Are you thinking of redoing your kitchen or bathroom. You can come to this display yard and pick out your pattern in granite. I assume they would have quartz and marble as well. I like the way these slabs are displayed. My picture only shows about a third of the field. It looks like there is a partially finished warehouse in the back. They also have a store on the main street of this town. If you had to pick one, which pattern would you choose?

 

Helpful hint: after building two of my own houses and now overseeing my daughter’s house build, I can tell you to use quartz over granite. Granite needs sealed, treated and constantly cleaned because it tends to smear. I’ve had quartz countertops for 13 years. They don’t need any treatments. Just wipe with a damp cloth and they look like new.

I seem to be doing less and less seascape shooting recently but maybe this is due to the summer light so this is an old one from the archives down at Seacliff beach but much further East than I normally shoot.

 

There was no colour in the skies but decided to keep some colour in the shot for the rocks.

 

The Bass Rock and St Baldreds Boat can be seen on the horizon

  

Something strange happened...

The Blue Unit Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus train crosses the trestle at Slab Fork with 40-50 people in various positions around the bridge getting their shots . This run from Charleston, WV to Uniondale, NY is the final run from show to show of the Ringling Brothers Circus Train.

I stepped back a little for a wider view from my previous post. It's hard to imagine a torrent of water rushing thru here.

A trio of blue Union Railroad EMD MP15s shove a loaded slab train up the ramp and out of the Edgar Tompson works as a thick snow covers the scene.

 

I have posted an earlier frame of this previously but felt that this angle was different enough to warrant its own post for New Year's. 2024 was filled with many highs and lows, but I am going into 2025 feeling very grateful for what I have. I hope everyone had a blessed holiday season and a happy New Year!

Slab City, Ca.

The poor man's carillon.

A dash to Canberra last year with our dog. Got to visit my cousin and Aunt, both of whom I hadn't seen in decades. Was a great short road trip.

slab city is a community of individualists, artists, loners, and seekers of profound truths. some love the desert as i do, as you can feel the presence of the creator of this and the cosmos. here, you are not inundated by the madness of civilized society.

COVID-19, part 2. DIY lighting, difused.

Quite a tricky photo if you want to make sure there are no reflections (I used a polarizer, but it doesn't do much, I had to get creative)

Hopefully not a cliche :)

Something a bit more moody in comparison with my previous uploads. Hard to believe they were all taken on the same day :-)

The Union Railroad's morning slab train, 076 is grinding up their double track mainline about to pass under Bettis Road and duck into the Dravosburg Tunnel just as the morning sun breaks over the hills. Four bought new MP15DCs, numbers 12, 21, and 11 lead the train heading from the Edgar Thompson Works to the Ervin Works all part of US Steels integrated Mon Valley Works of which their Union Railroad subsidiary is a key link.
