Well the comedown here was easy
Like the arrival of a new day
But a dream like this gets wasted
Without you
Under the pressure
is where we are
Under the pressure,
yea it's where we are babe
You're the only one
Like an illusion
When it all breaks down and we're runaways
Standing in the wake of our pain
And we stare straight into nothing
But we call it all the same
You were raised on a promise
Found that over time
Better come around to the new way
Or watch as it all breaks down here
Under the pressure
Well the break down here
Stole it all the way across
I wanna climb down the river
Stranded on
When you come here and I'm wasted
Lying on a field
Dancing in the rain
Hiding in the back
Loosening my grip
Wading in the water
Just trying not to crack
Under the pressure
Yeah that's where we are babe
Under the pressure
Full view of Niagara Falls, shows the immensity of it's size and the dynamics of the flow if the Niagara river. It's power is felt and heard even yards away. How beautiful it must have looked before modern man, turned it into a over developed attraction.
Museum De Fundatie in Zwolle, The Netherlands.
The court house was designed in 1838 by architect Eduard Louis de Coninck in neoclassicist style.
In 2004 the building was transformed into a museum (architect: Gunnar Daan).
In 2010, a remarkable extension was created, designed by BiermanHenket architecten.
Pressure gauge on a high temperature vessel. The leading lines on the scale should (hopefully) lead the eye to the pivot on the needle.
A close up rather than a true macro, this frame is about two inches or 5cm across.

Post processing to straighten and crop the image so that key parts fall into the thirds rule. Contrast and exposure levels tweaked too.
Abandoned, the sense of happy times gone by - this once expensive Winnibago motor home lies in pieces. Hard to comprehend how many good moments haunt this once loved possession. Scattered.
This hydrant is at the base of a huge water tower. The tower is to be painted, inside and out. Although the tower was not nearly full, well over 250,000 gallons of water were drained and spilled onto the streets of our neighborhood. This single hydrant handled all of it......took all day.

The oppressive visual onset of a storm is often occasioned by a rapid drop in barometric pressure. Studies have associated this drop with negative physical and emotional effects on living beings. Everything from rising blood pressure and headaches to restlessness and irritability. I suppose irritability is rather subjective when, for many people, we're merely attempting to distinguish between degrees. But I can attest to the restlessness as storms approach. It's based on an intense desire to experience the sensory aspects (winds, clouds, temperature change, advancing darkness, etc). It goes back to that boundary obsession I have, of standing on the edge between two realms. For me it's not enough to simply witness such an event. I yearn to document it, and each storm is like the first one. The excitement and the pull never seem to diminish over time. I think this is yet another opportunity to channel the energy from some external source and direct it into a creative bent. On this magical day I found myself in an old burial ground beneath an advancing system. The clouds seethed with dark energy that could be felt at ground level. The weather boundary echoed by the physical boundary, the old stone wall separating the dead from the living. Never felt more alive.

Collaboration done by Deep for the lettering and Hly for the Medusa.
DEEP: www.instagram.com/deepestarts
COLLECTIVE: www.instagram.com/crimepayswell/
Deep is a street artist, member of crew Crime Pays Well. His tags are often found on the walls of Montreal. But also when he has more time, letterings of great quality as we can see here, great filling
Not much information about Hly (his Instagram account just disappeared), but he often makes portraits of characters from Mythology like this Medusa head. Splendid!

Ice is water frozen into the solid state. It can appear transparent or opaque bluish-white color, depending on the presence of impurities or air inclusions. The addition of other materials such as soil may further alter the appearance.
Ice appears in nature in forms of snowflakes, hail, icicles, ice spikes and candles, glaciers, pack ice, frost, and entire polar ice caps. It is an important component of the global climate, and plays an important role in the water cycle. Furthermore, ice has numerous cultural applications, from ice cooling of drinks to winter sports and the art of ice sculpting.
The molecules in solid ice may be arranged in different ways, called phases, depending on the temperature and pressure. Usually ice is the phase known as ice Ih, which is the most abundant of the varying solid phases on the Earth's surface. The most common phase transition to ice Ih occurs when liquid water is cooled below 0°C (273.15K, 32°F) at standard atmospheric pressure. It can also deposit from vapour with no intervening liquid phase, such as in the formation of frost.
a dangerous train ...
The pine processionary (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) is a moth of the subfamily Thaumetopoeinae in the family Notodontidae, known for the irritating hairs of its caterpillars, their processions, and the economic damage they cause in coniferous forests.
Toxicity :
Stinging hairs contain a toxic protein that is very irritating and inflammatory: thaumetopoein. It penetrates where the “harpoon” is planted: most often in the skin, but also in the eye, the nose, the mouth…
The hair breaks and the toxin released causes a reaction similar to that of nettle stings: red pimples in the form of blisters, red itchy patches, appear on the skin.
General symptoms may occur in the event of significant exposure. The immune system then goes into overdrive, which can lead to a sudden drop in blood pressure, discomfort or loss of consciousness.
Is there a risk for animals? With their noses at ground level, animals are exposed to contact with these stinging hairs, particularly dogs. They can get it on their coat, or even take a caterpillar in their mouth, which can cause very serious inflammatory reactions including necrosis of the tongue.
Un train dangereux ...
La processionnaire du pin (Thaumetopoea pityocampa) est un papillon de nuit de la sous-famille des Thaumetopoeinae de la famille des Notodontidae, connue pour les poils irritants de ses chenilles, leurs cortèges et les dégâts économiques qu'elles provoquent dans les forêts de conifères.
Toxicité
Les poils urticants contiennent une protéine toxique très irritante et inflammatoire : la thaumétopoéine. Elle pénètre là où le « harpon » s’est planté : le plus souvent dans la peau , mais aussi dans l’œil, le nez, la bouche…
Le poil se casse et la toxine libérée provoque une réaction semblable à celle des piqûres d’ortie : des boutons rouges sous forme de cloques, des plaques rouges qui grattent, apparaissent sur la peau.
Des symptômes généraux peuvent survenir en cas d’exposition importante. Le système immunitaire s’emballe alors, pouvant mener à une baisse brutale de la tension artérielle, un malaise ou une perte de connaissance.
Y a-t-il un risque pour les animaux ? La truffe au ras du sol, les animaux sont exposés au contact avec ces poils urticants, notamment les chiens. Ils peuvent en avoir sur le pelage, voire prendre une chenille dans leur gueule, ce qui peut provoquer des réactions inflammatoires très graves jusqu’à une nécrose de la langue.

Prague, Old Town Square. The tourism pressure can clearly been seen through this view that highlights the progressive privatisation of the public space (cafes and shops).
Be shore of yourself
Come out of your shell
Take time to relax and coast
Avoid pier pressure
Sea life's beauty
Don't get tide down
Make waves!
La Ceja, Colombia; 2.300 meters above sea level.
The Red-bellied grackle is endemic to Colombia where it is found in all three Andean ranges at altitudes of 800 to 2,400m (2,600 to 7,900ft) above sea level.
Its natural habitat is tropical forest, but the trees are increasingly being felled for timber and to make way for agriculture, and little virgin forest remains within its range.
H. pyrohypogaster was formerly classified as "endangered" by the International Union for Conservation of Nature but in 2012 the threat level was lowered to "vulnerable". This is on the basis that, although its forest habitat remains under pressure, it has been found at some new locations where it was not known before. The total population is now estimated to be in the range 2,500 to 9,999 individuals.
Hampton Creek Cove. East Tennessee. 5/5/2015.
I didn't take the opportunity to go after this species this spring, so here is an image from last Spring that I've yet to post. This was the only male out of six I found that day that wasn't banded. Personally I think this species is over-studied, and I'm not persuaded that all that field study is not hurting this species in some locations, especially in the southern part of it's range which is under pressure already. Such studied populations behave differently than populations that are infrequently birded IMHO.
"You know life
Sometimes you just gotta stop caring about like
What everybody else thinks and just live your life, you know
Look
If you ain't failed couple times
You ain't ready for this
I don't crumble under pressure
I go heavy with this
Driving straight to the hole, I don't need no assist
If all I got is one shot, You know I ain't gone miss
I never take a hater serious, I'm petty with this
Never been the type to fold, I don't straddle the fence
Yeah, I might lose it all, I'll get it right back quick
I'm like a walking casino, 'cause I'ma takе that risk
I ain't scared of nothing but the old version of mе
I'm fired up, boy I love the cold version of me
I love the way I took the pain and now it's working for me
I'm coming back for everything that was taken from me
Ay what you thought it was, I'm like the little engine that could
They love my drive, they just wanna know what's under the hood
I wish you would tryna stop me, you gone get what you deserve
I'll show you how to take it from the bottom to the first
I know they tryna say you can't do it anyway
(talk your piece)
Ain't got no money in the bank, do it anyway
(I'ma do it)
I know you failed a couple times, but that's alright
We don't care what people think, do it anyway
I know they tryna say you can't do it anyway
(talk your piece)
Ain't got no money in the bank, do it anyway
(I'ma do it)
I know you failed a couple times, but that's alright
We don't care what people think, do it anyway
I remember when they said I couldn't, so now they ask me how I do it
When you really know you got it, you ain't never gotta prove it
When you started from the bottom, you ain't never scared of losing
Everything, all on God, is the only way I do it
Scared of what?
Scared of who?
Boy, I been had the juice, with an extra side of sauce
Boy I been had rague
Baby I got so much flavor and the pain is the seasoning
I promise I'ma get it, it don't matter what the season
I do it any day, everyday
I'ma get it in every way
Know they try to say that I can't, but I still doing it anyway
I don't care what they gonna say
I don't care what they gonna think
When you out here chasing your dreams, you don't care if people sleep
I wake them up when I speak, it's just a matter of time
Getting everything for me, it's just a matter of mine
I got audacity and confidence, a deadly combination
Yeah, I hear them talking, I just call it admiration
I know they tryna say you can't do it anyway
(talk your piece)
Ain't got no money in the bank, do it anyway
(I'ma do it)
I know you failed a couple times, but that's alright
We don't care what people think, do it anyway
I know they tryna say you can't do it anyway
(talk your piece)
Ain't got no money in the bank, do it anyway
(I'ma do it)
I know you failed a couple times, but that's alright
We don't care what people think, do it anyway
Eeh, eeh do it anyway
Eeh, eeh do it anyway
Eeh, eeh do it anyway
Eeh, eeh do it anyway
Know they tryna say you can't do it anyway
You ain't got no money in the bank, do it anyway
I know you failed a couple times, but that's alright
We don't care what they said, do it anyway"
