Flickr Friday theme: Iron. There were tons of shots of rusted metal and actual “irons" used to remove wrinkles from clothing, so I decided to try something different, and substituted a turn of phrase for the actual element. This was photographed using a single off camera flash, firing through a 28" octabox. The light was positioned slightly in front and above the subject (me). It would have been nice to have some fill, but considering I was the model and the photographer and was working in my garage in 95F heat, there were limits... This shot was conceived to be moody and was always to be bw, and the emphasis was on the dumbbell for the theme after all.
For your visual enjoyment, I bring you the Cincinnati Water Works old Ohio river pumping station magically mirrored on itself.
A foot pump that probably belongs to one of the kite surfers that frequents the beach was claimed by the incoming tide they were surfing yesterday. (I picked up and brought it off the beach).
This pump is laying in the yard that used to be my Great Grandpas house The only unbroken glass is the one laying against the ground.
The orphans at Luchenza Orphanage learn to use the water pump at an early age. Clean water is vital for health. Thanks to donations from the UK the Orphanage has a clean mains water supply to drink.
Friendship, NY
This building was built specifically to house a new Steam Pumper for the town's Fire Dept. during the oil boom days.
The building has been modified to accommodate an ambulance, so the original arched door that matched the windows was replaced with this nasty modern square thing. The building is still wonderful though.
The town stills owns the original pumper, which still works and is hauled out once a year to spray water into the air. The pumper is also still registered as operational fire fighting apparatus.
P.S. In Charleston, there are still many pumper stalls, complete with grooved thresholds to give the horses traction as they hurried out of the building with such a load. Several of these buildings are haunted. It's true, though I'm not sure if by horses or people. This is a growing problem, as the U.S. population migrates southward, so do the ghosts from the upper mid-west and the northeast. Charleston is experiencing a mixture of nocturnal paranormal accents as yankee poltergeists mingle with their southern counterparts.
It is said that the ghost that once haunted this Friendship, NY building is now wreaking havoc with weary firemen in Charleston, but that has not been confirmed.
Taken while on a walk around Siuthwold harbour in Suffolk. If you walk away from the coast following the river Blyth you eventually come to a walkway bridge and just a bit further on is this structure. Don't really know its history but it appears to be an old drainage pump. Not the prettiest focal point for a comp but I think it works overall.

Minneapolis water works pump station #4 on the Mississippi River, over 100 years old and still in operation.
Well not quite... Under the pier that supports the pipes (top right) carrying sand and seawater that is pumped from the south side of the Tweed River (here) up to the north or Gold Coast side. The purpose is to replenish the northern drift of sand impeded by the rock walls (groynes) which keep the Tweed River mouth navigable. The supply of sand is vital to the maintenance of the Gold Coast surf beaches.
The pipe on the left is disused. But what a superb afternoon it was!

One sees many of these wind pumps in the Overberg region, between Robertson and Stanford, in the Western Cape. Finding three of them together was a bonus…
Have a great weekend, everyone. 😊
HFF!
Water is a critical resource and has been for the life of our planet. These two outlets, running to capacity, are moving water from a weir to an aquaduct which flows to the local reservoir providing drinking water to the community.
