An air conditioning contractor going WAY beyond the safety limits of his step ladder. Still, if he did slip, I guess the concrete floor would break his fall.
(I'm not recommending this sort of craziness, I just happened to be there with my mobile phone... and, I'm a dyed-in-the-wool photographer... what can I say.)

History of the site:
After 40 years in business the Neptune Diner located in Astoria, Queens, NYC served its last meal on Sunday, July 29. 2024. The owners claimed they were not given a chance to renew their lease, because the property will soon be turned into a residential building.
Since 1983, The Katsihtis brothers have owned the building on Astoria Boulevard but not the land, which was sold in 2018 for over $10 million.
The brothers also had a 35-year lease which expired in 2019. But since then, they were not able to come to a long-term agreement with the landlord.

But that's what Long Island City/Astoria needs is another apartment building. It's already so overbuilt, it's ridiculous. Yet they keep tearing them down and building new ones, many of which are luxury rentals. The neighborhood is losing its character to steel and glass.

We were headed to my dad's farm in Alabama with 3 loads of hay. Everyone had their money on the above trailer load falling before it arrived. Surprisingly, all trucks/trailers made it without a single lost bale of hay!
The name of Atco is better known amongst keen gardeners who appreciate first-class lawnmowers. In 1939 the makers of Atco motor mowers (Charles H Pugh Ltd of Birmingham, now part of the Atco Qualcast Bosch Group) built around 500 of these miniature cars using 98cc Villiers two-stroke engines of the type normally found in their mowers.
At £35 each, Atco hoped to sell the cars to education authorities and conscientious parents as a training vehicle for children over the age of six, with the aim of improving standards of road safety and reducing the number of accidents.
Very much a real car scaled down, the Atco Junior incorporporated every feature necessary for training, including proper hand and foot brake controls, forward and reverse gears, and Ackermann steering. There was, however, no electrical equipment or suspension except for the pneumatic Dunlop tyres. Top speed was 10mph.
The standard colour scheme was lawnmower green, with red upholstery and black wings and wheels. Although the idea behind the Atco Junior was promising, the vehicle was not put back into production after the Second World War.

Our first Color It Safe drawing contest drew 15 awesome entries by the children of DAVIS employees! Entrants were invited to draw a picture of what their moms and dads (or grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc) do at work, while incorporating a safety-on-the-job theme – because as we all know, safety is DAVIS’ #1 core value! The winning drawing will be featured on jobsite safety posters and materials. #SafetyFirst #ColorItSafe #WorkWithTheBest
So I cut my hair at the weekend, and decided not to bother with product while it is so short. But this makes it much more susceptible to 'helmet hair' and that triple mohawk effect. Of course, I don't feel it most of the time, but when I checked the mirror this evening I understood why people were making comments about how I should go to the barbers and actually ask them to shave the flattened bits right off. Yuh, right.
Now, why this shot like this? Well, some people when they run out of time and have to do "just a quick shot tonight" still manage to make flippin' masterpieces (though in this case, Daz* can be forgiven, as he also had some great news to share). In my case, however, when I run out of time, you're going to get 30 seconds from me, the first shot out of the camera and not a lot of planning. Stupidly, I left it set to RAW, so this total non-masterpiece has at least been expertly dealt with by RawTherapee.
I got the Birmingham City Transport heritage bus for free from Snow Hill Queensway bus stop SQ3 to the Birmingham Museum Collection Centre on the last day of Birmingham Heritage Week.

My second time to BMCC in 6 years. Took advantage of this free bus service (although later walked back to the city centre to Eastside).

Following the formation of London Transport - the London Passenger Transport Board - in 1933, the undertaking set about a massive programme of investment, modernisation and expansion. One often over-looked change that was instituted was the widespread adoption of fixed bus stops across the Board's massive operating territories that covered red Central area and green Country area buses as well as Green line coaches.
Whereas trams, and their replacements the trolleybuses, had a stronger heritage of fixed stops the 'bus had traditionally been more 'flexible' in terms of where it could be hailed to board and alight. The centre of London had first seen serious experimentation with 'fixed' stops, and the design of the post and flag, in the early 1920s and by the late 1930s this programme was being rolled out across the rest of the city and out into the suburbs. This saw a change in the design of both post and flag with the concrete post, manufactured by LT at the Parsons Green workshops, and the flags themselves being re-designed by Hans Schleger in c.1935 to simplify them and that led to the later 'self-washing' "boat" design.
I have seen the publicity leaflets for the introduction of fixed stops along certain corridors and this leaflet is part of such a campaign. It offers a "set of hints for passengers" advising to signal the driver to show you wish to board the vehicle, the types of stops (request and compulsory) as well as hints on "Safety First".
The leaflet, from July 1938, is printed by the Shenval Press who would develop a reputation for fine work, and ends with the slogan "London Transport wants to serve". Sadly no designer is shown.
