Contranyms, “Song Sharks”, and A Plant That Swings A Machete
I bring you the finest Internet reading every week, in my Linkfest
Welcome to my weekly Linkfest — the best stuff I could find for you after a week of scavenging the endless beaches of the Internet! (I’ve done 60 of these so far.)
To begin …
1) 🌊 Trevor Pottelberg’s photos of Lake Erie’s ferocious waves
The Great Lakes are truly tempestuous. I grew up cottaging on the shores of Lake Ontario, in a region known for such terrible weather — and pincer formations that produce massive doppler-effect-driven waves — that it is known as the “Sophiasburg Triangle”, an absolute graveyard of ships.
Trevor Pottelberg documents this howling kinetic violence in his amazing series on Lake Erie. As Colossal writes …
Facing winds up to 60 miles per hour, he frames massive waves as they emerge in dramatic outbursts, leaving sprays of icy mist and ripples in their wake. The monumental swells are energetic and immensely strong, showcasing the formidable power of nature.
You can see more of that series on his Pottelberg’s site, and buy prints too!
