Fishermen dropped their lobster traps into the ocean before dawn this morning as the winter lobster season started here.
Various giant truck tires stacked on one another in a dump of sorts near the strip. The shadow is from a bridge overheard.
The plot had not been grown on for about 20 years - it had been allocated to allotment seekers a number of times but none had been able to make a go of it and it had become a dumping ground.
These trucks and equipment were on display at the Lafarge quarry, for the Boulder Dash 5k. I had to get this angle by standing on the other dump truck, which, right after getting my shots, I was told I wasn't supposed to be up there... XD
Souvenir dump truck sold in Bisbee in the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. It has malachite from the Holbrook extension of the Lavender pit glued in the bed . The toy is of of a Mack truck, the kind they used inside the Pit. It is also the correct bright orange color that was also used.

The red bordered area shows the extent of the dumping ground for the material being removed from the track bed.
A previously abandoned section of the Leighton Buzzard Narrow Gauge Railway, between Stonehenge Works and Mundays Hill is being reinstated. The old track was lifted in 2018 and on 30th July 2019 the earth moving contractors commenced work the clear tons of spilt sand and to regrade the track bed.

Between 1970 and 1990, radioactive waste from various site
operations was deposited into the silo through ports in the
roof on more than 16,000 occasions.
I got an email on Wednesday from an editor for a local paper. She said they were working on a "big story" and needed some photos to go with it.
The details were vague and I wasn't really sure what I was supposed to shoot until I showed up, but apparently there is a construction company that is dumping some sort of material in Jamaica Plain. She told me that the owners are grumpy so I should stay on public property, but I should also get a shot to contextualize the dumping, showing how it was affecting local homes and businesses.
I stopped by before work, around 7:30 in the morning prepared to be chased away by some Italian-American brute in a hardhat. Fortunately there was nobody there, and it was impossible to get any worthwhile shots from outside so I entered the dump where a section of the corrugated metal wall had fallen over. It was apparent that this company is dumping the debris from ripped up streets and sidewalks here. It was mostly dirt, asphalt, bricks, pavement and the odd street light pole.
This was the first shot I took, which I like more than the others - the mountain of debris gloriously bathed in the morning sunlight. I did however try to get some other buildings in the same frame as the debris as instructed. In order to do so I climbed to the top of one of the mountains of debris and shot in the other direction. I got the ice cream factory (what is a place called where ice cream is made?) and the car wash.
Not sure what the big deal is here. Looked like a legitimate dump, and the area is kind of run down anyway. Not to mention the ice cream and car wash places had nice messes of their own.
Most of all, I enjoyed the ironic "Do Dumping" signage.
The bar is closed but it seems that the hotel is still in business. What kind of business I'm not sure. It's probably best not to know!
The overcast sky and fireworks smoke made this last dump and burn ever (for Riverfire) look like a glowing candle in the sky.
Do you reckon we'll see the F111's do a dump and burn at Indy? I reckon there might be a good chance.
Towards the end of Riverfire I was trying to take shots with people in the foreground with my wideangle, I thought it makes the photos more interesting, might try this next time there is fireworks on.
A massive 60 shot upload to keep you all occupied for the next week or so whilst I nip out and take a few more shots.
Please pace yourself, I don't want any complains of Repetative Shot Syndrome...
I'll be adding individual titles and details of what you are looking at (assuming you are bothering to look) as and when I get time. Although I'm not always sure what I'm looking at as, despite several visits to Skye over the years, this is the first time I've actually managed to see the view!
