We made a trip to the mall this afternoon and I noticed that all the parking lot lights were on. I thought this was strange but then I noticed that a work crew using a cherry picker was in the lot fixing lights that were burned out. The bright lights stood out against the empty blue sky. Taken with a Canon A1000IS. Type L for a better view.

On 21 July 2010 this Super Puma helicopter taxied into a lightpole at Wadeye airport while under charter to ENI Australia . The helicopter ended up on its side with total damage to the rotors. Luckily there were no serious injuries to the crew or passengers on board and the same held for two Metroliners which were boarding nearby. In August 2011 the Super Puma was stored in a Winnellie storage shed while awaiting a decision on its future.

I had some to kill while waiting in front of the Gene Siskel Theater. My bag was full of a dozen bouncy balls, I scouted the area for places to hold the balls. Lo and behold, this street lamp was perfect. It's eye level, the balls fit nicely around the lamp. It also holds a sign well.
The sign in this video says "have some fun today." and then I realized that maybe people don't know that I'm welcoming anyone to take the ball for their own. People could just go up to the sign and think I was decorating the pole. But I really want people to take a bouncy ball and have some fun. I changed the sign to read "have a ball"
90 minutes after placing the balls, a couple were taken.
10/26/10 - Day 312
Right before leaving my San Francisco office, I saw the Daily Shoot assignment #345: "Make a photograph today where vertical elements or lines dominate the scene." After a site visit in Hayward, I realized the vertical expression of the San Mateo Bridge light poles was as good as it was going to get today. Shot using FxCamera on my Android phone.
Old light pole along the rear entrance driveway from Clarinda Road to the Hoyts Skyline Oakleigh Drive-in which opened in 1955 and closed in 1990. In later years the site was rebuilt as a twein and a new rear entrance faced Bourke Road which did not exist at the time of opening. The drive in site is now a retirement village and housing estate. Other remains of the drive in include cypress trees around the site and a section of high barbed-wire topped Colorbond fence along Bourke Road
More on the Oakleigh Skyline Drive-In can be found here, including the light poles in their original condition which ran along the site.

It turns out these are the "worn out" shoes of the handball players using the nearby handball courts. Apparently they go through shoes pretty quickly. Probably not that big of a deal seeing as the sport requires very little equipment otherwise.
Was getting into my car on a warm, beautiful, golden morning and there was this Mockingbird right there in front of my car on a light post, singing to the world. :)
"The light which puts out our eyes is darkness to us. Only that day dawns to which we are awake.
There is more day to dawn. The sun is but a morning star."
