Trying on Great-Grandmother's clothes and trinkets, such fun for a five year old!
As you can see, slid to black and white, which is a challenge for me, I usually can't resist colour.

First light is best light. Prove me wrong.
UP 6255 makes great time rolling eastbound at MP 24.25 on the UP Kansas Sub just after sunrise. This train wasted no time from getting from Grantville to here and the 500mm focal length does an excellent job of making things look good here.
And the view doesn't suck. Fresh off the subway when I saw this. I spent the rest of the day with this song stuck in my head.

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.
A typical upskirt shot, 1950s style. Found in Ohio. Other photos found with this one are of a happy couple enjoying a picnic outing. Very risque for the time period, especially since they were likely commercially developed at the local drugstore.
The hiss on the audio is from an FX or compressor, and the audio comes from this Youtube clip circa 2018:

The 2000's have perhaps seen some of the best music arriving from high level partnerships: Yael Naim and David Donatien, Olivia Merilahti and Dan Levy standing out alongside the occasionally permanent fixture of Leslie Feist and Chilly Gonzales - here vocal range and expression (pretty awe inspiring) in conjunction with his musical virtuosity, imagination for tone and sheer intelligence. In the original clip, its worth seeing how Feist's body 'lives' the sound from her vocal as Gonzales look to find the maximum space to both frame and then lead the fragile tune. The importance of resonance and phrasing perhaps being akin to the photographer's poetic search for lens effects.
Fiest's work with constructed 'moments' of natural dance skills remain visual highlights from the last decades:

Her attention to high level folk stitching is also greatly appreciated.
The footage was taken behind the Ebro and is of a shaft of light from an oculos inside an artificial cave. The dust was from the 'natural' floor and can be seen rising in the thermals.

This drawbridge has me irked lately! It has been closed for most of the the summer for repairs. And it 's now been stuck in the up position for the past of couple weeks. Meanwhile, I never see any work being done on it. The Bascuale Bridge connects the west side & east side of Lorain. We live walking distance from this bridge on the west side of town. We used to regularly drive over this bridge to Lakeside Marina and the Lorain lighthouse area (2 minute drive). Now we have to take a 20 minute detour over the Henderson bridge to get to the other side of town; or to head into Cleveland and the suburbs. Many businesses near this bridge are losing a good deal of revenue as a result of this closure.
I'll continue to deal for the next couple of months until it re-opens. And since it has become more difficult to go & take photos of the Lorain Lighthouse, I figured I'd snap a photo of this bridge after the sunset instead.
Washed up, the remains of Ham Harbour have taken quite a battering over the last few weeks.

A male Downy woodpecker perched on a metal feeder rail and looking up toward the sky. I took a short road trip yesterday to a local wildlife reserve. It was absolutely frigid (15f) and my stay lasted only about an hour as my hands were quite numb after this time.
Image was taken at the Pennypack Ecological Reserve Trust in Montgomery County, PA. I will be posting a few images from here over the course of the next week.
Comments welcome. Enjoy the (snow) day!
