The Tug Atlantic Ash is a specific, modern Canadian escort tug, built in 2024, used for ship assistance, part of a pair with the Atlantic Maple, joining the J.D. Irving fleet for port operations in Eastern Canada, featuring powerful Rastar 3200 series design for maneuvering large vessels.
Prompt: create an ultra-realistic digital fine art rendering of the tugboat Atlantic Ash in a stormy river environment. Preserve the vessel’s exact structure, proportions, colors, markings, and perspective. Replace the calm water and clear sky with dramatic early-evening storm clouds and rough, choppy waves surrounding the tugboat. Remove all visible shoreline, land, and distant ships. Maintain the original camera angle and wide panoramic horizontal framing while enhancing scale and atmospheric depth. Match lighting to an overcast pre-storm mood with directional highlights reflecting on wet surfaces. Ensure natural integration without noise, grain, halos, or filters. Output one 4K-resolution horizontal image with all unmentioned details preserved exactly.
This digital fine art was created using OpenAI Sora AI and Photoshop

Resurrecting an old song lyric. Let us hope that our scientists can resurrect the ash tree after our business-types, lawyers and politicians have done their best to destroy it. How exactly do we expect to live in this country without our world-tree?
Ash
An ash-tree spreads called Yggdrasill,
High-standing, soaked and shining,
And from her drip the dews of dawn
Fate’s flux from wells refining.
Three maidens come there, three all-knowing,
From the lake which licks the tree;
One is Fated, one is Future -
These their names- the third: Must-Be.
They scribe their laws, they steer the lives
Of fettered slaves, sons of the free.
Kormt and Ormt, Kerlaugar rivers:
Thor wades each day their waters wide
When he goes to watch and judge,
The Yggdrasill ash at his side.
The bridge afire, burnt with flames,
The waters boil, and woe betide!
Glad and Golden go with Glassy,
Silvertuft and Skeidbrimir,
Goldtuft, Lightfoot, Gone and Gleaming,
The Æsir’s horses, and Sinir:
These they ride to sit as judges,
And Yggdrasill is standing near.
Three roots grow in three directions
Beneath the ground from Yggdrasill;
One for the dead, one for the living
One for frost-giants, growing still.
Ratatosk the running squirrel,
Scampers over Yggdrasill;
He drags a message to the Dragon
Each day: it is the Eagle’s will
Four Harts there are, with heads thrown back,
Four Harts who browse her highest boughs:
Dain is one, and one Dvalin,
One Duneyr, one Durathror.
More serpents sleep ‘neath Yggdrasill
Than any fool could ever fight:
Grafvitnir’s minions, Goin and Moin
Grabak black, Grafvollud white,
Ofnir, Svafnir, odious serpents
Yggdrasill’s bare branches bite.
Yggdrasill she groans in anguish
More than any man can know:
Harts bite her branches, mould makes marks,
And Nidhogg bites her from below.
Yggdrasill, she stands and shudders!
The great tree groans, the giant grins,
Down roads to hell they run, in horror,
Devoured by fire- demon’s kin!
Song lyric by Giles Watson, 2001. A paraphrase of the Poetic Edda: ‘The Seeress’s Prophecy’, 19-20, 47; ‘Grimnir’s Sayings’, 29-35.
Warren, Connecticut. Ash trees are having a rough time of it these days, there's a blight that's killing some of them off and we've lost two big ones to it in the past five years. However, the ones we have left are doing well and this leaf clearly shows the transition of a green leaf turning yellow from the outer edges in toward the veins.

I recently decided to do the rebuild of my old Evil Dead Lego Ash that I built years ago. Thanks to Smokebelch's help on the torso he used in his awesome custom: www.flickr.com/photos/smokebelch/3616912100/ I was able to finish mine. I went for a different head and hair piece, but most of this figure was made using Speed Racer minifig parts.
The head is from the Grey Ghost minifig as I liked that expression the best. I believe the left arm came from a Lord of the Rings figure but I have NO idea who the hair belonged to. I got it alone off eBay and the listing was just for a "Black Lego Hair" so that's that.
The chainsaw is based on the original I made seen here: www.flickr.com/photos/28614123@N07/3151651374/in/set-7215... This new one I had planned out some time ago as a replacement. It's just a red 1X1 brick with the T handle on the side.Like on my original, I modded it by removing the peg on the top and carefully sanding and polishing the end and then drilling the peg hole for the bar to peg into. I shortened the chainsaw bars peg to the bare minimum length and then using a toothpick I carefully dribbled drops of glue inside to keep the bar in place. Unlike the original where there was a peg on one side, the disc on the side that mimics the pull-start was sanded down and had to be glued on and on the far side, a 1X1 black tile was sanded down VERY thin and glued on to be the exhaust. Nice thing about this setup is that the saw requires no special tricks to get onto his arm. The standard Lego minifig hand fits inside PERFECTLY. Additionally the handle on top means the saw can be hand held easily.
Only other detail I added was my original vinyl back holster. Only need to make the shotgun which I plan to use a Brickarms sawed off double barrel as a base.
My poor Ash figure, he doesn't get much camera time because he has very little articulation and always has fists

Prickly Ash - Zanthoxylum americanum - Medicinal
PARTS USED
Bark, berries.
USES
The prickly ash was initially used by the native North Americans as a medication to seek relief from toothache as well as cure rheumatism. During the 19th century, people in the United States used the prickly ash to induce the circulatory system. Later, it was also found to be helpful in treating arthritis and used it widely to cure the disorder. Between 1820 and 1926, the prickly ash bark was listed in the Pharmacopoeia of the United States (the official body that sets the standards for all prescription and over-the-counter medicines and other health care products manufactured or sold in the US).
Prickly Ash Bark may be used in a manner that is similar to Cayenne, although it is slower in its actions. Any sign of poor circulation is thought to benefit by the use of this herb, including chilblains, leg cramps, varicose veins and varicose ulcers. Incidentally, most herbalists in the West considered the prickly ash as the main medication for treating arthritic and rheumatic problems. In addition to these therapeutic qualities of the prickly ash, the bark of the tree also helps in inducing flow of blood to the excruciating and stiff joints. By doing so, the prickly ash helps in providing additional oxygen and nourishments to the affected area. At the same time, it also helps in removing the waste materials from that particular region of the body.
The prickly ash is a beneficial medication for treating intermittent claudication (cramping pains) and Raynaud’s disease as it enhances the blood circulation in both conditions. This is crucial for the two conditions, which are known to narrow down the arteries in the affected limbs and prevent adequate blood flow to the hand and leg muscles.
The other therapeutic uses of the prickly ash include its application to treat disorders such as the dry mouth, tooth decay and toxic shock syndrome or circulatory failures caused by toxins. In addition, the prickly ash or medications prepared with the bark or berries of the tree are useful in relieving gas, curing diarrhea and toning up or neutralizing the digestive system. Externally, prickly ash is also applied to cure leg ulcers and insistent pelvic inflammatory disorder.
It is interesting to note that many Native American tribes along the eastern coast of the continent held the prickly ash in high esteem for its usefulness in treating disorders such as stomach upsets, painful throats, throbbing muscles and skin infections. In addition, the prickly ash bark was used by them to induce the secretion of saliva and cure various other ailments. During the end of the 19th century, eclectic doctors (physicians who chose the best or preferred medication from a variety of sources) practicing herbal medicine in the United States carried on with the conventional use of the prickly ash as the key medication to treat digestive disorders, reinforce the nervous system as well as cure cholera. At the same time, herbalists intensively used the bark of prickly ash to treat rheumatic conditions. Considered to be an alternative in traditional herbal medication, the prickly ash is known to improve the body’s aptitude to combat as well as recover from all kinds of physical problems.
USUAL DOSAGE
Prickly ash may be used internally both as an infusion and tincture. Basically, the prickly ash is used internally. However, there are situations when it is used externally as a poultice.
Infusion: To prepare an infusion with the prickly ash, add approximately one to two teaspoons of the tree’s bark to one cup of boiling water and allow the substance to permeate for around 10 to 15 minutes. The infusion may be drunk three times daily for desired results.
Tincture: Two to four ml of the tincture prepared with the prickly ash bark may be taken thrice every day.

Ash Wednesday Memorial Cairn at Panmure Victoria - A monument dedicated to the victims and devastation caused by the Ash Wednesday fires of 1983.
The Ash Wednesday bushfires, were a series of bushfires that occurred in south-eastern Australia on 16 February 1983, which was Ash Wednesday in the Christian calendar. Within twelve hours, more than 180 fires fanned by winds of up to 110 km/h (68 mph) caused widespread destruction across the states of Victoria and South Australia.Years of severe drought and extreme weather combined to create one of Australia's worst fire days in a century. The fires became the deadliest bush fire in Australian history, until the Black Saturday bushfires in 2009.
In Victoria, 47 people died, while in South Australia there were 28 deaths. This included 14 CFA and 3 CFS volunteer fire-fighters who died across both states that day
