I noticed this car in the bushes as I drove through the New Forest early this morning. Looks like quite a smash - I'm assuming it was nicked and joy riders bumped it all over the place.
The pic was at 1600ISO but I used the grain feature of LR3 beta to bring a more "newspaper" look to the image.

I found this as I was walking back to my car after a fizzled sunset along the Hudson River. Trying to balance myself on a few small slippery rocks in Converses is no easy task, but I managed to do it without going for a dip. I wish I could have dragged it to shore and gotten it out of the water, but the tide was going out and the water was freezing cold :-(

No dumping! Drains to waterways

Sorry to be extremely boring about rubbish dumped in Moorefield Road N17. There's nothing interesting or new about the photo I'm posting from 7.30 pm 9 February 2019.
So stunningly tedious is this quick snap that maybe I should pretend that rubbish I've reported dumped in this spot many dozens - hundreds? - of times over the past ten years is all fascinatingly different?
Maybe I can mention that some piles have been arranged super-neatly against the cream-coloured wall. Though other garbage is spread intriguingly around a nearby street sign.
There are day shots; and photos in rain; and in bright sunlight. Some - like this evening's offering in darkness - include an armchair. Quite often there's a mattress. Or two. Or three. Perhaps with a free duvet thrown-in. Once I asked a passer-by to stand near the waste pile. Pointing at the trash, as though it was mysteriously difficult to spot.
From time to time, I've been glad to send Haringey a report of a single black rubbish bag. Kidding myself that this was not a starter for ten. In an effort to be fair and balanced I've also taken photos in celebration when strolling along this and nearby roads and finding no rubbish at all.
But here's a strange thing. For years I've walked past this spot for different reasons. Perhaps on my way to Bruce Grove station; or the GPO Sorting Office. Or to Bruce Grove Primary School - where I was once a volunteer school governor. But never once do I remember getting a reply email telling me that Haringey Council had discovered who dumped stuff here.
Or perhaps discovered that some residents were leaving their rubbish because their landlords didn't provide waste storage space.
Although dumping - at least several times a week is my guess - was as predictable as leaves falling in Autumn.
What's needed before Haringey Council bosses - including the so-called cabinet - take this and other examples of the dumping epidemic with any apparent seriousness? Seriously enough to find extra cash for staff & other resources for enforcement? And possibly to seek external funding for university research?
Not by a selfish owner but by an organization which collects millions of $ annually to supposedly help animals. Not this one, however. Why? Because this cat tested positive for feline leukemia and this is why the ASPCA (yep) returned him to city pound.... you can imagine what his prospects are there.
Feline leukemia (FELV) is not a death sentence. It is contagious but ASPCA has the $$, facilities, vets and leverage to keep its promise to Benny, to fulfill its commitment. All small rescue organizations I know would never return a cat once it is out of the pound. Granted, the animals are tested and rescue often falls through due to the felv status, but once the cat is out of the shelter - it stays out of the shelter.
UPDATE - Benny was rescued by Empty Cages Collective.

At the dump in Yoro, Honduras. Every day, 80 tons of garbage are dumped and burned on this cliff side. About 40 people make a living by scrounging and selling junk. In five months, the dump will be closed off to them and they will have no immediate source of income.
As the shadows were rather long, I came across another no dumping storm sewer cover with more than a textual message.

These images were taken during the Bank Holiday weekend of August 2014.
As far back as October 2014, I'd previously crossed over the river to record in close-up detail what was happening on the ground in the whole Slang/Rehills section.
Now, with the main tranche of work here completed, I reckoned it time to pay another visit.
Wanted to record the area before they seeded it and the vegetation took over.
Although the entrance gate was locked for the weekend, the water levels were low enough to allow me to walk across at a particularly narrow section.
