The sea it swells like a sore head and the night it is aching.
Two lovers lie with no sheets on their bed and the day it is breaking.

About:
The storm was moving in and U2 was pounding in my ears. But just for a short time, to experience the silence before the storm is just wonderful :))

Vintage electrical outlet in the building where a vault held the super secret Norden Bombsight during WWII.
I first visited this old Army Air Corps base in Wendover, Utah back in June of 2007 and recently returned for more exploration. In the years between visits much has happened by way of preserving and even restoring this fascinating piece of history. To see images from both this visit and the 2007 visit check out the album here: www.flickr.com/photos/19779889@N00/albums/72157601973705978
Part of Bristol Light Festival 2026
The Electrical Age is a large-scale projection and sound artwork celebrating Bristol’s pioneering electrical heritage. Projected onto the historic Clockwise Generator Building, the work traces 150 years of innovation — from early public illuminations and tramway power to today’s renewable energy future. Light and sound animate the building’s façade, connecting Bristol’s industrial past with its ongoing commitment to sustainability and innovation.
Artist: Illuminos

So back in '93-'94 Raevyn TWS and I used to meet pretty regularly and spend a few hours sketching new ideas. Well, trying to come up with new ideas. We were constantly looking at outside sources for inspiration and the more obscure seemed to deliver better results. This is a good example of one of those inspirations...
Raevyn showed up with a bunch of vintage electrical engineering books that had a ton of electrical maps, outlining how to lay out wires, connections, switches... all that. Raevyn saw letters in these maps. I saw a bunch of lines and switches but I respected his thought process so I gave it a shot. I actually gave it a lot of shots but this is the only drawing I have that shows the process.
The piece was going to say SIEU but I never made it to the U. So in this image it just says SIE. The bolder lines make up the shape of the letters and the rest of the lines are the "fill-in". Completely abstract, in the idea, but it did inspire me to use some of what we working with in a few paintings. For example : farm4.static.flickr.com/3174/2611847499_f3dbc4af4b_o.jpg
There's very little visible inspiration from these electrical exercises but in truth, most of that IHU piece was inspired by them.
I miss those days of sitting around and trying to come up with something new, original and provoking. It could very well be the whole reason that lead me on the path I'm currently on...
Small electrical repair shop that an enterprising electrician has opened at his home. Bacolod City, Philippines.
I'm still on my art filter kick, but with a difference this time around as I decided it was time to take my 35-year-old SMC Pentax 55mm f/1.8 out for a quick spin adapted to the E-M5. In an alley way off of Howe Street, downtown Vancouver. October 11, 2012.

A few weeks ago, I saw an amazing photo of lightning from Mike Jones and so when a storm rolled in tonight, I was inspired to give it a try and see if I could get anything worth posting.
Please, check out Mike's stream for some incredible photography.
Have a great weekend. :-)

"After Hour Deposits, Electrically Protected, O.B. McClintock Manufacturers, Minneapolis." Found on the side of a building that has been converted into apartments, plus a Walgreens, on the corner of Belmont & Sheffield, in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, Illinois, United States. O.B. McClintock Co. operated from 1917 - 1947, when it was acquired by Diebold.
Whats with the had? The beauty of documenting life in the street! Actually I was focused on the brightly painted electrical box or utility in down town Los Angeles. This was the second box I had seen this day with the LAPD Helicopter shining its light on the city. This piece done by "Superunleadedgasoline"!

I was taking the dog for a walk in Baelen when I passed by this electrical tower. Fortunately, I had my camera in my bag.
