BNSF 6329 leads the H-GALMEM1 21A as it leaves Old Monroe, MO. on the BNSF Hannibal Sub.
Wrong leader of course....
Train was symbolled as an H train and the rear half was actually freight. Not sure why the occasional GALMEM runs with stacks but its a nice change.
This 300x2s stacked image was lightened in Photoshop. Fire Skies are one of the best uses of this type of post-processing. In this equivalent 10 minute exposure a passing car looks like several cars as a result of these short two second interval,

The sea stacks of Reynisdrangar in Iceland. I took shelter in the cave entrance for this composition whilst the rain and wind soaked... everything.
An attempt at focus stacking an amaryllis...

Stack Rock Fort.
Dai the Drone was with me while I did some work down in West Wales. Took my lunch at the Sandy Haven Beach car park and Dai took a quick flight out to see the Fort just off the shore.
South Stack is famous as the location of one of Wales' most spectacular lighthouses, South Stack Lighthouse. It has a height of 41 metres (135 feet). It has a maximum area of 7 acres.
Until 1828 when an iron suspension bridge was built, the only means of crossing the deep water channel on to the island was in a basket which was suspended on a hemp cable. The suspension bridge was replaced in 1964, but by 1983 the bridge had to be closed to the public, due to safety reasons. A new aluminium bridge was built and the lighthouse was reopened for public visits in 1997. Thousands of people flock to the lighthouse every year, thanks to the continued public transport service from Holyhead's town centre.
There are over 390 stone steps down to the footbridge, and 10 metal steps (and not, as local legend suggests, 365), and the descent and ascent provide an opportunity to see some of the 8,000 nesting birds that line the cliffs during the breeding season. The cliffs are part of the RSPB South Stack Cliffs bird reserve, with a visitor centre, and bird hide at Elin's Tower. The tower provides a place to see Choughs, Peregrine falcon, Kestrel and various marine mammals like the Harbour porpoise seen at high tide, Grey seal, Risso's dolphin and Bottlenose dolphin.
And yes, it was also focus stacked with 25 pictures in Helicon

It's nearly 40 miles of descending 1.25% grade from Mountainair to Belen, NM on the Belen Cutoff. Near the middle of it, the tracks traverse the narrow confines of Abo Canyon to squeeze through the Manzano Mountains.
Here, a short stack train rolls westward at Scholle as it prepares to enter Abo Canyon behind me. Scholle was the end of double-track from the east prior to BNSF opening a second main through the canyon in 2011.

Hay bales shown in previous images are now stacked, awaiting transport.
Out & about in rural Norfolk uk.
Stacked (comet center only), plus a few brush adjustments...came out much better than I initially expected (seeing conditions were pretty poor). Probably would have been better if I did it at 135 mm on Tuesday night, but it's something! DeepSkyStacker: 200 mm, f/2.8, 12800 ISO, 1.6 sec x 48 frames.
I haven't been doing much macro photography lately, but this is a focus stacked image, of some plant, that came in a flower arrangement...I have no idea what it is, but I found it interesting. lol
Lighting was done by flashpoint 360 in a 28" octobox, camera right, and a bounce card, camera left. The gray background occurred naturally due to light fall off from the flash.
Brilliant! Shelley's crooked cake, conceived as a stack of doughnuts, with a coffee cup balanced precariously on top.
Winter light on Scotland's north east coastline with one of the Duncansby stacks.
Despite the clear skies there was a rim of cloud along the horizon preventing me from capturing the best light.
I counted about 15 seals with cubs on an inaccessible stretch of beach at the bottom of the cliffs. It was great watching their interactions. I was disappointed to see a number of large polystyrene chunks and other litter surrounding them
CSXT 393, CSXT 461 & CN 4792 are the power on CN 327. Up front are stacks and mid-train is an empty rail train.
Beaker is so cheeky and Critter had no idea what was going to happen.

LVRM (Now Phoenix Rail)’s second shift job brings down the pick up cut for NS 260 in Bethlehem. Since acquiring the LVRM properties, Phoenix has repainted two of their MP15s in dark blue with yellow striping. With the lame and underwhelming schemes most railroads have been releasing, this one is pretty nice.

A 3:45am alarm, 4:00am departure, 30 minute drive, and a 30 minute slog along the cliff tops was all it took to be at the Duncansby Stacks before sun up.
I think it was worth it, there was some lovely colour in the sky, but a cold, biting wind made it very uncomfortable.
This was the final photo stop of a cracking weekend out with Carol (MrsR66), Steve (Stoates-Findhorn) and Russell (McRusty) - thanks folks, most enjoyable.

You might perhaps notice what could be taken for a dust mark in the distance on the right, clear against the cloud. Well, it isn't, it's another 'plane in the queue to land.
I was pleasantly surprised to see some traditionally stacked wheat yesterday - two large fields worth, a lot more hard work than a combine harvester... (although it could still be mechanised - just looks a lot nicer!)
They lasted only a few minutes before merging into a wall of white and then Gray. I thought they were unusual. View large.
So, today I did a quick indoor focus stack image using a bunch of dried roses I'd be saving for when I got a chance. Going in close has given a certain abstractness to it I think.
25 images shot as high quality jpeg, auto aligned and stacked in Photoshop, edited slightly in Lightroom for colour balance, light levels and curves, Cropped and exported to Photoshop for framing and logo/watermark.
