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.

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.

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.

That's the first thing I think of when I see this image. We should all wear safety goggles when we ride our tricycle ;)
edited with m4h Bohemiam...love the tones in this action.
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.
In de haven van Amsterdam gespot, een wildplassende tanker in de schemering. Het moet niet gekker worden.
Andy and his eboard stopped for a photo on a perfect spring day for looping Lake Monona. I had crossed paths with Andy at an intersection earlier in my ride and was grateful to catch up with him at a more quintessentially Madison spot. As he was taking selfies, I asked if he'd like a photo by me and told him of my (608)strangers project and how I thought he'd make an excellent addition. He agreed and with only two clicks of the shutter, I had a keeper.
As I still run the traditional human powered bicycle (non ebike), I am with the majority of those who use the trails around town that oftentimes grow frustrated with reckless use of the path by a variety of electric transports, observing high speeds and passing without warning. While Andy uses an electric skateboard, from my observations and conversation with him he's definitely doing his part to erase that stigma with every interaction he makes. I made sure to let him know that I appreciate the effort, and only hope that more can follow his suit.
