Taken for ODC: RESOLUTION, the topic for Wednesday Jan 1 2014
As tornado sirens were going off for a few hours we took shelter in our basement. In the background my wife can be seen checking the tornado reporting on our the local tv stations. Luckily we did not get hit, but some other nearby towns were not so lucky. I had my Leica M9 with me and took this photo to document the moment.
A little shot at Bahamas Memories resort
The Bahamas became an independent Commonwealth realm in 1973, retaining Queen Elizabeth II as its monarch. In terms of gross domestic product per capita, the Bahamas is one of the richest countries in the Americas (following the United States and Canada). Its economy is based on tourism and finance.[10]

In November 2005, I took an AMTRAK Train from Tampa Union Station in Florida to Hamlet, North, Carolina to attend a Summer Convention of the ACL/SAL Historical Society in and around the Hamlet Area Hamlet Metro Area, One of the sites we visited was CSX Hump Classification Yard Hamlet.
Tower Mailing Address: 127 CSX Drive, Marks Creek, NC 28345"
This Yard is relies on Gravity, a Ladder of Switches and Speed Retarders to assemble trains destined for all parts of the US and Canada on an assortment of tracks, one track for each destination. or Intermediate Yard.In addition to the Posters & Signs, a no longer used caboose, now serves as a place for Safety Classes and Safety Signs.
These particular photographs show some of the Safety Alerting Signs all over the CSX Yard.
SAFETY is a BIG Concern in the Railroad Industry and Yards are particularly dangerous, not only due of all the traffic, but also particularly Coupling & Uncoupling Railcars, Trowing Switches, Checking the Bills of Lading for the contents being shipped,limited space, minimal Lines of Sight, setting & releasing Hand Brakes, etc. Lack of Attention, can be Fatal ! Consequently there are numerous Safety Signs, Classes, and Accident Tracking Billboards !
Pandemic Self Care. Processing pics from the boneyard (my “vault” that stores pics I have taken, but never processed and/or posted). Stay safe everyone.

Accidents do happen and such unfortunate events are often beyond our control. But we do need to take all measures within our reach to avoid such tragedies as frequently in the future.
Swimming is NOT just a recreational sport for Maldivian children. It is a part of life and needs to be taught along with proper Water Safety and First Aid to school children of ALL ages. It is NOT an option. It is a matter of life and death!
Teach your child how to swim... TODAY!!
I hope these instructions are clear; please follow them carefully.
Saw this sign recently in the old grain elevator. Am thinking it would look very nice framed and hung on my bathroom wall.

How could this splinter happen to a robust fence? Unlikely that some bicycle went out of control and crashed...

Taken for the Active Assignment Weekly! group. This week's assignment: Newton's laws of motion
So my second submission this week features pretty much the same theme but I was forced to give the owner of the brick stones a star role in this one. He wanted to do the stunt all by himself, so all I could do was giving him as much protection as possible...
What it took:
Explaining little Prozac05 again and again that he may not start drilling before daddy gives a "GO!". Once I did it, I bet he was pretty surprised how fast the whole thing came down (due to the help of my little friend "string" once again...). Post-processing wise I enhanced the colors and contarts even more and added a vignette to make you focus on the middle of the screen.

Those of us who recall the BBC's "Woodentops" may take a second look at this as the figures illustrated in this 1923 LGOC (part of the then London Underground Group) safety leaflet do look a bit similar! The artist V M Macdonald was commissioned by the Underground Group for several works at this time, including posters. This leaflet shows and warns of the danger of a variety of road traffic and similar situations.
On the water front, near to the harbour, a preserved and interesting old garage-cum-petrol station converted from a pilchard store.
It owes its survival to an inhabitant of St Mawes, Brenda Pye, who in 1976 made it into an artists' studio. She subsequently donated it to the St. Mawes Gig Club. It now serves as the club's boathouse.
This petrol pump still stands alongside what was the garage forecourt. It harks back to a time when an attendant, usually in overalls, would appear on your arrival and top up your tank as required.
This pump hails from the 1920s and has been preserved with help from Shell Petroleum.
Also great to see the early AA sign attached to the garage's wall. Most of these signs were removed during WW2 in a bid to confuse any unwelcome visitors that might land on our shores.
