Evening elegy across the tracks

Join me as dusk falls, for a virtual stroll through the fields between Jeziorki, Dawidy Bankowe and Zamienie, as Change and Progress will change their nature forever. Idyllic scenes soon to be lost, like the one below...

 

...and this view across to a solitary farmhouse in Dawidy Bankowe - before long, six lanes of expressway and a service road will be driven in between.

Farm tracks between wheatfields, where a final season's crop is being grown.

The service road runs parallel to the S7 extension; the topsoil has been scraped away the main carriageways to the right, running through the fields, the Action computer warehouse in the distance, while to the left mounds of earth will be turned into embankments and viaduct ramps.

The Action warehouse. This will be Węzeł (junction) Zamienie, the first interchange to the south of Warsaw.

The newly-built hills, getting ever taller, offer entirely new views in all directions...

...like this one, across to Warsaw on the horizon (the towers look tiny because this is a very wide-angle lens)

Looking east towards the railway line...

Looking west towards a setting sun, less than a month to the summer solstice, when sunset in Warsaw will be at 21:01, just 18 minutes later than today.

Back across the tracks, on the Jeziorki side. At least here there won't be an expressway driven through these fields.
