^Beautiful! I love Italy--especially Rome. 

[A Nonny Moose 8,262]

Ah, Italia.  It's on my bucket list but the nearest I've been is Biarriz, France.  When you are there next, get a picture of the Arch of Titus (Tito).  It is reputed to be built using the gold from the Temple of Solomon.

Rome... probably the most beautiful city in the world

Here some seasonal pictures:

Aha, you went for a walk in the beautiful Sonian Forest! I love it, so close to Brussels. Nice pictures!

I figured I'd give this thread a bump , pulled out the old camera today and took a couple of pictures .

 

Crocus don't know it is the day after Christmas .

 

Forsythia seems confused too .

 

And I couldn't leave out the Daffodils .

 

 

And a view from off the front porch , I know it is a little dark . But it is a tad gloomy today . If the weather stays this way much longer , the flowers will be blooming and the trees will be growing leaves . 

I thought I would give a picture of some snow for those that didn't get to see any for Christmas and missed it , sorry it isn't yesterday .

A look at the street in front of my house , as you can see it was this past March .

It's been way too warm for December.  Thanks for sharing.

@Easy Bakes Cool pics , must be a decent camera . Sparrows and red tailed hawks I see all the time . I got to see a bald eagle a couple years ago at about 10 yards . Wished I had a camera on me then , they're pretty big . 

   Now when I'm out and about , I'll have to carry that old camera I have with me .

Is that a brown shrike?

 

[Drack 616]

@Easy Bakes I'm no bird watcher or an expert in them, but i wiki'd it and find that Brown Shrikes are also found here, so maybe it is!

Oh speaking of birds, i have a handful! i can name a few (taken from the airport while waiting for aircraft):

Brahminy Kite

A flock of Chestnut Munias

I dunno, maybe you can identify

This one too, along the perimeter fence

Another Brahminy Kite doing a low pass on the runway!

You shoot Birds of Metal? I photograph Horses of Iron! (Railroad photography for those who don't know what an Iron Horse is slang for.)

Here's my RPnet account - http://www.railpictures.net/DavidH66/

Here's the photos I have up on there (I have thousands more here, but they are mostly roster shots and several of them were taken from moving vehicles.)

 

[Drack 616]

@DavidDHetzel beautiful photos! and the site is pretty similar to Jetphotos as well.

i'll share my works then.

[DavidDHetzel 1,816]

@Drack, I think they're sister sites. Also I used to live near the Airport for Knoxville,TN and would see all sorts of planes fly in. I didn't have a goo camera at the time though so I never could get anything that would be allowed on a site like that.

My favorite Airplane I ever photographed had to be a diverted Northwestern A330 that I think was flying from Paris to Atlanta and ended up diverting to Knoxville.

 

Not a good shot, but here it is

Often, great circle flights between North America and Europe wind up with emergency landing for one reason or another at Montreal or Gander.  Be glad it is not Moscow.  I think we are more hospitable here in the frozen north. 

Spoiler

[<side note> Ask the people who were caught in the no landing situation during the 9/11 panic. </side note>]

If there's super bad weather in Atlanta they'll sometimes divert down to Knoxville and that was always a nice diversion from all the region jets we get in Knoxville, especially the couple of times we got Air France 777s.

I think I took that photo right after the Delta/Northwestern Merger. I assume it was actually a Delta flight. I think it came from Rome IIRC not Paris as I had mentioned.

This is a shot for pessimists

I have loads of photos people might be interested to see, but perhaps I should instead share with you my video diaries from around the world? There's loads of them on my YouTube.

Here's a recent one from the US:

A Union Pacific locomotive in eastern Tennessee?  I've seen Norfolk Southern locomotives around Fort Worth.  I wonder if Union Pacific and Norfolk Southern share trains and locomotives.

Speaking of iron horses, here is Union Pacific locomotive 844, the only steam locomotive never to have been retired:

And metal birds, this is B-29 Fifi, the only flyable one of its kind:

Boats:

And cars, such as this 1936 Rolls-Royce 25/30:

I've gotten birds of the feathered kind as well:

Feeling nostalgic today.  This is my last boat taken by a yacht club friend during a sail past.  Whole family is aboard.
