Fading, disintegrating, and letting nature take over, a long abandoned house sits alone in an open field, as an old oak tree leans towards the road, while 214 races north in the distance.
Walls speak to us - a flickr group I enjoy so much: here I use it to describe what I see in a fading and crumbling mural on the side of an old building in Superior, Arizona. This mining town was developed around 1900 but the mines had been operating for years. The Spanish had mines in the area and Superstition Mountains nearby in the 1500's.
This mural dated 1980 is going to disappear soon in sharing enough detail to make documentary sense as as a historical mural. When I see these miners I think of the amazing, difficult work they did under dangerous conditions. There are two online resources I found to recommend for an understanding of mining and the lives of people in Superior: the Resolution Copper living history articles (in PDF) and the account of the family history of Jon Garrido and his photos of Superior, here. Much of this mural is seen in Desert Bug's image here.

Yesterday, I said to myself enough with the housework - time for a photo-stroll!! :-)
It is camellia blossom time here in Central Florida, so I decided to revisit Leu Gardens in Orlando. Even tho we have had a few chilly nites, most of the blooms are intact and as lush and lovely as can be. While the perfect flowers are heavenly, I find a special beauty in the fading stages of their lives. This one had fallen onto a bed of pine needles and I was especially intrigued by the little bits of green still remaining. Such delicate colors and textures...
Happy Thursday all, y'all!!
Honfleur - Normandie - France
A cold spring day, a moving bridge over the sea, a red boat's coming into the sea port... The time was frozen for this picture, for Leo. And the colors were frozen too, will fade out in his memories, again and again, without, maybe, the red one...
On the AD255. They were getting a wee bit sticky. Now, seamless and fine. Can't wait to mix again with 'em.
An expert gardener lives near me! Her yard is ablaze of color both spring and fall! Dahlia is fading, like the US elections!
Still working the same routes after about 20 years service, First Bristol 34538 NTC138Y was looking a bit tired with its barbie fades. The film dates this as 2005, and the location is Cherry Gardens.
Gradient Fade 2015, by Adham Faramaway. Tower Hamlets Cemetery Park.
Looks like a regular bench to me. If a local lad had done this instead of a so called artist he would have been had for vandalism instead of getting a fat wedge.
This is the south-facing remnant of the old sign for the San Antonio Hotel. The sign is visible from Interstate 65 in downtown Louisville, Kentucky.
This was taken from Jokulsarlon in mid February 2012 while the aurora was continuing to fade from the western horizon.
II did not return to the guesthouse after taking many northern light shots during 4-6 am, I had to wait for the first light of the day at the beach. So I spent the next few hours in a cold and windy night out of my car to capture beautiful scenery around me at near dawn before leaving this wonderful place back to Vik.

Feel the rain like an English summer
Hear the notes from a distant song
Stepping out from a backdrop poster
Wishing life wouldn't be so long
Devenir gris
We fade to grey (fade to grey)
We fade to grey (fade to grey)
We fade to grey (fade to grey)

we had date day . as always it is our chance to let go and love ....
we had so much fun ... we kissed a lot all over the place
i have never loved anyone so much i think ...
There is a place where i end and you begin
where dreams start and life wins
where touch and breath are one
this is the place i fade into you .... Written by Nino Salazar
i do not deserve this i know it ... i met with some of my service buddies
to discuss my stalkers but our talk took an interesting turn
i was told that i was the best of them .. that i was incorruptible that i had more compassion
then the rest of them .. that i maintained my honor ...it was always meant for me to be happy that is why they fought so hard for me and with me ... and will always stand by me
i am humbled
I am flawed really flawed my lack of forgiveness with a few people is not good
i will not be disrespected ... nor will i fold ... i asked for mercy and it was not given
those who set out to hurt me feel i am taking it to hard .. what they have done is nothing
well to them it was nothing ... but to me it was my life they disregarded .. they spit on me
i am learning day by day to let go ... there are days i do not even waste my time
i am not perfect i will lash out if you hurt me ......... anyone would
i was told i should fade away or die ... this from a former love ... and i am the cold one
i want them to live long enough to see that you can't use people .. there is punishment for lies
and setting out to hurt people ... this is the real world
except when i am with Heather ... the world turns red and pink and love abounds in us
i am unyielding in two things love and lack of forgiveness hut you knew this
happy Sunday .......... Bridge is BACK and life is good ........
i did rush this i wanted to post .... she had this fantastic dress on i mean wow i am vain i covered up the bald spot ,,, grrr and may have tanned her more then i wanted to ... but its Sunday we are off to church so this will have to do ...
if you need more my blog is there to see looks like that is the new way of hurting me sharing my blog ..... i make no excuses i do not hide my pain ...
On Thursday it snowed and three of us from the swim team (Cheyne, Eli and myself) went out and made snow angels in our speedos right outside the pool. Yeah- it was COLD!
An owl housed at Rocky Gap State Park's Aviary. Located in Cumberland/Flintstone, Allegany County, Maryland, United States.
More Information About Rocky Gap:
Rocky Gap State Park encompasses over 3,000 acres of public land for guests to enjoy. Rugged mountains surround the park which features 243-acre Lake Habeeb. The lake is fed by Rocky Gap Run which winds its way through an impressive mile long gorge displaying sheer cliffs, overlooks and a hemlock forest dense with rhododendron. Overlooking the lake is Evitts Mountain, named for one of the first European settlers in Allegany County.
Information about the Aviary:
Scales and Tales is an educational program using injured, non-releasable birds of prey and reptiles native to Maryland. Featured at the aviary are many birds that have been injured and cannot be released or have been raised in captivity and could not survive in the wild.
This one-of-a-kind program allows visitors the opportunity to view wildlife up close and hear the tales of how the animals became part of the program.
Our "Critter Encounter" program will bring our birds directly to your campsite. If you are looking for something unique at your next gathering, a Scales and Tales program can be scheduled as part of your special event. To check for program availability, scheduling or to receive information on program costs, please contact the park office at 301-722-1487 or email Ranger Milbourne.
To learn more about the Scales and Tales programs offered at Rock Gap, please read the Scales and Tales Program Guide.

This monument was erected to remember Dutch soldiers who were killed in action at fort Westervoort during the German invasion (May 1940).
The monument urgently needed a clean up, which has been done (in 2016) after the publication of this picture on local platforms.

the end of 2011 & start of 2012 hasn't been exactly great, so much things had happened. Life is so fragile, wish for the best of health for all my loved ones. And to all my fam who had a bad start to the year/ end of last year, stay strong! I believe things like this will make us stronger & 2012 is going to be a big year for all of us.
inspired by Corrcreation, to try smoke photography & boy was it fun, totally got me hooked, there's something special about it. My table's a mess at the end of shoot & room smelled of joss sticks, gotta try something better smelling next time.
Fade into me, fade into you,
Two of us melting together until we become something new.
I've been wanting to do a photo to this song for a long time, and it turned out much different than I had hoped... but it's growing on me. Perhaps in the future I can take another that's more like the one I had envisioned. For now, this'll work. :) And it does look much better in Lightbox... so feel free to press L!
