The top of Dallas’ Reunion Tower resembles a giant steel dandelion seed head rising into the clear blue sky over North Texas.

Wrapped up the first half of my Tasmania holiday — the solo exploring leg. Five days, thirty beaches, and roughly a thousand photos. Will be a while sorting through all those when I get back! Hopefully there will be a few keepers. The skies were either completely clouded over or crystal clear and sunny , not ideal, but nature’s way of reminding me that she’s the boss of beach photography lighting.
It’s been bitterly cold — think single digits, wind howling across empty beaches kind of freezing. I even considered swapping my shorts for trackies a few times. Considered. 😉
Now it’s back to being social with the family. Kicked off this morning with a mountain bike ride in Fern Tree (a suburb in the hills above Hobart). It was 0.1°C with a feels-like temp of -9.9°C. I’m not saying it was cold, but I’m pretty sure my face tried to leave my head.
Heading to Dark MOFO tomorrow night - Hobart’s eccentric midwinter festival of art, music, food, black-clad locals sipping mulled wine under red lights , and all things wonderfully weird. Can’t wait to try a Squidlipop, yes they are a real thing 😋
In the meantime, here’s a quick one from Day 1: Steels Beach at Scamander on Tassie’s northeast coast. Please forgive the noise, I’m travelling light without access to proper editing gear (read: no denoise wizardry).
Hope everyone’s keeping warm and inspired!
Waterscape 46/100 in 2025
One of several stormy days in S. Wales recently. This is looking across Swansea Bay towards Port Talbot steelworks shortly after sunrise. The light across the bay changes every second on days like this.
Port Talbot remains the largest steelworks in the UK and one of the largest in Europe.
1993 35mm film shot of the pit lake at the former Hill Annex open pit iron mine in Calumet, Minnesota on the Mesabi Iron Range. Sometimes referred to as the "Grand Canyon of the North," the site is now Hill Annex Mine State Park.
The mine operated from 1913 to 1978, and according to a sign at the entrance to the park, the ore mined here was so pure that it could be sent to eastern steel mills with very little processing. By 1950, most of the high grade ore was gone and production decreased over the years until the operation was shut down in 1978. During its active life, the mine shipped 63 million tons of iron ore. It was the sixth largest producer in Minnesota.
The mine was sold to the Iron Range Resources and Rehabilitation Board (IRRRB) for $1 when it closed, and the IRRRB created a museum and a tour route in order to share its rich history. The Minnesota State Legislature turned the site into a state park in 1988. The park normally offers daily tours, including a fossil hunt. Not sure about right now in 2020.
Note: This photo has been on Flickr for a while, but I just gave her a major "face lift" and re-uploaded her via the "Replace" function.

The Mannesmann building on the Rhine banks. The building is one of the first modern German high-rise buildings and was the administration building of the Mannesmann Group. The sculpture in front of the house is symbolic of the company's history as a large German steel company and the emerging period of the German Wirtschaftswunder after World War 2, even with it’s used material steel.
This is from a few years ago, we all have so many photo's in our archives that never see the light of day and this is one of mine.
Remaining stacks of the Bethlehem Steel plant, now surrounded by a park. The lighted walkway is normally open to the public but, alas, wasn't when we were there.
Bethlehem Steel was one of the largest producers of steel in its heyday. It was founded in the mid-19th century, prospered for a while in the railroad boom, and then branched into shipbuilding, where it supplied its steel for the Navy, in particular the (in)famous USS Maine. It later went into shipbuilding business, constructing as much as 20% of the Navy fleet during World War II. The company also supplied steel for the Golden Gate bridge. Most steel production stopped in the 1980-ies and the company was dissolved in 2003. [paraphrased from Wikipedia]
