Aesthetics of Failure

Andie, Adianna, Pengu, Kaleb, Ketlin and I decided to head to the waterpark for a day...
Little did we know to secure our items.. We definitely did not impress the crowd...
Andie lost her bottom, I lost my flipflops, Pengu lost his trunks, Adi lost her weave and Ketlin lost her top. Unscathed was Kaleb, who sort of gracefully landed well.

The Brumadinho dam disaster occurred on 25 January 2019 when Dam I, a tailings dam at the Córrego do Feijão iron ore mine, 9 kilometres (5.6 mi) east of Brumadinho, Minas Gerais, Brazil, suffered a catastrophic failure. The dam is owned by Vale, the same company that was involved in the 2015 Mariana dam disaster. The dam released a mudflow that advanced through the mine's offices, including a cafeteria during lunchtime, along with houses, farms, inns, and roads downstream. 270 people died as a result of the collapse, of whom 259 were officially confirmed dead, in January 2019, and 11 others reported as missing, whose bodies had not been found.

Iron Ore is in 3rd Position in the Ranking of the most exported products by Brazil in 2019. The product is a reference for our country's economy and closed the year with a 9.9% share in Brazil's Total Exports. Among the Basic Products, Iron Ore also occupies the 3rd position.

My previous attempts at photographing dragonflies have been embarrassing failures, however, I was very pleased with this one. The plain background helped immensely
Life will come our way,
It has only just begun.
The world will die alone
The frail will fall below.
Time will take our place.
We return it back to one
The calm before the cold,
The long and lonely road.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Drive the cloud away,
We will fall from last to none.
The dark before the dawn,
The world will carry on.
Look for the light that leads me home.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Failure.
Tired of feeling lost, tired of letting go.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
Tired of wasted breath, tired of nothing left.
Tear the whole world down, tear the whole world down.
We bury the sunlight (Failure), we bury the sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
We bury the sunlight (Failure), we bury the sunlight (Failure).
Failure! Failure.
Failure....

after another failure with the camera at a previous location and loosing interest AGAIN, this was took on the way home and im considering selling my gear i just can not be arsed anymore!
Went out this morning looking for wildlife… birds, rabbits, squirrels, anything. Struck out, so here’s a rose instead.

Today I noticed almost a mass emergence of Common Darters, I saw 15 or so Teneral Common Darters flying up from the waters edge of the Grantham Canal. I decided to see if any were emerging from the fountain this year. Sure enough I found many exuviae around the wall of the fountain and then I found this poor individual.
I found this one this afternoon, after watching for a while I soon realised that it was a failed emergence. For whatever reason this is as far as this one got, The head had just broken through and then I guess something went wrong. So anyway I took a 22 image focus stack using my 1000D, ISO 200, aperture F/6.3 and a 1/160 shutter speed. Thought it made an interesting image.
REALLY NEED TO VIEW LARGE OR ZOOOOOMMMM

The Dust Bowl was the result of a period of severe dust storms that greatly damaged the ecology and agriculture of the American and Canadian prairies during the 1930s. The phenomenon was caused by a combination of natural factors (severe drought) and man-made factors: a failure to apply dryland farming methods to prevent wind erosion, most notably the destruction of the natural topsoil by settlers in the region. The drought came in three waves: 1934, 1936, and 1939–1940, but some regions of the High Plains experienced drought conditions for as long as eight years.
The Dust Bowl has been the subject of many cultural works, including John Steinbeck's 1939 novel The Grapes of Wrath, the folk music of Woody Guthrie, and Dorothea Lange's photographs depicting the conditions of migrants, particularly Migrant Mother, taken in 1936.
So... don't be afraid of failure... it's just a 'detour' towards success...
Have a great Easter Long Weekend everyone!
This house was undermined by a flood a handful of years ago. Slowly the house collapsed with its belongings still inside. Located in rural Brown County, Ohio a few miles north of the Ohio River.
“In every man’s life, there are moments when there is a lifting of the veil at the horizon of the known, opening a sight of the eternal. We do not leave the shore of the known in search of adventure or suspense, or because of the failure of reason to answer our questions. We sail because our mind is like a fantastic seashell. And when applying our ear to its lips, we hear a perpetual murmur from the waves beyond the shore.”
- Abraham Joshua Heschel
Seems to be the curse of RV's. Even though I buy quality name brand tires, use the highest ply rating available, and run a tire pressure and temperature monitoring system, it still happens. This sounded like a gunshot when it blew out. Failures like this can cause a lot of damage to the RV. Fortunately not too bad in this case. Part of the problem may be that I travel a lot of dirt roads or make my own roads over rough conditions. I now travel with two spares, just in case!

On my way home yesterday I visited a house I had seen before with an old Sierra in the drive. The grass has grown up around the car quite a lot so I guess it hasn't been driven for a while! I decided to desaturate the image quite a bit but not go for the whole black and white thing.

CP 143 is stopped in Dorval due to issues with the leader (Air Force unit CP 7023) as crewmembers and shop forces look on. After further delay caused by having to set off a car, the train would continue to Smiths Falls where further problems with CP 7023 would cause it to be moved to trail position. At right are two stopped intermodal trains on the CN Montreal Sub (CN 108 & CN 186).
The annual WIldwood Classic Car Show was this past weekend.
I think there were more cars this year than ever before.
I only took a limited amount of pictures this year.
Many of the cars I'd seen before and have photographed many times....and in the end, what am I going to do with all these car pics?
But there were a few that caught my eye, like this 1958 Edsel Pacer Convertible.
Unfortunately for the Ford Motor Company, the public didn't seem too impressed. Folks thought they were over-priced and ugly.
Fords lost millions on the development, manufacturing and marketing of this car.
As for me, I like it! But then, I've always been one to root for the underdog!
It was only made for 3 years from 1958-1960.
