After Brian's post on my last picture about a trailing unit with a notable history, I had to look for a shot of PLM 3041 in the lead. I found one occasion, 3 August 1991, a dismal rainy day on Richmondville Hill, when the former UP pioneer 645 unit brought train 555 through Howe's Cave in a downpour. Shot on T-Max 400 film.
This Burlington Northern locomotive looks right at home as it meanders through the rolling farmland except this ain’t Montana, Idaho, or South Dakota! Still wearing her original Cascade Green paint applied in 1974, EMD GP38-2 2098 — reportedly a BNSF expat repaying “horsepower hours” to CN — is seen at the helm of Canadian National’s Brantford to Hagersville local no. 580 as it rolls through the countryside at Middleport, Ontario.

An amazing sunrise at Lake Chapman. Such stillness this early and I love how the sunlight sparkled off of the pavement
Meet Edgar. Edgar is 59 and an enthusiastic boules player. Every weekend he meets here at the Mathildenhöhe in Darmstadt with his fellow players Johann, Manfred, Annelise and Liselotte (weather permitting). Two of the group are from Darmstadt and the other three come from Otzberg. The Mathildenhöhe is a well-known meeting place for boules players from the area, and it is not unusual to meet up to 100 of them here. I like the motion blur, and the concentration in Edgar's eyes. It almost looks like he is defying gravity, the way the heavy steel ball is hanging in the air. My thanks to the other members of this little team for their patience, and I hope they will forgive me for not using all of their photos.

Meet Giancarlo. Giancarlo is Italian, and his passion is singing Verdi arias. He is accompanied by a piano soundtrack that he has in the black bag on his shoulder. Our conversation was made by way of scraps of paper - his German and English were almost non-existent, and my Italian is pretty poor. I think I understood that he just does this for pleasure, but he was really very good. His range of gestures, mimics and poses was fascinating, and there was a constant flow of coins into the hat at his feet.

Strangers in flight
Exchanging glances
Wandering in flight
What were the chances
Aaah I love the classics. Nothing short of a miracle that I got two 2" long hummingbirds in flight, at least 20 feet above me. Dont be misled by those pine cones, they're tiny too.
From the same place and time, a couple more shots:
Milan has changed quite a lot since I lived there up to a decade ago, and I was really impressed with the changes in the area of Stazione Garibaldi. While taking a walk around the new buildings I noticed a beautiful model doing the make up: I decided to keep on walking and avoided to disturb.
By the time I completed my tour, the make up session was over and I think models and crew were all waiting for somebody or something: everyone looking at their own phones, so I could not resist to such a beauty and asked the permission to take some pictures.
Meet Madine.
Madine agreed to be photographed and non of her colleagues complained: wow!
We moved a few meters away and I asked Madine to hold the reflector: I was totally captured by her incredible hair and thought that having the light coming from behind her would create some cool effect on her hair.
Thank you Madine for your time, hope you like the result.

Went for a brief explore around the country roads near work on a windy day. Found a nice quiet lane (or so I thought), started resting my camera on the road, went for the 'pose' and suddenly a plethora of vehicles were using it as a cut through. Legging it back to the camera and scooping it up out of the way raised a couple of curious, if not unfriendly, looks.

Ooh
Can anybody see the light?
Where the morn meets the dew
And the tide rises
Did you realise no one can see inside your view?
Did you realise for why this sight belongs to you?
Ooh
Just set aside your fears of life
With the sole desire
Done it warning, done it now
And it ain′t real on this side
Done it warning, done it now
And it ain't real on this side
Done it warning, done it now
And it ain′t real
Done it warning, done it now
'Cause this ain't real on this side
Ooh
Can anybody see the light?
Where the morn meets the dew
And the tide rises
Did you realise no one can see inside your view?
Did you realise for why this sight belongs to you?
I found a 2G SD card inside a used camera. There are hundreds pictures in the card. Here is the owner‘s selfie of the camera ( i think).
So, I edited the picture, the only best one in the card.
The pictures was taken in Sept 30, 2013.
If the Stranger is your friend, please let her know.
