She used to stop on that bench with the illusion
That behind her the sunset wasn't just a colored wall of orange-red sun
The tree next door with its autumn leaves
A magical touch of a children's book
The leaves fell silently on the bench
And on the ground creating a colorful carpet of light
There wasn't much traffic along that stretch of road
And that's exactly why he chose her
No passerby would have sat next to her,
no car would disturb his thoughts
but now she's not here and the tree and the bench wonder why
there will be no answers
there will be no other days
harmony is shaken by a shiver of wind
another trembling leaf has fallen
everything is silent now on that stretch of road...
A use for the wide angle lens (10mm). Never been able to catch more than half this scene without stitching before. But it is taking some getting used to.
Here used on a shell.
Happy Smile on Saturday

Used to do a lot of HDR. now very rarely. Think it is the difference between this d300 and my d800.
Found this it had never been processed from archives.
First used normal oil painting effect at 70%. Had planned to crop, but really enjoyed the surrounding foliage so decided against it. Finished by enclosing in the film strip 6 frame, which also darkened some of the photo corners. Located in my neighbor K’s rose garden.
So this is new to me...blogging horses...I used to sell and breed them here in sl...now that story is way too long for flickr and it might put you to sleep so let's just stick to the point...These horses and all the accessories that go with them are really fun!

Used to spend my nights out in a barroom
Liquor was the only love that I'd ever known
But, see, you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom
Brought me back from bein' too far gone
You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
Honey, I stay stoned on your love all the time

Golden hour photography uses the soft, warm, diffused light just after sunrise or before sunset, creating a magical, flattering glow with long shadows and rich red/gold tones due to the low sun angle filtering light through more atmosphere.
It's ideal for portraits and landscapes, adding depth and a dreamy quality.
Not quite the same in black and white.
Shooting in black and white during the golden hour
shifts focus from warm colours to light, shadow, texture, and mood, creating dramatic, high-contrast images with long shadows and ethereal light, emphasising form and emotion over hue, and often revealing timeless, classic compositions.

Using a former Cotton Belt GP40-2 and a former Mo-Pac GP38-2, UP train YFX80R-02 eases down the middle of State Line Rd in the West Bottoms with two pulls from Cargill Nutrena. They'll add these to the rest of their pulls at UP's State Line Yard and eventually drag them all back to UP's Quindaro Yard at the Fairfax District.
This is the only true remaining stretch of street running in Kansas City, and as the road's name implies, it runs right down the state line. This job out of Fairfax comes over here to switch at least twice a week. 5/3/23.

La città di Shanghai, situata sul fiume Huangpu presso il delta del Chang Jiang, è la più popolosa città della Repubblica Popolare Cinese e la città più popolosa del mondo.
Shanghai è vista come capitale economica della Cina.
Grazie allo sviluppo dei passati decenni, Shanghai è un centro economico, finanziario, commerciale e delle comunicazioni di primaria importanza della Repubblica Popolare Cinese. Il suo porto, il primo del Paese, è uno dei più trafficati al mondo con Singapore e Rotterdam. Nel 2010 ha superato Singapore come volume di traffico.
Per quanto concerne l'estensione superficiale, quindi la vera grandezza di una città, è la terza realtà più grande del mondo, inferiore soltanto alla sua connazionale cinese Pechino, che la supera di oltre 2 volte e alla seconda classificata Tsingtao, quasi il suo doppio.
I maestosi edifici lungo il Bund, la magnifica passeggiata di circa 1 Km e mezzo regala una vista mozzafiato sullo skyline di Shanghai: il Pudong (a est del fiume Pu). “L’isola” di Pudong è l’area più moderna della città: è proprio qui che troverete i palazzi più famosi e imponenti, come ad esempio la Jinmao Tower, il World Financial Center e l’Oriental Pearl Tower che sono considerati la massima rappresentazione dell’architettura moderna mondiale, nonché espressione dello sviluppo della città negli ultimi 100 anni.

En la fotografía se puede ver el volcán Inacaliri (5.545 msnm).
El cerro Inacaliri, también conocido como cerro Cajón o del Cajón, se ubica en la frontera entre Bolivia y Chile, al sureste de los más conocidos San Pedro y San Pablo. Al lado chileno se encuentra el retén de carabineros del mismo nombre, desde donde es fácil ascender esta cumbre. Para llegar a él hay que dirigirse a Ollagüe, desde Calama, y luego internarse hacia los mencionados San Pedro y San Pablo; hacia el sureste se encuentra el Inacaliri, en el borde fronterizo.
El Inacaliri posee cuatro puntas rocosas que forman una corona alrededor de su cumbre, rodeando una extensa laguna que se ubica en medio.

CD 302 Hemingray power insulators still in service use in Ohio after more then 100 years of service duty. It is extremely rare to see large colored glass pintype power insulators still in service use today.
CD 302 insulators are a moderate size power insulator that were produced by the Hemingray Glass Company in Muncie, Indiana. They were produced from c1893 to 1920 for use on early power distribution with a voltage rating of 40,000 volts. CD 302 insulators are known as the "Muncie" style insulator, although some have the Ohio embossing on the reverse side instead of Muncie Type.
This shot shows three in service with all three having the Ohio embossing on the reverse side. All insulators have the Hemingray / Patent May 2ND 1893 on the front embossing.
Looks like there was a break in the wire at one time. See in note.

De la majestuosidad, belleza y frialdad del Matterhorn o Cervino, vamos a la calidez de un atardecer veneciano por excelencia. Cada vivencia en esta mágica ciudad es única e irrepetible, no importa cuantas veces la visitemos... siempre se tiene la sensación de que es la primera vez, porque nunca deja de sorprendernos muy gratamente...
-----------------------------------------
From the majesty, beauty and coldness of Matterhorn or Cervine, we turn to the warmth of a quintessential Venetian sunset. Each experience in this magical city is unique and unrepeatable, no matter how many times you visit ... always have the feeling that it is the first time, because it never fails to surprise very pleasantly...

Il lago Kunmin si trova a 25 Km da Pechino nel luogo dove nella seconda metà del 1800 è stato realizzato dall'imperatrice cinese Cixi quello che poi sarà chiamato "Il Palazzo d'Estate".
Il suo nome potrebbe far pensare ad una sontuosa residenza con centinaia di camere ed enormi saloni, sullo stile delle regge europee. Ma il Palazzo d’Estate, dichiarato dall'UNESCO "Patrimonio dell'Umanità", è soprattutto uno splendido parco (uno dei quattro più belli dell'intera Cina) in cui l’arte del giardino cinese raggiunge una delle sue massime espressioni.
I suoi panorami sembrano usciti da un dipinto di epoca classica: dalla sponda del lago Kunming, che copre i tre quarti della superficie del parco, si intravedono templi, ponti e pagode, alcuni immersi nel verde ed altri aggrappati alla collina. Se il cielo è limpido ( e non lo è spesso...), mettete in programma almeno una mezza giornata per visitare il Palazzo d’Estate, in modo da avere un’ora libera per rilassarvi su un prato o per fare un giro in battello sul lago.
I pechinesi si recano qui soprattutto durante i mesi estivi, quando l’afa del centro di Pechino è insopportabile, e per loro una giornata al Palazzo d’Estate equivale a una gita fuori porta.

There are certainly countless motifs that can be used to symbolize the new beginning of a year. A sunrise outside in nature (in this case on the Hoher Schneeberg in the Elbe Sandstone Mountains) is my favorite.
In both cases we are on a path that leads us into a new phase of life. A path that is only known to us to a certain extent and where a big surprise (or challenge) can be waiting for us around the next bend.
Now you could object that a day is just a day and in comparison a year must be much more significant. I would like to show you why I don't quite see it that way.
On the one hand, this assessment is based on our standards, which are based on a human life. If we look at it from the perspective of the lifespan of the universe, a year is just as insignificant as a day (basically the effects of neither are noticeable).
On the other hand, a single day, a single decision is enough to fundamentally change our own world in every conceivable direction.
So what if we didn't wait for a specific date every year to realize where we want to go, but could use every single day of the year to do so?
Our creative possibilities would increase many times over and we would have so much more room for directional corrections. We could learn, try things out and gain experience without having to ask the fundamental question every time.
With this in mind, I wish you all a good start and an exciting and fulfilling journey.
Because today is the first day of the rest of all of our lives.
Es gibt ganz sicher unzählige Motive, mit denen man den Neubeginn eines Jahres symbolisieren kann. Ein Sonnenaufgang draußen in der Natur (in diesem Fall auf dem Hohen Schneeberg im Elbsandsteingebirge) ist mein Favorit.
In beiden Fällen befinden wir uns auf einem Weg, der uns in einen neuen Lebensabschnitt führt. Ein Weg, der uns nur bis zu einem gewissen Grad bekannt ist und auf dem hinter der nächste Kurve eine große Überraschung (oder auch Herausforderung) auf uns warten kann.
Jetzt könntet Ihr einwenden, dass ein Tag ja nur ein Tag ist und im Vergleich dazu ein Jahr doch viel bedeutender sein muss. Ich möchte Euch aufzeigen, warum ich das nicht ganz so sehe.
Zum einen fusst diese Einschätzung auf unsere auf ein Menschenleben ausgerichteten Masstäbe. Betrachten wir das ganze aus Sicht der Lebensspanne des Universums ist ein Jahr genau so unbedeutetend wie ein Tag (im Grunde sind die Auswirkungen beider nicht spürbar).
Andererseits genügt ein einziger Tag, eine einzige Entscheidung um unsere eigene Welt grundlegend zu verändern und das in jede nur denkbare Richtung.
Wie wäre es also, wenn wir nicht jedes Jahr auf ein spezielles Datum warten würden um uns bewusst zu machen, wohin wir gehen wollen, sondern dafür jeden einzelnen Tag des Jahres nutzen könnten?
Unsere gestalterischen Möglichkeiten würden um ein vielfaches steigen und wir hätten so viel mehr Raum für Richtungskorrekturen. Wir könnten lernen, probieren und Erfahrungen sammeln ohne jedes Mal die Grundsatzfrage stellen zu müssen.
In diesem Sinne wünsche ich Euch allen einen guten Start und eine spannende sowie erfüllende Reise.
Denn heute ist der erste Tag vom Rest unser aller Leben.

A vintage display in the middle of the country west of Milledgeville,IL. This is on the property of an Illinois centennial farm. Have a great truck Thursday all and pray for rain-no rain in my area for almost 3 weeks! Couldn't get my planting done till early June because it was too wet and it hasn't rained since.I guess you can't mess with Mother Nature! LOL
This farmer ran a local filling station for many years as well,thus the Mobil memorabilia...

This close-up photograph captures the rich textures and deep hues of assorted dried flowers, a subject that often symbolizes eternity, memory, and nostalgia. Unlike fresh blooms, dried flowers represent a beauty that endures over time, often used to signify lasting love or preserved memories.
Symbolism and Meaning Eternal Love & Resilience: Dried flowers are powerful symbols of bonds that survive the passage of time. Nostalgia: They serve as physical touchstones, capturing a moment or season frozen in time. Transformation: They embody a beauty that ages gracefully, offering a different kind of wisdom than fresh blooms.
