The Giardini Botanici Villa Taranto (16 hectares) are botanical gardens located on the western shore of Lake Maggiore in Pallanza, Province of Verbano-Cusio-Ossola, Italy.
The gardens were established 1931-1940 by Scotsman Neil McEacharn who bought an existing villa and its neighboring estates, cut down more than 2000 trees, and undertook substantial changes to the landscape
Today the gardens contain nearly 20,000 plant varieties, representing more than 3,000 species, set among 7 km of paths. Among its collections are azalea, cornus, greenhouses of Victoria amazonica, and 300 types of dahlias. It also contains a small herbarium and the founder's mausoleum.

This picture of the Canale Grande, Venice, was taken in early August 2007 as a panorama consisting of 11 frames. When I rediscovered the files, I thought, some new Photoshop processing techniques I didn't know back then might help the files to become a nice picture.

GÉNÉRATION
En hommage à Florence, ma petite-fille, qui m’a spontanément proposé le titre de cette image.
__________
Sur ces rivages bordés d’infini, un père initie son jeune fils à l’art de la pêche en eau peu profonde. Au premier abord, on pourrait croire qu’il s’agit d’une simple scène de pêche, pourtant…
Dans nos sociétés, l’idée de génération est souvent réduite à une opposition statique entre le passé et l’avenir, entre l’ancien et le nouveau. Je crois plutôt qu’il faut y voir un mouvement, un mouvement continu de transmission et d’évolution des connaissances et des mentalités humaines. En somme, cette transmission, notamment par la filiation, permets à l’originel de rester original et de poursuivre l’aventure humaine. * Ce que nous appelons « l’avenir » est, en fait, le résultat de l’interaction et de la transmission par toutes les générations. **
_________
Ici, sur ces rivages bien en retrait des mondes utopiques qui alimentent la fureur de nos sociétés, le père et le fils renouent avec la patience et la modestie fondamentale de l’existence des êtres. Et aussi avec l’enchantement originel devant la beauté et le mystère de notre monde.
La pêche aura été un bon prétexte pour cela.

GENERATION
In honor of Florence, my granddaughter, who spontaneously suggested the title of this image.
__________
On these shores bordered by infinity, a father introduces his young son to the art of shallow-water fishing. At first glance, one might think this is a simple fishing scene, yet...
In our societies, the idea of generation is often reduced to a static opposition between past and future, between old and new. Instead, it should be seen as a movement, a continuous movement of transfer and evolution of knowledge and human mentalities. In short, this transfer, particularly through filiations (kinship), allows the original to remain original and to continue the human adventure.* What we call the future is, in fact, the result of all these generations interacting.
._________
Here, on these shores far removed from the utopian worlds that fuel the fury of our societies, father and son reconnect with the patience and fundamental modesty of being. Also with the original enchantment in front of the beauty and mystery of our world.
Fishing was a good excuse for this.

From nature back to industrial aesthetics.
I really like the hidden beauty of the form follows function approach in industrial settings.

Montana Rail Link’s Billings Transfer departs Laurel Yard on the clear morning of October 8, 2023. The train is powered by MRL EMD SD40-2XR Nos. 263 and 259 and has a substantial number of cars for the railroad’s Billings Yard.
The St. Lawrence and Hudson Railway was a Canadian Pacific subsidiary from 1996 to 2001.
The StL&H assets were transferred back to CPR ownership and the StL&H was dissolved. The D&H, being the CPR's corporate face in the northeastern United States, remained legally intact.
The few locomotives lettered for the STL&H continued to operate for CP for many years before being repainted or retired.
One of those SD40-2s had a southbound CP freight rolling through Clinton, Iowa somewhere near Milepost 160 in 2008.
A pair of SD40-2s leads the CP/BN Transfer, departing BNSF Northtown for Pig's Eye back in November 1999.
The Soo SD40-2s were harder to find on the road with CPs AC4400CWs assigned to St. Paul by 1999, but you could still find them on transfers like this.
Its an aerial transfer bridge that carries a segment of roadway across a river. The design has been used to cross navigable rivers or other bodies of water, where there is a requirement for ship traffic to be able to pass.

A play on the Twin Cities' "Rocky Soo Transfer," I shot IC&E’s train B73, the Nitrin Local rolling west through Moline, IL on a cold, January day in 2011.
The ICE 114 was built for the SOO in 1954 as their 2409, in Maroon and Gold paint. Later, it would receive SOO's iconic red and white paint, and it would serve in this manner for the SOO, I&M Rail Link, and IC&E. At this point, the unit was 56 years old, and still in regular service.

Summer season on the railway brings track work to much of the CN system. On a warm August morning the L522 transfer has a healthy cut of ballast loads on the head end as it crosses the North Saskatchewan River. The 3 SD's on the head end are the regular power for the transfer, and I still consider myself very lucky to have this to shoot on any given day.

With a quartet of first generation EMDs for power, a combination of Rio Grande trains 42 and 48 pull east through North Salt Lake on D&RGW Subdivision 7. In eight additional miles, train 42/48 will arrived at Roper Yard in South Salt Lake.

One of the most unique VIA units makes an appearance for "MLW Monday". Even though it's from my collection and not taken by me, I thought this John C. Benson photo was interesting enough to be worth sharing. VIA 8558 was the only hood type roadswitcher unit to officially end up on the VIA roster, as CP had wrecked one of the F's being transferred to VIA before the actual handover took place. I'm sure VIA wasn't "thrilled" at this being the substitute for an F-unit, and ex-CP 8558 was usually in trailing service on power consists until supposedly retired in 1982. I know it's seen here at the CP shop in 1983, so I'm not sure about the retirement date or maybe it went back into CP service, just don't know.
4532, 442s2 and CLP12 pass through Menangle as 6SM5 wagon transfer to Victoria. The wagons were off to Victoria to be converted to Broad Gauge, the locmotives were off to Cootamundra for maintenance.

Roasted Chicken with Cabbage and Prunes
Coq au chou et aux pruneaux
(6 servings)
1/2 cup plus 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided
16 pearl onions, peeled
5 carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
4 celery stalks, cut into 2-inch pieces
6 cloves of garlic, separated and peeled
salt, to taste
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, divided
1 (4-5 lb) chicken, rinsed and patted dry
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon lemon zest
1 1/3 cup pitted prunes
1 very small green cabbage, cored and quartered
1/2 cup wine
1 cup chicken stock
Preheat oven to 450F. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, garlic cloves, and ¼ teaspoon pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes. When the vegetables are caramelized, spoon them along the sides of a large roasting pan and set it aside – or place in a romertopf.
Reduce the burner heat slightly and allow the pan to cool a bit.
Add 2 tablespoons oil to pan and return the pan to medium-high heat. Season the prepared chicken, and brown it in the hot oil (the chicken will not brown when baked.) Transfer the chicken to the center of the roasting pan where you have added the vegetables, pour the pan juices on top of it and rub it with the parsley, rosemary, thyme, and lemon zest.
Add the wine to the skillet and deglaze, scraping up any browned bits from the pan. After the wine has simmered for 30 seconds, add the chicken stock and heat through. Pour the wine sauce over the chicken and place the prunes and cabbage on the caramelized vegetables. Cover the roasting pan with a lid or tightly sealed foil and roast in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes.
Serve with steamed potatoes.

Rio Grande 3017, 3021, and 3114 work the east end of Transfer yard in Ogden, Utah.
Since the St Paul Transfer and BN Transfer jobs have been combined, a good deal of power is usually required to pull Short Line Hill up to the Commercial. Today was no exception as a solid consist of power in the new red scheme is spoiled by a pink Dual Flags SD40-2, trailing luckily.
Just west of Chestnut Street the grade is evident as the five units start to dig in for the 5 mile climb on the old Milwaukee main line to the west coast.

On a rather windy day, the CPKC transfer from Knoche Snakes its way through the west bottoms with two SD60's up front with a CPKC painted one on the Point. This would be the last day of the 6222 operating in Kansas City, before being shipped off up north.

Three UP SD60s are the power for the A&S Transfer and are seen doubling up their train at 23rd Street Yard. The lead engine, #2184, is an SD62 rebuilt at Jenks with adjusted control stands and speedometers and rear ditch lights for long-hood forward operation.

Veterans B75 and 44206 are seen leading Waratah set A34 earlier in the day, heading through Thornleigh here as train 4178. This EMU is being transferred from Cardiff workshops to Auburn Maintenance Centre, and the diesel haulage is due to the lack of electrified roads at Cardiff and qualified crew to make the journey.
EMD B75 comes in at a whopping 71 years of service, with Alco 44206 not far behind with 53 years under it's belt.
Thanks to the recent rain and warm temperatures there was a bit more growth in the foreground here than I was hoping for.
CSXT to NS Transfer Job Y-130 approaches Woodlawn, AL. on the 50th Street Branch as they head for NS Norris Yard in Irondale, AL. to interchange with NS & turn back to Boyle’s Terminal in Tarrant, AL.
Y321 heads into Stanley Yard with a cut from Walbridge on an overcast October morning back in 2011. The train will take the Stanley Runner down to the south end of the yard and shove into one of the arrival tracks. It is still hard to believe that this once busy hump yard is now a ghost town.

I learned something new. This is a direct transfer from an inkjet print on copy paper, transferred to artboard with soft gel gloss.
The wonderful Liu Jianhua Transfer at the Dowse 2016.
This is two photos merged. The top foreground picture is part of the Regular Fragile installation showing just some of the hundreds of everyday objects cast in white porcelain hanging on the wall. The background picture is the gold coated ceramic globules on square steel plates on the floor. (The blurred dots are light reflecting off the globules on the other side of the room).
What a beautiful exhibition, I had to go back for a second look, soak it all and with my camera.
I love it when artists allow viewers to capture images of their work and always feel very grateful for their generosity in allowing this.
Nice one Liu Jianhua and Dowse Art Gallery.
