Replacing 60163 'Tornado', WCRC 37706 slows into Peterborough with 1Z52, returning the Steam Dreams Cathedrals Express back to London
Replaced after a few alterations.
Having spent as cold a bivouac as I can remember, a series of warming up exercises were necessary in order not to become totally ineffective at operating a camera. Star jumps, press ups, shadow boxing & other random rapid movements restored blood flow & saw off any pesky sheep intent on 'photo-bombing' Angle Tarn. Even the ravens were eyeing me suspiciously.

Please meet my new HDR machine gun, the Nikon D300, here with the Sigma 10-20mm. It fired over 250 shots (in burst of 7 auto-bracketed exposures) during 30 minutes! OK, I only used a total of 16 exposures for this Vertorama.
It's an incredible camera, there will be some learning curve before I can really enjoy its amazing features.
On the annoying part, my D300 was apparently born with a hardware defect: sometimes the data link between the body and the lens is lost, therefore the autofocus stops to work. It will be replaced this Monday.

English:
The aforementioned series was originally intended for pulling light freight trains. Now it is only used for shifting, if there is a shortage of other locomotives, it is also used to pull a lighter freight train. Quite often, however, it is used to pull a work train..We can meet it at almost all major railway stations. At first glance, it differs from its younger and of course also more powerful sister (series 643) mainly by a thinner yellow line horizontally across the entire locomotive (except over the cabin)
In 2019, they began remotorizing the locomotives. Those whose engines were replaced were repainted blue. Currently, this has been done on 642-190, 642-197 and 642-199.
German:
Die vorgenannte Baureihe war zunächst auch zum Ziehen leichter Güterzüge vorgesehen. Sie wird heute nur noch zum Fahren eingesetzt und wenn ein Mangel an anderen Lokomotiven besteht, wird sie immer noch zum Ziehen eines leichteren Güterzuges verwendet. Es wird häufig zum Ziehen eines Arbeitszuges verwendet. Es ist an fast allen größeren Bahnhöfen zu finden. Auf den ersten Blick unterscheidet sie sich von ihrer jüngeren und natürlich auch leistungsstärkeren Schwester (Baureihe 643) vor allem durch die dünnere gelbe Linie, die horizontal über die gesamte Lokomotive (außer über dem Führerstand) verläuft.
Im Jahr 2019 begann man mit der Remotorisierung der Lokomotiven. Diejenigen, deren Motoren ausgetauscht wurden, wurden blau neu lackiert. Derzeit wurde dies für 642-190, 642-197 und 642-199 implementiert.

1999 marks the third time in my life when I picked up the photography bug. Armed with a new Canon FTb to replace one lost in a fire, I was out photographing again.
Check out an album containing more of my photos shot in 1999, or photos from The City of Guelph, which was my inspiration at this time.

The first Bridgeton covered bridge was a double-span Burr Arch bridge built in 1868 by a crew led by J. J. Daniels. It was closed to traffic in 1967. It was built to replace two prior open wooden bridges that had fallen in. After its destruction by fire, it was replaced in 2006 by a reproduction.
First bridge
About 1823, Kockwood and Silliman built the first mill, in the location that would develop a bad reputation and often be referred to as "Sodom", on Big Raccoon Creek. Later, in an attempt to change the town's reputation, the town would become Bridgeton after the earlier bridge. The first mill was owned by Oniel and Wasson and later be bought by James Searing. From 1850 to 1860, James A. Rea would run the mill. In 1862, the mill would change hands to Ralph Sprague and burn down in 1869. James Rea would go on to rebuild the mill in 1871, and Joseph Cole would operate it. Daniel Webster bought it in 1882, and sold it to P.T. Winney in 1889. The mill would not change hands again until June 1914, when George Brake and Fred Mitchell purchased it. According to Mr. Brake, the south half of the dam was built in 1913, with the remaining half finished in 1916. The dam is constructed of concrete and is 225 ft (69 m) long and 9 ft (2.7 m) high.
The first bridge to be built was of open design with wood rails and piers. While crossing the first bridge Owen Wimmer and his family were dropped into the mill pond along with their wagon and team when the bridge fell in. J.H. Kerr and others were able to rescue them. A second bridge of similar construction was erected at the same site. This bridge fell in also just after J.H. Kerr had driven cattle across. The covered bridge was then built in 1868, at the same location, just above the mill dam, with the abutments attached to the dam structure.
Three people submitted bids in 1868, for the contract to build the bridge, these bids would include three different styles of bridges. One bid was from a Mr. Epperson using an Howe Plan for $16,000. Wheelock and McCoy submitted two plans, one was to use a Burr Plan for $17,400 and the second using a Smith Plan for $10,200. Ultimately the bid was awarded to J. J. Daniels and his Burr Plan for $10,200. The "Daniels Portals" were to be later squared off and, after the bridge's closing in 1967, to traffic, benches and steps were added at the portals.
The present mill has been converted to run on electric power. Robert Weis and the Weis Milling Company operated the mill until 1995 when it was purchased by Mike Roe. The current owner has restored the mill and produces over 20 different milled products.
The bridge was destroyed by arson on April 28, 2005. Jesse Payne was taken into custody near the Mansfield Covered Bridge a short time later. He is suspected of burning the Jeffries Ford Covered Bridge also and attempted arson of the Mansfield Covered Bridge. Due to his mental state, he is being detained at the Logansport State Hospital until he is found fit to stand trial.
Second bridge
The second Bridgeton covered bridge was built in 2006 by local citizens and the state of Indiana.

-[ K is for Knives, Utility ]-
Two styles of utility knives and the standardized blades they use.
The top one is a common retractable blade style, the exact model (Stanley 99E) as pictured in the Wikipedia page. The original patent (long since expired) for this particular model was applied for in 1961 and granted in 1963, to give an idea of how long the basic tool has been around. The black object to the left is a dispenser holding more blades than I will ever use for the foreseeable future.
The bottom one is a plastic-handled snap-off blade knife. using an 18mm (about ¾") eight-point segmented blade. The blade itself is based on a concept from Japan dating back to 1956. A smaller version of this knife style uses a 9mm (about ⅜") 13-point blade.
Replacing light seals by yourself is not a big deal. All you will need is some foam rubber (or felt), a blade cutter to cut the sealing materials in stripes; and a thin tool (small screwdriver, a steel pin...) to push the new materials in the grooves. Easy .
To remove the old sticky, crumbling old seals you might gonna need some time, isopropylic alcohol to soften the old seals glue. Ear sticks are very useful too. Cut the soft tips (in order to make them more pointed, so they will fit in the cameras groove. Thats pretty much it ; Good Luck !

Loch Ard Gorge Cemetery. The cemetery contains the graves of some of those killed in the ship wreck of the "Loch Ard" in June 1878. The ship, which was bound for Melbourne via Liverpool, struck rocks near the opening of a gorge, and only two out of 52 people on board survived the wreck. Only 4 bodies were recovered and they were buried here with cross spars from the wreckage used as markers until later replaced with headstones.

Off to the University of Illinois in Champaign/Urbana tomorrow for the State Science Olympiad competition. I'm the official chaperone for 30 High School and Jr High kids.......who da thunk it. When I was in High School I was the chaperone's nightmare. At least I'll be one step ahead of 'em, I hope........
Bottom line; I'll have more interesting photos this weekend!
Scotrail Inter7City set formed of 43143 & 43179 slow for the crossing into the bi-directional Up & Down platform at Kingussie on 4th July 2025 with 1T88 1450 Inverness to Glasgow Queen Street. When I was here last time I didn't get a shot of what, from a distance appears to be a bracketed gantry on the north side of the station - only when close did I see it was two separate signals!
Not sure how long the 25 short HST sets have to go in Scotland - rumour is they'll be phased out over the next year or two, no doubt replaced by some inferior riding Japanese or Spanish tat!

I was seriously late the game on this storm. But I was never out of the game. I had missed a few of the other tornados that afternoon in Northern Yuma County. Coming from south to north I had to position myself correctly. Chaser Convergence was also in full swing so there were not may open areas to choose from.
For best pics of a Tornado and to be safe about it a storm such as this was moving North by Northeast... strategically, you want to be to the south east, southwest for the best light... Behind the RFD (Rear Flank Downdraft) It's all about timing, and I honestly didn't think it would produce a tornado til it was well west of my location. That was going to be the wrong guess... Though when I went due north of Wray I had a good viewing point but not in the safest location as you see.
I got lucky this day as...In my opinion, I found a perfect view, looking due south southeast. I ended up on the northwest side of the rotation. Dangerous yes...but this will eventually give me one excellent view of this tornado and all her glory.
Staying as safe as I could I wouldn't bail till it was about a mile away then I would head north again to a safer / better viewing position.
*** Editor Notes ***
Greetings Everyone, I haven't posted many new pics since last chase season and the 2020 Severe Weather Season is upon us. Looking for our first set of storms in the coming weeks and I'll be streaming live and of course some of the best storm photography one could ask for.
2020 Update...I've been revamping how I do things. One of those things is to go back and correct how I did my post processing of images. Several Years of over Colorizing over Saturation Adding color... etc. Yes I'm guilty of doing so and I have been going back and replacing thousands of images in hundreds of sets over these past few months here on Flickr my Fine Arts America Site.
The May 7, 2016 Colorado Tornado Event was by far one of my favorite chase days to date. I was able to capture the full genesis of a tornado. From birth to death. It was a quest of mine to do this in a photography medium. Epic severe weather structure, like once in a lifetime structure to capture. But post processing was a nightmare. The images came out well ... Defined but over colored over saturated etc.
Instead of replacing the images this will be a whole new set with a few hundred new images that I didn't post on the original set back in 2016. I've thought about re-editing these images for a long time and they are finally done. No Altercations what so ever. No Added Light, Color, Contrast.
I've brought them directly from RAW. Simply the way I should have done it in the first place!

I often return to the places I visit to see how they've fared over the years. Not every place; I tend to gravitate to the darker ones, either by appearance or the energy exuded. I'm never entirely sure which, or even how much of this is my own conscious decision. As often happens I simply find myself standing in front of a place like this and wonder how it is I got here. It's frequently a case where I hadn't set out to come, yet here I am. And it's usually at the optimum time of day, or month, out year, or lighting condition, or whatever. My arrival at this lonely house coincided with autumn leaf drop. I love seeing a carpet of fallen leaves instead of green grass. Great visual texture not to mention the metaphorical subtext of death of summer. I had seen progress on restoration of this house in the interceding years since my prior visit. I imagined the house would now be inhabited and the cloak of darkness would have been replaced with lawn furniture, recycling bins, bird feeders, and all of the trappings that come with a house full of life an energy. Instead I was greeted with this film noir version, shadowy, dark and sinister. I wondered why the house never seemed to prosper. I thought about the families that lived here in the past. Imagined what it must be like for them, if still alive, too drive past here and see it this way. Couldn't help but wonder if living here affected them adversely. Certain houses seem like bad seeds. Have a couple in my own neighborhood. Houses that seem unhappy and families cycle through more quickly that others. It's just that way.

CNIC3008 and IC1001, new and old, face to face. It's 3008s first trip on the IC mainline since its official debut and it's brought out quite the crowd. The modern T4 GEVO and the 1995 SD70 are quite different, but they still share the same paintscheme. How long will the SD70s last, I wonder?
A407 slinks into the Champaign railyard, where 3008 will be pulled from the train and replaced by CN2176. A407 will work the yard for about an hour and a half before departing.
Facing one another, the design choices on 3008 compared to the 1001 are... interesting, to say the least.
Back to archive photos again, sigh. Another five photos from my archives this evening. I am adding the description that I wrote under a different image taken on the same outing.
"Coming across a Long-eared Owl in the wild is a huge thrill, as they are not often seen, but the next best thing is to see one in captivity at one of the wildlife rehabilitation centres. I think I have been lucky enough to see six or seven of them in the wild. This one lives at the Alberta Bird of Prey Centre in Coaldale, southern Alberta, and I think the lady said it was about five months old
"Long-eared Owls are lanky owls that often seem to wear a surprised expression thanks to long ear tufts that typically point straight up like exclamation marks. These nocturnal hunters roost in dense foliage, where their camouflage makes them hard to find, and forage over grasslands for small mammals. Long-eared Owls are nimble flyers, with hearing so acute they can snatch prey in complete darkness. In spring and summer, listen for their low, breathy hoots and strange barking calls in the night." From AllABoutBirds.

It had been a few years since my last visit to the Alberta Bird of Prey Centre - I've only been maybe three or four times - and I had been longing to go back. Much too far and all new driving territory for me to even think about driving there myself. However, six days ago, on 9 September 2016, that is exactly what I did. A friend had said she would come along, too, but she emailed me at 1:00 am that morning to say that she assumed the trip had been cancelled, as she hadn't heard back about the time to meet. In fact, I had sent two emails giving the time, so I don't know what happened there. Very unfortunate, as it would have been great to have had company on such a long drive, and I know she would have had fun with her camera.
I knew it would be a long day and further than I would normally drive - and in a brand new car that I have yet to learn to drive! It doesn't look or feel quite as new now, after travelling 481 km! Only got lost twice, one minor and the other major. Must have taken a wrong turn somewhere down south and I ended up in the city of Lethbridge, that I had very carefully planned to avoid. After driving for three and three-quarter hours, I finally arrived, to my huge relief.
Despite getting there later than I had hoped, I still had more than enough time to wander round the grounds and photograph the various raptors. Some were tethered out in a grassy area and others were in outdoor cages. Wonderful to get such a close look at the various majestic birds.
I took a slightly different way home via #845 (?), making absolutely sure that I didn't accidentally find myself in Lethbridge again and it wasn't too long before I found myself in the area that I had driven a few weeks ago, when I went SW of Vulcan to look for Common Nighthawks (without any luck).
Just so happy that I finally made myself do this drive. When I Googled the Centre's website, I had discovered that they were closing two days later for the winter. So, it was either a case of going the next day or not at all till next May onwards.
The very next day, 10 September 2016, I took my daughter on a long drive in Kananaskis. This was yet another place that I had longed to be able to drive for many years - and finally I did it! I had been lots of times with various friends, but this was the very first time I had ever driven myself. We had planned to do this a few weeks earlier, but then my car had major repairs that needed to be done. Instead, I knew I just couldn't put any more money into my 17-year-old car, and I ended up replacing it. So glad we went on this particular day, as it snowed the following day."

This a test shot I took with my new macro lens which arrived in the mail today. It's not supposed to replace my 90mm Tamron macro lens but I have fancied the idea of purchasing a macro lens with a longer focal length for quite a while. I now had the possibility to buy this one second hand at a good price and although I have only taken a few quick shots in the garden today, I'm quite pleased with my purchase. The new lens is a Tamron too, btw.
I have replaced the old version with this photo because I did not like the old composition. The processing is identical.

EA-37B are Gulfstream G550 business jet airframes modified with electronic warfare equipment by L3Harris and BAE Systems. The most distinctive feature are the large antenna arrays conformally mounted on either side of the fuselage; these are based on the radar arrays found on the G550 CAEW (Conformal Airborne Early Warning).[3] The aircraft has gone through multiple "Baseline" iterations throughout its development, with Baseline 4 being the latest. It incorporates BAE Systems' Small Adaptive Bank of Electronic Resources (SABER) technology.
While staying with family in Bath over Christmas I got in a day trip to Wells. This is the size of a small market town but with a large Cathedral in its centre making it a City. The Cathedral was built between 1175 and 1490, replacing an earlier church built on the same site in 705.. Each Cathedral is different in its attitude to Photographers and Wells is one of the friendly ones. Their Website said they welcomed Photography outside service times and the only restriction was on flash in one part of the building. No mention of Tripods so I ended up taking all my shots with a Tripod and nobody objected.
This is a view of the stairs to Wells Cathedral Chapter House. It has been done many times before and indeed is said to be the most photographed interior view of any Cathedral. The Chapter House was finished by 1306 and was the meeting place for Cathedral affairs. The stairs to it have thus been worn by many centuries of use. I tried something a little different from the usual by going for a very low POV and focusing on the steps. Many pictures of this view are done in mono but I wanted to keep the warmth through the Archway.
The picture was taken with a tripod with a Sony A700 with a Sigma 10-20 wide angle zoom at 10 mm. I took 3 shots for HDR processed in Photomatix using fusion Real Estate for a natural look. I copied the minus 2 image in as a new layer after reducing the exposure some more in RAW and used a layer mask to apply that only to bring down highlights. Further processing using Topaz Clarity for more detail. In Photoshop I straightened the drastically converging verticals using Transform-Skew and also Filter-Lens Correction- Custom- Vertical Perspective.

So - I decided to do a pack of banhammers for every need of the Administratum. This one is the first and less powerful, it only able to dematerialize someone temporarily - up to 3 days.
Name means a punishment in swedish.

I shot this picture during my workshop in Toronto. We had a bit of fun (okay, a TON of fun) throwing flour and baby powder all over the model. I only got 3 shots from it, as it should be given that I was teaching, but I was morning the fact that the shots were looking aaamazing and I wanted one. So later on I took what I had, which really was just to demo the scene, and I decided to look at it in a unique way. I decided to edit the picture to be drastically different from what it looked like in my camera and I came out with something that I'm proud of.
Model is Richelle Coomey.

With 1,830 metres (1.14 miles), the Mintard Ruhrtal Bridge is the longest steel road bridge in Germany. The bridge spans the Ruhr valley in a wide arc and connects the cities of Düsseldorf and Essen via the A 52 motorway. The bridge became sadly famous because of a high number of suicides. After an average of four suicides a year since its completion in 1966, the bridge railings were replaced by a fence several metres high in the 1980s.
