best seen in black,
yesterday i was taking photograph of black winged kite....on a perch...all of suuden i saw a jungle cat ! it was large and gave a angry stare at me.....the camera was on spot metering mode and in hurry clicked the the wild cat.. the focus is not good eventhough the portrait looks fine.....
He was born in a mutant tribe deep down the literal drain, namely the cesspool we call the maze of sewers down under the undercity...
His name was at first Grga Krk the fifth but when a sewer cleaning machine ripped off his legs he got a new name Squat Jumper...
:.:.he was of mutant breed with a corrupted Fabulandic gene... the bionic legs he stole from his mentor crime lord when he was poisoned by his apprentice...
...that is the only luxury he ever wanted and would ever have, now a crime lord in his own right... but he rules his syndicate in a covert way, no one knows that he is the big cheese, he doesn't even earn a penny... .
...:so why does he do it? is it because he enjoy power and manipulation? yes probably... Ok he is technically not a droid, but his minders are...

Back in the early '90s, my then-boyfriend and I were traveling to San Diego in July. By the time we got to Yuma, it was hot, glaringly bright, and the A/C couldn't keep up. By the time we got to El Centro, it was brighter (2pm) and hotter. (120 deg F) I was fading fast. Then, it was the sight of this fertilizer tank, with the words, "sea level", marked with a line half way up the tank, that made me feel like I was about to dry up and blow away out the window. "Below sea level!!!" I exclaimed in disbelief. I felt like I was sinking down into Hell, taking all the heat with me. At the time, we were attending college up at 7,000 feet altitude, so it was quite a difference from everyday life!
The boyfriend became the husband a few years later, and last week, we came by this way again, with the kiddos. Thank goodness it was January instead of July! Husband pulled off I-8, and found the dirt road along the fence line, so I could get my pinhole of the tank. Two employees road up in their little golf cart, leery of what we were doing. We excused ourselves as crazy tourists, taking a picture of their fertilizer tank, with a metal can. I can't believe they bought it!

ps for Husband: Yes, I concede- the tank is on the ((left)) side of the freeway!

This might have been a half decent shot if it wasn't for the vegetation, poor light and uninspiring traction.

River Dargle Flood Defence Scheme.
These images were taken during the second week of August, 2016.
Constant traffic nowadays with hard material being trucked in and dumped in storage areas along The Slang/Rehills section of the river bank.
Further work is now being undertaken to upgrade the protection of the riverbank edge with the laying down of extra stone material.
==================
The River Dargle is a valuable salmon and sea-trout fishery.
Wicklow County Council, in planning the Dargle flood relief scheme have taken cognisance of this fact and have worked closely with Inland Fisheries Ireland, from the planning phase of this project, to ensure that the flood relief programme will not have negative consequences for this valuable fishery.
Essentially this involves the incorporation of a ‘fish friendly’ channel within the flood relief profiles to ensure that the natural channel form is maintained at low water levels.
