The threads that connect us to the world are our survival strategy. They are created and destroyed by us and by others. Fragile like the threads that the spider weaves, they are the measure of vulnerability, persistence, the entanglement of life. And in the poetic reflection on the self, the will, and the world, we will find this fragility in another perfect poem by Carlos Queiroz (1907-1949) Aranha, a masterpiece of Portuguese poetry.

Passing through Tunnel 40 along the Colorado River, an eastbound Union Pacific coal train traverses Little Gore Canyon east of Azure, Colorado, on August 21, 2014.
Puffins were on the ledge directly below one of the viewing stations - close enough for shots but difficult to get an angle. I leaned out and over, trying not to give in to vertigo and waiting for gusts to blow vegetation out of my shot!
The Macro Monday theme for 1/30 is screw. This choice fits the three parameters of the theme for MM. It also has garnered the most views and faves. I like the other three for totally different reasons, so I think I’ll dither for a bit before choosing.

While a UP manifest leaves their Riverfront Yard and slides thru town on a short stretch of trackage rights to their "Rabbit" Line, KCS' hot stack train to Atlanta leaves town to the right on Main 1.

In July 1984 on Wyoming’s Sherman Hill, a westbound Union Pacific grain train waits at Dale Junction, Wyoming, on Track 3, as an eastbound reefer train sits over on Track 1. Crossing over from Track 1 to Track 2 is a hot westbound led by a DDA40X and two SD40-2s, with the head end brakemen from both stopped trains on the ground making an inspection of the train threading the needle.

The people in London never fail to impress me. This was no exception. I was wandering between tubes on the London Underground recently, enjoying the curves of the modern architecture when I decided to play 'passer by roulette'. who, or what would appear around the corner for me to photograph.
