At a time when many of our wonderful local newspapers are facing a disappearing market and are really struggling to survive, this image of the offices and print works of the Waterford News must feel prophetic? All of us Culchies will have a favourite local paper that was the source of information on what had happened, was happening, and will happen in the locality. Names like the Skibbereen Eagle, Connacht Tribune, Limerick Leader, Waterford News and Star were a means of keeping in touch, and would be very sadly missed should they go. What happened here, and why is the building in such a sad state?
+++ UPDATE +++
Forgive our ageing brains, but we Marys had forgotten that we visited the inside of these ruins 9 years ago. There’s a good Irish Times report you can read here. But this photo shows a great election poster, and you know how we love posters! We got the local results for the general election to the Fourth Dáil; we found out that an election-related riot caused this fire; and we found out that when the News building was rebuilt, the newspaper took over the post office at the left in this photo.
Thank you BeachcomberAustralia for this great snippet from an Australian newspaper:
In a street procession at Waterford, supporting Capt. Redmond (Independent), they came in conflict with a crowd attending a meeting where General Cosgrave was speaking. In the disorder that followed, the editorial office of the Republican newspaper was burnt to the ground. Finally, plain-clothes policemen fired a volley of blank cartridges, thus stampeding the crowds.

Finally nailed this after numerous aborted attempts. Right window, right orientation and right conditions. Externally hand lit then trailed and stacked with the very tiniest of a crop to balance the natural shadow border. Window shot with auto WB and then stars trailed with CWB. Was tempted to clean up the glass but glad I didn't.
Hit L and view on black to feel that draft.
Anyone recommend a good glazier ?

“We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." - FIGHT CLUB[1999]
I've been driving by this old abandoned house for years now and I always wanted to get inside for some pictures - the exterior looks so promising.

City of Richmond is going to have Steveston nominated as the World Heritage site.
Some people may see the Britannia Shipyard and Steveston Village as just a group of shabby old buildings and fishing port. Is it really qualified as World Heirtage site?
The question may be answered with the perspective and understanding of fishing history in Richmond and especially Steveston.
This is one of the shipyard buidlings in Britannia Shipyard at Steveston.
Have a great week to start my friends!
A federal judge has ruled that real estate developer Jerry Wolkoff must pay $6.7 million to 21 graffiti artists whose artwork, painted on the exterior of #5Pointz in Long Island City, Queens was whitewashed without notification in 2013. The judge wrote in an opinion that the owner acted willfully when he destroyed their art, thereby violating the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990 (VARA), which gives artists limited rights over paintings they no longer own. The final ruling set a huge precedent for the protection of graffiti art, as a visual art form of recognized stature.
We applaud this ruling as we have personally documented graffiti art in New York City since 1996 and discovered that the graffiti we were photographing disappeared quickly and was often painted over by rivals or "buffed' by the City. It was amazing to us that the artists would take the time and energy to create these works of art only to have them disappear days later. This was what prompted us to try and contact the artists themselves and find out the story behind their art. We completed and published our first book on the subject "Broken Windows: Graffiti NYC" in 2002. We have always hoped that our photographs and interviews with the artists will help preserve this vibrant artistic movement and bring awareness to the importance of creating art for art's sake.

Franklin County, Idaho.
This abandoned building used to house the offices of the Rabbit Foot Minstrels. A closeup of the historic marker and further information is available here.
The building, it seems, burned down a few years ago.

Nature wins again, as bit-by-bit it reclaims space taken up by this old truck. Shot in JPG mode, using the Acros film simulation.
Once I got over the excitement of finding Noyo Harbor, I started to zone in on the details. At first I was getting carried away shooting boats, buildings, and all the big stuff, when suddenly my focus shifted and I started noticing the many splendid sub-plots within the harbor. I had to grapple up a chain link fence to get this shot. Not the easiest of feats, for me anyway, but I rather liked the results. It's just too bad that I left a piece of my favorite shirt on the barb wire at the top of the fence. Give a little, take a little--that's photography for you.

This print was made using the classic cyanotype formula and printed on Canson XL Watercolor paper. A digital negative was made using a hand adjusted curve based on Peter Mrhrar and his free Easy Digital Negative (EDN) process. The digital negative was printed using a Canon Pixma Pro-100 printer and generic inkjet transparency medium. The print was exposed in a home made enclosure containing ten 15-watt UV tubes.
