Tucson, AZ; a lousy video since there's a lightpole now right next to the sign that seems to confuse my camera -- but hopefully it'll give you a sense of how the animation works on this thing. I think there are five sequences -- and then a split-second, blinding white pop of light from the thingie at the center before the whole sign goes dark and starts over. The white "pop" wasn't working on this side of the sign -- but the street lamp was less intense;

So I first noticed this tree(s) in rainbow beach park about 4 years ago and it was literally covered in old tennis shoes. Then about a year later they were mysteriously gone. But now they're back!
I don't know what it is about the contrast between the cool silver of the numbers and the rough tawny wood, but I love the contrast. Maybe it's got something to do with the fact that it's in my new front yard :)
I hope the fact that this sign was half torn off indicates that party dog got home safe.
Went out to take some pictures after work today. It was FAR too cold.

During my last business trip to Friedrichshafen, my nightly plan was to always take a long walk and usually past midnight. I swear after 9pm Friedrichshafen turns into a ghost town, like some unknown entity swept up all people in an instant. Luckily, this time I brought my camera and forced myself to roam around even though I had to get up at 6am everyday. This pair of bikes was left near this lightpole around the Graf Zeppelinhaus and the light during the night was simply fantastic in my eyes. Every night as I walked down to the Bondensee they were left there. Strange.

Decided to shoot with my stereoscopic lens today. I'm so sick of the ~2mi radius around my house that I've started using weirder and weirder camera gear to try to spice things up.
I wrote an EXTREMELY nerdy song today. In D&D yesterday, I rolled a 20 on a history check about how one would fix people petrified by a Basilisk, and so the in-game explanation was that my bard knew about it because there was a very popular song about basilisks. I decided to write the song in real life. This might be the nerdiest thing I've ever done.
The car place actually has the money to do my repairs now, but they can't start them today because they don't have all of the parts in and they're closed on the weekend, so stilllll no car.

OK, I'll admit, I have no idea why someone would go through the trouble of cutting a coffee cup in half and then attaching it to a light pole sideways, along with a band-aid.
The two light posts caught my eye today. The bridge leads to a forest/wooded area. Strange to have lights on a bridge like this.
Near Sylva, North Carolina

"To go through a wormhole and literally be at another point in time is extremely difficult for me to grasp", said the curious human. "Hmm...its not that difficult.." , said the worm as he slithered down a hole. - Kevin's Brain, circa 2015.
Got down to Foam way early for the open mic on Wednesday, so I just spend some time wandering around taking pictures. Came across this note pasted to a traffic light pole:
Hey buddy chip up! Don't worry about losing your house and having no money or a job. Soon the Jews will have rid the Palestinians out of their Holy Land and then Jesus will come back and we will all get to live in Paradise. Don't worry about your life at all, that's just silly. We all just need to stop being so selfish, shake off the laziness, and work even harder. ISRAEL NEEDS YOU!!!
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.
The local people mock this streetlight for preciously needing its own separate pole, instead of just being an attachment onto the utility pole conveniently located a few feet away: "Why?, haha jeez," etc.
