CN's 1600 yard job heads to Windsor Transload with a healthy train for the busy facility. The trackage they're on is former C&O/PM Subdivision 1, which ran from Walkerville to St Thomas. CSX sold this couple mile section between Walkerville Junction and Pelton Interlocking to CN in the 90s when they abandoned 99% of Sub 1.
Train: CN 1600 Van De Water job with CN 7512 (GP38-2) and CN 4708 (GP38-2).

UP 8028 parks on main two and screws me out of any chances of shooting SP 177 and SP 319, both on two different behind this one. UP 8028's reasoning of stopping here is to set out a car here. Taken in Washington, Missouri on Union Pacific's Jeff City Sub.

My husband just finished the new walk around the top and railing on this house. Was down helping clean up around the house.
So much going on, from China's new AI technology package to our unseasonal weather change everywhere!
Here are two new visitors and a Gold Finch, sharing...They are Purple Finches that add a pretty new shade of colour!
Also 'Head's up" as I will be having surgery tomorrow and won't be posting much for a while...I will look at your posts and comment as I can, because they are too good to miss! :-)
Now, something to think about...
Why didn't the sun go to college?
Because he already has a million degrees!
Take care, everyone!
Well its floating and thats saying something , where its near neighbour to the right out of picture has gone to davey jones locker .. sadly .

I know just how this thing ends
Hallelujah, guess we gave the karmic wheel a spin, oh, yeah
I know just how this thing ends
The aggriever goes aggressor and we do it all again
Take it from a demon
You can't say I never said
Take it from a demon
That the devil don't protect it's friends
Take it from a demon
He'll never work in this town again
Take it from a demon
He'll make sure an angel goes down next
On Sunday afternoon we went hiking at San Francisco's Lands End. We ended up at the Sutro Bath ruins, always a good spot for sunset. We had fun playing with the sun, communicating over distance with hand gestures - no mobile phone reception here.
I processed a photographic and a balanced HDR photo from two RAW exposures, merged them, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Rolling across the desolate Smoke Creek Desert, detoured tonnage (which originated at Englewood, TX) split the old WP searchlight signals west of Sano. In a few more miles this westbound will start up the 1% grade to Sand Pass.

"how's life up there?" asked he
and she answered hastily
in the desperate attempt to unbosom her heart
"it's my last shot" said she
and spewed it out so quickly
so as not to miss this last
twinkling of insanity

Thanks to the Union Pacific and the two Steves, we had a fun night shoot with my favorite Heritage engine.
This particular pond that the Blue Heron frequents has a lot of Water Lily plants that suddenly burst into growth mode as the temperature warms up. In one such instance, this Heron got more than what he bargained for; as he dove his beak into water in order to catch a fish he got tangled up in the weed. At the end he managed to free himself up and went to sit on a floating log to nurse his ego. Richmond Hill, Ontario
the Arc by Concord Pacific. Press L for full screen. The crooked horizontal line of light at the bottom of the bridge (when looking up) was the reflection of a, well swimming pool! That's kinda cool isn't it? :)

word soon gets around as to where the next wave is landing! We rarely see surfers on Dollar cove at Gunwalloe but this day it was the chosen spot for a few surfers. I expect the surf is well up in many parts around the UK with the storm thats blowing across the country right now. I hope you all survive unscathed, Alan:-) have a great W/end too………

In the twilight hours of a winter evening, CN 2225 heads up the north leg of the wye in Squamish, BC as it makes its way towards the port and terminals.
As I came across this scene, several options to immortalize it sprang to mind. I could invert myself and the camera and thus obtain the right-side-up version of this White-breasted Nuthatch. Intriguing, but given my advanced age and continually decreasing agility, I decided against this. Another, equally important, reason against this approach was that I did not want anybody to get the idea that it would be a good thing to come up with a new helmet law for photographers out in the field. Yes, you are welcome. The other option, naturally, was to just take the shot and then invert the image in Lightroom or similar software. Much more appealing. Well, I did end up using this option but decided to leave things in their natural state, mostly for documentation purposes. The advantage here would be that if I ever decided to join a group, the image would be less likely to be rejected due to my obsessively fiddling with the settings in Lightroom. This just recently happened to a bird photographer Down Under and has been weighing heavily on my mind ever since :-)
