All sorts of #toxic materials are released into the #atmosphere when buildings and their contents #burn. It's why one sees urban #firefighters donning breathing apparatus. #Wildlands adjacent to the Los Angeles basin also contain #mercury and #lead in #soil and litter layers, deposited over many years from #air #pollution generated by vehicles and industries. #Wildfires often emit these heavy metals.

In general, I try to keep my Kpop comments on the positive side, as negativity can be be needlessly upsetting for some and just tiresome for others.

However, today is one of those days where I have to get something off my chest. I was so disappointed by "Burn". Is this really a version of the Loona track that has supposedly been sitting unreleased since 2019? It sounds like a so so B side to me. Maybe possibly it will grow on me - I do like the funky instrumental - but I feel I'm grasping at straws here.

All I will say about the outfits is that I find them hideous.

As a Kpop fan, it can be difficult to reconcile one's love for a group with critical honesty.

"Over 50 years ago, NASA was able to get its Saturn V, a rocket nearly as large as Starship, to fly without ever having a failed launch over its 13-launch, six-year operational lifespan. This was a rocket designed with computers less powerful than a Casio watch, built with far less accurate techniques and materials, with check systems and procedures infinitely less sophisticated than anything today. Yet, engineers were able to ensure it never had a launch failure, even during testing.

"Technologically speaking, the Saturn V was a caveman rocket, yet it was infinitely more useful and reliable than the high-tech Starship."

Outcast - Collage

So, in relation to my post last Friday, and as I usually do, I'd post some test shots or trials in the making of the main shot. This time, though, I'm doing it a bit differently, by posting a collage of a sequence of shots. These 10 shots were shot successively for the duration of the burning of the matchsticks, until the flame was gone. These shots here were edited in terms of basic exposure adjustments and maybe white balance, but nothing else; compared to the original shot that I've posted last week, which was heavily edited to equalize the light levels as well as remove the burn marks (which was almost a disaster!) that you can see here on the left of the matchsticks. These burn marks in the foam were caused by the mini-torch or flame I've used to light the matchsticks all at once.

Concert in a forest! Fir-trees!

Fir trees. And forest. Concert music in a forest. It is all around summer weather. Warm. And sometimes a little to refreshing small wind to blow. And scene made of wood. Concert in a forest. There are lots of trees. A small field. And, it is a music concert in this place.
