Flickr friends, what do you think ? This is the original, straight out of the camera, but I thought it looked a bit squintbso I cropped it, see version 2. But now I think they both look a bit squint, it's irritating,,because the one I posted on IG is more satisfactory, but theynwon't let me share! Oh well , if anyone has time I'd appreciate your comments :)
Earlier this year CP ran a CWR train along the Galt Sub dropping rail in various locations before continuing south down the Hamilton Sub. While working their way east, the consist was left tied down on the Killean Storage Track on Galt's east side one evening giving local photographers the opportunity for night shots of the London-built SD40-2.
With the time change 'springing ahead' during the night, I was afforded an extra hour of darkness in the morning, with just enough time to grab a few shots after work before the sun came up.

I took a day trip recently to a great place to visit, Dauset Trails Nature Reserve; It had been a year since I was there and what a difference! I was a month too late, and the water in the Lotus Pond was way down, the water looked black except in a few areas where the blue sky was reflected...The long hot summer had taken its toll...Even so, if you were willing to lean way over and hold back some weeds, there were still lovely lilies to be found!
Hope you are having a great week!
This is one of the least busy places I know, always was.
But just when I arrived there today two walkers settled on a bench for their break.
Well, I know how to get there.
It's also a nature reserve since 1938 and originated as a relic of an Ice Age glacier.
Yellow warning of thunderstorms:
Some places are likely to see severe thunderstorms on Monday - but there is significant uncertainty in location and timing.
Breakfast on the beach this morning, (Beer, Devon,UK).
Like a mini vacation, three day weekends are a welcome respite from a busy work schedule. On this occasion, it was the Family Day Statutory Holiday that gave most people a break and a few took advantage of free fishing to enjoy the perfext timing of a sunny day.
I was glad I was able to get focused on the female Belted Kingfisher as it flew by the female Common Merganser. Central Bucks, PA.
Fortuitous Timing: I knew there was a NB BNSF approaching Cheyenne as I seen it on my drive up from Colorado Springs. With that being said I figured I had a better than a decent chance to catch an over under shot at the west end of UP’s busy Cheyenne Yard on the busy Overland Route. Once I set up to wait for the BNSF I could see this guy approaching, albeit very slowly, and was hopeful he would make it at least to the underpass. As luck would have it the UP train had pulled through the underpass as the BNSF rolled by overhead. 7.29.16
I spotted this Osprey and the moon behind it. At first the moon was to the right, took some pics, repositioned myself and waited a bit to get this shot. Central Bucks PA.
Sometimes on the Ferry ride home, we are fortunate to time it with the sunset. This night was no exception in terms of color and vibrance. The sky was lit with various warm colors and the distant mountains delivered wonderful shapes and silhouettes.
In order to capture the image without creating a fuzzy one, the ISO, and shutter speed are turned up. One needs to take advantage of whatever one can, in order to deliver something worth keeping.
Some strange timings can occur with this working and I've stood for a couple of hours only for it to be caped at Carlisle Upperby Bridge Junction having watched proceed that far on the maps. Today, It ran early out of Carlisle, passed me at Yanwath 36 early then sat in the loop at Eden Valley, leaving 3 minute late. This enabled me to relocate to Bessy Gill.
90045 and 90004 pass the gallery of 5 on their way south with the 4M83 Saturdays 10.33 Coatbridge to Crewe Basford Hall. This was a regular 86 working a few years ago too. 16/7/2022
After 5 years I finally took a moment to clean up and re-edit what is still to this day my favorite image... Not much can really beat the light, timing, and place, for me in this image. A fortunate few moments in the sun...
Thanks for looking!
At the foot of a mountain, a CP Train passes within metres of a restored, yet abandoned church. It is on private property so this shot is from the roadway across from the farmland. Timing the passing of the train was not too challenging, considering it was pulling a multitude of cars, and moving slowly.
This area is still plush and mostly farmland. It is late September and colours are beginning to change. The trees will not colour up like those of northern Ontario, where Maple Leaves adorn the forests. However, these colours have altered, and will continue to do so as Autumn approaches.

Timing was fantastic ... took me 3 years to get these. Thanks Sue for doing the hard work and timing!! was the most magical evening/day
Good timing for me that these Epiphyllum Hookeri -- Hooker's Orchid Cactus are blooming so much! Two blossoms at once (and a little creative composite editing) were a blessing for me. They don't even last a day opened ... so I had been watching the double ones that had appeared and was blessed they opened on the right day for SoS!
This is what they look like before opening up!

Happy Smile on Saturday!
Neon lights and colourful menus brighten the night at Good Timing Food Village, a lively hub of street food and local flavours.
Went looking for shells at Crooked Island Beach, and hit it just right. Shells were everywhere! Everyone stay safe and warm during this winter storm! Remember Jesus came to save us, and all who give Him their lives will be saved, its not complicated! Thanks for stopping by and God Bless!!
Another 20 minutes and the light would have gone kaput, luckily everything worked out because I've been wanting this photo for a while. SLR train 393 lead by RM-1 804 pours it on climbing into Gilead, Maine, leaving a fog of rich smelling diesel exhaust behind as they roll west into the setting sun.
804-3804-3105-3803-803, 9x12 Gilead, ME
The adult peregrine falcon drop a piece of bird in the air, the juvenile peregrine falcon catching it in perfect timing.
My heart goes out to the fellow who has just arrived at the fishing pier. The afternoon had been sunny, warm, calm, but just as he set out for some relaxation the winds kicked up out of nowhere and the skies filled with clouds making the temperature drop like a rock. Better luck next time.
Day 2 of 2025 saw sun and clouds. When this train to Gent passed me, I saw mostly clouds. It wasn't as bad as a few hundred meters more towards Lokeren. There, sun and rain added some spectacle to the photo.
Timing is everything, as a few minutes earlier the foreground scene was also lit by the sun. And a few minutes after this shot, I had to run and seek shelter for the rain.
The Pendulum Staircase at The Franklin Institute, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. The Franklin Institute is an interactive museum that aims to present scientific and technological principles through exhibits that you can touch and feel, as well as view.
The Pendulum Staircase has a row of pins around the compass rose. As the Earth rotates, the pendulum swings and knocks down each of the pins in turn.
My father and I would often visit the local train yard whenever we were out and about. Our timing was perfect when we arrived in Provo, Utah just in time to see a Union Pacific SDP35 on the turntable the afternoon of Jan. 16, 1977. The 1400 was the class engine, one of 10 built by EMD for UP passenger service in August 1965. All 10 were retired in 1985.
