Dark Shadows

Our great neighbor Donna has a Maple tree that has turned a silent rust color in direct sun, I moved to the other side of the house to capture this image with the tree as the backdrop. Soon our nights turn cold and we descend below freezing, our feathered friend are finding materials for their nest to protect them all winter. Soon we move our feeding site to a higher location in the yard the Grackles and Starlings return and the Robins and Bats head south for the Winter. 

Most years the image background changes to raw tree bark or snow around Halloween here in Omaha, on our way to three or four nights this year being 25 degree's below zero.....will he make it through those nights. This spring and summer has seen an increase of our sparrow covey by !00 percent with some days requiring extra feed because of so many birds.

Let me know how I did, please leave me a comment.

Fancy Fence

This was a community project at a place called The Flying Pig just south of Algoma Wisconsin.....cool place, eccentric thinking at its finest. Children from the area were able to do anything they wanted.....shows just how creative we can be.

Have a great Sunday!!!

Road Less Traveled

Last year I took this same shot, it is my second best picture according to this smugmug community.....

The sun and shadows are quite different from last years.

Which one wins?

Stare-down with Fancy-pants

Sometimes I can't help but think the animals somehow are interested in what I am doing....this new sparrow is less than three months old yet he paused and turned to watch me shoot him.

These guys are small and fast, I'm forty eight feet away....how did I do?

 The Half Built

The siding locomotive has cleaned up the industrial area supporting bulk transportation when the half built train out of downtown Omaha Nebraska arrives to couple up the units that will complete a westbound run. On the mainline a train is clipping by at thirty miles per hour toward them. Here they have the opportunity to change crews for the run back West. Mass transit of goods to the populous 2181 is in full power grinding out the slow grade to West Omaha.

The train from where I have my tripod set up is a mile away, I am under a bridge where it is nice and dark, you can just drive right up to great locations just like this in any town America ....please don't do this at home, stay off the tracks.

Thanks to Frank Keller for the inspiration to shoot better composed train images! I know your town has that same great shot!

Loon Lake

At the entrance of Copper Falls State Park sits this lake full of color. It is starting to rain and getting very windy as the front is coming through.

Have a great day, please leave a comment.

Eastbound Freight

The right of way down by the tracks are starting to light up with Fall colors.

We spent the better part of an hour here before being escorted from the railroads property....by police.

There was some other commotion going on behind the train in this image....the next place the officer said he was going.

I've spent many hours on the tracks....never had the experience we had yesterday...some things just make you go hummmmm.

At least they didn't confiscate the card in the camera, got a few good images.....what do you think of this? 

Thanks for all your wonderful comments on the Beautiful Bridge image yesterday.....it was like finding a needle in a haystack when I found that view next to the stream.

I try to comment on all the days images....sorry if I miss yours occasionally......your images make me better!

Thanks John for the insight from your Country, I think we were in the wrong place at the wrong time. An event was happening behind the trail just off the tracks, the officer was a great guy and a great friend of mine has a son on the force so our Police are mindful people have cameras and video at their fingertips. None the less this is a busy railroad and they are working, in fact we had three past us in an hour and a lot of switching as we are at the head of a urban industrial yard or dump and a crew switch point area .....their nervous too, and you have a large lens on that camera. Omaha Nebraska is the railroad town of America, headquarters of the Union Pacific Railroad, they make our economy resilient to sharp fluctuations and take our agri- business related products to markets around the world, safely and efficiently day after day.
