I was asked to post a flexy picture. Here it is. I've been moving boxes all day!

Brooklyn, New York. January 1, 2010.

Strong light pollution.

No tracking.

That technic fig arm pin just had to fit in something. Works pretty well, and only with 3L friction pins.

I took this in the Rischart Cafe with my iPhone as a pano shot -- but this guy was reaching for a pastry as I did, resulting in his arm appearing extended (and his face, as well).

Clifton Arm, North Oxford Canal

Those trees in the background are leaning like that, believe it or not. The mountainside falls away very steeply in that spot, the creek becomes too rugged to follow.

 

This composition isn't particularly riveting, I think when I took this I was both admiring the color of the iron-rich rock and trying somehow to show the character of the creek and what made it such a nice place to bring the boys. I did my best to remind them that anyplace in a mountain stream with green on it, can be treacherously slippery! Test, test, test!

 

To wit, years later, in a very benign spot after a fun but very warm hike, my youngest son stripped down to cool off in some shallow water, and he slipped in the water. In the act of bracing himself, he fractured his wrist. Summer vacation had just started, he spent the rest of that summer wearing a bright blue lobster claw-like cover on his arm anytime he wanted to go swimming, to protect his cast. We sent him to grandma's for a few weeks of R&R and his hygiene and cast-protection skills inevitably suffered after endless days of swimming and eventually the cast started oozing what one of his uncles referred to as "arm cheese".

Covered in the marks of some troubled times, I tried not to capture her face for obvious reasons...

Crash and Spur on Cat 3, waiting to be armed by two ordies. The arming of forward-firing ordnance, i.e. guns and missiles, is the very last step in the launch sequence before going into tension.

My favorite of the two arms, I included wrist-mounted weapons, and a poseable hand. I think the greebles look pretty nice here. : )

How many times, dear arm,

have you put yourself in danger

for my sake? How many times

have you found your way home

through the dark, or saved me from falling?

I didn’t have to ask you twice.

 

Poor arm! I broke you once.

I burnt you once. More than once

I cursed your weakness

at arm-wrestling and swimming,

but I was proud of your tan

when I rolled up my sleeve at school.

 

You aren’t so handsome now,

but you soldier on, one of the faithful

in my band of volunteers,

my noble standard bearer

in the war within a war,

the daily clash of purposes.

 

Dear arm, hold still for me now,

while I make you suffer once more.

Be brave, while the surgeon

creates an ‘access fistula’

that will wash my blood for me.

It seems you must save my life as usual.

The Crew Access Arm and White Room for Boeing's CST-100 Starliner are attached to the Crew Access Tower at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station’s Space Launch Complex 41. The arm will serve as the connection that astronauts will walk through prior to boarding the Starliner spacecraft when stacked atop a United Launch Alliance Atlas V rocket. This installation completes the major construction of the first new Crew Access Tower to be built at the Cape since the Apollo era. Under a Commercial Crew Transportation Capability contract with NASA, Boeing’s Starliner system will be certified by NASA's Commercial Crew Program to fly crews to and from the International Space Station.
