Think that’s one of the things I like about macro, you can make something mundane look more interesting!
Cast iron pans with flat bottoms came into use when cooking stoves appeared in the mid 1800's. Before that, kettles and pots were the main utensils in open fireplaces, ovens and pits.
11:52 Shadows – The opposite of light is dark, the absence of light is shadow. Interpret this however you like.
I worked on this theme for quite some time, but without much light coming from outside, I failed over and over again. So I went into my archives, where I have a large selection of all the images just waiting to be posted, and most probably never will:) I took this at the North Algodones Dunes Wilderness Area on our last trip to California, and loved the rich shadows created by the dunes, that kept changing shape as the wind blew.
I've been really busy the last few days but will try to catch up with you this weekend.
Shoreline remains of wooden moulds used to cast concrete blocks. These were used to build the Churchill Barriers on Orkney. The wood has weathered from exposure to sea water over the decade and the steel hooks and rings used to move them by crane are slowly rusting away.
Worth expanding this photo to see the texture and the spiders web!
THE ANIMAL CRUSADE
One day all the sties and burrows opened
And out came the cave-bear the mammoth the seafaring
cormorant, that poetic diving bird, the white-headed vulture
the rock-goat from the mountains, the sea unicorn
You could see by their snouts that they meant business
You could hear by their flapping wings and their burr
They had thrown off their humility, cast down their yoke
once imposed by Adam’s secretive hero
the one with the garden
They were, to cut a long story short, fed up
And the morals of the shotgun had been cast off
the flayed skin of flight had faded
The viper walked tall and the swine wore polaroid glasses
that lent him pleasant looks. The beavers
gnawed down telegraph poles and so cut off any form of communication
Predictably enough, the lion led the way black black
as black gold and gold-coloured as deep black
It was a magnificent procession, blinding to the eye
At the back the unicorn reported as missing, the dodo the passenger pigeon
as well as various viruses and the elated spermatozoids
So the holy animals
travelled the holy world
And do you know how or why?
Oh no, they just went travelling, they didn’t have a flag!
Sometimes ripped up laws out of sheer happiness
or bled a city dry
Now and then trampled on a Jesus
or struck down a prophet or a princess
They were beginning to get tired
Haste no longer necessary
The one day’s deities left the fire

The 1858 cast iron "Little Cary"building located at 620 Broadway in the NoHo (an acronym for North of Houston St) section of downtown Manhattan.It's labeled as the "little Cary Building"because it's a near copy of a building (also a cast iron structure) built two years before it on 105 Chambers St called by that name.Cast iron façades was an early invention back then and it was used on buildings to make them look like masonry,and they were cheaper than cement.If you zoom in you can see the metal nuts still fastened to the wall and the faux masonry bricks,and even some signs of rust.The six-story,palazzo like structure had to quickly be put up because another building where new inventions from the 1858 World's Fair were being displayed had burned down,some newer items were shown at this new one.That was another reason for the cast iron facade on the new building,because the material was considered "fire proof"daytoninmanhattan.blogspot.com/2012/01/1858-cast-iron-no-...
The downfall of a man is definitely not the end of life. Therefore, our glory is not in never falling but rising up after each fall.

While barns used to dominate farm sites throughout the countryside, they had a whole supporting cast of other buildings. Sometimes they were small while other times there were quite large buildings that sheltered hogs, sheep or cattle. Hard to tell what this intriguing building was but I suspect at least at one time it held chickens. On our farm, you could put chickens almost anywhere and they would be happy.
For the Paint It Black project on Flickr Friday, this is where my mind went the bottom of the skillet for this frame.

This shot shows the shadow of some peeling lettering on a shop window cast onto a letter L that was part of the window display.
Seems the wind has knocked out my main internet, so will catch up extra slowly :D But when do I ever catch up quickly?
Wishing all a fine weekend ahead...
Another autumn day. Sun shined through trees and cast lights on the ground when I hiked down from Mt Kearsarge. Phenomenally trees, branches and ground were lit up. Took to use iPhone 17.
