Last evening the fire department had a controlled burn/training for new cadets. 19* out and Dave was gone for a good seven hours. I rode out for a few hours. One has to salute these men and women for their dedication.

reminds me of David Bowie, Space oddity, 1969:
"Ground Control to Major Tom
...
Take your protein pills and put your helmet on
...
Commencing countdown, engines on..." Bowie, cit. songtexte.com
Part of the old salt evaporation facility at Newark, California. Controlling water flow from one pond to another.
Now, a part of the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge, and being restored to wetlands.
And all the kids cried out, "Please stop, you're scaring me"
I can't help this awful energy
God damn right, you should be scared of me
Who is in control?
I'm well acquainted with villains that live in my head
They beg me to write them so they'll never die when I'm dead
And I've grown familiar with villains that live in my head
They beg me to write them so I'll never die when I'm dead
I'm bigger than my body
I'm colder than this home
I'm meaner than my demons
I'm bigger than these bones

Quite possibly not technically spirals - but they might be!
Cars positioned and anchored in place around a curve in the river to help prevent erosion. The river was dry the day I shot this, but it can get pretty big when it rains. Lonoak, California.
Hmmm, I wonder what's trending on Twitter...

Of course we can’t control the Fall, Autumn but the title is a pun on the balloonists who were actually controlling their fall into a space among the trees which are now full of brilliant Autumn (Fall) colours.
I cut off his feet and one wingtip, but I'm fascinated by all the little control surfaces that these egrets have to work with. Check out those leading edge feathers helping to slow his descent

Unless we step into the uncharted territory of the gender revolution, we know exactly where we will be regressing. An all-powerful State that infantilises us, interferes in all our decisions for our own good and—under the pretext of protecting us—keeps us in a childish state of ignorance, fear of punishment and exclusion. The special treatment until now reserved for women, with shame as the primary tool for ensuring their isolation, passivity and lack of protest, could now be extended to all. To understand the mechanics of how women have been made to feel inferior, and induced to willingly maintain themselves in this state, is to understand how the entire population is kept under control. Capitalism is an egalitarian religion, in the sense that it demands general submission, making everyone feel trapped—as all women are.
Virginie Despentes, King Kong Theory
You have to ask the sparrow first, if you want any water from the tap. The sparrow, is in total control.
