Timing is everything, a split second later and I would have missed the water droplet falling from this loon's beak. That's why we've got high speed shooting now I guess, so we don't miss the slightest detail.

A colourful building in Montreal that I stumbled upon recently. It is the new Convention Centre. At a certain time in the afternoon, if the light is just right, the colour from the windows is reflected onto the street.
UP 844 arrives into Pacific, MO for a stop as the sun pops out. This was the only sun seen on the 844.

C'est une première pour moi. Et c'est un coup-double. Je n'ai jamais vu de Gros-bec Errant niché dans la grande région de Québec; Encore moins de jeunes. Quelle fût ma surprise lorsque j'ai vu ce mâle nourrir son petit!!! J'ai eu beaucoup de chance d'être là, au bon moment, et de pouvoir capter cette si belle scène.
-----------------------------
This is a first for me. And it is a double hit. I have never seen Evening Grosbeak nestled in the great area of Quebec City; Even fewer juveniles. What was my surprise when I saw this male feeds his youngster !!! I was very lucky to be there at the right time, and be able to capture this beautiful scene.
Well away from its normal morning timing, here 60010 passes Miskin in the Vale of Glamorgan with 6B13 10:05 Robeston Sidings to Westerleigh Murco. Some recent bankside vegetation clearance has finally opened up this view once again.
Many of my trips to the former Boston & Maine’s East Deerfield Yard in west-central Massachusetts were not without a stop at my other favorite spot of Millers Falls. Here the north-south Central Vermont Railway and the east-west B&M would meet and the tracks of both railroads ran side-by-side for a bit. The CV southbound job to Palmer crosses the Millers River and I somehow snapped the shutter right before shadow engulfed the lead engine.
Just as Doc was exiting our tiny grocery store in Glennallen - 5 big tour buses pulled in dumping out well over two hundred troops. They all made a wild dash for the doors, and at times were bottle necked. I don't see how our store could possibly have met the needs of all those hungry young people. It's a good thing Doc and I got there before they did.

Thank you for taking the time to view my photo, and for the faves and comments you make, thank you.
My trials with film continue. This is my 1st moonlit scene captured by a long exposure, with my Pentax 6x7 and SMC Takumar 105mm f/2.4 and Fuji Acros 100 film. Eagle Island lighthouse providing some of the illumination.
I've a lot to learn about exposures and developement times and technics of developing the negatives so that I don't leave imperfections!! I'm enjoying the process so far though, I could take hundreds of digital images on any given night and batch process in LR but with one roll of film I get just 10 exposures, long exposures, which is fantastic because I get time to enjoy the sensory aspect of being out in the night.

I believe this is the first time I was able to catch a train coming under the DeKalb coal tower at the exact time the setting sun was shining through one of the windows of the coal tower. There is only a minute or two of opportunity for this, so even though the sun was a little muted due to clouds, the timing was just perfect on this 8-29-17 date.

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.
On a cold, Winter day, the fog briefly lifts to reveal this beautiful scene, before closing-in again a few minutes later! --- Rannoch Moor, Highland (Jan 2012).

There are some photographic challenges unique to coastal environments which can ultimately make or break a photo. For a given composition to work, you not only need the right time of day, but the right wave from the right tide, which may only happen once a week...ideally with a half-decent sunset. I'm pleased to say this one worked out!
Also, a thank you to Joseph Rossbach and Kurt Budliger for serendipitously holding a workshop in the area. If I hadn't noticed a dozen tripods from their workshop the night before, I might have missed this location.
GWR retro-liveried pair 43002 and 43185 were in charge of the 1606 London Paddington to Penzance on 4th September 2017, so I took the opportunity of a trip to Royal Oak to phot the pair on departure - with the intention of photting both ends.
As you can see, timing IS absolutely everything and I only got to take the approaching train and not the rear end!
The WLMNTW (Willmar, MN to Northtown Yard) manifest heads east out of Waverly with a GP50 on point with a pair of SD40-2s behind it. Here they pass the iconic barn east of town. I got word this was coming east, so I decided to try this shot of the barn off Highway 12 for once. I came here from the east to shoot the train, and no sooner than 15 seconds after I arrived the train appeared. Probably some of the best timing I've had with a train.
