Having moved into my new condo a few weeks ago, the unit is lovely, warm and completed. Stepping outside is a different matter... beyond my little plot of landscaped lawn, I'm living in a construction zone, while more units are under construction. The bulldozers rattle by all day M-F, then leave these interesting ridges for weekend viewing.
A wondeful characterful laden Oak curves and leans into the track, its old branches and new leaves laden with life.
These photos show work from the first weekend of Loop Track Renewal project, which began in April of 2012. The project will replace more than two miles of elevated rail and track components that were installed in the early 1980s and are nearing the end of their useful life.
New track ties and tie plates wait for installation.

This old aircraft carrier offers great photo opportunities on the flight deck: Grumman S2F Tracker 151657 "22" and an F-14 "Tomcat".
Tracks and OLE (overhead line equipment) poles are installed as the tram route runs alongside Broomhouse Drive.
A Personal Project
At the start of this semester i got given a grid square in Stoke-On-Trent in which i could do a project on what ever i wanted, i could also change my mind, the square i had in the end was very empty just being green field, images can be seen at (on.fb.me/15muAVO),
I did enquire about changing my grid square to this one my house mate found this location on a walk and said it was very beautiful and interesting, i really wanted to take images of the location due to my heritage of my Nan and grandad AKA Pap were brought up on the boats and worked to supplying coal to factories and mainly because Pap recently passed away a couple of weeks before.
At the end of the semester i went to the location because i really wanted to take the images due to my feeling to the area, i told my nan about yeah i was taking images in stoke of the canal lovely place explained it and she told me a couple of storys about cruising up the potteries. A couple of weeks later when i go to see my nan she gets out some photos, which i normally look at when i go around to see if theres any more added or anything, she pulls out the photos which i looked at not just a week before and goes
"Is this where your on about'" See picture - (www.dropbox.com/s/x0mc5z7u5dcyjnt/img145.jpg)
I look in the background of the photo and was astonished just a week before i was at the same location.
It's brought a more close and an emotional feel to these pictures when I've been recently editing them.
