The tidal pools at Haystack. I try to be as careful as I can when walking around this eco system, making sure not to touch the rocks or place my tripod near any living creature. Then to look around at all the people climbing on the rocks, taking sea creatures and putting them in bags.. uhg.. makes me want to hurt someone.
Railfreight large logo grey Class 47/3 47350 'Scorpion' had charge of the 6B19 14:15 Exeter Riverside Yard to Cardiff Tidal Sidings general merchandise freight recorded passing Alexandra Dock Junction Yard, Newport.
The loaded OTA wagons of raw timber were for onward delivery to the Shotton Paper Company as part of the trainload contract service that operated at that time.
A product of Brush Falcon Works, D1831 was delivered in April 1965. In due course, the dual green livery was replaced by BR standard blue and then the large logo Railfreight grey as illustrated. It was unofficially named 'Scorpion' in November 1991 when allocated to Tinsley Depot.
In 1999 the locomotive was rebuilt to become Freightliner 57005 and in due course owned by Cotswold Rail and then Advenza Freight until the company ceased trading in late 2009. The locomotive was then aquired by West Coast Railways in 2011 and is stored at Carnforth.

With the spring tides comes a harvest for the small fish living in the water. as the tide cover green plants it washes off the small insects that did not retreat far enough from the rising tide. on the other side of the river seagulls feed on the fishes and other larger insects brought down river and float in the lighter levels at the top where the fresh water meets the incoming tide
'Great Blue Heron' (Ardea herodias) feeding in the tidal pools at Qualicum Beach, Vancouver Island. Plenty to eat; feasted more than an hour before flying away.
The Tidal Basin is a man-made inlet adjacent to the Potomac River in Washington, DC.
The Washington Monument and Jefferson Memorial, honoring our first and third president.
Visitors are drawn to the area because of its beauty, especially during cherry blossom season in late March and early April.
Each year people come from across the nation to welcome spring and celebrate the National Cherry Blossom Festival.
Tidal caves have small openings that open when the tide goes out and close off when it comes in. This one was an accidental find. I had to lay on my back and be pushed in the walls were amazing I got off about 10 shots with a flash before having to be pushed out.

The last major Atlantic storm has revealed some new layers in this month. Coupled with the improvement in the local weather I have been clambering over the new areas, more exposures to be posted.

Coyote leaving the mud flats of Bodega Bay during low tide. Apparently did not have any luck hunting for crabs or birds.
MUCH OF MY TRAVEL is by subway, so I'm sometimes slow catching on to how things are situated relative to each other on the surface. Much to my delight, when I took my camera out for a walk in my neighborhood yesterday, I found out that the Jefferson Memorial is, oh, maybe four blocks down the street... so, I spent the afternoon sightseeing.
The Yellow Sea, shared by South Korea, China and the DPRK, has an estimated 2 million ha of remaining tidal-flat , and is one of less than 10 regions globally that have “megatidal environments”. As such the Yellow Sea is a globally very rare type of ecosystem, and it forms the core staging area for an estimated 2 million migratory shorebirds in spring and a further 1 million in autumn. This represents no less than 40% of the total number of (long-range) migratory shorebirds supported by the whole East Asian-Australasian Flyway , a wide and long migration corridor stretching from southern New Zealand, through Australia, up through countries of south-east and eastern Asia, through the Yellow Sea, on through eastern Russia as far northeast as the North slope of Alaska.

Within the former German-Soviet Environmental Agreement in the years 1989-1991 3 biological expeditions to the Taymyr peninsula in northernmost Siberia were performed. They laid the ground for the establishment (1993) of the Great Arctic Reserve (Zapovednik). The Taymyr peninsula is covered by the most extensive and northernmost tundra habitats in Siberia. These enormous wetlands are used during the short Arctic summer by millions of waterbirds, which winter in Southern Europe, Southern Asia and Africa. The biodiversity of the Taymyr peninsula is with 20% well covered with different kinds of protected areas. However, there may be need to connect them by South-North corridors to secure adaptation of biodiversity moving North with climate change. With increased warming and thawing of tundra massive release of methane stored in the ground could trigger further climate change.

The sight of Cherry Blossoms around Tidal basin was only enhanced by the soft yellows and oranges of sunset!
The endless variety of what develops in this tide pool among the rocks never stops amazing me.

One of the Cardiff Tidal Yard shunters, 08493 had brought a rake of loaded BDA and empty SPA wagons from the Yard to Pengam where it ran round the wagons and headed back towards Tidal Yard. In the backgound, a delivery of coal to Llanwern was heading towards Newport.

Long exposure photography is not my favorite. I mean, I enjoy looking at it but doing it is another thing.
While in DC for the Cherry Blossom Festival, I stepped out of my comfort zone & participated in an early morning photo walk around the Tidal Basin.
The event was quite fun despite the intense wind & freezing temperature. It was “inauguration cold” as my BFF stated.
Perhaps if I lived in a more interesting city with a great skyline or interesting architecture, I would like to do this type of photography more often. Maybe I would get good use out of my expensive & underused tripod.

The colors of Provincetown Harbor's crystal clear shallow western basin as the tide is draining out.
The photos are taken from points along the Provincetown Causeway, which connects the town with Wood End, Long Point, and the outer beach dunes.
