For this gentle and relaxing photowalk in my district, Lyon, France, I brought along my French TLR SEMFLEX Standard 3.5 camera (see below for details) loaded with a never-tried yet film Svema FOTO 100 made in Ukraine. The backing paper is black with white numbering and signaling symbols are easy to read across the small red window of my SEMFLEX.
For all the frames, my SEMFLEX was equipped with the original SEMFLEX squared shade hood a SEMFLEX yellow filter x2. The film was exposed for 50 ISO to compensate the light absorption of the yellow filter. Metering was done using a Minolta Autometer III equipped with a 10° finder for selective measures privileging the shadow areas or an opale dome for incident light integration.

___________
*** ** PARC DE LA CERISAIE, WHOSE NAME COMES FROM THE PRESENCE, OLD, OF A CHERRY ORCHARD ALREADY BELONGS TO THE CITY OF LYON: SINCE 1976.
Previously owned by the Gillet family, precursors of silk dyeing at the beginning of the 20th century, the park and the Villa built in 1911 by the architect Joseph Folléa communicated at the time directly with their factory installed on the banks of the Saône. In the 60s, their vast industrial empire merged with the Rhône-Poulenc group of which Renaud Gillet was president from 1973 to 1979.
Very quickly, the City of Lyon chose to open this park to the people of Lyon and to direct its vocation towards the Arts. Thus, during the 2nd and 3rd sculpture symposiums of 1980 and 1982 the park hosted many works. Some of them are still there.
The villa, renovated in 1986, also became a place dedicated to the Arts. Initially, it was the headquarters of the Fonds Régional d'Art Contemporain (FRAC), the organization supporting creation, before it was transferred to the Institut d'Art Contemporain de Villeurbanne.
Today, the villa houses three cultural institutions: La Villa Gillet, which defines itself as a Contemporary Research Unit and is interested in all forms of culture (literature, human, political and social sciences, history, or contemporary arts), the Agence Rhône-Alpes pour le Livre et la Documentation (ARALD) whose objective is to promote the culture of writing and activities related to books, and the Groupe Musiques Vivantes de Lyon which works for the creation and diffusion of acoustic music.
_______________
After the view #12 exposed, the film was fully rolled to the taking spool and was developed in a Paterson tank with a spiral adapted to the 120-format film. 500 mL of Adox Adonal (Agfa Rodinal) developer were prepared at the dilution 1+25 and the film processed for 7 min at 20°C. The first view was shifted by about two frames leading to only 10 views on the film. This is clearly due to a quality problem. The backing paper was improperly positioned during the spooling of the film.
Digitizing of the remaining 10 frames, was made using a Sony A7 camera (ILCE-7, 24MP) held on a Minolta vertical macro stative device and adapted to a Minolta MD Macro lens 1:3.5 f=50mm. The light source was a LED panel (approx. 4x5') CineStill Cine-lite fitted with film holder "Lobster" to maintain flat the 70mm films.
The RAW files obtained were inverted within LR and edited to the final jpeg pictures without intermediate file. They are presented either as printed files with frame or the full size JPEG together with some documentary smartphone pictures..
About the camera and lenses :
My French Semflex TLR year 1959-1960 is equipped with triplet 1/3.5 f=75mm SOM Berthiot lenses as descripted bellow.
The SEM company ("Société des Etablissements Modernes de Mécanique") was founded in France by Paul Royet in 1946, in the small city of Aurec near Saint-Etienne (Loire). The SEM camera's was known essentially for the TLR Semflex that were a great commercial success in France until the 70's. The camera's are constructed around an injected aluminum alloy chassis, very resistant and rigid permitting precise optical alignments. The focusing mechanism is made of a cam system like the Rolleiflex giving an accurate and smooth focusing. SEM constructed their own shutters called Orec with 5 leaves capable of the 1/400s to 1s with B.
Semflex received in majority French optics Berthiot with 3 or 4 lenses (Tessar type). Some camera's were also mounted with Angénieux lenses.
Semflex were trusted TLR camera's used by amateurs and for professional purposes. From 1949 to 1976, 171.000 Semflex were produced in many different types and versions.
My Semflex in a middle grade version Standard 3.5 type-10 (1959-1960). It was the last version mounted with the 3-lens SOM Berthiot 1:3.5 f=75mm. I got the camera with set of accessories and several documents including the user manual of the Semflex Standard 4.5 versions. The accessories include a leather SEM ever-ready bag, a Semflex push-on shade hood, a Semflex push-on yellow filter x2 in its original box, and close-focusing lenses. The 1D one is constructed with a prism for the finder lens that compensates the parallax in the zone 1m to 0.5m.
The decorative ring around each lenses can also receive push-on accessories in 36mm diameter as the FOCA or Leitz 36mm filter series. I adapted two protective lens caps from Kodak film canister snapped covers.
OK, this one is a little silly and is edging rather close to altered books (don't want to go there). I got a free desk calendar in the mail. I thought about putting it into the recycling bin (I prefer electronic calendars), but then I started carving it with sharp knives. It's not art. It's an experiment. The borders of the pages are carved into different levels but it is difficult to convey the 3D effect in a photo.

How Your Septic System Works
Septic systems are underground wastewater treatment structures, commonly used in rural areas in Harwood, North Dakota without centralized sewer systems. They use a combination of nature and proven technology to treat wastewater from household plumbing produced by bathrooms, kitchen drains, and laundry.
A typical septic system consists of a septic tank and a drainfield, or soil absorption field.
The septic tank digests organic matter and separates floatable matter (e.g., oils and grease) and solids from the wastewater. Soil-based systems discharge the liquid (known as effluent) from the septic tank into a series of perforated pipes buried in a leach field, leaching chambers, or other special units designed to slowly release the effluent into the soil or surface water.
Alternative systems use pumps or gravity to help septic tank effluent trickle through sand, organic matter (e.g., peat and sawdust), constructed wetlands, or other media to remove or neutralize pollutants like disease-causing pathogens, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other contaminants. Some alternative systems are designed to evaporate wastewater or disinfect it before it is discharged to the soil or surface waters.
Harwood septic services
Specifically, this is the way a standard septic system functions:
All water flows from your home from the main water drainage pipe right into a septic tank.
The septic tank is usually a buried, water-tight container commonly made from concrete, fiberglass, or polyethylene. Its task is usually to keep the wastewater for enough time to permit solids to settle to the bottom part of the tank forming sludge, as the oil and grease floats up to the top of the tank as scum.
Storage space and a T-shaped outlet stop the sludge and scum from departing the tank and going in to the drainfield.
The liquid wastewater (effluent) then leaves the tank into your drainfield.
The drain field is usually a shallow, protected, excavation produced in unsaturated dirt. Pre treated wastewater is released through pipes on to porous areas that permit wastewater to separate out though the dirt. The dirt will accept, treats, and disperses… wastewater as it percolates throughout the dirt, eventually releasing to groundwater.
In the event the drainfield is beyond capacity with an excessive amount of liquid, it will eventually overflow, creating sewage to flow to the ground surface area or generate backups in bathrooms.
Lastly, the wastewater percolates in to the dirt, naturally eliminating dangerous coliform bacteria, viruses and nutrients. Coliform bacteria is a small grouping of bacteria mainly inhabiting the digestive tract of human beings or any other warm-blooded creatures. It becomes an indication of human being fecal contaminants.
Have you got a septic system?
You might already know you possess a septic system. If you don’t know, listed here are tell-tale symptoms that you simply should do:
You utilize well water.
The waterline entering your house doesn’t have a meter.
You display a “$.00 Sewage Amount Charged” on your own water invoice or house government tax bill.
Others who live nearby possess a septic system.
How to locate your septic system
After you have established that there is a septic system, you will find it by:
Searching for your home or office’s plat drawing.
Examining your lawn for lids and manhole covers.
Getting in contact with a septic technician or pumper to assist you locating it.
Malfunction signs and symptoms: Pay attention to the indicators!
A bad smell isn’t necessarily the very first indication of a broken septic system. Contact a septic specialist if you see any of these:
Wastewater backing up into your bathroom show or any drains.
Vibrant green, mushy lawn around the drain field even throughout dry climate.
Standing water or muddy dirt all around your septic system or perhaps in your basement.
A powerful smell near the septic tank and drain field.

Dear Dairy
Today I read that Bovine Milk might reduce the absorption of antioxidants from Blueberries when consumed at the same time as the Blueberries. I also read that Bovine milk might NOT prevent the absorption of antioxidants from Black tea when consumed with the Black tea.
So there's that.
And Dear Dairy, during one recent very frivolous moment of weakness I actually purchased a new book (pictured above) to replace Bill McKibben's "Hope, Human and Wild" which I finally finished reading 15 years after it was given to me as birthday gift.........15 years ago:-) ( Bill 350.org ) twitter.com/billmckibben
M.A.C. Farrant continues to buoy us up with her new book, "The World Afloat".
A Thin book of non-rhyming, "miniatures". Each one about a page or two long. It seems perfect for the Reading Room - each tiny tale a very moving experience..........
Maybe I should start writing book reviews........:-)
A Fomapan Action 400 black-and-white film to test the effect a the special Foca filter "Dyma" produced in France in the 50's.
The filter is called "Dyma" due to the presence of neodymium in the glass giving an unusual absorption by bands in the visible spectrum. In particulier blue and yellow color ans more absorbed than the rest of the spectrum. The filter existed in two different versions with the coefficient x2.5 or 3.5. Here the 42mm push-on Foca Dyma filter used is a x 3.5.
As a consequence, I exposed the Foma 400 for 80 ISO using a Minolta Autometer III with a 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadow areas. I used my FOCA camera PF2B year 1956 and its normal Oplar lens1:2.8 f=5cm equipped for all the views with the Dyma filter and a Genaco metal shade hood.
Typical settings during the session : 1/100s f/8 to f/11.

After exposure, the film was processed using Adox Adonal (Agfa Rodinal) developer at dilution 1+25, 20°C for 6 min.
The film was then digitalized using a Sony A7 body adapted to a Minolta Auto Bellows III and a Minolta Slide Duplicator using a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5 at a reproduction ratio of 1:1. The reproduced RAW files obtained were processed in LR prior the the final JPEG editions.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg.
About the camera and the lens:
The Foca type PF2B (PF for "Petit Format") was constructed in France by the company "Optique & Precision de Levallois" (OPL) starting from 1947. It was manufactured in the Chateaudun OPL factory, route de Jallans, France, in 1956 among a late series of the PF2B. The factory, constructed in 1938, is still at the same place under the name of SAFRAN now producing precision devices for aerospace appliances.
The camera is equipped with the collapsible OPLAR lens (a Tessar formula) 1:2.8 f=5cm. The focal shutter of the PF2B has timing of 1/1000, 1/500, 1/200, 1/100, 1/50 and 1/25s plus the B pose. A slow exposure device below 1/25s could be installed by the aftermarket service and was installed basically for the FOCA PF3 and Foca Universel.

Those who go looking for evidence of increasing self-absorption seem to find it everywhere these days. Inflated egos are apparently smiling in the selfies people snap, self-obsession woven into their compulsive online sharing. This picture means a great deal to me. While I have written and captured bits and pieces about myself in the past, I’ve yet to appreciably express who I am, what I’ve done, or where I see myself going, both in regard to work and life in general, in the future.
Currently, I am working as an Intern @ Firmware Options Development and Rework Station Laboratory, Lexmark Research and Development Corporation (LRDC) in Cebu City, Philippines. In taking this snap I not only want to share more about myself and what I am in my soon professional career but in the process I hope to learn more about myself and what I truly aim to accomplish in all aspects of life. So I took this photo in order that I can have a memory snippet to look back on.

Once carbohydrates are digested into simple sugars, glucose, fructose and galactose, they are absorbed into the bloodstream. Fiber is not digested and travels to the colon.
Diagram created by Christine Dobrowolski.
High rainfall caused floods in many areas, where soil absorption was poor and vegetation limited due to previous year’s drought.

Wetlands are biodiversity rich sensitive ecosystems that harbor hundreds of plants, insects, birds and other animals uniquely adapted to their wetland mode of life.They are crucial to maintain the regional water balance through ground water recharge and absorption of flood waters and also serve as the rice bowl of developing countries. Nevertheless, wetlands play immense role in the socio-economic and livelihood aspects of local communities living around the wetland. In India, rural communities depend wetland for livelihood through farming, mat making etc; for food through fishing and hunting; for roof thatching by collection of reeds and palm leaf ; for firewood; for fodder etc. However, these wetlands are now under a threat of conversion for big industrial and real estate projects, change in lifestyle of local community, over extraction of resources by increased population, pollution,waste dumping, eutrophication and pesticide farming. There are three important wetlands in the Puducherry region namely Oussudu, Bahour and Kaliveli that provide important resources for local communities and also are a home to tens of thousands of migratory birds that visit the Puducherry region in winter. These wetlands have been acknowledged as Important Bird Areas(IBAs) by IBCN, since many of these birds are represented in more than 1% of their global population.
The recent threat on wetlands of Puducherry is more due to the change in life style of local community living around these wetlands. The younger generation is not much dependent on wetland resources, The younger and modern generation has lost the compassion and bonding to the wetland which their forefathers maintained through sustainable livelihood practices. This has resulted in a change in attitude and perception of the community towards unsustainable farming and resource extraction, game hunting, intensive fishing and reclamation, ultimately resulting in shrinking of wetland area and loss of biodiversity at an alarming pace. Local community is leaving the traditional farming practices for more fertilizer and pesticide based farming; fish stock is depleted using invasive Gill nets. Since Puducherry is fast developing region with rapidly growing commercial tourism and industrial establishments, these wetlands are under the threat of reclamation for resort construction and other commercial establishments. Poaching for a sport as well as open selling of birds including the threatened species is common. School drop-out are noticed to get attracted to such practices to make easy money as well as hunting for a sport with peers. With time, they may grow into expert hunters who will depend on poaching as the main source of income for the family. There are many wetland awareness programs organized by Forest Department as well as NGOs targeting school kids and educated community through workshops. School drop-outs are often not specially targeted by any of such programs and often not brought under the ambit of such programs. This gap needs to be addressed for local conservation efforts to be fully effective. We have chosen birds as the umbrella species whose conservation will in turn protect the lake and biodiversity as a whole. Birds are attractive and beautiful; ,which may easily get compassion from drop-out kids if guided appropriately. With proper efforts, the poachers can be turned to protectors and expert tour guides to facilitate ecotourism.
