There
Isn't a Train He Wouldn't Take
(as long as it's on the Isle of Wight)
by Bluebottle
Here are some photographs taken in July of the Isle
of Wight Steam Railway, operating before the nationwide ban on steam. The UK is
in a period of drought, with no rain since May, which has raised the risk of
wildfires.
About
That Lunar Eclipse…

On eclipse night, FWR managed to snag…a beautiful video
of pouring rain.

Daytime
Picture
by DG
When the shadows are like this I think of Friedrich Dürrenmatt's
description: Die Sonne schien grell und die Schatten waren wie abgezirkelt.
(The sun shone harshly and the shadows were sharply
defined.)
That man could find meaning in the everyday better than
anyone.

Steam trains and water. Makes sense. Hosepipe ban too. No wonder the fire brigade can't put out fires either. Small heath? Probably the big heath got burned down. Don't be in doubt, UK's got a drought. Ah the poetry of small things
ReplyDeleteGreat videos. Typical indeed about the Moon putting on a lovely show the day after the eclipse! Fascinating seeing the same scene from a slightly different angle! https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0Oy0i2btvml0QmbYCoZiQkQYrmU3nyCL7Bbrk0htmC7lUr2-3QncnN06lITi0HLLRhFtqZfuPkUGzfDrutcSb5MXJPh_Lot6w-gpKS5-XhA6fR8x50CHJOotTtscF3HC2U_GEYZZYuMbGI-xfcSXi3evr94eRJgcaACdaBvMhs6eBiCfM_IHmpO2eTgc9/s1600/post_SQ_full_moon_280826.jpg
