A Beneteau 40.7 maneuvers under sail in the tight confines of the itchen river in Southampton Whenever I see people on a sailing boat on the water on a warm day, I have a pang of jealousy I'm not with them. #photography
Two NS SD40e helpers race to their next job. They are based in Altoona, and help shove the heavy freight consists up the hills near Horseshoe Curve, PA. Canon 6D, ef 50 1.8 #photography #trains
A couple of Andalucian village scenes. Steep steps, and flowers on the window sills, all under a clear blue sky. The sweat from the climb is usually worth it. #photography #travel
Wawel Castle, Krakow, December 2009. This was on my birthday, and I remember being freezing cold (-20C!) and seeing this from the banks of the Wistula, so I set my camera on the wall and let grabbed a picture. The barge thing in the foreground is a shame but I like the mood. #photography
Tatra Mountains, Poland 2009. Near Zakopane. A Summer hiking in the hills is time well spent. Canon EOS 20D, efs 18-55 w/polariser. #photography
The Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth, 2005. Really clear March day. #photography

Las Vegas, late 2018. I took a walk around the strip just after sunset, before it got really busy. I like the little splash of light in the the sky in this picture. #Photography
At the other end of the train, leading it back from Frostbugh is another Dash 8, this one in the WM livery. Behind it sits the generator car, as I don't think the dash 8 can typically run passenger cars as it is a freight loco. #Photography #trains.
An ex Norfolk Southern Dash 8 waits in Cumberland MD to lead the scenic railroad service this morning. It's a two hour ride, out and back. Very relaxing. #Photography #trains
You have to give it a gallon of blood every hour

Chances are high you know Samuel Barber's beautiful classical piece Adagio for Strings. It has been used in several films, including Platoon.
But not as many people know that there's also a choral variation, called Agnus Dei. Personally, I think that's even more beautiful. Listening to it always gives me goosebumps. Turn up the volume, close your eyes and enjoy...

I understand how the money works in motorsport. Be that as it may, this #Indycar even feels vulgar to me. Racing at an ultra-rich country club for a purse seems like something from ancient times. It's ugly. Something similar also killed Dan Wheldon, so there is that.
FOSS, motorbikes, and photography.
