Yon stack of interlocking concrete blocks is picturesquely situated on a "lakeshore."

I would not want to be down there in it, but I like to look at it from up here.

It seems like everytime I handle scrap metal I get cut up real real bad.

"I'm about to plunge into the mud puddle."

Found some old negatives and scanned them.

Apartment buildings and trees reflected in muddy water standing in a parking lot off Albany Street. Cambridgeport neighborhood of Cambridge, Massachusetts. March 26, 2009.

This shot was taken shortly after a passing vehicle left the frame, having disrupted the waters and left fresh tread marks.

Soil not protected by ground-cover or anchored by roots is much more susceptible to erosion. It may be liberated and transported by rainfall, snow-melt, and increased with human interaction. In this shot an over-saturated ground bleeds ocher with silt and clay-carrying water.

After it rained like crazy here today, Blue went to check out some mud puddles.

As these little bivalved crustaceans swim through a mudpuddle, they leave little trails behind them like jet planes...

Found some old negatives and scanned them. Our driveway was really long.

I miss living here. That big house across the street was the only one in view, it and the one we lived in were surrounded by farm land. The street they're running towards has a speed limit of 50mph.

This one got washed off in a mudpuddle for a better look.

There was about an inch of rain overnight, and they were climbing out an hour after sunrise.

Funny how mud puddles can look magical in pictures.

From another photo walk with Orbitgal today. This was at an abandoned store we stopped at.

This is Jill. She is over 30 years old. No joke!

Sometimes I feel like telling those birds, I don't think you should drink from there! But

what can you do??lol

Because looking is part of the fun.

June 1, 2018 - We took a drive through "Native Iceland" which was a stand of birch trees. Here you can see Gudrun opening the gate so our bus can continue on our journey to "black castles" lava formations at Dimmuborgir.
