Gemeint ist die Breitspurseite des Bahnhofes Siemianówka. Zwischen dem ersten Bild des Tages und diesem hier gab es ein gutes Frühstück im Haus am Waldesrand. Mit dem Fotografieren mussten wir uns jedoch beeilen, denn für diese Einstellung hier darf der Zoll nicht auf der Lok sein. Sonst gibt es Ärger, den niemand braucht. Also husch, husch und frisch ans Werk, die Autos der Zöllner waren bereits an den Regelspurgleisen geparkt worden. Zu sehen sind 2M62-0987 und rechts die DLA / Aspect TEM2-086.

 

Inzwischen ist der Bahnhof komplett umgebaut, einmal durchsaniert und mit reichlich Zinkmasten versehen worden.

A very talented Artist, Orlando Gascoigne, on my "I follow list" got his own Sim. It's a really beautiful Fantasy Woodland and i took the chance to take a little picture there. i stuck to the wood area for this Visit (which is giant, and so pretty). I set up some more flowers and such, for the pictures. I hope that was ok for me to do so~♥ (i cleaned them up oc.)I really, really enjoyed my stay!

This weekend has been a weekend of second chances. We were planning to go to the beach for the final weekend of summer, but I unfortunately got very sick which appeared to put quite a bit of a damper in our plans. Yesterday afternoon, Alicia and I prayed for wisdom on whether or not we should go especially since I had been and still was sick. We believed that it was a yes, so we packed up our rental and made simple sleeping accommodations in the back and we headed on our way. Another means of grace on this trip was our sweet brother and sister in Christ gifted us with door dash money since they knew we had been going through a lot. This definitely came in hand in regard to providing food during our trip which was extremely helpful. After going to the beach that night, we drove up to Tettegouche where we camped out for the night. We both woke up early (4:00 a.m.) and unfortunately Alicia ended up getting sick from me. We decided to head home earlier than expected and left before sunrise so that we could both get some rest. As we were heading back down, the sky lit up in a full array of colors and to be quite honest, I was scrambling to try and find if there was a quick place I could stop to snag a quick photo. Nothing was opening up in the right position until I got to Split Rock Lighthouse State Park where I quickly drove down to the beach and sprinted to the beach from the car. Thankfully, this sunrise lasted quite a bit longer than average and I was still able to capture the beauty that remained of it.

 

There were a couple of very important things that I was convicted on this morning. (1). It was way more important to take care of my wife than to see the sunrise no matter how beautiful it was. So often, I can become quite selfish around sunrise as I have my own plans of where I want to go and what I want to shoot, often not realizing that in that moment that I can end up neglecting the needs of others. (2). Even if I didn't get a picture of the sunrise, I still got to see it. I still witnessed the glory of God in His creation whether I got a picture of it or not. If getting the perfect shot is the end goal for me, I have missed the whole purpose. It is to marvel in awe at the wonders of God that lead us to worship Him that should have a far greater purpose than to merely just take pictures of a place. (3). God is so gracious to me and it is all so undeserved! This past few weeks have been really hard for me as I have felt very burnt out and angry. The last thing that I deserved was grace. God gives us so many undeserved second chances. I am amazed at the kindness and radical mercy of God!

Second Pride , here we come! lets go! :D

Today's forecast was rain but popped out anyway. It was very windy with occasional sun. Didn't get any film shots as conditions were moving too quickly

That relocated headlight lets you know the leader on Norfolk Southern's train 290 wasn't always a thoroughbred. NS 3553 was built in 1979 for the Burlington Northern; BNSF sold it as surplus at the turn of the Century. Helm Financial had it in leasing service until 2013 when Norfolk Southern bought it and others to add to their fleet.

Available at mainstore and marketplace.

Pretty much at the head of the Swale

This was one of the locations that I truly wanted to see, if I won a permit to visit the Wave. My only regret is that I didn't wait until sunset to get the setting golden hour light. However, as you can see though this picture there are some spectacular lines. To learn about this image visit my website to read the expose post article.

Popped into the Dales this afternoon - some cracking light. Lots of Tourists, what with roads closed around Reeth

Textile factory N. J. Menko cotton warehouse (Design (1923): A.G. Beltman) survived the May 13 2000 fireworks disaster.

In 2008 it was restored ( Erik Knippers, Architectenforum Amsterdam) and converted into apartments, shops and a school.

Second life photography waiting by the window

Second life, Pitcairn

After owning this camera for over a year, I finally began to figure out how to use the feature I bought it for, what Nikon calls focus shift shooting. (It enables the camera to automatically take a number of images, each focused slightly further from the camera, so they can be stacked - here in HeliconFocus software - with the result showing everything in focus.)

 

This image is the product of twenty images, and it will reward very close examination. I hope you enjoy this first of my focus stacking images half as much as I do, as I find it very exciting to begin to master an important new skill.

Looking for Short Eared Owls?

 

This beautiful Hen Harrier does a fantastic impression of one

 

Employing the same hunting techniques from a distance you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference

 

That is until it applies the 'after-burners' for a quick fly around

 

Second prize?

No... 'grade A' first prize in my eyes

I'm ready, I'm ready, I'm ready.. ♫

Read my interview here!

My wife has been wanting to come out with me to see some Owls. Our days off coincided today and we ventured out. At first we had no luck but a second try at one venue paid off and I spotted this Short-eared Owl on a post. I was just about to press the shutter when two motorbikes screamed past and spooked it but we sat for a while, hoping and it gave us a second chance!

Thank you so much for your views, faves and comments !

So, you might ask, as I asked myself, what is this picture about? Am I supposed to look at the graceful lines of the stem and leaves that occupy about half of the frame, or the crunchy details of the blossom? My answer is both; what's yours?

 

The result of a multi-image focus stack, this image should reward relatively close examination. It was taken on the top of my dining room table.

This is a piece of artwork that i wanted to shoot and process in my own style - I loved the general layout of the picture but wanted to change the composition, light and add a mono conversion to see what i could come up with.
