The Blautopf (German for Blue Pot) is a natural spring that serves as the source of the river Blau in the karst landscape on the Swabian Jura's southern edge, in Southern Germany. It is located in the city of Blaubeuren, approximately 16 km (9.9 mi) west of Ulm and it forms the drain for the Blau cave system and feeds the river Blau. Because of its high water pressure, the spring has developed a funnel-like shape, which at its deepest point has a depth of 21 metres (69 ft). The water's peculiarly blue color, varying in intensity due to weather and flow, and is the result of physical properties of the nanoscale limestone densely distributed in the water. The particles are so small that the so-called Rayleigh scattering of light takes place, preferentially scattering the blue color in the visible light.
In hidden a corner of one of the greenhouses at Longwood I saw this pot of columbines and ranunculus sitting so prettily in the waning sun.
Believe it or not I do have a rust pot of rusted items especially for challenges like this! I used the oxidised under side of the glass jar in the background to create the orange hue.
A pair of former Milwaukee motors and a C:P Dual Flag lead 271 under stormy skies south of La Crescent, 10 years ago today. This train had broken in two a bit north of New Albin and got back on the move just in the nick of time. To this day, I've never had repeat experience with this kind of lighting.
At this point in time, the Marquette Sub was still a fairly quiet piece of railroad, with 270/271 the only pair of trains to regularly ply these rails. Although, on occasion CP would throw in an extra unit train. A decade later and this is now a vital link in the new CPKC network. Pretty amazing considering that the Milwaukee Road embargoed this route in the early 80's for 3-4 years.
It was a grey miserable day out photographing the canola fields nears Harden, NSW, so I've added a Gascoyne rainbow to add some more colour. Hopefully, this does turn into a pot of gold and is not ruined by all the recent bad weather.

Potes es un municipio de España perteneciente a la comunidad autónoma de Cantabria. Está situado en el centro de la comarca de Liébana de la cual es capital. Este Ayuntamiento limita al norte con Cillorigo de Liébana, al oeste con Camaleño, al sur con Vega de Liébana y al este con Cabezón de Liébana
Potes es conocida como la villa de los puentes (de ahí su nombre) y de las torres. De manera especial destacan la del Infantado (hoy sede de exposiciones) y la de Orejón de la Lama, ambas del siglo XV.
El conjunto de barrios de la parte antigua conserva un gran sabor popular y mucho encanto; sus callejuelas y caserones (la mayoría con blasones) ayudan al visitante a imaginar tiempos pasados repletos de historia.

Leprechauns and that elusive pot of gold were nowhere to be found, but instead the elaborate spectrum of rays cast down from the heavens located the real prize in the form of BNSF 1099 dressed in BNSF's infant livery busting out of the torrential storm clouds dropping their deluge onto Mississippi River at Ferryville, WI. With the thunderstorm now behind them, U CKBSWE0 12T and crew have sights set on La Crosse, WI, but more difficulties lie ahead in their path as they will need to weave through a maze of dead trains and 30 miles of single track along with five others in the fleet in front of them on a heavily plugged up north end of the Aurora Subdivision. These empty hoppers came from the steel manufacturing powerhouse of Cleveland Cliffs at Burns Harbor, IN, and will be routed through the Canadian border via Sweetgrass, MT, where CP will take them the remainder of the journey to Teck Resources in British Columbia for another round of metallurgical coal.

In 1927, Bert Koontz built this Coffee Pot on the west end of Bedford, Pennsylvania, to attract visitors to his adjacent gas station.
During the Lincoln Highway era (1912-1940), programmatic architecture was developed to appeal new motoring public. The Coffee Pot was one of them along the Lincoln Highway, Route 30, In Pennsylvania. This, 18 feet (5.5m) tall and 22 feet (6.7m) in diameter, was opened as a small restaurant, and later converted to a bar, then a gift shop.
In the 1980s, the Coffee Pot was officially closed and, by the 1990s, it was in bad shape and was nearly torn down. The local community came together, along with the Lincoln Highway Heritage Corridor to save this roadside landmark.
In 2004, the Coffee Pot was moved across Route 30 to the current location, the entrance of the Bedford County Fairgrounds and restored. Currently, in 2022, it is vacant.
