Bricks & Drips, Hafen Dortmund, 2017

 

Neben vielen anderen Graffitis findet sich im Dortmunder Hafenviertel auch dieses, das der in diesem Haus untergebrachten Firma als Werbetafel dient - dennoch schön anzusehen.

In addition to many other graffiti, the Dortmund harbor district also contains this one, which serves as a billboard for the company housed in this house - but it's still nice to look at.

My husband left this on the table yesterday and I decided it would be a good subject for flipping the camera. I should have taken the time to do it with more light and more in focus.

Having lurked for a while I've decided to try Flickr's ANSH scavenger hunt for some fun and motivation.

I've got a new toy...

Turned out pretty well seeing as this is the first water drop photograph I've taken.

Water drops . grungy

Ulan (near Mudgee)

NSW, Australia.

 

The Drip is an amazing gorge on the Goulburn River just north of Ulan and about 50km north of Mudgee.

The main part of the massive rock overhang is referred to as The Great Dripping Wall.

Water runs off from the surrounding hillsides & seeps through the rock & drips onto the the pools in the gorge.

Ferns cling to the rocks of the steep overhang and are constantly watered by the the water that drips down the top.

 

The track to The Drip is about 2.4km return, but it’s well worth exploring further downstream.

There are sandstone cliffs with ferneries that cling to them, huge boulders, & gnarly twisted trees.

Recently, an Aboriginal style painting on a large rock overhang by the river was discovered to be by Brett Whitely, a famous Australian artist.

 

The Drip area also contains a culturally important cave for the Wiradjuri indigenous tribe.

The cave has been used for many years as a place for women’s rituals & birthing was performed there.

 

The Drip is a popular destination for both locals & tourists.

People visit The Drip to bushwalk, swim, and also to go camping.

Its a great location for photography & also for bird-watching.

 

Unfortunately, The Drip is under threat from mining.

The area is not protected by the nearby Goulburn River national Park & is owned by the Moolarben Coal Company.

The mining company have proposed to protect as national park a measly 0.75ha of the area directly around The Drip wall.

The remainder 53ha of the proposal is for a state conservation area rather than a national park.

This does not protect the sensitive area from mining.

Moolarben Coal have a proposal to drill a tunnel that crosses The Drip are & this has the potential to affect local aquifers & river levels.

This could threaten the survival of the sensitive area of The Drip itself.

 

Local landowners Julie & Colin Imrie have offered 10ha of their neighbouring ‘Gleniston’ property to become national park,

as long as the Yancoal group hand over a larger portion of their land to national park.

 

This is a beautiful & unique area that needs to be protected as a national park.

 

Playing with an old CD and water. I thought the reflection of the blind set it off quite nicely.

Another water drip shot. Look at the defracted images.

After the snow, we had about a quarter-inch of ice. It's finally warmed above freezing, but it's raining heavily and such a wet mess outside that I couldn't bear to go out except under the soffit over the deck, where there were these dripping icicles.

The only rain around here these days is what I can create with a spray bottle or a hose.

Leftover zinnia from summer, still hanging on.

Hello my dear flickr friends.... I need to build a Noah's Ark !!!!

 

It is COLD, DARK and has been RAINING NON-STOP since last Sunday here in Mexico!

 

This is unheard of for February !! - even for the rainy-season (July-Sep) it would be unheard of... because after a few hours of rain the Mexican SUN would always come out again... without failure !

 

Acording to the weather forecast it will rain until Friday )))))):

 

This bowl is filling up under the now leaking skylight ))):
