Picking up the sequence from #2: www.flickr.com/photos/tengtan/3096511429/ , a close look at the iron steps up the large storage tank from another viewpoint. I wonder how secure the structure is and how long before it disintegrates with constant exposure to the salt sea air.

Former president Donald Trump’s latest remarks claiming that he would oversee the disintegration of the Nato alliance Saturday evening in South Carolina divided Republicans on Sunday.
Mr Trump made the remarks at a rally in Conway, South Carolina.
“If we don’t pay and we’re attacked by Russia, will you protect us?” Trump claimed to remember a Nato member-state’s leader asking him when he was president. He then claimed to have responded: “No, I would not protect you. In fact, I would encourage them to do whatever the hell they want.”
But Republicans — who are already experiencing a major split led by Mr Trump about the role of the United States as a global leader — disagreed about whether his words should warrant alarm when quizzed by The Independent.
Senator Roger Marshall of Kansas dismissed critiques of Mr Trump’s rhetoric.

This is a view just below Splitpoint lighthouse: terra-cotta like limestone cliff, disintegrated rocks, white foaming waves, roaring winds, fast shifting clouds - all exciting elements are there - all attest to the power of Nature - and yet there is untamed, raw beauty. The rugged limestone stack on the left is called Eagle Rock. Eagles are local to Aireys Inlet, and the head was once called Eagles Nest Point. The area is within the Eagle Rock Marine Sanctuary.
Beyond the horizon is Bass Strait.
What was fiberglass insulation now hangs down from ceiling beams, moist with mold and natural decay, as the building surrounding it slowly succumbs to nature's unfriendly march of time on the afternoon of January 29th, 2022, in Meadowview, VA.
This looks to have been a repair shop ... maybe lawn equipment or boat repair. It has windows and is missing windows. I think I should be able to count both for Window Wednesday. HWW!
Apparently there were too many fire exits, so the doors had to go. Huh?
Death Valley is an area of both creation and disintegration. Over time, new formations are created while the forces of nature slowly erode those that exist into oblivion. Returning to Death Valley after over a year’s hiatus, I was curious to see the conditions of the mud crack playas. While the most famed mud crack playa was a far cry from its peak glory days, this other playa section that I had visited thanks to David was still in pretty good shape.
On our first morning into the desert, Aaron kept going back and forth on where to shoot for sunrise. Watching the satellite intently we were trying to see if the incoming cloud front would arrive before sunrise. After much debate we ultimately decided on these mud cracks over going to the dunes. Looking out the window, the sky appeared to have some clouds: thin but seemingly enough to fill the sky.
Ultimately it was a solid decision even though the main hunk of clouds was still further to the west as the clouds that did arrive provided a pleasantly colorful sunrise. Although the mud cracks are not as deep and fresh-looking as my previous visit, the patterns were still vivid and varied. Trying multiple compositions I ended up liking this scene with a bit of concentric circles.
I came across this derelict pier by accident one day driving past it. I quickly turned the car around and stopped to take a look. It’s an interesting pier, the only one in the UK which is built on a rocky island with its walkway linked to the mainland. It was first opened in 1867 and closed to the public in 1994, as far as I am aware there are no plans to redevelop the pier. So unfortunately it continues to degrade and crumble into the sea with each passing storm.
15/54.
Inspired by uncontrollable things and losing yourself.
It feels good to create something really meaningful again. I feel like for awhile I wasn't creating with much emotional input as I did in the past, so it feels great to feel familiar and connected with my work again. I hope I can really start improving on this as an artist, and that it will start to translate through my work more clearly.
Honestly, this is best viewed large :)

A slightly different perspective than, "Disintegration." I totally lucked out in the timing, weather etc. as it all hinged on my son's pre-scheduled hockey game a 2 hour drive from home.

The sun has exploded into the clouds
Under this disintegrating sky
A ship is slowly passing by...
Le soleil a explosé en mille et un nuages
Sous ce ciel en désintégration,
Un bateau lentement navigue...
Blankenberge, Belgium
Alias: Disintegrator
Real Name: Maddison Daybreak
Gender: Female
Alignment: Villain
Powers: Is able to absorb various types of energy, which in turn charges her disintegration beam, projected from her visor. Thermal and light based energy gives her the most "juice"/charge. Besides the disintegration beam, she can project other types of light, plasma, and heat that are less powerful. In addition to these beams, she has super strength, and her armor makes her quite durable.
Backstory: Maddison had a pretty standard childhood. In fact, nothing really alarming had happened until just a couple weeks ago. When she would be taken from her family, and sent to Cooper's Landing. She would undergo experimentation, with them using the mystical greyish liquid that gave Captain Solar, and many others, powers once again. Maddison was there for weeks, subjected to various procedures, with some being more painful than others. But then he came. Captain Solar. Unfortunately, Maddison was left behind, as the facility collapsed around her. She screamed for help, but he was already gone. No one would save her. Her powers would first manifest itself in this moment, destroying the debris as it fell. She managed to escape, and get back home with minor bruising. Her family was so thankful to have her back, but Maddison never was the same after that. Her resentment towards Solar grew, wanting him dead for his failures as a hero. It's at this time, that she finds Chariot. The android, also having an interest in Solar being dead for locking up its master, Architect, decided to help outfit Maddison with a suit to help control her power. In return, of course, Chariot wanted in on the plan to kill Solar.

Picked this Boba at SWCO and did a little fig barf with him. Let me know what you think. I am currently working on another SW scene that should be up soon.
"There will be a substantial reward for the one who finds the Millennium Falcon. You are free to use any methods necessary, but I want them alive. No disintegrations. "
My next Episode V Build, i'm particularly proud of this one as it's something i've wanted to do for a long long time. Feedback appreciated!
Love in our life is just too valuable
Oh, to feel for even a second without it
But life without death is just impossible
Oh, to realize something is ending within us
Feeling yourself disintegrate

Sometimes the song inspires the photo; sometimes the photo inspires the song... This is a little bit, actually thousands of little bits of both. ;~)
disintegration - fading civilization
[Polaroid Land Camera 100 / Fuji FP 3000b / from negative / July 2016]
The last five months (May-September 2023) required me to move a lot for a variety of professional and personal reasons. It was the first time in several years that I entered airplanes without carrying my DSLR camera. This resulted in me tinkering and thinking with my mobile phone camera, surpassing my snobbish attitude towards it as means of photographic expression. Visiting an old favourite antique store of mine, I was exposed to wallet-sized black and white pictures, very fashionable in the 1920s-1960s. Phenomenologically, I thought, these little pictures carried significance similar to the one carried by the myriads of photos nowadays stored on mobile phones. I tried to combine the sensory experience of black and white with the ease of mobile phone shooting, itself resembling certain types of pinhole cameras. Themes are the same as in my earlier photography: decayed and rusty patterns of disintegration, emptiness of spaces, outlier figures of the everyday, street signs and letters, nonhuman friends, naturecultures, and psychopolitically haunted scenes. Places include: Canada (Toronto), Greece (Athens, Thessaloniki, Aghia, Larissa, Eleftheroupoli, Kavala), Scotland (Edinburgh), France (Paris), Belgium (Brussels).

"The fight is never about grapes or lettuce. It is always about people." Cesar Chavez
The lettuce was about three times bigger when I started but I did a poor job of fixing it to the stand so it fell down and disintegrated in a way you would not think possible....it just went to pieces :)) so I taped the usable bits back together and fixed it to the lightstand again and quickly did some shots ...phew - very dramatic lettuce photo session

This time of year more than any other my "Marginal" project informs everything else I do. The layering in nature that records a mathematical equation of form over time, compressed in book like form for someone or something to marvel over in a few thousand years time.
Relief gushed from both of them as their stricken B-17 crossed the Great North Road and finally touched down. But by landing in a farmer's field, wheels down, at over 200 MPH, Archie and Wally had no chance. Archie died first. With the initial deceleration his head slammed forward and was pulped by the instrument panel. Wally, in the radio room, suffered much more as he died. Every twist and tumble of the disintegrating bomber broke a bone--until they all were broken and he was also dead.
I took this shot back in '99. The caption is my kinda creepy summation of how the last flight of the "Ten Horsepower" (more accurately, the "Ten Horace Power") came to an end. If you want to know the rest of the story, you'll have to read Rick School's "Valor over Polebrook" www.polebrook.com/about_the_book.html
