Well im not sure if the chap taking the pics was actually timing a long exposure or on facebook but either way, he added to the interest of this shot. Along with a nice bit of sea movement, The lighthouse and its reflection and you can just about make out the wind farm on the horizon too :-)

I always have my camera on the seat next to me, ready for anything! Today, I'm heading south on I-57, about to go under the KB&S former Big 4 viaduct, when I see the KB&S Kankakee turn headed to Kankakee. The odds were in my favor to capture this shot!

While driving around Galesburg, I noticed a train that was starting to head down the connection to the Peoria Sub. I hit the gas and got to the S Chambers St crossing just in time to catch BNSF 1882 heading under the CB&Q cantilever at Knox interlocking. The cantilever has since been replaced.

I found this strawberry flower this morning.

It will never become a strawberry.

Right place, wrong time...

I like the effect of the receding water movement . . . it's all a matter of timing :-))

The timing for this was almost perfect, but these two actually crossed about a minute apart on the evening of Monday 31st March. GBRf's 66733 'Cambridge PSB' plods along the branch from MoD Kineton with 4C01, 19:21 Kineton - Carlisle Yard. By the time DB's 66148 'Maritime Intermodal Seven' flashed across the gap with 4E68 Southampton - Wakefield, the final wagons of the military train were disappearing around the corner into Fenny Compton.

 

The slow branch speed and long vista means a 'real' shot of 2 trains crossing like this isn't impossible. I'll keep trying, and hopefully won't have to rely on Photoshop next time!

the southern california timing association (SCTA) has been hosting land speed racing meets at el mirage dry lake in the mojave desert since 1937. racers come from all over california to test their skills, to see who can go the fastest in 1.3 miles from a standing start. the event is full of colorful cars, bikes and characters.

No clue why she had her flash on on a bright sunny day....and she was very far from the eagle.

The Public Transport Museum of the Region of Liege opened in 1985, the public transport year! This was indeed the 100th anniversary of the SNCV (Belgian National Company for local transport), the 150th anniversary of the Belgian National Railways and the 50th anniversary of the SNCB’s (Belgian National Railways) electrical traction motor.

 

The Department for Transport, the urban transport companies, the SNCV wish to put their heritage forward.

 

This is perfect timing for transport enthusiasts whom for many years have been planning on opening a transport museum in Liege. Since the 1960’s, some had indeed been requesting public and private transport companies executives to preserve obsolete rolling stock. At the time, those companies only considered its scrap value.

 

“Enlightened” amateur organizations then get together to save this industrial heritage, often built in Belgium and a true testimony of a high quality technical know-how.

While out for a brief period this morning I heard UP's twice-weekly Duluth transfer calling from Tower Avenue in Superior to come across Grassy Point Draw. At roughly the same time a CN light power move called RTC for authority to come down Proctor Hill to Missabe Junction.

 

I thought there might be an outside chance of seeing both at the Junction given the distances each needed to travel were similar. While waiting for them to show up the UP train called BNSF's Duluth remote job asking what their status was. They said they were about done at Rices Point and would be using the westbound to the paper mill. Hum...

 

As I stood on the 27th Avenue West overpass next to the sewage plant I watched as the UP train slowly worked toward my position and the CN light power set eased down the ramp into the Junction yard. The CN crew got off to switch ends before heading down the hole track just as the UP train came around the curve. Over my shoulder I could hear the BNSF job rolling west. The stars aligned perfectly with a rolling meet between the UP and BNSF immediately west of the bridge and the CN power still in the shot directly above.

 

The smell from the sewage plant was ripe, but this meet was refreshingly sweet.

"Jeez! Why does your sister always call when we're both busy, like, busy-busy?"

I just wanted to show off Jamal's new body. Poor guy was sitting on some broken old body for years, but finally he is all articulated and happy again. And I really like this body lol. It must be Worldbox AT020 .

Salted with 0,8% gelatin, 1,8% sodium citrate and 2,0% sodium chloride.

Sensitized with 10 % silver nitrate.

Cleared in citric acid/seasalt, fixed in hypo and rinsed in HCA.

 

If alternative/historic photographic processes need patience, so does water drop photography...

 

Better than before calibrating with HPR, but still haven't found that "oomph" contrast with salt prints. To be continued. :-)

In der Fotografie spielt Technik eine Rolle. Die heutigen Kameras sind ja voll davon. Bald benötigt man einen Waffenschein dafür…. Trotzdem spielt sie für mich eine untergeordnete Rolle, bezogen auf die Landschaftsfotografie. Da ist es entscheidend den richtigen Moment zu erwischen. An diesem Abend sollten mehr als drei Lilien blühen umgeben mit einer schönen Lichtstimmung und schleichenden Dunst aus dem Moor. Würde sagen, das passte ganz gut.

 

Das alles ist nicht immer einfach unterzukriegen, nebst Job und Familie. Besonders, wenn der Anfahrtsweg noch sehr lange ist. Doch mit solchen Belohnungen nehme ich das gerne auf mich. Ich geniesse den ganzen Prozess, mit Planung, den Moment vor Ort und zufrieden wieder heim gehen, sehr.

 

Fast alle meine Fotoprojekte bleiben mir in guter Erinnerung - ja, manchmal auch nur in Erinnerung 😉 ich lasse sie gerne Revue passieren, oft in Form dieser wenigen Zeilen, die ich alle mit meiner eigenen Intelligenz schreibe

 

Das alles wollen und können nicht alle, soweit so gut. Für mich ist das bewusste Fotografieren wichtig und meine Art kreativ zu sein.

I surprised myself with this one! I was trying to sneak up on a Bald Eagle through the crunchy snow. No easy task. He heard me coming and leapt from his perch. I followed him through the trees and snapped quick when I saw an opening. I really thought I missed the shot but lo and behold I got it! LOL! Pretty fast for an old guy!

We were pleased with this first snow of the season back in November, but we have not been pleased with the recent April dustings. It snowed a bit overnight, and there is the possibility of more in the forecast. . So far, April has not been kind to us.

Colorado Springs, CO - Timing is everything. Well maybe not EVERYTHING, but it does help.

I have been living in Sydney for the past 4 years but I never wanted to take a picture of Opera house in a usual way. We have plenty of them in the internet. But this is something special to me.

 

Yes, this is a perfect timing for me to be there at this location. On a cloudy day, I thought of taking some Black and White shots. But the Nature has given me a sarcastic smile :)

Got lucky in catching CN nos.2520 & 2632 rolling across the Monte Lake trestle with a southbound load of empties.
