Darmstadt (GER) 2013 (exif date is not correct), one day before the photograph was taken, in the morning, the facade of the house (1870) collapsed for inexplicable reasons. Nobody was injured.
This natural disaster was caused by a factor of high tide, strong winds and the bursting of a dam ...
The results in human casualties and large number of victims could have been avoided 24 hours earlier, choosing to evacuate people ...
To the 21st century, we don’t dispose unfortunately any sufficiently evolve technologies to prevent the natural disasters happen…
But on the other hand:
* We could adopt avoidance behavior, while stopping building on areas of risk (flooding, earthquakes with destructive magnitude, tornadoes... )
* And we can, to the planet scale, adopt less polluting behaviors, to reduce the greenhouse gas, and thus to reduce the intensity of certain natural disasters, of which the climatic warming contributes to increase their intensity...
= French version
Cette catastrophe naturelle a été causée par un coefficient de marée élevé, des vents forts et la rupture d'une digue ...
Le bilan en pertes humaines et en nombre élevé de sinistrés aurait pu être évité 24 heures plus tôt, en choisissant d'évacuer les populations...
Au 21ème siècle, nous ne disposons malheureusement pas de technologies suffisamment évoluées pour empêcher les catastrophes naturelles...
Mais en revanche:
* nous pourrions adopter des comportements d'évitement, en arrêtant de construire sur les zones à risque (d'inondations, de séismes à magnitude destructrice, de tornades...)
* et nous pourrions, à l'échelle de la planète, adopter des comportements, moins pollueurs, pour réduire les gaz à effet de serre, et ainsi réduire l'intensité de certaines catastrophes naturelles, dont le réchauffement climatique contribue à accroître leur intensité...
From a small collection of real photo postcards depicting life in Amsterdam, Ohio. I believe this group dates to around the time of the famous April 1910 coal mine explosion at the Youghlogeheny & Ohio Company Mine. Here is a link to a story about the disaster in case you are interested: www3.gendisasters.com/ohio/2964/amsterdam,-oh-coal-mine-e...
In my mind, this is what the RPPC is all about-- capturing the history of America from the small town perspective. I obtained this group of 18 cards as one lot and I am fairly certain they were salesman samples as there were a few non-RPPC cards with the lot that had the typical ordering information on the back. All of these cards are unused with no postmarks or writing on the verso. At the time, I paid quite a bit to get the lot. I’ve never regretted buying this group as they tell such a powerful story as a whole. As a reminder, please do not copy or distribute my images with authorization.
* Nếu như nước mắt là ngôn ngữ câm lặng của nỗi đau
Nếu như im lặng là sự hùng biện cuối cùng của nỗi buồn
Thì vô cảm là sự ngụy biện cho một trái tim đã quá nhiều nỗi đau dồn nén ♥ *

Shocked and saddened by the sad news of the earthquake centered in Chengdu, our thoughts and prayers go out to the family of our Chinese daughter, from Chengdu. Nine years ago, we dodged disaster when the top 50 feet of a rotten Doug Fir gave way and fell on our family during a hike, Liu Yang, (aka "Janet") then 16, suffered only a small gash in her head. Here she is comforted by my wife, Kathleen, as they sit amidst the tree debris in the Salmon River, awaiting the arrival of rescue workers. Fate is arbitrary and capricous. That tree could have crushed us all, or it could have stayed put up in the forest canopy. Only Janet, Jack and Sadie the dog were along the river bank when the tree fell--other dawdlers had stopped on the trail for a rest break. Jack and Sadie jumped away and the big limbs and branches fell all around Janet, missing her mostly, and leaving only a small wound that required just a few stitches. Conclusions? Hard to come by. Except that for any of us, at any time, death can come in an instant. But if it isn't time for your number to come up, you're good to go, through almost anything.
"I know a drugstore cowgirl so afraid of getting bored
She's always running from something so many things ignored
I try to be not like this but I thought it'd make a good song
There's nothing to see shows over people just move along"

MS Astor basking in the evening sunshine at cruise 18 berth having spent the day in Dublin in August 2019.
Built in 1987, operating for Cruise & Maritime Voyages ( CMV ) capable of carry about 650 passengers, it was a regular on the cruise circuit into Dublin.
Sadly, with the crash of the cruise ship market caused by Covid-19, CMV went into administration during the pandemic in 2020 & she beached in Aliaga, Turkey on 23 November 2020 for scrap.
On 25 September, 2020 an AN-26Sh military transport plane crashed during a training flight,[1] in Chuhuiv, Kharkiv Oblast, Ukraine. 25 death! Pray for them. RIP soldiers! Pray for Ukraine.

As many of you know, my aunt has moved to a Sr Living apartment. A few years ago she had given me a hide-a-bed sofa. Well now she needed it back, so she traded me for the cabinet that my 'Starbucks' now occupies. So we both won in the end, and now I finally have it out of my Living room, and into the family room.
My husband & I carefully carried it in ... but it appears not careful enough!! The only one left standing was good old Jack!
I had already put some of the furniture in place before I took this .... It was Much Worse!
We had to raise our LOTRs shelf to accommodate 'Starbucks', but I Love the new location!
"I did nawt hit her I did naaaaawt! Oh, hi Mark."
The Disaster Artist opens this week, and I've heard amazing things! I can't wait to see it.

Euboea had its hardest time the summer of 2021. Multiple wildfires and poor management led to a disaster unlike any other Greece has faced the past decades. Hundreds and hundreds of green acres burnt, whole villages turned into ashes and the toll of animal lives crash you in tears. Many tried to live a normal life and hope for things to get better, as we could not do anything to help whatsoever. This photo was taken as the wildfire was about 30 to 40km away, the next day we had an emergency call to evacuate... So much sorrow.
testing some new formes with water,but sometimes a disaster comes and in place of a beautifull clean shot we get something like this :) a sliding glass.
this is only one shot ,no photoshop(just croping).
thanks for your time ;)

Beautiful Disaster lyrics by Jon Mclaughlin.
She loves her mama's lemonade,
Hates the sounds that goodbyes make.
She prays one day she'll find someone to need her.
She swears that there's no difference,
Between the lies and complements.
It's all the same if everybody leaves her.
And every magazine tells her she's not good enough,
The pictures that she sees make her cry.
And she would change everything, everything just ask her.
Caught in the in between of beautiful disaster,
And she needs someone to take her home.
She's giving boys what they want, tries to act so nonchalant,
Afraid they'll see that she's lost her direction.
She never stays the same for long,
Assuming that she'll get it wrong.
Perfect only in her imperfection.

"Beautiful Disaster"
He drowns in his dreams
An exquisite extreme I know
He's as damned as he seems
And more heaven than a heart could hold
And if I try to save him
My whole world could cave in
It just ain't right
It just ain't right
Oh and I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster
He's magic and myth
As strong as what I believe
A tragedy with
More damage than a soul should see
And do I try to change him?
So hard not to blame him
Hold on tight
Hold on tight
Oh 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster
I'm longing for love and the logical
But he's only happy hysterical
I'm waiting for some kind of miracle
Waited so long
So long
He's soft to the touch
But frayed at the ends, he breaks
He's never enough
And still he's more than I can take
Oh 'cause I don't know
I don't know what he's after
But he's so beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster
And if I could hold on
Through the tears and the laughter
Would it be beautiful?
Or just a beautiful disaster
He's beautiful
Such a beautiful disaster

Jeremiah 18:11 “Now then, say to the men of Judah and to the citizens of Jerusalem, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Behold, I am shaping a disaster and working out a plan against you. Turn back, each of you from his evil way; correct your habits and change your actions for the better.”’”
I have three pictures left to post of the badlands.
