The way I am conceiving this scene, Nolan (played by Conan Bankersbox) is returned from seeking a resolution for Melanda's problem, but Melanda believes the only thing to do is to break up with Nolan and leave him. As you can see from photo 4, the breakup isn't an easy one for either side....

November 7, 1977..................
At least 37 persons, most of them students and their families asleep at a small Bible college, died early today when an earthen dam burst and sent a 30-foot wall of red water smashing through the campus.
The breakup of the dam at about 1:30 a.m. sent tons of water over 187-foot-high Toccoa Falls onto the lower campus of Toccoa Falls Institute, where some 250 people lived in dormitories, houses and mobile homes.
Authorities said several people were reported missing and more than 40 had been injured. The dam, built in 1940, was on the Army Corps of Engineers' hazardous list.
Surviving students at the college prayed at an emotional service later today while law enforcement officers and civil defense workers searched the debris for bodies.
First Lady Rosalynn Carter, informed of the disaster while attending church services in Washington with the President, hurriedly flew in a presidential jet to a small airport near Toccoa. Mrs. Carter said she would try to comfort the victims and had "a lot" of friends in the area.
Kenny Carroll of Washington, D.C., one of the few to escape from the basement of a men's dormitory, said: "The Lord woke me up an instant before the water came in.
"I reached over from my bed and was trying to slit the door, but the water forced the door open. When I got out of bed, the water was already a foot high. We ran up the stairs and by the time we got there the whole basement was filled up. It just happened in five or six seconds."
Dave Hinkle, from Syracuse, N.Y., said a wave 30 feet high and 40 feet wide pound into the dorm's second-story windows. The four-story building was extensively damaged, and at least eight faculty houses were destroyed.
Bodies were found as far as two miles from the site of the dam, which held back 80 acre Kelley Barnes Lake.
The dam break came after two days of torrential rains. The skies in northern Georgia were partly cloudy today and at times the sun shore brightly on the devastated campus.
Bill Stacy, 19, who lived with his parents in a trailer, said: "I heard a bunch of people screaming and hollering. There was this terrible screeching noise . . . The trailers were all over the place - some floating, some just came apart."
Gov. George Busbee, who flew to Toccoa, said the state would begin monitoring "as of this moment" 84 dams in Georgia that have been classified as highly hazardous by the Corps of Engineers. The classification does not mean that a dam is defective, but that a rupture would cause considerable loss of life and property.
Busbee said the dams would be examined, not because they posed imminent danger, but because of the recent heavy rainfall.
He said the state would investigate the Toccoa break, but that "this is no time to start blaming anyone."
The president of the college, Kenn Opperman, said the dam, weakened by several days of hard rain, had been inspected recently. However, he didn't know whether any government agency took part in the inspection.
"We had some flash flooding and as a result of that we inspected the dam," he said. "I'm of the opinion that it was a routine inspection."
The creek had risen to near flood stage Saturday night, and three volunteer firemen were advising area residents to leave as a precaution. Two of the firemen were killed when the dam broke.
Eldon Elsberry, the lone survivor of the trio, said, "I looked up and I saw red water that was really starting to move" down Toccoa Creek. "We ran and got into a jeep. We were going to turn the sirens on the wake the people up. We didn't get to the bridge."
The jeep was swamped, pitching Elsberry and his companions into chest-high water.
"The truck was starting to slide and we knew we couldn't get over the bridge," Elsberry said. He said he grabbed a tree, "and when the tree gave way, I grabbed a breath of air. My right foot got caught when I tried to take my boots off."
Elsberry said he was swept 125 feet downstream. He grabbed a tree and scrambled up onto the bank to safety.
The dam and lake are on property owned by the college, and water from the lake normally filters down a scenic, 187-foot rock drop known as Toccoa Falls. It then runs into a creek, which meanders through the campus of the nondenominational school, which has about 600 students and faculty and is operated by the Christian and Missionary Alliance of Nyack, N.Y.
The college's residential buildings were on a lower part of the campus at the foot of the falls. Classrooms and administration buildings are on higher ground.
Opperman said water spilled over the dam a year ago, causing $100,000 damage to roads and the grounds, but that he knew of no trouble with the dam in his 38 months at the school.
A school spokesman said the dam once provided water and electric power for the school. In recent years, the lake was used only for recreation.
City officials shut off water and natural gas to the 9,000 residents of Toccoa as a precaution against disease and fire.
Rosalynn Carter toured the flood area in a helicopter and later met with reporters.
"Jimmy wanted me to come here to express his concern," she said. "The federal government will cooperate in any way possible under the law," to provide aid.
"It is a terrible tragedy. You have my support and Jimmy's support as you rebuild."
Asked about the dam being on the "high hazard" list, she said, "Sometimes it takes a tragedy to make us do things we should have done before."
The First Lady planned to visit 12 hospitalized survivors before flying back to Washington. Presidential assistant Greg Schneiders said he would spend the night in the area.
In the last five years, there have been two serious dam collapses in the United States. When the Buffalo Creek Dam in West Virginia collapsed in 1972, 118 persons died. And on June 5, 1975, the 305-foot Teton Dam in Idaho - also earthen - burst and sent 80 billion gallons of water into surrounding farmland. Eleven persons died.

Start of breakup on the Klondike River,30k east of Dawson. This is a sure sign its spring/ And such a beautiful day too.
Spring meltwater upwelling over the ice, then re-freezing at night... and the Robertson River takes on this turquoise blue color typical of spring breakup. The color is due to the great density of the ice, very little air present.
Yes! at long last we have an indication that spring will (eventually) arrive at our door step: ice has begun to break up on the surface of the river just north of Montreal. Yeepee!
(tonight's view from my balcony :-)
And here I am shooting them, ruing this date... or casual meeting, or breakup, I guess... or whatever this is?
Spring is here, the ice is breaking, the whales and geese are back and the temperature is hovering around -5c. Its a great time of year here for those that like to be outside!

Steve, having a background in traditional sign hand-lettering, immediately thought of going down the line of a fairground “galloper” horse, or old circus advertisement. This linked in with the tale of Lizzie who was originally a circus elephant before working in the steel mills during the war. The elephant was designed originally by Blundells competition winner 11 year old Amy Parker.

Summer 2016, a herd of elephant sculptures descended on Sheffield for the biggest public art event the city has ever seen!
58 elephant sculptures, each uniquely decorated by artists, descended on Sheffield’s parks and open spaces, creating one of the biggest mass participation arts events the city has ever seen. Did you find them all?
The trail of elephants celebrates Sheffield’s creativity with over 75% of artists from the city. Some well-known names include Pete McKee, James Green, Jonathan Wilkinson and Lydia Monks – each of which has put their own creative mark on a 1.6m tall fibreglass elephant sculpture. They are all very difference, take a selfie with your favourite as they will be on display until the end of September.
International artist Mark Alexander, who is currently working with Rembrandt for an exhibition in Berlin, flew to Sheffield especially to paint his elephant and international players from the World Snooker Championship signed SnookHerd, an elephant celebrating the heritage of snooker in Sheffield.
The Arctic Monkeys, famous for their love of their home city, added their signatures to their own personalised sculpture which pays homage to the striking sound wave cover of the band’s 2013 album “AM”.
By supporting the Herd of Sheffield you are investing in the future of Sheffield Children’s Hospital. Every penny raised will go towards our Artfelt programme, which transforms the hospital’s walls and spaces with bright art, helping children recover in an environment tailored to them. The programme also puts on workshops for youngsters to provide distraction during anxious moments – such as before an operation, and to breakup long stays on the wards.
This exciting Wild in Art event brought to you by The Children’s Hospital Charity will:
Unite our city – bringing businesses, communities, artists, individuals and schools together to create a FREE sculpture trail which is accessible to all.
Attract more visitors – both nationally and regionally as well as encouraging thousands of people to become a tourist in their own city.
Invest in the future – with a city wide education programme that can be used for years to come and by funding a life-saving piece of medical equipment at Sheffield Children’s Hospital from the Herd auction at the end of the trail.
Showcase our city – celebrating Sheffield’s heritage and cementing our status as a vibrant and culturally exciting city through this world-class initiative.
The Herd of Sheffield Farewell Weekend was held on 14-16 October and was your chance to say a last goodbye to all 58 large elephant sculptures as they gather in one place for a final send-off at Meadowhall.
This special event gave visitors a chance to see the entire herd in all its glory – from the signed Arctic Monkeys’ ‘AM’ elephant, right through to ‘SnookHerd’, autographed by a host of international snooker players including current world champion Mark Selby.
Please note that the Little Herd elephants will not be on display as they will be returned to their school for pupils to enjoy.
Meadowhall, along with its joint owners, British Land are very proud to be supporting The Children’s Hospital Charity as host sponsors for the Herd of Sheffield Farewell Weekend.
Auction: Hundreds of elephant enthusiasts gathered at the Crucible on 20 October for the Herd of Sheffield Auction, which raised a total of £410,600 for The Children’s Hospital Charity.
I stood on the same spot waiting for the colors I was sure would come. The clouds were right and the sun set beautifully, but the thin layer of subtle red and gold on the horizon was all the evening could deliver. Without the strong colors the composition had to make up for it so an interesting breakup of ice in the foreground sufficed.
But hold your breathe
Because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you
Over again
Don't make me change my mind
Or I wont live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you is impossible to find
You're impossible to find

Songs and Calls
Song is a series of rich caroling notes, rising and falling in pitch: cheer-up, cheerily, cheer-up, cheerily.
Conservation statusAbundant and widespread. Because it is so familiar and occurs around places where humans live, it sometimes serves as an early warning of environmental problems, such as overuse of pesticides.
FamilyThrushes
HabitatCities, towns, lawns, farmland, forests; in winter, berry-bearing trees. Over most of continent, summers wherever there are trees for nest sites and mud for nest material. In arid southwest, summers mainly in coniferous forest in mountains, rarely in well-watered lowland suburbs. In winter, flocks gather in wooded areas where trees or shrubs have good crops of berries.
A very familiar bird over most of North America, running and hopping on lawns with upright stance, often nesting on porches and windowsills. The Robin's rich caroling is among the earliest bird songs heard at dawn in spring and summer, often beginning just before first light. In fall and winter, robins may gather by the hundreds in roaming flocks, concentrating at sources of food.

Feeding Behavior
Does much foraging on the ground, running and pausing on open lawns; apparently locates earthworms by sight (not, as had been suggested, by hearing them move underground). When not nesting, usually forages in flocks.
Eggs
Usually 4, sometimes 3-7. Pale blue or "robin's-egg blue." Incubation by female, 12-14 days. Young: Both parents feed young, though female does more. Parents very aggressive in defense of nest. Young leave the nest about 14-16 days after hatching. Male may tend the fledged young while female begins second nesting attempt. 2 broods per season, sometimes 3.
Young
Both parents feed young, though female does more. Parents very aggressive in defense of nest. Young leave the nest about 14-16 days after hatching. Male may tend the fledged young while female begins second nesting attempt. 2 broods per season, sometimes 3.
Diet
Mostly insects, berries, earthworms. In early summer, insects make up majority of diet; also feeds on many earthworms, snails, spiders, other invertebrates. Feeds heavily on fruit, especially in winter (fruit accounts for perhaps 60% of diet year-round); mainly wild berries, also some cultivated fruits. Young are fed mostly on insects and earthworms.
Nesting
Males arrive before females on nesting grounds and defend territories by singing, sometimes by fighting. In early stages of courtship, female may be actively pursued by one or several males. Nest: Female does most of nest building with some help from male. Site on horizontal branch of tree or shrub, usually 5-25' above ground, rarely on ground or up to 70' high; also nests on ledges of houses, barns, bridges. Nest is a cup of grasses, twigs, debris, worked into solid foundation of mud, lined with fine grasses and plant fibers.
Migration
Migrates in flocks, often by day. Although some robins winter as far north as Canada, they are in localized concentrations then. With the breakup of flocks prior to the nesting season, when northerners see their "first robin of spring," it may be a bird that has wintered only a few miles away, not one that has just arrived from southern climates. To the south, winter range is highly variable from year to year, depending on local food supplies.
This is a long exposure of the ice breakup on lake Huron in Ontario. The lake ice had piled up at the shoreline, looking more like hills of dirt than ice. Looking out to the edge of the hills, it becomes pretty clear that you're looking at ice slowly break up and float down the shoreline.
You could forgive a Yorkshire newcomer for getting in a muddle when it comes to all the local dialects and terminology that gets thrown around the Steel City. Where else in the country could you be accused of being ‘nesh’ or be asked to ‘have a gander’ at some ‘reet good scran’? If you need to brush up on your local slang then seek out Geo Law’s Lingo the elephant which is a technicolour celebration of the weird and wonderful way language is used in the city.

Breakup
The Breakup
Strobist/mindset: I wanted to create a scene of a after-breakup desperate watching romantic movies
I've started with Profoto PRO81 head with 4foot octa filtered with blue gel to fill the room as an after-dusk ambient, to give me some exposure range to work in.
Keylight for the desperate lady was another PRO41 head with a gridded beauty dish, non-filtered, i wanted to create sort of a TV/display/projector light, but not to blue to completely destroy the skin tones.
Outside were two blue-filtered Vivitar 285 speedlites.
The rim light for the couch was PRO41 head with a gridded zoom reflector, filtered blue as well, motivated by the two speedlites outside, for me it's sort of stitching the whole scene together lighting-wise.
Shot on Fuji X100.
The lovely girl on the photo is my girlfriend and immediately after releasing the picture I got a call from my mom "what the heck happened?" And it was just my bad sense of humor.
