Tomorrow’s the Big day! I’m going to Didcott Power Station to take photos with the large format I borrowed from uni. Luckily, I found this photographer that I found agesss ago and then couldn’t remember his name. Soo, voila. I give you Juergen Nefzger! This is how I want to approach the Power Plant tomorrow, incorporating it into everyday landscapes in Didcott. I just don’t want it to be too similar.. The main difference between the photos above and what will be my photos, is that Juergen’s are NUCLEAR power plants. Mine are coal fired.

His photos may also be way cooler than mine.

nationalgeographicdaily: Cocooned Trees, PakistanPhoto: Russell Watkins An unexpected side effect of the 2010 flooding in parts of Sindh, Pakistan, was that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters; because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water took so long to recede, many trees became cocooned in spiderwebs. People in the area had never seen this phenomenon before, but they also reported that there were fewer mosquitoes than they would have expected, given the amount of standing water that was left. Not being bitten by mosquitoes was one small blessing for people that had lost everything in the floods.
