Blackout regulations were imposed on 1 September 1939, before the declaration of war.
These required that all windows and doors should be covered at night with suitable material such as heavy curtains, cardboard or paint, to prevent the escape of any glimmer of light that might aid enemy aircraft. The Government ensured that the necessary materials were available.
External lights such as street lights were switched off, or dimmed and shielded to deflect light downward. Essential lights such as traffic lights and vehicle headlights were fitted with slotted covers to deflect their beams downwards to the ground.

Project Soulpancake Week 26: Blackout Poet and The Teleidoscope Week 39: Words.
This challenge was pretty damn rad. See the comments for my rather lengthy, rambly poem (the last stanza is my favourite, fo' sho'!).
Last day at Centre Parcs, then back to the real world: my kittens, morris dancing and photo editing. Phew-eee.
Title: “Blackout”
3:00 AM.
South London.
A quiet residential street, still and fog-wrapped.
Two women stood motionless in the garden behind a detached house.
All black. All silent.
Dana wore:
•Black skin-tight leggings
•Completely black sneakers
•An tight-fitting denim jacket with the collar slightly open
•Black leather gloves
•A tight black balaclava that revealed only her sharp, focused eyes
Her figure was agile, dangerous, and composed.
Celine wore:
•Tight blue jeans
•Black flat boots
•A tight black bomber leather jacket, zipped, collar slightly open
•Black leather gloves
•A tight black balaclava like Dana’s, pulled perfectly in place
She stood tall, professional, eyes scanning the street like a machine.
Dana dropped to her knee at the glass patio door. Crowbar in hand.
“Three seconds,” she whispered.
Crack.
The lock gave way, clean and quiet. They slipped inside like a shadow cutting through silence.
The house was dark. A cold kind of quiet. The smell of furniture wax and old perfume hung in the air. They moved with total control.
Celine knelt at the hallway wall, took a small knife from her jacket sleeve, and cut the phone cable in one swift motion. Her gloves never made a sound.
Dana opened the bathroom door — empty. Then the guest room — nothing. Her nod said it all.
Down the hallway: the bedroom door.
It creaked as they opened it.
Inside: A woman in her seventies, asleep. Perfect hair. Clean linens. Her room was old-fashioned, soft-lit by a bedside lamp. A jewelry box rested on the nightstand.
She stirred.
Dana lunged, one knee on the bed. Her black leather glove sealed over the old woman’s mouth like steel.
“Make a fucking noise,” she hissed. “I dare you.”
The woman’s eyes were wide with panic, her body frozen in fear.
Celine moved fast. At the dresser. Flipped boxes. Rummaged through drawers. Plastic pearls, fake gold, worthless junk.
Then she reached lower — behind the bottom drawer — and pulled out a thick bundle of cash, rubber-banded, clean notes.
“Got it,” she said coldly.
She turned, walked toward Dana, and held up the bundle like a trophy.
In the dim light, her silhouette looked like a ghost with money in her hands.
Dana looked down at the woman under her grip.
“You thought this was gonna save you, huh?” she whispered. “Old, rich, and stupid.”
The woman whimpered. Dana slapped her across the face — once, hard, her gloved hand leaving a print of silence and power.
“You’re not walking out of this.”
Dana pulled her mask up just enough to show her face.
“Take a good look.”
Then her hands locked around the old woman’s throat.
No drama. No noise. Just pressure. Leather on skin. A fight that lasted seconds.
The woman twitched, then sagged into stillness — mouth open, eyes glassy.
Blanket pulled tight. Life gone.
Dana stood up calmly. Adjusted the hem of her denim jacket.
Celine zipped her bomber jacket a little higher, tucking the cash away.
“She’s gone?”
Dana nodded. “No loose ends.”
Celine walked to the window, peeked through the curtain. Street still dead.
They exited the house silently. Back garden. Through the fog.
The black BMW sat two blocks away. No plates. Engine cold.
Dana lit a cigarette, the flame glowing briefly through the mist. She handed one to Celine.
“You know what I love about posh old women?” Dana exhaled, smoke trailing from her balaclava.
“They don’t fight back,” Celine said, laughing softly as she slid into the passenger seat.
They drove off slowly.
Two black silhouettes fading into the London night — cold, calm, and cruel.

People approach a charging station, where they can plug in their personal electronics while power was out in the region. This is on the East side of Union Square, just before power was restored Friday night.
We had a blackout in a thunderstorm yesterday. The first one in years that lastet for over an hour. After the initial fascination on how dependent we are on electricity I decided to take some long exposure shots of the lightnings without any other disturbing lightsources. What a great opportunity. This is a >4 minutes exposure so you can imagine it was REALLY dark.

Blood in your eye
Blackout
Blood in your eye
Blackout
Blood in your eye
Floating out as colors fill the light
We look up from the ground in fields of painted white
Floating up you pass us in the night
The future gazing out a past to overwrite
So come down far below
We've been waiting to correct the things you know
Come down far below
We've been waiting to correct what you've let go
Come down below...

Ouvindo sobre o apagão sentada no carro, usando o celular para obter alguma luz. Aliás, preciso comprar velas. Devia ser proibido acabar a luz em casa de moça que mora só :P

Blackout in São Paulo and I was listening to the radio in my car. Used the cel phone to get some light :P
This colossal Leader Scale Blackout stands a whopping 12 inches tall. He's a commissioned piece, part of a set w/ Scorponok. I started with a nice 1:48th scale CH-53E Model kit, and a bunch of random parts and figures, and LOTS of styrene. Most of his armor panels were either built by scratch and/or custom cut from "left-over" parts from the model. I used movie stills, game art, CGIs, and concept art for my inspiration. Blackout has articulation at his head (ball joint) ratcheting and swiveling upper arms/shoulders, elbows (with working hydraulics) ball jointed wrists, 2-point articulated fingers, ratcheting hips, 2 more ratcheting knee style breaks in his legs, swivel at upper and lower leg, swivel at ankle, and each foot is composed of 3 independently posable toes, keeping a firm flat stance in any pose. Blackout's custom build head has 2 bright LED lights which route to an easily accessible battery and on/off switch behind his right arm. Also built a "blade" weapon attachment that pops in to replace either hand.
Painted his robot bits in various shades of metals, golds, coppers...and his copter parts in a nice dull military navy blue-gray. Added lots of weathering details and rust effects.
Am 29. September 2021 fand das Vorüben und die Generalprobe zum Blackout-Event des Bundesheeres auf der Donaubühne in Tulln statt.
lofi after the concert ... well it was really really hot in there.
I really like this band and try to push them in Austria as good as it is possible :o) happy that they are on tour in some days in Swizerland and Germany. tataaaaa
... and it's so much fun when they are coming to Vienna because they use to sleep, eat, talk, smoke, drink, jump and play in my flat.
