Whenever I get really ambitious I'll come back and make improvements; it's easy to miss details when there is just so much surface area. For now I'm happy to have this completed! It was interesting when I was trying to design guns I had tried more massive ones but couldn't make them work visually anywhere. That's one area where the Glave has a possible advantage still. I'm not sure if the Skulls are weapons or not. Possibly some kind of disrupter/ion cannons?
As seen in Northwest Portland. It's true that I pretty much shoot whatever I feel like shooting... landscapes, animals, portraits, flowers, cityscapes... and post accordingly. This isn't an image that will garner the kind of attention that a landscape would, but I like it, and that's really what this photography thing is all about, isn't it?
Taken with a Hasselblad 500 C/M.
This is how my Dead Leaves & the Dirty Ground upload from yesterady originally looked before I re-saturated it a bit.
I found it hard to fully make the plunge into black and white, I wasn't sure if people would get an image of mine that was completely without colour!
But, now, upon comparing the two, I firmly believe this is the stronger image.
This dramatic treatment suited the master photo as, due to bleak and overcast and generally gloomy weather conditions on the day I took the original shot, it did not have much color or brightness anyway!
Hope you all enjoy it!
This was my first view of the Milky Way in 2015. Several things led me to take this particular photo. First, the window to get these kind of photos is exceptionally small this time of year. But, after spending a couple of months couch-bound after two different elbow surgeries (one for each elbow), I was pretty highly motivated to get out of the house and try my luck.
Despite the daunting and downright ugly 2:15 am departure time, I was joined by Chip MacAlpine, a photographer motivated more by a love the outdoors and the night sky, not to mention a devotion to his art, than almost anyone else I know.
Although I had a good suspicion, I was still a little unsure of just exactly where the galactic center of the Milky Way was going to end up and whether Mt Hood's prominence would cover up some of it. I'm not going to lie--it was pretty exciting to watch the Milky Way slowly rise above the tree-covered horizon.
The title's an allusion to the location (Lost Lake) and the fact that I haven't seen this view of the Milky Way in quite a while. Welcome back, old friend.
A few years ago this area was on fire but today Mother Nature is in reclamation mode. Taken in the Antelope Lake area of CA
As you note from my photostream I don't shoot a lot of "decay", but this place was a photographer's candyland and I'm glad to have made the detour to come here.

The Old Forest Arboretum of Overton Park (172 acres) is a forest tract and natural arboretum located in Overton Park, Memphis, Tennessee.
Lacking anything better to post, this is from back in February, when it wasn't so hot that you had to wear swimming trunks to go out...
The last of the red ivy covering the old concrete building of the old teachers college near the lagoon in Palmerston North. It's making a good job of taking hold over the structure!

Microscale build made for the recent 1h build challenge on my Discord server The Workshop, themed "Reclamation".
On the topic of this build, applications for my latest community project "Atlas" - a post-apocalyptic map & points based RPG - are open until the 14th of July.
It's a 2-week testing phase so if you're interested in helping figuring out a balanced experience, feel free to join my Discord and apply there.
When nature reclaims a waterfall...It happens...This moderate sized waterfall is named Crane Falls...It's the last waterfall on Crane Creek at the southeastern end of the Winding Stairs Trail. There are campsites nearby and the creek flows under Tamassee Creek Rd at a picturesque setting into Lake Cherokee. From the road, a short hike on a trail up the creek on river-right brings you to a creek crossing where the trail continues across...The trail continues to the waterfall in about the same condition as you see here...Years ago, this waterfall was beautiful, however the trail and the falls have been forgotten by the forestry department. The 3.5 mile Winding Stairs Trail is still a popular hiking trail and as beautiful as you'll find anywhere, and so are the campsites. Above this waterfall, Crane Creek rises over a thousand feet in elevation through six additional cascading waterways: 2) The Cascades, 3) Secret Falls, 4) Deep Secret Falls (aka Crane Creek Falls); 5) Deep Dark Secret Falls (aka Yellow Jacket Falls), 6) Prospector Falls, 7) Deadfall Falls. Secret Falls drops some 80 plus feet and is situated in the narrow confines of the gorge in a barely visible location. The best time of year to see the full expanse of it is during Winter. The next three waterfalls, 4, 5, & 6 listed above are spectacular....beyond comprehension, ~but to get to these involves a dangerous steep, bushwhack down about 200 plus feet on the sloping ridgelines back and forth across the creek in the gorge. There are no trails. My friend Harmon and I are planning to hike to these early next Spring when the water is high. But back to Crane Falls...I love this creek, the gorge and the Winding Stairs Trail. I've driven the gravel forest road Tamassee Creek Road three times this year. I've hiked the Winding Stairs Trail 3 times and been to Secret Falls and another waterfall Miuka Falls on the other side of the trail. I'm hoping the DNR will clean up this waterfall and the trail leading to it. If not, I may show up with a few of my buddies with our chainsaws, grappling hooks and chains and take a couple of days to clean this up.
Four years can be spent doing many productive things. For example, I earned a DCS. That stands for Dominance Class Starfighter. The Reclamation has been reborn!
Tenitrious Sark stole the original Glave from Byron Lotton's family owned shipyard. It was a huge setback for Lotton Shipyards and Byron became obsessed with developing a new fighter just as good as the Glave. The first Reclamation was built and Byron wasted no time to start personally hunting Sark through the cosmos.
After many failed attempts, a well laid Turtle Mine sneak attack destroyed the Glave. At some point in the chaos of the attack, Sark was able to escape in his bubble cockpit run-about.
Byron thought he had won but Sark silently built a second Glave. The Glave II was on a totally new level of power and performance and with it, Sark attacked the Lotton Shipyards in a devastating display of dominance.
The Reclamation was destroyed and Byron was badly burned in the engulfing flames. His existence changed to one of bandages, pain and crazed hatred of Tenitrious Sark. He spent years in rehabilitation all the while hearing news about Sarks exploits with the Glave II which had somehow been upgraded even further since the attack on the shipyard. The time finally came to begin work on a new Reclamation but it would be a long four years before Byron could seek revenge on Tenitrious Sark.
An illustrative moment of the 798 artist's colony in Beijing. The site is a reused ammunition plant from the war, and it has a gritty nature to it. It's odd to see the jet-set art crew hanging around in the same place as people using horses and carts to move construction materials. Horse and buggy and bluetooth headsets on the same street!
More from my trip to Les Oakes Reclamation Yard in Cheadle. This is just one of the many sheds, and yes, they do all look like this.
The reason I call this, "Reclamation":
This image was taken during mid-day. I wasn't paying attention when I shot the image and as a result it was horribly under-exposed. Once I downloaded it I realized it kind of looked like a moonlite or sunrise/set image, so I played with the histogram and this is what I got.
All those light green shrub-like plants in the foreground are Tallow Trees, which are an invasive species here. They grow fast and spread like wildfire in open fields like this.
The old shed is native to Louisiana...*+^
What do you suppose we can hope to reclaim there after the apocalypse, and are we there yet? Texture by Christie Lacy.
Back to back SD60s muscle a train of Dresser, Wis., trap rock past the iconic old red barn at Donnybrook, N.D., which appears to be in a state of terminal decline. The train is on the home stretch to the Northern Plains Railroad interchange at Kenmare, where the rock will go toward capital projects on that regional railroad line.
