I took this shot to get a closer look at the bottom left corner of the web on the adjacent shot, and how is had been attached to that lower twig to give the square, our cuboid shape of the overall structure. To think that you could just stumble through that unthinkingly, and destroy it, after all that engineering skill and work.

Bridge to Nowhere is a nickname used to refer to various unfinished structures around the M8 motorway in the centre of Glasgow, Scotland. They were built in the 1960s as part of the Glasgow Inner Ring Road project but left incomplete for several years. The Anderston Footbridge, a pedestrian bridge south of St Patrick's church, was finally completed in 2013 as part of a walking and cycling route
Structure Fire this was practice burn by local firemen, they managed to destroy the whole building safely, shot in North Carolina.
Back to when I got to Worthing pier when low tide coincided with the sunset.
Here I made my way out to nearly the end of the pier to capture the only bit of cloud that we had seen that day but the colours of the sky were lovely.
The pier added my foreground interest and the light on the foreground rocks was amazing too.
I have been out shooting some images in the mist this morning including shooting my fave tree near Upper Beeding which will be a monthly project.

The dream of every citizen of the former German Democratic Republic: a Trabant car from Sachsenring. Front-wheel drive, two-stroke engine, thermoset body and often ordered in sky blue with pleasure. In 1976 the Trabant provided 47% of all cars used in the GDR. The dream usually lasted a very long time – there was often over 10 years of waiting. Then there was great joy for the mobility that was finally gained. However, this model was sometimes delivered without a steering wheel. You had to get that to really get going :-)
The Trabant is nicknamed "racing cardboard" because of the body made of pressed paper (soaked in phenol resin), which is reinforced with short cotton fibers.

Der Traum eines jeden Bürgers der ehemaligen Deutschen Demokratischen Republik: ein Auto des Types Trabant von Sachsenring. Frontantrieb, Zweitaktmotor, Duroplastkarosserie und gern in Himmelblau bestellt. 1976 stellte der Trabant 47 % aller in der DDR genutzten PKW. Der Traum währte meist sehr lange – es gab oft über 10 Jahre Wartezeit. Dann gab es große Freude für die endlich gewonnene Mobilität. Allerdings wurde dieses Modell auch mal ohne Lenkrad ausgeliefert. Das musste man sich dann noch besorgen, um wahrhaftig loszudüsen :-)
Wegen der aus Baumwollkurzfasern verstärkten Karosserie aus gepresstem Phenol-Harz-getränkten Papier) trägt der Trabant auch den Spitzname "Rennpappe".

Metropol Parasol is a wooden structure located at La Encarnación square, in the old quarter of Seville, Spain. It was designed by the German architect Jürgen Mayer and completed in April 2011. It has dimensions of 150 by 70 metres (490 by 230 ft) and an approximate height of 26 metres (85 ft) and claims to be the largest wooden structure in the world. Its appearance, location, delays and cost overruns in construction resulted in much public controversy. The building is popularly known as Las Setas de la Encarnación (Incarnation's mushrooms).
The structure consists of six parasols in the form of giant mushrooms ("Las setas" in Spanish), whose design is inspired by the vaults of the Cathedral of Seville and the ficus trees in the nearby Plaza de Cristo de Burgos. Metropol Parasol is organized in four levels. The underground level (Level 0) houses the Antiquarium, where Roman and Moorish remains discovered on site are displayed in a museum. Level 1 (street level) is the Central Market. The roof of Level 1 is the surface of the open-air public plaza, shaded by the wooden parasols above and designed for public events. Levels 2 and 3 are the two stages of the panoramic terraces (including a restaurant), offering one of the best views of the city centre. ~ Wikipedia
The photographs over the next few days are all Infra Red and taken with my converted compact camera. Since Infra Red applies to a limited band in the electromagnetic spectrum (720nms to 1mm), and invisible to the naked eye, these photographs provide us with a glimpse into a parallel world to the one we can see. Here the IR makes the forest structure look like the living organism that it is. It's very reminiscent of the structure of blood vessels for instance.
Unlike the cyanotype method which goes back 180 years to the dawn of photography, Infra Red photography specifically dates from the publication of American physicist Robert Wood's IR photographs in the February 1910 edition of "The Century Magazine" and in the October 1910 edition of the "Royal Photographic Society Journal". Wood took an otherwise scientific process of spectrography and adapted it to capture landscapes. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_W._Wood
