As stars fade into daylight I feel like the endless possibilities solidify into the most probable. Although this is titled waking up, this is the last shot before returning to camp and sleeping until noon.

 

On loan, some very cool flat ware. I will never tire of these tarnished pieces. Serving up flowers today with a paper texture 10 form Deviant Art, and from Cottage Arts a scrap edge and overlay. I have one little orange Cosmos and 3 Moss Rose ie: portulaca flowers on the menu! Thanks for all the views, comments and favs.

National Airlines 30th Annivesary 747-400F takes off from O'Hare. She didn't use much runway and was pretty high up when she flew over me at York Road

Fall has really settled in here in eastern central Missouri as UP 6040 and UP 6632 leads a loaded coal bucket east through the old historic part of Washington, Missouri on Union Pacific's Jefferson City Sub.

This mask was one of many items I photographed while there.

Such a lovely day! Piles of dolls are my favourite kind of piles <3

Today I looked back at the pictures I've taken since I signed up for Flickr. I couldn't believe how many there were..

 

I joined Flickr in August 2006 because I heard about it from my friends. I've always loved taking pictures and my camera is like an extension of my body. I carry it with me everywhere.

 

In October, 2006.. I posted my first 365 days entry ( HERE )

 

That was over one year ago. I had just moved back to New York with My husband, Eric after living in Germany for four years. It was a real struggle living as a married couple at home again in my twenties but It was something I needed to do. My family was going through a really hard time and I wanted to be there to help them

 

Over the course of one year, so much has changed in my life and it was all documented here. I met a community of other photographers from different locations over the world that really became a support network and true friends to me.

 

You were there to cheer me on when we moved out and got our own place in New York. ( HERE ), when we bought our car, Marty ( HERE ). You encouraged me when I was nervous about my new job ( HERE ). You came along during my first trip to Las Vegas ( HERE ) and offered road trip advice when we decided to quit our jobs and drive across the country from New York to San Francisco ( HERE ) and you even came along for the ride from motel to motel across the United States. ( HERE )

 

There were troubles along the way. My mother's surgery ( HERE ), My brother's problems ( HERE ) and when "Marty" broke down ( HERE ) financial struggles, fears and doubts. Ups and downs of life...The good times and the bad.. you really helped me get through it.

 

In the past year and a half, I've moved from Germany to New York, from New York to San Francisco. It's been a crazy transitional time of my life. Even though I missed a month or so when my computer broke down and I started over at Day 1 again once I moved to San Francisco... I have 270 days of my life recorded here in total.

 

I just wanted to take a moment to THANK YOU for being there as friends. For your support, encouragement and advice over the past year. It meant a lot.

 

Going through all of your photostreams, seeing glimpses of your lives and the stories you share motivated me to keep going. I feel like I know a lot of you even though we never met in person.

 

I don't know where I'll be when this 365 days project comes to an end, but hopefully we'll have a new apartment, jobs we truly love and MAYBE we'll even be building a nursery for our first child. (me.. a mother? imagine that...)

 

Who knows what the future brings? I just have to take it day by day and enjoy the journey.

 

It's all a part of life.

 

Thanks for coming along for the ride with me so far

 

Day 52 of 365 days

 

P.S. So...The landlord finally called us! She wants 2 months of paystubs, tax statements, letters of recommendation and a full extensive interview on Sunday.

 

Then she will give us the final verdict on whether or not we get the apartment.

 

You would think we were trying to adopt her first born child. This is crazy...

 

I hope we make it past the final elimination round and she hands us the keys. *fingers crossed*. ah.. so nervewracking.....

We were gifted some great seats to a recent volleyball game and got very up close and personal to the servers and players.

An early evening frame taken at South Brent, Devon in June 1989. BR Railfreight 37699 was hauling a mixed consist forming the 6B43 SX 15:50 St. Blazey to Gloucester Speedlink.

Originally built as an SW7, UP #96 was one of 55 older EMD switchers (NW2s, SW7s, SW9s and TR4As) rebuilt by the railroad in the late 1970s and early 1980s as an SW10.

 

From Utahrails.net "The SW10 rebuild program included 645-power assemblies in place of the original 567-assemblies. Also included were all new cabling and wiring, and updated electrical gear, which included a couple module cards with some solid state circuitry. A new consolidated equipment rack for the water tank, oil filters, and other mechanical components was built using parts from retired GP9s. A new radiator section using twin 36-inch electrically-powered cooling fans, also taken from retired GP9s, was installed to replace the inefficient and expensive to maintain belt-driven 54-inch fan that originally equipped these units. The new design also included a large sandbox occupying the front of the unit in place of the original radiator fan intake and radiator shutter assembly. This new, external sand box design did away with the two original, internal sand boxes, with their four difficult-to-access sand traps. The cab interior layout and design also received attention. The new design included a modern control stand, electric cab heating, an electric refrigerator, and other features to bring it up to the FRA-mandated "clean cab" standards. Also as part of the rebuild program, the original friction bearing trucks were converted to roller bearings. The finished, operating weight for the SW10s was 251,200 pounds."

 

#96 (originally #1243) as retained by the Union Pacific as part of their heritage fleet, where it served as the steam shop switcher in Cheyenne. It was finally retired in 2014 and subsequently donated to the Oregon Rail Heritage Center in Portland, OR, where it is displayed today. The engine remains operable and sees some occasional use.

Wikipedia:

Una pin-up és una fotografia o un altre tipus d'il · lustració d'una noia en actitud suggerent o fins i tot, només que amb un somriure, saludant o mirant a la càmera fotogràfica, que sol figurar en les portades de revistes, comic-books o calendaris , etc. A les models que posen per aquestes obres se les anomena pin-up girls. En l'actualitat (principis del segle XXI), són generalment models fotogràfics, actrius de cinema, cantants o models d'alta costura o prêt-à-porter, sent poc freqüent que una pin-up es dediqui exclusivament a això.

El terme anglès cheesecake (literalment "pastís de formatge") és un sinònim de pin-up. L'ús més antic del terme cheesecake amb aquest significat està documentat l'any 1934, però es va popularitzar uns 20 anys més tard, amb la frase (referint-se a una dona maca) better than a cheesecake (millor que un pastís de formatge). El seu equivalent masculí són els Beefcake (pastís de carn).

En general, les imatges de pin-up no es consideren pornogràfiques, i, en l'actualitat, (principis de segle XXI), només són censurades en alguns països, majoritàriament, integristes islàmics. En alguns països on la majoria de la població és musulmana, les fotografies de pin-up figuren a l'última pàgina dels diaris, en lloc de a la primera, perquè no estiguin a la vista dels transeútes quan estan exposats per a la venda , per considerar-ho més conforme amb la moral, usos i costums locals.

Betty Grable's famous pin-up photo

A pin-up girl, also known as a pin-up model, is a model whose mass-produced pictures see wide appeal as popular culture. Pin-ups are intended for informal display, e.g. meant to be "pinned-up" on a wall. Pin-up girls may be glamour models, fashion models, or actresses.

The term pin-up may also refer to drawings, paintings, and other illustrations done in emulation of these photos (see the list of pin-up artists). The term was first attested to in English in 1941; however, the practice is documented back at least to the 1890s.

The pin-up images could be cut out of magazines or newspapers, or be from postcard or chromo-lithographs, and so on. Such photos often appear on calendars, which are meant to be pinned up anyway. Later, posters of pin-up girls were mass-produced and became an instant hit.

I spotted this Chevrolet pick up on my travels last week. It was parked in someones front garden and looks like it's in good condition. I'm guessing it dates from around 1954 / 55.
