I knew I needed to be on the south side of the bridge for the best light. I then searched around for an hour for a suitable foreground. I liked the lines of the roadway, the counter balance of the boat under the bridge. I'm very happy with the finished product.

The Light Space2Surface shuttle is a commonly used vehicle throughout the galaxy. When you feel the urge to swoop along the surface on some unfamiliar moon on your ZeroG-Board you need some kind of quick transportation to take you down there.

This is my entry in the Classic Space Era Spaceship competition on Eurobricks. It has foldable landing gear and the traveller can snap their board in the rear.

sunset for the 313s? I blame MAJ for starting this weeks unit photting fetish and my last shot of a productive winter afternoon around Littlehampton catches the last of the sun catching the bank as 209 embarks on another shuttle from Littlehampton

The shuttle toy from Burger King is pretty darned cool! Unlike the larger ships, it doesn't look particularly "super deformed" and it is very detailed, good enough I think to be used in a serious photostory. And the best part of it? The voice that says "Approaching drop zone!" is Captain Pike's technically making this a Captain Pike toy!I had been annoyed that he was snubbed by the BK toys -but no longer!
Despte it's cartoonish proportions, I enjoy the Enterprise toy too, it makes a cool "whoosh!" sound like the Enterprise did in the intro to the Original Series. If they had only put the sound producing electronics in the body of the ship, instead of the saucer section they probably could've given us a halfway accurate model of it. Oh well it's still quite fun! I also have the U.S.S. Kelvin - I need to get some pictures of it posted one of these days.
I imagine that in the future, most airports will look like this one, where you can just hop right on a space shuttle bound for the nearest planet or galaxy. Not really a space station, this is the Bangkok International Airport and is one of the coolest structures I've ever seen. Down each terminal wing are long corridors of curved glass that let in a ton of beautiful sunshine. Subtle touches are everywhere including full orchid gardens around nearly every corner. Truly awe inspiring! No wonder Thai people are always smiling :)
I just got back from my vacation to Thailand / Japan and had a wonderful time. I must have taken one bazillion photos (at least) that I've only just begun to go through. I really lucked out with the weather and every day was sunny. It was also very warm and humid which I wasn't all that prepared for... but I definitely got my dose of Vitamin D for the year! Anyway, expect a steady stream of posts over the coming months.
As for the shot, another 9 expsosure set in order to capture the full range of light information, taken hand-held (though I do need to credit the railing with the assist). The taxi driver drove like a man possessed to the airport, and since I got there early, it gave me some extra time to troll around the beautiful airport and as luck would have it, found that the gate next door was completely vacant. I quite like the empty colorful rows of seats. Anyway, definitely another one to add to my collection of funky architecture!
Looking forward to catching up on everyone's streams! Hope you all have a fantastic week!

Op zaterdag 15 januari ging ik met een paar vrienden op pad om treinen te spotten. We gingen in eerste instantie zonder plan op pad, maar toen we in de trein wat andere spotters ontmoetten ontstond het plan om naar Putten te gaan voor de Coevordenshuttle. Na een retourtje Apeldoorn om wat tijd te verdoen, werd de sprinter naar de Gelderlandse plaats genomen. Aldaar werd de containertrein opgewacht.
Toen het bijna aankomsttijd was, kwam Iwan aanlopen en na wat nagekeken te hebben, kon hij ons vertellen dat de trein vertraging had opgelopen. Ook zou men een half uur stil staan in Putten, zodat er genoeg tijd was om de trein op meerdere plekken te fotograferen. Na een tijdje gewacht te hebben kon de trein bij aankomst gefotografeerd worden, waarna we naar het wachtspoor liepen. Hier fotografeerden we de loc uitvoerig, en werden we ook zelf gefotografeerd. Voor de derde en laatste foto van deze trein liepen we het station op, waar ook nog een foto kon worden gemaakt van met de kruisende dolime, die met de 101002 reed.
Het is 14:34 als de 101001 langzaam vertrekt uit Putten.
The Barbours Cut container terminal in the Port of Houston sends traffic to the rest of the country via shuttle trains that run to UP and BNSF's primary Houston-area intermodal facilities.
Here is UP's shuttle train, MBCHO (which is symboled as a manifest train), rolling through Deer Park Jct on the south side of the Houston Ship Channel.
In another 20 miles or so, the train will arrive and make connections at UP's Houston Intermodal Terminal at Settegast Yard.
The track in the foreground leads to Frontier Logistics's large warehouse and small SIT yard. They're switching this morning, hence the blue flag placed on the lead.

I used to work for a company called Spar aero space. I got to work on parts of the Canada arm and dedicate this shot to that mission of the last shuttle flight.
On the day before the launch, I was ushered out a few football fields away from the shuttle. It was surreal being so close, even though I wanted to be closer...closer...closer.... but the 28-300 (See the Nikon 28-300 Review) was plenty lens enough to get in tight so you can see all the details of the shuttle and the launch facility skunkworks...
See all my NASA shots here...

With the setting sun in the distance, KCS 4171 rolls eastward through Houston's West End.
On the drawbar is a long string of empty hoppers returning to the Motiva refinery in Port Arthur for another load of petroleum coke. Pet coke is a byproduct of oil refining (essentially a solid carbon rock with some nasty stuff in it), often sold overseas to be burned for power production. In early 2024, CPKC started running these shuttle trains from Port Arthur to the port of Corpus Christi for export.

Thank you all who fave and comment on my photo'/video's,much appreciated.And thank you all for looking.
What an incredible moment we had today when the Shuttle flew over many landmarks in California. We were fortunate enough in Los Angeles for many fly overs and 2 of them happen to fly over our Campuses. This picture above is from the flyover downtown Los Angeles heading over Exposition Park where the Shuttle will call home in a few days. The picture below was taken by one of my students who is running an Instagram Contest for this event. One of our campuses is above the Getty Center so the view was great for the flyover. This event excited so many and a lot of pride was felt. Definitely a day to remember.
Concentrated on my camera session to the Sagrada Familia, appeared this curious scene with a plane and one of the cranes building the temple. I moved a few meters to have two objectives well aligned.
Part 1: In 2027, the Interplanetary Exploration Alliance began flying the space orbiter shuttle Indefatigable on routine missions to carry elements of the I.E.A. Vanguard to orbit for assembly in space.
Permanently laid up in its own display building, the Space Shuttle ‘Atlantis’ makes for an impressive sight at its display angle.
