The colour version of "the machine that ate the earth" at Ocean Reef Marina :-) The colour in the bright summer morning light were outstanding
Over fertilized plants may be beautiful but are otherwise useless, like people whose energies are devoted so completely to their appearance that there is no other development.

Mural on a building side in downtown Des Moines, Iowa
"You can almost hear her gasp!
A blonde woman from a vintage comic strip looks in wide-eyed shock at the graffiti spreading across the wall of a building downtown. ....
Weber ....The artist is known for politically and socially charged artwork along the lines of the current exhibition he guest-curated at Moberg Gallery, which helped arrange the Workspace commission.
But the new mural’s message is more subtle, he said. The blonde woman represents “the overall American consumer” or a “more traditional” Des Moines citizen reacting to downtown’s rapid growth. Partially hidden among the graffiti tags are Dopey from Disney’s “Snow White” and a pair of Smurfs, whose woodland habitat is threatened by development.
“In any city in America, there are murals everywhere. In Oakland, you can’t go two blocks without seeing one,” Weber said, praising downtown Des Moines’ own murals by artists Chris Vance, Van Holmgren and others. “Hopefully, in another year or two, we’ll have twice as many.”
It's that time of the year again. Hiawatha #336 arrives Chicago behind the class Amtrak B32-8WH which is subbing for a Charger that shit out a few days prior. The searchlight installations at the east end of Morgan Street were installed in the early 1980s.
Real estate development has exploded in the West Loop over the past decade. The Fulton Labs on the right were completed last year, and 345 N. Morgan on the left was completed a few months ago (still under construction when this picture was taken). The latter was built by Sterling Bay which is also overseeing the redevelopment of the former ADM flour mill. What you see here is only a fraction of what's to come to the West Loop in the next few years.
Set in a gated community amidst nurturing green and the white glory of the pagoda dogwood, this condominium birdhouse development offers luxury apartments and stylish single homes. It is situated in the Children's Garden of Ellyn's LOST GARDEN.
NOW! What are YOU doing about the latest iteration of Flickr??
** SmugMug - who conjured up that name?! From having looked it over, I can't see staying. To me, it seems that too many things are happening at once!
*Working Towards a Better World
Peace is the marriage of the people and the planet, with all attendant vows. - Anonymous
Peace comes from being able to contribute the best that we have, and all that we are, toward creating a world that supports everyone. But it is also securing the space for others to contribute the best that they have and all that they are. - Hafsat Abiola
In some ways, the challenges are even more daunting than they were at the peak of the cold war. Not only do we continue to face grave nuclear threats, but those threats are being compounded by new weapons developments, new violence within States and new challenges to the rule of law. -
Kofi Annan
There is no time left for anything but to make peacework a dimension of our every waking activity. - Elise Boulding
Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding. - Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
Thank you for your kind visit. Have a wonderful and beautiful day! xo💜💜
Took some shots at the Ocean reef marina development again. The new reclaimed land for the Marina is starting to be built on. I always find the simplicity of the water, sky and sea wall elements make for striking photos. On this day the clouds were also making an appearance and added further interest. The colours are always amazing here and the water is mostly a silty yellow/green colour which is best seen when I use the polariser to get rid of the glare. In these shots you can see the effects of varying amounts of polarisation.
...as in I'm pretty sure being upside down is good for their brain development. Don't quote me on that though. Unbelievably this is my fifth explore in 5 days!!!!!
I really do not enjoy the process of taking sunset photos, having to be in the perfect place, at the perfect time is something I have difficulty with - and my lens being incompatible with (sensibly priced) filters doesn't exactly help either, but all in all despite the bitching, I'm pretty happy with how this one came out.

Sometimes I wonder how fast Saigon has developed. That feeling is when standing in a small 200-year-old communal house in the middle of the bustling urban area of the city.

This is where Black Swamp meets future residential development. That is the You Yangs in the distance where i took this image

Tucked into the mountains of Iwate Prefecture near the under visited, stunning Sanriku Coast in eastern Japan is the Iwate Development Railway.
Established in 1939, the railway operated passenger and limestone transport from its mine in Iwate Ishibashi, to the cement plant at the port city of Ofunato for a total of 11km in length. The line suffered severe damage during the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. In fact, photos of debris covering the top of this bridge can be found online. The railway was brought back just 8 months after the quake and has been going strong since.
Two trains, pulled by DD56 Centercabs, shuttle 18 car limestone trains back and forth from the mine to the cement plant around 12-18 times a day. Here a midday empty train crosses over the Sakari River bridge bound for the mine for another load of rocks.
