I was due for another one of these. :-)

Made a random turn onto a nearby county road the other day, one I have driven numerous times over the years. Only difference this time was I just happened to be traveling opposite my normal direction. Halfway up a hill I came upon this stunning scene. At first I wondered how I could have missed it after so many passages. After stopping to check it out, I soon noticed that it was all but invisible for a westbound motorist (my normal direction of travel on this road). The dramatic sightline only opened up in the eastbound lane.

 

Thought this was a wonderful metaphor for life. I tend adopt a singular view of things over time. This happens all the time in driving. I often see things as I expect to find them rather than how they truly appear. The human brain has a remarkable tendency to connect the dots in this way. Driving the road in the reverse direction forced my brain to reset and see the landscape from a new perspective.

 

Back in the moment, the dead tree was the personification of pure evil. It loomed over the old barn as if guarding it. Tons of weight, precariously balanced, and capable of dropping black shards of dead wood without notice, ready to impale the unsuspecting. Even the comforting softness of early spring could not ameliorate this scene.

Taken on the road to Perry Sandhills near Wentworth.

We gotta reverse all of it. Our politics. Our capitalism. Our all out assault on the environment.

Probabilmente questa era ancora l'ultima angolazione possibile che mi mancava del meraviglioso ponte di Grahovo ob Bači sulla Transalpina.

A dire il vero non è stata l'ultima che ho scattato, ma solo oggi arrivo a pubblicarla.

Typically photographers stand on the hill behind, however the odd morning train throws a spanner into the works.

 

Running 26.5 hours behind their original schedule, NR74 and NR75 navigate infamous curves at Yorkeys Crossing nearing Port Augusta on a one-off timed Ghan to Adelaide from Darwin as 4DA8.

 

Owing to a wash away near Katherine, trains were rescheduled approximately 1 day after their intended time.

SOO 1003 reverses at County J south of Elkhart Lake, WI.

This is the first photograph of the Reverse/Reverso series. It was while taking and processing this photograph that idea to create a series of photographs around the “reverse” theme started.

C-GIWD, a de Havilland Canada DHC-6-300 Twin Otter, rolling out on runway 33 at Toronto Buttonville Municipal Airport in Markham, Ontario. It was arriving from Trois-Rivieres, Quebec and Charlo, New Brunswick.

 

Serial number 721 first flew on October 27, 1980. It later operated in the United States, Kenya, Australia, Seychelles, South Africa, Algeria and Mexico before returning home to Canada. The 40-year-old looks magnificent.

This chap skated everywhere in reverse gear showing off his backward driving skills. Picture was taken on ‘Wheels Sunday’; the Sunday of the ‘Manchester Pride Week’.

Sometimes I like to turn upside down certain pictures, especially when some reflections are involved. Not sure why I do that, but it is all part of the fun.

Some tree flowers, shamelessly overprocessed.

Goldentail morays (Gymnothorax miliaris) are usually brown with tiny yellow spots, see here). Every once is a while you find one that is yellow with some brown to form a honeycomb. (Or more precisely, instead of small yellow spots, there are large yellow spots.)

 

This was a small one, maybe 15cm long in total. The trick is to get it to be out of its hiding hole enough to get the strobes to light the moray without hitting the background coral.

From a sunrise shoot at Chalky Beach, Swansea Heads, NSW, Australia.

I had hoped for some cloud cover, but as they say, "be careful what you wish for" because as it turned out there was no colour in the sunrise at all.

None the less, I hope you like these images from this location.

In this shot I tried to highlight the water flowing back.

Thanks for any views, comments or faves on these or any of my images.

Looks like they gave up on this project!

 

Much appreciation for all your views, faves, comments and invitations!

View On Black

Juvenile Brown Pelican slows its approach to a landing spot on Mud Lake in morning fog.

Cliffs of Leura on the Grand Clifftop Walk. We did the walk west to east this time, so the light was different and the views looked fresh.

Another one taken yesterday, took this from exactly the same spot as the shot before it, just turned the tripod/camera rougly 180°, hence the title (couldn´t think of a better one). Actually took this before "Energy" but who cares :)

 

This is lake Þingvallavatn you see in the foreground, not 100% sure on what those lights are that you see there by the water, probably summer cottages.

Black-tailed Godwit (Limosa limosa) landing.

1107 and 1106 round the sweeping bends at Sodwalls, with a 12 hour late running 9865 empty ore train, bound for Blayney to load.

 

Climbing the Blue Mountains near Bell, 1108 suffered a collapsed axel, causing the train to be stopped and requiring immediate repairs. The bearings were subsequently held up with blocks of wood and the train was moved at 5km/h until Lithgow, where the locomotive was finally detached from the lead and put into a siding.

 

The 1100 class typically only leads with the cab facing forward, however on this occasion, with no turning facilities available, the train continued on "long end leading" at a top speed of 50km/h to Blayney.
