I was driving home and this late afternoon sky looked impressive enough for me to see if I could make something of it. Sadly my bedroom window was not the optimal viewpoint and naturally the scene faded within moments. Still the result has something of the atmosphere...
As I explained in the description to my "Suburban Dreams" slideshow, each of these photographs are related to the other. www.flickr.com/photos/luminosity7/52638166831/in/datepost...
They are not random shots, but each tells us one more thing about the nature of a typical modern working class suburb. I always work in series, but this collection was most definitely planned. The twilight setting and light is all part of the creation of a mood. Is it possible to find things of beauty in the midst of the mundane and ordinary? That's more about philosophy than photography. And why I am such an odd fit for Flickr.
Sweet dreams!
* As if I need to explain myself, but it appears that on Flickr many people do not understand that the choices photographers make also can include soft focus. A sharp photograph here would have destroyed the kind of light I wanted coming from this window (enlarge the photograph to see its luminance). There is also the serious issue of peering into someone's room without their permission. So the choice was obvious. I will continue to make the photographs I wish to make - this is part of a series of 65 photos on suburban dreams - and if you do not like them then may I kindly ask you to refrain from visiting my page! Thank you to those of you who understand that there is more to photography than reproducing what can already be seen with the naked eye.
This is a busy line, I've been trying to take a photo without passengers for years, I finally succeeded.
Damhussøen, Rødovre. The sky never really gets black because of the reflected light from Copenhagen.

Inspired by my comrade in screen-shooting Magdalena A, I tried my hand at mashing together two of my favorite ENB setups (both made by the always fabulous L00). Still wants a bit of tweaking, but it's getting there. Got to scratch that itch for densely textured, low-fi, grungy, film photographic verisimilitude.
Wisconsin Central train FDNS was rolling south through the northern Chicagoland suburb of Prairie View in 2000.
WC SD45 6531 (built by EMD in 1971 as Burlington Northern 6531) led Norfolk Southern SD40-2 3283 (built by EMD as Southern Railway 3283) had the Fond du Lac to Elkhart freight well in hand.
A pair of Union Pacific's former Chicago and North Western C40-8s had an eastbound through Elmhurst back in 2005. A BNSF ES44DC and a UP EMD were helping out.
The 9035 is now working for the Canadian National as their 2011. The number 9035 is now occupied by a SD70AH on the UP roster.

Like everyone who could not find the opportunity to take new photos during the epidemic days, I browse through my old photo archive and share some of my loved ones.
The place you have seen is a place called Süleymaniye in the Fatih district of Istanbul. It has hosted many immigrants for years. You can always see plenty of children in its streets, making it a popular place for amateur photographers. It has an impressive character with its colorful buildings and historical texture that you can witness in every corner.

Tonight's was another beautiful sunset. But I couldn't take yet another picture of a perfect suburban sunset ... then I saw the moon too and I didn't have much choice really did I?
We see deer in the yard from time to time, and they nibble their way through the neighborhood... but usually they aren't this tame, and they aren't out in broad daylight. This guy returned the next day with a girlfriend. They filled up on acorns.

These rocks and brick were supporting one of the larger water breaking rocks that are eroding and breaking off along the Port Union path due to the high water levels. Apparently the water level is at its highest since the 1980s.
Most of the paved trail in this area isn't impacted, but this short stretch is suffering enough damage that I could see access being closed if the water gets much higher.
