On what was a fairly dull evening it was a pleasant surprise for the sun to eventually find a break in the clouds, ending the day with a sliver of golden light out in the West. Admiring and photographing the setting sun alongside the River Don from Sheffields Norfolk Bridge Weir was too good to miss.
The shot of the sun shining through the viaduct was taken at 19:44, two minutes later the train arrived at which time the sun had dipped below the roadway. This image is therefore a two image blend, both taken handheld and thankfully the two shots were close enough to allow a successful merge.

What would you guess? Probably a decade ago as a bird was sitting up on those wires it dropped a Malus Lollipop Crabapple tree seed into the ditch at the side of the road. In her not so quiet solitude she grew to be the Queen of the road.
Maybe for people who in live in the more quieter parts of the world may not understand but for someone who lives in one of the most congested parts of North America the concept of walking into the middle a quiet road for minutes at a time and not worry about getting run over and taking in the blessed silence is a simple pleasure.
Society at present has only three tales to tell. The past, the present and the future, only to be presented as things hoped for!
One of London's most recognisable sights, familiar from dozens of movies. Its Neo-Gothic towers and sky-blue suspension struts add extraordinary elegance to what is a supremely functional structure. London was a thriving port in 1894 when it was built as a much-needed crossing point in the east, equipped with a then-revolutionary stream-driven bascule mechanism that could raise the roadway to make way for oncoming ships in just three minutes!
But you have to take all of those things, you have to take into consideration the paths, the roadways, how much cloud cover there is, how much foliage cover there is, whether there are streams, all of that comes into play.

An aerial view of a hillside with roadways in Abbotsford, BC., Canada, on a snowy day. The image appears two dimensional and does not reveal the steep hills, the homes and roadways are built on. The curving four lane road is following the contour of the hillside. The white trail in the lower half is Discovery Trail and the four lane roadway with yellow lines is Whatcom Road. A major power grid is faintly visible in the lower third of the landscape.
With so many things destroyed during the earthquake in the area, this is a new road and tunnel. Took a while, let's hope it works if they ever have another quake.
