I've now had my tripod in this exact same spot on at least four occasions in the last two months... each time desperately hoping to get the shot that I had pre-visualised... but had not yet captured!
But... if I've attempted to shoot from this exact same spot four times already... then you might now be asking... why is the title of this post "Third Time Lucky"?
Well... because this is yesterday evening's shot... hah hah... nothing that I shot there at sunset today came close to what I managed to capture in this image.
The more you practice... the luckier you get!! :)

Katherine Swinford's House

Duchess of Lancaster, was the third wife of John of Gaunt, Duke of Lancaster, a son of King Edward III. She had been the Duke's lover for many years before their marriage.
She was laid to rest in Lincoln Cathedral and her tomb, together with her daughter, Joan Beaufort, can be found in the sanctuary.
Before the third Queensferry crossing was built.
I spent some time berthed in Rosyth back 2013, a 30sec LE looking back down the Forth towards the then 2 bridges.
Bogaczewo is one of the coolest stations in the general proximity of Gdańsk, when you only count in those, where there actually is regular traffic. All that thanks to the array of semaphores at the entrance from the direction of Pasłęk/Braniewo. The impressive 10 meter tall structures with 5 meter distant signals (a huuge rarity nowadays!) provide an interesting background for any picture taken here.
This picture of the EP07-365 with the IC 58106 "Gryf" on hook was taken exactly from the place where the old broad gauge track from Kaliningrad used to run. The line terminated in Bogaczewo and was partially dismantled in the 1990s and 2000s. Now the broad gauge only reaches to Chruściel. A nice reminder of the old 1520mm line was a third semaphore signal, which would be sitting to the left of the frame. As opposed to the ones currently standing, the third signal was noticeably smaller with a height of 8 meters. It was dismantled around the year 2020.

Once again the Fast 5 were unsuccessful in their hunting this day. Here one of the 5 gives it another go.

After two other shots of Amtrak 203 on dreary, miserable days, I finally lucked out when I got word that they were to lead the Silver Star south out of DC on a pleasant March afternoon. Coupled to an ALC-42, this consist is about as colorful as one can get on Amtrak.
I have a first life. I live a Second Life. Out there there's another world waiting for me to live yet a third life. I can dimly see it from here. It's far away. I need a way to get there.

3rd Cascade
Meadow Creek
Mill Springs
Wayne County
Kentucky
What I love about Meadow Creek is, as you walk upstream you're greeted by scene after scene of beauty. After climbing up the the 2nd cascade and walking several feet you come to the next drop. Although not tall, 4 feet or so, it makes for a wonderful foreground as you see the final cascade in the distance. The spring greens were really popping here and I couldn't resist a few shots before moving on and shooting the last. Truly, Kentucky at it's best.

Got a new super wide. Having fun with it, but still learning how to use it .... this was shot from the 3rd Burroughs (RT 8.9 mi, 2600' gain, high pt 7828'). The last time we were up there it was early summer and covered in snow. We met a lot of skiers that day. It was pretty quiet while we were here this time ... just a couple of hikers.

The Ammersee is the third largest lake in Bavaria, southwest of Munich, an idyllic jewel in the middle of nature. Along the shores of Lake Ammersee are picturesque towns like Dießen, Utting, Herrsching. On Lake Ammersee there are still old-fashioned paddle steamers, you can get on and off at various places around the blue-green lake.
I got out for a bike ride on my AiPAS Ebike today. Rode on the Third Creek Greenway from Tyson Park out to Forest Hills and then back. Logged a total of 17.6 miles (including my ride down to Tyson Park and back home ).

My Best Congratulations Andrea... A si biri Capitano :-)
For Sardinia, for Italy... :-) GREAT INDEED....
Andrea Mura arrived in A Coruna in gentle southwesterly winds crossing the finish line at 2:44 pm local time (13:44 UTC) after 120 days and 44 minutes since his departure on November 18th. He achieved his held dream and, as he put it, this circumnavigation gave him back as much as he had to give to achieve it and feels he is totally at peace with himself now, happy to be back and happy to see family and friends. It was another long day and we’ll follow this up with a longer article as usual, for the time being we just wish to congratulate Andrea on his enormous achievement. Cole Brauer handed him the trophy and it was another emotional day for the skippers of the Global Solo Challenge.

Bang....... it happened at last. What looked as though it was turning into a damp squib suddenly erupted into a paparazzi scramble when she peeked over the cloud in the top of the arch. I think you will all guess I’m well chuffed. One off the buckets list, ✅ done, 99 more to go

Lucky enough to be able to spend some time in Muir Woods in Norcal, and had a roll of TMAX100 with me as well as the Rolleiflex 3.5F. As noted before, it might not be the best speed given the degree of cover, but went in the afternoon this time so was hopeful. I very much like the combination of TMAX wit Rodinal semistand, particularly in these types of mixed light situations. Lots of tonality can be appreciated, and it gave me a bit more flexibility knowing that I'd be developing with a semistand approach. Thanks again to the fantastic flickerans who continue to inspire. It really helps the rest of us be more observant!
Kanchenjunga (Nepali: कञ्चनजङ्घा; Hindi: कंचनजंघा; Sikkimese: ཁང་ཅེན་ཛོཾག་), sometimes spelled Kangchenjunga, is the third highest mountain in the world, and lies partly in Nepal and partly in Sikkim, India. It rises with an elevation of 8,586 m (28,169 ft) in a section of the Himalayas called Kangchenjunga Himal that is limited in the west by the Tamur River, in the north by the Lhonak Chu and Jongsang La, and in the east by the Teesta River. It lies about 128 km (80 mi) east of Mount Everest.
Kanchenjunga is the second highest mountain of the Himalayas after Mount Everest. Three of the five peaks – Main, Central and South – are on the border between North Sikkim and Nepal. Two peaks are in the Taplejung District, Nepal.
Kangchenjunga Main is the highest mountain in India, and the easternmost of the mountains higher than 8,000 m (26,000 ft). It is called Five Treasures of Snow after its five high peaks, and has always been worshipped by the people of Darjeeling and Sikkim.
Until 1852, Kangchenjunga was assumed to be the highest mountain in the world, but calculations based on various readings and measurements made by the Great Trigonometrical Survey of India in 1849 came to the conclusion that Mount Everest, known as Peak XV at the time, was the highest. Allowing for further verification of all calculations, it was officially announced in 1856 that Kanchenjunga is the third highest mountain in the world.
