Former gunpowder and dynamite factory built in 1879 somewhere in Belgium. This site is where powder and explosives were made, in particular for a use in the mines. The site was sold and demilitarized in 1990 after the bankruptcy of its company.
Spread over about ten hectares secretly hidden in the forest, the "factory" is subdivided into approximately fifty buildings isolated from each other. The reason of this isolation? Simply to avoid chain explosions in case of accident.
Among all these buildings, there are workshops, laboratories and testing rooms, as well as administration and machinery buildings, and also warehouses. The site is also provided with a central heating network distributed towards all the buildings through above-ground insulated conducts.
Discovering the site is comparable to a long and pleasant stroll in the forest, but we have to admit that most of the instruments and working accessories are gone and many buildings are now empty.
Besides, the site is polluted and many nitrophilous plants took a malicious pleasure in regaining control of the place, even growing inside the houses.

Ancienne poudrerie et dynamiterie belge construite en 1879. À ne pas confondre avec la poudrière (soit le "magasin à poudre"), ce site était une usine de fabrication de poudre et explosifs, destinés notamment à un usage dans les mines. Le site fut revendu et démilitarisé en 1990 suite à la faillite de la société.
Étalée sur une bonne dizaine d'hectares enfouis secrètement dans la forêt, "l'usine" se subdivise en (approximativement) une cinquantaine de bâtiments isolés les uns des autres. La raison de cet isolement? Simplement pour éviter des explosions en chaîne en cas d'accident de travail.
Parmi tous ces bâtiments, on retrouve des ateliers, laboratoires et salles de test, ou encore des bâtiments administratifs, de machinerie et des entrepôts. Le site est également muni d'un réseau de chauffage central redistribué vers tous les bâtiments via des conduites aériennes à parois isolantes.
Si la visite du site constitue une longue et agréable balade en forêt, force est de constater qu'il reste peu d'instruments et accessoires de travail dans les bâtiments.
Le site étant par ailleurs pollué par des ingrédients (comme le nitrate) qui servaient à la fabrication de la poudre, les plantes nitrophiles ont depuis lors pris un malin plaisir à se ré-approprier les lieux, allant jusqu'à pousser à l'intérieur des maisons.

Powder coating is cheap! It really turns out as well. We milled all of the bushings and a few other parts at home.
Day 10
Today Madison raced in her Girl Scout Powder puff derby. The car really was a family project. Daddy and Madison designed it and a neighbor did the cutting. Madison painted it while I printed and added the Pokemon decorations to the car. madison added the final coat of decoupage. She won her first race but came in second in her semi final and consolation races. She didn't seem upset at the loss and stayed to cheer on her troop mates. One of her friends, Delaney got the best of show with her beautiful Cinderella car.

I finally finished processing the photos from a band shoot I did a couple weeks ago, and I think they're going to like them! This was my favorite of the bunch. This was taken at Alviso Marina County Park, which is at the bottom of the San Francisco Bay.
The band is really worth checking out if you like rock, blues, and soul. They're recording an EP right now, I think, and they have some tracks up on their Myspace: www.myspace.com/powdertrain
I can't wait to do more band portraits. :)

I have a flickr account for work where I will be much more specific regarding the project.
Here I'm just showing my flickr friends slices of my life.
The next couple of months are going to be ALL about work. Work work work. Like - that's it.
Which is PRECISELY what I've been saying out loud "life in my 40s" was going to be like, and *BOOM* here's the proof.
My photostream is going to reflect this orientation.
