I have on occasion been on the road and thought I’d share some photos of what I saw along the way. Photos by me, though on rare occasions I might accidentally post one taken by a family member but that got on my phone. #Photography

I’ve posted a version of this shot before, but this time I’m posting a much wider shot to get some more of the rocks out at sea. Oregon Coast #photography #RockinTuesday #TidesOutTuesday #ColorADay #BlueTue

I was getting carried away with posting too many things for yestersday's #Transportation theme, so I decided to keep this one for #Stunday where I think it fits in perfectly. Amsterdam, Netherlands #Photography

Cars are arugably the least efficient mode of transportation (not including short haul flights and private jets), but also the most ubiquitous. Almost everyone would agree with these two statements 1) too many cars on the road 2) don't take mine #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #transportation

Did you know that you can take a free cruise in the New York Harbor? See Governor's Island, lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, Ellis Island, Statue of Liberty, and worn out commuters; all for free. The Staten Island Ferry has been running for over 200 years. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #transportation

Subway cars out of Space 1999 or Babylon 5. The Glasgow subway is nearly 130 years old and is the 3rd oldest in the world. Even older than the NYC subway. I'm thinking they've had some work done. Glasgow, Scotland #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #transportation #ArchForma

Morgantown, West Virginia's PRT. Personal Rapid Transit. Go to any station and it will take you directly to the station you wanted to go to. Skipping other stations. Thus the P in PRT. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #transportation

While cars may not cross here the bridge in downtown Wheeling, West Virginia is still available to the most ancient method of transit: walking... albeit perhaps not legally. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow #transportation

Excited about today's theme of #transportation, because if there is one thing I have a lot of photos of, is methods of transportation. Here's a special subway train in NYC. It's the maintenance train. #Photography #BlueSkyArtShow

2/2 Just a little bit later in the evening... no longer a "long exposure" but rather the iPhones night mode, which is, um, a long exposure. Booton, NJ #WaterfallWednesday #Photography

Maybe not the best photo, but I like it because it was the best of many attempts. I have this climbing #rose that has gotten to be about 12 feet or more up. This budding flower was way up there, it was windy and I was zoomed in 12x on my iPhone. #RedWed #ColorADay #RoseWednesday #Photography

Genesee Falls, ‎Letchworth State Park, Portageville, NY I feel I should mention this park is in Wyoming County (which predates the state of Wyoming by almost 50 years). #Stunday #Photography

Bannerman Castle, Beacon, NY If traveling down the Hudson River you many occasionally see an island, but it is a rare island that features the remains of the castle. Rarer still a castle that was really just a gunpowder warehouse. #Photography #Stunday
