Been meaning to have a go at this for ages, following others on Flickr that have cracked this so well.
Finally found a digger right outside my work today - perfect opportunity to give this a go.
Not bad for a first attempt me thinks (bit heavy on the shadow?) :-)
shadow changed - bit better now

I share this in my ongoing effort to perplex those who like my landscape photography... but aren't so sure about the other stuff! Don't worry, my intentions are entirely positive. I'll remain a bit circumspect, but not entirely so. I like photographing urban scenes for a bunch of reasons, ranging from aesthetic to practical. On the practical side, they are often much more accessible — I can literally step out my front door and make photographs or perhaps find them at the end of a one-hour train ridge. They also challenge me to see in ways that are not in my native comfort zone, and they hone my ability to see quickly... which is a good thing. On the aesthetic side, if you know much about the history of photography and photographers, it is obvious that good work can be done in these places.
As to what is going on in this photograph, you shouldn't view it though the lens of landscape photography. Well, OK, perhaps you could do that. This is a kind of landscape. It even includes some native "wildlife." When you look at photographs of natural landscape, you probably look beyond the pure "beauty" of place and subject to consider the abstractions of from and color and implied motion and so forth. It might be worth trying the same thing with other subjects!

We don't use ordinary buckets for collecting our maple sap. We use various mason jars and these liter bottles we have. We use these because they're free, since we already own them. We also like that they allow us to see the amount of sap in each bottle. You do have to make sure they're not too full at night in case they freeze. We've never had any break, we try not to leave them more than half full overnight.

My bucket list.......
There are so many things on my bucket list that I want to do. Traveling, seeing sights, learning new things, making a difference, etc, etc.
The biggest thing on my bucket list though.....get married.
I want to be a part of something amazing. I want to develop a connection with someone more than just "hi, how was your week? Do anything fun? That's nice, Bye".
Right now though, this one particular item keeps eluding me. Its the one thing I can't do on my own. I can't make someone love me, I can't make someone want to be with me.
So for now, it's on my bucket list. I'm hoping someday I can cross it off.
Find two buckets that fit snugly into each other while leaving a few inches between the two buckets at the bottom for the water reservoir.
The Fleishhacker pool and pool house were built in 1924 by philanthropist Herbert Fleishhacker. The pool was the largest swimming pool in the United States. The pool held 6 million gallons of water and could accomodate 10,000 swimmers. The pool was closed in 1971 with the pool itself being paved over by the San Francisco Zoo for a new parking lot. The pool house which was used by bathers at the pool remains on its original site today in ruins.
I read a article from the forest service how to water big trees in time of a drought. You use five gal. buckets & drill 1 or 2 very small holes in the bottom . Because of the small hole the water goes straight into the ground and not all over the surface. You place the buckets around the trees drip line. They also said how to estimate the amount of water that is need per week I sure hope it works. My oaks are very stressed. My yard looks like it is late November, with all the leaves on the ground .........

In spite of its sinister name, 'the Bucket of Blood Saloon' gives off the charm of the old time hey-days with its many hanging lamps and mirrors. Memories of a time long ago await the visitor wandering into the bar for a cold drink in this cool oasis. This structure constructed in 1876 after the great fire
of 1875 which took up to a thousand structures of the town. Most of the town's core buildings were lost or sustained damage, unfortunately the first structure that previously occupied this location, like a lot of the other towns buildings
of that time was completely destroyed.
Though the building you are currently viewing has gone through several renovations, iterations and operations since 1876, it like many of the other Historical buildings throughout Virginia City survive as living history. The masonry walls of the Old BUCKET predate the great fire of 1875. Shadows of doorways recall a time when enclosed stairs led down to the Boston Saloon.
The BUCKET of BLOOD has long served as a local landmark in the center of Virginia City. Until recently no one realized that the Boston Saloon lay under an asphalt cap to the rear of the building. The discovery of the Boston Saloon location in 1997, together with a subsequent test excavation, demonstrates that the site is rich with artifacts and has national importance. This business stayed at a single location through most of its existence, making it an anomaly at the outset. Defying the odds, remnants of the saloon survive in the archaeological record, escaping 125 years of development and bottle collecting.
An asphalt parking lot currently caps the property, which the Comstock Archaeology Center excavated in September 2000. The Center is still
completing analysis and cataloguing over the years. Pending funding, one or more exhibits will open at various locations in the future.
