Just made #6 on explore !
I've been a tad busy of late with the added bonus of working in London all week, meaning a longer commute than usual. This means I've been unable to take many photos even though I've been carrying my G9 around with me every day.
On my commute I pass Charing Cross station, which is just a mess of lines and tiles - a very harsh enviroment and certainly not that welcoming. It does make for some rather nice black and white geometric shots. I'll be passing through again after the weekend so will have another go.
29th May 2018:
Dull and miserable again today. Saw this snail climbing up the wall, knew how it felt and grabbed a shot.
Couldn't even sit outside in the garden doing my puzzle this afternoon, too much damp in the air.
Better viewed large and thank you for your favourites. :O)
A pair of UP Tier IV GEEZ leads a pair of CSX GEVO's east on a double stack train at the big curve at Lenape. Not going to be able to shoot here much longer with that sun slowly creeping back north on the horizon. in 3 months we'll be shooting Westbound trains from the other side of the track in the evening.
A UP passenger deadhead heads south out of Bellevue on the Falls City Sub towards Kansas City and points beyond.
Looking the other way at flag barn with the UP 7804 East coming up to the intermediate signal at 24.5.

The daily transfer switching cars at the Dave Evans transload facility in the North End of Superior.
Thanks to a timely heads up from Cade I was able to sneak out and nab UP 1988 as it rolled east on the Kansas Sub this AM.
UP 1996 is on the point of the M SCWCW 20 as it heads compass south under the endangered Santa Fe searchlights at Rana.
Showing details of the stamens and pistil. These pictures were taken during a Creative Close up Photography workshop at the University of Michigan Matthaei Botanical Gardens.
Friendly wave from the conductor trying to get a little fresh air in the cab on this transfer run from the Lesperance Yard in St. Louis down to Dupo, Illinois in August 2008.

Union Pacific C41-8 #9471 leads a pair of Chicago & North Western SD60's, #8029 with an Opeartion Lifesaver logo and #8003 in Zito yellow along with UP ex-MOP B23-7 #131 Southbound at Coal creek Jct. in Sept. of 1995.
Burlington Northern's Gillette Road switcher is seen in the background. Not sure how good those buffer flat cars would protect the engine and caboose in case of an explosion:}
This is from a place called "Jons Kapell" on Bornholm, which is a small Danish island just south of Sweden.
There were quite a lot of tourists there when I shot this, but I managed to find a nice angle and take shots when the people were out of the way.
I've been to Bornholm at least once per year my entire life, but I'd never been to Jons Kapell before. It was a long walk down many, many steps - and so the trip back up was pretty tiresome - but man was it worth it! Amazing view down there. Just one of Bornholm's hidden gems.

...what is really going on here is SOOOO much more complicated. See, the Autobots are actually making a subtle yet strategic advance on the clueless Decepticons. The battle rages on.
With Sarah going barefoot for the entire vacation, it really did open up some cool possibilities with the foot tattoos. This was just from the first day, I did a whole lot more on her legs and arms that night. I liked the symbols a lot more, but the circuitry looked pretty decent after I added to it that evening. Imagine how cool this stuff would have looked if I could actually draw!
A sucker hole opened just in the nick of time to get some partial sunlight on the big new EMD on the point of an OPPD North Omaha Station coal load. They are running down the hill on the BNSF to shove through Gibson Yard and up along the Missouri River to the plant.

All I could think of was some entertainer (athlete, musician, emcee, etc.) trying to stoke up a crowd.
One of the gems from earlier this week was catching a very clean rebuilt low number board and winged GE AC4400CW on the point of a manifest train at flag barn. One of 2 great looking units that were running back to back. Almost felt like the UP of old for about 30 minutes.
UP Southbound Local Freight Train passing through Brumley, Ar. with a pair of GP60's in charge with the lead unit UP 1900 still in D&RGW ( Rio Grande ) paint followed by an SP GP60, both patch jobs, but the lead GP60 UP 1900 lost its UP Shield Logo either by pressure washing or someone removing it, but I wasn't complaining, I'm quite happy the Rio Grande lettering wasn't blocked out in some way
UP's Spirit of the Union Pacific was also on hand for Train Days this year. Thank you to Steve Glischinski and Jeff Terry for organizing this year's night shoot!
