Thiruvananthapuram Central bound Thiruvananthapuram Rajdhani Express ripping through Sharavati A bridge powered by ERNAKULAM WDP-4D
This isn't a blog post, but it's how I'm handling my grief of JDF's passing. A small homage to the green ranger. Normally celebrity death's don't bother me but certain ones hit really hard, this one was one for me. RIP you beautiful legend you...
Dans chaque éclat de soleil, je ressens ton amour chaud comme un doux rayon." "Tes empreintes sur nos vies ne s'effaceront jamais, chaque jour étant une empreinte de toi." "À celle qui aimait sans réserve, qui nous manque sans fin."
In every burst of sunshine, I feel your warm love like a gentle ray." "Your imprints on our lives will never fade, each day being an imprint of you." "To the one who loved without reservation, who we miss without reservation. fin."
Ripping down the Exeter Subdivision from Clinton, Ontario toward the connection to the Strathroy Sub. at Hyde Park is a Canadian National plow extra. The pair of GP9's pushing Russell plow 55614 are just running "a little over" the timetable speed limit of this old branch line. What we had hoped for of getting a pile of images, yielded just this bail out for the grab shot while crossing this bridge, as it was all we could do just to keep alongside on the icy roads with this 60 mph battering ram - January 21, 1984.
Charlies Watts passed away 24th August 2021.
Drummer for The Rolling Stones. I have been listening to the Stones since , well most of my life. Today feels like the end of an era.
I saw them on TV performing this song in 1964 and fell in love with Mick Jagger aged 6. www.youtube.com/watch?v=gIKfN3CuFXA

Late yesterday afternoon our sweet Poppy girl entered Kitty Heaven. She was diagnosed with pancreatitis in early March of this year. She let us know yesterday that it was time to let her go. She will be missed by all of her family and her best friend (and sister) Jasmine. She would have been 16 years old in April.
This is yet another portrait from a session that I always intended to revisit. A spontaneous moment in a frozen, windswept cornfield with Katie. And one of the takeaway images was a quick grab shot with an iPhone camera. Absolutely no urgency or sense of time. Just a quick capture as she looked back at me. My mindset then was "we'll come right back here in day or a week and do it all over again". Surely more and even better photos would result. And I would look back at this as a mere practice run. But a week later the corn was harvested. And shortly thereafter it snowed. And the session just got pushed back until it was eventually forgotten. Now each passing day tugs me a bit further away from the moment I pressed the shutter on this photo. It's like getting dragged inexorably out to sea by a rip tide. I saw Katie the other day and her hair was styled in a multi-color mohawk. I just smiled as I realized the proverbial shoreline had finally slipped from view. Not that she didn't look stunning in a mohawk, it just would not have fit into the moment I had tried to create here. We'll do another session some day, of that I'm sure. But this moment in the barren cornfield is now firmly part of the past, and there is simply no going back.
This prairie appears to have been ripped like a sheet of green paper, revealing colorful Chinle formations underneath.
This is what I call the Morning Glory Chinle site with the blue and red patterns.
Loved by many, my dearest loyal friend, walking companion and photo model has passed away. I miss him so much already; he will stay forever in my heart
My dad texted me this afternoon, that Oedipoes was doing really badly. I knew from my visits his health declined rapidly. He had been on thyroid medication for two and a half years. And you could really see the disease and medication were taking their toll. My dad and step mom took Oedipoes to the vet and put him to sleep forever.
My dad called Oedipoes his little dog, and he surely did behave like that. He was always by my dad's side. Oedipoes waited at the garage door when you came home or he would greet you at the shore when you had been out on a boat trip. Oedipoes made sure the other three cats got used to the new home when they all moved house in January. We called him the mediator. Sometimes we called him The Nurse. When my dad broke his ankle a few years ago, Oedipoes stayed with him all the time he was in bed or on the couch, purring and snoozing. Oedipoes immediately clung to him when he and my step mom were in a grave car accident in April when they dropped me and big Human off at the airport. The orange kitty watched over him and stayed at his side again.
Now they had to tell him he did well and he was allowed to go. He just clung on and refused to give up on life. It was like all he wanted to do was to give, but he couldn't give anymore. We will miss him dearly.
During December, I am going to post a few RIP pictures of buildings that were demolished in 2018 and this one from late in 2017.
I had been planning to photograph this farmhouse in winter on a trip to Riding Mountain National Park but was shocked to find it gone. It was located a substantial distance from the road at the end of a large fenced field with a private property sign. I photographed it with long wildlife lenses from the road. I can only speculate that it might have been demolished because others were crossing the farmer's field to get close to it. The land on which it stood was not being cultivated, as you can see.
The house looks like it was very solidly built and could have stood as an iconic reminder of the past to be viewed by those who took the Highway 10 route into RMNP for many more years.

Non avete il diritto di distruggere la Terra e i suoi abitanti. Siete uomini piccoli piccoli, non siete Dio. Le future generazioni vi chiederanno conto dello scempio.

The stars above me and the moral law within me. (Kant)
You have no right to destroy the Earth and its inhabitants. You are little men, you are not God. Future generations will ask you to account for the massacre.
