An old photo I took during a hike at Little Kennesaw -- I liked the perspective of the wooden rails.

Road Trip! Went out and benched freight graffiti at the San Bernardino - Santa Fe Depot today. Weather was fine, air was filled with smoke from all of the California fires all around us. You couldn't see the mountains that are normally all around San Bernardino. Just this light grey haze.
This yard is very friendly to people who are there to take photos. I talked to security a few times over the course of like 5 hours. Obviously you aren't going to be allowed down on the tracks, but photos and video were fine. Just check YouTube for all of the other people's videos from here.
The platform is so close to the actual tracks I had issues. I had to back up far enough, almost on to the incoming MetroLink rails to even be able to get 45 deg. shot of the freight cars. Normally, if you've seen my work I like to show whole cars. I'll have to invest in a wider lens if I'm going to continue travelling out to the Santa Fe Depot for freight graffiti.
Met Pasadena Sub Colin out there and he was actually filming. I only shoot photos, but if you want to see some great video check out his channel, and subscribe. He's all over SoCal filming trains. www.youtube.com/channel/UC5ALSPWMjJdBDdnVD0inmgQ
Santa Fe Depot: Shade, Benches, Security guards, and no rattle snakes. All of the things I DON'T have when I go hiking out into the desert to photograph freight graffiti. But,.... I still love the solitude of being out in the desert all by myself.

Ten months ago, typhoon Haiyan hit the Philippines.
What was left behind was a wounded country with cities such as Tacloban, completely destroyed.
The government received help from many countries and international NGOs, but the reconstruction plan is far from being completed.
The core of this movie is the story of a group of children who relocated to Calabanga after the disaster, and the delivery of their letters to their families in Tacloban.
From Manila to Calabanga, through Legazpi and Tacloban, this documentary highlights the slow and painful process of both physical and emotional reconstruction after the strongest typhoon ever recorded, hit the Philippines.

I recycled some of the original rails, the inner ones were still more or less good. The ugly plastic cover is now no longer an eyesore.

Got out today, 10-09-2021 at about 9:30AM.. Hiked out to one of my spots, and then hiked out to a few spots I've never been out to before. There's so many cool areas around here. I need to find a spot where all four rails come together. As it is now, there's two busy rails, one kinda busy and another that many one or two freight roll by during the time I'm there. Two tracks together, one about a 1/4 mile away, and another about 1/2 mile away. I can't just be running between all of them. I'm too old and slow. Caught some wall graff I hadn't seen before, and also hit up a bunch of my usual spots, and saw all the changes that had taken place since the last time I'd been out there. Reminder: Pick up your fucking cans/trash. Keep throwin' your shit out there and they'll start crackin' down! It's a beautiful area. Let's keep it that way.
After straightening and fixing photos from the 9th, it's already 10-21, and I'm doubting I'll be able to get out again before the end of the month. Is this what happens when you're back to work. Benching once a month? This sucks.
As always, thanks to the writers! Stay safe out there!!

Sommige stations hebben het, andere hebben het niet. Drei Annen Hohne heeft het absoluut. Zelfs op de rustige momenten wil je hier rond blijven hangen. Een aankomst van een stoomtrein in de schemering is een bijzondere ervaring immers.
