THIS WAS TAKEN IN AKAROA NEW ZEALAND, TIMING WAS CRAZY, I LITERALLY TURNED AROUND AND TOOK THIS PIC. IVE NEVER SEEN BIRDS IN A SUCH A PERFECT FORMATION.
This was a little too close for comfort, but it worked out well in the end. DB Schenker Class 90 90018 cruises through Tamworth with the 15:57 Mossend Down Yard to Wembley Eur Frt Ops Cntre tanks, as a Virgin Trains Class 390 Pendolino overtakes it while working the 15:58 1A45 Liverpool Lime Street to London Euston.
I went to look at today's stats (so far), and came upon this number for that moment. In the last five minutes it jumped up to 1,254. As I said, this picture has perfect timing.

These folks just powered under the footbridge as I was crossing. Apart from the one blade at the rear, they seemed to have it together.

In a fluke crossing, 291U crosses W566 west of Blackheath. W566 is the normal Lithgow to Sydney service on a Sunday afternoon. 291U was an ATP testing run from Katoomba to Mt Victoria where the set would stable in the yard overnight.
This was the third and final weekend of ATP testing between Mt Victoria and Lithgow ahead of the final comissioning. Despite the V-Sets not being fitted with ATP, the comissioning of the system from Sydney to Lithgow will allow the safe operation of the New Intercity Fleet when the sets are permitted into revenue service.
As we sat unloading at St. Clair we watched these two vessels approaching us and wondered where they would pass. Unbelievably it was a perfect broadside to our elevated vantage point on the Walter J. McCarthy. Downbound was the vintage laker Mississagi and upbound was the salty Jule. Pure luck.
Here is the description of how this is one as some of you are asking.
The glasses were attached to a piece of plexiglass on a slider that is slide to a stop at which point the water splashes. The water never splashes the same way twice and timing as I found out is key. Thanks to a friend of mine for sharing her set up and knowledge with me yesterday. Her slider was completely a DIY that her husband made for her.
With impeccable timing these little yellow stars spot exactly the right time of the year to rise and shine.
Timing is everything. From start to finish this sunrise lasted less than ten minutes. Just time enough for me to throw some clothes and boots on, grab my camera, and wade down towards the pasture through the 20" of snow on the ground and capture this moment.
This beautiful horse took my breath away when she stepped into the light.

The weather forecast can go wrong many times in mountain. It's one of the times that could make a good deal with.
Our next stop on the trip was Marceline to shoot the transcon. Our timing was about perfect as we were parked and making our way up the bridge when we heard him blowing for the first crossing in town. Judging by the trees in the frame, this might be the best time to shoot from here.
What's that yellow guy in the back?

GWR Churchward "City" 4-4-0 No.3717 "City of Truro" newly repainted in GWR 1906 livery and 1912 number. Has Churchward 3,000 gll tender. At Didcot, 1 May 2010. On an Ocean Mails Special between Plymouth Millbay and London Paddington in 1904, it was claimed that "City of Truro" reached 102.3 mph, the first steam locomotive to (credibly) reach over 100mph. Although doubts were later expressed on the accuracy of the claim, and it was thought a maximum speed of around 98-99 mph was more likely, the latest computer simulation shows that 100mph was just about possible and consistent with the timings recorded.
This is Inde showing off his Jurassic Park The Lost World Glow In The Dark (yeah, you heard me, GLOW IN THE DARK) digital watch. Portable time. It's so portable that right after this photo was taken, he took off like a bat out of a hot place under your feet and it took me over 20 minutes to catch up to him and the watch.
I was going to take a photo of the dogs water dish because apparently IT'S portable also

I've seen this 144 many times before, but timing and/or location was never right to take a picture. Finally...
Nice one. I think my youngest took this shit. This is the beauty of film. It is what it is, I moved and have my eyes shut. Could have been perfect, because Sietske is all sharp. This is life. I love this.

Standing at the side of old US-90, leaning against my ride, watching the sun fade out. Best time of day. From the northwest, headlights. A celebration of turbocharged internal combustion inhaling West Texas asphalt at 80+mph...Showtime! Prefocus. Wait...wait...CLICK!
Despite the cold, it felt good to get outside today. For the Scavenger Hunt's "Person in a field or woods" cliche thread. HCS, very late! Please press "L" :)
...it really is everything. I'll explain. It's almost impossible to tell here, but that's Nickel Plate 765 crossing the Cal-Sag Channel bridge in Blue Island, Illinois. My grand plan for the last run of Nickel Plate 765 on the Rock Island District of the weekend- the deadhead move to the 47th Street shops- was to show up at Western Avenue right after sunset and grab a twilight view of the steamer emerging from the Cal-Sag bridge. The railroad being the railroad though, delays cropped up, meaning it was awfully dark by the time 765 showed up here. Okay, no biggie, I'll get artsy and try a 1/20th or so long-exposure, giving what I hoped would be a dramatic blur of smoke pierced by the twin headlight beams. Well, the crew had the throttle to the ceiling, going through here and across Vermont Street faster than anything I'd ever seen in Blue Island. So on the next click of the shutter, that dramatic blur was halfway under the Western Avenue bridge, and the whole scene was out of focus.
So this is the shot you get. I wish I had recorded some video, as it truly was a spectacular sight.
This toucanet paused on the tree branch before hopping down to get something to eat below. I was ready as he was in the bushes before, so I was able to catch up just before he hopped away.
You would think our local Council has got better things to do with our money or in this case the money they have borrowed when our theatre was perfectly fine. In my mind this was the wrong project at the wrong time. Thank you Blue team for getting this so wrong, in 2018 £18,000,000 now £30,000,000. What a waste of money by a political party that sells it's image as a sensible cash management party.
