Lesley Barrett, an Australian artist, asked to use one of my photos for a maritime art show. She uses scratch board as her medium. I am just amazed at the result, and she agreed to let me share it with you all on Flickr.
Allow me to introduce you to Barrett (named after Barrett Creek in the Daintree). He is a big Alpha male at least 4.5 m long and somewhere around 50 years old. If you look closely, you will see that Barrett is missing the end of his tail so is longer than the estimated length.
Crocodiles are solitary animals and they don’t have friends. There are two alpha males in this stretch of the Daintree, Barrett and Lumpy. Lumpy caught a cow for dinner. He left it submerged in the river. Crocodiles clamp down on prey with their massive jaws, crush it and then swallow the prey whole. They cannot chew or break off pieces. So when they take a large animal that can’t swallow whole, they leave it submerged to rot and break down.
However, Barrett decided he couldn't resist a free meal he didn’t have to work. So, he stole the cow while Lumpy wasn’t attending his catch and took it down the river. A crocodile’s sense of smell is extremely well developed and they can smell rotting carcasses from a great distance. Lumpy, as angry as a crocodile can be, went looking for Barrett to retrieve his kill.
He found the culprit.
A fight ensured.
Lumpy got his cow back and Barrett lost the end of his tail.
At the entrance of our capitals harbour there is a reef on the western side seen here beside the ferry to the South Island. Back in 1968 there was a very bad storm and the Wahine ferry was swept onto the rocks. Of 734 passengers and crew 51 died that day.
Taken from the Seatoun side where many rescuers stood by unable to help.
Another overpass on the Elbow Lake Sub, another nice spring morning in April 2010, and another eastbound train 496. This time, SOO 6025 is leading the way, working around the curve and up the grade east of Barrett.
Damn, this thing has kill too much time of mine.
Major thanks to Stirling and Blue Commando

The Mamie S. Barrett was built as a towboat at the Howard Shipyard in Jefferson, Indiana for the Barrett line. She is 146 feet long and 30 feet wide.
She was sold to the Army Corp of Engineers in 1923 and sent to Florence, Alabama in 1935 and used as an inspection boat.
In 1942, she would serve as headquarters for President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
In 1947, the Mamie S. Barrett was sold to Volman Brothers Construction company and later sold to Spencer Merrills as a clubhouse and restaurant for the Harbor Point Yacht club of Weston Alton, Missouri.
In 1981, she was sold to Dick Oberle and moved to Eddyville, Kentucky, restored and served as a restaurant on the Cumberland River. In 1983 the boat was added to the National Historic Registry. Just a few years later, in 1987 the Mamie S. Barret was purchased by John and Mary Houseman and brought to Vicksburg, Mississippi and converted to a showboat complete with a 120 person theater on the main deck and a restaurant on the second deck. These mark the last of the Glory Days of the Mamie S. Barrett. She was purchased in 1990 to use as a casino but this plan never materialized. The Mississippi River flood of 1993 landed the boat on dry land pretty much right where it now sits.
Night, near full moon, 300 second exposure, protomachines flashlight set to gold, aquamarine and a shot of white.
UPDATE: May of 2017 the boat caught on fire, some of it remains but the upper portion of the boat was badly damaged.

Theres several weapons I've always had a huge love for, one of them being the Barrett M82A1, I had the honor of getting this beauty at BFVA17, naturally I had to make a little post for it.
The weapon dates all the way back to 2009, back during the golden era of Flickr. She's really one of a kind, hand overmolded by Will himself and again I could not be more ecstatic to have it for my faction.
Its safe to say I sure do miss all the fun, can't wait for next year! Also a huge thank you too Danny for some cool figure shooting techniques!
Based off of the 98 Bravo (title is inside joke).
This is to everybody that thinks it looks too much like the HCSR. I rest my case.
nrhp # 85001819- Roosevelt Hall is a community auditorium and gymnasium building in Barrett, Minnesota, in Grant County. The building was built by the Civil Works Administration, a predecessor of the Works Progress Administration, in 1934. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985 for being one of the few buildings built by the CWA in Minnesota. The CWA made it possible for small communities such as Barrett to build architecturally sophisticated buildings at a low cost. The building has also served as a social, cultural, and educational center for the community.[2]
The building is built of wood frame construction and measures 42 feet (13 m) wide by 110 feet (34 m) long. It is faced with western red cedar clapboard siding, and topped with a gabled roof with wood shingles. The interior originally had a wooden gymnasium floor, a 19 feet (5.8 m) by 30 feet (9.1 m) stage, and a 41 feet (12 m) by 44 feet (13 m) balcony.[2]
The gymnasium was once used by the local public school, but after they built their own gymnasium in the early 1950s, the hall's use began to decline. The original stage was removed in 1957, and the building housed a bowling alley for 14 years. It then housed a youth center in 1973-1974, and it was used as an insulation manufacturing plant from 1977 through 1979. The building is now used by the Prairie Wind Players, a community theater group. The theater group built a proscenium stage in the early 1980s. In 2004, the lobby was gutted and remodeled, with new restrooms and new ticket booths.
