this is a railroad siding in Tigard, OR, recently retired when the local willamette & pacific railroad laid new track in the area. the new siding follows the original (still active) right-of-way and is on the other side of the trees to the left. the siding here was disconnected when the crossings were re-done. construction of the entire line from Beaverton down to Wilsonville is part of a commuter rail project which is supposed to cut some of the congestion on interstate 5 and state highway 99 which run between the two cities.
this scan also happens to be from the first roll of film through my new Rollei 35 S, given to me as a late birthday present by my brother-in-law. (I'll get some pornshots of the Rollei later along with its story.)

gotta love the depth-of-field from the 40mm sonnar lens.
I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
