The fall colors are amazing in Colorado right now, but, unfortunately, I’m going to miss them this year. And it looks like a windstorm is coming tomorrow.

So, here is an F36 sunburst from the 28-200 instead. 46mm, S1RII, base ISO.

The annual Transport Heritage Expo is on this weekend in Sydney. I wandered around for a few hours with the S5ii, 24-105mm and 14-28mm.

Here are a few of the first photos I've processed.

1. Old and new locomotives. On the left is a brand new Pacific National 94 class freight locomotive (UGL Rail model C44ACi) while on the right is an XPT power car (passenger loco) which first entered service in 1982. It was possible to get into the cabs of these two locos but the queues were too long.

2. AEC Regent III bus. This double decker bus entered service in 1953 and was withdrawn in 1976. It has undergone full restoration and is now in the care of the Sydney Bus Museum who operate it on a number of event days each year.

Here’s a few from my inaugural road-trip with the Rivian. These are all from Valley of the Gods in Bears Ears (Utah). Truck glamor shots aside, Valley of the Gods is amazing if you value solitude and quietness. While you’ll never been fully alone, it can be perfectly quiet in the mornings and can give a wonderful sense of peace and solitude that are much harder to find, say, in a National Park. I went back sever times and have a few other shots to post later.

And yes, I am completely enamored with the Rivian. Of course, you have to “embrace the charge” while on road trips, but I’ve already met some very interesting people while fast-charging on the road, and at this point in my life, I like the breaks from driving anyway.
