The colour version of "the machine that ate the earth" at Ocean Reef Marina :-) The colour in the bright summer morning light were outstanding
Abstracted the forms some, this land soon being developed. Black rock referring to the black lava rock.
Over fertilized plants may be beautiful but are otherwise useless, like people whose energies are devoted so completely to their appearance that there is no other development.

Mural on a building side in downtown Des Moines, Iowa
"You can almost hear her gasp!
A blonde woman from a vintage comic strip looks in wide-eyed shock at the graffiti spreading across the wall of a building downtown. ....
Weber ....The artist is known for politically and socially charged artwork along the lines of the current exhibition he guest-curated at Moberg Gallery, which helped arrange the Workspace commission.
But the new mural’s message is more subtle, he said. The blonde woman represents “the overall American consumer” or a “more traditional” Des Moines citizen reacting to downtown’s rapid growth. Partially hidden among the graffiti tags are Dopey from Disney’s “Snow White” and a pair of Smurfs, whose woodland habitat is threatened by development.
“In any city in America, there are murals everywhere. In Oakland, you can’t go two blocks without seeing one,” Weber said, praising downtown Des Moines’ own murals by artists Chris Vance, Van Holmgren and others. “Hopefully, in another year or two, we’ll have twice as many.”
It's that time of the year again. Hiawatha #336 arrives Chicago behind the class Amtrak B32-8WH which is subbing for a Charger that shit out a few days prior. The searchlight installations at the east end of Morgan Street were installed in the early 1980s.
Real estate development has exploded in the West Loop over the past decade. The Fulton Labs on the right were completed last year, and 345 N. Morgan on the left was completed a few months ago (still under construction when this picture was taken). The latter was built by Sterling Bay which is also overseeing the redevelopment of the former ADM flour mill. What you see here is only a fraction of what's to come to the West Loop in the next few years.

...as in I'm pretty sure being upside down is good for their brain development. Don't quote me on that though. Unbelievably this is my fifth explore in 5 days!!!!!

[14:23]
TL: This is Delta Team, reporting in from Lower Sector B. We've located Harvey. Over.
C: Confirm, Delta Team. - You found him? - What's his status? - Over.
TL: Negative. Target is deceased. No immediate threats in the area. We are securing the perimeter. Over.
C: Copy that. - What's the condition? - Over.
TL: It's not good. He's in a janitor's closet, approximately five by five feet. The body’s been here for... a while. —Lines up with the three-week timeline since he went missing. Cause of death looks like blunt force trauma. Over.
C: Understood, Delta Team. - Anything else at the scene? - Over.
TL: Yeah… It's strange down here. The closet's filled with some sort of webbing, - like fine silk threads. - It's almost too dense to be natural. And there are these white moths everywhere. - Over.
Affirmative. - Based on what I’m seeing, this is ground zero for whatever's happening with the moths. They’re concentrated here, moving in and out of the webbing like it’s part of their habitat. It’s… unsettling. -Over.
C: Moths?? - We’ve had scattered reports of them in other parts of the building... Are you saying they're originating there? - Over.
TL: That’s a solid ‘maybe,’ Command. The air feels — how do I put this? — wrong. Like it’s heavier here. Lemegeton Team Beta thinks a psychic disturbance is tied to the murder. Whatever happened, it’s not natural. - Over.
C: Do you suspect any connection between the webbing, the moths, and Harvey’s death? - Over.
TL: Negative. - The moths aren’t aggressive, just... ominous. But I recommend a containment protocol. This isn’t something we want spreading. - Over.
C: Understood. - Any immediate threats in the area? - Over.
TL: Copy that, Command. - We’ll stand by. - Delta Team out.

Thanks everyone for the comments and faves, I am amazed at the response to this pic. This was taken near an HDB (Housing Development Board) flat in Singapore.
I really do not enjoy the process of taking sunset photos, having to be in the perfect place, at the perfect time is something I have difficulty with - and my lens being incompatible with (sensibly priced) filters doesn't exactly help either, but all in all despite the bitching, I'm pretty happy with how this one came out.

Tucked into the mountains of Iwate Prefecture near the under visited, stunning Sanriku Coast in eastern Japan is the Iwate Development Railway.
Established in 1939, the railway operated passenger and limestone transport from its mine in Iwate Ishibashi, to the cement plant at the port city of Ofunato for a total of 11km in length. The line suffered severe damage during the March 11, 2011 earthquake and tsunami. In fact, photos of debris covering the top of this bridge can be found online. The railway was brought back just 8 months after the quake and has been going strong since.
Two trains, pulled by DD56 Centercabs, shuttle 18 car limestone trains back and forth from the mine to the cement plant around 12-18 times a day. Here a midday empty train crosses over the Sakari River bridge bound for the mine for another load of rocks.
