Closeup of a stack of aluminum pans at the local supermarket in Pasadena, California. Aluminum, which is pretty much taken for granted in 2016, has only been widely available in the last century or so as a material for common use.

It is what you think it is, just let your imagination fly. An atomic bomb, a jelly fish?: it's just light and dark sands pushed about by wave and tide on Fascadale beach, and some frothy spume.

The manufacturing of atom bombs is no easy task. You pull the wrong lever, and before you know it you're an irradiated lump lying on the lab floor. And somebody's gotta do the cleanup...

So, when I saw this skin at Epiphany, I just wanted it! I'm not even wearing a Catwa head in general right now! So... here is the Lumi skin (Rare) in Creme available at the Epiphany!
(No added makeup, and worn on the Catya head)
I happened upon this blast from the past (Pun Intended) on West Marine Drive in Astoria, Oregon. The Ragtop Nash Metropolitan is a car I've always wanted to drive and the day I photographed this would have been perfect.
This was taken at 01:00 at night. And this is dark actually because of the clouds that were very thick. Otherwise it is like day time.
Got these from the icky estate sale yesterday. I was expecting her to price them at about 10 bucks a piece (a canister set was $65!), but they were a buck fifty. So I got them.
There is one store and one bar in Atomic City; the store no longer sells gasoline, due to new laws pertaining to its underground gas tanks. Most of the people who were raised in the town have now passed on, and many of the current residents are retired. There is an RV park on the south end of town with full hook-ups, and stock car races are held in the summer.pop.25
The Hiroshima Peace Memorial, also known as the Genbaku Dome, Atomic Bomb Dome or A-Bomb Dome, was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996. The ruin serves as a memorial to the people who were killed in the atomic bombing of Hiroshima on 6 August 1945. Over 70,000 people were killed instantly, and another 70,000 suffered fatal injuries from the radiation.
At 8:15 a.m. on 6 August 1945, the first atomic bomb to be used in war was dropped by the United States Army Air Forces from the Enola Gay, a B-29 bomber. The force of the atomic bomb effectively obliterated the city of Hiroshima, Japan.
The building was the only structure left standing near the bomb’s hypocenter.
On August 6, 1945 the nuclear weapon Little Boy was dropped on Hiroshima by the crew of the Enola Gay, directly killing an estimated 80,000 people and completely destroying approximately 68% of the city's buildings.[1] In the following months, an estimated 60,000 more people died from injuries or radiation poisoning. [2][3] Since 1945, several thousand more hibakusha have died of illnesses caused by the bomb. After the nuclear attack, Hiroshima was rebuilt and the closest surviving building to the location of the bomb's detonation was designated the Genbaku Dome (原爆ドーム) or "Atomic Dome", a part of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. The city government continues to advocate the abolition of all nuclear weapons.

Did some rework on a old photo i took in the summer- www.urbantoronto.ca/news/2014/10/urbanations-q3-results-s...
An atomical blonde in a blue dress that asked me about my photography has had her main part in this photo
Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Dome, 原爆ドーム、広島
It seems I'm more of a night time photographer after all :). I tried to find an interesting angle during the day but in the end the place seemed a lot more interesting after the sun had sunk below the horizon.
やっぱり夜の写真家かもしれません、私。昼の間に写真を撮ってみたですが、日没後、原爆ドームと周りのエリアはもっと面白くなると思いました。
Orford Ness with it's fascinating military history from the early 1900's and the development of the first British Fighter Aircraft and radar, through WWII with bomb testing and aircraft integrity and airframe resilience testing and the continuation of the development of radar, from 1946 until it's closure in 1971 the AWRE (Atomic Weapons Research Establishment) tested Britain's independent nuclear deterrent and from the early 1960's to 1973 a joint UK/USA secret base was built to test the feasibility of Over The Horizon Radar (OTH). With its closure and semi dereliction the National Trust along with Universities and other groups are looking after not only the historic site but maintaining and developing the area as an important nature reserve and area of geological interest.
Loved this place, fascinating and one of the best visits we have experienced.
I took an hour today to drive out north of town to track down a little-known but very important facility critical to timekeeping in the USA.
WWVB is a time signal radio station near Fort Collins, Colorado and is operated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). The station relies on extremely precise atomic clocks for the accuracy of the time signals. It sends out signals that allow millions of clocks and watches to be set either manually or automatically.
WWVB continuously broadcasts digital time codes, using very long electromagnetic waves at a frequency of 60 kilohertz, which are automatically received by timekeeping devices in North America, keeping them accurate to a fraction of a second. In 2011, NIST estimated the number of radio clocks and wristwatches equipped with a WWVB receiver at over 50 million.
Some argue the terrestrial time signal have been rendered obsolete by the government’s Global Positioning System, whose satellites also transmit time signals, but users disagree, noting GPS devices must have an unobstructed view of a number of satellites in space to properly function. Sixty kilohertz permeates in a way GPS can’t. WWVB’s very low frequency signal can be received inside buildings and it is an important backup to GPS in case adversaries attempt to interfere with the satellite radio-navigation system.
The broadcast is on a number of shortwave frequencies, meaning their signals can be received globally.
