I stumbled across this somewhat surreal scene in Downtown LA. I think it was some kind of training exercise.
Hops are the female flowers of the hop species H. lupulus; as a main flavor ingredient in beer, H. lupulus is widely cultivated for use by the brewing industry.
Hop shoots grow very rapidly, and at the peak of growth can grow 20 to 50 centimetres per week. Hop bines climb by wrapping clockwise around anything within reach, and individual bines typically grow between 2 to 15 metres depending on what is available to grow on. When the hop bines run out of material to climb, horizontal shoots sprout between the leaves of the main stem to form a network of stems wound round each other.
Hop gardens consist of a regular arrangement of poles interconnected by wires. Every spring, the farmers add vertical wire ropes that are used by the hop plants for climbing. Here you can see how this is done with the help of three persons in a turret.

I am not done with my favorite abandoned house yet! Next project is a night shooting there with my flickr buddy Rajesh! Please check his stream, he has cool shots of this house too.
For the little history, this house was first built in 1854, and was known as "Tyersall House". In 1860, a Malay sultan took over the property and the house was demolished. The new house, Istana Woodneuk ("istana" means "palace" in Malay) was built in 1890 and completed 2 years later. In 1905, it was badly burnt because of faulty electrical wiring. This house has been abandoned since 1907.
Please check the whole Tyersall House Set.

I saw this as a possible series from the salvage yard -- the stripped away wiring from the old rusty doors. I tought this was pretty "different" and photo worthy.

How anything electrical works in many parts of India defies logic. Complex entanglements of electrical wires hanging somehow on the utility poles in many of the areas I saw seemed to be the norm. How any of this works is anybody's guess. Tragically, there are over 10,000 electrocution deaths in India every year. (www.counterview.net/2017/09/electrocution-in-india-kills-...)
Fresh from EMD, CP 7055 is being set up for service at St. Paul, MN, after being delivered the previous afternoon.
I could never fathom the wondrous wiring I saw in Chinese streets, as I'd never seen the like in any other country up until that time. Consequently I took any number of photos, and made movies following the maze of wires I saw beside the roads I travelled. Now that I've travelled further afield, I know this chaotic system of wiring is quite common across second and third world countries.

Very dark here ... this is illuminated with five pops of a flash bounced off the wall and ceiling behind/above the camera.
