I do find it difficult keeping to a time .....and being on time, unfortunately for me the sun doesn't and I nearly missed it!

HSS!

Light shines down on the Porcupine Mountains and Lake Superior in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan

Wiltshire Downs, England

That hot, hot Texas sun slips on her best color as she inches her way to the Hill Country horizon, setting her intentions to rise yet again tomorrow...

the first light today for you my friends......

la prima luce di oggi....

    

Come ti sembra il sole del mattino

Dopo una notte lunga e insonne?

Quante stelle daresti alla luna?

Riesci a vedere quelle stelle da dove sei?

Illuminano quelle perse e quelle più solitarie

Quelle che non ce la fanno

 

Hai sempre desiderato di avere

Più della vita stessa

Ma ora non ne hai più voglia

In un messaggio al menestrello

Il mondo non ti ama più

Dimmi, come ti sembra il sole del mattino?

 

Bloccato dentro gli anni dell'arcobaleno

Potevi anche accadere a me

Perchè io sono stato molto vicino a dove sei tu

Ho guidato verso posti che hai visto

Sembra tutto così familiare

Come se fossero stati mandati per ucciderti

 

Non serve un astronauta

Per fluttuare nello spazio

Si tratta solo di un pensiero

Il mattino porta con sè il mistero

La sera lo trasforma in storia

Dimmi, come ti sembra il sole del mattino?

 

E l’ubriacone del paese

Sai che è tristemente passato a miglior vita

E' un peccato che non io

Non sapessi nemmeno il suo nome

Mi chiedo se si siede lì ogni mattina

 

A guardare l’alba

 

Cosa ne pensi del sole del mattino?

E' troppo pesante per me

E tutto ciò che volevo era il mondo

Se tu eri la stella che entrava nel sole

Non sprecare il tuo tempo

Perchè non c’è una linea d’arrivo

E tu non vedi nulla,

Nè l’amore, nè altro,

La notte può portare via

L'uomo che c'è in te

Una sensazione di meraviglia così tanto attesa

Il mattino porta con sè il mistero

La sera lo trasforma in storia

Chi sono io per giudicare il sole del mattino?

"He who occupies the high ground will fight to advantage"...which proved to be the case in this confrontation between two migrating warblers, with the Palm Warbler being the Sun Tzu disciple and the Yellow-rumped Warbler suffering the consequences.

Interestingness/Explore #94.

The Sun is a G-type main-sequence star comprising about 99.86% of the total mass of the Solar System. It is a near-perfect sphere, with an oblateness estimated at about 9 millionths,which means that its polar diameter differs from its equatorial diameter by only 10 km. As the Sun consists of a plasma and is not solid, it rotates faster at its equator than at its poles. This behavior is known as differential rotation, and is caused by convection in the Sun and the movement of mass, due to steep temperature gradients from the core outwards. This mass carries a portion of the Sun’s counter-clockwise angular momentum, as viewed from the ecliptic north pole, thus redistributing the angular velocity. The period of this actual rotation is approximately 25.6 days at the equator and 33.5 days at the poles. However, due to our constantly changing vantage point from the Earth as it orbits the Sun, the apparent rotation of the star at its equator is about 28 days. The centrifugal effect of this slow rotation is 18 million times weaker than the surface gravity at the Sun's equator. The tidal effect of the planets is even weaker, and does not significantly affect the shape of the Sun

I rarely shoot in the evening, being MUCH more of a morning shooter. But I stopped by Busch Wildlife after a bike ride in hopes of getting some wildlife shots. After driving around a bit I ran across this view In an area of prairie. I used my 5DMKIII & a 24-105 for this shot, but the best shots were from my 7DMKII with a 300mm f/4L & a 1.4x teleconverter.

Took a little drive across Denali Highway in search of beginning Fall colors....beautiful trip full of sun,clouds,sun dogs,and Fall colors....along with hunters and end of season tourist...all in all awesome trip of beauty yes it is through a dirty bug impacted windshield and we were going the speed limit

This image was taken last Sunday evening of the sunset over Langstone Harbour, Hayling Island.

 

I arranged to meet with local photographer, Dawn (www.flickr.com/photos/133381514@N05/) who wanted some tips to help improve her sunset shots. After a couple of hours discussing camera settings, composition and the use of ND filters and sinking in the wet mud I was pleased to see Dawn had taken some great shots!

Sun sneaking under the low cloud over Melbourne this morning.

A relaxed polar bear sits on the ice in some fresh snow on a fresh water lake near the shores of Hudson Bay and enjoys some late day sun. The bears are waiting for sea ice on the bay to freeze so they can go offshore to hunt seals.

wonderful weather with lots of sun, but also kinda cold, there was a thin layer of ice on the water here in the Bieslandse Bos.

Iowa Northern Railway train BUWA has IANR 4100, 3809, 3802, and 3803 for power on this December Sunday to make the run from Butler Yard near Shell Rock, Iowa to Bryant Yard in Waterloo. The train had 75 cars out of Butler, but have brought the head 15 into the CN Waterloo Yard for interchange. In the background EJE 667, still in orange, is paused in between it's duties as the yard switch engine, and a few other motors are laying around at the engine facility including EJE 658 in CN paint.

 

The CN is in the process of purchasing the IANR but is still awaiting STB approval, and so this is perhaps a bit of a look into the future. Meanwhile the past is well represented in this view too, as the Illinois Central Roundhouse here in the background has been present in at least in some form, (it's had stalls added and removed over the years) back to as far as 1901 (and possibly longer, it was hard to pin down a good date for the roundhouse construction from just some quick online research).

 

The Iowa Northern Railway uses the CN Mainline in Waterloo and Cedar Falls for a few miles from Waterloo West to Cedar Falls Junction as part of an arrangement going back to the 1980s and a highway project that saw the consolidation of some lines in Waterloo to make room for US 218. Normally from what I've seen the interchange work is typically done by the IANR in either direction at some siding tracks just west of Waterloo West and so they don't come into the yard like this. But occasionally when traffic warrants the CN will have the IANR come directly into the "A Yard" here at the Waterloo Terminal to make their setout and pickup as seen here. They would tie onto a cut of cars and shove back out of the yard to the rest of their train waiting on the mainline.

 

I had gone out after this BUWA even though it was likely to be a cloudy day because IANR 4100 on the point is one of the road's newest units (arrived to the IANR in August 2023 per some online notes, though it's originally a C&O unit) and still looks pretty sharp. But it was a nice bonus to get them making this less-common move, and this angle normally would be a heavily backlit-view if the sun were present.

Towards the Sun - Alexi Murdoch

See, the clouds are creeping

Towards the sun

And I'm slipping away

Unseen by anyone

 

The light is turning gray

The day is done

 

Water is so cold

And heavy on my mind

I dreamed of walking with you

But I fell behind

 

Looking for a road

I could not find

 

And now the ice is stirring

And spring is near

There is no one calling

But the sound is clear

 

Though I'm not yet gone

Goodbye Sun ...
