In a sprawling industrial warehouse, workers are seen managing a massive inventory of blue chemical drums and containers without any visible Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). Despite the inherent risks of handling industrial-grade containers—which may contain hazardous residues or toxic fumes—the laborers are working without gloves, masks, or safety helmets. This scene highlights a critical gap in industrial safety standards, where the physical demands of high-volume logistics often take precedence over worker protection. Ensuring proper safety protocols is essential to prevent long-term health issues and accidental exposure in such high-risk environments.
I often marvel about how, when we freeze time with a camera we are able to capture a single moment, a mere fraction of a second. In that moment, we are mining gems that would have otherwise remained concealed. Imagine if, on this day in April 2015, I had been slow on the shutter, or I had left even five minutes before. Maybe I hadn’t been out there at all. Still now, five years later, this is one of my favorite memories from my time at Brick Pond. In my mind I remember the encounter, if enshrouded in the vagueness brought on by the years in between. But this one brief exchange is magnified by its timelessness through photography. How lucky I am to have this memory, solidified by this image. April 18, 2015 Hoping that you are all safe and able to connect with your distant loved ones through telephone, social media or other means. If we keep doing the right thing, soon enough we will be back together and creating new and even more poignant moments. Don't forget to freeze a few with your camera, to relive a week, month and even five years from now. Stay safe!

The CSIRO Investigator is the primary research ship for marine studies in Australia. It makes regular trips into the Southern Ocean. Here it is moored outside the CSIRO headquarters on the Hobart Waterfront. The title is a nod to that large sign that reminds all sailors to be careful when on board.
therefore the motorcycle helmet is the first one ;-)
Thank you everyone for your visit, favorites, invites and comments.
Red Flags are lifted to show the status of the tide. When red flag is hoisted no one should go for a beach bath. Only take the Bath when it is high tide. Low tide will wash you out to the sea and High tide will drive you to the beach. Shot taken at Dubai beach.

As temperatures warm up on the northern prairie, the Richardson's Ground Squirrels have surfaced in search of food. Despite the snowy terrain here, there are lots of bare patches where they can find dried grasses and edible roots.
These are back to back frames at 7 fps, and you can see the little rodent's reaction time. In the approximately 0.14 seconds between frames, he has heard the shutter go off and reacted with a headlong dive to safety. This quickness is the key to survival, because the coyotes, badgers, hawks, and eagles are hungry, too.
The EXIF data won't reveal much because the original shots were moved to a blank canvas for this diptych. I used my new Nikon D850 and the 200-500mm + 1.4x teleconverter. ISO 400, 1/2500 at f/8. Bean bag over the window sill of the rolling red Toyota car blind.

Early one morning at Newton Lake, I came around a corner and surprised about 30 Mule Deer, a mixed herd of does and yearlings, that were grazing the sagebrush flats. They must have felt trapped between the lake and my car; they prefer the safety of the hills on the other side of the road. Within a few seconds they were on the run, leaping and bounding to get away. I just shot from my car window. Mule Deer are the most common large mammal in these parts, so they aren't really high on my shoot list, but I know that I'm spoiled. Great light, great action, no complaints!

This really was a joy to behold actually being here and to witness one of the most incredible sunsets at Trebarwith that I have had the privilege to see over the last two or three years, what nature is able to bring to us never ceases to amaze me.
However us tog’s are never satisfied, and in an ideal situation the shot at high tide here would have been from down in the gully, capturing the cascading seawater running off the spine of the rock that leads down to the beach.
The factor preventing this was very strong onshore winds coupled with a very high tide thus creating 15 to 20 feet waves.
Just some safety advice for any of you who go to photograph this location, the north coast sea conditions are so unpredictable, and if you are in the gully it is not possible to see the rogue waves that come in over the top with such force, I have seen on more than one occasion togs and their camera equipment completely knocked over, then taking the long very wet walk back to the car park.
So as I did on this evening and others like it, the advice is head to the higher ground so it is possible to see the unpredictable incoming waves.
Thank you for looking, your faves and comments are very much appreciated.😎
It was getting late and the afternoon shadows were long when we finished a snowshoe hike in the Tobermory area. After driving around the Big Tub Harbor to check out the lighthouse, we were surprised to see no ice on the water at all. Looking around for something else to photograph, I noticed the sun just behind the structure itself and thought it would be interesting to position it right about where the light would be located. However, the sunlight was so intensely bright, I couldn't safely spend enough time to compose it properly. Instead, I wound up bobbing and weaving between the shadows and the light to minimize the exposure to my eye and try for a few quick shots. Thankfully, no one else was around to watch my antics as I'm sure they would have had a good laugh
Industrial electric light. It is supposed to be water proof. In fact, it's half-full with rainwater. An electric bulb is half-submerged, and works, and shines under water. Crazy surreal real life. Street photo.
This small castle is located not far from my home.
Here the fog had already started to roll in from the Left and after just a few minutes, the small castle has completely disappeared.
Out last evening with Jill (Jill's Junk) to try and capture for our first time lighting steel wool ... my hubby was a trooper to swing it for us....the location we chose was a bit hard to get a compostion without a street light but once we were there, we decided to stick with it because it wasn't as windy in this spot at the time...
