Sharper than I thought. A nice alternative to the Leica-branded Summicron.

They're cheeky little so-and-so's! Barney's been helping me out with the hens recently. I've never encountered the problem before but we had an outbreak of red mites in our hen house a few weeks back. Not the little spider mites you sometimes see under stones, these red mites are really horrible pests and in hot weather their numbers can sky rocket in days - you can get a massive infestation extremely quickly. They live in cracks inside the hen house during the day and come out at night to feed off the chickens. In large numbers can cause severe anaemia and even death :( Obviously, I started treating the house and the chickens as soon as I realised we had a problem but it takes a while to fully control red mites and in the meantime the chickens have understandably become reluctant to go to bed at night.
They've been roosting all over the garden - under bushes, on the ground between the shed and the fence, in flowerpots (yes, really!), on tarpaulin, under garden furniture... To my surprise Barney's taken it upon himself to sniff and flush out the hideaways. I didn't have to ask. That first night, he stuck his head in the hen house before I shut the door - not something he'd done before - took a good sniff and walked off. Next moment, just as I found one was missing, there was a furious squawk. I turned to see the black hen fluttering out from under a bush, Barney standing behind, grinning. He usually tries quite hard to avoid the chickens and never deliberately disturbs them - but he seemed to understand she shouldn't be out there at night. Every night since then, if any hens try roosting outside their house, Barney's been helping me finding them. He can get into spaces I can't and sniffs them out much faster than I can spot them by just looking.
I've also found he makes a pretty good chicken herder! Barn's never been trained on stock but does know "walk on", "further out", "back off", "stop" and what pointing means. He's proved pretty invaluable at balancing my movements and blocking off escape routes as I usher them to bed. He will very gently encourage them into the hen house. I've been impressed by his ability to judge for himself how hard to push - he doesn't panic the hens but they move better for Barney than for me. I give some directions but mostly leave it to him. It has been pretty cool seeing him naturally take to "work" :) I think his evening job may have finished though now, as I seem to have beaten the mites and the hens are going to bed by themselves... Still nice to know, if I need help, my "sheepdog" is also a good chickendog!

In 2018, Stantec’s new home rose tall in the centre of Edmonton’s bustling arena district. With the architecture and engineering handled by professionals from across Stantec. Standing tall at 69 storeys (251 metres), not only has Stantec Tower elevated Edmonton’s reputation as home to the tallest structure in the city, but also outgrown all other high-rises in West of Toronto, Canada.

Or: 10,315 days
German Unity Day, 3rd of October
3rd of October is our National Holiday, because on that day in 1990 Germany was reunified. 28 years of German reunification and freedom vs. the 28 years (10,315 days) the Wall seperated Berlin, from 13th of August 1961 to 9th of November 1989, the day and year the Berlin Wall came down in the wake of the GDR's peaceful revolution. Which makes 2018 a rather special year in our most recent history. 28 | 28
This was taken in July on a wonderful walk with Sabine.R, marionrosengarten, --Conrad-N-- and H. Roebke. We sort of stumbled upon this late night event. Later, when I had done some research, I learned that this was a special event to celebrate this special year, a daily event / muli-media show (from June, 25th to Oct., 3rd 2018) about the history of German parliamentarialism and the Reichstag building.
The White Crosses you can see at the fence are a memorial dedicated to those who died there trying to overcome the Wall to flee to the western part of Berlin. This spot on the bank of the river spree belonged to West Berlin, while the opposite bank of the Spree was already a part of East Berlin. So near, and yet so far, at least between 1961 and 1989. I'm glad those days are over.
Der Tag der Deutschen Einheit im Jahr 2018 ist ein ganz besonderer, denn er markiert nicht nur 28 Jahre Wiedervereinigung, sondern es waren auch 28 Jahre (10.315 Tage) Berliner Mauer bis zu ihrem Fall im November 1989. Somit ist Deutschland in diesem Jahr genau so lange wiedervereinigt, wie die Mauer Berlin geteilt hatte. Schon bemerkenswert, oder? Zumal sich wohl kaum einer noch 1988 hatte vorstellen können, dass die Mauer überhaupt je fallen und Deutschland bereits 1990 wiedervereinigt sein würde.
Dies ist ein Foto vom Juli, als Abschluss des wunderbaren Fotowalks mit Sabine.R, marionrosengarten, --Conrad-N-- und H. Roebke aufgenommen. Von der Veranstaltung dort wurden wir echt überrascht, später habe ich herausgefunden, dass dies eine tägliche (vom 25.06. bis 03.10.2018) multi-mediale Präsentation anlässlich dieses besonderen Jahres in unserer jüngeren Geschichte war: "Dem Deutschen Volke. Eine parlamentarische Spurensuche. Vom Reichstag zum Bundestag."
Die Weißen Kreuze am Zaun zum Spreeufer sind ein Mahnmal für alle diejenigen, die an dieser Stelle beim Versuch, in den Berliner Westteil zu gelangen, umgekommen sind. Wir befanden uns auf der ehemaligen Westseite, während bereits das gegenüberliegende Ufer zu Ost-Berlin gehörte. So nah und doch so fern, jedenfalls zwischen 1961 und 1989.

De NVBS Oliebollenrit wordt vandaag vanuit Amersfoort naar Hilversum/Crailoo en over het Ponlijntje gereden met de NS20 'Kameel'. De eerste ritten in een fraai geladeerd bevroren landschap. Net voor de aankomst op het laatste stuk van het Pon-raccordement brak ook de zon wat door.

A rare move to retrieve sand cars that are being stored on former Erie Mining Co. property didn't go quite as planned so the Keenan Switch job heads for their namesake yard empty handed passing under County Road 666 and the Polymet offices.
