Just one of those mundane daily moments when out for a walk on this day. I like the lines with the handrail and the long slim cloud. Also contrast on the steps from dark on the left to bright on th right. A simple play with light. Within a few seconds the cloud was gone so 'had to be there to see it'. What photography is often about and what I enjoy. Good one.
That's heat dissipation distorting the signal bridge in Derry, PA, not the stink from trash train NS 62V. I was happy to telesmash the late model ACe leader and step back from the tracks before the smell of garbage came wafting through in its wake.
A few hours' mountain climbing make of a rogue and a saint two fairly equal creatures.

Climbing to the top of the rocks at Dale Junction we get a look at the entire WB trailer train heading towards the junction and then Hermosa Tunnel.
I had never seen this plant before, but my Facebook friends steered me to Clematis. This one is C. hirsutissima, known by the common name, Sugarbowls.
Wild South Africa
Kruger National Park
Critically endangered White-backed Vultures waiting for the sun to create warm-air pockets that would enable them to soar over distances of up to 150 km. They are Africa's most common large vulture, an accomplished scavenger that feeds on the carcasses of Africa's large animals.

East of Buford, Wyoming, Union Pacific's original transcontinental line utilized a convenient, natural sloping ridge in the landscape to ascend the Continental Divide. This feature was known as "The Gangplank", and is still used by the modern UP in its ascent of Sherman Hill- one of the few places where route changes over the years have not taken the rails away from their original 1860s location. In evening light, a westbound intermodal cruises up the 'plank- though this is a relatively easy grade for a what is technically a mountain railway, the power still gets a workout on the hill here with today's extremely long PSR freights.
