Question of the day: Why does an accumulation of trash and discarded building materials look almost majestic when held below the surface of stagnant water, with a developing skim layer of ice?
Statement of the day: I believe information provided via Flickr is *not* admissible in court. So, with that feeling of indemnity, I hereby acknowledge my intention on becoming a full-fledged stalker of Neko Case. I am beyond smitten:

This is a 3 shot HDR taken during our stay at the Haven holiday park in Cornwall. I was on my way to the beach to capture some sunset shots and came upon this row of static caravans. They looked very photogenic so shot a series of bracketed shots.
The HDR was processed using SNS HDR.

I have no idea why and how I had taken this shot, taken last year during my visit in Cebu. I was digging my archive and spot this, a single exposure and taken hand held I think. I just want to practice my processing if it works on high ISO on a single exposure, but I think it is ISO 200 on my D60 normally most of my shots is set to ISO 100.
I will try to go out tomorrow to take new shots if I could have time.
Hope you all have a happy and cheerful day always!
Time of exposure: 39 seconds.
Quite a bit oversharpening here by Flickr, so please click here to view this large and on black without oversharpening.

Static is feeling very Patriotic and decided to dress up for the occasion, she wears her Red, Whites and Blues proudly.

As a child in the 1960s these, and similar, fading signs were still relatively commonplace but now, over 80 years after they were painted on walls and buildings across the country they're relatively rare. "Static Water", and with an arrow pointing right, was a direction for a fire fighting water source during the Second World War. Static tanks, marked "EWS" for Emergency Water Supplies, were constructed but often other water features such as, here in Lancashire, cotton mill lodges or reservoirs were utilised. This stands on a surviving building amidst the desolation of Mumps in Oldham and points up towards Garden St and Bell St where there once stood Paradise Mills and its associated reservoirs and so this sign may relate to something similar.
This fine building, almost a lone survivor now amidst the desolation of Mumps, was once home to the Mumps Bazaar, an early 'department' store.
