Little orange butterfly - probably a Lycaena ottomanus, but I am not sure.

On a sunny morning a few weeks back, 920 heads north from Waikouaiti up the short but relatively steep Tumai Bank.

Wittnauer up Close one of the few watches I have found in buying odd boxes of things, this one is vintage, found in North Carolina.
When Union Pacific reactivated some of their Centennial fleet during the Summer of 1984, I was only fortunate enough to catch one leading on just three occasions. This was also the only time I witnessed two in the same train!
Union Pacific #6923, 3197, 3659, 6927 and 3647 head West at Barstow in September of 1984.
It was nice of the shop to line them up like that, but they could have made them a bit straighter for me! ;) If I could have reached I would have done it myself... =)
Have a great weekend
50mm @ f1.8
Now that we are in standard time, I needed to get up an hour earlier than last week to catch the sunrrise. On this chily morning (low 50F), there was not a single cloud or a shroud of fog to make the morning photo interesting. Had to resort back to this dead tree which was photographed back in March. You can see the sun rose over the same position, but the skies are quite different.
Hope you are doing well? There was many one of a kind events in 2020! Some good and some not so much but hey I always like to look for the bright side of things. Seeing all bridges up was quite a spectacle in many ways and a unique opportunity to see downtown looking quite different. What do you think?
The daily northbound that runs during daylight hours approaches Oaro.
Thanks to Henry O on steering duty.

From up high, the Canadian Rockies is different, with low clouds surrounding the mountains and sunset colours, I feel proud to be living in a magic kingdom like this.
SAFYRAS STORE features their New Release "FLAVI SETI" @ UP EVENT running from the 1st to the 15th of every month
I would be very interested to know if anyone can tell what’s going on with this buck. I’m pretty sure if I saw this picture I wouldn’t have a clue. Any guesses?
Another old window from the historical Carriage House at Coleman Memorial Park. Today the "Homestead" stables, known as the Carriage House (1853), stands in the center of the park.
ON/OFF - Thank you very much for visiting and commenting! Really appreciated!
Two SD70Ms bring MEWOL-26 down the Angleton Sub, having just come off the BNSF at Algoa.
This daily manifest for Brownsville, TX is great to shoot during the winter months on its way out of Houston, typically running in good light and quite often featuring decent power.
This is for Macro Monday's "Crack" theme. I'm finding these challenging, but really good to stretch the imagination & photography skills.
So this is a crack in one of the bricks on our house. Rotated horizontally for easier viewing. A couple of things this made me think about:
My wife is going to kill me because the first time I post a photo of the bricks that make our house, I post a cracked one. With a weed growing out of it. 😬
Isn't it cool the way nature takes over manmade items eventually, our house being 25 years old (this is probably more a testament to what a lazy handyman I am looking after the place). I love those old temples in Cambodia where the trees have consumed the temples. They look amazing! 😮 Must dig out some old pics of that.
Rotating the pic to horizontal made me wonder what if we lived in a horizontal world, you know if there wasn't gravity & stuff, what would humans look like? Would we be horizontal instead of standing/sitting vertically as well? Would we have 2 legs& 2 arms on the same side of the body? Would we watch TV sideways? We would look at contact's photos on Flickr laying down, in which case this photo would be the right way up. Or would it. Too hard to think about for this tired brain 🤔😵💫
Anyway I digress sorry, have a fantastic week ahead ✌😀
The Tetris Building located at 802 9th Avenue (53rd St) in the Hell's Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan.The 6-story steel and glass building was built in 2013 "up and over" a pre-existing prewar building,built in 1920.Can you imagine the loud noise those poor residents in the red building had to endure during construction.
To see the entire building look here: cleanroom.wordpress.com/category/802-9th-avenue/
The Hell's Kitchen neighborhood in Manhattan stretches from 34th St to 59th between 8th Avenue and the Hudson River.City zoning regulations limits the buildings to six stories in the area,thus generally the buildings there are older walk-up types.
There a few explanations for the Hell's Kitchen name.The name first existed in print on September 22nd,1881 where a newspaper reporter went with a police guide to investigate a multiple-murder incident at a particular tenement building on 39th St between 9th and 10th Avenues to which the reporter referred to as "Hell's Kitchen",and adding that the entire section was "probably the lowest and filthiest in the area".The most common story however traces the name to veteran police officer "Dutch Fred,the Cop" and his rookie partner.In 1881,both policemen saw a small riot on 39th St near 10th Avenue and the rookie supposedly said to Dutch Fred "This place is hell itself" and the veteran cop replied,"Hell's a warmer climate.This is Hell's Kitchen".
