After a hot day on the beach, what better way to cool down and clean off than to stand in a bucket of water?
If you walk into the bucket of Big Brutus, the bottom of the bucket (which is now the back wall), is stained like this. I thought it was quite pretty.
The bucket (or dipper) has a capacity of 90 cubic yards. It could handle 150 tons of overburden in a single scoop. This is enough to fill three railroad cars.
The dipper was powered by eight 500 horsepower motors.

First experiment with tripod and self timer was somewhat ambushed by a girl with a bucket and a wish to do harm with it.
The bucket fountain in Wellington. I have about 40 photos to play with, there may be more.
It's overexposed at the top, but I'm not overly concerned. I couldn't get the shot without it.
In 2014, the Frank Myers Auto Maxx Team participated in the ice bucket challenge at the dealership in Winston-Salem, NC. These photos document that day.

these buckets, filled with water, are carried onstage and hoisted into the fly space over the course of the show (and then dumped onto the stage during a storm)
Death Valley was always on my bucket list for places to photograph. For Christmas Carly bought airline tickets for us to go visit last spring. After a couple of Covid related delays we finally got out there this spring. What added to the enjoyment of the trip was Carly, a veteran road warrior, handled all the logistics.
As a photographer when visiting an area for the first time there is always a tension between seeing all an area has to offer and waiting in one place for the "light" to appear. Scouting won out as we covered over 1200 miles and hiked over 25 miles resulting in a couple of good photos among a bunch of "we were there" snapshots. Death Valley was my favorite venue while Carly like the Joshua Tree National Park.
Crossing the desert twice by car as we made a circular path back to Las Vegas one begins to appreciate the size and isolation of this part of the country. We traveled through outposts that were hard to classify. Not really towns but a stopping point that included a gas station, restaurant and maybe a post office or a defunct train depot or a motel. Looking up these locations up in Wikepedia the population of these places that had not succumbed to ghost town status range from 5 to 1200 people. Just getting by seemed to be the trade off for the reward of being isolated from the chaos of modern life.
At the far end point of our trip, the Palm Springs area, we saw the other extreme where pretentious luxury was on conscious display. In this desert environment one had to wonder where do they get all the water to keep those golf courses so green? I had to look it up. Primarily from the Colorado River via 123 mile aqueduct!
Would not want to live out in the desert but can hardly wait to return.

You'd think in a 5 gallon bucket of PVC fittings I'd have everything I needed for this simple project. But NO! I had to go the the store for one missing item.
The Mexican water company moved a water meter the other day. I'm just now getting around to patching the pipes.
There are two guys playing "buckets" outside my office window. It sounds great for about 10 seconds, then it really, really wears on your nerves. So far though, I must say... it is way better than bagpipe guy.
