scargill moor, the rich, fast-flowing eller beck at the confluence with east black sike, where the chocolate-coloured water of the sike is subducted under the churning beck. photographed at a slow shutter speed. the whole moor is a magical place; this is my attempt to abstract some of its magic. there is another image in the first comment box below. for more images from the water and shore series, click here

Lol SIKE y'all thought Kangar wasn't coming back. He's back and very different from before. The reason being is because this Kangar is from an alternate universe. I have a whole story in mind but I have yet to write anything, maybe I'll do that at some point. ALSO the staff design is from mocworld, definitely check out their MOCs!

I was siked when I saw FGR's group for the day was "In The Car", and knew this was the shot I wanted to get. Well, at a different time of day and in a different setting, but time constraints didn't cooperate. I claim newbie-itis for the poor quality of the photo but it will always be a special one to me. Not just because I got to play with my dad but because I got to play with him in this particular car. This is my 1965 MGB known as "The Frog" which my dad restored and gave to me upon graduation from high school. The name plate on the dashboard reads, "Made especially for Margaret". I was pretty rough on The Frog while in college (named so because I love frogs and my dad restored it to it's original British racing green), getting into a little fender bender, rusting out the rocker panels, and eventually after one year of marriage blowing the head. (Okay, that doesn't sound quite right, but still). My husband always knew what the car meant to me and refused to get rid of it, promising to one day restore it for a second time. So, everywhere we went...The Frog came along. Paul always found a way to store it..even when it meant parking his car outside the garage. So now, after almost 22 years of marriage, and seven moves, The Frog is in it's initial stages of re-restoration. Yay!!!

Sike!
With the BNSF doing some kind of staggered approach to removing the old ATSF Searchlights on the San Bernardino Subdivision (Replacements in position at Arlington and Mary Street) a scouting report at West Riverside was in order, and oddly enough all four signals are still here. Then as an added treat the BNSF sent out a nice Dash-9 leader on a Long Beach, California (Pacific Container Terminal) to Alliance, Texas Stack-train to split the EBCS at West Riverside, as the morning light was still ultra decent. Then again this was the only Eastbound to fill in for a morning shot, so a run back at the end of the month was necessitated to try again. When I went back twenty-five days later they were all still there, more fluster clucks of Eastbounds passing through to come.
