Artist Petrit Halilaj. This year's sculpture installation on the Met's rooftop. The inspiration for the works on display are children's drawings that the artist saw in a school scheduled for demolition in Kosovo.
According to Wikipedia "Abetare" is a children's textbook written in Albanian, created to help teach the basic language

Hey everyone hope you're having a great day :)! Got my brother to go outside with me to enjoy the winter's sun for about ten minutes and take photos. Just wanted to say hi before I bury my self in my self-induced textbook coma.

A Whitetail Buck doin' a little lip curling, also known as the flehmen response. The function of this behavior is to determine reproductive status. Male individuals of a species commonly use the flehmen response as an olfactory mechanism for identifying the reproductive state of females of the same species based on pheromones in the female's urine or genitals.

It was a nice treat to see the perfectly uniform bottom dump coal hoppers on this eastbound snaking through Sully Springs.

I've been inspired lately to finally edit some photos I've had collecting digital dust. Here's one from the thirty minutes I spent in Green Bay.

Abandoned school in Linden, N.C. Someone is taking care of the lawn here, but the century-old structure seems to be a lost cause. The sign by the door warns firefighters not to go inside in the event of fire, to just hose the flames safely from the neatly mowed grass.
This is what the majority of west Arkansas looks like. Even though this is clearly through a windshield, I couldn't help but to get at least one picture.

Thank you in advance for your views, comments, and faves. They are much appreciated!
During mid-morning on 9th November 2014, Kreka Mines 'Kriegslok' 2-10-0 33-064 storms away from the yard with empties for Sikulje mine, just before shutting off for the downhill section into the mine complex. Such were the challenges of this working, but alas daily scenes like this are no longer possible to witness.

Day 99 of 365.
There will come a day where the odd ones out will be the new "in".
Life... well college is textpensive. Like textbooks.. get it? Ah, yeah, that was really bad.
A timely reminder at the 100 milestone. No time? No inspiration? Feeling annoyed at being the only one parked in the work car park on a public holiday?
Simply shoot anything, over-process and move on.
VV 340, also known as Arp 302, provides a textbook example of colliding galaxies seen in the early stages of their interaction. The edge-on galaxy near the top of the image is VV 340 North and the face-on galaxy at the bottom of the image is VV 340 South. Millions of years later these two spirals will merge -- much like the Milky Way and Andromeda will likely do billions of years from now. Data from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory (purple) are shown here along with optical data from the Hubble Space Telescope (red, green, blue). VV 340 is located about 450 million light years from Earth.
Because it is bright in infrared light, VV 340 is classified as a Luminous Infrared Galaxy (LIRG). These observations are part of the Great Observatories All-Sky LIRG Survey (GOALS) combining data from Chandra, Hubble, NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope and Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) and ground-based telescopes. The survey includes over two hundred LIRGs in the local Universe. A chief motivation of this study is to understand why LIRGs emit so much infrared radiation. These galaxies generate energy at a rate this is tens to hundreds of times larger than that emitted by a typical galaxy. An actively growing supermassive black hole or an intense burst of star formation is often invoked as the most likely source of the energy.
Work on the full GOALS survey is ongoing, but preliminary analysis of data for VV 340 provides a good demonstration of the power of observing with multiple observatories. The Chandra data show that the center of VV 340 North likely contains a rapidly growing supermassive black hole that is heavily obscured by dust and gas. The infared emission of the galaxy pair, as observed by Spitzer, is dominated by VV 340 North, and also provides evidence for a growing supermassive black hole. However, only a small fraction of the infrared emission is generated by this black hole.
By contrast most of the ultraviolet and short wavelength optical emission in the galaxy pair -- as observed by GALEX and HST -- comes from VV 340 South. This shows that VV 340 South contains a much higher level of star formation. (The Spitzer and GALEX images are not shown here because they strongly overlap with the optical and X-ray images, but they are shown in a separate composite image.) VV 340 appears to be an excellent example of a pair of interacting galaxies evolving at different rates.
These results on VV 340 were published in the June 2009 issue of the Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific. The lead author was Lee Armus from the Spitzer Science Center in Pasadena, CA.

NR26 and DL41 lead 6AS8 Indian Pacific through Platform 2 at Homebush Station. I've not posted a black and white shot in some time, but the constrast here due to textbook "wrong lighting" made it too hard to resist. I don't believe B/W should be used as a "crutch", but sometimes it can make a shot work, when normally everything says it wouldn't.
