Out with the Focus group on Saturday to Coledale for the first time. Great rock shelf to the north of the beach. It has 2 lines of pipe supports that has disintegrated. This one farthest to the north picks up the early morning rays of the sun beautifully with the remnants of the rusty pipe that was plus some nice reflections in the middle.

The Salvador Dalí Museum is an art museum in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States, dedicated to the works of Salvador Dalí. It houses the largest collection of Dalí's works outside Europe, located on the downtown St. Petersburg waterfront by 5th Avenue Southeast, Bay Shore Drive, and Dan Wheldon Way.
Reportedly costing over $30 million, the surrealism-inspired museum structure features a large glass entryway and skylight made of 1.5-inch (38 mm) thick glass. Referred to as the "Enigma", the glass entryway is 75 feet (23 m) tall and encompasses a spiral staircase. The remaining walls are composed of 18-inch (460 mm) thick concrete, designed to protect the collection from hurricanes which hit the region from time to time.
The Museum is a member of the American Alliance of Museums (AAM) and of the North American Reciprocal Museums program.
The museum features a variety of different events for families to attend. Some events include performances, workshops, films, lectures, different types of fundraising, and food & drink events. Many previous events have allowed members to participate in handmade holiday card workshops where participants created their very own holiday card including a Dalí theme. In addition, there has been weekly poetry performances and lectures such as coffee with a curator, a presentation on a theme-oriented topic that discusses a variety of topics in relation to Dalí.
Shortly before marrying in 1942, Reynolds and Eleanor Morse attended a Dalí retrospective at the Cleveland Museum of Art. Intrigued by the artist's subject matter, and impressed by his draftsmanship, they bought their first painting a year later. This purchase began a 40-year relationship as patrons and friends of Dalí that resulted in a comprehensive collection of original Dalí work.
Until 1971, the Morses displayed their collection in their Cleveland, Ohio, home. When they loaned over 200 pieces to a Dalí retrospective in 1965, they realized that 25 years of curation had produced a unique collection that needed a permanent home.
In March 1971, with Salvador Dalí presiding over the opening, the Morses opened a museum adjacent to their office building in Beachwood, Ohio. By the end of the decade, with an overwhelming number of visitors, the Morses decided to again move their collection.
After a drawn-out search which drew national attention, a marine warehouse in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida was rehabilitated and the museum opened on March 7, 1982, where it remained until 2010.
In mid-2008, a new location for the Dali museum was announced. A new building was designed by Yann Weymouth of the architectural firm HOK and built by The Beck Group[ under the leadership of then-CEO Henry C. Beck III. Located on the downtown waterfront next to the Mahaffey Theater, on the former site of the Bayfront Center, (an arena which had been demolished in 2004), the new, larger, and more storm-secure museum was opened on January 11, 2011.
On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the building on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.
The museum's collection includes 96 oil paintings, over 100 watercolors and drawings, 1,300 graphics, photographs, sculptures, and objets d'art, plus an extensive archival library.
The Museum Library contains over 7,000 volumes, exhibition and sale catalogs, video, sound recordings, and special collections related to Dalí's life, Surrealism, and the Avant-garde. The library also holds the donated collection of Albert Field, a New York collector and Dalí archivist. Recently, the museum opened a new exhibit named "Dali Lives", which uses artificial intelligence to help visitors to experience an interactive modern-day Dali. Permanent collection displays are periodically rotated, and several temporary shows are mounted each year.
The museum is home to more masterpieces of Dalí than any other museum in the world, including the large-scale paintings The Hallucinogenic Toreador, The Discovery of America by Christopher Columbus, The Ecumenical Council, Geopoliticus Child Watching the Birth of the New Man and The Disintegration of the Persistence of Memory.
In addition to displaying the work of Dalí, the museum aims to educate the public and promote understanding, enjoyment, and scholarly examination of art through the exhibition of works by Dalí and artists of similar vision.
With the exception of the Dalí Theater-Museum created by Dalí himself in his hometown of Figueres in Catalonia, the St. Petersburg Dalí Museum has the world's largest collections of Dalí's works.
During the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, the Salvador Dalí Museum made their gallery available for viewing online.

As a side note, I do not recommend breathing in a load vapour from a smoke machine. Gives you quite a headache after a few hours.
The photo session disintegrated into a mob scene. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured. :D
(There are a ton of these. You might want to click once to get this one on black, and go through them quickly with the "older" arrow.)
Seeing the aliens, including the mother, into the main corridor of the ship, Android SXYGEOF and HAWTMORG rushed to catch up with them but with extra precaution.
"Remember, these aliens have acid for blood when you injure or kill them. That blood will certainly disintegrate us." shouted SXYGEOF
"Understood SXYGEOF. As my human master would say, "We are going to conquer and kick some." Hearing the sound of HAWTMORG getting her MP469 ready for the upcoming battle.
"I don't understand that phrase that you just said but I assume you are saying that we are going to win this battle"
"Damn right! That's what my master used to say frequently too!"
"I will never understand human behavior!" said a bewildered SXYGEOF

Disintegrating autumn leaves do intriguing things. I took two shots of this skeleton patch on a hypericum leaf but couldn't decide which one to upload, so I uploaded both.
... well there's one bonus to driving 4 hours to & from an exhibition hockey game this past weekend; ... that was the fact that I knew this baby was hiding just off the highway in the Caragana bushes near the small-town we played in.
I'll have a couple more to share from my 10 minute stop (... while my exhausted son, Ernie (jr), sat patiently waiting in the truck ... again ... ;)
This is the view north into Cathdral Valley proper from Upper Cathedral Valley Overlook. For those of you who recall my extended description of the brutal 28 mile drive to reach Upper South Desert Overlook (flic.kr/p/W1hn6e), this view is just a few miles further west. I had failed to reach Upper South in time to capture a spectacular sunset; I wasn't going to let that happen again. The following morning I was right where I was supposed to be for this...not-quite-spectacular sunrise. So it goes.
Unlike this morning's light, road conditions did eventually improve over that of the previous day. The average Subaru Outback should have no problems with an out-and-back along the northern half of the Cathedral Valley loop. That's the half with the best scenery anyway.

With temperatures exceeding six hundred degrees and his share of scares to prove it, this Kettle Corn Maker plies his trade at the Virginia Renaissance Festival.
Though the heat was bearing down and popcorn was exploding all around him, this soldier of tasty goodness couldn't have been happier.
"I'm quitting my regular day job so I can do this full-time," he shouted to me above the din of the flying kernals. "I pour the sugar in and it doesn't just coat the popcorn, it disintegrates into the popcorn itself. That's what gives it the superior taste. The sweetness is in the popcorn, not just on the outside."
I'd type more about the experience, but my other hand is too busy feeding my face with this stuff!
I was ready to post the color version but for giggles I made a bw version and ended up liking this better.
I got the shot by putting my camera on my monopod, setting my timer, guessing the distance, tripping the shutter and holding the monopod over my head. Got the shot on the first try! Boo-yah!

The Empire disintegrated with the death of Rax, the disappearance of Sloane, and the failure of the Imperial counteroffensive which ended with the loyalists' catastrophic defeat in the Battle of Jakku.
The Empire forever changed as it was pushed back to a handful of sectors on the fringe of the Outer Rim, containing only a small fraction of the galaxy's population and industrial base. These sectors were a heavily fortified final redoubt, and the New Republic deemed that they posed too minor of a threat to justify the high cost in life that liberating them would require.
The New Republic then forced Grand Vizier Amedda to capitulate the Empire and settle for the Galactic Concordance on Chandrila, a humiliating armistice agreement which imposed strict disarmament plans and punishing reparations on the Empire. Treaty stipulations included outlawing the recruitment and mobilization of the Stormtrooper Corps, paying heavy war reparations, adhering to strict disarmament treaties, abandoning the numerous Imperial Academies scattered across the Empire, banning torture, and ceding its capital of Coruscant to the Republic.
Chancellor Mothma then issued another declaration designating all surviving officers war criminals, though she granted conditional pardons to all civilian functionaries including Amedda, provided they complied with the Concordance. While regulating what remained of the Empire's once-mighty military-industrial complex, thus limiting its ability to wage war, the treaty did permit elements of the Imperial Navy to remain in pre-determined boundaries in the Core Worlds and the Inner Rim.
At the command of the Republic, they were recalled to the Core; however, some did not obey.
