Just one of several interesting escalator tunnels while exploring the Seattle Public Library. This amazing, unique building is kind of the culmination of all that is strange and wonderful about Seattle's civic embrace of modern art. One of the weirder areas here, which I have yet to figure out how to properly capture with a camera, is an entire floor comprised of no straight or right angled walls and completely bathed in shiny red from floor to ceiling. It's that kind of eye melting red that causes all digital cameras to quiver in fear. :)
UP stack train from last night rolling past Loring and the the remnants of a 20+ car pileup that happened a few weeks back. The cars have been sitting there long enough now that the weeds have grown up around them. I'd venture to say they might still be there when the snow starts to fly. It's a real crying shame that the derailment didn't take out some more trees along the ROW.

We discovered this old, abandoned farm near here recently. Two men were standing in the driveway and we asked if we could take some pictures. With their OK, we started working our way back through the property. Back behind the empty house, and the falling down barn, we found this old 40's or 50's era Chevrolet dump truck.
The truck's back tires were sunk deep into the earth while the front end was blocked up to keep it from sinking away. I was looking into the sun when I took five exposures at varying exposures that later were blended into a HDR shot in NIK HDR Efex Pro 2. Then, I ran it through NIK Color Efex Pro 4 and got it the way I wanted it to look.
About HDR shots: I like them. I like the realistic ones and the ones that are over the top. I did push this one a bit towards over the top---but I like the way it pops. HDR is a great tool for getting the exposure correct under wide dynamic range situations---like this one.
I made this image with my Pentax K5 and Pentax 18-135 lens.
Camera settings: ISO 900, aperture f/9, focal length18mm

An unfortunate pile on due to excessive exuberance, since a young black morph was injured and bled a bit. Guess we need to be more careful. Kind of a tough meet up. Another (red), morph got roughed up and bit and had to be given a new suit, and yet another had an epileptic seizure. But ultimately, it all went well.
And lots of drinking and socialism at the pub.

Moving up the image is going down the steps. : )

We rarely subject him to dressing up. Like any boy his age, his job is to resist and complain.
He's also definitely not a serious guy but the 'tude he sports is all about giving me flack about taking his photo.
I love how grown up he looks, yet it sends a twinge of sadness about just how short childhood is. Sigh. I'm just thankful he's young for his age so there's plenty of time...
Union Pacific Railroad GP30 854 at Galva, Illinois on August 26, 1966, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. This was the eastbound CGI (Chicago Grand Island) CB&Q - UP pooled power between the named cities, although on this date the UP was supplying all the power.
Different kind of make-up.. more a smoky kind of thing.. but not quite.
Oh and do you think the purple lips are noticeable??
Never say there is never a prototype for something, all the line changes through the years at Dry Lake has the siding all jacked up. Too bad the old water tower is gone, not the same here without it....

“After that, dad didn't do as many scavenging runs any more. He didn't go out again for another week while he was recovering. We just took it easy for the while. Eventually, he felt up to it to start going out again to scavenge...always bringing the shotgun with him. He never ran into trouble again though. After hearing what he had to do that day I sometimes wonder how many other times he had to take someone’s life out here…
.....
Um. Anyway. Again, the months and years shifted by, and eventually next thing I knew I was coming up to being an adult. I was growing into the strong, independent women my dad wanted me to. But...hmp…I still acted like the little girl I grew up as, and-heheh…a lot of times that meant not really thinking things through…"

*KNOCK-KNOCK*
*CRI-…CRINK!*
Cristy - “Hey, dad.”
- “Hey ho-…heh...wwhat-haha! Did, you do to your hair?”
*KA-TSH!*
Cristy - “You like it? I saw some styles in that magazine you’d found a while ago and thought it'd be fun to try colouring. Also gave instructions on how to do it. Y’know, something new.”
- “Yeah, but…how exactly did you dye it? Where’d you even get the dye from?”
Cristy - “I was looking through the storage room and I found some hidden away; that was actually what gave me the idea in the first place. No clue what it was even doing in there though.”
- “Eh, there’s plenty of stuff hiding away in there, some of it was put in there before any of this even started.”
Cristy - “So do you like it?”
- “Heh, it looks nice. It goes well with that haircut I gave you last week.”
Cristy - “Thanks dad.”
- “But…wait, don’t you need water for that?”
Cristy - “Well…with all the rain you've been saying we've had, I was assuming we’d have some to spare from the supply. I only tried to use as little as I could.”
- “*sigh*, you know how valuable that water is, it should only be used for necessities. You really should have asked me first.”
Cristy - “Sorry...”
- “But, you did try to conserve the amount you used, so that’s good."
The Weston, NE post office is experiencing a lull in activity as the silence of the scene is briefly interrupted by the passing Lincoln turn. By this time, the morning clouds had returned and I headed for home.

Elephants- enormous, intelligent, strong and sociable. A male African elephant can weigh up to 7.5 tons! They have long and flexible noses, large flapping ears, and loose, wrinkly skin.
There are two elephant species that are usually recognized: the African elephant and the Asian elephant.
- African elephants have large ears that are shaped like the continent of Africa, both males and females have visible tusks, their skin is very wrinkly. their back is swayed, and the end of their trunk works as if they have two fingers there to help them pick things up. African elephants are the largest mammals on land.
- Asian elephants have smaller ears, and one finger at the end of their trunk..
*The African elephant is threatened by habitat loss, illegal hunting for its ivory, and Classified as Vulnerable (A2a ver 3.1 )on the 2008 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
**The Asian elephant is Classified as Endangered (A2c ver 3.1) on the 2008 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species.
