Lovely rust with informative words on a old vehicle. McLean`s Auto Wreckers. Rockwood, Ontario. Canada. November 2012.
May 18: I need to start documenting this old house--all the things I love AND hate about it--before it comes down. This is our garage door--which by next year will have reverted to the original two garage doors, probably automatic. No padlock, for sure. This padlock is a decoy--and not much of one, since it's typically hanging open like this. (Do we even know the combination? I don't; maybe David does.) If anyone wanted to break in, they'd have no problem. Well, especially since we don't lock our doors. I wonder if we'll start locking our doors when the house doesn't look like itinerant workers live in it?

Bokeh Thursday: Rust...on our Clematis trellis... just one lone bloom left - wish there had been more.
The light from the flash creates a visibility gradient depth-wise into the shot and the flares in the distance are intriguing, yet unsettling details. This unreliable lighting challenges our perception of the urban infrastructure because in reality, the city is rust.
"SHAME!" was the cry I heard, yet when I looked all I could see was a drum almost eaten away by rust. Then from one of the holes waddled a platypus.
She introduced herself as Tuppence. "G'day" I replied.
She told me, she was on a crusade to rid the Australian landscape of trash and wanted my help to recurit as many people as I was able. She said she would recruit her fellow natives.
What else could I say to a charming young platypus than "yes".
There are big airstrips all over the Bahamas that were, I was told, built by the US Army for, well, just in case. It looks like one of the bulldozers used to make the Governor's Harbour airstrip on Eleuthera was just driven off the end of the runway. Was this an attempted burial at sea? Did some enlisted man go on a bender and do some drunk driving? Did a hurricane give this beast a PUSH over the edge?
I wonder...
Note to those @ The Altar of Junk:
I'm offering these up here, not because my photography is any damn good (and hell, not only was this taken with a point & shoot, but also an underwater one and we were swimming for about four hours and had popped up on the beach to stretch some different muscles, so there was salt water dried on the lens)
... but I'm posting these here because, well, mah junk is worthy. This rusted-out bulldozer is fabulous! It transcends my amateur snapshot presentation.
Former steel plant built in 1963. This factory produced mainly steel coils. With a capacity of 3,5 million tons of steel per year with its continuous casting process, the factory was supplied with liquid cast iron by torpedo cars arriving directly from blast furnaces. Although closed, the site remains intact with all its machineries, converters, overhead cranes and other steel ladles. Here are some pictures of my visit in this monster of steel of colossal dimensions.
Ancienne aciérie construite en 1963 et produisant principalement du coil d'acier (tôles en bobine). Disposant d'une capacité de 3,5 million de tonnes d'acier par an en coulée continue, l'usine était fournie en fonte liquide par des wagons-torpilles arrivant directement depuis des hauts-fourneaux. Aujourd'hui désaffecté, le site demeure intact avec l'ensemble de ses machineries, convertisseurs, ponts roulants et autres poches d'acier. Visite et photos de ce monstre d'acier aux proportions colossales.
