My offering for today comes from deep down in my archives. This is a fisherman mending his nets, in Sicily, in 1982.

Mein Beitrag für heute stammt aus den Tiefen meines Archivs. Es handelt sich um einen Fischer, der 1982 in Sizilien seine Netze flickt.

October ridge walk, Regicides Trail, West Rock State Park, Woodbridge, Connecticut. October 21, 2024, 1:53 PM.

#hiking #photography #outdoors #landscapephotography #nature #Connecticut #autumn #October #forest #autumnvibes #mountains

Beneath a deep blue cloudless sky we are walking along the crest of a mountain through a sun-drenched forest of hardwoods ablaze in dazzling golds, yellows and oranges. The forest floor is a liberally strewn with boulders and stones and clusters of golden brown grass. This is all softened by a colorful blanket of freshly fallen leaves. Through the trees we can see a valley several hundred feet below with a large pond, more autumn forest and a few buildings.

Colorful retreating clouds sunset, Woodtick Recreation Area, Scoville Reservoir, Wolcott, Connecticut. November 25, 2019, 4:28 PM.

We are standing on the shore of a lake. A line of tall trees of varying heights runs across a narrow peninsula which stands between us and the rest of the lake. There is a low ridge behind them across the lake. Trees, peninsula and ridge are all silhouetted against the sunset. The sky is cloudy, but clearing along the western horizon. There is a patch of gold where the sun is setting. The bottoms of the clouds covering most of the sky are painted pink and blue violet. Trees and sky are reflected in the slightly rippled waters of the small cove in front of us.

"Black Start" Power Plant, Belgium - Part 2: Control room

Though officially closed around 2010, the control room remained eerily pristine when I visited a few years ago. The computer terminals were still live, and the lights remained on.

Since its closure, the plant appears to be maintained in a state of readiness, likely serving as a permanent contingency plan for national grid emergencies. It has since been demolished.

An abandoned 1970s control room inside a Belgian power plant, with long consoles of instruments and monitors. The room appears preserved.

A vintage power plant control room shows a large console with two phones and numerous controls, leading to a wall panel.

✈️ 🚂 🚗 Planes, Trains and Automobiles (and a cable car!) 🚡

Old cars taken for one last drive and dumped in forests. Cable cars left in silent stations. Soviet-era planes, once gate guardians to old air bases, now just an out-of-place curiosity. Huge rusting steam trains languishing in old collapsing depots.
