One of the charter participants requested a little black smoke as it was a warm evening, i don't think anyone expected this much or that we would be photting a crab in crimson lake livery in 2016
The aftermath of the EF4 tornado that wiped out a good portion of the rural areas of Douglas and Leavenworth County can clearly be seen with all of the mangled trees here as this train works around the curve coming up on MP 31 on the UP Kansas Sub.
This was the first time I've popped the drone up in this location and I think I will be back and scoping out a couple other shots I've found on Google Earth.
On or two of you wanted to see a standing up version of this outfit and so it here it is.
It is very nice but my other half did like to point out that my backside is visible when following me upstairs!
Thanks love I won't be wearing these again while you are about or any one else for that matter lol

Dressing up fun with Mum, even if the costume only consists of a pair of comedy glasses :)
Apologies for my lack of flickring this week, am working 12 hour days on a photo-shoot and it leaves no time for much else. Will probably end up shooting 5,000+ pictures this week and may not get to share any on here until they are finally used in ads and brochures etc. But hopefully September and October will have a bit more time for shooting land and cloudscapes for fun again!

Still not the best as I think... neither the eyes.
Need to redo again but I'm happy that I improve my DD face-up skill.
But I need more time.... T.T
Montana Rail Link's M-LAUMIS1-18 crawls up Bozeman Pass west of Livingston, Montana. Two new SD70ACe's and a GP35 headed for Logan, leads the manifest freight. A rather large plume of smoke is rising above the area from a pretty nasty forest fire south of Livingston. Thankfully the wind was blowing the smoke way from where the train was heading.
For the first time in years, my Canon 300mm L prime is working as intended after finally getting around to having the long running focusing issues repaired. With the Colchester Canon repair centre now closed it had to be sent away and after two months it's back and this F-15 was the first aircraft I have tried it on. Appears to be working okay!
#AlphaTrainingRecap: Hier je vous parlais de l'intérieur de la Station, aujourd'hui on en sort. Les sorties extravéhiculaires sont des moments emblématiques des missions dans l’espace. Pendant quelques heures, on devient soi-même son propre vaisseau spatial ! Mais ce sont loin d'être des promenades de santé pour autant. Chaque EVA (pour Extra Vehicular Activities) demande énormément de préparation, de la part des équipes au sol et pour nous à bord. Il faut apprendre les gestes techniques bien sûr, écrire et vérifier un grand nombre de procédures normales et anormales (pour parer à toutes les éventualités), mais aussi entretenir, adapter et préparer les combinaisons et les équipements, s'assurer que les scaphandres sont étanches (très important !), les enfiler (et aider son partenaire à les enfiler), et enfin mettre à l'épreuve en conditions réelles l'entraînement reçu en piscine 🏊

#AlphaTrainingRecap: Yesterday I talked about training in the interior of the International Space Station, today we go outside. A lot of our training time was spent on EVAs, or Extra Vehicular Activities, or spacewalks for you and me. From checking spacesuit sizes to ensuring they are airtight (very important!) to the procedures of putting them on and helping Aki put them on and finally putting all of the training to the test in the pool. We don't think of going outside as a walk in the park!

UP 3094 leads a double stack train past the handiwork of the UP earlier this summer when they put about 20+ cars of manifest on the ground here at Loring including 6 haz-mat tankers. We are now a couple months removed from that and the pile of freight cars remains right where the derailment contractor left them.
It's a pity that they didn't wipe out a few more trees here. It would be a pretty neat shot if about 3-4 of the big cottonwoods that are here ceased to exist. As a matter of fact, the whole curve at Krieder is about fully overgrown to the point that it might not be a decent photo spot much longer.
Bumper cars (or dodgems) piled up having been stored for winter. Now spring is here, they have been uncovered in preparation for the coming tourist season.
Bumper cars (US English) or dodgems (British English) is the generic name for a type of flat ride consisting of several small electric cars which draw power from the floor and/or ceiling, and which are turned on and off remotely by an operator. They are also known as bumping cars and dashing cars'.
Although the idea of the ride is to bump other cars, safety-conscious (or at least litigation-conscious) owners sometimes put up signs reading "This way around" and "No (head on) bumping." Depending on the level of enforcement by operators, these rules are often ignored by bumper car riders, especially younger children and teenagers.
This is what happens when you get greedy and try to push a shot despite having the best intel that you can get. I wanted to setup further back on the curve and shoot this eastbound SD70AH-T4 looking down the tracks with the elevator in the background. That shot didn't happen because as I was climbing the embankment...he was blowing for the crossing at Midland so I had to settle for a hand grab shot as it rounded the curve.
Should have stayed at Alexander or went to the depot.
