Fire-float Pyronaut displaying at Bristol harbour festival 2017
A specialised form of fireboat known as a fire-float. It was built in 1934 by Charles Hill & Sons Ltd., Albion Dock Bristol, Yard No. 208. Registered number 333833. She is owned by Bristol Museums and based at M Shed in Bristol's Floating Harbour.

A male scaup (I'm guessing of the lesser variety, due to the bump or less roundedness on the head, Aythya affinis) and a trio of buffleheads (Bucephala albeola) cruising along the surface of Rodeo Lagoon.
Glad to see the contacts are working again - hope they've fixed the bug! Hope all of you out there in flickr-land have a great weekend!

A levitação (do Latim: levis, leveza) é o processo com o qual se consegue suspender um objeto numa posição estável contrariando, assim, as forças de gravidade, mediante o uso de forças exercidas sem contato com o objecto.
Embora concebida tipicamente como resultado de um processo psíquico (como na feitiçaria e fantasia — em parte graças à sua promoção como número de entretenimento — a ciência ocidental reconhece que este processo pode ser conseguido de várias maneiras, nenhuma delas associada à forma fantástica da imaginação popular: através de jatos de gás (invisível) que impulsionam o objeto no sentido ascendente (como acontece no jogo air hockey), ou no sentido descendente (como acontece com os helicópteros, aviões VTOL e hovercrafts); ou mesmo através de forças magnéticas.

I shot the Sydney Mardi Gras this Saturday. A friend of mine ran one of the floats for Gay marriage and asked if I would cover it for him. He got me a media pass which meant I tagged along with the float instead of from the sidelines.
Very challenging lighting, especially when everybody and I am moving. It really suited the second curtain flash sync photos towards the end of the parade.
All in all it was a great night and made for some interesting photos.

We are building an art float with friends and neighbors for this year’s Mill Valley Memorial Day Parade.
Our float for this parade features the Bamboodu Theater, a mobile puppet stage I created for civic events and art shows. Our first show stars Lady Liberty and Mr. Trump. As music plays, a Mr. Trump’s recent tweets and alternative facts appear on a news ticker. Each time Trump says something wrong, Liberty hits him on his thick, bobbing head.
As we march, we will invite parade watchers to sing along the inspiring poem by Emma Lazarus about the Statue of Liberty (“Give me your tired, your poor …”). Through this interactive art experience, we hope to engage people of all ages to change the world through civic action.
I am making this float in my front yard with a wonderful team at the Mill Valley Community Action Network (MVCAN), a local political group which I recently joined to resist the conservative takeover of our country.
In this photo session, we were joined by journalist Paul Liberatore and photographer James Cacciatore, who are reporting about this float for the Independent Journal, Marin County’s main newspaper. It was a pleasure to welcome them both and introduce them to our team.
I’m very grateful to all our friends and neighbors who are helping bring it to life: Danny Altman, Laura Boles, Phyllis Florin, David Glad, Peter Graumann, Edward Janne, Suz Lipman, Charlene Lundgren, Jean Marie Murphy and Mark Petrakis and Martha Roush, to name but a few.
Our Bamboodu Float is coming along beautifully, and we can’t wait to show it off at the parade on Monday, May 29, 2017.
Join your neighbors to keep democracy alive!

Arlington has long held was is billed as Texas' largest Independence Day parade. These photos were taken at the 1996 parade. Above is a float from a clogging group.
A bin of colorful glass floats caught my eye outside of Marine Specialties Inc, on Commercial Street in Provincetown, MA. (Cape Cod). The late afternoon sun lit them up, showing off the brilliant reds and blues.
Keeping with the Halloweenish theme, in mystery novels a "floater" is a dead body that has been in the water for a long time. The only thing "scary" about this one is its name, unless ther is something tied to it and is lurking below the surface. (I didn't check.)

The Forest Service will be installing a new 77.5’ x 13.5’ finger float on the Tonka dock about 8 miles south of Petersburg on Kupreanof Island sometime in the next week or so. The attached photo shows the dock sitting on a truck at the manufacturers plant in Bellingham, WA. The dock will be trucked to Seattle where it will placed on an AML barge to Petersburg. Once it is in Petersburg, it will be transported to Tonka where a large crane will lift it over the top of 3 existing piles. Photo courtesy of Shoreside Marinas.
Founded in 1996, Le Krewe d'Etat features 21 floats, including a special signature High Priest Float. Its floats adhere to a traditional style of design that impart Le Krewe d'Etat's satirical theme, which has been voted "Best of Carnival" by critics. The Captain and officers ride on horseback throughout the parade.
In the tradition of Carnival, secrecy is very important to Le Krewe d'Etat. The identity of the ruler - the Dictator - is never revealed to the public, and the theme is secret until parade day.
The krewe's signature throw is the blinking logo skull bead. Le Krewe d'Etat was the first krewe to throw a blinking bead. They also publish the D'Etat Gazette, a bulletin with pictures and descriptions of the floats that is available only at the parade. Members of the krewe dressed as walking skeletons hand out the papers and wooden doubloons at the parades.
This organization is formed by 415 male riders.

Mardi Gras 2017
New Orleans LA
Last Thursday, December 1, we had an outing to Roger's Gardens, inside a treasure trove of seasonal scenes and symbols this time of year! Inside we we floated in reds and glitter! Outside, full of succulents, didn't look so much like "Christmas". Nevertheless what was there is part of my Christmas experience this year. I took over 50 pictures that day so I'm uploading them a bunch at a time! (Five outdoor pictures this morning!) Needless to say, I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of that outing! 9-)
