helsingborg in 1923. Not to the amusement of the populace and even the cultural elite, this Strapping Lad: "Too, far too Nude; and just look, too, at that violence, the mighty sword and severed head! And the self-assurance of that David, prideful with his foot on that gory head. So Naked, too! No, not here in our ancient, hallowed square for everyone to see. Sets a bad example!"
So this marvelous example of Swedish and European neo-classicism was removed to the obscurity of a park (1923). The statue was finally replaced in Stortorget in 2009.
But more or less at the same time as its banishment from the centre of Helsingborg, a copy was cast to the commssion of Zurich, Switzerland. It was erected at Utoquai in 1925 and graces the Linden-lined banks of Lake Zurich. Here in this photo it stands in its full glory on a gloriously Sunny day.
PS The 'ladder' in back is, of course, the one that David used to climb up Giant Goliath to cut off his head...
