The weather is hot but the water is cool, so grab a float and jump into the pool!
This Blythe doll is Simply Guava for “Summertime” on Facebook. Her cute bikini is from Junie Moon.
A papercut, handpainted in my favorite shade of blue.
It reminds me of old woodcuts.

Always photographically interesting stuff on the quayside, floats and nets...
Small floats were usually made of cork, but fishermen in places where cork was not available used other materials, like birch bark in Finland and Russia, as well as the pneumatophores of Sonneratia caseolaris in Southeast Asia.
These materials have now largely been replaced by plastic foam.
Glass floats were large glass balls for long oceanic nets, now substituted by hard plastic.
They are used not only to keep fishing nets afloat, but also for dropline and longline fishing.
Often larger floats have marker flags for easier spotting.
These looked to me like the sweets on a bracelet or necklace??? LOL
Thank you for all your words, time, comments and faves.
Very much appreciated. M, (*_*)

At the Little Colorado River in the Grand Canyon, if the stream is clear and your river captain is in a good mood, he can take you up the canyon for a traditional float train. With life vests on, everyone grabs the feet of the one behind and the train floats downriver through a small "rapids" for a ton of fun and laughs. This was from a Grand Canyon rafting adventure in June 2008 while the group was preparing for a dunk and a big splash ahead.
The light blue color comes from sunlight reflecting off travertine deposits on the river bottom. Looks like a big swimming pool, doesn't it? When the Little Colorado floods, it brings silt down from its headwaters, turning the river brown from here down the rest of Grand Canyon all the way to Lake Mead.
Entry to fants contest. Guess it’s me in some strange dystopia where we all float and wear kabuki masks. Also the hairs dyed. I’m not ginger hehe
When the North Pacific Cannery was closed in 1968 everything was left laying exactly as it was on the day that it was closed, including all the nets, floats and a host of other things. Fascinating to step back into this time and imagine everyone getting the notice that it was closing and just walked away.
float away

to get where im going , i need to know where to go.
i dont know when or how to start, its something i dont know.
for blind man to see would be a miracle, but why would he want to see what were doing with the planet, with society.
in my eyes if they have an image of the world in there head, its more beautiful in there.
you could fall in love over personality rather then looks, being who you are, is beautiful.
dont regret anything that you made you smile, if it made you happy, then why throw it all away?
if you want to do something, you should go out and do it. if you believe you can fly, then friggen go for it. find a way for you to fly. things can be hard, but nothing can be impossible. someday everyone will be happy. everyone will have completed there dream, wether its on this planet or the land after.
dont jump if your afraid of the fall,
you wont know what to expect, you may hit the ground.
just keep an open mind , listen to the sounds.
and remember, what goes up.. must come down.
It caught my eye because it looked suspended in mid-air ... and also because it's pink and I love a sweet pink and green colour combo.
Bad news comes, don't you worry even when it lands.
Good news will work its way to all them plans.
We both got fired on exactly the same day.
Well we'll float on, good news is on the way.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on OK.
And we'll all float on OK. And we'll all float on.
Alright already, we'll all float on.
No don't you worry. We'll all float on.
Alright, already. We'll all float on.
Alright, don't worry. We'll all float on.
- "Float On" by Modest Mouse
Freshmen year is coming to a close and it's been a helluva year. At times, it felt like everything bad that could happen, did happen (Damn you Murphy). But no matter how dark it got, I just kept pushing towards the light and I've managed to Float On.
The Block 10 mine, one of the original BHP leases, was floated as the BHP Block 10 Co. Ltd in 1888. A concentration mill was erected at the mine in the 1890s to treat sulphide ore. Underground subsidence seriously affected the mill and, as a result, a new mill was erected on this hill in 1903, about 600 metres from the mine.
An aerial ropeway, the first at Broken Hill, was completed in 1904. This transported broken ore from the mine to a large storage bin above the mill. The mill cost £50 000 and could treat 3500 tons of ore per week.
The mine produced 2.5 million tons of ore and paid £1.5 million in dividends up to 1923 when it and the mill closed and were purchased by BHP. The mine was reworked by Broken Hill South Ltd between 1946 and 1960. Much of the mine site is now covered by overburden dumps from modern open-cut operations.
The concrete foundations on site are the remnants of the Block 10 concentration mill erected in 1903. The mill, designed by Captain John Warren and containing many of his inventions, was the first all electric mill in Broken Hill.
The aerial ropeway delivered broken ore from the mine to a storage bin above the mill. Broken ore was fed to crushing rolls and then passed to cylindrical trommels and hydraulic classifiers for sizing. Subsequent treatment consisted of wet concentration by jigs, Wilfley tables and vanners. These relied on specific gravity to separate the heavier lead and silver minerals from the zinc minerals. The resultant concentrate contained about two-thirds of the lead and one-half of the silver in the original ore, but very little zinc.
Flotation units were added to the mill in 1910 to produce a zinc concentrate from the tailings. Combined gravity-flotation concentration mills were standard at Broken Hill until after 1930 when the first all-flotation plants were installed.

Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta 2017
The Grade II listed Boat Float is an enclosure for mooring small craft and, from as early as 1585, the south and west sides (shown) were Dartmouth's main quay.
Access from/to the River Dart is via a channel on the east side, under a road bridge, and is tide dependent.
Float out into Moreton Bay and let the gentle waves lap the side of the yacht as you doze off to a sleep.
Triplets inside the breakwater at Redcliffe Jetty, SE Queensland.
Happy New Year everyone. Let us hope and pray that this time next year, things will be looking a lot better!
Polaroid Week Day 1 | Frame 1
The cocoon of travel envelops me. A protective layer that numbs and draws me inward.
But I see light, I see shadow and a small pocket of a beautiful simple story unfolds in front of me.
I reach into the front pocket of my work backpack where the Uncle Larry SX-70 sits, and I lean out, and the familiar "whuh-whirrr" spits out the frame.
I deftly snag it, and put it safely in the box in my backpack and feel the trip might be worth the anxiety. I hit play and @itspetergabriel 's new song "Road To Joy" starts...and I can't wait to wake up.
