Throwback Thursday
View allAll Photos Tagged throwbackthursdays
This week, let's throw it back to late December 2013, where we find an unidentified eastbound freight cruising under the pedestrian overpass at Rosedale with an assortment of Electro-Motive machinery, consisting of CP GP9u 8249, GP38-2 3117, SD40-2 5730, GP9u 8223, and "bandit" ex-B&M GP40-2 4652. This train was likely the Lambton lifter, as all those geeps were regulars between Agincourt and Lambton during this time. Take note of the crystallized landscape all around...I believe we had a week-long ice storm at Christmas time that really hit the city hard, downed power lines and everything.

Over on the other social media that I use I am offering prints of my images from Amsterdam, London and Venice to raise awareness and funds for Great Ormond Street Hospital to begin a research project into the rare auto immune condition of my little niece Beth. If you are interested the link is in my profile.
Many thanks.

I, was waiting all my life to know you
All about you
And now, I'm staring in your eyes and shake down
I'm all about you
And in our mind it comes so easily
But it's a feeling coming over me
I want to show you but there's no where we can really be free
Everybody's watching
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together?
Take me away
Take me far away from here and I will run
With you, don't be afraid
Navigate, and I will steer, into the sun,
We will run
I try, to remember when I was just a child
In my room
My, imagination used to run wild
But I never knew
That things are never as they seem to be
When I dream to life, it's my reality
It should be easy when 2 people love each other, like we
Everybody's talking
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together?
Take me away
Take me far away from here and I will run
With you, don't be afraid
Navigate, and I will steer, into the sun,
We will run
We
Will run
Woah wo wo, wo
We
Will run
Oh ya ya ya
Wouldn't it be good if they would understand us?
Wouldn't it be good if we could be together!!
(Take me away) Take me away
Take me far away from here and I will run,
With you
Don't be afraid
Navigate, and I will steer into the sun
We will run
I will run
I will run with you wherever you go
Don't be afraid
Let's run away and I will steer into the sun
We will, run!
"Look that sky!"
Maybe the first time you saw her you were ten. She was standing in the sun scratching her legs. Or tracing letters in the dirt with a stick. Her hair was being pulled. Or she was pulling someone's hair. And a part of you was drawn to her, and a part of you resisted--wanting to ride off on your bicycle, kick a stone, remain uncomplicated. In the same breath you felt the strength of a man, and a self-pity that made you feel small and hurt. Part of you thought: Please don't look at me. If you don't, I can still turn away. And part of you thought: Look at me.

I made a quick stop at Thingvellir view point. The weather was beautiful and sunny. I have seen Alpes and Mont Blanc in every season but Iceland landscape is really unique. Unique in weather too!!! I had to put off the thickest waterproof layer so I didn't look like... Michelin man. Ssst...I'm not that big...naughty shadow. :)

1934 Brewster Town Car
The Brewster was immortalized in the Cole Porter song, "You're the Top" and is the only American to ever win the Gold Medal at the Paris International Exposition, a gathering of Europe's finest coachbuilders.
The Ford deal and the end.
To save Brewster from the Depression, an employee purchased 135 Ford V8 roadster chassis and designed a body for it, identified by its swoopy fenders and a heart-shaped grille.
Stylish and selling for only $3,500, it was a hit at the 1934 New York Auto Show. The bodies were worth more than the chassis. These cars were registered as Brewster and sold at Rolls-Royce showrooms, and were not branded as Fords.
#ThrowbackThursday and Feb 17th 2018 was a lovely spring day.
The train is the ex-0900 Sligo to Dublin Connolly. 7-car 22000-class with 22219 leading.
The barge "Celtic Starr" was undergoing an internal re-fit.
Processed in Photomatix (5 different exposures combined).
I wanted to do a throw back Thursday and use this first frost frame from 2011, using an old Olympus camera that I think got 5 Megapixels per frame, oops looked it up and saw it was a whopping 1.3 megapixels per frame compared to now average 20 megapixels per frame. Still a good shot for frost. Olympus D460
#ThrowbackThursday - the 2016 Haunted Express 30/10/16
Captured approaching Leixlip Confey, RPSI No 4 hauls the first Halloween special of the day to Maynooth.
RPSI No 4,, reflecting the low evening sun passes Dun Laoghaire harbour en-route to Greystones with the second Halloween Special of the day, 01/11/15.
Purebred Collie we had in the Seventies. This was taken inside our NAPA parts store where she spent the day with me. She was a very nice dog, but we weren't a good fit. She was the runt of the litter and had spent two years in the kennel. She was skittish and easily frightened. We gave her to a farmer with kids and lots of room to run. I think it was the right thing to do.

#ThrowBackThursday to one of the more creepy sights exploring- 3 doors within an old decaying operating theatre of a former military hospital that appear to be bleeding! Now converted/demolished for housing.
Have a spooky Halloween all!
Throwback Thursday
That's me on the left. I was just a pipsqueak back then, and my older sister Marlene on the right.
#throwbackthursday got me thinking and I realized that it's kind of funny that my good camera prior to about 2016 was a film point and shoot. I got it out over my cheap digicams when I wanted higher quality photos that I didn't want to lose to the things that digital files are susceptible to. It's funny, that's a big part of why I still prefer film for family events despite having a great DSLR now.
