I was annoyed to see that a number of car tyres had been thrown into Skeleton Creek. These two Grey Teals were making good use of this one to have a rest.

Gold-marked thread-waisted wasps atop a Wild goldenglow blossom. Nature neither looks away nor blushes, it gets on with the business.
Two male Mallards just chilling in the evening at North Point. The colorful males have changed from their showy breeding colors to the more drab brown colors of the winter plumage.
Still, if you look closely on the head of the mallard to the right, some of the green color is just visible yet...

With spring on the horizon and the 627 soon to be shootable again, here's one from when it was greener (in more ways then one), specifically May of last year.
I only started somewhat recently keeping notes from every shoot outside of my Flickr posts so I don't have much of an idea for what happened on this day. I can see it was a Wednesday, so I presume I had brought my equipment with me that day with the hope that 1462 would lead the 627 west to Aurora that day. Sure enough it did, with a triclops 60M in tow.
I've wanted a shot of a BN leader off of the Pleasant Dale bridge on a sunny evening for a long time and I'm glad I was able to cross it off with this one. Judging by the folder from that day, they must have been making good time as I didn't get back in front of them again until west of Tamora. By that time, the clouds had come in and the sun was gone, so I called it there. Jamison appeared in one of my photos so I know he was out for this chase. Sam, were you there as well? I'm tagging you anyway--I don't seem to get out much unless I'm along with you.
As you can tell from my very infrequent uploads over the last year and a half or more, I have quite the backlog to pull from. I have a process that I go through with cataloging and editing and uploading each image that will keep me sane 30 years from now but is a pain to do every time I shoot a train, so I struggled with the motivation to keep the uploads a regular occurrence. Two weeks after this photo was taken, I was let go from my job, and on top of a lot of other things going on it life, I lost all motivation for pretty much everything, something I'm still working on recovering from.
All that to say, I have a good chunk of photos to upload that I will be working on adding here and there among recent shots. I don't even know what all I haven't gotten around to yet, but I hope to be caught back up again at some point.
BNSF SD60M 1462 leads the Aurora local westbound on the Ravenna Subdivision outside Pleasant Dale, Nebraska, May 14, 2025.
This shot was taken with the same old Leica lens that I used for the shot of St Paul's Cathedral that I posted a few days back. It's a 90mm lens but when I adapt it to use on my Olympus Micro 4/3s camera, with it's crop sensor, it effectively becomes a 180mm lens. Using a telephoto lens that long will inevitably introduce a lot of compression into an image and you see that phenomenon very clearly here. The chimney tower on the right, which stands on top of the Tate Modern museum, is approximately 250 meters away. Meanwhile the slightly taller Shard building on the left is approximately 1100 meters away (distances measured in Google maps). The Shard is 306 meters high, the Tate chimney tower is 99 meters high.
an old but unforgettable photo i did in Sabie Sands, 14th august 2015 .
at sunset time a beautiful young leopard (panthera pardus) male
called "Quarantine" climbed the termite mound next to us and
started watching the sunset.
then he decided to get up and leave.
the scene was too close for my camera lens so i decided to use my smartphone.
a now very old Samsung Note4 did his job .
the rangers were very surprised by this shot and they asked me a copy of the photo.
Quarantine is now a dominant male in sabie sands, this shot is in the ranger office.

“Golden”
Golden, golden, golden as I open my eyes
Hold it, focus, hoping, take me back to the light
I know you were way too bright for me
I′m hopeless, broken, so you wait for me in the sky
Brown my skin just right
You're so goldeYou′re so golden
I'm out of my head, and I know that you're scared
Because hearts get broken
I don′t wanna be alone
I don′t wanna be alone when it ends
Don't wanna let you know
I don′t wanna be alone
But I, I can feel it take a hold (I can feel it take a hold)
I can feel you take control (I can feel you take control)
Of who I am, and all I've ever known
Lovin′ is the antidote.....

Two's company - The maze like limestone pavement of Twisleton Scar End stretching out to Ingleborough in the distance on a bright spring morning. Two ash trees cling to the limestone in this seemingly inhospitable environment.
